"???" Rimuru.

Chapter 208 I'm Still Alive

At this moment, Shion slung the Gorilla Maru over her shoulder and said with a smile, "Then, Lord Rimuru, please have some!"

"Hehe... Okay, I'll eat it."

Rimuru chuckled foolishly, looking at the bowl in front of him. A purple aura emanated from it, and a murky, bubbling broth floated within. Unidentified objects floated on top of it.

'Whether this kind of food can even be called a dish is questionable...and it's not surprising that eating too much of it would lead to 'poison resistance.'

Rimuru glanced at Lu Tianyu, who was constantly adding various buffs to himself, and Benimaru, who was trembling as he lifted the bowl.

'I've evolved into a Demon King! I can't possibly die from eating a dish, can I?'

As Rimuru used his fork to fiercely shovel something into his bowl, Lu Tianyu and Benimaru next to him also shoveled a piece... The three of them exchanged a glance.

"Exhale...inhale...exhale...inhale...."

Taking a few deep breaths, the three of them closed their eyes and took a bite.

"Smack...smack"

Across from them, Shion looked at the three with anticipation and confidence.

"It's delicious!" ×3

Lu Tianyu and the other two looked at each other excitedly. They hadn't expected to fight! Although Ziyuan's cooking was as ugly as ever, even somewhat indescribable, it was surprisingly delicious!

Rimuru lifted the bowl, stared intently at the contents, and exclaimed incredulously, "Don't let its appearance fool you, it tastes amazing!"

"How could this be!" Benimaru asked in surprise.

"Mhm!" Lu Tianyu nodded repeatedly from the side... but he always felt that things were not that simple.

"Hehe." Shion chuckled and explained, "Actually, because Lord Rimuru evolved into a Demon Lord, I gained a new skill, a unique skill, called 'Cook'."

"Cooking...people?" The three looked at Shion in confusion.

"As long as you have this skill, you can make the taste you want no matter how you cook it," Ziyuan explained.

"Is that so? That's great!" Rimuru laughed. Great! From now on, no matter how Shion is made, I can eat it!

"Wait!" Lu Tianyu shouted, "Ziyuan, you just said that no matter how it's cooked, right?"

“Yes.” Ziyuan nodded.

"What's wrong, Tianyu?" Rimuru looked at Lu Tianyu curiously. It was clearly a good thing that Shion got this skill.

“I was saying Rimuru…” Lu Tianyu whispered in his ear, “Do you remember Shion’s skill? The one where the more love you put into cooking, the more poisonous it becomes?”

"!!!"

Rimuru suddenly realized what was happening, looked at the bowl, and swallowed hard... No way!

Just as Rimuru was about to ask Shion if he had put any love into cooking, his vision suddenly went black and he collapsed instantly.

"Whoa!" Lu Tianyu looked at Rimuru lying on the ground and Benimaru foaming at the mouth beside him. Calmly, he took out a bed from his spatial ring and pounced on it the next second.

"Lord Rimuru, Lord Tenyu, what's wrong with you!"

"Waaaaah ┭┮﹏┭┮, Benimaru, don't die!"

...

...

The next day, Lu Tianyu slowly opened his eyes and was greeted by an unfamiliar ceiling.

"Tianyu, you're awake." Spider sat beside him, looking at Lu Tianyu who had just woken up.

"Oh, it's Spider!" Lu Tianyu sat up, checked himself to make sure there was nothing wrong with his body.

"I survived!"

Who would have thought that Long Sheng's first near-death experience was due to a meal, almost setting a new record for the most pathetic way for a transmigrator to die! Thank goodness, he survived!

"What are you talking about?" Spider said to the crazy Lu Tianyu, "With your body, even a million times the amount of poison wouldn't hurt you."

"No, Spider, let me explain." Lu Tianyu jumped out of bed and gestured in front of Spider, "It's not about whether it's poisonous or not, it's completely that kind of twisted feeling, like it's invading your soul, that indescribable sensation..."

"Hey hey hey! I got it!" Spider waved casually. She wasn't sad at all about Lu Tianyu's current state; in fact, she was a little happy. "You wanted to drag me down with you last night!"

Live it!

"By the way, where are Rimuru and Benimaru?" Lu Tianyu looked around the room but didn't see them. He remembered that in the last second before he passed out last night, he thought he heard Benimaru say, "Don't die."

“Rimuru is already receiving today’s guests.” Spider thought for a moment and continued, “As for Benimaru… he had a stomach lavage last night and is resting now. We were going to do it for you too, but your body is too tough. We tried five machines and they still couldn’t break your teeth. After confirming that you were alright, we moved it here.”

