On the other side, Velgrend is like a virtuous wife, quietly guarding Rudra who is sitting on the chair.
Even though she knew that with Rudra's strength, she didn't need her protection.
"It's really beyond my expectation? I didn't expect that as the leader of the 'Devil Kingdom', you would actually set foot in the empire in person and leave the protection of the 'God of War'."
"But that's fine. Although I can't talk to that Excellency, it's quite interesting to talk to you, 'New Star Demon King'."
Although Rudra's words were plain, they were full of majesty belonging to a superior person.
Then, Rudra waved his hand casually, and a chair that was the opposite of Rudra suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
"Sit down. I think you don't want to talk to me standing up."
Rudra made a suggestion to Rimuru as if to remind him.
"Exactly. I also want to talk to you."
Rimuru looked at the chair beside him and said something indifferently. There was no trace of fear towards 'Rudra' and 'Velgrend' in his words.
There is no way! Anyone with a background is fearless.
Not to mention, the current background of 'Rimuru' is still the largest one on the entire continent.
Moreover, the team she led this time was so powerful. The worst thing she could do was defeat the empire. Anyway, she was not weak.
After hearing what 'Rimuru' said, the four people 'Diablo' and 'Mandrill' who originally protected 'Rimuru' in front of them also slowly put away the weapons in their hands, making a way for Rimuru.
Looking at the chair conjured by 'Rudra', Rimuru sat on it without any ceremony.
Velgrend on the other side looked at Rimuru's appearance and subconsciously complained.
"You are really rude."
Rudra, who listened to Velgrend complaining, waved his hand indifferently.
"It's okay. She is an equal to Yu."
At this time, the four people, 'Diablo', 'Testarossa', 'Benimaru' and 'Mandrill', who were originally blocking the front of 'Rimuru', stood behind Rimuru as guards.
After 'Rimuru' was firmly seated, this so-called meeting officially began.
"This time, you really defeated an entire army. To be honest, I really didn't expect that it would end up like this!?"
Looking at 'Rudra' who was sitting opposite him and preparing to talk to him, Rimuru said something like a sigh.
"Hahaha, there is no need to be modest. The current scene is also very unexpected for Yu. After all, as Yu said just now, even Yu did not expect that you would actually set foot in the empire in person."
Rudra laughed twice. Although his words were majestic, they were full of surprise and surprise that 'Rimuru' had personally set foot in the empire.
"Haha~~, to be serious, I'm actually very curious about how you discovered me. You have to know that we started very quickly and handled the rear end very well. Logically speaking, you shouldn't have discovered it so quickly."
"Is it possible... you are still turning on 'sense' all the time!?"
"Anyway, it's quite surprising to me."
At this time, Rimuru was still a little confused as to how he and others were exposed. You must know that their actions were very fast this time.
From the beginning of the operation to now, only half an hour has passed.
Could it be that, as she said, this guy 'Rudra' really has 'sense' turned on all the time!?
No way! After all, this is his territory, is it necessary to be so careful?
"That's not true. The reason why I found out about your actions was just because you killed a certain knight who could send me a message."
Rudra didn't hide too much and directly told 'Rimuru' the reason.
Indeed. It can be said that it was a coincidence that 'Rudra' discovered the actions of Rimuru and others.
The reason why Rudra found out was because Rimuru and the others killed a knight who was controlled by 'Tatsuya Kondo' with his own skills.
When that knight was killed, 'Tatsuya Kondo' had some sense, so he came to report to 'Rudra'.
After hearing the news, 'Rudra' did some investigating, and naturally the actions of Rimuru and others were exposed.
"Then... it's really unlucky."
Rimuru's words were calm, but with a trace of depression. They were careful enough, but they didn't expect to be discovered.
No.
"Since you discovered us a long time ago, why didn't you stop us when we started hunting other 'Sequence Knight'."
Rimuru's face was extremely serious, and his words were also very serious.
