(Old ver. Discontinued) A Dream in the Faraway Past

5. Nostalgic Memories

(Rimuru's Perspective)

Right now, Ciel-san and I are making our way out of the sealed cave

In the original time-line, I met those goblins around 40 days after I ate Veldora

The reason I wanted to keep Veldora in my imaginary space for 2 years is to prevent any anomalies from happening

I want this world to follow the same course of events as the previous one

However, that already becomes harder since I am going to be together with Ciel-san, physically

Well, what I want to avoid are not changes in general, but unexpected events that shouldn't happen or other events happening earlier than they should

Also, if possible, I want to save that named goblin warrior that died before I met the goblins originally

Estimating the time in which the named warrior died is quite easy

The direwolves that will come here originate from the Nasca Namrium Ulmeria United Easter Empire, which I'm going to call the empire for convenience's sake

The distance from here to there is about 50 kilometers

So, with the average speed of a direwolf, which is about 41.6 meters per second if they use magic

So they do about 149.76 kilometers per hour, so they will arrive in approximately around 20 days if we account for stamina loss and breaks for food and water

The only reason that they take so much time to come here is due to them using a very long route, which goes from the empire and around the sealed cave

After they arrive, until they find the goblin village, it will take them a long time since it is quite deep in the forest

So yea, about 33? Maybe 34

Somewhere around there

If we add in the days of shock because of Veldora's disappearance, it becomes around 36 days

Also, in a month, the starved orcs will start to appear in lake Siss

(A/N : These are my own assumptions. It is not stated in the novels so I just put the first number that popped into my head here)

Which is not too surprising, since they were walking every day without any breaks

Although, they were only walking, that's why it took a whole month

And that about covers it for the current situation

As I was thinking that I called out

"Hey, Ciel-san?"

"What is it, master?" She replies

"Well, I was just wondering if we could walk in order to find the exit"

"But Master, why not use Space-Time domination to teleport ourselves outside?" She says while looking at me with a quizzical look

"Since it sounds more fun to do it this way. No particular reason" I say

Then, while still holding her hand, we kept exploring the cave

We passed a lot of landmarks I recognized

A huge patch of hipokute herbs and the lake I thought I was going to drown in

I still remember that floaty sensation when I was in water for the first time, only to realize that I didn't need to breathe

The memories of me devouring the hipokute herbs for days on end were vividly recorded in my mind

They are silly memories indeed
