Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken novel Chapter 277

“Oh, that is convoluted.”

Diablo nodded at Souei’s words.

He had already lost all interest in the group with the white robes.

To Diablo, the only thing that was important was the movements of Rimuru, his master.

It was because Souei understood this, that he brought it up.

After Laplace had left, Diablo had called for Moss.

And then he ordered for the smallest unit ‘Clone’ that was made from Moss to be relocated close to Rimuru without anyone noticing.

This mission was put into effect by Moss’s ‘Clone’ using ‘Shadow Movement’ through the ‘Sticky Steel String’ that connected Souei and Rimuru.

‘Spatial Travel’ allowed you to travel immediately, but they could not do anything like that since it would draw attention.

And just now, after flying through the shadow space at super high speed, Moss contacted him to announce that he had succeeded in landing on Maldoland island.

It would be best if Rimuru did not notice, but it didn’t really matter either way.

Just like Diablo, Rimuru’s power had also been weakened.

Actually, he had dropped it to be level with humans, so it had dropped at a much more severe rate compared to Diablo.

So perhaps he would not find out, but Diablo would not get his hopes up regarding this.

(Normally, it would be ideal to protect him from the shadows…but it’s not possible to hide things from Lord Rimuru.)

That’s what Diablo thought.

Moss had landed on the island and made contact with this William.

He gave the new ‘Sticky Steel Ring’ that Souei had entrusted to him to William, and they had communicated through ‘Thought Transmission.’

He had likely used this direct method of contact to avoid the possibility of it being intercepted.

In this aspect, Souei was very cautious. Diablo was so impressed that he left a lot of matters to him.

“So, what did Moss say?”

“Don’t get so excited. According to the collaborator–William, Laplace is doing well. The combat instructors were better than expected and were trying to resist.”

“Well, that’s obvious. The academy is sponsored by Lord Rimuru. They have no need for useless people there.”

“However…”

“However?”

Souei ignored Diablo’s words and talked about the report from William.

And he knew full well that Diablo would be furious upon hearing it.

“It seems that there were teachers who didn’t try to protect the students.”

Diablo became enraged in an instant.

“Kill them all. That’s what we should tell Moss.”

Diablo said with a smile.
