9 AM had come, and I brought myself and Milim back with Ranboo's Teleportation.
He can only teleport a mile at a time, but the cooldown is insanely low. Also, it doesn't rely on magicules, since it's become part of Reality Survivor Formulae.
It was weird. My skill made it so this reality was now two at the same time, one operating normally and the other operating under Minecraft's system. My body had been completely converted to the new system, but my skills still used the old one.
As I thought about that, I got a chilling thought. I had tested with Karl's powers the ability to stop time. It stopped it in both dimensions, well, in the dimension. I'd need a time stopper on the original one to test out more of this since I might be vulnerable to getting time stopped and vice-versa, but it would suffice for now.
In any case, through Ranboo's powers, I managed to get myself and Milim back to town in about 10 seconds. Needless to say, she was impressed. It wasn't flashy, but it was certainly intriguing, and her inner child curiosity was booming.
As I arrived, Rimuru came over to scold us. I could see his position, but still, chill out. Milim ain't gonna be killed, and she ain't killing anyone with me around.
The day was pretty uneventful, partially because the Demon Lord decided to go hunting with the Kaval trio because of her Milim Eye. And by that, I mean up until a burst of energy formed in the middle of the town.
This turned out to be a Dryad. I had never met one before, but the others had. Memories from when I took information out of every member of the village proved that theory.
Though, I don't recall their memories feeding me a dryad like this. This was likely not Treyni. Then, she started to speak.
"I am the Dryad Trya, younger sister of Treyni."
"So, what's with that form and murderous aura?"
I was about to ask that question. If I didn't know better, I would've gone for the kill already to protect the town.
"An emergency. Calamity is upon us."
"Hm?"
"A Calamity-class Monster, Charybdis, has been revived. Worst of all, he's headed towards your land. Me and my sisters have attempted to slow it down, but we are no match for it. As the Ruler of the Skies, waging war on land against it is useless. I've come to recommend you to strengthen your defenses and prepare an airborne combat force."
Great. As if we didn't have a catastrophe-class entity in this town.
What's that? I'm a catastrophe-class entity too? No way. You've got the wrong guy here.
Anyway, we headed for the town hall after the briefing. There, Trya gave us a briefing of Charybdis's power and history.
I learned it was born from a cloud of Veldora the Storm Dragon's magicules. I decide to speak up.
"Sorry to interrupt, but there seems more to this than meets the eye. If Charybdis really is mindless, then it shouldn't be headed straight for town. Maybe it could be because this was Veldora's home, but the Storm Dragon's disappeared. Is there a way for it to be sentient?"
Rimuru flinched at what I said. Huh.
"W-well, Charybdis needs a physical body as a host to revive itself, and there's about 10% of a chance that the person holding the body's conscience will stay alive, but now that you mention it..."
"But who would antagonize us?"
Rimuru suddenly speaks up.
"Maybe Phobio?"
