Reincarnated in another world, I also want to be invincible at the beginning

He will die with that blow.

The red-haired demon was so stiff that he couldn't move.

"Little Lord!"

The rest of the big ghost tribe immediately stepped forward to protect this big ghost. When they heard the name, they knew that the identity of this big ghost was not simple. He was the young master of their tribe.

"Your Excellency, are you... the Demon King?"

The old man from the big ghost tribe asked Xiaobai nervously.

Xiaobai didn't answer.

She is only responsible for protecting Xiao Si.

Don't worry about anything else.

She would chop whoever Xiao Si asked her to chop.

"Rimuru, how about taking them in? The Demon King has set his sights on this forest. You will face the Demon King sooner or later. Taking in these homeless demons and getting information about the Demon King at the same time is a win-win situation."

"..."

Rimuru didn't know how Xiao Si thought he could subdue these people. Didn't he see that they were not convinced now? What's more, you must know more about the information of the Demon King than them!

[Chapter 38: Crisis of the Forest]

"I'm doing this for your own good. Have you forgotten that you still have a mission to go to the Kingdom of Ingracia after the city is built? But if you leave, the Goblins and Garou won't be able to protect the city, and you still lack powerful high-level units. The Great Oni have great potential. If they can get your name, they will probably be able to evolve into Oni-men, which is also a superior race among monsters, enough to protect the city when you are not at home."

What you said does make sense.

But the problem is that they may not be willing to do so!

Rimuru shouted in his heart.

Can you please stop making things sound so simple?

Xiao Si showed a puzzled expression.

"But it's that simple. It's time for you to adapt to the rules of monsters. Monsters' rules are not as complicated as humans'. There is only one rule for monsters, and that is the law of the jungle in nature. It is normal for the weak to succumb to the strong. You are stronger than all of them combined, and you promised to name them and help them get revenge. There is no reason for them to refuse. You can ask them themselves."

When the big ghosts didn't know how to communicate, Gobuta came up to them enthusiastically and explained in a low voice: "Master Koji can read minds."

It turned out to be the case.

The big ghost tribe expressed their understanding.

Then he was even more surprised. He didn't expect that there were such powerful people hiding in this Jula Forest.

The red-haired demon noticed Rimuru's gaze.

"This lady is right. The rule of monsters is that the strong prey on the weak. You have just demonstrated your strength and defeated us. If you are willing to promise to help our clan avenge us and give us a name, we, the Great Ghost Clan, are willing to submit to you."

If that's the case there's hope for revenge.

Almost all the big ghosts think so.

They knew that they could not really take revenge. It was difficult to even kill the masked demon, let alone take revenge on the Demon King.

But if it is these adults, there will definitely be hope of revenge for their clan!

"......Um, can you tell me what's going on first, about that Demon King thing." Rimuru was forced into a difficult position, but he was a seasoned man after all, and knew that he couldn't agree to such things casually. Although the Great Demon Clan had great potential, the target of their revenge was the Demon King!

Accept the Great Ghost Clan.

It might attract the attack of the Demon King.

This must be considered carefully.

"Yes, the story started a month ago. At that time, a masked demon came to our village and said to us, 'I will give you a name.' However, the sneaky look of the demon made our clan very unhappy, so our clan rejected the demon and drove him out of the village. In the end, the demon made a harsh statement that he would make us regret it."

Rimuru didn't know what to say when he heard this.

Is that demon stupid?

You're doing this, aren't you telling others openly?

I have a conspiracy and I am here to trick you. How can ghosts cooperate with you? Even if monsters really want names, they will not easily agree to be named by a sneaky person.

Not to mention that the Great Ghost Clan is a monster that is powerful enough even without a name. They don't have a strong desire to have a name or not. You ran to them with a bad look on your face, and you couldn't beat the Great Ghost Clan. Aren't you making trouble?

"And he came back for revenge?"

"No, after he disappeared for a while, a group of pig-headed people suddenly attacked our village. At first, we didn't take the pig-headed people seriously, but we were wrong, because the army of pig-headed people was as high as 100,000, and the Pig-headed King also got a name. Considering the cruel words that the demon said when he escaped, we thought that the Pig-headed King was related to the demon. We didn't know what to do after escaping, and we only wanted to avenge our clan!"

After listening to the explanation of the young master of the demon clan, Rimuru looked at Xiao Si beside him. It seemed that the demon clan itself did not know the inside story, so he had to ask Xiao Si.

