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

Gulansta immediately contacted Ether and said:

"Ether, prepare to set up an ultra-long-distance teleportation array to locate the Demon Holy City."

"Received. This teleportation will consume a massive amount of magic energy..."

"Ignore consumption!"

Gulansta waved his hand dismissively, completely unconcerned.

"Wide-area teleportation array completed... Target: Demon Holy City."

Under the astonished gazes of Victor and Cromwell, an ice mirror tens of meters in size slowly rose, its surface shimmering with a silvery halo.

"Don't just stand there like idiots, come home with me."

Gulansta turned around with a smile.

The two people behind him were already dumbfounded. Then Gransta jumped into the mirror first and disappeared in an instant.

"Let's go."

"Her Majesty the Queen has ordered us to follow this demon king; this is a command."

"oh."

......

Tanpast Federation Monster Kingdom, Central City

—The Holy City of Demons

In the center of the square, which is covered with white tiles, the ground quickly freezes, and countless ice roses bloom all around.

Sunlight poured down, and the frosty ground resembled a crystal-clear mirror, in which a figure slowly appeared.

Inside the Regent's Palace and his office

Rimuru, who had been dozing at his desk, suddenly looked up, his face filled with ecstatic joy. He leaped up from his chair as if flying and said:

"It's Gransta's aura. He's back."

The central square was bustling with activity, and it was almost completely surrounded by people. They were all too familiar with this chilly atmosphere.

It must be Lord Gransta who has returned!

In a barbecue restaurant, the goblin owner was busy at the grill, his hands almost never stopping.

There was only one blond customer in the shop, laughing heartily as he ate grilled skewers and drank fruit wine.

at this time,

The blond man stopped eating, stood up, and revealed his perfectly sculpted muscles.

The goblin boss panicked, wiping his sweat as he said:

"Um, sir, aren't you going to eat?"

"I'm not eating yet."

After standing up, the blond man straightened his handsome clothes, fixed his hair, and struck a pose.

"How about it? Powerful yet stylish, isn't it?"

The goblin boss nodded frantically and even gave a thumbs up.

"Haha, I knew it, my charm would definitely amaze him."

"Good brother, your older brother is here."

The goblin boss breathed a sigh of relief when the blond man left, slumped to the ground, his hands numb with exhaustion.

But a deep, resonant voice reached his ears.

"Boss, your cooking is pretty good. I'll be right back."

"Also, you're grilling the meat too slowly, can you speed it up?"

The goblin boss was struck hard, lost all his strength and collapsed to the ground, tears of grievance streaming from his eyes.

People thronged around the square, and some even jumped up to watch from a distance.

"Where is Lord Gransta? Where is Lord Gransta?"

"I am his admirer, and I want to see Lord Gransta in person."

"Get lost, don't push! You think you're the only one who admires ice? I'm a believer in ice magic!"

Many goblins and pig-headed men almost came to blows over who would be at the front.

Amid the noisy and chaotic scene, a reprimand rang out.

"Quiet!!!"

The scene immediately fell silent after that reprimand.

A clear path parted in the dense crowd, and as the shouts subsided, a well-trained pack of Ice Demon Wolves slowly marched along the clear path.

This squad is the city patrol wolf rider team, specifically responsible for maintaining order and security in the monster capital.

A goblin sat atop the massive ice wolf that led the pack.

He is Gobuta.

The patrol captain is also considered the commander of the city defense legion.

Gobuta glanced around and said loudly:

"What's all the noise about? What's everyone arguing about? And you...you, are you going to start a fight?"

Gobuta pointed out a few guys who were about to lose their temper and threatened them:

"How about you fight me? Or have a go at me?"

"No, I wouldn't dare... Hehe, I wouldn't dare, I was just joking."

The people pointed at by Gobuta immediately sneered, then their expressions changed, and they took a few steps back, their eyes filled with excitement.

Gobuta was puzzled to see them running so fast. Was he really that scary just now?

However, a mocking voice came from behind him.

"Hey, Gobuta, you're really something."

Gobuta turned his face away, just about to show off, but the voice seemed so familiar.

Oh no, it's Lord Rimuru!!

Gobuta's teammates immediately moved away from him, standing neatly on both sides with an expression that said, "It's none of my business."

Gobuta gave a wry smile, turned around awkwardly, and saw a majestic, snow-white wolf head staring at him.

"Brother Lanya... hello there."

On Ranya's back, a soft, naturally colored slime was smilingly staring at him.

"Rimuru...Master..."

Gobuta's smile was more like a grimace.

Rimuru simply jumped off Ranga and transformed into a beautiful blue-haired girl.

Rimuru patted Gobuta on the shoulder and encouraged him:

"Show me that same spirit you had just displayed. You're the genius of our village!"

"Yes."

Gobuta immediately perked up and puffed out his chest.

"That's more like it."

Gobuta looked behind Lord Rimuru and saw Julai, Shion, Benimaru, and even Souei, who rarely showed up, were all there, along with Kaijin and the others...

Rimuru looked at the changes in the center of the square and shook his head with a wry smile.

"That guy Gransta, he makes such a fuss every time he comes home, as if he's afraid no one will know he's back."

At this time,

"Haha, Rimuru, my little brother, I'm here."

A loud voice rang out, and a golden man fell from the horizon. He seemed to be a little full, and Mo Su couldn't control himself for a moment.

"Um, Veldora, what's this?"

Rimuru watched with a dark expression as Veldora fell from the sky and crashed into the ground, creating a deep crater.

"Cough cough... It's a small problem, nothing serious. I ate a bit too much and didn't control myself, hahahahaha."

Veldora stood up from the ground and scratched his head somewhat awkwardly.

Rimuru strongly suspected that this guy had arrived too hastily, and coupled with the fact that this body was already difficult to control a massive amount of magic energy, he had also eaten too much.

And then, right in front of him, someone performed a trapeze act.

Just then, magical light shone in the center of the square, and the surrounding ice roses slowly bloomed.

For a moment, everyone was stunned by the beautiful scene; it was so stunning.

Rimuru looked speechless.

If you're coming back, just come back. Why make such a fuss?

Verudela, however, didn't feel much of a connection; he didn't have much of an artistic sense and couldn't appreciate this kind of beauty.

Beneath the ice, Gransta's figure slowly rose, followed by two disheveled figures crashing through the ice and falling out, panting heavily.

Rimuru asked, puzzled, "What are these two things?"

As soon as Granstas appeared, his eyes locked onto the two at the front, and he smiled:

"Rimuru... and Veldora."

"Little brother, I'm late!"

Gulansta's smile froze. Wait a minute?

It sounded like a very strange noise had entered his ears.

Rimuru turned his head in astonishment, his expression one of disbelief.

"........."
