That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Light Novel, Chapter 56
Chapter 56
Ingrasia Kingdom
The journey to Ingrasia Kingdom proceeded without incident .
I summoned Ranga, and had him assume a smaller form . He also has fur armor equipped, so there shouldn’t be any problems if humans see him .
That is, he currently looks like a slightly bigger black wolf .
Though the road we traveled by was unpaved, it was still considered a highway, so we did see some mounted soldiers .
Few monsters spawn around here, and there’s little magic in the air .
We didn’t see any powerful monsters . However, the roads were infested, in some sense .
Robbers and highwaymen, those petty types were all over them .
But we didn’t even run into them .
Well, I guess that’s to be expected . What kind of being could catch up with Ranga’s pace?
And it’s not like we’re running at neck-break pace; we’re proceeding leisurely, but still at least 60 km per hour .
Far faster than any horse carriage .
Thus, the journey proceeded smoothly, and we arrived to Ingrasia Royal City in merely two days .
The scale of the city was surprising .
Sure, it’s plenty wide, but there’s also a large wall surrounding the city .
Two gates lead into it, and there’s no way in except for the two gates . It’s baffling to think just how much money and time was needed to construct this .
We entered the city and marveled at the sight .
Many tall structures filled the city, but that much we expected; however, the scale of the buildings was incomparable those in Brumund .
Most were at least five stories high .
The city was full of brick and wood buildings .
But more than anything, it was the strict city planning and the white castle in the middle of the city that made me wonder .
A large lake occupied the center of the city, and a castle was built in the middle of it .
Four bridges extend from the castle and connect to the city’s main roads .
This solemn piece of architecture properly conveyed the country’s military strength .
In short, all I thought was: amazing!
From the perspective of defense, every important junction has knights monitoring public order .
You’d have to be pretty desperate to even attempt a criminal act .
As expected of a city planned ahead of time by the Council .
I mean, just think of the consequences if some foreign prince ran into trouble here . To prevent such occurrences, the city has perfected its defense .
Thanks to the guild card I was able to quickly pass through one of the gates; normally, one has to undergo three different identity checks to be permitted access .
At the first step, they check your identification documents . If you successfully pass this check, you have to go through a thorough body search .
Then, line up in another line .
Each point is heavily protected, and the lines are far longer than the one in the Dwarf Kingdom .
In other words, I’m truly happy that I had the guild ID .
By the way, even if there are any problems during your second check, you could go on to the third, but you’d be treated as a criminal from then on .
You’d basically be treated in a way that will discourage you from trying to enter .
But still, there are many people trying to gain entrance . And so, extremely long lines stretch in front of the inspectors .
This all proves just how beguiling this city is to foreigners .
I proceed onward impressed .
As for Ranga, he’s entered my shadow from the moment we reached the royal capital .
What? You thought I would just bring him here in the open?
Of course not . Wolves don’t belong in cities . Even I have that much common sense . Don’t worry .
And so, after having hidden Ranga in my shadow and spent half a day in line, we finally entered the city .
What’s amazing is more than its appearance .
I was able to see a wonderful display of their advanced culture .
I saw many large gymnasium styled buildings that are used for concerts .
Busy squares are home to performers and theaters . There’s also lots of advertisements for performances .
I don’t know if paper is just that cheap here, but you see flyers thrown away on the streets .
Truly a metropolis .
I was finally able to smell the air of busy capital after such a long time .
No way! I thought in surprise, looking at glass buildings .
Behind the glass you could see products being sold, like the store windows of our world .
Actually, I guess that’s exactly what they are .
The only difference would be that the main products on display are armors and weapons .
The stores that specialized in dresses and such were located closer to the castle—in the high class district .
But those are not stores intended for the masses .
You’d have to be pretty rich just to live inside the city walls, but housing near the castle is certainly limited only to the nobles .
And that’s a sign of wealth disparity .
Well, that’s just how it is . Isn’t it natural to treat those that contribute more to taxes better?
Thus, after wandering around the city for a bit, I started looking for an inn .
The city is separated into four large districts .
The merchant’s district, the sightseeing district, the production district, and the residential district .
Separated by the castle in the center, a circular city .
And easy to understand .
So, I proceeded to the sightseeing district .
As I thought, I quickly found a section dedicated to inns . There was also a bar in the back .
That got me excited . However, that was not my goal today .
Unfortunately, I abstained from festivities, and reserved a room in the inn .
The sightseeing district is near the walls, with various attractions lined up in the streets . There’s also quite a few street vendors .
Closer to the center is a large building intended for diplomats and conferences . There’s also a school inside, it seems .
Of the four sections of this district, it is the most heavily guarded .
And close to this section stands the Freedom Association’s main headquarters .
I didn’t know where it was at first, so I had asked a knight for directions .
