The Demon Lords Milim, Clayman, Carrion, and Frey were currently watching from a orb the results of the Orc disaster.
Milim: Interesting, very interesting! I'd like to go investigate this new toy personally!
Clayman: Now, now Milim. Don't forget our pact with the great forest of Jura.
Milim: What...? But, it's so dumb! I mean, with Veldora gone; Can't we just ditch the whole non-aggression pact?
Clayman: Now there's an idea... I don't see why not.
Carrion and Frey nodded in agreement.
Milim: Right then, it's decided! But, promise that we won't interfere with each other. Fair enough?
Clayman: Seems reasonable.
Milim: Well okay! As long as everyone's in agreement, I'm off to-
She then trailed off when she briefly looked back at the orb, her eyes immediately spotted the black haired boy standing next to the blue haired girl.
What really caught the others attention was that she seemed in a state of absolute shock.
Frey: Milim, are you alright?
Without another word, Milim suddenly left in a hurry leaving everyone confused at her sudden stop and reaction.
Milim's mind: Please... don't let this be a trick, Jasper are you finally back!?
Later
Rimuru's mind: Huh!? There's a magical meteor heading right towards us!
He quickly spotted the flying pink object and made his way up to a near by hill where it crashed in front of him.
Milim: Nice to meet you! I'm the one and only Dragonoid, the Destroyer. People call me the Demon Lord, Milim Nava.
Rimuru's mind: She's a Demon Lord!?
Milim: I heard you're the second strongest monster in the forests now, so I came to say hello.
Rimuru could tell she wasn't lying given that her aura was off the charts and even seemed to be on par with Veldora and Jasper's, but he quickly came back to his sense to see Milim poking him.
Rimuru: I-It's nice to meet you to, I'm Rimuru the leader of this town. It's pretty impressive that you could tell a little Slime like me was the second strongest one here.
Rimuru's mind: Jasper! I know you're out exploring the nearby areas, but please come back quickly!
Milim: Nah, when your as amazing as someone as I am, gaging someone's strength is easy. See, my Draconic {Milim's Eye} can detect the level of magicules in whoever it see's.
Rimuru: Oh! Sounds legit.
Milim: Yeah, so there's no point in pretending to be weak cuz I know better!
Rimuru's mind: What should I do, there's chance I can win against her...
Jasper (Rimuru! What was that!?)
Rimuru (OH THANK GOD!! Jasper we a got problem, a Demon Lord showed up!)
Jasper (Alright, keep them distracted I'm on my way now!)
Milim: Hey, is this Slime look really you're true form? In Gelmud's ball you looked different, you had this long Silver Blue hair and looked kind of Human.
Rimuru: Sounds like you know everything then...
He then transformed into his Human form, much to Milim's curiosity.
Milim: Neat! So does that mean you defeated the Orc Lord?
Rimuru: It was a tough battle... but, yeah I won. So... do you have business with me, you didn't come here to like avenge Gelmud did you?
Milim: I already told you, one of my 2 reasons for coming was to come say hello.
Rimuru's mind: Seriously!? Wait... what's the second one?
Before he could ask, Shion suddenly jumped into the air in an aggressive manner as Ranga snatched Rimuru away. When Shion's hit landed, Milim easily caught it with one hand before the single wave of her hand blasted Shion away. Souei then wrapped her in {Sticky Thread} as Benimaru used {Hell Flare}.
Milim: Hahaha!! That was pretty impressive! You know, that attack might have actually worked on a different Demon Lord. There's no way they could've escaped that attack in one piece. Still though, you're pitiful attacks have no effect on ME!!!
Her Aura increased so much that the ground shook and caused everyone to fly back. Rimuru had manage to get free from Ranga came back and gave them all {Health potions}. Before, sliding down into the crater.
Milim: Does this mean, you're gonna face me?
Rimuru: You seem confident, but you haven't taste any of my attacks!
Milim: Haha! Whatever, I do love a good challenge. I was also considering making you my subordinates, but seeing as how you're all Jasper's servants I can't do that.
Rimuru's Mind: Wait... she's knows Jasper!?
Rimuru (Jasper!)
Jasper (Yeah?)
Rimuru (This Demon lord says she knows you!)
Jasper (Really? What's her name?)
Rimuru (I think her name is... Milim.)
There was a sudden brief pause.
Jasper (Rimuru... I almost there, just keep her distracted a little longer.)
Rimuru (Uh... okay.)
Rimuru's mind: Why did he dodge the question?
