                              Rimuru's POV

It has been a long time since I have been allowed to leave heavens palace. I have done much in the background to help my friends and allies. I couldn't go myself since I'm band from doing so until now at least. Yep, today is the day I can leave. I am making my final preparations to go see Veldora again. I have also finished building the white and rainbow numbers. With these two new army's I will have a more secure position in the future. Never again will I have to worry about not having enough personnel to fight against multiple awakened people like before in the Tenma war. Now my people and allies will be safe from future threats.

Rimuru- "Raphael you and the others will stay here for a while until I get our base nation up and running. You will continue to train here until I call for you all again."

Raphael- "Yes my lord, I'll make sure we all are up to snuff when the time comes. We will wait with anticipation for you to call us again."

Rimuru- "It should be around a year or two at most so it won't be long. I also can't wait to see my old friends again."

After that I teleported to the cave where Veldora is sealed. But before I went to see him me and Ciel had a plan to act on first.

Rimuru- "Ciel I know you think I forgot about my promise to you but I haven't at all. I hope you found a candidate worthy of our adoption."

Ciel- "Yes dear I've found a perfect candidate for our needs. This candidate can also help us awaken the patrons who will need the gifts from the harvest festival to acquire their full power."

Rimuru- "About that can't we just recreate a fake harvest festival instead? I don't like the idea of making my child go through such a traumatic experience. Is there a way Ciel my lovely."

Ciel- "It is possible but the amount of souls required to create a fake festival through a skill is less efficient than the normal method."

Rimuru- "How much less Ciel?"

Ciel- "At around 150% more than normal dear."

Rimuru- "We will go with it we should have enough from smooching off of Guy to get free souls from him. So are the preparations ready then?"

Ciel- "Yes dear they are. Now beginning the summoning of a replacement for your past self and absorbing the soul of your past self to strengthen your soul."

After she said that I felt like my soul had gotten less compressed as the best way to describe the feeling. I know my soul's capacity was nearing the limit for skills so now I got room for leeway on future skill usage. After that feeling a slime started to manifest around near me and it was conscious of its surroundings too. I approached it with a smile knowing that ahh this is my true first child with Ciel.

Rimuru- "So Ciel,  what do we call her."

                           Sasha's POV

My life as far as I can remember has been hard. When I was first born my hospital was bombed. My parents both died there but I was lucky enough with the other kids to have not been targeted. I was soon sent to an orphanage and lived most of my life there. The other kids didn't like me much and often discriminated against me for missing an arm. Always had a missing limb but little did I know I'd lose a second one after being hit in traffic. It was crushed by a large truck after he was tired at the wheel. Ran me over but I was lucky to have survived. After that I started to develop an immunodeficiency disease after I ate the food at the orphanage. The doctor believed that one of the caretakers had some their blood get in the food to infect me but had no proof of it. I soon died from being taken hostage while me and a few others went to a store to use the lucky finds of coins to get candy. The cops tried to talk down the man but he used me as the first hostage to make a point he was willing to kill the others used me as an example. After that I just felt sad that I got to never experience much in my short life.
