But what did Slime do wrong?

Chapter 199 Mirror

If we want to talk about the anomalies with the mainstream world... Rimuru thinks, indeed, there are too many anomalies in this world.

But he just regarded those as the unique characteristics of this world before.

Whether it's those literary giants who don't write books at all, or Ibaraki Doji who has appeared in Hua Piao's memory with different deeds... All of these have obviously deviated from the proper track of the world's development.

Therefore, this world has become a singularity. Although it sounds strange and unbelievable at first, if you think about it carefully, it seems that there is no trace.

So Limuru believed Merlin's words very easily: "In this case, Ms. Fujimaru should be the one to deal with this singularity, right? Merlin will come to contact me specially, is there anything I can help you with? "

Merlin paused for a moment, and said in a subtle tone, "Miss?"

"Although I don't know why you have such a perception, Rimuru...but Tachika is a boy, not a cute girl."

"ah."

Speaking of this, Merlin seemed to have thought of something interesting, and his voice was filled with a joyful smile that could not be concealed or hidden.

"Or, Limuru, have you ever seen Tachika as a girl?"

Rimuru: "Huh?"

After a long silence, there came Limulu's shocking exclamation: "Hey?"

"But at the beginning, it was clearly you who showed me the things about Lixiang?"

Rimuru looked at Merlin suspiciously.

He felt an extremely subtle feeling... Well, to put it more bluntly, Limulu vaguely felt that he might have been tricked by Merlin.

So when looking at the other party, something inevitably came out of his eyes.

Merlin was originally a half-succubus who lived on human emotions as food. He was overly sensitive to changes in the emotions of other creatures, so he could naturally perceive that this point of Limuru was actually not so clear. Minor mood swings.

Merlin: Oops, it seems to be off.

After all, he came to contact Limuru not to be hostile to the other party, or to arouse Limuru's vigilance - he came to ask for cooperation!

Compared with Chaldea and his party who just came to this world and don't know much about the situation here, Merlin who has "present vision" can clearly and comprehensively get all the information and clues about this world.

So... Of course he can also be known, this world is so unusual, the basis of its existence is not only the root, but also the cornerstones and books that are comparable to the root.

In such a world, the existence of various power systems emerges endlessly. Even if Li Xiang can summon heroic spirits after Li Xiang, in such a world, it cannot be said that he has the advantage of having peace of mind.

The world is magnificent and magical...and wonderful.Merlin was even a little suspicious. It must be a demon god who escaped from the Temple of Time and came to this world with the Holy Grail to distort and produce such a singularity.

The smile on Banmengmo's face remained unchanged, but the thumb and forefinger were gently rubbing against each other, and did not let go for a long time.

Even if it is him... Rather, it is because of him that he can clearly realize that in this world, relying only on Chaldea, or even relying only on what they are familiar with and commonly used, The power system derived from the root does not have much chance of winning.

They need help from other lines of power.

With such a purpose, in Merlin's perception, Limuru, who actually bears his own mark, is undoubtedly very conspicuous.

But right now, the partner he wants to win seems to have some small misunderstandings about him...

Merlin took a deep breath, trying to make his tone more sincere: "Ah, I can explain this!"

"—what you see is me, but it's not me either."

"In countless parallel time and space, in the difficult and long journey of so many people named [Fujimaru Tachika] in order to save the world—"

"I'm not surprised that Tatsuka, a girl, will appear."

When he said this, Fujimaru Tachika and Ma Xiuju who were standing beside Merlin showed extremely horrified expressions, and a certain party himself even screamed strangely: "What are you talking about? Merlin!"

"Shh."

Merlin put up an index finger, put it against his lips, and shook his head at Fujimaru Tateka and Mash, signaling them to keep silent.

"..."

Although he still had many doubts about this matter, Fujimaru Tateka still instinctively chose to believe in Merlin, a big pig's trotter. For the time being, he closed his mouth according to the other party's instructions and created a background environment where he could talk quietly. .

