Clank! Clank! Clank! Clank! Clank!

The battle between the hero king and the Holy Empire’s hero gets more intense as time goes on. As more intense the battle becomes. The one who is holding the upper hand got more obvious too.

Slime Tarot observed the battle from a safe distance, Hero Lian’s sword style is attacking, he skillfully attacks and strikes towards any part that showed a sign of weakness or unguarded. But that strategy didn’t work on Peter.

(I think I should call him by his real name by now, but calling him Peter is far more comfortable, though) (Slime)

Peter’s fighting style is impenetrable defense with powerful and unpredictable counterattacks. His impenetrable defense frustrates Hero Lian, and his unpredictable counterattacks made the Holy Empire’s hero and afraid to attack too much.

Slime could see that the Holy Empire’s hero is racking his brain to find the strategy on how to break Peter’s defense. While Peter on the other hand is calmly observing the Hero too.

Slime chuckled.

“He completely controlled the flow of the battle, huh,” (Slime)

“Remember that we have a deal, Hero Lian,” Provoked Peter with a tone that indicates his confidence in winning.

“Yes, I remember, your majesty,” Answered Hero Lian as he continues to attacks.

(Peter. You might have become a great king in such a short time, but this time, you miss the thing that you should have not. It’s true that as a king, you need to see through the risks that might fall into your kingdom, but it’s also necessary to not just look at someone’s real intention, but towards what he needs) (Slime)

(Because you only let your kingdom and your friends enter your shield, you’ve completely missed it) (Slime)

“The hero’s desperate call for help,” Slime muttered in a low voice.

Clank! Clank! Clank!

Their bouts got even intense as they start to use their element. The hero king used the wind element, while the hero used the holy element. Both of them have their own advantages, making the fight even fiercer.

But despite their battle getting fiercer and sent much stronger shockwaves throughout the surroundings, none of the Grandarian officers, soldiers, or nobles stepped back. They just put on their barriers and continue to watch the battle unfold.

But the Holy Empire’s hero is not called a hero for nothing. Despite he almost got cornered by Peter before, he started to adapt to Peter’s irregular strikes and blocks and could now predict some of Peter’s counterattacks trajectory.

But as the battle goes on, both of them seem to get too absorbed with their battle. The battle gets even more intense to the point that they started to use their full power at the battle.

“Albus,” (Sera)

“Roger,” Replied Albus as he chants a powerful barrier surrounding the Hero king and the Holy Empire’s Hero battlefield so that they won’t harm the spectators.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Each of their bouts makes a sound of an explosion. Sera tried to call her brother to take him back to his senses but it’s no use. They’re too absorbed in the battle against each other.

“Seriously, you too… Even though I’ve decided to not enter the stage, this time…” (Slime Tarot)

Peter and Hero Lian collided once more before jumping back and chant their strongest strike. Their faces are full of smiles, completely absorbed by the excitement of the battle.

“[Steel Wind Strike]!” (Peter)

“[Crusader’s Strike]!” (Hero Lian)

Peter unleashed a powerful wind elemental strike, while Hero Lian used a powerful holy elemental strike. If both of the strikes collided and they continue the fight, both of them will definitely injure themselves.

Alfred let out a small sigh as he about to enter the stage and knock out the both of them, but another man appeared in the middle of the two before him.

“[Shield of Flame], [Shield of Darkness]” Slime appeared in the middle of Peter and Hero Lian and cast a shield of flame to block Peter’s wind elemental attack, while shield of darkness to block Hero Lian’s holy elemental attack.

The fire elemental shield absorbs the wind elemental strike and got stronger, while the holy elemental strike absorbs the impure shield of darkness and disappeared after dissolving the shield

“The both of you sure need to learn self-restraint,” Said Slime with a wry smile on his face.

As he just regained his right mind, Peter finally realized what he had done. At the battle against the Potterland kingdom, he needs to stay at the castle to stabilize the kingdom, so he didn’t get any chance to fight and strive together with his friends.

Fighting the Hero Lian somehow made him vent up his frustrations for not being able to fight alongside his friends, making him got too absorbed with the fight.

“Forgive me for showing you such an unsightly side of me, Sir Slime,” apologized Peter.

“It’s fine, your majesty. It’s a rather exciting and inspiring battle anyways,” Answered Slime with a shrug.

“That idiot, what is he doing there?” (Sera)

“You are?” Asked Hero Lian.

“It’s an honor to meet you, dear hero of the Holy Empire. I am Slime Tarot, an official of the Tarot empire,” Slime Tarot indifferently greets the Holy Empire’s hero and introduces himself.

Even though Peter and the others had tried their best to not mention anything about the Tarot empire since it might spark a seed of conflict with the Holy Empire, but on the other hand, Slime easily introduced himself to be an official of the Tarot empire without showing any sign of concern.

The reason why he didn’t introduce himself as the ambassador of the Tarot empire is that he is no longer the ambassador of the Tarot empire. Since the beginning, he is just a temporary ambassador that will only take care of the first step of the embassy, but since now they have a mutually friendly relationship with the Grandaria kingdom, and since the embassy could now stand on their own, Slime gave the position to a noble from the tarot empire to make sure he could make any moves freely.

“I see… Nice to meet you, sir Slime,” Greeted the Hero Lian.

The saintess and the heroes of the Holy Empire knew that Peter and the other avoid talking about the Tarot empire and didn’t even give them any chance to mention about the topic. They know the reason why they don’t want to mention about the Tarot empire in front of them since the hostility of the Holy Empire towards the demihumans is known by everyone.

But the fact that the Slime Tarot appeared right before them without showing any sign of fear made them confused. Saintess Elvira observes Slime carefully, she observes him from his shoes, his clothes, and the last his face.

!!!!!

Their eyes met.

“Interesting…” Slime muttered as he saw Saintess Elvira’s face that got pale as soon as their eyes met.

As Slime Tarot is just a small part of Slime Oz, he is linked towards Slime Oz. As Saintess Elvira tried to dive into his mind using her ability, she ended up diving into the imperial capital of the great Tarot empire, and only ended up in horror because of the countless terrifying presences there.

“W-What did you-” (Hero Lian)

“I believe you’ve lost the bet you agreed on, Hero Lian. You need to be true to your promises,” Cut Slime.

“L-Lost?” Asked Hero Lian as they didn’t know what the outcome is since their blows got blocked by Slime Tarot.

“Your holy elemental strike has the ability to pierce and pulverize anything it went through, while in the other hand, the Grandarian King’s wind elemental strike sent a countless amount of wind blades that formed a single line,” (Slime Tarot)

“In case that your strikes collided, your holy elemental strike would pulverize his majesty’s wind elemental strike and vanishes. But that’s where you lost. If I didn’t block his majesty’s strike with the fire barrier before, the leftover of the wind blades that your holy elemental strike didn’t manage to pulverize would have shred you to pieces, young hero. Am I wrong, lady magician?” Slime asked towards the magician of the Holy Empire’s hero party.

“Y-Yes… You’re right…” Answered her shyly.

“I see… So I’ve lost…” Muttered Hero Lian in lost.

“Yes, you are. But it’s fine, you’ve lost to the right person, young man,” (Slime)

“W-What did you mean?” Asked the hero.

“I noticed your desperate calls, so you can relax. ‘We’, will take over from this point,” (Slime Tarot)
