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

"Damn it, Ramiris, it really is you?"

Rimuru stood up from the ground in pain; the force of that attack was truly astounding.

His eyes widened and turned menacing as he stared intently at Ramiris's retreating figure.

Ramiris turned her head awkwardly, only to meet those unfriendly eyes.

"Hey, it's an old acquaintance! I thought it was that adventurer who barged in!"

She scratched her head awkwardly and began to explain, feeling embarrassed.

Rimuru, however, wouldn't listen at all.

Coincidentally, Gransta came out at that moment and just happened to see Rimuru choking Ramiris.

Ramiris just pushed herself to her limit; it seems she really cares about that puppet.

Ramiris saw Gransta and immediately shouted for help:

"Gransta, stop this guy! Save me..."

"Gransta!!" Rimuru exclaimed in surprise, and involuntarily released his grip.

"What are you doing?"

Gransta walked over helplessly and met Rimuru's shocked gaze.

An odd atmosphere was spreading when Rimuru broke the silence.

"How did you end up here?"

Rimuru was genuinely surprised; he never expected to meet Gransta here.

"You mean me? You'd have to ask Ramiris about that."

Gransta pointed to himself, then identified the culprit, and gave a brief explanation.

Rimuru glanced at Ramiris indifferently: "I didn't expect you to be so wicked."

Ramiris could only manage a weak smile.

Then Rimuru looked at Gransta and smiled, though his smile was a little stiff.

"Gransta, I never expected that you could incur such a huge debt while traveling. It's quite a surprise."

Gransta's face twitched visibly; she was about to interrogate him.

"That... was just an accident."

"Hmph, you've incurred a debt of over a thousand gold coins from a single accident. Are you planning to sell me next time?"

As soon as Rimuru saw Gransta, he couldn't help but bring up the matter. He had already contacted Rigrude, the Monster Holy City, and learned that their country's finances simply couldn't afford such a huge sum.

Gulansta quickly raised his hand to apologize, saying he would find a way to resolve the issue.

"Teacher, do you know all of these people?" A petite girl asked sweetly, staring curiously at the people who had appeared.

Rimuru coughed calmly, still wanting to maintain a good image in front of his students.

"Yes, we're all from the same country. This ridiculously handsome guy is the friend I mentioned to you."

"Oh, by the way, he's an elf too."

After listening to Rimuru-sensei's explanation, they immediately looked at Gransta with curiosity, their little eyes shining brightly.

Gransta's image matched their impression of the perfect elf; she was indeed as gentle as the legends described, and had an excessively handsome face.

Rimuru noticed the students' somewhat jealous expressions and suddenly remembered the purpose of their visit.

"Grand Tower, do you know there are elves here? I want to use them to..."

With Gransta's keen senses, he naturally noticed the unusual nature of these students; the magical power they possessed was ridiculously high, yet it was also crumbling.

Kuroya also came closer, curiously observing the children in front of her who were about the same age as her.

Rimuru immediately noticed that this appeared to be an underage tree spirit.

"Gransta, why is there a little child next to you?"

He wanted to go over and touch the little girl; the tree spirit was just so adorable.

"You mean Kuroya? She's my student now."

Gransta introduced Chloe with a smile, while Rimuru looked at him in disbelief, his expression as if to say, "You actually take on students?"

"Hello, my name is Alice, and they are Ryota and Kenya..."

"Can we play with you?"

A little girl ran out from behind Rimuru, extended her hand to Chloe, and enthusiastically introduced herself.

Kuroya also felt a fondness for these peers and took their outstretched hands.

"My name is Chloe."

...

"This girl really is the Elf Queen. I didn't believe it before."

Rimuru looked constipated, and Ramiris retorted angrily.

"What? Who do you think you are?"

Then, with a glint in his eyes, he said with ill intent:

"What a coincidence! You shouldn't be looking for me now; you should be looking for Gransta, he's the one who can help you."

"Gransta has now been recognized by the Elf Throne and has been granted the title of Elf King..."

Rimuru was shocked again, only now noticing the golden mark on Gransta's forehead.

"You're the Elf King now?"

Granstamer nodded silently; the Elf King did indeed possess the ability to summon elves.

Having finally recovered from the shock of the fact that Gransta was the Elf King, she looked at him pleadingly.

"Gransta, you have to help me..."

As Rimuru's friend, Gransta has no problem doing this small favor.

"Come with me. I can only play a supporting role. Whether we succeed or not depends on you."

The students of Rimuruti thanked Gransta and assured him that they would succeed.

Everyone followed Ramiris to the summoning altar in the Elf Labyrinth.

Gransta summoned the Elf Throne, crafted from five-colored crystals, through the connection of the mark.

As soon as the magnificent elven throne appeared, many points of light surrounded it, and low-level elves of various elements emerged.

"These are all high-level spirits of various elements that have not yet developed consciousness. Have the students test which type of spirit they are compatible with."

"it is good."

Rimuru did as he was told, and the students all stood on the summoning altar, quietly closing their eyes and praying for the changes in the spirits.

A soft yellow light shone on Garu and a silver light on Alice, respectively, indicating that their compatible attributes are earth and space.

Gransta sighed inwardly. During the summoning just now, he sensed many high-level elves, but it seemed that none of them had chosen them. From the faint light, he could tell that there were only some low-level elves.

"There are no high-level elves to match these two children." He regretfully told Rimuru about this situation, explaining that stabilizing the magic energy in these children's bodies would require the power of high-level elves.

Gransta can only assist in summoning; it does not have the ability to forcibly enter into a contract.

Rimuru looked at the weak, low-level elves and a smile crept onto his face.

"This is no problem for me. Don't forget the Great Sage's abilities..."

"Defining Creation"

Gransta already guessed what Rimu was going to do, and silently lowered his gaze without stopping him.
