Calmness before the Storm

Rimuru POV
I smiled as Hestia and Bell hugged each other 'Really these two it's so obviously that she is in love with him' I sighed and looked at the two new Familia Members.

'Ho so this is the smith Hepheastus has talked about and this girl' I looked at her

"I didn't knew we had an thief in our Familia" I said and she looked suprised , you are asking why I know that ? Simply Ciel said that she wanted to steal Bell's knife and he didn't even noticed.

"I .. I am sorry Captain!" she said while bowing and I could tell that she tells me the truth "Anyways why are you guys even here ? Didn't I said you should stop after the 10th floor Bell?"

"Ehm .. hehe well.." He scrached his head "It's because ..."

"It's our responsibility" A Girl said which looked like an samurai "We runned away from a horde of monsters and then they got involved with it"

I looked at all three of them they are bandaged and the Loki Familia is here too. ‚Testarossa what happened here ?' I started a thought communication between the both of us.

'That white haired boy seemed to saved those other two named Lily (Liliruca) and Welf but he had a lot of injures. Then the Loki Familia helped them so I thought I didn't need to inform you' Testarossa said

'I see continue your work please' I said and ended the thought communication

Then I again looked at the Japanese looking girl "And what's your name ?" I asked

"My name is Yamato Mikoto" She said

"I will look over the Pass Parading the Monsters on to my Familia and think of it as an accident but only because you came back" I said with an serious tone

Mikoto and her friends were scared by my serious face as if it would mean their Death.

"Let's talk in a better place" I said while looking at my Familia members and they all nodded. So we walked back to the village and walked into the only inn sitting on one table.

"I will Introduce myself again , My name is Rimuru Tempest the Captain of the Hestia Familia"

Lily POV
'I wonder why he is wearing a mask or she ? Well Bell said he has an wife so I think it's he .. but his body looks like one of a woman' I thought as we sat down on the table

Anyways he said I am a thief so he knows what I had done this day .. I need to proce myself even when I am level 1 at the moment Bell is Level 2 so the captain of this familia won't be that high level right?

Then he introduced hisself and I looked at him rhen I Introduced myself too and Welf did the same.

"So why did you join the Hestia Familia?" He asked us

"Bell saved me even when I was not worthy to be saved and he risked his life for it so I decided to help him from that moment on" I said honest and it seemed he accapted what I said

"Well for me .. maybe becausehe always bought the stuff I forged ?" Welf said

"I see but what's with Hepheastus ? Don't you want to forge with her and her Familia I think you could learn some stuff" Rimuru asked and Weöf looked kinda troubled but then said "If Hephaestus has nothi g against it"

"As for you little Lily I would have kicked you out when you didn'tsaid the trut" he paused "Well then welcome to the Hestia Familia"

"So .. Rimuru what level are you ?" I askef a bit shyly and he giggled "Mh I think I am Level 6 but I didn't update it in a long time by now"

"Hmpf to say that Sensei is Level 6" the girl besides Rimuru said in an angry tone which suprised me she was silently by rinuru's side the whole time.

"Chloe don't say something like this" he said pattingher head 'Hmpf I want one from Bell too!' I thought

"So what's the plan now Captain ?" Welf asked

"Ah you see .. we will wait until the Boss Monster appears" Rimuru said and all three of us looked confused and said in union "Boss Monster ?!?!?!?"

"Yup , why so suprised don't say me you don't felt the presence of it above you ?" He asked and we only got more confused.

Rimuru POV
I've checked the newby's .. well of course they are weak but I think they are good people. ButIhave more interests into another person to be honest it's an elv .. I am not horny okay !? Even when I love Elf

/Master~ Did you forget that you already have me and Luminous ?/ Ciel said in an scary voice

/Eh he haha Ciel of course I know that I didn't even thought of something different/ I said

/Lie detected , Master why aren't you honest with your first wife .. I need to discuss this matter with Luminous/ she said

/Ehhhhh Don't do that Ciel ! I will male everything you want to do tomorrow!/ I tried to save my life

/Fufu really ? Everything ?/ she asked

/Yes of course/ I said

/Fufu everything went acording to the plan/ Ciel said happy

/Huh ? Plan ? What was that Ciel ?/ I asked

/Nothing just your Imagination Master. I will remember what you promised/ She said and I knew I once again lost against Ciel

Then I walked to the person I wanted to talk to .. right that elf from the hostess of fertility named Ryuu.

"I guessed back then when we first met that you aren't just a Maid in that inn" I said as I casually walked to her she remained silent then I saw the tomb on it a lot of rusty weapons.

"Your old Familia I guess" I said standing next to her.

"Yes" she just said and laid down a few flowers seems like she gets here often to clean it up guess I should make something too.

/Ciel/ I just said

/Understood/ she replied as the rusty weapons changed and looked like they were new . She simply turned back their time.

"What did you do ? How is that possible ?" she asked suprised and I just smiled "Don't think to mich of it" I said.

"I come her once in the year staying a few days in the village and then visting them . I needed to burry them here at the place they died .. they would deserve more" Ryuu said

"Mhh seems like you can't overcome what happened on that day , after all your friends were murdered" I said and once again she looked shocked at me .. I know it's not the besttime to talk about somthing like this but it will help her to overcome the pain in her heart

"How do you knew that ?" She asked in a defensive stance "Don't be that aöarmed I won't do anything to you or your old friends" I said and made a pause

"I am here to inviteyou to the Hestia Familia as a spy in the hostess of Fertility" I said serious

"I have to decline" she said

"I see" I smiled "The offer is always open for you" I said and then left.

/Ciel how long until the boss Monster awakening?/

/A few hours Master/ She said

Welf POV

"Bell what kind of person is our captain?" I asked him and Lily looked as she just wanted to ask the same thing

"Mhh .. I don't really now but I think he really likes it to teach someone after all Chloe the Girl that accompinied him was once his student and I also had a few hellish lessions. But he is kind hearted I think .. and cruel to his enemys" Bell said eating his dish he bought for one magic stone

"Cruel to his enemy's ?" Lily asked interested 

"Mhm I once saw a servant of Rimuru who cutted of the arm of someone who was brabbling to much"  he said "And she let him suffer but then healed him and let him go" 

"Hooo I see I don't want to get in that servants way" I said 

"You don't need to worrie as long as you don't badmouth Rimuru she won't do anything .. ah and you guys saw that White heared Woman in our Mansion ?" Bell asked

"Yep" we both replied 

"It's his wife and she is pregnant at the moment" BEll said casually

"Whaaaaaaaat" Lily shouted "I need to find a good gift" 

"Mhhh maybe I should forge a few toys ?" I mumbled 

"Heee don't worrie they don't want gifts anyway" Bell said 

'This Hestia Familia is more then I thought and now they are even in a alliance with Hephaestus .. I need to talk about few things with her..'

Bell Pov 

Then after we finished our dishes and walked a bit through the forest and village .. suddenly an Earthquake started.

'Heee what's going on ?' I thought and looked back at Lily and Welf who both looked at me with fear 

"What's wrong ? Why are you looking at me li.." As I said this I realized they aren't looking at me but they are looking at something behind me. 

'Don't say me it's the ..' I turned around 

"Boss Monster ..." I too looked at fear at the Giant in front of me. But soo I calmed down 'I will just let Rimuru and Chloe handle this I am sure that thing is easy for them hehe'

Then suddenly I could hear Rimuru's Voice in my Head

'Yo Bell please fight this Monster with your friends I want to see how much you improved I won't fight it so you could die be carefully'

I wanted to answer something but realized that this strange connection already was turned off so I once again looked at the Monster 

"Shit..."