「Which one do you have business in? The closest one is straight that way . 」
He said, pointing .
In that direction stood a large gaudy building .
Next to it, was a building affiliated with the Western Saint’s Church . A Saint Cross symbol stood proudly on the top .
「Next to that church?」
「Right, the gaudy one . Even a little girl like you wouldn’t get lost getting to it . 」
That’s how I learned the way . The Freedom Association seems to have another building, but I’ll head to the nearest one first .
It’s a pretty large building, that can be seen from far away .
Thus, after securing a place at the inn, I had come to the Freedom Association’s Headquarters .
Right now I have no business with the church . Actually, as an atheist, I’d prefer to stay away from the church my whole life .
Moreover, the church considers monsters its natural enemy . So I’d rather not appear before it .
But who would have expected it to stand so close to the Freedom Association .
Well, as long as I don’t reveal any of my aura they shouldn’t recognize me for who I am .
Not that there’s any use worrying about it . If they find out, we’ll figure out the next step then .
The entryway to the Association is covered in glass . Must have cost a lot .
Frankly, I hadn’t expected to see glass doors in this world . Just what you’d expect from “World Travelers” .
They seemed to have achieved the impossible through pure will . I guess my own efforts have been lacking thus far .
What you permit happens, and what you don’t permit doesn’t happen .
Rather than saying what you can or can’t do, simply doing it is important .
Let’s remember that .
And, when I had thought to enter, I felt a presence staring at me .
The doors opened by themselves .
Seriously! A sensor detects human presence and opens the door . What a useless example of intricate technology .
I’m surprised they went this far . Considering that the church next door is opened by hand .
“Why is it different . It’s next door!” I couldn’t fathom the reason for the difference .
When I entered I felt a gaze fall upon me .
A lady by the door said,
「Welcome! For what purpose have you visited us today?」
Just like in a hotel . The headquarters are too influenced by them .
「Ah, I wish to meet with the Grand Master . I have an introductory letter . 」
I said, and handed her the document .
「Allow me to verify it . Please wait in this room . 」
She guided me to a waiting room .
The Headquarters are really impressive . The moment I sat on the sofa another attendant brought me tea .
They really leave nothing to be desired .
I suddenly got curious, so I asked,
「Hey, security seems pretty lax around here; can just anyone waltz in like this?」
「Oh, this must be your first time to the headquarters .
Only adventurers of B rank and above can enter it .
The entrance scans your guild card, so people without a proper identification cannot enter .
Those below B rank, C+ and below have to use the building near the entrance to the city . 」
So she explained .
I see, so the sensor also had that purpose .
And the other building the knight had mentioned must be that one, huh .
So outsiders don’t know about the necessary rank requirements .
I probably would have been sent here after presenting the letter, but I’m glad I stopped by here first .
Ranking up to B was also the correct decision .
While I was thinking this, I heard a knock on the door .
A door opened and in stepped a man .
Black hair and black eyes, the appearance of a youth .
A rather good face, blessed with a truly youthful appearance .
He could easily introduce himself as a high school student .
「Pleased to meet you, I am Kagurazaka Yuuki,
The Grand Master of the Freedom Association .
I’m looking forward to our conversation, Rimuru-san . I’ll listen intently!」
He said, flashing bright smile .
An easy to befriend young lad . That’s how I met Kagurazaka Yuuki .
* * *
*Paaaaan!*
The door flew open, and Milim entered .
That was the norm, so Frey didn’t react much .
In the first place, the large mass of energy that was rapidly approaching her could only be Milim .
When Milim entered, she happily exclaimed with a wide smile,
「Yahoo, Frey! What wonderful weather we have today!」
She was combing her beautiful blond hair with her hand . Her hands adorned with an unfamiliar item .
Not a ring . Something enveloping four of her fingers, with dragon images as decorations .
It fit naturally around her small hands .
「Hmm… . did I come too early?」
She said, fanning her face .
Since when is she bothered with the heat…?
「Ara, Milim . It’s been a while . You seem in a good mood today .
Did something good happen?」
「Nnn, does it show on my face? Look at this!」
She said, showing the dragon knuckles on her hands .
Proudly laughing “Fufun!”
Frey could only sigh to herself .
「Ara, my! They suit you quite well . Where’d you get them?」
After deciding to praise her, Frey asked that question .
While fidgeting in embarrassment, Milim said,
「Want to know? Should I tell you… should I…
Hmm… what should I do…」
And similar pointless lines .
How annoying . Frey, who had known Milim for a while now, could only think that .
「Ara, aren’t “we” friends? You can tell me, can’t you?」
Upon hearing these words, Milim’s eyes opened wide .
「Right! We are friends!
Alright . I’ll tell you . The thing is…!」
And thus Frey heard from Milim about the monsters’ city .
