It's been 642 years since the Tenma War it ended in disaster Ivaraj destroyed all life none but Rimuru and Ciel remained but with the birth of a third entity Ivaraj was killed with the knowledge that he had the strength to protect everything he love...
I posted this because I thought the mix was surprisingly amazing
Gazel and his troops were met by Rimuru and a good amount of his subordinates Rimuru walked to meet Gazel Kaijin
Gazel: So you're Rimuru, the Boy of the Forest
Rimuru: Is that what they're calling me well I guess it's a pretty cool title so I don't mind what brings you here Hero King, Gazel, what business do you have in my forest
Gazel: I'll get straight to the point, you see, I'm here to determine your worth
Rimuru: Now what does that entail
Gazel: I'll judge you using nothing but the steel of my weapon, if you insist on boasting about being the Ruler of this forest it's up to me and my sword to put you in your place
Ciel: How insolent
Azrael: His place is obvious
These words angered a great many of the crowd but Rimuru put his hand up as a signal to calm themselves
Rimuru: Is that so, fine, Azrael I'll need my sword back for now
Azrael: . . . Right
Azrael tossed Rimuru the Blade of Tempest he caught it with ease
Rimuru: (Is she upset she doesn't have it temporarily it was basically a gift to her . . . no that's not it this feeling I'm getting for her I've never felt it from her that often it's . . . Hatred?)

Rimuru: (I can tell it's not just the fact that he's underestimating me so what could it be . . .)
Gazel: You shouldn't let your mind wander
Rimuru: Right I suppose I should give you my focus then
Treyni arrived to oversee the fight which allowed Gazel to acknowledge Rimuru as the ruler of the forest, the fight began, and naturally, Rimuru won and quickly Gazel's men were surprised Rimuru's subordinates looked at this as if the result was obvious Gazel couldn't help but laugh
Gazel: I can't believe you beat me so easily
Gazel sheathed his sword Rimuru did the same and tossed the blade back to Azrael she caught it with one hand and put it back on her hip
Gazel: Now that we've battled I know the truth you're a powerful yet respectable being I'm impressed you truly are a strong one
Rimuru: I'm glad I've earned your respect
Naturally, after this, they formed peaceful relations with Dwargon in which the topic of the name of the city would be decided
Rimuru: The name of this nation is something I've long decided it will be the Jura Tempest Empire
Ciel seemed a bit surprised that they would be given such a different name than usual
