But what did Slime do wrong?

Facing Rimuru's question, Abe Seimei didn't seem to intend to give a clear answer, but only slightly bent his eyebrows and smiled.

"There are a few things...it doesn't matter, it's not very important, it's not worth mentioning at all."

Abe Seimei didn't seem to want to delve into this matter too much, so he just wanted to skip this topic lightly: "Let me help Limuru find what you need?"

It's just that the young man who would smile warmly at him in the past didn't respond immediately this time, but just looked at him with a frown.Those golden and purple eyes clearly reflected the figure of the Onmyoji in front of him, almost occupying the entire pupil of the other party.

But Abe Seimei didn't seem to notice it, instead he urged Rimuru with his eyes, beckoning him to answer his own question.

Limulu opened her mouth, and when she was about to say something, she was keenly aware of some inconsistencies.

After all, he was still unwilling to doubt Abe Seimei, and he was unwilling to put these cold suspicions and calculations on the friends he recognized.

And it was precisely because he was unwilling to believe it from the bottom of his heart, so after careful observation and comparison, Limulu actually found some very faint sense of disobedience that would be ignored if he didn't pay attention.

The young man narrowed his eyes like a cat.

"I told Qingming before, I'm going to look for records about Shinto."

Lim showed up as if nothing had happened, walked to the front of the bookshelf, looked at the books on it seriously, and completely showed his back to this "Abe Seimei".

"Ah, this book looks interesting."

Limulu's eyes locked on a certain layer of the bookshelf, she stood on her tiptoes and stretched her arms to get it.Because of this movement, his sleeves naturally slipped off, exposing his wrist and even a small part of his arm.

Therefore, because of this reason, the black magic circle above his wrist looks very conspicuous.

Abe Seimei stood behind Limuru, but his eyes could not help but drift towards the spell on the opponent's wrist.

He is an Onmyoji after all.Moreover, he is also an onmyoji with profound attainments in onmyoji.

Therefore, when faced with such a technique that I have never seen before, I will feel curious and want to try to touch it... This seems to be a very natural thing.

"Rimuru."

Abe Seimei called him.

"Ok?"

The boy standing in front of the bookshelf turned around, his voice revealing a wave of confusion.

"What's the matter, Seimei?"

Abe Seimei stepped forward and grabbed his arm, so that the circle of black mantras could be fully displayed.

"Where did you meet this?"

The man who asked in this way lowered his head and traced the texture of the technique inch by inch with his gaze, his eyes were full of appreciation.

"gorgeous……"

Perhaps this is the case for an onmyoji, they will dismiss those noble ladies in gorgeous costumes and put on a clean look, but when they come into contact with a brand-new onmyoji, The performance is more enthusiastic than the [-]th girl who is in love.

Then, Abe Seimei heard Rimuru in front of him sigh a long sigh and laugh out loud, and there was a kind of relieved relaxation in that laugh.

"Green Lantern."

Rimuru did not answer Abe Seimei's question immediately, but called the big demon's name.

Originally, the pendant that had hidden her figure and turned into a palace lantern, the green lantern adorned on Limulu's belt appeared in response, and with her bare hands lightly raised, several faint blue lights were scattered on the ground following her movements. Every corner of the room was illuminated, and then there was a glimmer of light floating up from each lamp, connecting them into one piece, forming a translucent, "cover" like thing, covering the three people present. in it.

When the "cover" was completely lowered, the surroundings were no longer the inside of the Book Collection Pavilion in Yinyang Liao, but another...somewhere.The grass growing on the ground is silver-colored, with small crystal blue flowers growing lushly in the middle.

Beyond this strangely colored meadow, there is an endless glacier as far as the eye can see. The snow is piled up all over the ground, and it seems that except for the blue flowers blooming under their feet, Apart from the road, there is no other place to set foot.

This is one of Qing Xing Deng's abilities. What they are in now is not the outside world, but the palace lantern that Qing Xing Deng always holds in his hand.

"Limuru? What is this for?"

