8 parts Ongoing After so much time has passed, he finally gets to see her again...
Shizu has finally come home to Tempest! It's been two years since her death, but she has appeared to everyone once again. Granted, at her sides are two blue flames, she had not fully come back. However, she was able to give herself a phantom form that works just like a normal human body. Shizu can hear, taste, touch, smell and feel as if she were alive. It took so much time and effort, all made worth it again to be held by the people she grew to love. Especially with the one person that gave her so much in so little time. Or should she say "slime" that gave so much.
Rimuru couldn't have been more excited, overwhelmed and so very happy! His destiny one has returned to him! His beloved Shizu. He has never been very open about emotions he's feeling or felt. Not with any of his subordinates; he feels they need a strong leader to look up to. Yet... he always found his heartache when thinking and remembering her. With rare moments of him waking with a few tears shed. But now, Rimuru can finally be with someone who truly understands him. Someone to have and to hold forever.
The town is up in arms with the return of a great warrior! Especially the goblins, being how they were the ones to have first met her. All are excited and can't wait to hear the stories of when she and Lord Rimuru first meet at the beginning of this towns creation.
However... not all are as excited as they should. Seeing how Lord Rimuru has made it quite clear... One lady has always been in his heart 💙
