Chapter 98: Troublemaker
🕑 Added 2022-04-26 02:23:06 +0000 UTCRimuru's face would have turned pale in fear by now if he had one. Yuki's actions were beyond his expectations… To actually dare to act recklessly like this in a kingdom and attack their minister. This is definitely not going to end well!
'What should I do? What should I do?' Rimuru thought in panic as Yuki approached him and asked "How can you let any random person humiliate you like that? And right after you dared to dream big… How disappointing"
"But Yuki-san, I just didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble…" Said Rimuru with a weak voice to which Yuki simply replied "And what about this dwarf that was planning to take the blame for your inaction, is it fine for him to have all that trouble following him"
Kajini's eyes widened in surprise at this, and the same thing happened with the elves as they finally realized why Yuki stopped Kaijin and took matters into his own hands instead…
"You are right but…" Rimuru tried to justify his passiveness but Yuki didn't give him any chance to do so. He truly believed that this time, Rimuru simply lucked out because Gazel appreciated Kaijin so he would let him go instead of doing him harm so he decide to teach him a lesson. After all, If it was a corrupt king they were dealing with which there are plenty of in this world. That poor dwarf would have lost his head instantly.
"Think carefully about today's incident and what could have happened… Otherwise, you will soon start losing those close to you to this cruel world" Said Yuki with a serious face as Rimuru remained silent before he turned to Kaijin and said with an elegant smile
"Thank you for standing up for this guy, he usually avoids fighting as much as possible which is a problem sometimes"
"Ah, no, Rimuru-san is my guest, it's only right I don't let people humiliate him in front of me" Said Kaijin awkwardly.
Yuki nodded at him and said "You still tried to hit that windows Xp guy, don't worry if they try anything funny, I will make sure to give them a tight slap on the ass"
Then Yuki's smile turned slightly weirder as he said to the elves "This special one time offer is also open for you ladies"
"Perv…" They yelled at him, although this greatly lessened the heavy atmosphere in the bar which was Yuki's intention to begin with as he stared into the distance where a group of guards were carrying the injured Vesta and another group was coming to arrest them probably…
'Well, How are you going to handle me Gazel' Thought Yuki with a wicked smile as he chatted with the people in the bar while Rimuru remained silent and appeared to be contemplating something…
'Great sage, what are the chances that something wrong could have happened to Kaijin after this incident?' Thought Rimuru and he instantly received his answer.
[In normal circumstances, attacking someone of a higher position publicly has a very high chance of ending up in execution or a lifetime in a jail filled with torture]
Rimuru remained silent for a little bit after he received this answer before he stared at the smiling Yuki that didn't seem to care about the incoming trouble and jumped from the lap of the girl he was sitting on and into the table before he said to Yuki "From now on, I won't be as careless in the future"
Hearing the conviction in his voice, Yuki nodded at him silently. And right after, a group of guards arrived in front of the bar
"Brother Kaijin, I'm sorry but you are under arrest along with that slime and the man that hit Minister Vesta, please follow me without a fight…" Said a dwarf named Kaido, he was Kaijin's little brother and the captain of the guards, and the same person that jailed Rimuru the first time…
"I will take all responsibility! Yuki and Kaijin did nothing wrong!" Yelled Rimuru as he stood up in front of the crowd garnering all the attention on himself as Kaido said with a helpless smile "I wish It was that easy, but I need to arrest everyone involved in this mess, Rimuru-san. Please follow me for now, I will try my best to get this matter solved peacefully"
Rimuru wasn't convinced so he turned to Yuki to ask for advice "Yuki-san, what should we d— eehhhhh? Where's Yuki?"
….
"HAHAHAHAHA What a foul, he really thinks I will waste my time with the 3rd rate drama of those stupid dwarves, Nah no thanks" Muttered Yuki as he traveled through the streets of Dwargon to find any more targets he could take advantage of.
Although he was planning to see if things were going to end up just as they should or not so he will visit the castle when they try to pass judgment on Rimuru and Kaijin…
….
Inside the castle where the king resides, there was a huge treasury filled with all kinds of rare armors, weapons, materials, treasures, and whatnot. And it was guarded by the best of the best that this armed nation of Dwargon had to offer.
However, despite all of this, Yuki still walked confidently inside the treasury planning to steal as much as he could. However just as he did, a magic formation suddenly triggered and tried to trap him inside of it which he quickly dodged as he went further inside the treasury hurriedly…
'Damn it, how can they detect me when I'm phantom phasing?' Wondered Yuki who did a huge miscalculation. He became overconfident after seeing how Yurei easily infiltrated the Auction house and stole items from under the protection of Sarion's great magic so he thought he could do the same since he had a similar ability.
But he didn't think about the fact that Yurei's phantom phasing was Maxed out. Not to mention that he had an ability that completely erases his presence... which is why he ended up being found out now.
