Vampire and slime back in time [Rimuru X Luminous]

CH 11 | Frienemy and Copium

A.N/ Hello! Do you remember when I was updating every other day/twice a week? Why am I not doing that anymore? Because I'm not that passionate about this (I know your eyes numbed from reading that for the thousandth time. but meh) and also School! I have an exam almost every day! the bullshit?! Anyway, sorry for the slow update and the short chapters.

-------------------------------------------------

~Luminous~

As I woke from my short slumber, I looked at the blob railed between my arms. Unlike before, its form was more collected and didn't look like it was melting and breaking under its own weight.

Luminous: "So it worked..."

Reminded by the glimmer of hope that held me from falling away from sanity. The scene of it flashed back to my vision.

~Flash Back~

"I JUST WANT TO PROTECT HIM!!!"

『Notice. Requirement fulfilled. Unique Skill acquired: Protecter』

As the world linked itself to me, notifying me of what I just acquired, a flood of information installed itself in my brain, and the skill inscribed on my soul, I started to feel the moving magicules inside of the blob am holding.

Through the raging storm within my mind, one particular thing shone brightly through the chaos.

'『Life-giving Grace』... A sub-skill of [Protector] that allows the user to completely heal a person on the price of some of their life force and more or less all of their magicules once a day...'

I described it to myself just to be sure, to clear the fog in my mind of hesitation about what it could do.

Luminous: "It's my turn to save you! And... Thank you for staying alive..."

'The consequences seem harsh, but damn all of them! I don't care about the dangers anymore.'

Luminous: "I'm also sorry for my selfishness"

A.N/ some parts that were in the last chapter were skipped. They were omitted for the convenience of the Writer/Author as he (I) was too lazy to put all of those parts in and somehow make them work while staying the same as the last chapter with more parts that were hidden before. It was too finicky, hard, and annoying for the writer to give a damn about.

Though legally, it was for the ease of the readers. As repeating what was said before could prove annoying and needlessly stretch things on. So we (just me) Chose to only give the new and needed parts to the readers so they could understand more, and connect the dots by themselves.

(I dunno. Just thought it was funny so I put it here)

~End of flash back~

I now feel a bit better as I've gotten some rest. My vision still looked to the ocean-blue blob on my hands, I decided it was time to move again.

Before I stood up to move, I cuddled Rimuru, rubbing and caressing him with my hands. Even when walking, I was rubbing him with my hands and face.

Luminous: "I know that you won't love me... you won't accept as more than an acquaintance. I know that I missed up, that I stand no chance anymore. And I'm... fine... with that."

Luminous: "You won't want me to be this close, and... *blush* cuddling with you... but it's fine if you don't know..." (It sounded way better in my head. she isn't a yandere! I swear!)
