"Being able to serve Master is our supreme happiness."
His voice carried a hint of excitement.
"Well~ Since that's the case, you can stay."
"Thank you, Master!"
"Thank you, Master!" x150
After a demon's rank rises to a certain level, they will choose their own color scheme.
That is, Red, Gold, Blue, Green, Purple, White, and Black—the seven Primordial color schemes.
And the demons Rimuru summoned all belonged to those who chose Black. Strictly speaking, these demons could all be counted as Diablo's kin and subordinates.
At this moment, they were of course following their boss.
"Um... 'Master' or whatever is weird; just call me Rimuru."
Rimuru said a bit embarrassedly.
"Ah~ Ri, mu, ru, what a wonderful name!"
"Then from now on, we shall address you as Lord Rimuru."
"Uh..."
This guy is so weird, Rimuru complained in its heart.
"Um... do you guys have names? If not, it's a hassle to address you."
"Names?"
Diablo thought for a moment. "Black" was just his code name; if possible... he hoped to receive a name from his Master.
Seeing that they remained silent, Rimuru presumed they had no further requests.
"Then I shall grant you names as your reward."
"That... that truly is the greatest reward possible."
Black and his demon subordinates looked toward Rimuru with great anticipation.
"Since you are demons... hmm... ah, I have it."
"You shall be named Diablo!"
In the next instant, Rimuru's Magicules, which had just surged tenfold due to his evolution into a True Demon Lord, suddenly decreased by half.
One must realize that when he evolved into a Demon Lord Species, his internal Magicules had reached nearly 300,000 by devouring the Orc Lord's massive reserves—roughly equivalent to Clayman at the time.
Later, he had consumed the core of the Charybdis, even if it was incomplete.
However, the Charybdis possessed the Storm Dragon's storm attributes, allowing it to continuously devour surrounding Magicules like a hurricane or tornado, reaching the level of an Awakened Demon Lord.
That small piece contained a staggering amount of energy.
After Rimuru consumed it, his internal Magicules had reached nearly 400,000.
With this awakening into a Demon Lord, it had surged directly to a terrifying value of 4 million; even if Draco's MP were converted to Magicules, it would only be around 3 million.
Of course, Draco could cheat; his Immortal Demon Form boosted him tenfold, reaching a horrific 30 million.
Thus, one can imagine the sheer scale of naming Diablo, which drained half of Rimuru's magic in one go.
Even for the currently awakened Clayman, the Magicules in his body had only increased from 300,000 to 700,000.
It was the equivalent of draining three Demon Lord Claymans.
As for why Rimuru's growth was so terrifying, one must mention the benefits of the Gullible Dragon.
Rimuru possessed the Storm Dragon's protection, allowing him to obtain his storm attributes.
In this world's four basic elemental True Dragons, the concept of the Storm Dragon is the most unique; it is an infinite proliferation concept within the authority of the Creator God Star King Dragon, growing stronger over time just as a storm gathers.
So, while the Gullible Dragon was the last to be born among the True Dragons, the amount of Magicules in his body was even more terrifying than that of his two older sisters.
Rimuru, possessing the Storm Protection, naturally inherited this, which was one reason why his strength increased so rapidly.
Even his subordinates possessed similar traits.
This was why Draco cared about Anderson's cultivation method; he lacked such traits and had gained his strength through his own hard work.
Now, after receiving his name, Diablo's strength had recovered by more than half, yet it was still far from his prime.
The high-level account had been found, but the password was not yet in hand.