After all in his phasing state, he could be considered as a spiritual being, and this world had plenty of countermeasures for them… Especially a strong nation like Dwargon.
"Tch, I will just get the essence of gold and get the hell out of this dump" Muttered Yuki as he skillfully searched for what he desired in the section of the treasury that housed rare materials before he quickly escaped using phantom phasing and quick step just in time before he gets discovered by the guards…
…
World of this infiltration quickly reached the ears of the king of the dwarves who was sitting on his throne as an old man informed him of all the bad reports received today with a frown on his face "Multiple robberies, Vesta almost dying and now this. That brat really thinks my kingdom is easy to mess up with"
"My king, we couldn't find any evidence that links that guy Yuki to the robberies, no we even keep finding evidence that other blacksmiths were stealing from each other. However, we think that it was done on purpose to mislead us" Said the old man, and Gazel nodded calmly at him in agreement with his conclusion
"Don't worry, he won't stay hidden for too long after we proceed with the judgment of that slime and Kaijin" Said Gazel as he thought 'This would also be a great test to his character and show if he's just a petty thief or not…'
The old man beside him quickly went to follow his orders and sent some guards to visit the castle's jail and bring Rimuru and Kaijin over as well as vesta that was healed with the potions that Rimuru provided.
The courtroom was instantly filled with soldiers on both sides, as Gazel overlooked it from his high seat and observed any signs of Yuki but he didn't see any, and no one else did for that matter. Although if they turned their attention to their armed guards, they would have noticed that one of them was yawning while listening to their boring drama.
However, this quickly changed when Gazel suddenly said "Slime, you came to my kingdom and caused trouble, how are you planning to atone for your sins"
Rimuru was extremely nervous after being pressured by the king's pressure but he stood his ground and said "What trouble? I did nothing, People keep trying to attack me just because I'm a slime, I'm just trying to defend myself"
'This guy seems okay, it's that Yuki who's the problem' Thought Gazel before he pressed even further to get Yuki to come out "The judgment is done, both of you shall be imprisoned for life—"
Vesta instantly burst out laughing bringing a frown to Gazel's face as he said "HAHAHAHA Kaijin, you finally got what you deserve! Just wait, I will make sure that hateful guy joins you as well"
"I Object your honor" Yelled a loud voice, as a soldier suddenly walked out of line and stood in front of everyone causing all the attention to focus on him
"How dare you step out of line soldier, quick go back to your position" Said a guard captain, but Gazel simply raised his hand and said "Speak your mind soldier, although you will be punished if it's not of importance"
The guard nodded at him and said "Your honor I will say this from the bottom of my heart"
Gazel nodded at him seriously and the guard took a deep breath and said "This armor I'm wearing sucks, damn it's too hard to move in, how in the hell do you guys wear such a thing? and how do you piss? does it have a hidden compartment that opens down there?" Said Yuki as he slowly removed the armor and threw it to the side. And all the while the courtroom turned dead silent with the only sound being the pieces of armor hitting the ground one after the other…
'This guy is definitely insane… Great sage can you evaluate Yuki's mental state?' said Rimuru in his mind and the great sage replied with certainty [He's definitely abnormal]
"How dare you act like this in front of the king"
"Arrest this man"
Weapons were instantly pointed at Yuki after they regained their composure, but he remained unmoved as he stared at Gazel with a smile and said "Yo Gazel, long time no see buddy, how's the family"
Gazel stared at him with wide eyes before he slashed with his sword at him at a terrifying speed sending a deadly slash that silenced the courtroom.
Yuki smiled faintly after seeing this 'If I dodge, the slash would hit Kaijin… What a sneaky guy' thought Yuki before he simply punched the terrifying slash causing it to completely disperse while Yuki's hand remained completely intact to the shock of the onlookers.
"This guy… He actually blocked the king's attack with his bare hands? What kind of monster is this!"
"His body must be tough beyond measures, I didn't feel him using any magic"
Gazel as well was surprised by this fact as he said "I'm not your buddy, and you dared to cause so much trouble in my kingdom, you better have an explanation for it" Said Gazel as he jumped from his throne with his sword in his hand as multiple formations lit up inside the courtroom, all targeting Yuki.
"Please halt my king, you don't have to fight each other, Yuki-san just hit Vesta in the first place because of my impulsiveness, I should be the only one punished here" said Kaijin, and Gazel simply shot him a weird look as he thought 'No, my problem with this young man is that he's a thief, not that he hit that idiot Vesta'
Yuki put his hand on Kaijin's shoulder and dragged him behind him before he approached Gazel calmly who stood on guard all the time…
"My king be careful" Yelled the guards but Gazel interrupted them with a wave of his hand as he watched Yuki getting into striking distance from him and yet still kept going to the shock of everyone before he whispered something into his ears with a weird smile and stepped back…
Gazel's eyes widened in shock before he shot Rimuru a look and sheathed his sword as he contemplated silently…
