Harry Potter x Reincarnated as a slime

Part 30:so the third task is

Rimuru lays down on the bed staring at the ceiling as Ciel who lays next to him hums to herself interesting to rimuru it's a opening to a anime that she's huming a soft smile on rimuru's face as the two have been left alone while the others try and find out what the next task but rimuru really doesn't mind if they find out what it is to rimuru this is bliss that is until

Veldora:KWA HAHAHAHA

Rimuru:sigh.........damn it

Rimuru opens one of his eye's to look at veldora as Ciel has stopped humming and is now openly glaring at veldora who of course takes no notice of the glare of Ciel and the one eye look of rimuru

Veldora:my sworn brother I have found out what the next task is KWA HAHAHAHA

Veldora pumps out his chest and places his hands as fists at his hips laughing as he does so Rimuru now has both eyes open not believing that veldora was the first one to come back and with the news of what the next task is Rimuru and Ciel share a look before looking back at veldora

Rimuru:ok what is it then

Veldora:you will be tasked with burning down a maze

..

Rimuru:what

Veldora:I said guah!!!!

The door fly's open as it hits veldora and slams him into the wall as Chloe is standing there and runs up to rimuru shion, shuna and Diablo rushing into the room

Chloe:IT'S A MAZE

The three who just made it into the room fall to their knees in failure as rimuru looks at Chloe who looks proud

Rimuru:a maze huh veldora told me id have to burn down a maze

Chloe gains a sly look

Chloe:I may have noticed him listening in on my own investigation and said that loud enough for him to hear

Rimuru:and he fell for that *sigh* jeez veldora how did you fall for that

Veldora says something that is mumbled by the door that is currently holding him against the wall

Rimuru:mm well

Rimuru jumps up to his feet much to Ciels dismay as rimuru lifts his right hand and oats Chloe know the head

Rimuru:thanks for the help Chloe really

Chloe til it's her head down she knows she's supposed to be grown but this for her is bliss the others look irritated until rimuru til it's his body so that he can face all of them

Rimuru:and thank all of you to you all did great

Diablo, Shuna and shion gain looks of joy as veldora mumbles more as rimuru tries to keep himself from laughing

Rimuru:yes even you

Veldora from the sounds of it says yay as everyone enters the room and Diablo closes the door as veldora falls to the ground

Veldora:ow

Rimuru looks at veldora

Rimuru:that didn't actually hurt you did it

Veldora:no

Rimuru:... Mm wait... Chloe

Chloe perks up hearing rimuru say her name

Rimuru:you said it was a maze right

Chloe:that's right

Rimuru:huh wonder if I'll have to answer a riddle or if there will be a Minotaur... Huh if it's a maze the goal is at the end but

Ciel:but there are likely traps

Rimuru:yeah wonder what they will end up being.... The maze wouldn't attack me right actually that sounds kinda cool whatever I'll think more in it later Ciel let's go

Ciel:hai

Chloe:wait go

Rimuru:oh yeah we're going to go get lunch it's about that time wanna come with

Ciel:perhaps we should go once they are asleep

Rimuru:why didn't we go last night

Flashback

Rimuru:alright let's do this

Chloe hugs rimuru tighter

Rimuru:guah!!! I CAN'T GET FREE

Chloe rolls over and tightens her hold in rimuru who is trying to get free before after 30 minutes he just gives up

Rimuru:tomorrow then

Flashback end

Rimuru:oh yeah

Rimuru looks at Chloe right in the eyes as seconds tick by and Chloe behind to blush

Chloe:wh.... What is it

Rimuru turns around not saying anything as Chloe looks shocked at this wondering what she did

Rimuru:let's just go
