Reincarnation | Tensura Fanfic

Vacation

"Hm? Spending the summer with y'all?" Rimuru stopped the popsicle that's just a few inch away from his mouth once he heard the idea Benimaru just suggested to him.

Benimaru nodded as he watched Rimuru take a bite from his popsicle, he's about to say something but a little shriek made him stopped as he spun around out of reflex.

"Oh my, did you get a frostbite my lady?" Shuna questioned as she bent her knees to get a better sight of Ririna who is covering her mouth with one hand while her other hand are holding a popsicle with bite mark on it.

"You are one hundred years too early to eat your ice cream like me dearest sister" Rimuru commented, Benimaru spun around again and are met with Rimuru with a stick hanging out his mouth. Ririna puff out her cheeks before quickly throw her gaze up the sky.

Benimaru let out a cough "Lord Rimuru and Lady Ririna are planning on staying here right?" Rimuru nodded as Benimaru continued "our father would also like to thank my lord in person, so he told us to invite my lord and lady Ririna"

"Does that means Ririna can spend more time with lady Shuna?" Ririna's sudden appearance behind his legs caused Rimuru to almost jump out in shock.

"Ririna where you even came from?!"

"Can we go please?" Ririna completely ignored him as she start to tuck on Rimuru's pants.

'This brat... She dared to ignore me and then just throw those sad puppy eyes...'

Rimuru message his forehead as he let out a sigh "i guess we don't have any choice then"

"We thank you for your help my lord" The old man with red hair with the roots of his hair already turned gray bowed down before they even fully entered the wooden entrance.

Rimuru waved his hand as he forced a smile which caused his face to turn wrinkled "no no! i didn't do anything really" His voice cracks at the first word he said "uh please raise your head"

The older man did as told while he signalled at the door and move to the side "i will need to thank you formally inside our own house"

"Oh uh.. Sorry for intruding then?" The man chuckled as he straighten his posture "you are not intruding my lord, i'm inviting you"

"Oh yeah... Haha..." He began to scratch the back of his head without realizing.

'I never interacted with real nobles except for that sus king... I don't remember them to be this formal'

"Lady Ririna, how about i show you the fish pond" Shuna bent down to minimalize their height difference. She then give her hand to Ririna which are happily accepted by the younger one.

"Can Ririna also feed the fish??"

"Why of course" Shion barged into their conversation.

"We can also cook some of the fish if lady Ririna want to!" Shion quickly take Ririna's free hand before she dragged her which caused Shuna to also get effected by this action.

'Shuna, Shion! why would you two take away the only thing i'm familiar with here?!'

"My lord" The old man called out, he's a few steps away from the big door which are already being hold open by another ogre which are keeping his gaze on the ground.

"Coming!" Rimuru did a tiny sprint, Benimaru tailing calmly behind him

'This place..' he turned his head left and right as he enter the room just a few steps behind the older man 'it reminded me of old houses in Japan..' He look down and see tatami covering the wooden floor 'even tatami'

He stopped just in time when he realized the old man had sat himself down, Rimuru did the same thing, not long he hear someone else sitting behind him.

The older ogre bowed his head "once again i, Rufus express my gratitude Lord Rimuru, please tell me anything you wished for, i will try my very best to fulfill it"

"Really don't mind it" He waved his hand infront of his face 'So his name is rufus? If i'm not wrong Rufus mean red hair in latin right?? Wait... Does latin even exist here??'

Rimuru coughed two times once he saw that Rufus aren't moving even an inch "uh how about this then, is there any dungeon around?"

"Now no worries, i have your back" Rimuru gave a light pat on Benimaru's back "i mean, this should be pretty easy, we even have Ririna on worse case scenario"

Benimaru gulped and finally let out a sigh after what it seemed like a few minutes "so no protection charm?"

"Nope"

"No potion?"

"Nah, growth charm. That's it." Rimuru raise his hand showing a necklace with a green gem attached to it, Benimaru took it "seriously just take it easy, worst it can get is losing your arm anyway, and even if that happened as long Ririna is around she can heal it"

"That happened?"

"Oh plenty of time" Benimaru once again feel chill running down his spine.

"Why so tense anyway, you had entered the dungeon before right?" He questioned while he tilted his head.

'I'm pretty sure he's around level 20 now'

"With a protection charm and with a full party and not fighting the dungeon boss"

Benimaru still remembered how Rimuru asked to borrow the dungeon and he himself to his father. He even asked permission to slain the dungeon boss.

"Ehh, you will be fine" Rimuru let out a big yawn, he then elbowed Benimaru's waist "c'mon now big dude, if you can keep up with me then the boss should be a no brainer"

"My lord since when i managed to keep up with you?" Benimaru shook his head, all the wrinkles on his face dissapeared, as a thin line appeared "well still, i can't disappoint my Lord"

Rimuru glanced down to Ririna right next to him as she gave her a wide smile, he nod his head "now that's my samurai! Now let's get going! Ay!"

He punched the air "ay!!" Ririna followed his step, he glanced to Benimaru who didn't do the same, realizing he's being stared at Benimaru flinched, he slowly raised his hand up the air "ay..."

'Messing around with this hot dude is somehow entertaining... Wait that sounded gay... Ehem! Anyway, i'm almost one hundred percent sure he ain't clearing this dungeon, but hey some pranks here and there won't hurt right? Even if it does hurt we have Ririna, sorry Benimaru, i also need some entertainment'
