Tempest daily life

Questioned

"Rimuru-sama! Elder sister has asked us to meet her!" (Mjormilles)

She greeted us with a serious expression, so I expected her to scold me again. But then, why are  the three of us walking in the middle of the city?

"Rimuru-sama. Are you sure I can be here?" (Mjormilles)

"Meaning?" (Rimuru)

"I mean... you and Elder Sister are big shots..." (Mjormilles)

"What are you talking about? You are also a big shot, mister Minister of Finance of the Jura Tempest Federation" (Rimuru)

"But, wouldn't it be a problem for Elder Sister?" (Mjormilles)

"That? Don't worry, she has been using a camouflage spell since a while ago, no one will notice she is the Celestial Emperor" (Rimuru)

Mjormilles has calmed down but he made a valid point. El-tan and I are using some perception disrupting spell in order to avoid attention from the crowd.

"Rimu-chi, Gard! Let's go in there! A room has been reserved and mother is waiting" (Elmesia)

El-tan pointed a high class restaurant, even within Tempest parameters. But that was not the reason I was panicked inside.

"By mother do you mean her" (Mjormilles)

"Mmm? I am sure you have heard about her" (Elmesia)

I took a deep breath and asked what I feared.

"El-tan" (Rimuru)

"Rimu-chi?" (Elmesia)

"Is our meeting with only Silvia-san?" (Rimuru)

"Well, the plan was only getting you, but Gard can also come" (Elmesia)

"No, that's not what I mean-" (Rimuru)

"We need to have a long talk about many things, so I made a reservation" (Elmesia)

El-tan's smile sent shivers to my back. I didn't want to go, since the scary one over there were not only Silvia-san or El-tan, but also...

With that combination, I have a slight idea about what do they want to talk about... 

I have avoided the topic for too long... let's try to do that this time too. But before that, if we are going to talk about that...

"Mjormilles-kun!" (Rimuru)

"Yes?" (Mjormilles)

"Probably, what we will talk there is not the normal stuff, but something about the Tenma war... so you can choose to leave or stay" (Rimuru)

"Wise move. I would recommend Gard to leave too" (Elmesia)

"Understood. I wish you luck, Rimuru-sama" Mjormilles left. He still remembered being dragged to the primordial naming scolding from a while ago and didn't want to get involved in that kind of stuff again.

"Well, then... I should also take a leave-" (Rimuru)

"Rimu-chi, the food here is really delicious and I really worked hard to get the reservation" (Elmesia)

"I see, I hope you enjoy it" (Rimuru)

"You are coming" (Elmesia)

"I don't want to" (Rimuru)

"Don't be such a kid" (Elmesia)

"No. El-tan! Listen to me!" (Rimuru)

It was not avail and she dragged me to the room. Without any more choices, I steeled my heart and faced them.