"Xiao Si, what's going on with the Demon King?"

"That demon is a subordinate of the Demon King. That's what happened. I heard that the Demon Kings recently felt that life was too peaceful and boring. In addition, there has not been a Demon King born in a long time, so they planned to create a new Demon King. In short, in one sentence, those Demon Kings were bored, so they started to stir up trouble."

"That demon is giving names everywhere, right?"

"It's just as you thought. He is spreading seeds. When he sees monsters with potential, he will give them names, just like raising Gu. In the end, a Demon King will be born among these monsters. So far, their plan has succeeded. The Pig Head King has evolved into the Pig Head Emperor, and after destroying the village of the Great Ghost Clan, he has obtained the qualifications of the Demon King Seed. Next, he will continue to evolve into a Demon King and destroy this great forest."

Xiao Si's words fell.

Including the Great Demon Clan, Rimuru and others were all shocked. The former was because of the reputation of the Pig-Head Emperor, and the latter did not expect that this would be a crisis for the entire forest, which means that his city was also included!

"It's actually the Pig-Head Emperor?!"

The big ghosts showed a look of panic on their faces.

When Rimuru saw their expressions, he realized that the Pig-Head Emperor was not simple. Is the Pig-Head Emperor very powerful?

"It's OK. The Pig-Headed Emperor has a unique skill, [Hunger], which has a similar effect to your [Predator]. However, this skill has a very strong side effect, which is hunger. No matter how much food you eat, you will not feel satisfied and will keep eating. And unlike your [Predator], the Pig-Headed Emperor can share this skill with his subordinates."

Rimuru thought about it and shuddered. Is this okay? An army of 100,000 can become stronger through predation. This is simply an invincible army!

"Yes, if they have enough food, then they are indeed invincible, but there is simply not enough food for them, and the Pig-Headed Emperor himself also needs more food. In other words, although the army of Pig-Headed People looks scary, it is actually not very strong. The only one we need to be careful of is the Demon King Pig-Headed Emperor. If he continues to eat, he will probably awaken and become a Pig-Headed Demon King soon. And because of the side effects of [Hungry], he will keep eating."

"So I said you have no choice. The Demon King has never taken you seriously from the beginning. One of their decisions made all the monsters in the Jura Forest become sacrifices. If you want to protect the city you are building, you are destined to be their enemy. So Rimuru, go eat the Pig-Headed Emperor and become the Demon King."

After hearing the bewitching words of the angel, Rimuru carefully recalled everything that had happened after he walked out of the sealed cave, and found that he seemed to have been tricked by the angel from the very beginning. This angel with a bad temper probably wanted him to become the Demon King from the very beginning!

Even the plans of those demon kings were used by her.

This angel is so scary.

Rimuru covered his forehead helplessly: "Since the Pig-Head Emperor cannot be negotiated, then we can only conquer him. But let me consider becoming the Demon King."

You can't just refuse.

Because I can't beat it.

[Chapter 39: I am the one who is really cunning]

Xiao Si had no intention of forcing Rimuru to correct his naive thoughts immediately.

Anyway, this is already a done deal.

From the moment he was reincarnated as a monster slime, Rimuru was destined to become the Demon King.

Only beings of the same level as the Demon King can fight against the Demon King, and the possibility of a slime evolving into a hero is almost zero. As for why Rimuru would fight against other Demon Kings, this is also inevitable. Since Rimuru wants to establish a country, this kind of thing will happen sooner or later.

Although Rimuru does not have this awareness yet, thinking that he is just building a city and has not thought about establishing a country, let alone becoming a monarch, but that is just because Rimuru is too Buddhist. In Xiao Si's eyes, the construction of the Monster Kingdom is being completed bit by bit, and the progress is considerable.

Although Rimuru wanted to avoid a confrontation with the Demon King, he was kindhearted and decided to take in the demons and gave them names.

He never learned his lesson and gave names to all the members of the Great Ghost Clan at once, and fell into a deep sleep once again.

After all, Rimuru is not even a demon king now. If he had not absorbed some eggshell fragments from Xiao Si when he was born, and had a passive power bank in his body, Rimuru's magic power would not have been able to complete such a huge task at once. You should know that even some demon kings cannot evolve so many monsters in a short period of time. You can see how exaggerated what Rimuru did was. If it were someone else, they would have died countless times by now. They are not like him who only sleeps for a few days and wakes up still lively as if nothing happened.

