Rimuru and William are now riding with a bunch of wolves and their respective goblin partners going to the dwarven kingdom, the wolves are going at 80kph. Rimuru was keeping himself fixed upon Ranga using his Sticky threads, but the wolves were too fast and so bits and pieces of his slime body were being taken away 

'AHHHHH!!!' Rimuru screamed

the goblins' heads were being pulled back meanwhile William —with his magically tea that appeared out of nowhere— sat calmly upon his wolf

'I'm a bit worried about how well they're holding up... but there's no way to hold a conversation at this speed' the smol slime says to himself but Great Sage answered "shall we use the skill: [THOUGHT COMMUNICATION] that you earned from the direwolves?" Great Sage suggested "oh, right I had that option. yeah let's do it" *hey! are you goblins doing alright?* the smol creature asked the goblins

"Rimuru-sama?" Rigur said out loud though no one managed to hear it *do not worry about us! after our evolution, we are no longer as fatigued by such rigorous activity!* he said also using [THOUGHT COMMUNICATION]

*ah, that's good* the slime said sighing in relief to himself *oh by the way, who was it that gave your older brother his name in the first place? did he evolve too?*

*yes, my lord but it was not to our current level* the goblin started. "years ago, he was named by lord gelmud an officer of the demon lord's army when they stopped by the village. he said that rigur would make a good follower one day*he continued

*ahh...*  'so naming causes evolution. but depending on who does the naming the amount of growth differs. I feel like there was a very important keyword in the story...'

*demon lord~?* William said with a smile

'DEMON LORD'S ARMY?! I SHOULD HAVE FIGURED THERE WOULD BE A BIG BAD GUY!! wait how traditional are we talking here? invading the humans, plotting world domination? if that's the case, I wonder which side I would fall on...?'

*I'd prefer you to not destroy humanity...* William said with a sweatdrop

'hmm? I didn't think you'd care that much for humans, William-kun' the slime said slightly surprised

*no, no I don't I just...uhh I like their food, yeah their food* he said with a small blue blush, so small you wouldn't even have noticed it, because yes, there is no other reason to like humans not at all, it's not because he has a crush on a certain past human who was now a slime, I mean who would have a crush on a slime? it's a slime for William's sake! he definitely does NOT have a crush on Rimuru... STOP ASKING!!! 

'hmmm, alright then' Rimuru said satisfied with the answer

'I don't think I need to say that I only care for humans because you used to be one' William thought to himself

the day turned to night as the wolves goblins slime and God had decided to set up camp for the night, they roasted some meat to eat

"gobta, you said you've been to the dwarf kingdom to do some trading before?" Rimuru was ignored by gobta who was focused on eating his piece of meat

"Gobta" William called to Gobta this time a bit more loudly

"y-y-yes my lord!" he said surprised at being called

"what is it like?" William asked

"um, w-well, the official name is "the armed nation of dwargon." the capital's a beautiful city built into an enormous cave" the little goblin said with a finger raised "and it's not just the dwarves there- I saw plenty of elves and humans, too."

'ELVES?!' Rimuru screamed in his thoughts with a blush

'what's so special about elves?' William said feeling a wee bit jealous...jealous? 'wait why would I feel jealous anyways?' William thought to himself 'wait, who thought I was jealous anyways?' William was confused on why the word came to his thoughts in the first place
