Looking at this world that was about to be destroyed, there was sothing about it that was more shocking than when my body had been torn in two.
It’s no wonder Beretta had asked for help.
……….
…….
…
I had absorbed the two pieces of the body and then went to the labyrinth to hear about the research results while I was away. That was when I realized that sothing was amiss.
Shinji had greeted most suspiciously.
When I interrogated him, he said that Veldora and the others had gone off to another world without permission.
They had used the Different Gate, which was still being worked on, and had been waiting for to leave.
Oh, dear. I thought.
They clearly wanted to be the first to find sothing new, so they could brag about it later.
I could see through them every ti.
As there was no point in waiting for them to return, I analyzed the remaining magic circle and tried to pinpoint their location.
Master Ciel was always ahead of .
I was not surprised. Just then, a ‘Thought Transmission’ arrived from Beretta.
‘Lord Rimuru. There is a problem. The two others are also with …’
Beretta said.
The timing was a little suspicious, but I didn’t ask.
He had co to for help and sounded very frantic.
It seed that Beretta had beco involved in their ss as well.
Stopping those two was a task too great for Beretta.
Had he waited for the right mont and then called secretly?
In any case…
“Shinji. It seems that they’re causing a lot of trouble over there. I’m going to go check on them. I’ll leave the rest to you!”
I told him.
As for Shinji, he was standing in front of the new researcher I had brought—Irina. He was sweating and making excuses about sothing… Well, it had nothing to do with .
His cheeks were flushed as well, but there was no point in thinking about that.
“What!? Lord Rimuru!? Yo-you’re really going to leave in this situation alone…!?”
Farewell, Shinji!
Sorry, but I can’t save you!!
You two enjoy your ti together.
Oh, he looks like he’s going to cry—well, he is crying.
In any case, I left Shinji there and used ‘Interdinsional Teleportation’ to go to where Beretta was.
I was greeted by Beretta and tried to ask him about what had happened.
However, it did not seem like we would have much ti.
“The truth is…”
Just as Beretta began, I felt that the world was starting to creak.
“Hey, hey! You’ve gone too far! Does Veldora not understand…”
“Uh, no, this isn’t Lord Verldora’s doing…”
“I’m sorry you had to put up with this, Beretta. All right. I’ll go and give him a good scolding!”
“What!?”
Ramiris as well–I said. And then I jumped towards Veldora and the others.
………
……
…
And so I beat Veldora with my paper fan…
Now, what to do?
“Guh!? Rimuru!? Why are you here!?”
“It’s not my fault! I just got mixed up in this ss because of Master!!”
Veldora was surprised while Ramiris wasted no ti in betraying him.
Of course, Ramiris always made excuses, and there was no mistaking that she was an accomplice.
Beretta seed like he had ant to cover for her a little, but there were limits to what you could do.
In any case, it was then that Beretta also teleported to our location.
“Pl-please wait, Lord Rimuru! You have it wrong. We were experinting with the magic circle and got caught in an accident!!”
Beretta said frantically as he ca after .
Hmm. An accident, huh?
Is there more to this story?
Or is he just making up excuses?
After hearing Beretta’s words, Veldora started to shout as if suddenly acquiring a will of his own.
“That’s exactly true, Rimuru. It is most hurtful that you always bla for everything. And how can you hit on the head like that so suddenly!”
He made a show of being angry and indignant, but his eyes looked oddly anxious.
That suggested he was at least sowhat ashad.
And Ramiris betrayed Veldora imdiately because she knew she had done sothing bad… It seed like a good ti to mislead them.
“I see. Sorry about that. I actually wanted to praise you for making such a wonderful magic circle… But since you say it was an accident, I guess it was just a coincidence that it turned out so well?”
So, what would be their reaction?
“That’s because of my research! It wasn’t an accident! It was all according to plan!”
“Ramiris!? We both did the research! I won’t forgive you for trying to steal all of the credit!!”
Idiots.
They took the bait too easily.
“…Lord Ramiris, Lord Veldora… That’s what you call a confession…”
Beretta muttered sadly.
“What!?”
They realized at the sa ti.
They let the cat out of the bag.
But Beretta was guilty too. He had tried to lighten the cri by saying it was an accident, but perhaps he should have discussed it with the others in advance.
Well, he may have had his reasons.
And…
“Well, it seems there are more pressing matters. And this really doesn’t seem like Veldora’s doing.”
I said as I looked towards the two Collapsers that were enlarging after sucking in energgy and matter from around them.
The two Collapsers were affecting each other and growing, and there was a single woman between them—the singularity of supergravity, a black hole that swallowed up everything.
“Why is this happening?”
“That’s what I want to know! Apparently, it’s called the Mobius System or sothing. That woman over there, Michelle; her power reactor caused it to go crazy. We were just trying to stop it!”
“Exactly. We’ve been desperately trying to stop the destruction of the world. I am very offended that you could bla it on , Rimuru!”
