Rimuru's Journey For His Beloved(Arifureta From Common Place to World Strongest)

Reassured & Confronting The Empire's Soldiers

42, was the number of Rabbitmen traveling through the canyon

With such a big group traveling, all sorts of monsters tried attacking the group. Unfortunantly for the monsters, with Hajime and Rimuru defending the group, attacking them would be nothing less than a death sentence

Flashes accompanied by gunshots along with silent swooshes could be heard and seen at night, in the morning when you looked around, corpses of monsters and such could be seen scattered and just lying on the ground

The reaction of the Rabbitmen were as expected, they were all dumbfounded as they stare in awe at both Rimuru and Hajime with sparkling eyes

"Fufufu Hey look Hajime, that little one is watching you, you should wave at her" Shea said

Shea, who for some reason started teasing Hajime, who right now is in a bad mood due to being constantly reminded of how far his difference in power was compared to Rimuru, started having veins popped and appear on Hajime's head

Silently Hajime pulled out donner then

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"Awawwawawawawagh!?" (Shea)

With rubber bullets aimed at her foot, Hajime kept on shooting while Shea tried dodging it which made her look like she was tap dancing

"Hahahaha, that's why you shouldn't tease Hajime haha"

Seeing this spectacle Rimuru couldn't help but say such things while laughing

》Ciel, by the way how's the cardinal world?《

《It's fine master, the black number which numbers to 10,000 archdemons is protecting it, in total over the years, there have been 6 attemps in taking over the cardinal worls, the attackers were destroyed with no mercy by Diablo and the other primordials along with the other Black numbers》

》I see, thanks for the report Ciel《

《No problem master》

(Trully taking a break and just enjoying things like this is the best hahaha) Rimuru thought

At the same time, Kam, Shea's father looked at this with a wry smile while Yue looked in amazement

"Uh-huh, so Shea and Hajime-dono has that kind of relationship...."

Even though her daughter was being shot at, he viewed it as if celebrating his daughter's departure (as in marriage) with tear forming in the corner of his eyes. Amuzingly so, the other tribe member's looked at it the same way

"....Unbelievable" Yue mutter

"Hahhaha, this just make's it so much funnier" Rimuru said

After that amuzing spectacle, they began moving again. After walking for a long long time, they finnaly arrived at the entrance of Raisen Grand Canyon

Infront of them were finely built staircase as far as Hajime's "Far Sight" can see. The stairs was built by cutting along the wall and it was the type that make an u-turn every 50 meters

The Sea of Trees was just half a day away from the exit of the Raisen Grand Canyon

While Rimuru watched Hajime as he tries to look at the distance, Shea started talking with uneasiness in her voice

"C-Could there be any more of those e-empire soldiers?"

Shea said stuttering for some reason

"Hmmm, im not sure. There's a possibility that they've all been annihilated by the monster here, though that of course is just a possibility"
