Claiming they would be introduced to the ruler of this dungeon, Gadra Roshi, alongside Shinji and co are currently following the slime before them.
TN Note: è師/Roshi means teacher/instructor, but it's a tier above å ç/sensei.

From the looks of it, this dungeon would be their workplace from now on.

Since you've been accepted into this country, we can't simply serve you free meals! Or so Shinji and co were told.

It's body jiggled with a *Pyon pyon without making a sound as it slid along the floor, giving it an elegant air.

Maybe it's just their imagination, however compared to the other slimes that are not only the weakest of monsters that get eliminated without much of a thought, this one had a different air around it.
ä½®¹©¤ å½¼ç®äº¡å½åå ¥®å½®ç§éçª «ª®§
After all this slime, was the king of the country that accepted them after their exile, the Demon Lord Rimuru.

Looking at it, one would feel they might be able to one-shot it with a surprise attack, but they shouldn't get careless.

After all, the Demon servant next to The Demon Lord, he had a strange presence emanating from him.

That demon introduced himself as Diablo.

Shinji and co didn't understand why, but when Gadra Roshi first saw Diablo his eyes widened,

"This level......it couldn't be, even the Demon Dukes (Demon lord) joined in as her subordinates too......"
TN Note: unless otherwise stated, from now on I'm going to use her for Rimuru too, long live the idol of Tempest!

He was speechless.

It's probably a very powerful monster.

The details were told later, but apparently it was an existence that could even subdue arc demons, and bring forth pandemonium.

During the "Crimson-dyed lake" incident, the platoon Shinji and co. belonged to were nearly annihilated by a lone Arc Demon, pondering about the meaning of those words paled his face.

In any case, they've got to take extreme care and made sure they never anger Demon Lord Rimuru, they nodded to each other in agreement.

And so, guided by Diablo, they had a walk in the dungeon.

They were brought into a room, and someone was there.

"Yahho~! I am Ramiris! Are you guys the new assistants?"
TN Note: "Yahho" as in how energetic anime girls would sometimes greet, not me mistyping "Yahoo"

The one flying around before them is a little fairy.

However, after that the fairy seems to have gotten carried away from our reaction.

"Fufun! You guys seem promising. Alright, you get a pass.

Said the hoity-toity fairy (pipsqueak) whilst puffing out her non-existent ******.

It seems Shinji has interpreted this as a child who wants to play.

This dungeon truly is Makyo, he thought.

After all, there is the Immortal King Adalman and his knightHoly knight Albertoand other strong individuals dwelling here, and then there are child like fairies playing around innocently.

He wasn't certain about doing as this child had told him to, above all they would soon be owing a favor to the ruler of the dungeon.

Mark seemed pretty happy; unfortunately we can't possibly play with her.

(The ruler of the dungeon is probably someone like the Immortal King Adalman.
After all, it's an old friend of Gadra Roshi, so there's no mistake.)
·³¸¯è...®
So Shinji thought.
©ª¹¨å嫯èè...æ°'® ......
However, he had the feeling that the name Ramiris sounded familiar......

Oh well, Shinji thought and was about to decline the offer.

Unfortunately, we're here to meet the ruler of the dungeon, and work under them.

When Shinji was about to continue, suddenly Gadra Roshi knocked him on the head and stopped his words.
ä½ä½ 夬·³¸
Shinji didn't understand what he did wrong.
ª·³¸«æ§äºª
Ignoring shinji,
¯¯©ª¹æ§ï¼ç§¯¬©¨ç³¾'

"My my, why isn't this Rimiris sama! My name is Gadra.
It's truly an honor to meet you!"

"Ha ha ha, of course. This weak fellow here has underwent training, so there's no problem!"
ªä¼è©±ç¶©ª¹¨¬©
And so Ramiris and Gadra continued their conversation.
§©ª¹éç®åå ¨æåº'·³¸
And finally, Shinji remembered that Ramiris was the name of a Demon Lord.
¼¯¨·³·³¸¨¬©®é£åè......æåº...§ç´ç«ä¸å«ª£...
Mark and Xing, they too remembered after looking at Gadra and Shinji's exchange, and stood up straight ridigly.

