Day Three
Gaviru surveyed the battlefield where he held the upper hand, and from the high ground on the rocks, he saw the arrival of the orcish reinforcements and shouted, "The orcs are no match for us noble lizardmen! Retreat for now!"
The lizardmen and goblin troops below began to retreat.
The retreating lizardmen suddenly discovered the pig-headed tribe eating the corpses of their own kind. Terrified, they cried out, "The pig-headed tribe is eating our own kind!"
Gavilu and the retreating soldiers turned around at the sound of shouting and were stunned with fright. At that moment, a pig-headed soldier took advantage of a lizardman's inattention, grabbed his foot and dragged him down. The pig-headed soldiers behind him swarmed forward and began to tear and eat him.
"Help! Lord Gavilu!" the still-alive lizardman cried out for help.
"what"
The next second, he was torn apart and eaten by more pig-headed creatures.
"Crush everything, crush everything. Take the power of your devoured companions for yourself. Take the power of your devoured prey for yourself." After eating all the lizardmen, the orc-headed tribe began chanting these words as they surrounded Gavilu and the others.
"Retreat! Retreat immediately!" Gavilu shouted as he saw there was no chance to save him.
"Lord Gavilu, we're surrounded!" the underling cried out in alarm.
Gaviru watched the approaching orcs, his face grim as he thought, "What happened? Their movements have clearly quickened." The orcs began to slowly close in, and then Gaviru noticed that scales and coats had sprouted from their bodies!
"How is that possible? How can they grow scales and scales? They're just like us!" Gavilu exclaimed.
The lizardman soldier told Gavilu, "One of our comrades was just eaten, and their behavior changed after that."
After listening, Gavilu stared at the orcs. He hadn't expected them to have the ability to gain power by devouring others. After raising his weapon and repelling one of the orcs that attacked him, he shouted, "Tight formation! Centered around the goblin squad, stick together tightly and protect the goblin squad as they break through!"
Gavir felt a sense of unease looking at the soldiers tightly clustered behind him. He could escape if it were just lizardmen soldiers, but with goblins involved, it was counterproductive. However, the goblins had come here because of him, and he would never abandon the goblin army.
Gaviru looked at the terrified lizardman soldiers behind him and shouted, "Don't be afraid! Let them witness the power of the noble lizardmen!"
At this moment, Gavilu, who was completely surrounded, noticed that the orc tribe had stopped, and a figure wearing black armor and wielding a giant axe stepped out.
Looking at the enormous pig-headed creature, Gavilu pointed his trident and asked, "What an astonishing aura! You pig-headed creature over there, you must be the Pig-Headed Emperor! I am the leader of the Lizardmen, let's settle this one-on-one!"
"I am not the Pig-Headed Emperor," the giant pig-headed creature said, looking down at Gavilu. "I am the Pig-Headed General, far inferior to the Pig-Headed Emperor."
"Not the Pig-Headed Emperor!" Gavilu thought in fear, taking a step back. How could someone with such great power be far inferior to the Pig-Headed Emperor?
General Pighead watched as Gavil stepped forward. "A one-on-one duel? Interesting. I accept."
"Thank you," Gavilu said, twirling his trident. He knew that if the orcs surrounding him attacked together, they wouldn't last long. Adjusting his stance, he couldn't help but think about the oppressive figure in front of him; just how terrifying was the real orc emperor?
Gabiru watched as the pig-headed general banished his thoughts. The important thing now was to confront the pig-headed general first, and then lead everyone to break out of the encirclement.
{Vortex Spear Water Strike} Gavilu roared and charged forward first.
"Hmph!" the Pig-Headed General roared, swinging his axe to shatter the whirlpool of water created by Gavilu. {Chaos Devour}—three black and red devouring shadows flew towards Gavilu.
A cloud of dust rose as Gavir narrowly dodged the boar-headed general's attack. Panting heavily, he looked at the three devouring shadows floating around the boar-headed general.
"Do you want to devour me?" Gavilu
"How long can you hide?" Pig-Headed General mocked.
"Lord Gavilu, we're here to help!" The third henchman, seeing Gavilu struggling, wanted to step in and assist.
With a flourish of his left hand, Gavilu, his back to his three underlings, declared stylishly, "This is a one-on-one duel!"
After saying that, he charged forward again, shattering or dodging the oncoming Devouring Shadows, and rapidly approached the Pig-Headed General. He then thrust his spear directly at him.
With a muffled groan, the Pig-Headed General sent Gavil flying. Gavil adjusted his body in mid-air and used the force of his fall to attack the Pig-Headed General. After a few rounds of back and forth, Gavil was sent flying by the Pig-Headed General towards the Lizardmen.
Gavilu struggled to his feet. The pig-headed general looked at Gavilu lying on the ground and mocked, "Lizardmen are well-suited to lying on the ground. Die!"