{Great Sage: Her magicules to the nearest calculable degree, are 10-20x higher then yours and 2.5x higher then Jasper's.}
Rimur's mind: She hasn't even been taking this seriously, and she's already 10x stronger then me!
Rimuru then gathered some glowing yellow energy in his hand, before charging at her.
Rimuru: Hey Milim, open wide!
Curious, she did so and the yellow energy was shoved into her mouth.
Milim: WHAT KIND OF MAGIC IS THIS!? I'VE NEVER TASTED ANYTHING SO INCREDIBLE IN MY ENTIRE LIFE!!!
Rimuru: You know Demon Lord Milim, if you admitted defeat to me right now. I'd be happy to give you the rest of this "Magic".
Rimuru's mind: It's actually just some honey that we harvested.
Milim: I want it so badly! But, I can't just admit defeat... I am a Demon Lord after all!
Rimuru then ate some of the honey and mentioned how it was almost gone. Panicking, Milim quickly said they would call it a draw and even offered to never attack them again.
Rimuru: Very well, I accept you're proposal. And sure, just this once we can call it a draw.
He then handed her a jar of honey.
Milim: Yay! Oh that reminds me, I had another reason for being here.
Rimuru: What's that?
She then gave Rimuru a rather serious expression that basically said "Give me the answer I wanna hear, or this town goes boom".
Milim: Where is my cousin?
Before I could ask her what she meant, a pair of black wings stood in front of me. Jasper had finally come back.
Jasper: Seems my help, wasn't needed.
Milim was staring at Jasper and he returned the look.
Flashback
Many centuries ago, a nation under Jahil's control attempted to manipulate Milim by killing her only companion and pet Dragon Gaia, who was also meant to be the new body for the spirit of her father Veldanava.
In her rage, she laid waste to the neighboring nations and completely obliterated any she could find, including Jahil. Her rampage was interrupted by the arrival of the first Demon Lord, Gii Crimson.
For ten days and nights, Milim and Gii battled. The clash was so intense it turned the area they battled into a barren wasteland. Then the Queen of Spirits who some believed to be the reborn identity of the one true being who spawned the eight spirits. Suddenly appeared and used her power to absorb the energies leaking from both Gii and Milim.
While she did calm a bit, her rage still continued until came a man who looked not much older then her appeared. Before the fight could continue, the man grabbed Milim not in an attack, but in a comforting embrace.
Milim pounded her fists with all her might into the man, but he refused to let go and whispered soft reassuring words of comfort into her ears. Finally, she calmed down and the last thing that was remembered was her crying into the chest of the man; his shining scarlet eyes were gazing down at her in sympathy and understanding as he continued to do his best to calm her rage and sadness.
Flashback ends
Milim: J-Jasper...?
I looked at her and despite having my memories mostly gone, I knew who she was. Because for me... she was one of the things I could never forget.
Jasper: Yes Milim, it's me...
She then began to cry tears of happiness before she suddenly held me in an embrace, and all I could do was hug her back as she let out her cries.
After that, we all sat down on a rocky wall and Milim shared her honey with me. Everyone just stared at us in astonishment.
Rimuru: So... how do you two know each other?
Jasper: Oh, you all remember when I said I had a cousin that was a Demon Lord?
They all nodded, and I just pointed at her stating the obvious, surprising them all.
Rimuru: Oh yeah, you did say before that your cousin was a Demon Lord...
Jasper: You could have asked before, but you wasted your only question.
Rimuru: Oh screw yo-
Milim: Hey so, have you ever thought about becoming a Demon Lord yourself?
Rimuru: Nah, it honestly sounds like a pain in the Slime.
Milim Huh!? But, doesn't everyone wanna become like us?
Rimuru: Hell no!
Jasper: Does something cool happen if you become one?
Milim: Oh come on Jasper, you already know what happens.
Jasper: I... have some amnesia, so I can't remember everything.
Milim: Oh... Well, I'm glad you didn't forget about me!
Rimuru: So...?
Milim: Well, strong opponents come to challenge you to fights.
Jasper: That already happens quite a bit...
Milim: Then what do you do?
Rimuru: Lots, our days are like crazy busy. Is there anything special that Demon Lords do other then fighting?
Milim: Not really... but, we get to boss Majin and powerful Humans around all day.
I mean, so do we... so I don't really get why she's- oh...
Jasper: You get bored easily, don't you?
This was confirmed when she gave us a completely shocked and dumbfounded expression.
Rimuru: Also, why did you only ask me if I wanted to be a Demon Lord?
