Tensura: The Epic Tale of Rimuru Tempest!

Chapter 42: Goblins Under Command.

"Rimuru POV:"

Well, that trip was interesting, and his reaction was priceless. I still start to laugh remembering his reaction. Hahaha.

Well, putting that aside, I think it's time to start the real work. Okay, so the first step is making goblins my subordinates and becoming their leader.

But first,

>>Ciel<<

<<Yes, Master?>>

>>I want to tell you something, but before that, come outside in your body.<<

<<Okay.>>

As I instructed her to come out from our souls and inhabit her body once again, she did so precisely.

Soon, a portal opened, and she emerged from it like a goddess descending from heaven.

"Yes, Master? What do you want to say?" she asked me as she stepped out of the portal, which then disappeared.

"Well, the thing is, I want you to be with me during my journey of making our Kingdom," I told her, and she seemed a bit confused.

"What do you mean, Master? Aren't we always together everywhere we go?" she asked me in a confused voice, tilting her head to one side.

How cute!!!!! I absolutely need to record this!!!!!

Rewind time!!!!! Rewind time!!!!!!

*Time Rewinded*

"Well, the thing is, I want you to be with me during my journey of making our Kingdom," I told her again, but this time she just looked at me flatly.

"??????"

"Sigh* Seriously, Master, why did you rewind time? Sigh*" she asked me, sighing.

How could I forget that we are equals???Nothing affects her, just like me! How could I forget that?

Is it because I got blinded by Ciel's cuteness? Yes, definitely, that's the case!!!

I need to do something before my brain shuts down because of her charm and cuteness!!!!

"Well... um... eto... Hahaha, I guess I accidentally did that. Hahaha," I said awkwardly, laughing.

I bet that she is totally not convinced.

And yep, she is not convinced.

"Don't lie to me, Master. You know that we can't lie to each other, right?" Yep, she got me there.

Guess what? It seems that I don't have any choice but to spill the beans.

"Sigh. I just wanted to record you when you were looking so cute," I gave up and told her.

"You rewound time just for that? Sigh. You really are a child, huh," she said, smiling, I guess?

"You do know that you can record it again because we are always together, right?" she continued, all the while smiling.

How could I forget that? Really, her cuteness is making my brain shut down.

And her smile-it's... it's illegal!!

"See, I can tell just by looking at you that you didn't think of that. How childish you are. But I like that part of you the most, so it's fine. Also, you are looking so cute right now," she said after looking at my dumbstruck face.

Then she looked at me and,

*Smooch*

She snuck a kiss on me!
