Rimuru's words were extremely cold, as if there was no warmth at all.
The three of them saw at just one glance that the person in front of them was the 'Devil King' Rimuru they wanted to see. Then the three of them looked at each other and knelt down in front of Rimuru with a 'plop'.
As crisp as it looks, it's as crisp as it gets!
"Lord Rimuru, please accept the three of us!"
And Rimuru, who originally wanted to test the three of them, was completely confused by this sudden scene!
This, what is going on!?
Veldora:...!!!
Azhdaha:...!!!!!
Ramiris:...!!!
Not only Rimuru was confused, but also Veldora, who was still reading comics, and Azhdaha, who was standing watching the movie, were also completely confused by this sudden move.
In other words, all the monsters in the whole room were shocked by the sudden actions of the three people.
"You, you guys, get up first! If you have something to say, talk to me."
At this time, Rimuru no longer looked as cold and majestic as before, but instead looked stammering.
After all, who would make me kneel down when they meet for the first time?
Rimuru This is the first time in his two lives that he has seen this kind of situation.
After receiving Rimuru's permission, the three of them slowly stood up.
Looking at the three people who stood up, Lim breathed a sigh of relief. After all, this was her first time being kneeled down by a stranger!
Then Rimuru asked about the purpose of the three people coming to see him.
"Lord Rimuru, we want to take refuge with you, we want to take refuge with you, Demon Country Federation."
Shinji answered honestly to Rimuru.
There is no point in lying to a strong man of this level. It is better to confess directly, but you will get different results.
"Yes, yes, yes~~, Lord Rimuru, the three of us are here to seek refuge with you. There is no future in the empire, and we want to find a job under you."
Mark on the side also echoed Shinji's words.
In Mark's opinion, the empire's attack will definitely fail. They don't want to be the empire's cannon fodder and pawns.
How much money does it cost per month? What a waste of money!
The last person among the three, Shen, nodded in agreement with the two others.
"... In other words, the three of you want to betray the empire and join me, Demon Country Federation. Is this what you mean?!"
Rimuru asked the three of them hesitantly.
When they heard the word 'betrayal', the expressions of the three of them changed and they shook their heads towards Rimuru in panic.
As summoners from the earth, they know that people like 'traitors' are not liked anywhere.
Although their current behavior is no different from that of traitors, it is fundamentally different.
The three of them are not from this world, and they don't have the slightest bit of loyalty to the empire.
None of them have ever been loyal to the empire, so why betray them!
In the eyes of the three of them, serving the empire is nothing more than working in the same company as in their previous lives.
Now this company is going to do a project that is obviously going to make a loss, and it may directly lead to bankruptcy. Not only that, but also let the three of them come out to be cannon fodder and pawns for this project!
You said, if you don't run away now, then when will you wait?
Even a fool knows to run away, not to mention that now this matter is related to his own life!
The only bad thing about them is that they want to defect to their old club's opponents, and they are preparing to use the old club's information as a pledge of surrender.
But they just want to live, and there's nothing wrong with that.
Not to mention that this is still a different world where 'the weak eats the strong'.
So..., sorry! Empire.
"Lord Rimuru, you should have noticed that the three of us are summoners from the earth, and we have no loyalty to the empire."
"Furthermore, our teacher and we all strongly disagree with the attack on Demon Country Federation. However, the emperor insists on having his own way."
"We didn't want to be cannon fodder so we had to find another way out."
Shinji, on the other hand, directly expressed his thoughts to Rimuru, acting as sincerely as he wanted.
"Yeah. And Demon Country Federation is so much better than the Empire. It even gives us a feeling of dreaming back to Earth. So after we came to Demon Country Federation on the first day, we wanted to make a home here."
Mark directly expressed his thoughts. After all, the 'Devil King' in front of him was one of the founders of this 'Utopia'!
If he offends this person, his little plan to settle down will really come to an end!
So building a good relationship is a wise choice.
"Well. We don't like war. We like this country very much, and we don't want the empire to destroy this country. In addition, I may not have any loyalty to the empire, so I came to seek refuge with you."
Shen also expressed his thoughts.
After listening to the words of the three people, Rimuru's eyes were full of hesitation. After all, these three guys were obviously too suspicious.
But the tone of the three people didn't sound like they were lying. At least in the test of 'King of Wisdom', the three people didn't have any concealment or excitement when they said these words.
The rest of the people did not speak. After all, Rimuru is the one who makes the decision. Those of them who don't know how to negotiate should not interrupt.
"We know you won't believe us, so we will tell you all the information we know about the empire."
"And we only ask for one thing, and that is that before the war breaks out in the empire, we hope that you can spare one person's life."
Shinji's words were full of sincerity and pleading.
Shen and Mark on the side also nodded to express that they meant the same thing.
"Can I ask the identity of the person you want me to let go?"
Rimuru asked the three of them hesitantly.
The three of them looked at each other and saw the joy in each other's eyes. It looked like they had a chance!
"Our teacher is also the empire's 'Great Magician'--Gadra."
Shinji hurriedly said his teacher's name, as if he was afraid of being late.
As soon as these words came out, almost everyone in the audience looked in the direction of the three people.
Especially 'Adaman', who is a good friend of Gadra, is particularly excited.
PS: Surprising or not, unexpected or not!
The kitten coded out another chapter!
But the kitten is exhausted.
This chapter is an extra update. Readers who are still online can read it first. After reading it, go to bed quickly.
The kittens also need to rest. Don't study with the kittens. They go to bed so late, so the adults should take a step first. (Good night)
Finally, I would like to say that the kitten will be updated from time to time in the past few days, but the kitten will never be less updated and will be updated from time to time!
So readers, please stay tuned!
