ReSlime : Finding A Way Back In Another World

ARC I.5 CHAPTER III

.Recap of previous chapter

Within the moment my finger met her chin , Elsa was shot back from the impact, with a tremendous shockwave following behind her , creating a loud noise of boom upon the moment she hit the loot house. The impact thrashing the entirety of the loot house into debris and ruins, thundering noises of the loot house filled the air with a deafening silence after it was done.

Reinhard and Emilia were staring at me in pure astonishment. Felt and Rom's jaws were wide open and their eyes dilated at my attack and the destruction of their home.

' He is no ordinary , I need to be wary of him' Puck thought as he glared at the sheer destruction and power that was in my simple flick.

' I don't know if I can defeat him at my strongest if he uses all his power..'

Rimuru's pov ( point of view)

My slimy senses tingled, causing me to turn my gaze towards the debris which ranged even further back from the loot house. The shockwave produced due to my strike was strong enough to leave a deep narrow horizontal crator across the earth, even the loothouse and the tree nearby were not spared from the blow.

A dim but faint heat was detected in my senses which I realised was emited from Elsa who was buried under the ruins , seems like her regeneration abilities was able to save her from certain death.

With time acceleration activated , calculating the changes , possibilities and consequences. From the beginning of this series of events , I was brought into the world by an unknown entity whom I have no idea. Then I met with a silver haired Half elf whose voice was akin to what I heard in the darkness of different world. Then I casually met with the possible strongest person in this new world, chasing a thief to retrieve a priceless item.

Then knowing she was also hired by someone else , who turned out to be a well known assassin in the kingdom.

I realised the pattern this whole series of events held. To put in simple words , It was like a chess game.

Felt was merely a pawn who was meant to be a bait to lead us towards the enemy. And Elsa was the knight in background who waits for the opportunity to seize her targets , she was an assassin and a knight for enemy. The word itself gave away the meaning , She was too working for someone else, Who held more power and authority. Possibly a bishop, who in turn , was working for a king or queen.

The bishops stays hidden in the shadow and moves in a diagonal and puppet pattern , and takes the enemy by surprise once it enters the range of bishop.

The rooks in the background are someone who stays in shadow but play a low role but an important if utilised right in this outer worldly chess

This means now the pawn is captured, first Knight pushed back. The second knight will soon make its appearance followed by the bishop. I need to plan everything coherently to calculate who is my enemy and who isn't.

But the question is.. who is that one pawn that have the potential to become a queen?...

( POV SWITCH ALERT)

Elsa's Pov ( point of view)

" I must admit.. I'm equally terrified and excited" I muttered weakly , beneath the debris, I kicked the big piece of wood pillar that laid ontop of me, with blood flowing down from my mouth. I tried to move my head up but quickly regretted the decision as It was following by a sharp burning pain in my chin and throat.

Gritting my teeth at the pain, with a thought of Meili and Mama. I motivated myself to push the remaining debris off myself. With a barely audible hiss , I applied blunt force to the ground to stand properly. I glanced down to those several wounds that were regenerating at a slower rate than before.