So Merlin continued to talk to Limulu: "This kind of communication may not be able to explain a lot of things; why don't we talk face to face?"

"I will naturally tell you more... the details you want, and even the whole picture of the incident."

Rimuru pursed her lips.

Merlin mistakenly thought that such weight was not enough, and he was well versed in the principles of negotiation, knowing that even if it was a cooperation, it must give a little sweetness at the very beginning.

As a result, the voice of the half-succubus became softer and softer: "It's empty talk, why don't I pay a [deposit] now?"

"—This singularity was divided into two halves from the middle by a mirror."

True and false, false and true, you don't know whether what you see is real or illusory, you don't know which ones can be believed, and which ones are just lies from the world.

Limulu's brows and eyes moved slightly. If he had some filters in his mind when he first met Merlin because he was the most famous magician in the legend of King Arthur, then now Limuru understood that this half-succubus named Merlin might be a complete bastard.

"How can I believe that you are not fooling me again this time..."

Merlin: "Oh, is my reputation that bad?"

This question didn't even require any reaction or answer from others, and Fujimaru Tachika and Mash who were standing beside him had already started to glare.

Do you have the face to say such a thing!How many catties and taels of my own reputation do I have no points in my heart!

"Ah, what a greedy transaction partner."

Merlin let out a long breath. Although he said so, he was not very angry.

"Then, just pay a little more deposit."

The half-dream demon cleared his throat: "About the mirror that runs through this world and divides the world into two, it's at—"

****

The covenant with the monster does not need to take too long time and effort.

Because monsters are different from human beings, although they are not stupid and sweet, but most of the time, they still follow the ancient tradition of the weak and the strong in the blood, which makes many things easier and more convenient stand up.

What's more, there was Osamu Dazai, and the whole process was easily held by him in the palm of his hand, and there was no possibility of unexpected surprises.

After leaving the mansion of the Nuragumi, Rimuru did not return to Yokohama immediately.

"Where are you going, Rimuru?"

Osamu Dazai feels that his king is simply a person who does not go home.

"Hmm... Merlin told me where the mirror is, I want to go and see it."

Limuru replied.

If it is confirmed that the information Merlin told is correct, then it is imperative to form an alliance with Chaldea.

After all, no one can be happy if they know that they are living in an illusory mirror image.

Limulu feels that she still wants to be "real".

****

The "mirror surface" pointed out by Merlin, which can be recognized and touched most, is on the sea.

The water light in the distance formed a line, and the sky was reflected in it. For a moment, my feet were soft and I couldn't tell the junction between the sea and the sky. It really looked like a huge mirror.

The wings behind Limulu flapped slightly, hovering over the sea.

He lowered his head, stared at the sea surface, thought for a while, then Pingping stretched his arms forward and spread his five fingers.

Almost instantly, huge magic power surged out of Limuru's body, hitting the sea below, and the dark black flames instantly covered all sea levels that were not visible to the naked eye.

The green sanctuary also exploded, and the power brought by the cornerstone spread far away.Something trembled in the dark, but it still couldn't appear after all.

Limuru let out a soft "hiss", guessing that it might be the king sword that he had already broken.

All of these forces were transformed into attacks, and fell on the sea below, immediately setting off terrifying stormy waves.The waves were rolling, and from a distance they looked like waves that were several floors high.

Or, to be more precise, it might as well be called a tsunami.

When the sea water was about to hit the shore, it was stopped by the sanctuary, and it never really hurt the shore, causing troubles to people on land.

Rimuru's pupils of different colors are shining brightly, and the appearance of the world is like a snowfield scorched by the sun, collapsing and melting layer by layer.

And under the melting ice and snow, there is a kind of semi-floating plane that is "stuck" in mid-air, which cannot be found at all if it is not deliberately looking for it.

"Ah, that's what Merlin said, isn't it?"

Limulu moved her fingers, and a smile appeared on her face.

"……found it."
