Rimuru: "Selene" I sigh and think 'I wish I could hug you, I'm sorry that I didn't realize sooner what your skill truly was.' Looking at her "we'll come back to this, but what did you mean that you have more power than I realized? and what was the other thing you didn't want him to tell me."
Smiling at him for not blaming me to much "mhm, you see how we have gotten stronger after being named by eldest brother, right?" I say eldest brother instead of Veldora because Ranga is here.
Rimuru: "Yea? so what about it?"
Still having the smile on my face "well, all monsters already have power or strength associated with whatever race or species of monster they are. Which is why as you already know that some monsters are weaker in comparison, to others and when they get named by a stronger being than them. They're incredibly grateful to them right, being that the person that named them gives them a power boost that coming from power of the one that's naming them. On top of how strong they already are, which is why we call it a blessing. Because the power that we received from the one that named us, power merges with our own."
Rimuru: "Right... that's why we got named by the oldest brother..." catching what she means I ask. "Wait! Selene you're not saying what I think you're saying right?" as I look at her. Seeing her expression "Selene, so you're telling me that your species of hybrid has power separate from the one that you're born with?"
Nodding, while I look at him with a sad expression.
Rimuru: "Selene you...ha... don't tell me that is why you have been acting the way you have?" saying it exasperatedly I continue what I was saying "so that people wouldn't know that I am just as strong or a little less than you without your reserve power you did those things."
Not answering right away this time "mhmm... the threats that are coming is because of how strong we are already and with the feats we accomplished. Being that a lot of the history of my species is lost in time and with them going extinct, besides the cousin race which were the Dire wolves but being Ranga is now tempest wolves you could say all, but few traces of our existent is now gone. But being that their entire pack follows Ranga and has evolved to tempest wolves ends any connections to the werewolves even though their blood still flows in Ranga, even though it's very little only leaving one person that has a connection to my species but..."
Rimuru: Sensing that Selene isn't ready to share who that is yet "it's ok you don't have to speak about them... if you're not ready yet. But...Selene from now on I am not taking a step back you remember what I told you that if I feel that you're..."
Cutting, him off saying "Rimuru, n-no... please... not right now..." for me to show that I'm begging through my eyes as we meet each other gaze "I-I can... still handle this... no one knows... please just keep doing what you been doing big brother...a-and stay in the shadows, it's not time yet for you..." as I stop and get on my knees before saying "please....Rimuru...big brother... j-just trust me one more time, on this... please...!"
Rimuru: Seeing the desperation and begging from her expression, words, and actions while she's starting to cry "Selene... I know that you want to protect us, and that this is very important for you to do... BUT...! WHO WILL PROTECT YOU! WHEN I'M THE ONE HIDING HUH!?... WE DON'T KNOW WHEN YOU WILL BE FORCED TO USE YOUR TRUE POWERS! AND I DON'T WANT THAT DAY TO COME...!"
Having the shock show on my face from the sudden outburst from him causes my heart to flutter from the care, love, the need to protect, and s-something else I can't quite place a name for I sigh "o-ok... your right, I understand big brother from now on we'll do this together. but..."
Rimuru: Cutting her off while I wiped her tears "mhm and there's not buts I don't want you to worry, ok? as long as we work together and go based on what we can do. That is in the bounds of being allowed to be, by what you see in your spatial awareness skill. We will be able to protect each other and the village."
Getting up after he finished wiping my tears for, I didn't know that I had cried as some were still there that started to dry "you're right big brother and I'm sorry for keeping those things from you."
Rimuru: "That's fine. just remember when you need to talk that I'm here, ok?"
Smiling with the biggest smile that I show since coming to this world that show my feelings right as Rigurd opens the tent and asks "if he can come in."
Rimuru: "Yea, it's fine..." for me to look at Selene.
Understanding what he's glance means I connect to Ranga with thought communication 'Ranga, what you have heard in this tent doesn't leave it ok.'
Ranga: 'Understand Lord Selene.'
Rigurd: "I'm sorry to disturb you lord Rimuru... and lord Selene, but we have a report."
Rimuru: "About what?"
Widening my eyes due to me remembering what part that we're at "it's probably that Shizue and her friends are getting attacked by monsters right now."
Rimuru: "Rigurd, is that true?"
Rigurd: "U-umm I don't know who this Shizue is? but there are 4 humans being attacked by ant monsters."
Rimuru: "Ok, let's go then for I want Ranga and Selene to come with me, we have to go help them."
Selene and Ranga: "Ok."
(20 minutes later)
I reach where the report sighting was made first being that I'm the fastest to see Shizue killing the last ant monster for she's turning away from it while sheathing her weapon. Knowing that the last one is hiding, I start running to where it is. And when they saw me coming, I was able to see their shocked expression when they are getting ready to attack. But as soon that they do I jump over them, but I had saw Shizue let out her arm to stop them.
Having me 'she's just as sharp just like when her active days of being an adventurer, just like she always is. Even if Ifrit didn't interfere with her causing her to have to ignore it when she would have killed it' as I bite the monster on the neck killing while I lands on the other monsters corps. Walking past her to reach Rimuru I bow my head as a sign of thanks for she also nods her head to me, just when I reach Rimuru and the others that's emerging from the woods.
With the others now joining me and Rimuru I turn to face Shizue for the others she's with to look at us with confusion in their expressions.
Blonde haired male: "A slime and a dire wolve...?
Hearing what the blonde man said, "I'm not a dire wolve, but you can say I'm among those lines so just say I'm a wolve ok?"
Female: "Ok...then."
Hearings the uncertainty in her voice I ask "do you guys have problems with slimes and wolves?...
Blonde haired man: "No it's just that..."
Female: "We never knew a slime or wolve could talk."
(Back at the village)
Me and Rimuru are walking to the tent that we had put them in to eat while we're at the front of the tent we hear them arguing.
Rigurd: "I have gave them some food just like you ordered for them to eat when they had asked if they could have some to eat."
Rimuru: "That's good keep taking care of them" before we enter the tent.
