In the world of Moe King, I became the ruler of ice.

Rimuru slapped him across the face without any politeness.

Gobuta spun around in place, turning 368 degrees before falling to the ground.

Master Bai shook his head. Although he was quite satisfied with this disciple, his personality meant he would have to spend more time teaching him.

"Hehe, please excuse my poor manners, gentlemen."

"It seems that this level of training is too lenient, Elder Bai. Gobuta should be given special consideration."

"Rimuru said angrily."

Gulansta nodded in agreement.

"That's absolutely right!"

After hearing the two elders' suggestions, Elder Bai began to think about them seriously, and then nodded in agreement.

"Looks like I need to refine my plan!"

Gobuta was lying on the ground, practically crying his eyes out, while the other goblins and Yhorm looked extremely relieved.

That jerk Gobuta has finally been punished.

...

After leaving the training ground

Gransta even went to Kurogane's place to personally design the Ice Guard's greatsword weapon, adding some random items made from materials.

A large, ancient blue sword was completed. Gransta picked it up and weighed it in his hand; it felt incredibly heavy.

"Indeed, the [Heavy] and [Crush] properties give this greatsword tremendous destructive power."

Granstas even gave it a try, and he was extremely satisfied with both its weight and power.

First, I put it into the material library. Interestingly, this weapon was displayed as a purple S-grade weapon in the material library.

"Lord Gransta, to be honest, the craftsmanship of this weapon is quite complex, but even Shion would probably find it difficult to use due to its weight."

Kurobei looked respectfully at the weapon that Gransta had put away, and asked with some confusion.

"Haha, whatever, this isn't for ordinary people."

Gransta knew that Kurobei must have been very strange when he made this weapon, but it didn't matter, this weapon was never intended for ordinary people anyway.

After explaining the weapon's user to Kurobei, Kurobei's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Ice Guardians?"

Kurobei truly hadn't guessed it, and only after Lord Gransta's explanation did he understand.

After saying goodbye to Kurogane, Gransta left, intending to use the completed weapon as a gift for Ice Guard after he graduated from White Elder's school.

Upon returning to the ice sculpture castle, I was greeted by a pair of resentful little eyes.

"Hmph, I've already finished restoring your ice sculpture."

When Ramiris saw Gransta return, she gave a particularly haughty snort.

Zhu Lai, standing next to her, covered her mouth and couldn't help but laugh.

"Is it fixed?"

Gransta looked at the pile of damaged ice sculptures with surprise, and after seeing what they looked like...

He immediately covered his forehead, looked at the ice sculpture that had turned into a monster, and said helplessly.

"Okay, letting you fix it was the biggest mistake I ever made."

"Huh? Is there?"

Gransta couldn't resist grabbing Ramiris and kneading her vigorously.

"Ahhh, help!"

At that moment, a voice echoed in his mind.

[Gransta, there's something I need to discuss with you.]

Gransta raised an eyebrow, wondering why Rimuru was sending him a telepathic message at this moment.

Without hesitation, he used gravity to control his body and head towards Rimuru's location.

On a flat, high peak, Rimuru sat on the grass, with a giant white wolf wagging its tail beside him.

After Granstas's figure landed here, he saw Rimuru's back. The atmosphere felt a bit strange, and this place...

"Rimuru, is there something important you wanted to see me about?"

Rimuru turned around and gave a big smile, not revealing his inner emotions, but instead asking questions.

"Gransta, is the weapon for the Ice Guardian finished?"

"Okay, it's done."

As a gentle breeze blew by, Gransta noticed a cryptic emotion in Rimuru's eyes.

Gransta sat down next to Rimuru and asked softly.

"Rimuru, what's wrong?"

Seeing Granstra's worried look, Rimuru sighed inwardly and looked to the side.

There's a pile of stones piled up to form a stone mound, offering a panoramic view of the entire Demon City—a place with a very wide field of vision.

Gransta noticed Rimuru's gaze and had a vague idea of ​​what was going on.

"Granda, do you think Miss Shizue will see the development of the Monster Holy City?"

"She will."

Granstas's tone was reassuring, seemingly intended to comfort Rimuru.

Rimuru's expression did improve, and he felt more at ease.

"That's right. The reason we placed her here was so that she could fully understand the development of this place."

Gransta's gaze fell below, where a blue barrier covered the center of the Demon City, and the surrounding buildings stood tall and imposing.

Rimuru watched as well, never expecting that such a small, insignificant place could have built such a large city. Of course, he couldn't have accomplished such a feat by himself, and he probably couldn't have done it to this extent.

"This is all thanks to you."

Rimuru smiled at Gransta. Although this guy always liked to stay in the castle, he wouldn't have changed so much without Rimuru's help.

"Actually, I didn't do anything. You know I love to slack off the most."

"Moreover, as the leader of the alliance, you have made the greatest contribution to us."

Gransta internally confirmed that Rimuru had indeed made things much easier for him on the surface, and had made a significant contribution.

Rimuru was unusually silent for a moment before raising his head and speaking to Gransta.

"Gransta, do you know why I called you here?"

Why?

Gransta stared into Rimuru's eyes, also wanting to know the specific reason.

"I'd like to temporarily hand over the leadership of the alliance to you..."

Gulansta immediately stood up and walked away without hesitation.

"Hey, hey, don't go! Let me explain!"

Rimuru saw Gransta turn to leave and immediately grabbed his clothes.

Gransta calmly turned his head and looked at Rimuru indifferently.

"Give me an explanation!"

He seriously suspected that Rimuru was taking the opportunity to shirk his responsibilities, since the joke was about handing over a major task right after taking office.

Rimuru looked at Gransta with a resentful expression. "It's just that I'm temporarily making you the leader of the alliance. Is it really necessary to react so strongly?"

"Actually, I've been dreaming about Miss Jingjiang a lot lately. She keeps reminding me not to forget those students."

"Besides, I've noticed that the Demon Capital has calmed down recently, so I wanted to go check it out."

Although Gransta had already guessed it, he still stroked his chin.

"So... you're thinking of taking leave?"