"Stop? There is no need. They are not a loss to the Empire."
"Besides, by being able to hang you out, they have contributed their own value."
When Rimuru questioned him for not taking action, Rudra felt a little confused, but still expressed his thoughts frankly.
Indeed. In Rudra's opinion, the existence of dozens of 'Immortal-level' is nothing more than cannon fodder-level characters.
As long as they have not stepped into the ranks of 'awakening', they are not even qualified to become pawns in his hands.
If we can lift out 'Rimuru' and others and only lose some cannon fodder, why not do it.
In 'Rudra''s own opinion, he has earned it.
After hearing Rudra's words, Rimuru only felt a chill.
Rimuru stared at Rudra opposite and said something sarcastically.
"You are truly a qualified...'superior'!"
Although those dozens of Immortal-level and Sequence Knight were personally killed by Rimuru, Rimuru still felt a little uncomfortable with the behavior of 'Rudra' who casually abandoned his subordinates.
From here, Rimuru can see that he and 'Rudra' are definitely not the same person!
At this time, Velgrend, who was standing next to 'Rudra', looked at Rimuru with a sharp look after hearing the sarcastic tone of 'Rimuru'.
At this time, the 'mandrill' standing behind Rimuru was also keenly aware of the changes in 'Velgrend', and quietly took a step forward.
It seems that as long as 'Velgrend' dares to make the slightest move, he will directly block the opponent.
Protecting the safety of 'Lord Rimuru' is a task assigned to him personally by the 'Emperor'.
No matter who it is, as long as it threatens the safety of Lord 'Rimuru', that is his enemy.
This is true even for 'Burning Dragon' Velgrend who is 'Calamity-class' True Dragon!
At this time, 'Rudra', who was sitting on the chair opposite Rimuru, looked at the 'Mandrill' who exuded a sharp aura beside Rimuru, with a hint of appreciation in his calm eyes.
"You are the 'Guardian Yaksha' under the 'Emperor', and you are the 'Mandrill' who owns the city of 'Golden Roc General'."
Rudra directly praised Mandrill without hesitation.
Just by looking at Rudra, you can detect the powerful power hidden in the body of 'Mandrill'.
Strong! Strong in the true sense!!!
Even in the eyes of 'Rudra', he can be called a 'strong' existence!
Even 'Tatsuya Kondo', which has a serial number of 1 in 'Emperor's Royal Guard Knights', is even worse than 'Mandrill'!
"Would you like to surrender to me and come under my command? I can give you the rights second only to mine!"
Rudra immediately developed a love for talent and started to win over Mandrill. Such a talent is rare even in the mainland for thousands of years!
If possible, he could even trade all his subordinates except 'Velgrend' for 'Mandrill'.
Because 'Mandrill' is indeed very strong!
"You are not worthy."
After Mandrill listened to the solicitation of 'Rudra', he spat out three words indifferently.
There was no scruple about the identity of 'Rudra' Emperor of the Empire, nor was there any scruple about the face of 'Velgrend' on the side.
Before 'Rudra' could say anything, 'Burning Dragon' Velgrend, who was standing next to 'Rudra', immediately became furious.
An overwhelming force of pressure went straight towards the people on the opposite side, 'Rimuru'.
Feeling the strong sense of oppression coming toward him, there was no emotion in Mandrill's eyes. He just indifferently raised the emerald-colored 'Harp of Peace' in his hand and waved it forward.
The oppressive feeling that came towards Rimuru and the others was shattered in an instant.
The 'Mandrill' who had done all this seemed to have just done a trivial thing, and just looked at the 'Burning Dragon' Velgrend not far away who was putting pressure on everyone.
At this time, 'Rimuru' and others, who were protected behind them by 'Mandrill', were also surprised when they saw how easily they could block this pressure.
After all, this is the pressure from 'Calamity-class' Burning Dragon Velgrend!