Xiao Si saw that the evolved big demons took the initiative to take care of Rimuru, so she didn't bother to care about Rimuru. The last time she brought Rimuru back was because she was worried that the goblins and Garo could not protect Rimuru's safety. However, after these big demons evolved into demons, they were already very powerful monsters. Unless they encountered opponents at the demon king level, no one would be able to defeat them.

"Wait a moment, sir."

When the young demon clan leader named "Benimaru" by Rimuru saw Xiao Si was about to leave, he hurried forward to keep him. He had one more thing he wanted to know from Xiao Si.

"Excuse me, do you know which demon king is the master of the demon Krumit?" When the ghosts heard this question, they all looked over here for a moment.

Xiao Si did not hide anything and betrayed Clayman. Anyway, the purpose of this puppet, Clayman, was to take the blame. His value was to cause trouble in public, and then all the profits would go to them. In the end, one person would take all the blame and die.

This is the position that Clayman holds in her heart.

Although some of the souls caused by the killings of the Pig-Head Emperor have now fallen into her hands, if she did not want the plan to continue, she could have left no soul for the Pig-Head Emperor. She is actually the real mastermind behind this plan, but who knows the truth? Anyway, these things were controlled by Clayman from beginning to end. No one knew that Clayman had become her puppet. Once Clayman died, no one except her and Xiaobai would know the truth.

"Devil King——Clement!!!"

The ghosts chanted the name with murderous intent.

Xiao Si left the place calmly.

It seems that Clayman must die, and these truths must not be known to others. Even if she did not control Clayman, that guy's original plan would have the same consequences, but the fact is that she let Clayman continue to carry out the plan even though she knew that this kind of thing would happen. Therefore, if the truth is known to others, the object of hatred of these ghosts will become her, the real mastermind.

"Xiao Si."

"Don't worry."

Xiaobai also thought of the same thing. She felt that it was a very risky act for Xiaosi to let Rimuru accept these demons. Given Rimuru's character, if he knew the truth, he would most likely stand on the side of the demons. They should just eliminate these demons.

"Shhh."

Xiao Si put his finger to his mouth.

"Although I can block the surveillance of those tree elves, I still need to be aware that there are some things that cannot be said. And since I have done it, I am not afraid of bearing the consequences. When I have completed what I want to do, the truth will no longer matter."

Because then she will be invincible.

After all, from the very beginning, she was in a different position from everyone else. The so-called Demon King and the Hero were just objects of observation for her to analyze the power of the God of Creation. What she had to do had always been clear, which was to establish a church and gather believers.

As long as the church is formally established, she will awaken again and obtain a second priesthood, and the priesthood she wants to seize is naturally the priesthood of an omniscient and omnipotent representative - God. In this way, she will obtain the two ultimate priesthoods of creation and dusk, and because she has stolen a part of God's power and obtained a part of omniscience and omnipotence, even if the God of Creation is resurrected, she can be on equal terms with the God of Creation. It doesn't matter whether these truths are exposed or not, because she will be invincible at that time.

What's more, what she did was so secretive.

And Kleiman is the one who takes the blame.

If this could still be discovered by others, then she would have nothing to say. She could only say that fate might want these demons to die, otherwise how could these demons know the truth? After all, even with Rimuru, they were as weak as babies in swaddling clothes in front of her. Even now, if she wanted to destroy this place, it was nothing more than a matter of slapping it hard.

She smiled and held Xiaobai's hand, saying, "Don't worry, all changes are under my control. I will handle everything."

Xiaobai looked at Xiaosi in silence.

(Did I put too much pressure on Xiao Si? D's affairs should be my own business. Xiao Si, who had already escaped, no longer needed to return to that world. But I took advantage of Xiao Si's amnesia and asked her to help me find a way to deal with D.)

Xiao Si's expression changed for a moment. She didn't know whether Xiaobai did it on purpose or not, but she decided to pretend that she didn't know about it. It had nothing to do with amnesia or not. At least she knew what risk Xiaobai took to steal her eggs from the Storm Dragon. Although the Storm Dragon actually had no ill will towards them, Xiaobai didn't know this at the time.

She didn't tell Xiaobai

Said.

