Chapter 297: First Encounter with Rimuru

The next day, early in the morning.

Walking on the road to the depths of the Great Forest of Gula, the three of Ailian's nerves were unprecedentedly nervous at this time.

Always paying attention to the surrounding environment, the three of them at this time no longer dared to be as reckless as before.

After all, the information that Emiya Shirou said last night, the three of them have not yet digested it.

After all, the demon king or something, for humans, this thing is death and natural disasters.

It's a terrifying existence.

Now, there is actually a trace of the demon king in the Great Forest of Gula, how can this not be frightening!

Walking at the back of the line, looking at the nervous three people, Emiya Shirou kept scolding in his heart why he wanted to be a fun-loving person and deceive them like this.

So much so that the speed of progress is now far lower than the speed that Emiya Shirou envisioned.

What's even more frustrating is that Emiya Shirou can't take it back at all, and it can't be said that he made a joke on a whim yesterday.

At that time, the other party will inevitably ask Emiya Shirou's purpose again.

You can't just reveal your identity as an otherworldly traveler as soon as you come!

Besides, I don't think I'm deceiving them!

After all, isn't the trace of the Demon King the trace of the Moe King?

According to the routine, Rimuru in the future is definitely the strongest demon king, there is no doubt about it.

So how is the trace of the strongest demon king in the future not the trace of the demon king?

So Emiya Shirou thought about it and decided to leave it at that!

Anyway, it's useless to be anxious in this world, since you have decided to play the game with the farming flow players, you can only wait for the event to come and find trouble.

Otherwise, farming players will never take the initiative!

In this way, in a tense atmosphere, Emiya Shirou and his party kept moving forward.

Although the speed of progress is not fast, through the communication with several people on the way, Emiya Shirou has become more and more aware of the surrounding environment.

Coupled with the guidance on the way of fighting the three on the way, the group soon arrived at their destination.

Seal the cave of the storm dragon Virudra.

"Tsk, there's a portal here, it's too abnormal!"

Looking at the closed portal in front of him, Emiya Shirou touched his chin and couldn't help complaining.

(In the original book, the portal is inside the cave, but the animation is outside.) For the development of the story, the author here proceeds according to the setting of the anime. )

"So is Shirou-senpai going to leave next?"

Looking at Emiya Shirou who was leaning on the side, Ailian, who was holding the wand in both hands, said with some reluctance.

After this period of getting along, the relationship between the four has become familiar.

Especially Ailian, for Emiya Shirou, a charismatic powerhouse, naturally has a special feeling in her heart.

"Ah, the next road can only be carved out by yourselves!"

"There is no banquet in the world that will not be dispersed, and separation will come sooner or later."

"But I'm sure with our fate, we'll meet again sooner or later!"

Stretching out his palm and stroking Ailian's head, Emiya Shirou smiled and comforted the three of them.

"Yes, Shirou-senpai!"

Pushing open the heavy door with difficulty, the three of Ailian's three waved their hands at Emiya Shirou, and then used the stealth technique to enter the cave.

Before he had time to experience the sadness of parting, Emiya Shirou sensed some kind of powerful aura.

Knowing that he had caught up, Emiya Shirou turned on the breath block, and then leaned against the entrance of the cave with his chest and waited quietly.

Soon, he heard the sound of 'doo'.

It was like the sound of a balloon filled with water bouncing and approaching.

Feeling the dangerous aura emanating from the slime, Emiya Shirou saw the opportunity and instantly trampled the slime that had just jumped out of the cave to the ground.

"Although because of the high concentration of magic around you, your breath is difficult to perceive, making people think that you have an illusion, but it is someone else after all."

Looking at the slime who seemed to be sweating constantly, the smile on the corner of Emiya Shirou's mouth became even more pleasant.

"I didn't expect that there would be such a terrifying monster in the Great Forest of Gula, although I just came to this world, but since I am a brave man, should I get rid of you?"

Pulling out the sword projected in advance, he kept hitting the slime that was trampled on the ground, and Emiya Shirou kept laughing in his heart.

"It's so much fun!"

"Except for me, no one should be able to trample this future world's strongest slime under their feet!"

"Now Rimuru doesn't understand his strength at all, so he doesn't have any intention of fighting the enemy."

"He must have been bluffed by me by now!"

Although Emiya Shirou's heart was constantly laughing at this time, on the surface, he still looked cold.

At this time, Rimuru was actually not weak, but he had no experience or will to fight when he first came to this world.

Just as Emiya Shirou thought, Rimuru was screaming nervously in his heart at this time.

"It's over, I just met a strong enemy as soon as I came out, what did he just say, brave?"

"Confirm that the human beings in front of you are the eggs of the brave, and they are indeed brave! 》

"Even the great sage said so, did I meet the big boss as soon as I went out?"

"O brave, the strongest human, I won't die here! That's too old, isn't it? ”

Thinking of his past life, and thinking of the storm dragon Virudra he had encountered in the cave before, Rimuru's heart gradually grew to want to live.

So, he pretended to say, "Although I am a monster, I am not an evil slime!" ”

"Talking slimes alone are already an extremely weird thing!"

"And what you just said seems to be a line from a previous game!"

As soon as Rimuru's words fell, Emiya Shirou's complaint had already come.

Although his words were completely denied, Rimuru discovered something else.

"Game, lines!"

"Are you from another world, too?"

Although it was still a round lump, Emiya Shirou was unexpectedly able to read his emotions.

Seeing that the other party finally picked up his topic, Emiya Shirou moved his feet away, pretending to be surprised and said, "Hey, don't you want to say that you are an earthling reincarnated in this world!" ”

"This is already an old-fashioned episode!"

"Although it is indeed an old-fashioned episode, I am indeed an earthling!"

"I was reincarnated into this world after I was stabbed to death on Earth trying to save people. That's what it looks like when you wake up! ”

Seeing that the other party was indeed a person from another world, Rimuru was surprised to see his fellow countryman and kept jumping around.

"Tsk, is it really a reincarnated person? It's still a stream of strange beasts. ”

Grab the jumping slime and hold it with both hands.

Emiya Shirou smiled and said, "Since you are from the earth, then forget it!" ”

"My name is Emiya Shirou, and I'm an otherworldly traveler from Earth!"

"Emiya Shirou!?"

Hearing this familiar and unfamiliar name, Rimuru, who saw that the other party was indeed his hometown, said in surprise: "My name is Rimuru Turnpest, and my name in my previous life was Satoru Mikami!" ”

"Satoru Mikami? It seems that he is indeed a fellow countryman! ”

"Is that lucky? As soon as I came to another world, I met a companion, which should be considered luck! ”

"Shirou, did you just come to this world?"

"That's right, I've only been here for two or three days."

Looking at the slime in front of him, Emiya Shirou said with a smile, "It seems that we have to find a way to survive in this world!" ”