Seeing the aura that was easily blocked, and the indifferent eyes of 'Velgrend', 'Velgrend' felt that his majesty had been challenged.
She is one of the 'True Dragon', 'Burning Dragon' and Velgrend. This little brat who relies on her own strength actually dares to 'provoke' herself like this. She really doesn't know how to live or die!
And just when 'Velgrend' was about to step forward and want to teach 'Mandrill' a lesson again, he was stopped by 'Rudra'.
"Okay. Stop it. Velgrend."
Rudra said to Velgrend majestically.
Looking at 'Rudra' who was blocking him, Velgrend was a little aggrieved, but he still didn't take action. Instead, he stared at the mandrill standing in front of 'Rimuru' not far away.
"You are very strong and excellent. You are better than most of the people under my command. With a talent like you working for me, even Yu is jealous of that 'Emperor'."
Rudra did not lie. No monarch would not like such a loyal and 'powerful' talent.
Not to mention, 'Mandrill' is also a warrior!
If such a talent were to conquer a city, he would definitely be like a god general.
How could 'Rudra', who has the goal of 'unifying the continent', not desire it!
Faced with the praise from 'Rudra', Mandrill didn't say anything, but calmly returned behind Rimuru.
"Okay. Rudra, tell me your purpose! You spent so much effort to find me in front of you, probably not just to talk nonsense to me."
Rimuru also became rude at this time, and went straight to the topic of "Rudra".
She couldn't believe that 'Rudra' had spent so much effort just to chat with her here.
As for your question about why 'Rimuru' doesn't give Rudra face, haha~~, you can be so arrogant if you have power and background.
Not to mention, she had seen with her own eyes the scene of 'Burning Dragon', Velgrend and 'Rudra' being beaten violently by her family's Ari.
To be serious, she is really not afraid of Rudra.
Moreover, having already reached this situation, she did not believe that 'Rudra' would let her and others go so easily.
"I still want to chat with you for a while. Since you don't have this intention, forget it."
"Yu has only one purpose, and that is, 'Yu wants to control you.'"
Rudra said coldly to 'Rimuru'.
This is his only purpose.
This is also the only way to break through the situation at present.
"It's really despicable! Rudra."
"You are not sure how to deal with my Ari, so you want to use me to force my Ari to submit!"
"You're dreaming!"
Rimuru immediately understood the conspiracy of 'Rudra' and roared directly at it.
"Is it despicable? Haha~~, for Yu's dominance, so what if it's despicable!?"
"Those who achieve great things do not stick to trivial matters."
"Besides, if you want to blame it, blame it on your own stupidity and carelessness! You gave me this chance."
Rudra's words were majestic and full of coldness and ruthlessness.
In his opinion, as long as he can achieve his goal, he can use any means!
As Rudra said these words, dozens of knights exuding powerful aura surrounded Rimuru and others.
Including serial numbers with single digits such as Tatsuya Kondo and Damrada.
Feeling the dozens of auras surrounding him, Diablo and others who were guarding Rimuru also entered a fighting state.
It should have been so long ago.
Just when the atmosphere was tense, 'Mandrill' disappeared directly from the spot and turned into a stream of cyan light. He held Harp of Peace and stabbed Rudra who was sitting on the chair.
Seeing this scene, everyone present was shocked.
However, this attack was easily blocked before it hit Rudra. I saw 'Velgrend' standing in front of Rudra, tightly grasping the tip of the mandrill 'Harp of Peace' with his own hand.
Two fierce auras burst out from the two of them.
Seeing the blocked attack, Mandrill frowned slightly and did not struggle. He twisted the hand holding Harp of Peace slightly and broke free from the confinement of 'Velgrend'. However, he was still shaken back a few steps by the force of the counterattack.
"Tick-tock~~, tick-tock~~"
I saw a few drops of bright red blood flowing out from Velgrend's right hand and falling on the ground.
Velgrend, bleeding!!!
