The Great one's Future

A new Beginning

Duke's POV

My Wife and daughters were now at a safe place , the so called Black Castle and the residence if Rimuru Tempest. Even if the World would collapse there were safe

Well when you can trust the Ancient books I had read back then .. he is the Ruler over space and Time.

But that's not important now .. I need to make sure that this Empore survives and for that I need to kill my Brother .. Anyways he is a monster .. I knew that fact for years.

"So what do we do about that Hero Cerberus-sama" I asked her and shejust smiled "The hero ? What kind ofherowoild watch that others were killed or treated as söaves by the King"

She made a short pause "And on top of that ot was a Hero Family" she really sounded mad and I decided to stop asking just to make sure that my Head will still sit on my Shoulders.

Then she called two demons , Seems like they are Arch Demons ...

"You two willcome with us"

"Yes Cerberus-sama!" They said and then suddenly I was standing in front of the Castle.
A few guards saw us and pointed there weapons at us

"Who are you ?"

"These are Demons kill them" 

Wellthey ignored me but I guess it's just normal when you see Demons in front of you.

"Kill them ,I don't want to let Rimuru-sama wait any longer" Cerberus said and those archdemons sinply killed all of the Guards.

'At least it was a fast death' I thought looking at them

"Tsk Weak Humans .. It's like they would begging for their death" Cerberus said

"Well we humans can't notice your aura .. I think you are hiding it even without it not anyone can feel it" I explained and she smiled

"Do you want to kill him yourself?" She asked and I was confused why she asked this now .. it's a complete other topic.

"I don't need to do that , don't you want to do it yourselfto earn his praise?" I asked her and she laughed

"Seem's like you are a sharp one , Human" She said "My name is Erik , Erik Rosmania" I said and she ignored me .

"Anyways .. we are going to find the King Princess and Queen" She said

'Wait the Princess is only 14 Years old and has nothing to with this' I thought and looked at Cerberus "Can we let the Princess live ? After all she had done nothing" I asked.

"Let her alive hm? What do you think will a daughter feel if their Parents were killed .. it would only be a meaningless revenge that she wants" Cerberus explained and I thought about the possibility ... 

"But I don't have the Qualification to rule a Kingdome .. but I know that she is clever enough to do so .. please let her live and when she turns 18 I will crown her to the Empress/Queen. So I need only to balance the kindome for four years" I said 

Cerberus POV

This Erik .. I don't like Humans and they even dare to do something like that. But somehow this Man is a bit different and I think he is loyal to us .. well who could go against my Rimuru-sama. 

"Good I will ask Rimuru-sama but that was the last thing I will do for you , understood?" I released a bit of my Aura to keep him at his rank. 

"Y-Yes of c-course Cerberus-sama"

I then walked with him trough the palace , we didn't even need to fight .. that Weak Humans just die from my Aura feeling on of the most painful deaths. Of course had my King prepared a Barriere for Erik as she left back to the Black Castle with the only words 

"To lose a future friend would be nothing more then loose time that I had to sacrifices for coming to this place" 

Of course I immediately knew her true words that she said with that sentence "Don'tt let him die or you just killed my time" and that would mean a harsh punishment. 

'My King , Eric asked us to let the Princess alive and let her rule the Kindome after she turned 18' I said with the help of Thought Communication

'With Erik you mean that Duke right? Mhh I want to talk to that Princess bring her here after you killed the King and Queen' Rimuru answered 

I smiled "Then let us show the King our Present" I said as we opened the Door to the Throne room. The Duke followed me and my two Arch Demon subordinates too. 

They were suprised seeing us , I wondered why can't they feel the Aura I was emmiting outside of the room ? Anyways the King immediately shouted "Kill those Demons" and of course a so called Hero in white Armor rushed at us.

"Die!! Lowly Demons!" he shouted and I yawned ... really what is he thinking of whinning while beeing so slow.  I just evaded his sword slash and grabbed his neck. Looking in his Eyes I said "Know what true Fear means" I smiled wicked as I tortured his very Soul to the point his mind was broken.

"Please .. P-Please just kill me!" he said while laying on the ground , the others in the room were suprised and the King shouted "What are you doing! Kill them you are a Hero!"

'Argh .. I hope i don't get evolved with that Humans ever again .. there are so dumb' I sighed and looked at them I was suprised seeing the Princess calmly sitting next to her mother. 

'Seems like she accepted her death hm ? So easily ? Did she really give up .. no wait .. is this really the case ? Did she give up or does she just overcome her fear of Death !! Knowing what they did and repent on her actions?' I thought and smiled Interested 

"So you really think that this .. eh thing" I killed the man "was an hero?" I laughed at their faces "You .... you are so dumb ! Hahaha Doing such things to the Family of the Strongest Hero from this World Kuhahahah" 

But then suddenly I got serious and declared with an smile on my face "With your actions against the Aubert Family you have signed your Death" After I said that two swords out of Nuclear Magic pierced their bodys. 

They screamed at the pain they are feeling of course I am letting them consuious to feel the completly pain they ae going through after that I showed them the Heads of all the Nobles that got killed at this Attack. 

'Seems like that broke him huh? Seeing his filthy friends all dead' I thought statisfied .. of course one thing still need to be done and that was Soul punishing .. a Skill my King gave me it's an torturing Skill that also makes sure the Beeing won't be able to be Revived or Reincarnated even when the Soul didn't bursted. 

That means as long their soul is somewhere in the universe the only thing they will feel is pain. That's the judgment my King bestowed upon this lowly humans .. Endless Pain. 

But before I activated the Skill the King looked at his brother "So you were the traitor ! You bastard" 

"You are wrong .. the one who betrayed our Kingdom is non other then both of you. I don't know where it began and why you became such a monster... long enough I looked away because you are my Brother but it's time to say you one thing .. you are not from my blood .. never will I accept it. I need to made a Decision and that was to save my Family .. my Wife and Daughters.  Never would I save you." 

The Duke spoke and the Princess looked suprised really just what his her deal ? She even has Black hair and not blond hair.

"Anyways your life is now over" I said as I behadded them with the Golden Sword my King gave me .. and the using Soul punishing on the leaving Souls. 

"Spike those Heads on something and show them to your Kingdom.. that's what you humans always do to traitors don't you ?" I said and then looked to the Princess. 

"Why am I still alife ? I thought this would be my last Day on this World" The Princess said I couldn't other then laugh "You really are a Careless little Girl" I said and then took her on her arm and teleported away leaving Erik a simply message. 

"You know what to do , right?" 

(Just who could be this black haired little girl be ? Anyways this Chapter is a bit shorter and does not have that much story you could say it's a classic filler, but don't worrie the next one will be longer again, Have a nice day)
