That time I failed as an Author and got reincarnated in Tensura

Chapter 68: Fate Paradox

3rd Pov

In the Jura Tempest federation, the ruler of the monster Rimuru Tempest looked up at the grayish sky.

Crack seemed to form with each passing moment, it was truly an apocalyptic sight.

Rimuru : (Raphael...what is happening?)

Raphael : (Notice : From all the records registered, this is what people have been calling the Great Tenma war, a 500 long cycle that began with the invasion of millions of angels.)

The slime's eyes narrowed as at the same time, the report of some goblin riders came in...the Eastern empire has sent an army.

Several airships of modest size and one larger, on top of that the Scorch dragon Velgrynd could be seen in her dragon form.

This was the imperial convoy, the heroic emperor was directly on the battlefield...

Because of that, Rimuru had to cut short the festival and held an emergency meeting.

Contrary to the joyful atmosphere they previously had, the meeting room was ice cold as silent tension threatened to explode.

Rimuru : Now that everyone is here, let's get straight to the point.

Taking his seat after observing the sky, Rimuru wasn't like his usual carefree self, the Falmuth war was still recent in his memory.

Now the Eastern empire was being a threat even greater than Falmuth...he didn't want to lose anyone like before.

Benimaru : The empire has sent quite the force toward our border...the confrontation is inevitable.

Rimuru : How much time before they reach us ?

Souei : At best in a few hours...it seems they have been preparing for this war for quite some time now.

The room grew quiet, such a thing was happening while they enjoyed a festival...even if it was sudden and unannounced, they still felt regretful.

Vesta : If I may, I have received some communication from another nation.

Now all the attention was on the scientific, he had a crystal ball of communication with him that displayed multiple reports from the west.

Vesta : Ruberios has engaged in a war on the northern ocean, they are at quite the disadvantage because of another incident, the hero Dawn Arceid is currently in the Holy void of Damargania fighting the Demon lord Dagruel.

The end of his sentence was followed by a heavy shake of the ground, a seemingly earthquake along the rising spike of two dreadful aura coming from the furthest west.

Rimuru : (Raphael ?!)

Raphael : (Notice : This is most likely the ongoing fight between Dawn and demon lord Dagruel.)

Rimuru : (Ruberios engaged in a full out war on two sides, the great Tenma war suddenly happening, the Eastern empire coming for us as well...what in the world is happening!)

The situation was getting more and more confusing as the second passed, it was hard to make a correct decision when everything broke at the same time.

Vesta : From this instant, we know for a fact that Dwargon and the Sorcery dynasty of Sarion are sending troops to support Ruberios.

Rimuru : I see...where is Milim by the way ? She suddenly left earlier.

This was something odd too, in the middle of the festivity...the so childish Milim grew serious and flew off without a word.