Milim: W-Well I mean, Jasper is our mediator so it doesn't really make much sense for him to be a Demon Lord.
Jasper: I see... wait, WHAT!?
Everyone: MEDIATOR!?
Milim: Oh yeah, so back in the day you and Citrine were the mediators between the Demon Lords to make sure they didn't do anything too stupid to each other or the world.
Citrine?
{Mimir: A being who appears to rival you, she seems to live in the far west in the country known as the Barren Lands and resides in the city called Damargania the Holy Void ruled by the True Giant Demon Lord Dagruel.}
Rimuru: Well, we should head back. Save travels and all-
Milim: Hold on, you're doing something way more fun then being a Demon Lord aren't you!?
He tried to deny it, but Milim began shaking and squeezing him. I tried to intervene, but the 2 of us just got stuck in a tug of war match that ended with Rimuru jumping out after agreeing to show Milim around.
Rimuru: Fine, but one condition. You must refer to me as Mr. Rimuru!
Milim: Screw that! I'm stronger, you should respect me and call me Lady Milim!
Jasper: How about this, Rimuru will call you only Milim and you'll call him only Rimuru.
Milim: Ok... but, only him. Usually I would only allow you or other Demon Lords to address me in such a casual manner.
Rimuru: Guess this makes us friends... I'll show you the village under the condition that you don't cause any trouble. Got it Milim?
Milim: Don't worry.
That might be an issue, since we have a few people in town that when you see them you get a strong urge to punch them.
Gabiru: Oh, who might this be?
Ah, speak of the devil...
Gabiru: Hi there, little runt.
The second he said that, Milim quickly punched him so hard that the violently rolled back all the way to town, while crashing in the street.
Milim: Do you have a death wish!? Call me a runt again! Listen! I promised my cousin and Rimuru that I would behave, so I only used a bit of my power. But, next time I won't be so generous.
Jasper: See, we have a few people who you just suddenly get the urge to punch into oblivion.
Gabiru: GAHH! Look there's father, waving at me from the great beyond.
Jasper: Your Father's still alive, idiot...
Gabiru: By the way, who is this little ru-
Milim quickly gave him a dark glare that made him quickly change his wording.
Rimuru: That's Milim, she's a Demon Lord.
Gabiru: WOAH!! A DEMON LORD!?
Rimuru: Dude, chill...
Rimuru... his reaction is fair considering the situation.
Rimuru: Listen, Milim you can't go slugging the crap out of people when you get mad.
Milim: Then he shouldn't have insulted me, it's not my fault he can't handle how I say hello.
Jasper: That's a way to say hello!? I got a test in out when I see Gobta again.
Rimuru deadpanned at me.
Rimuru: Nobody can handle how you say hello!
Milim: Jasper can!
Rimuru: Well unfortunately, just about everyone here isn't like Jasper.
Jasper: How durable even am I? ...Questions for later.
We then gathered everyone up to introduce Milim.
Rimuru: This is our new ally! She's visiting here as a special guests, so please treat her with respect.
Milim: Hi, I'm Milim Nava!
Everyone was astonished, and began commenting about Milim's reputation and also how skilled we are to befriend someone like her.
Rimuru (Who knew, Milim was so famous.)
Jasper (I mean, she is one of the oldest and strongest Demon Lords.)
Milim: I've decided to live here, from now on.
Rimuru: WHAT!? You mean like "live here", live here?
Milim: Yeah, what else would I mean?
I mean... I guess the Dragon Faithful won't question her sudden disappearance for a while.
(Note: When it comes to characters that are important to him, Jasper can regain a lot more memories when he sees them.)
Jasper: Ok, starting today we have a brand new resident.
Milim: If you need anything at all, I'm happy to help!
Everyone cheered in excitement.
Rimuru: "Mumble" I can't believe we're friends...
Milim: Yeah, it doesn't seem right...
Rimuru: You can hear me?
Jasper: You said it out loud...
Milim: I don't believe, we're really friends... WE'RE BEST FRIENDS!!
Rimuru: Best friends!?
Milim: We are... r-right?
She started to tear up and Rimuru quickly confirmed this statement.
Rimuru: WE'RE BESTIES FOR ESTIES!!!
Everyone: BESTIES FOR ESTIES!!
Later
While Milim, Shuna, Souka, and Shion were bathing in the hot springs. Me, Rimuru, Benimaru, Rigurd, Hakuro, Kaijin, and Souei were sitting in the hot spring's podium.
Rigurd: My lords.
Rimuru: What's up my guy?