Abe Seimei stood on the spot, frowning, and looked at Rimuru with puzzled eyes, but it seemed that he had no intention of doing anything.

"You ask me where I met this?"

Limuru glanced at the spell on his wrist, and showed a not-so-friendly smile to the onmyoji in front of him.

"Perhaps, you remember?"

"This is when we first met in the ghost city, in order not to let me hurt humans, so you and I exchanged names and wrote down the agreement."

Limuru said so, without giving the person in front of him a chance to react, he stretched out his hand and grabbed the other person's wrist, and pulled away his sleeve.

The same spot on the wrist of "Abe Seimei" is clean, nothing.

But this is incorrect.

Because the "contract" has not been touched, it still exists.

"Where's your contract, Seimei?"

Limulu laughed.

"Or... you are not Qingming, who are you? Why do you come to see me in the name of Qingming?!"

When she said the last sentence, Rimuru's voice suddenly rose.He was clearly just a young man, but when facing an enemy who was far taller and stronger than him, he didn't lose a bit in terms of momentum, and even faintly meant to go over one end.

The person restrained by him realized that he had leaked the truth, so he also put away the fake gentleness on his face, and his smile suddenly became treacherous and evil.

"Hey? Has it been exposed so soon?"

This Abe Seimei let out a long sigh, but it didn't sound like there was any regret in it.

Rimuru frowned and labeled the other party.

...is a frivolous, malicious person.

"Why do you use Qingming's appearance? What are you going to do when you approach me?" Limulu paused, "Qingming...what did you do to Qingming?"

"Look at what you said, what can I do to Abe Seimei? I have to have that ability too, don't I?"

Although Limulu had already recognized him, the person in front of him was vicious and didn't intend to take off that layer of disguise on his body, as if he was deliberately using this appearance to bluff into the market.

"You colluded with Yamata no Orochi."

Limuru grasped the opponent's arm more forcefully.

"why?"

If Yamata no Orochi really returns to this world, it should be that humans have suffered far more damage than monsters, right?

But why, the first to turn against Yamata no Orochi—even when the other party is only out of the seal—is it actually a human being?

The onmyoji who was being questioned by him lowered his head, looked at the mask on the boy's face that covered his entire face tightly, and let out a low laugh from his throat.

"A big monster like you who was born with extraordinary talent and strength, standing at the highest position of power, shouldn't be able to understand weak humans like us?"

Black mist emerged and lingered around his body, and in the end, it almost enveloped him in it. At first glance, it looked as if he was born and conceived from the black mist.

"As weak, humble, and unbearable human beings, we want to live a better life, and want to obtain a stronger power that can control our own destiny—in order to achieve this goal, I—we will do whatever it takes."

"Even if the drug is dedicated to one's own conscience, belief, and soul...but why not?!"

"...Tsk!"

Rimuru let out an extremely impatient click of her tongue.

"This is all an excuse you made for yourself!"

Rimuru herself was once human.

Slime has never been a race at the top of the pyramid—it is better to say that it is the bottom of the food chain.

However, even so, Limulu had never thought about it before.

Weakness is not a reason to wantonly hurt others.

"Whatever you say."

The Onmyoji let out a low laugh, and a light and shadow like a black pool appeared under his feet, and countless black long snakes jumped out of it, and opened their mouths towards Limulu, about to bite.

Qing Xingdeng snorted coldly, and saw several blue lights shooting down the snakes; but this was obviously not a good solution, because the killed snakes not only did not disappear, but instead multiplied rapidly.

The black air overflowing from them even reversed, devouring the blue lights released by those green lanterns, assimilating them into the existence on their side.

Qing Xingdeng: "...Huh?"

She frowned, and raised her hand to summon the grotesque in her hundred stories.

Rimuru stopped her.

"It's not necessary, Qing Xingdeng, that will only increase the opponent's combat power for no reason."

"Those snakes are extremely polluting... However, there is no solution."

Limulu's eyes sharpened.

"The King of Gluttony!"

The author has something to say:

Rimuru: Come, let's see who devours whom.