He raised his giant axe and slashed at Gavilu.
"when"
The giant axe was knocked away, and at that moment, Gavilu and the lizardman soldiers, who had their eyes closed, saw a figure with silver hair and golden dragon horns standing in front of Gavilu.
Lu Tianyu looked down at Gavir and smiled, "Not bad, I'm impressed. I didn't expect you to abandon the goblin army in the end. You could have used the goblins as a shield and led the lizardmen to break through."
"You're the one who stood next to the slime back then?" Gabiru exclaimed in surprise, looking at the figures who had saved him. "Are you here to help us?"
"It's Lord Lu Tianyu, he's here to deal with the Orc army," Gobuta said, helping Gavilu up.
"Lord Lu Tianyu, do you need us to join you?" Lan Ya asked, walking up from behind.
Gabiru, who was being supported by Gobuta, looked at the suddenly appearing Ranga from the Fang Wolf Clan.
"No need, you guys step back a bit, I'm afraid you'll get caught in the crossfire," Lu Tianyu said excitedly. It was his first time on the battlefield, but Lu Tianyu wasn't afraid at all. He just felt the blood night starting to flow faster, and he started to get excited. After all, the Dragon Spirit Clan was a race that loved fighting and didn't care about their own lives.
Lan Ya noticed that Lu Tianyu seemed somewhat subdued, but sensed a hint of excitement within him. She quickly led Gabiru and Gobuta back.
Sensing that Ranga had retreated to a safe place, Lu Tianyu looked at the boar-headed general in front of him excitedly and said, "Now it's a different person. Ever since I arrived here, I've been suppressing my aura. After all, this is Rimuru's village, and it wouldn't be good to scare them."
Without waiting for the pig-headed general to speak, he released the magic he had been suppressing.
A silver-gold pillar of magical light shot into the sky, causing the earth to tremble and the clouds to be blown away. A mournful sound filled the air. A pressure as if the sky were collapsing followed. Within the pillar of magical light, a being who appeared to be only about one meter tall and looked to be six or seven years old stood as imposing as a giant supporting the heavens and the earth.
Chapter Nineteen: The Man Who Devours Everything
Gabiru and the others stared blankly at the figure, feeling a terrifying, soul-crushing pressure. Although Ranga and the others knew beforehand that Lu Tianyu was strong, they hadn't expected him to be this ridiculously strong.
Lu Tianyu looked at the pig-headed general in front of him, who was so overwhelmed by his aura that he could barely stand, and said calmly to the person beside him, "It seems you've already realized the gap between us. Do you still want to go?"
"For the king, I'd be willing to die," the pig-headed general said, trembling as he stood up.
"Quite loyal, but I don't have time to play with you slowly. Go to sleep, and when you wake up, you'll start a brand new life." Lu Tianyu looked at him approvingly, and then unleashed his full dragon might, causing the entire 20-strong pig-headed army to faint.
Lan Ya approached and asked, "Lord Lu Tianyu, aren't we going to kill him?"
“No need to kill them. After Rimuru defeats the Orc Emperor, he will subdue the Orcs. You all stay here and take care of them. I'm going to Rimuru’s side,” Lu Tianyu explained, then flew towards Rimuru.
Rewind a few minutes. Not far from Lu Tianyu, Rimuru and the others were confronting the Orc Lord when a magical pillar suddenly shot into the sky, which they spotted.
"It seems that the Heavenly Feather has already begun," Rimuru said, looking at the pillar of light.
"Lord Rimuru, you said this is Lord Tenyu's power?" Benimaru looked at the terrifying magic in the distance. Even here, he could feel the power that would kill him instantly if he were touched even slightly.
“That’s right, it seems we can leave the Orcs to Tianyu,” Rimuru said with relief, turning to the Orc Emperor. ‘Then let’s begin.’
The Orc Emperor looked at Rimuru: "I sense this is a formidable enemy, but I'm also quite worried about the Orc army."
Just as the Orc Lord was about to finish off Rimuru, a demon appeared and flew down from the sky, smashing a hole in the ground.
It turned out that when Lu Tianyu released his magic, Grumid, who was secretly observing, saw Lu Tianyu release his magic and instantly kill the pig-headed army. He felt that the plan had gone wrong, so he came over in person.
"How dare you ruin my plan, Grumid!" Grumid shouted angrily, pointing at Lu Tianyu who had just flown over.
"Grumid? Oh, that weakling who gave Gavilu his name?" Lu Tianyu was initially puzzled, but then suddenly realized.
"Just a hair's breadth away from the birth of a new Demon King who can be my right-hand man!" Grumeid roared.
"The new Demon King?" Benimaru asked in confusion.
