Shaking his head, Senju searched for the timeline he should go to. Fortunately, there was a Star Grail mark there. Senju entered instantly and saw Rimuru being held by a black-haired girl, sitting on a sofa. But why did that girl look so familiar?

"Ah, boss, you're back again," Rimuru said helplessly to the suddenly appearing Senju while enjoying his girlfriend's caresses. "What happened just now? Did you go back?"

“No, I just went to another timeline,” Senju shook his head and briefly explained what happened. However, when he mentioned the girl's name, Rimuru couldn't help but raise his hand. “Wait, you mean Chloe Oberyl?! But she's right here! What will happen in the future?!”

“Well, I only saw a little bit. It seems that you died once in that timeline,” Senju shrugged, while the girl next to him spoke up excitedly, “Died once?! What are you talking about?!”

"And who is this?" Senju looked at Rimuru curiously. Rimuru nodded slightly and introduced them, "This is my girlfriend, Shizue, Izawa Shizue. And this is the boss I mentioned before, Senju."

“Hello, Lady Senju,” the girl smiled and nodded at Senju, who looked at her in surprise. “Hmm? Strange, you really look a lot like the Rimuru from the other world I met.”

"Me from another world? But my current form is because I devoured that girl, Anle. Me from another world... Ah, could it be?!" Rimuru exclaimed, then realized something. With the Star Grail, he could save his girlfriend, but what about his other self from other worlds...?

He shook his head, then looked at Senju, "Although I don't know why I died in the future, since Lord Senju encountered me, it means I will be resurrected. But what happened in between?"

“Well, I only saw a little bit,” Senju recalled the scene he saw in that timeline, “It seems that monsters and humans were fighting, and then you got killed.”

"..." Rimuru was speechless. The process was too simple, with hardly any information! However, the time loop issue he had mentioned earlier surprised him. The Great Sage was also analyzing the possibility of such an event, "It seems that many things will happen in the future."

"Well, there's no need to worry about that," Senju said, shaking her head as she looked at Rimuru sighing. "Your current strength is much greater than Rimuru's over there, so you shouldn't be easily killed."

“Probably,” Rimuru shook his head, while Senju continued talking about the other side, finally mentioning Milim and Chloe, who were probably the main characters. One was the daughter of the creator god, and the other possessed time-related abilities. The matter of time looping seemed to be related to them.

“The main character, huh?” Rimuru scratched his head. He actually thought he should be the main character, but if the other two were the main characters, then was he just a supporting character? That didn’t seem right!

After analyzing the situation, the Great Sage within him transmitted a possibility to Rimuru: "Time magic. There is very little existing data, making analysis difficult. It is recommended to conduct a comprehensive examination of Chloe."

"Hmm, an inspection," Rimuru thought to himself, when the person next to him...

The door opened, and a boy who looked very familiar to Senju walked in; he had seen him in the other world.

"Teacher Shizuka, Mr. Rimuru, who is the friend you mentioned?" The boy greeted them as he entered and looked at Senju curiously. Rimuru introduced them, "This is my friend, Mr. Senju. This is Kagurazaka Yuuki, the commander-in-chief of the Free Guild. He is also from Japan. Don't be fooled by his young appearance; he has actually been here for a long time."

Chapter 1264 Hometown

"Haha, don't let my young age fool you, I'm actually almost thirty," the boy said with a smile, extending his hand to Senju. "Hello, Mr. Senju, you can just call me Yuuki."

"Hello, Yuuki, just call me Senju," Senju nodded, habitually scanning the other person before a smile appeared on his face. Really, I didn't expect the other person to have some good stuff hidden away. It was definitely worth the trip!

Senju hadn't sensed anything wrong with the boy earlier. Although he had good physical abilities and some superpowers, that was about it. What Senju was concerned about was that the boy seemed to be favored by fate and vaguely pointed to a powerful weapon.

The two nodded to each other, then separated and sat down. Yuuki then took out a card. "Rimuru-sensei, this is the B-rank adventurer card we were talking about earlier. The name is already written: Mr. Senju."

"Hmm? Mine?" Senju asked in confusion. Rimuru explained simply, "That's right, Senju. Here, adventurer cards are like ID cards or bank cards. It'll be very troublesome without them."

"I see, thank you," Senju nodded and took the card. It was very well made and looked like an ID card, but Senju sensed a magic circle inside. "Not bad. By the way, I have some good stuff here too."

As she spoke, she took out the card registration device from Aqua's side. Rimuru, who was standing next to her, asked curiously, "What is this?"

