Chapter 1073 Rimuru's Box Opened; The Useless Slime Coaxed into an Embryo
However, how did Ali know that 'Xia Er' had this ability? I didn't even know myself, how could Ali know?!
And judging from Ali's expression, it shouldn't be a guess!
So determined!?
Thinking about this, Rimuru was filled with doubt.
Could it be... that 'Xia Er' and A Li are hiding some secret she doesn't know about!?
Or perhaps Xia Er and 'A Li' are secretly sharing some unknown secret?
Thinking of this, Rimuru unconsciously became more vigilant.
At this moment, Ciel was still working hard to deduce the 'ultimate skill', completely unaware that his master had already become wary of him!
Otherwise, even someone as wise as 'Ciel' would cry.
After all, she really adores Rimuru!
Everything she did was for Rimuru's good. If it could make Rimuru better, Ciel wouldn't hesitate to sacrifice her own existence.
This is Ciel's... 'love' for Rimuru!
Meanwhile, Morro, standing opposite Rimuru, watched Rimuru's expression change from bewilderment to shock, and then to realization, and nodded in agreement.
It seems that Ciel has shared some of his abilities with Rimuru.
That's how it should be. The 'Rimuru' in the original work is really a bit too... 'dumb', even a little bit silly in some ways!
Despite being the 'protagonist' of the entire anime, possessing all kinds of abilities, and having sufficient strength, he knows almost nothing?
It's fine if someone is very capable but doesn't realize it. But if they keep doing this, it's really making them look stupid.
Of course, 'Charles' must have been involved in this as well.
Looking at what Ciel did in the original work, in a way, Ciel wanted to mold Rimuru into someone who couldn't live without her, and wanted Rimuru to be completely with her.
While it offered a small sense of reassurance, most of it was still somewhat creepy and chilling.
However, it is undeniable that Ciel would not harm Rimuru, to the point that he does not want Rimuru to be in any danger whatsoever, and wants to eliminate in advance all people or things in this world that may threaten Rimuru!
For example, in the original work, characters like Benimaru, Zekion, Diavolo, and Testarossa all obtained the ultimate skills mass-produced by Ciel early on, but only Shion did not.
It's not for any other reason than that the ultimate skill of Shion, which was deduced by Ciel, could threaten Rimuru's safety!
That's why she didn't grant 'Shion' the ultimate skill. Ciel doesn't care about anyone else's feelings; her primary goal is to absolutely ensure 'Rimuru's' safety!
Even if the probability of Shion's 'ultimate skill' harming 'Rimuru' is extremely small, it is still the same!
However, in 'Moli's' view, this method is wrong, because if it is done this way, 'Rimuru' will never grow up.
Even in the end, 'Rimuru' was invincible.
Yet he remains the same naive, kind, and even slightly overly kind-hearted Rimuru.
Of course, there's nothing wrong with that.
After all, it's good to stick to your original intentions.
However, this behavior, which is almost like raising a child or nurturing a hothouse flower, is a bit too indulgent towards 'Rimuru'.
This is something that needs to be changed.
Sometimes, appropriate threats and pressure can be beneficial to a person's growth.
In other words, the current 'Ciel' can't do anything to him, and his relationship with 'Rimuru' is special.
Otherwise, 'Charles' would definitely have schemed against him thoroughly, and even if he didn't kill him, he would have controlled him.
Although these are all just Mo Li's guesses, they are all highly probable.
Rimuru, who had already come to his senses, stared at Mo Li with an incredulous expression.
"Ah Li, how did you know I have that... um, the ability to grant 'others' 'ultimate skills'!?"
"You know, even I didn't know these things."
Rimuru looked at Mo Li with a strange expression, his words full of doubt.
"Could it be that you... and me..."
Rimuru wanted to voice her suspicions to pressure her 'Ari' and see if he had any shady dealings with her 'mind core' Ciel!
"Alright. No need to guess anymore."
"Given the capabilities of the 'Divine Core,' it would be strange if it didn't possess this ability. The 'Divine Core' represents a higher level of power than the 'Ultimate Skill.'"
"Deducing the 'ultimate skill' is not a difficult task."
Mo Li answered Rimuru's question casually.
"Oh... wait a minute! Ali, how did you know that my 'King of Wisdom' had given birth to a 'Divine Core'!? No way!"
Rimuru nodded, but after regaining his senses, his expression changed drastically, and his words were full of disbelief.
She never told 'Ali' about Xia Er's existence. You see, after the 'Empire' returned, they immediately began preparing to host the 'Demon King's Banquet,' and then they held the 'Demon King's Banquet,' doing this and that!?
How did Ali know about the existence of 'Xia Er'?
You should know that this is Rimuru's biggest secret, bar none!
Her box was opened!?
"Heh heh heh, do you really think I don't recognize who fought the 'Scorching Dragon' Velgarend back in the 'Empire' era?"
"Everything you know is something I taught you. I know your temperament and personality inside and out."
"Do you think I can't tell that the person who controlled your body to fight 'Scorching Dragon' Velgrendor is you?"
Mo Li glanced at Rimuru, whose face was full of disbelief, and spoke calmly, but with a hint of helplessness and disgust.
"Know, know the root, know the whole story!? This, this, this... that, this, that I, I, I..."
At this moment, Rimuru's face was flushed, and he didn't pay any attention to the main point of the words. His mind was full of the four words "knows everything about him" that Mo Li had said!
Ali said he knew her inside and out, knew her inside and out...
Looking at Rimuru in this state, Mo Li's handsome face was full of helplessness.
Isn't that the main point?
At this moment, Ciel, residing in Rimuru's mind, felt utterly powerless looking at his slime's pathetic state.
No! Weren't you planning to test why 'Morax' knew your secret?
Why did someone manage to charm you into this state with just a few words?
I was practically being coaxed into becoming an embryo!
They have absolutely no ambition!
Sure enough, this useless slime can't do without me!
Charles couldn't help but feel secretly proud.
Forget it. Let's hurry up and deduce the 'ultimate skill' to try and raise Rimuru's strength to another level!
In this way, there are practically no people in the world who can threaten Rimuru!
