That time I got reincarnated as a slime,no, a DRAGON?

CH-146 Epilogue

"Hahaha...." Rimuru's laughter was the last thing that was spoken, before his soul shattered and went somewhere far off.

Ciel just continued to stare at the sky where the last particles of Rimuru's soul flew off.

"Fath....er?" Milim asked. She had just arrived.

"Ah. Mil-" Milim tackled Veldanava without waiting a second.

Everyone was surprised. Milim was too young at the time, so everyone believed that she wouldn't recognise him. Yet Milim had not only recognised him, but also accepted him.

"Mi- Milim. It's fine. I won't go anywhere. So let me go."

"No. Don't wanna. Don't wanna." Milim cried.

To this Veldanava could only give up and stop resisting.

Ciel's POV

I look at child and father duo. I guess it's true. When you lose something, someone else finds something important of theirs.

I suppress my tears and turn around.

"Let's go." I say to Benimaru and others. They simply nod and follow me. I am sure they have many questions to ask, but even they understand, now is not the time.

We silently leave the area and return back to Tempest. Upon reaching there, I hold a emergency meeting of the top executives. I explain the entire situation, as how I am Rimuru's wife, well fiance for now, since we didn't have a proper marriage ceremony. Shuna and Shion were visibly shaken. I know that they have feelings for him, but they will just have to give up. I will not tolerate anything if it comes to him, after all.

I also explain how Rimuru is dead, and he would take nearly 500 years to resurrect.

There was a dead silence and the atmosphere was heavy. They didn't believe me at first, but with Zegion, Benimaru and the demons supporting me, they accepted the truth.

50 years later....

A lot has happened since Rimuru's death. Shizue and the children were devastated hearing about rimuru's death. But, I told them how he would revive after 5 centuries. This made them even more motivated to become heroes and expand their lifespans.

Right after Ivarage's death was made public, the entire world started celebrating. Except Tempest, that is. I never restricted them from celebrating, but the monsters didn't. When I asked Shuna and the others, they replied, "The world might have won against Ivarage, but we didn't. After all, Rimuru-sama had to sacrifice himself. How can we celebrate his death like that?"

It seems like he really is loved. Maybe I am a bit happy. The people in this world don't treat him like a monster beyond control like in our previous world.

Some humans decided to celebrate, but faced with the cold stares from monsters, even they stopped.

As the world slowly started to settle, since major changes took place in the power of the demon lords.

With only 6 of the 8 demon lords alive, there was supposed to be a major change in power balance. But, Veldanava intervened. After nearly two days of discussion, Dagruel's seat was decided to be kept empty. I was given Rimuru's seat, as a proxy demon lord. Dagruel's seat was empty as Veldanava guarenteed he would revive in a few centuries.

When we asked Veldanava how he died, and what the true history of this world is, before anyone in this room was born, he just feigned ignorance. After a lot of pressure and help from Lucia, we finally managed to get him to promise to tell us after Rimuru and Dagruel revived.

Now that I think about it, it seems that it feels much more natural to call him Rimuru, than Satoru. I wonder if this is because his soul has been named?

Also, thinking about Lucia, Lucia and Veldanava had a lot going on. Milim was acting spoiled, more than usual. Lucas l Lucia was angry with Veldanava and wouldn't talk to him for nearly an year, before Veldanava managed to calm her down.

In the past fifty years, I haven't left the castle much too often. Part of the reason is the paperwork. Obviously, I could do it instantly, but I decided not to. After all, I have nothing else to do. Since Rimuru isn't here, I don't want to go sightseeing alone. I guess I'll wait till he revives.

If only 50 years can bring so much change, I wonder how much change 500 years will, when most humans would have forgotten this catastrophic event.

Or you can just check my account and go to the other book and add it to your library.

Also, I am thinking about writing another book. It would be like Overlord, but he wouldn't be transported alone into the game. His friends would as well. Tell me whether you want me to write it or not. Well, I'll write it anyways, if I feel like it.