"This is an adventurer card registration machine that I got from the adventurer guild in another world. It can read various data of adventurers and then selectively assign professions. It's a very convenient tool," Thousand Hands said proudly, patting the machine. He had no idea that this thing might cause a great war between various races. After all, with this and another type of adventurer card, adventurers could level up by killing monsters.

"A machine from another world?" Yuuki looked at Senju with curiosity. "Has Mr. Senju ever been to other worlds?"

"Well, I've been to many worlds," Senju nodded casually, just giving Yuuki a perfunctory reply. Senju was mostly focused on his treasure-hunting skills, searching this area. He found a lot of treasures, but nothing particularly powerful.

Have you ever been to Japan?

"Ah, I've been to many. Which one are you talking about?"

"Huh? What does that mean?"

The voices around her grew louder, and Senju snapped out of her daze. "Ah, you want to go back, right? But this world—well, no, this universe—well, no, anyway, there are many parallel Earths, and there are many different parallel Japans. I know more than a dozen, but I'm not sure which one you're talking about."

“Is that so? We can’t be sure where the real Japan is?” Yuuki fell silent, seemingly deep in thought. As for Senju, he went to rummage through a stack of manga books on the table.

"Interesting, a manga I haven't seen before?" Senju, who hadn't found any clues yet, went over and flipped through it. After a while, he saw a familiar manga. However, thinking about it, he hadn't actually read many Japanese manga besides those famous works, so Senju wasn't surprised that he hadn't seen the manga before.

"Well, these are works from my original world, there are quite a few good ones," Rimuru said smugly, while Senju returned a pile of manga to him, "These are manga produced in my world, there are quite a few good ones too."

"Waaaaah~" Rimuru, who was being crushed by the sea of ​​books, bubbled weakly. Senju, while absentmindedly looking at the manga, was communicating with the laws of this world. Speaking of which, why are the laws here so similar to those in D?! However, Senju did not delve into it, but instead kept searching for information about that weapon.

His mind then extended to the world's subordinate worlds, the material world and the spiritual world. Based on the creatures that lived there, angels and demons, Senju called two places there the Heavenly Realm and Hell. However, Senju ignored them and began a rapid search of this world.

However, the fluctuations emitted by Thousand Hands did alarm them. The group of gods and demons were suspicious for a while but did not find anything. However, at this time, Thousand Hands had already locked onto the strongest weapon in this world. It was a sword, a sword with the fluctuations of creation, forged by the creator god, the Star Emperor Dragon Horn Sword.

However, Senju looked to the side and saw that the location was quite far away. He decided to go and get it later. At that moment, Yuuki looked up at Senju and said, "Senju-sama, please send me back to Japan!"

“Sure,” Senju turned around, put down the comic, and nodded. “By the way, which Japan do you want to go to? The Warring States period where yokai roamed? The era around 2000 years ago where magicians were rampant? Or a future era with advanced technology and academies with superpowers?”

"Uh..." Yuuki was speechless for a moment, "Aren't there any more ordinary Japans?!"

“Yes, there is, but you,” Senju shook her head at him, “your current state…”

"The current state is too strong for ordinary people, but too weak for true gods and demons. That's why I chose these worlds for you. And you must be very familiar with the names of those worlds: Inuyasha, Fate, and A Certain Magical Index."

"Well, so it's all anime world, and there are such powerful moves," Yuuki suddenly became excited. Senju waved his hand and said, "Well, the story over there is over anyway. As long as you don't cause any trouble, you can live a good life there."

"Is it over?" Yuuki suddenly slumped down there, then weakly raised her hand. "I'll think about it some more and see if I can find my true hometown."

“Is that so?” Senju nodded. “It is possible to find your true hometown, but it will take some time and information to locate it.”

"Oh? So you mean it's possible to cross over," Yuuki slammed his hand on the table and sat up. "I knew it! Japan has its own legends of ghosts and monsters, so the two sides must be able to connect!"

"Hmm?" Senju was surprised for a moment. Why hadn't he thought of this idea before? He waved his hand, and a small crystal boat appeared in his hand. This was just a clone of the starship. It changed in Senju's hand and then formed a ring-shaped pair of glasses. "This is the locator, but it needs your memory as search criteria, such as the distribution of countries, the leaders of each country, and when major world events happened. The more specific the better."

"Huh?!" Yuuki seemed a bit flustered. He hadn't remembered much of this at all, but he had remembered quite a bit of the manga. "Can we use manga or TV information?"

Chapter 1265 Royal Capital Rella

"Hoo hoo hoo," Rimuru laughed smugly. He had transformed into human form without anyone noticing. "I've memorized the names of all the prime ministers throughout history. I'll leave this to you, sir."

