Geld- “I'm hungry…”
The newly reborn Orc Disaster mutters to himself. He looks at all of us. He feels the aura of Ranga and the Kijin, realising that they are all high-level monsters.
Geld- “… You will suffice for now…”
Ew please get the fuck away from me.
He opens his arms out wide and red balls of energy begin to appear in his hands.
It’s Gelmud’s Death March Dance. I'm a bit jealous, Death March Dance is an art, not a skill. Meaning it’s a technique. [Predator] can't copy techniques from the things it eats, only skills. So if I were to eat Gelmud, I wouldn’t have been able to use it.
Geld’s [Starved] skill can even take arts, so it’s better than [Predator] in that regard… of course, I would rather not be stricken by a constant endless hunger, so even if had a choice, I would not want that skill.
The energy balls shoot towards us and split into hundreds of smaller red bolts of energy. Far more than Gelmud could make. Furthermore, each one is augmented with his [Starved] Unique Skill and as a consequence, they all have the Rot effect added to it.
Think of it as hundreds of mini slimes with acidic effects all flying towards us at once.
Not that I give any fucks.
Rimuru- “Unlimited Meatbun Works!”
Hundreds of meat buns appear mid air behind me, matching the number of energy bolts, before flying towards them, meeting mid air.
*B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-BOOM!*
Loud explosions ring out from each collision. Death March Dance was rendered completely ineffective.
Do note that all of those meat buns were completely ordinary.
Geld looks at me, seemingly only noticing my existence now.
I'm not surprised really, he should only see me as a minion, a footsoldier. I'm still wearing Shizu’s Anti-Magic Mask, after all, my aura is completely hidden.
Geld- “… A fly…”
Rimuru- “You do realise this ‘fly’ just nullified your entire attack, right?”
Geld- “…”
Hmm… ever since he evolved, his body could hold all those powers he gained through his [Starved] skill and regained his intelligence as a consequence, but… I'm not sure if he was originally smart?
Geld begins to pay attention to me. Not because I talked back to him, nor did he suddenly realise what I threat I am, but because he noticed Harpe resting on my shoulder.
He fears no man… but this thing… it scares him…
His own aura begins to swell and form ghastly faces, each of them with a large “mouth”.
Geld- “Consume him… Chaos Eater!”
His aura shoots towards us as tendrils with a hungry mouth at the end of each one, looking to eat me. I stab the blade of Harpe into the ground and run clockwise around the Orc Disaster after writing a speed rune on my hand, not wanting to close the distance just yet.
I might as well have a little fun, you know?
Each of the tendrils impacts the ground behind me before dissipating as I continue running. Geld forms more Chaos Eater tendrils and begins to aim in front of me, causing me to dodge.
I lean back and slide forwards on my knees as a tendril shoots over me and continue running. Another one is heading towards me from the side, so I jump and perform a sideways flip as it shoots right under me. Another one heads right towards me but is more easily manageable as I just lean to the side, once again causing it to miss.
Not even 3 seconds have passed since he first began attacking me. I continue to dodge his attempts with a calm smile while he continues to form more Chaos Eater tendrils and send them towards me, hoping to consume me.
Suddenly, I stop running and skid to a halt, standing up straight. Immediately after, a chaos eater tendril impacts the ground in front of me from directly above me.
Geld- “Ghr…”
The Orc Disaster growls and walks towards me with heavy steps.
I don’t move from my spot as I raise my hand. Materialising around my wrist is a purple chain, linked all the way back to Harpe resting back with everyone else. I pull my hand forward and Harpe leaves the ground and flies right towards me, to which I catch flawlessly. After that, I just continue smiling at the approaching Orc Disaster while still resting Harpe on my shoulder.
Rimuru- “Ho, you’re approaching me? Instead of running away at the sight of the weapon in my hand, you’re coming right to me?”
Geld- “I can't eat you without getting closer!”
Rimuru- “Oh ho! Then come as close as you like…”
I also begin approaching the Orc Disaster. Once we get close enough, Geld immediately raises his weapon and smashes it down towards me.
I just raise my hand…

*WHOOM!*
… and catch the cleaver, immediately stopping it. The force travels through my body harmlessly into the ground, causing cracks to appear under me.
Geld- “Guh!?”
Rimuru- “… Heh.”
I just smirk dismissively like a certain pink-haired oni maid.
I've never really shown it, but my physical aspects are off the charts entirely. Regardless of how small I am, I am an Origin Slime. I hold the status of a Highest Tier Spirit, someone on the level of True Dragons.
Against a purely physical weapon like this with no enchantments of any kind nor even being made out of magisteel, just one hand is enough to stop it in its tracks even while being used by a newly born Demon Lord.
What’s that? Doesn’t that mean my speed should be extremely fast and I don’t need a speed rune? Well, with the speed rune I don’t have to run at full speed and could get by with just a light jog, so…
Yes, I couldn’t be fucked running at full speed. Sue me.
I want to break this cleaver, but I decide not to and leave it intact for now. Geld retracts his weapon, raises it above his head, and… immediately brings it back down again.
Why is he doing the exact same thing all over again? Are you SURE he has his intelligence back?
No, wait, he’s using 2 hands now.
*WHOOM!*
Not like that changed anything.
I swipe Harpe at Geld. Realising the danger, he retreats, but he didn’t avoid it entirely.
His right arm goes flying into the air.
Geld- “That weapon… is dangerous… but why…?”
He mutters to himself once again. After a few seconds, he realises something.
Geld- “Hmm? My arm… is not regenerating!?”
And that is what an immortal slaying effect can do.
Realising the danger, he looks towards me and Harpe again, finally recognizing us as a lethal threat…
But it’s a bit too late.
I teleport behind him, kneeling on his shoulders.
Rimuru- “Nothing personal kid…”
I say cheerfully before I swing Harpe downwards, decapitating the Orc Disaster and finishing off the arc.