Rigurd: It's about Lady Milim. I never imagined a Demon would take the initiative to come here.
Jasper: Honestly, given my power I'm more surprise they didn't come here earlier.
Rimuru: Plus, she promised not to cause any problems without permission.
Kaijin: While that is true, there's is some concern as to whether the other Demon Lords noticed us or not.
Rimuru: What do you mean?
Jasper: There are several Demon Lords in total. Gii Crimson, Milim Nava, Ramiris, Daggruel, Valentine, Kazalim, Leon Cromwell, Clayman, and others.
Kaijin: They usually keep a close eye on each other. You see, bringing Lady Milim here and with Lord Rimuru claiming a close friendship with her and Prince Jasper being called a relative of hers. This places our town under her protection, under normal circumstances that would probably be a good thing. But...
Hakuro: What he's trying to say is that you're the leaders of this nation. You have to realize that when the Demon Lords learn you have befriended Lady Milim, it will appear that the forests of Jura have entered into an Alliance with her.
Benimaru: Meaning, Lady Milim will gain more influence among the other Demon Lords and upset the delegate balance of power.
Jasper: Let's be honest, they're all probably trying to upset the balance of power. Really, the only Demon Lord who tries to maintain the balance of power is Gii Crimson.
Rimuru: You mention him a lot...
Jasper: Naturally, Gii is the oldest and arguably the strongest of all the Demon Lords with his only real rival for that title being Milim. Plus, he's the only Demon Lord that's an actual Demon.
Rigurd: Still, what choice did we have. It's not we could refuse a Demon Lord of her power.
Benimaru: Yes, her power is on a completely different level. Thanks to our lords both me and Souei are still here...
Souei: Exactly, and if the other Demon Lords get involved. Then I doubt we could stand against them...
Rimuru: Actually, I'm not entirely sure on that front.
Rigurd: What do you mean?
Rimuru: During my fight with Milim, Her current magciules are 10x higher then mine. But, only 2.5x higher then Jasper's with neither one of them taking things seriously. And if what Jasper said about her being the strongest Demon Lord is true, then that means he's already powerful enough to rival the strongest Demon Lords.
Benimaru: Also, Since he's the nephew of the Storm Dragon and Cousin of the destroyer. Along with being the official Guardian of the Jura forests, that means Jasper is already a force to be reckoned with and has a lot of influence on the world stage.
Kaijin: This means that we're already is a good position in terms of political standing and in terms of protection!
Rigurd: So thankfully, given all these combined factors we can just leave everything to Prince Jasper to handle.
Everyone: That's true!
DON'T LEAVE ME TO DEAL WITH THIS ON MY OWN, YOU ASSHOLES!!
Hakuro: Milim is one of the strongest Demon Lord so making an enemy out of her would be a bad thing, so we leave everything in you're capable hands Prince Jasper.
Meanwhile, we could overhear Milim and Shion getting in a splash fight with Souka sounding like she was tempted to join in, much to Shuna's chagrin.
Later
While Milim slept in the next room, we gathered the rest of the executives to continue the conversation from yesterday.
Rimuru: Therefore, I believe the best one suited to be in charge of Milim is her cousin, and guardian of the forest.
Jasper: What!?
Hakuro: I agree.
Souka: I agree too.
Shuna: I also agree.
Shion: Agreed!
Souei: Agreed.
Benimaru: Agreed.
Treyni: Disagreed.
Everyone then turned to Treyni in confusion. While, I look at her with hope.
It's not like I didn't mind hanging around with Milim, but given how she is... I felt more comfortable if I wasn't alone watching her.
Rimuru: Why's that?
Treyni: While, I agree with Master Jasper being the one who can most likely handle Lady Milim. Have you considered the potential ramifications.
Benimaru: Such as?
Treyni: We all know that Milim is only 2.5x stronger then Master Jasper. So, what will happen if the 2 get into a disagreement and it leads to a potential fight?
Rigurd: A fight between Prince Jasper and Lady Milim would be quite a disaster...
Treyni: Correct, in fact it has the chance of destroying the entire forests of Jura and everyone in it. Even if they held back. As a caretaker of the forests, I cannot allow that.
Everyone seemed to be reconsidering, until...
Rimuru: True, but we all saw how Jasper and Milim reacted after seeing each other after so long. So, Milim probably won't do anything reckless or destructive at the risk of being condemned by Jasper.
Souka: She does seem to take in and cares more about his opinion then anyone else's...
Rimuru: Exactly, so wouldn't it