“You don’t need this at all,” Senju shook his head. “If you strengthen your power a little more and comprehend the knowledge of space and time, you can go back on your own. Using this device now is just interfering with your perception of your original home coordinates.”

"Is that so? I don't quite understand," Rimuru said, looking puzzled. Senju explained briefly, "There are countless world coordinates. The machine's function is to make a selection based on the information it provides, so the more detailed the better. However, even so, there will always be a few worlds that are 99% similar. For example, some people might die in one world but be fine in another. In that case, you can just make a simple selection."

“I see,” Rimuru nodded, glancing at Yuuki beside him. “Yuuki, don’t use this for now. Once I find my hometown, I’ll take you back with me.”

“Hmm,” Yuuki nodded with a smile, then picked up the ring. “By the way, Mr. Senju, may I keep this for now?”

"Do as you please," Senju waved her hand dismissively, and Yuuki's smile widened. "But I'll be waiting for Rimuru-sensei's good news. I hope I won't have to use this."

“Oh, wait for my news,” Rimuru nodded there, then stood up. “Well then, thanks for your help today. We’re heading back to school now.”

"Hmm, take care, Rimuru-sensei, Shizuka-sensei, Senju-san," Yuuki smiled as he watched the three stand up. The door next to him opened, and a waitress stood there, seemingly to lead the way.

As the door closed, Yuuki's expression changed. Looking at the ring in his hand, he thought, "Parallel worlds, huh? Just because people in this world die doesn't mean people in the other world die too!"

He solemnly and slowly placed the ring on his head, and a voice came from the ring, "Connection initiated! Initiating search for world coordinates."

Led by the waiter, the three went downstairs. Senju realized that this seemed to be an adventurers' guild. However, unlike the bustling adventurers' guilds in the traditional magical world that Senju had seen before, this one was much cleaner and looked like a modern office lobby.

"By the way, who was that guy just now? This looks like the Adventurers' Guild," Senju belatedly asked Rimuru. Rimuru looked at Senju with a subtle expression. "That was the commander-in-chief of the Free Union, Kagurazaka Yuuki. The card he made for you was an Adventurer's Card."

“Yes, of course I know,” Senju nodded awkwardly. Seeing Rimuru’s suspicious gaze, Senju said confidently, “Look, didn’t I just give him a registration machine for adventurers from another world?”

“Hmm, that makes sense,” Rimuru nodded, “but something still feels off.”

"Don't worry about the details. This place is really different from the adventurers' guild I imagined," Senju said, changing the subject as she looked at the adventurers in front of the glass window. This place looks much more comfortable, even though it lacks the liveliness of the adventurers.

“Well, after all, it was Yuuki who made it. Everything was based on the Japanese.” Rimuru seemed to know what Senju was thinking. After all, he was just as surprised when he first arrived. The lively adventurers’ guild in the manga had turned into a cold and impersonal office hall!

"Automatic door," Senju thought, unsure how to react as she looked at the glass door that opened automatically.

If he hadn't just searched this world, he would have thought that the technology here was very advanced.

“Well, I was a little surprised when I first came here, but it’s probably the effect of magic,” Rimuru shrugged. “Besides, they’ve already developed large-scale glass production here.”

"Not bad," Senju thought, glancing at the smiling waiters who were seeing the three off. "They've really learned everything." But once they left, the outside world returned to normal, like a magical world. Senju shook his head speechlessly. "The generation gap is really huge."

“This is Rella, the capital of the Kingdom of Ingracia,” Rimuru introduced. Senju looked around. The most eye-catching building here was the huge, towering white castle in the center, and over there was the royal palace, which was said to be built in the middle of a lake.

The streets of the entire capital city extend in four directions from the city itself. The town is roughly divided into four major areas by these roads: commerce, tourism, industry, and residence. They are currently in the commerce area, while the Freedom Academy is in the residential area. Kagurazaka Yuuki is a director of this academy.

“It looks quite convincing,” Senju nodded, then shook his head, looking at the large glass window Rimuru had mentioned. “But the armor inside is rather ordinary, isn’t it? The work of a regular blacksmith?”

“Probably not,” Rimuru shook his head, looking at the price below. “Five hundred gold coins, that’s probably for a very valuable piece.”

“As expected,” Thousand Hands shook his head. “This is just an ordinary piece, worth only five hundred gold coins. I’ve seen armor worth hundreds of thousands of gold coins. That one has many enchantments and is made of high-grade metals. That one is the top-grade one.”

“Hmm, that makes sense,” Rimuru nodded, resting his chin on his hand. “The items made here are indeed inferior to those made by the dwarves.”