“That’s right, I’m naming things everywhere and spreading seeds so that the strongest piece will be born,” said Gromed.
"So, you've come to our village for this too?" Benimaru and the others glared angrily at Grumeid.
"Oh, isn't this Lord Grumeid? Are you here to help us too?" Gavilu, who had rushed over, asked Grumeid with delight.
Grumid looked at the delighted Gavilu and cursed, "Useless idiot, you'll become fertilizer for the Pig-Headed Emperor too!"
"Oh no!!" Gavilu exclaimed, looking at Grumeid.
"Go and be eaten by the Pig-Headed Emperor, become his power. You can die for me, feel honored!" Grumi said arrogantly, then turned to the Pig-Headed Emperor behind him and said, "Attack the Pig-Headed Emperor, kill them all!"
"What's this about becoming a Demon King?" the Pig-Headed Emperor asked Grumeid, puzzled.
"Tch, foolish fellow," Grumeid muttered under his breath, then said to the Pig-Headed Emperor, "You must become the Demon King and rule the Great Jura Forest. That's what that lord and I have been hoping for."
Seeing the unmoved Pig-Headed Emperor, Grumid angrily shouted, "What are you standing there for, you pig-headed idiot?"
Turning to Lu Tianyu and his group, he said, "There's no time. Although we were ordered not to do it ourselves, we have no choice but to do it ourselves."
Dark red magic energy condensed in his hand, and he unleashed a powerful strike at Lu Tianyu and the others: "Die!"
Lu Tianyu stared at the approaching beam of magic, too lazy to even raise his hand. To the disbelief of Gavilu and the others, the beam vanished the moment it reached a meter in front of Lu Tianyu.
Lu Tianyu looked at the person in front of him with a puzzled expression, who was shouting, "I've never seen the terror of a high-level demon." Where did he get his confidence from?
The demon, still shouting, suddenly saw Lu Tianyu and the others unharmed and exclaimed in surprise, "How is this possible?"
"You mean that one just now? It was like scraping my skin with a cupping treatment." After saying that, he went up and lightly punched it, sending it flying. He mocked, "And this is the mastermind? He talks too much."
Covered in blood, Grumid stood up in disbelief and quickly turned to the Pig-Headed Emperor behind him, shouting, "Help me, Pig-Headed Emperor, Krut!"
Upon hearing this, the Pig-Headed Emperor slowly stepped forward, carrying his large sword.
"Finally, he's moved! This piece of trash!" Grumid cursed at the pig-headed emperor who stepped forward, then turned to Lu Tianyu and the others and laughed arrogantly, "Hahahaha, let's see how powerful this guy is!"
The next second, the Pig-Headed Emperor chopped off his head with a single blow, and he collapsed to the ground, beginning to eat.
After eating, black light began to emanate from the Pig-Headed Emperor's body.
"Warning, Orc Emperor, the magic power of the individual named Krut has increased, initiating the evolution into a Demon Lord... Success! Individual Krut has successfully evolved!" The Great Sage reminded Rimuru in his mind.
"Roar! I am the Pig-Headed Demon King, the one who will devour everything, named Krut, Demon King Krut!" the evolved Pig-Headed Demon King roared.
Looking at Kruto, who had completed his evolution and reached the peak of the third tier, Lu Tianyu thought, 'It seems that in this world, to become a fourth-tier demon king, one must evolve into a true demon king. No, except for Rimuru, who is already a fourth-tier demon king.'
Lu Tianyu looked at Kruto and said to Rimuru, "Rimuru, shall you do it or shall I?"
"Let me do it. After all, he's my opponent, so please let me handle it." With that, Rimuru stepped forward.
Kruto, seeing Rimuru approaching, immediately unleashed his ultimate attack: "Devour Everything {Chaos Devour}".
Rimuru watched the Devouring Shadow fly towards him. If it were just his original self, he would have had to fight a fierce battle, but now...
Kruto, watching Rimuru casually dodge his attack and then slice off his arm with a single sword strike, yelled, "How is this possible?"
With a roar that erupted from its entire body, Rimuru shouted, "I'm going to eat you right now!"
Rimuru looked at the screaming Orc Lord and said with pity, "Let me end your sins. I'll deal with you now."
Kruto looked at Rimuru, who stood unsuspectingly in front of him, grabbed him, and said, "I'll eat you."
Rimuru looked at the pig-headed demon king who was about to eat him and laughed, "Let's see if you eat me first, or I eat you first. I'm a slime, after all."
{Devourer}
Rimuru transformed into his blue slime form and attached himself to the Orc Lord, beginning to devour him. He slowly enveloped the Orc Lord completely.
Looking at the battlefield where victory was already assured, Lu Tianyu had no reason to worry. If Rimuru from the original world could defeat the Orc Lord, then Rimuru in the present world was even more formidable.
