Red Primordial Rimuru

2: I am The Red Primordial

Rimuru: 'Ugh, Ciel, what did you do?'

Ciel: 'This was the result of the [Reincarnation Procedures] enacted after Master wished to escape paperwork.'

Rimuru: 'Ah, I remember now.'

Rimuru: 'Ciel what the heck! That was so sudden! Also I didn't know I could do something like this!'

Ciel: 'Master never asked.'

Rimuru: 'So where am I?'

Ciel: 'The dawn of time, when the primordials were created.'

Rimuru: 'The dawn of- wait, so does that mean Veldanava is alive right now?'

Ciel: 'Correct, would master like to teleport to Veldanava?'

Rimuru: 'No don't instantly teleport to him! I don't actually belong in this time so he might blast me out of existence can't he?.'

Ciel: 'Master is currently stronger than Veldanava due to possessing [Turn Null], which Veldanava has expended to create the Cardinal World so it is highly unlikely. However the [Reincarnation Procedure] I enacted will ensure that you will belong in this timeline.'

Rimuru: 'I see...'

Rimuru: 'Well then I might as well look for the primordials.'

I then start to wander around the seemingly endless burning landscape, searching for primordials.

I wander for about an hour or so before spotting an individual tossing nuclear magic at other lesser demons, utterly obliterating them and wiping them off the demon realm. She created various craters around the area.

Rimuru: 'Ciel, is that Carrera?'

Ciel: 'That is correct, though currently she is unnamed and is referred to as the Yellow Primordial Jaune. She is also significantly weaker than master.'

Rimuru: 'I see, and are all my skills still usable?'

Ciel: 'Yes, alongside that, you possess the unique skill [Pride].'

Rimuru: 'What why do I have that skill?'

Ciel: 'Master has reincarnated as the red primordial Rouge, otherwise known to master as [Guy Crimson], and as his soul merged with master's, his skills are also transferred.'

Rimuru: 'We're going to talk after this. But for now, I'll use mostly Rouge's spells as to not raise suspicions of my strength.'

Ciel: 'Of course, master.'

Jaune spots Rimuru and starts to approach him.

Jaune: "Hmmm, hey you!"

Rimuru: "What? Me?"

Jaune: "Yes you, you seem strong. Fight me."

Rimuru: "I'm not into fighting weaklings that I can knock out in one punch."

Jaune: "Hoooo~ I'll teach you not to underestimate me!"

Jaune: "[Gravity Collapse]!"

I watch as Jaune launched nuclear magic towards me. I smirked and used:

Rimuru: "[Azathoth]!"

Jaune watches the spell she unleashed get absorbed by a black and empty void before seeing a barrage of fire lances and fireballs heading her way. She flies and dodges the attacks, blocking a few fireballs with her arms and chuckling through the smoke.

Jaune: "Hah! You seriously think these puny attacks will hurt me? Pathetic!"

However, as the smoke slowly lifted, she notices that her prey was out of sight.

Jaune: "Oh don't tell me you got scared and ran away-"

At that instant, a fist connected to Jaune's left cheek, as Rimuru punched her into one of the craters generated by Jaune.

Rimuru: "I was thinking of letting you live and retreat, but now that my pride's being questioned, I must refute your statement."

Rimuru stares at the fallen Jaune, and slowly approaches her as she crawls out of the crater.

Rimuru: "I wonder how you ever got the impression that you were stronger, if it's simply because you can kill lesser demons then your pride is much more inflated than mine, kukuku."

Jaune: "Oh shut up, it's not over yet!"

Jaune has a bruised face and her outfit has gotten dirty from the fall she took. She picked herself up from the ground and faced Rimuru once again.

Jaune: "So judging from your strength, you're a primordial too, aren't you?"

Rimuru: "That is correct, I am the red primordial Rouge."

~~~ Rimuru will be referred to as Rouge ~~~

Jaune: "Huh, not bad then, Rouge. Well, now I will put my all into this fight!"

Rouge: "Unfortunately I do not have the same intent, as I said before you're too weak for me to go all out."

Jaune: "Oh you really know how to piss someone off. I'll wipe that smirk off your face!"

Jaune readies her fists prepared to punch Rouge into oblivion. Rouge however widens his smirk into a grin as he folds his arms and waits for Jaune to attack.

Jaune, who couldn't stand Rouge being all lax during their fight immediately rushed off towards him, her right fist in position to slam into Rouge's 'arrogant' smile.

However, Rouge simply caught her fist without a care in the world and using fire magic, scorches her entire body into ashes. Rouge then scoffs and continues walking through the demon realm, glancing back at Jaune's ashes for a moment and looking up before sighing.