"What do you know?!" The glass door next to them opened, and the man who seemed to be the owner looked at the two of them with displeasure. "It's like you've seen some kind of high-grade armor before. This is a high-grade item that can withstand attacks from B-rank monsters!"

"Hehe," the two chuckled dryly, then left with Izawa Shizue. Along the way, Senju didn't buy much, while Rimuru told Senju about the students.

They were all teenagers and summoners. Due to their excessive magical power, their original lifespan was less than two years. However, after Rimuru's treatment, their condition has improved a lot. Rimuru has also come up with a way to cure them, which is to find elves to let them fuse.

Meanwhile, Izawa Shizue was also speaking in a low voice about her situation. She was originally a summoner, and when she came here, she was about the same age as several students. However, after fusing with the fire spirit, she has lived until now. But if Rimuru hadn't reminded her, she wouldn't have discovered this line of thought at all.

Chapter 1266 Students

"How much magic power do you have?" These words made Senju think of what gifts to prepare for the children. "I can create tools that absorb the magic power of living beings to make magic crystals."

With a wave of his hand, Qian Shou conjured five shimmering blue bracelets. "Using these can not only consume excess magic power, but also create high-value magic crystals."

"Really?" Shizue Izawa asked excitedly, while Rimuru frowned and shook his head. "No, boss, we absolutely can't let anyone know about this technology."

"Why?" Senju looked at him curiously. Rimuru said with a not-so-good expression, "It's because these children are 'useless' to those countries that they released them. But if they have the technology to mass-produce magic crystals, then those countries will summon even more heroes. At that time, even more children will be affected."

"Ah!" Shizue Izawa exclaimed softly, while Senju shook her head slightly. "What a boring world. It's broken. Let's make some 'suitable' weapons for them later, then there shouldn't be any problems."

“Well, although I feel it’s too early for the children to use weapons, I’ll leave this to you,” Rimuru nodded, then clapped his hands. “By the way, I just got some local specialties from Ainz Ooal Gown, so I’ll take the children on a picnic in the countryside.”

"Schools are really free," Senju muttered to himself. After a while, the three of them arrived at a 'school'. The school had a very simple structure: a wide lawn in front and a long, three-story building in the back.

"This is the world-famous Freedom Academy," Rimuru introduced, then talked about his future plans. "Although I only have five students now, I plan to build a school in the Monster Kingdom where monsters and humans can study together. That way, we can definitely eliminate the misunderstandings between the two sides."

“Well, that’s not easy to do,” Senju shook his head slightly, then nodded. “However, with your power, it’s quite simple to suppress the entire world, just like in your previous world.”

“But there’s no Star Grail world control device here,” Rimuru shook his head slightly. “Besides, those countries will summon heroes to fight me, which would only lead to more tragedies!”

"You really think a lot," said Senju. "But the world control device, huh?"

The voice gradually lowered. That Star Emperor Dragon Horn Sword must be quite powerful, but its control over the world? It's far inferior to the Star Cup.

Rimuru is really thinking too much. If it were him, he would just take control of the leaders of various factions, or show them his true power. But maybe they would do what Rimuru said and summon heroes to eliminate the Great Demon King. "Well, whatever you want. The most I can do now is to remove the enslavement spells that those countries use on the heroes during the summoning process."

"Huh! Is this even possible?" Rimuru asked in surprise. Senju nodded, and then Rimuru started calculating. "In that case, the heroes summoned by those countries might not be heroes anymore, they could be demon lords. What was originally a stable summoning process would become an unstable bomb. They would think twice before summoning, and maybe we could stop this kind of ritual."

“Yes, that’s what I think too,” Thousand Hands nodded. If the people summoned each time are uncontrollable, those countries probably won’t use it until the very end. The Hero Summoning Array will become a deterrent weapon like a nuclear bomb. However, this is on the premise that several countries have to be destroyed by the summoned 'heroes', and the process will be quite long.

However, there must be many 'heroes' in this world. Their current situations must be both good and bad. They were the first to resist this enslavement. "After checking on those children, let's remove the contract attached to the summoning."

“Well, but I severed their contract with the Star Grail before, so now,” Rimuru scratched his head, “it should be fine, right?”

"Um, well, we'll have to see to know. If that doesn't work, we'll have to find a hero whose contract hasn't been broken to analyze it," Senju said, speechless. So he'd already taken action! But thinking about it, it made sense; taking action to eliminate it was the right thing to do. Leaving it would be strange!

"Hahaha," Rimuru chuckled dryly, then walked inside. "Anyway, let's go see Chloe first. If everything's alright here, we'll go see Milim. But, the daughter of the Creator God... By the way, is the Creator God still alive?"