Constantly bragging and showing off the clothing she got .
Frey could not hide her surprise at the sight of such a merry Milim .
Once Milim finished telling the story once,
「Right, right . Milim, as “friends”, I have a present I want to give you .
Will you accept it?」
Frey said, and beckoned her attendant .
The attendant brought it in . Lying on a purple cloth, a beautiful jewel .
And this beautiful jewel was embedded inside a stunning pendant .
Any person who saw it would recognize its astounding value .
「Hmm? This is the present?
Is it okay for me to accept it? Even if I do, I won’t be giving you the dragon knuckles!」
Milim said, with a wry smile .
「Don’t worry, Milim . It’s proof of our friendship . A “friend’s” gift, as I said .
Will you wear it for me?」
Frey said with a soft smile .
“I will!” Milim exclaimed with a brilliant smile .
〈Incantation: Preparing Demon Marionette… success . 〉
At that moment, Milim’s smiling face went rigid .
Something flashed in her eyes, but her consciousness was already gone .
The dragon knuckles slid right off her hands .
Seeing this reaction, Frey sighed in relief .
「It’s done, Clayman . Is this fine?」
She said to a dark, empty corner of the room .
From where you’d think no one could be a single man emerged .
Demon Lord Clayman . One called the Marionette Master .
「Kukuku . Well done, Frey . I have now acquired the strongest doll!
Kuuuuhahahahahaha!!!
You’ve looked down on me as a young demon lord, but to have fallen for such a petty trick… how pitiful, Milim!」
With a sinister smile, Clayman struck Milim across the face .
Her plump cheeks turned red and her lip split .
Milim, who was normally clothed in many defense barriers, did not have much defense right now .
A normal girl, no, even lower than a human; it’s natural for her to be hurt by a demon lord’s attack .
Kuahahahaha! While loudly laughing, Clayman continued his onslaught .
「Shouldn’t you stop now?」
「Hmph, it’s not a spell that would disappear with a little damage!
Considering her arrogant attitude, surely you’ve got a grudge or two against her?
Isn’t that why you agreed to this plan? No?
If so, then don’t hold back . She can’t resist anymore .
Well, she is pointlessly sturdy, and we can just keep healing her when she breaks!」
His eyes bloodshot, Clayman kicked Milim into the air .
Contrary to Clayman, Frey was calmly observing .
「Hey, Clayman . You don’t know, but Milim has an automatic defense mode, you see?
We call it “Rampage” where she uses abilities beyond her body’s limit .
So if you want to die, be my guest, but don’t involve me in your side . Got it?」
Clayman regained his composure upon hearing these words .
「Tch . What a joke of a demon lord . What’s with the oldest demon lord . Looking down on us .
Whatever . If I use her, I can improve my standing among the demon lords .
Frey, you’re my accomplice . So don’t go thinking you can betray me now!」
「Ara? Weren’t we supposed to be equals?」
「Fool! I’m the one who came up with the plan! You’ve already become one of my pieces .
You don’t want to die by Milim’s hands right now, do you?
Kuhahaha! Now that I obtained Milim, you can’t reject me any longer!」
Frey made an unpleasant face upon hearing his words .
You are the Sky Queen, the ruler of the skies, no? You wish for Milim to disappear and I can make it happen!
She agreed to the plan because of those words .
As she somehow learned that Milim is weak to the word “friend”,
「I understand . 」
「Good . Just don’t try to betray me .
What, you aren’t like Milim–I won’t order you around . Just ask a few favors here and there!」
While continuing his laughter, Clayman said .
Now, he has assembled three demon lords beneath him . A power that their council can no longer ignore .
At the very least, he’s far surpassed the other young demon lords .
Milim and Frey . By controlling these two, he could perhaps even force the others to follow .
Then, even the old generation would come to fear him .
He’ll rule them all!
After all, he’s the marionette master! He’ll lead them all under that name .
The next one on the list is Demon Lord Karion . After that, the next would be…
Clayman was busy planning .
Frey coldly observed this .
On the floor, Milim’s dragon knuckles emitted a faint light .
But there was no light in Milim’s eyes .
The dragon knuckles glowed in vain .

The journey to Ingrasia Kingdom proceeded without incident .
I summoned Ranga, and had him assume a smaller form . He also has fur armor equipped, so there shouldn’t be any problems if humans see him .

I don’t know if paper is just that cheap here, but you see flyers thrown away on the streets .
Truly a metropolis .
I was finally able to smell the air of busy capital after such a long time .
No way! I thought in surprise, looking at glass buildings .
Behind the glass you could see products being sold, like the store windows of our world .
Actually, I guess that’s exactly what they are .
The only difference would be that the main products on display are armors and weapons .
The stores that specialized in dresses and such were located closer to the castle—in the high class district .
