"Bestie!" Milim searched for Rimuru in his office.

"Rimuru-sama is at a meeting in the Empire with Emperor Masayuki" Haruna explained

Milim gave up. Today was not the day. Getting in the middle of Rimuru's work was never a good idea.

Let's go to the labyrinth. Veldora and Ramiris should be free.

"I am busy with an experiment. The results are almost there, so right now I can't play" was Ramiris unexpected answer.

Veldora and Dino too were reluctant to leave the experiment unfinished.

Milim was once again without a playmate. Returning to her workplace was a no. Frey was probably to scold her, and being scolded without playing was a no.

On the upper floors of the labyrinth.

"I am sorry, Milim-sama. Right now, we are doing team training, so can we leave individual training for later" Gobta broke out in a cold sweat, but also had a valid argument which Milim could not refuse.

At least, let's eat something tasty. Thinking so, Milim made her way to the dining room.

"Hi! Nice to see you here, Milim-sama!" two girls approached Milim at the entry.

"Carrera!" Milim was happy to see her other bestie

"Are you free? Do you wanna play with me?" and was a little desperate

"Sure! Espirit, take care of that mater!" Carrera dissed her work to her subordinate and went to the labyrinth with Milim.

Why me? It's your work! Espirit wanted to complain, but she knew to keep her mouth shut.

Rimuru would be angry if they played in the middle of the city. The labyrinth should be fine. Thinking so, the two went to a place without many people in the labyrinth to 'play' together. 

Just the other day, Rimuru scolded them and prohibited them to play without supervision. Frey was also mad because of the destruction they made the other day.

To make things clear, Milim and Carrera combined did not double the destruction around them. It increased exponentially, which gave many headaches to their chaperons.

"I made an amazing new move just the other day!" Carrera happily showed a new bombarding method.

"Oooh! It's looks like one of Guy's techniques! You are combining your Ultimate Skill with nuclear magic, right?" Milim was amazed

"As expected! That's right! It's not fair for Rouge to be the only one with this kind of power!" Carrera replied with a naughty smile

"Then, let me show you something I made" Milim concentrated her magicules at one point

"Drago sphere!"

"Ohhh! Amazing! As expected from a demon lord!" (Carrera)

Their show time continued for a little while. 

"If that's the case, I shall show you my best move!" Carrera declared

"WAHAHAHAHA! Can you even cope with me? Very well, to answer your determination, I shall show you the difference between us!" said Milim as prepared a powerful shot.

............

This is bad, really bad. If let alone, those idiots will destroy the whole labyrinth! Rimuru panicked.

It started around a minute ago. Rimuru was still in the Eastern Empire, having a good time with Masayuki.

'Rimuru! Do something! They are destroying my labyrinth!' an emergency thought communication came from Ramiris

'Eh?! Who?' Rimuru barely reacted

'Milim! Also Carrera!' (Ramiris)

"Eh?" Weren't they forbidden to play together alone? (Rimuru)

<<Master, they were playing for around thirty minutes, I think it's about time to stop them>>

'You knew!' Rimuru complained

<<... you should go>>

"Sigh. I am sorry, Masayuki, there is an emergency at Tempest, so I must go really quick" (Rimuru)

"Eh? Sure. Good luck?" Masayuki answered the sudden request

"See ya" (Rimuru)

Rimuru teleported immediately to the floor with the two problem children playing. What awaited him were two big moves about to collide. The explosion would be enough to wipe a great part, if not all the labyrinth.

Without any other options, Rimuru jumped at the place where the two attacks would collide and ate both, isolating them in his <Imaginary Space>.

"What are you doing? Do you want to destroy the place!" Rimuru scolded them as soon as the attacks disappeared

"Ri-Rimuru! There is a reason for this..." Milim's intuition told her she was in trouble.

"Ho? Which is?" Rimuru was unfaced

"Emmm... what was it? Carrera?" (Milim)

"I am sorry, my lord" Carrera apologized without making excuses

"Ehhh! Why?" (Milim)

Milim didn't expect Carrera to apologize right away. But Carrera, as a demon, had an unyielding loyalty, and making excuses to her lord was intolerable.

"Explain" (Rimuru)

"We were playing. And... we lost a little of restrain..." Carrera shyly explained

"Sigh. It can't be helped" Rimuru's anger subdued at his subordinate's honest confession

"Please next time you wanna do something call someone else to make a place or barrier enough to withhold your powers" Rimuru was about to let the matter slide, but

"WAHAHAHAHA! As expected of my bestie! We wanna keep playing, do you mind helping us!" (Milim)

"You should reflect a little, Milim!" Rimuru's annoyance raised again due to his friend's lack of awareness.

"I will call Frey to pick you up. Play time is over." (Rimuru)

"Ehh? No-" (Milim)

"Play time is over, Milim" (Rimuru)

"Urgh... Rimuru you meanie!" said Milim as she left with teary eyes.

Rimuru returned to the Empire after warning Carrera about not destroying the labyrinth. Sometime later, Frey came to pick up her lord.