Towards the three who were nervously chattering,

"Ah, did you guys knew without having me introducing?
This is Ramiris. She is your superior.
If you looked down on her just because she's small, you're going to get punished by the secretary so watch out."
訣...©ª¹®è徫æ°é 硤®é«ç¾äººç©æå·®'éçª «
Saying so, Rimuru pointed towards the person behind Ramiris who appeared without anyone realizing.
®äººç©¯'¬¿¨å姩ª¹®ç§æ¸å ¼è·è¡¨®äº £
That person's Beretta, Ramiris's secretary and bodyguard.

Looking at the Doll-like masked individual,

"What in the......"

Gadra said, and groaned.
©¬©å»ä½®çç±® ¨å¯'·³¸é
Apparently, Shinji and co. had realized the reason why Gadra had groaned.
¤¾¯®ä»®é¢®'¬¿åªè §¯ç¡®
That masked figure is probably no ordinary individual.
¾éç®æ£²å®¶«ç¸å¿"人å¤é墮§£
This place that was also a demon lord's dwelling, it truly is a Makyo where no humans lived.
·³¸é®æ"å®ä»äº¯é¨å±®ä¸§è¿·å®®«æ»å ¥è éç£è...'¨® £
The first job for Shinji and co, are to monitor those who had invaded the dungeon in a room, simply that.
æ»...楮¯ä»¾§ä»²é £å¸å½è»®å µå£«é§
And those attacking are their former comrades the soldiers of the empire's army.

They were mostly strangers, but there are a few acquaintances in the mix.
ä½'æ°å®è¯®§¯ªå½ä»¤ª®§ä»æ¹ªæ¤¤ç£è...ä½"æ¥ç¶
It didn't feel pleasant, but those are the orders. They thought, and continued their monitoring work.

On the first day, the empire's forces advanced smoothly.

However he had question. The structure looked totally different from when Shinji and co. first entered the dungeon.
çå«æè...¿¨
When he asked about it,
£åï¼ £...è¿·å®®¯100éæ§æ§ç°¡å«å ¥æ¿å¯è½ª ï¼
"Of course it is! After all, the dungeon's composed of 100 components, I can easily move them around!"
é穪¹¯ç¡éªæ°«è¿äºè¿...
Demon Lord Ramiris gave him an innocent reply.
®å...ç²¾åé¨å±§å¤§¹¯ª¼³«æ å æ'¯ä¸ç·«è......®
That fairy was also in the same room with him, watching the projection on the large screen alongside him.

There weren't any surprises; Ramiris was as friendly and openhearted as she looked.
ªè¯ç·å¼µç´«è§£...
Feeling great, the tension quickly dissipated.
éçª «æ° £æµç³«æ°è»½«è©±®¯èºèº® ©ª¹¯å話...®§·³¸éä¼è©±'£®
It seems like Demon Lord Rimuru was also quite the openhearted person, but Shinji and co. were hesitant about establishing conversation, on the other hand it was easy to talk to Ramiris since she's the one who initiates them.
®éçª «¯ç®¡å¶å®¤®æ¹«å± «¯å± ª®§
It seems that Demon Lord Rimuru is currently in the control room, and not staying here.
©ª¹®é£«¯è¬®ç¾å½¢®äººç©å±
However, Next to Ramiris was a mysterious handsome figure.
æ¤æ¹¯¤¾ª«èªæ¸...
He looked uninterested about our work and was reading a book.

Where did he get it, for it was a manga that Shinji had read too, but how should he join inOr rather should he even join in at allhe had a hard time deciding so in the end Shinji didn't call out to him.
嶪ææ°æ¡®§å¾§å¨æ£® 声æäºåºæ¥ª®§é ¼¿ª
If he could borrow it, he would probably be filled with a nostalgic feeling, but if he wanted to borrow it, he's going to have to greet him first.
