Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken novel Chapter 200

As I was observing the battle between Milim and the Silver Haired Angel from the skies, I began to think that something was amiss.

The Silver Haired Angel is definitely usingŽJustice King Michael's "Castle Guard".

Confident that she'll be unaffected, she guides Milim's attacks into causing damage to the surroundings.

This is a major problem of course. But despite that, visually, the damage caused seems to be less than expected.

(Hey, if Milim were dishing out Full Power Attacks, wouldn't there be far more damage than what we're seeing now?)

ŠAffirmative. If it was a "real" attack by Milimƒ»Nava, she would reduce her castle to ashes in an instant.

Of the predicted possibilities, the damage may have been reduced from the effects of "Castle Guard".

Or, Milimƒ»Nava still retains her sanity, and is controlling her output.‹

Fumu.

So that's it huh.

Although she is emanating waves of anger that are enough to cause the atmosphere to shudder, there were no signs of her unleashing ultra high output attacks.

Only the castle tower was blown away at the start of the battle. It would be best to assume she still hasn't lost her sanity, and is suppressing her rage.

Which is also why,ŽJustice King Michael's domination abilities have not been activated.

If Milim were to have totally lost her sanity due to her rage, she would have been dominated almost immediately.

ŒDiablo!

ŒHa! I am here

From my summons, Diablo appeared behind me, ready to respond.

Kneeling behind him, were the 3 remaining devil lords.

ŒDiablo. You guys, go and get rid of the other 4 angels.

After that's done, go defeat Vega.

Though I sent Gobuta, just him alone is kinda worrying.

Also, one of you shall stay and be my support.

ŒUnderstood. We will finish up shortly, and move to support Rimuru-sama!

The representative Diablo answered, Testarossa and co. also nodded in unison.

Though those angels are on par with awakened demon lords, the demons are the more combat oriented ones among my guardian class followers. It'll be fine to leave this to them.

They are even in numbers, and Diablo is around too. I can believe they'll succeed.

ŒI'll leave that to you guys then!

After saying so, I began flying towards Milim.

As for the ones left behind, they seem to have begun arguing about who is going to be my support, it was fortunate that I didn't notice this.

Whoever won the spot, is really of little importance.

Among the ones who remained, a winner emerged from their "peaceful" discussion.

Diablo showed a gentlemanly smile, as he glares at the others.

Tch! And the like could be heard from the others, but the 3 of them didn't openly protest.

ŒKufufufufu. As expected, this went smoothly all thanks to your prudence.

A highly satisfied Diablo was smiling.

Then, with a glance, he turned his attention to the 4 angels with disinterest.

Velda's minions, 4 of the "Apostles of the End".

They were known as the Executioners(7 Angels of Crucifixion), and were the combat team in charge of close quarters combat.

This time, they were dispatched under Lucia's direct command.

As long as she had "Castle Guard", Lucia's safety is assured. They were around as a form of insurance.

But, their main aim, was to be Lucia's "sword".

The Ultimate SkillŽJustice King Michaelhas almost no means of directly attacking.

In other words, the Executioners are to be Lucia's hands and feet, weapons for the purpose of destroying enemies.

Michael's will, which has now became Lucia's ego, chose them for this purpose.

Toruneoto, who wields a Warhammer imbued with the lightning element, is a hulking muscular man.

Aria, who wields a Great Axe imbued with the fire element, has the looks of a small framed girl.

Oruca, who wields a Trident imbued with the water element, is a pretty lady with a slim and prim body.

Priscilla, who wields the Nine Tail. An item imbued with the wind element. Is average in build and height, has a prominent large bosom. Though her semi-closed eyes leave an impression, she gives off an "androgynous" air.[1]

The four of them, were calm and composed even when Diablo and co. suddenly appeared.

What that showed, was the confidence of the absolute strongest beings.

Their pride, as beings that have attained the powers of the highest class, Seraphims.

The demons and angels sized each other up, and quietly looked at one another.

ŒFumu. We have no time for games. Let's end this quickly.

The first to speak, was Diablo.

Testa, Ul and Carrera agreed.

ŒEnd this quickly, you say? Don't make me laugh puny demons.

There's no way you demons who have restricted evolutions, are able to reach us Seraphims, the highest of the angels.

For us who have been granted the powers of Seraphims from Velda-sama, we are the strongest existences, vastly superior to the mass produced army.

We easily outclass you lot.