"Oh! There are many roads!" Lu Tianyu said, slapping his forehead.

"What kind of Japanese is that?" Spider-Man retorted.

"Do you want to learn Lu-style Japanese? I can teach you!"

"I don't want to learn that."

After saying that, Spider Girl turned and walked out. Benimaru wasn't there today, so she had to go and support Rimuru.

"Wait for me."

Lu Tianyu quickly jumped off the bed and followed him.

...

...

In the conference hall.

Rimuru nodded as he watched Spider-Man and Lu Tianyu walk in, and then Lu Tianyu and Spider-Man sat down in their seats.

"Everyone, I'm sure you all already know each other, but let me formally introduce you anyway," Rimuru said, pointing to the demon beside him. "This is our newest member, Diablo. Although he's a newcomer, he's very strong and reliable. I plan to make him my second secretary, so please get along well with him."

Beside him, Diablo placed one hand on his chest and bowed slightly, saying, "I hope you will all give me your guidance and encouragement in the future."

Everyone looked at Diablo and nodded.

“Teach him about work-related matters,” Rimuru said to Shion, who was standing beside him.

"As ordered."

“Hmm.” Rimuru nodded and looked down. “Then it’s Gabiru….”

"Yes!" Gavilu quickly stood up and looked at Rimuru.

"Starting today, I'm handing over the R&D department to you. Although the position is temporary, you're now considered a manager, so do a good job!"

Gabiru looked at Rimuru with excitement and immediately said, "Yes, sir! I, Gabiru, will serve you to the death!"

"That's great!"

"Lord Gavilu is the best!"

Outside, Gavilu's younger brother began to cheer.

“Mm.” Rimuru nodded and continued, “Then, I’d like to announce our future policy, which is also related to Yhorm and the three orcs.”

................

Sitting in their seats, Lu Tianyu and Spider looked at Rimuru, who was handling things with ease and increasingly resembling a leader, and smiled with satisfaction.

Then, Spider-Zone started a live stream to witness this moment.

On the other side, Rimuru, who was discussing future plans, suddenly stammered...

Chapter 209 - Ramiris

"Lord Rimuru, what's wrong?" Shion asked, looking at Rimuru who seemed stuck.

"It's nothing." Rimuru shook his head, glancing furtively at the two guys who were laughing carefree.

Then, ignoring Lu Tianyu and Spider Girl, Rimuru looked at everyone seriously and said, "I have decided to become the Demon King."

"Yes," Zhu Cai replied with a smile.

"Huh?" Rimuru looked at Shuna, who showed no surprise at all, and raised his hand again, saying, "I meant, to become the Demon Lord!"

"Yes."

"Uh (⊙o⊙)...to be the Demon King..."

Rimuru looked at the crowd who showed absolutely no surprise, as if he was destined to become the Demon King.

"Alright, alright, Rimuru will be the Demon King."

Spider-Man looked at the embarrassed Rimuru and laughed it off.

At this moment, Shuna said with a smile, "You're already the Demon King, aren't you!"

“That’s not what I meant,” Rimuru explained. “I meant that I’m going to announce to the world that I’m also a Demon Lord!”

"You mean you want to find other demon kings to investigate?" Old Bai asked, stroking his chin.

“That’s right! That’s exactly it!” Rimuru continued, “But it’s not just a general statement; the opponent is Kleman.”

"I see." At that moment, Benimaru, pale-faced, walked in and said, "You intend to seize the Demon King's throne yourself! How interesting!"

“That’s right!” Rimuru closed his eyes, recalling the various things that had happened recently.

"This whole thing was instigated by the devil Kleiman, and I have no intention of forgiving him."

Rimuru then shared all his thoughts with everyone.

"Hey, Tianyu!" Spider whispered in Lu Tianyu's ear, "What do you think about us capturing that Clayman and giving him to Rimuru as a gift?"

"Forget it, we'll go and help out then, we'll go to the Demon King's meeting together, and we'll just beat up that Clayman there."

"is it?"

"Well, Rimuru finally made up his mind, so we just need to see what he does. When it's time to fight, we'll just charge in."

"Well... I was actually thinking of trying what the so-called Demon King tastes like."

"........."

At that moment, the conference room door was suddenly kicked open.

"Lord Rimuru," Fitz said breathlessly, "the Kingdom of Bloom has come to our aid in accordance with the security treaty with Tempest!"
