Tensura / The Void Watcher (Editing)

Chapter 6: Catching back the lackings

3rd POV:

"So,how's stuff going for you?"

Rimuru was curious about how his friends were doing now,the human ones presumably died long ago for most other than Yamato Takeru, his former knights of four, and Herta the Genius, whose status is complicated,but in his mind. But now, he couldn't be sure of them either., apart from again, Takeru.

"Well,the only one that is not gone is probably Feldway,and assigned him to supervise the dangerous parts of this reality. But he is fine." Veldanava said,while having food in his mouth.

"I thought Feldway was a stubborn guy." Guy agreed,and also took a sip of the tea.

A short moment of silence.

"And that's why he is funny and interesting!" Rimuru replied, after thanking the waiter as another dish was served up in the matter of minutes.

Guy, Rimuru,and Veldanava sat on a coastal lake restaurant's couch,chattering about some of their common old friends,all of them each having a taste in different types and kinds of food, but enjoying all of them nonetheless while the others sat on their side nearby.

It's almost like a 'Serious-section' and 'Lesser-serious-section'.

"You can't be serious. How often does he report to you?" Guy eyed the creator suspiciously, taking a sip of the wine in the glass.

"100 years each? I don't know."

"Velda,you are a terrible leader,a really damn bad one." Rimuru laughed but he was hit on the head by his friend,who grinned mischievously at his own doings.

"Shut up Rimuru."

"See? Even Rimuru thinks about you like that. I am not the only person anymore!" Guy said while putting on a proud smirk, giving the slime a fist bump for a common ground on something.

"Before you guys start a quarrel that won't end well, what are they doing?"

Rimuru sighed as he looked at the others, where Velzard was seen occasionally staring at Veldora, the latter often hiding from her gaze.t

"So,there is Veldora,Velzard, you Mr.God. And who's the remaining one?" The slime asked.

"What do you mean?" Guy asked while raising his eyebrows due to the confusion, not knowing his question because of how seemingly out of the blue it sounded.

Pretty fair.

"Well you see, Velda said he has 3 siblings,we have Velzard and Veldora there. Where and who is the last one?"

"Velgrynd? Scorch dragon?" Guy said as he laid back lazily on the couch with a small yawn.

"Velgrynd? Who?"

On the other hand, Rimuru had no idea about Velgrynd,for he had never seen or heard of her. Heck, when he died, Velgrynd wasn't even born yet, the only true dragons were Veldanava and Velzard!

"Don't take my credit, Guy." Veldanava replied, unimpressed. "I was just about to answer, its literally my familial business."

"What? What credit?" This time,it is Rimuru's turn to be confused.

"Never mind,just see me as talking gibberish at the gibberish generator. Velgrynd is the 2nd oldest sister below Velzard, Scorch dragon,that's what people referred her to."

The god said nonchalant, eating an apple pie with his hands as he said while munching.

"Also..." The slime cleared his throat in a small cough as he finally asked the question he had in his mind ever since a short while earlier.

"Wanna talk about how Veldora is seemingly really scared by his older sister?"

The moment he said it out loud, Velzard couldn;t help but perk up as she stopped with the food on her plate, while Veldora finally let out a sigh of mixed feelings, mostly relief.

"Oh..."

Guy looked away, and Velzard sighed before explaining, ignoring Velzard's presence.

"Well, let's say that...Veldora, as you know already, is a horrendous trouble maker which really ruined a lot of things like an immature child." Veldanava mumbled as he gave the Storm dragon a side-eye before turning to Velzard.

"And then this girl here's discipline method isn't really the best and most suiting either, if you want a general version summarised like this."

...good lord.

That was the only thing RImuru could make in his mind after taking that in as he turned to look at Velzard with a soft sigh, patting her back.

"Velzard?"

"U-uh, Rimuru-"

"No, no."

The slime easily and gently shushed her as he patted her back again.

"I'm not going to scold someone, especially you in such a time like this, but let's have a talk about this, okay? Come."

He stood up as he gestured Velzard to follow him into a nearby secluded private room, nodding to the waiters as the two entered and sat down.

"Just a small session, okay? No need to be tense."

He said, before slowly shutting the door behind them.