Though it seems you bunch have become demon lord class, in the end your evolutions are still incomplete.

You shouldn't be letting your arrogance get to your heads simply because you've been upgraded to demon lords from arc demons!

Toruneoto bellowed.

To his words, Diablo felt something was amiss.

Does the opposing boss Velda, not know that they have reached the Devil Lord class?

This would be a joke, if that was the case. If it was their master Rimuru, he would have identified them in one glance.

Unless....

(Information has not been shared amongst them, that seems to be the case.

Because of his absolute confidence in himself, he was lax in doing a matter as trivial as sharing information.

The ego of the strong, huh.

On that point, Rimuru-sama has his bases covered. As expected. Kufufufufufufu)

Diablo was thoroughly ecstatic, as he thought of their master, who meticulously worked to set up a network to disseminate and share information, no matter the kind of information.

As his mood has greatly improved, Diablo's eyes turned "gentle", towards the fools before him.

ŒHey, Diablo. Why you're so happy? Didn't we just get dissed by the other side....?(Ultima)

ŒKufufufufu. It's because of such matters, that you still have a ways to go.

Even from the words of those foolish beings, we can pick out points that show us how great our master is.

ŒEh?

ŒUfufufufu. That's right, as expected, you seem to have noticed too, Diablo.

ŒOf course, Testarossa. I shall leave those beings in your merciful hands.

If I were to do it, I'd cause them to suffer.... You'd be able to purge them with no such pains.

ŒAra, are you sure about that?

ŒWa- wait a sec! I still don't really get what you two are talking about!?

Œ.... What this means, is that Diablo is saying he'll let us have his share.

Testarossa very kindly, began explaining to Ultima.

About how their master Great Demon Lord Rimuru, puts great faith into his subordinates.

After listening to the explanation, Ultima's eyes sparkled and exclaimed loudly,

ŒSo that's it!! So what you're saying, is that Rimuru-sama is way "higher class" than them!

Testa nodded satisfied.

Though she also noticed that Ultima's understanding is slightly off, it's not a problem as of now.

As she has reaffirmed the greatness of their master Great Demon Lord Rimuru, it is satisfactory for now.

ŒHold up!! What's this bullshit you bunch are spouting!

Haaan? You pathetic demons, do what to us highest class angels?

Purge us without suffering? Don't make me laugh!

Due to the insulting words from the demons, Aria screamed as she was totally pissed.

She unholstered her Great Axe, a weapon that didn't seem to fit her small build, and assumed a stance while gripping it.

With a burning anger lit in her eyes, while her hair was standing on end.

ŒIt's a taunt. Calm down, Aria.

The slim beauty Oruca, cut in on Aria while she glared at the demons with her cold eyes.

But, the Trident she was holding had aqua coloured waves swirling about intensely from within.

Though her thoughts were calm, on the inside she was just as furious.

ŒUfufufufu. It seems that punishment for some naughty kids is needed from big sis here.

Priscilla declared with a smile.

Though it wasn't particularly planned, the one sided words from the demons have succeeded in angering the easygoing Priscilla too.

Seeing that his comrades have also been angered, Toruneoto made his move and took a step forward.

Lightning raged across his body, showing his anger for him.

ŒWell wait up a little. I just had the best idea. You want to hear it don't you?

Before the angered angels, was Carrera who spoke out without a care for the mood.

ŒFrankly, I got no interest in you guys at all.

There's that fool named Vega who's rampaging about over at that side, I got some business with him.

So, I'm going pass on you guys as well.

Speaking as though this has already been accepted, was Carrera's suggestion.

To what Carrera has proposed,

ŒAra? Are you sure about that, Carrera?(Testa)

ŒEh!? Then, does that mean we each get two of em?(Ultima)

Were the jovial responses from Testa and Ul.

In contrast to that,

ŒDon't be underestimating us, lowly demon filth!!

ŒKill. Imma definitely kill you all!!

ŒFumu, looks like there's no other choice. I shall have to carve the painful truth into your bodies.

ŒThat just now, it got big sis all fired up.

The members of the Executioners, were all painted red in anger.

Even among the heavenly armies, they were considered the most powerful existences, as members of the "Apostles of the End", and part of the combat specialized Executioners.

To be looked down upon to this level, was unexpected for them.

Even in their previous life as members under Yuuki's direct command, they were already the most capable members then.

Though they were not part of the rank battles in the empire, they had the confidence to be able to go toe to toe against the Royal Knights.