In fact, before she was born, she had the ability to observe what was happening outside. Her previous state of ignorance was just an act. Her amnesia was indeed real, but she maintained this state because she thought it was beneficial to herself. The reason why her divine power can be concealed at present is because of her amnesia, but if she remembers her past memories and contacts her previous believers, her divine power will be restored to its heyday and can no longer be hidden as perfectly as it is now.

In fact, she is the real cunning person.

[Chapter 40: The harvest moment of the plan]

As the Pig-Head Emperor continued to kill, the souls he needed were soon satisfied. In order to prevent others from noticing the accident, Si also specially allocated a part of her magic power to the Pig-Head Emperor's troops, allowing the troops to continue to strengthen and prevent others from seeing that the souls they preyed on were intercepted halfway. Moreover, she did not touch the Pig-Head Emperor's part. In this way, unless someone with attainments in souls that exceeded hers came to check it out personally, it would be impossible to discover the trick. But regardless of whether there is such a person, even if there is such a person, by the time they react, the matter would have been over.

And Xiaobai also secretly completed the awakening without anyone knowing. Next, she only hoped that the Pig Head Emperor would continue to be powerful and let her awaken the Shadow Guard as well. She was really satisfied with the Pig Head Emperor, because this guy was not sensitive to the absorption of souls because his mind was controlled by the skill. So even if she did not touch the part of the soul that the Pig Head Emperor wanted to absorb, she still harvested a large number of souls. After all, with her attainments in soul technology, there would not be any waste, and she could achieve perfect collection and utilization.

Simply put, if you can get her assistance, she can make the process of awakening the Demon King more efficient and simple. It is not as efficient as the Pig-Head Emperor and Rimuru who can just use skills. You must know that even if you use skills to absorb, you can achieve a certain degree of perfect swallowing, but under the reincarnation system of the world, a part of the true spirit will still return to the inner sea of ​​the world. But if Xiao Si comes to collect souls, then even the last bit of true spirit will not be left behind. It can be said that the origin of the world is robbed. This approach is naturally wrong, but if it is just a little bit, it will probably not matter much.

Yes, she knew that this approach was wrong, because if it continued like this, the world's circulation system would go wrong, with only expenditure and no recovery, and eventually the world might be destroyed.

But now she urgently needs to awaken Xiaobai and Shadow Guard to become demon kings, so she took such a risk, and she has made an agreement with the world's restraining force that in the future she will give part of her true spirit to the world as a reward. In other words, this is a loan, and the interest rate is super high. Otherwise, the world's restraining force would have called the backstage, that is, the pretending to be dead creator god, to come out and deal with her, a thief.

But this is the situation now.

It was obvious that the Inhibition Force was very interested in Xiao Si's true spirit and was very happy to complete the deal with Xiao Si.

Let’s not mention the things Xiao Si did secretly.

Now everyone knows that the Pig-Headed Emperor has invaded the forest. Even the Lizardmen have begun to send requests for help to the Goblin village. Naturally, Rimuru and the others were the first to know about this.

Although Rimuru has not yet recruited all the goblins in the Jura Forest as his subordinates, in fact, all the goblins took the initiative to approach them after learning about this city. As long as Rimuru agrees, all the goblins in the forest will immediately belong to Rimuru's power.

So when the goblin villages received the Lizardmen's request for rescue, they immediately told Rigurd and the others about it, and now they gathered in the conference room to discuss this matter.

"It seems like we really have to go out and fight the Pig-Head Emperor. That guy has no intention of stopping. If we don't defeat him, we will be targeted by the Pig-Head Army sooner or later."

Rimuru originally wanted to be a coward, but he didn't expect that the Pig-Head Emperor's advance would be so fierce. He had reached the territory of the Lizardmen so quickly. After passing the swamp area, he would be very close to them. If he didn't take action, once the Pig-Head Army destroyed the Lizardmen, the Pig-Head Emperor's power would become even stronger, and it would be even more difficult to defeat the Pig-Head Army at that time.

"If Lord Rimuru takes action, the Pig-Headed Emperor will be easily captured!"

The demon general Benimaru said with great pride.

The magic power of this lord is beyond imagination. It can make all the members of their great ghost clan evolve into legendary ghost people. This is something that some demon kings cannot do. How could the mere Pig-headed Emperor be the opponent of this lord? The lord did not take action before, probably because he did not take the weakling like the Pig-headed Emperor seriously.
