The Next day-

I was sitting on my chair with the captains of my division sitting on the chairs around the table. We were currently in the meeting room inside my house.

- Captains, I have decided that our army will need a symbol and outfit. So, I have gathered you all here to discuss about this. Rosa, bring the flag.

Rosa entered the room and showed the flag rising it up.

- This will the our nation and army's flag

- It suits our country to have a Dragon as a flag.

- It looks cool.

- It will be a symbol of fear for our

enemies.

- It should be on top of the the highest building in our city.

Everybody gave their opinion on the flag of our nation. I didn't expect them to like it so much.

- Rosa, now show them the outfit that the members of our division will wear.

( A/N- Just imagine there to be the symbol of the dragon that I have shown above in the back of outfit.)

Two kijins entered the room wearing this outfit.

The outfit was white in color and had symbol of the dragon in the back.

- It looks nice!

- This outfit will suit the members of our divisions.

- I like it!!

- Ok, as for the outfit of the captains.

Hanma gives a signal to Rosa who brings two more kijin wearing a red and black outfit.

(A/N-Just imagine there to be the dragon symbol in the back of this outfit.)

- This red outfit will be the for the vice-captain of the divisions. The captains will have to choose the vice-captains of their divisions after this meeting.

(A/N- Just imagine there to be a Dragon symbol in the back of this outfit.)

The other kijin was wearing a black version of the red outfit with a white colored dragon on the back.

- This will be the outfit of the captains of the divisions.

- It looks awesome!!

- It will mean that death has come to our enemies when they see this outfit.

- Now, this is something that I like the most.

- Master, but isn't there an outfit for you and me?

Everybody looked at me.

- Yes, there is. I will be the Commander of our army and Ray will be the Vice- Commander of our army. So, the outfit we will be wearing is...

I exited the room for a few minutes and came back wearing my outfit.

The outfit had a white dragon at back of it and also on the left and right hand of the outfit.

I was wearing it in a very cool manner.

- Master, you look very cool with it!!!

- It suits you well, Master.

- This outfit will mean defeat for our enemies when they see this.

- Thanks, everyone.

I smiled while laughing at their comments on my outfit.

- Ok, so you will have to tell the members of your division to take these outfits from Rosa.

Everybody agreed and I ended the meeting.

I walked outside to get some fresh air.

- Ok, Now I am free. So, it's time to go to Tempest.

- Master, where are you going?

I looked back to see meliodas wearing the captain's outfit.

- Oh, Meliodas. It looks you like your outfit. I am going to my friend's village.

- Master, can I come with you? I am free today.

- Sure.

I informed Rauk that I would not be in the city for some days. So, I told him to tell the others to train until I come back. Then, I had an idea that instead of teleporting, I should walk to Tempest. So, right now we are walking to Tempest.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We reached Tempest after a few days after facing some monsters in the way which I absorbed.

I searched for Rimuru inside his village while using my Conceal skill so that no one could see us.

I heard the voices of people talking inside a house whom I recognized to be Rimuru. After hearing it, I disabled my Conceal skill and went through the window.

- Intruder!

Benimaru threw a punch at me which Meliodas blocked with his right hand. Shion came running inside the room and tried to punch me but Meliodas stopped it with his left hand.

- Hey, wait! We are not here for a fight.

Hakurou was about to attack me when he heard that Rimuru knew about me.

- Hanma? Is that you?

- Yes, it's me.

I answered with a smile.

- Rimuru-sama, do you know him?

Hakurou said as be sheathed his sword again.

- Yes, we met each other some weeks ago.

- My name is Hanma and his name is Meliodas.

I introduced myself and then pointed Meliodas while introducing him.

- I am sorry for attacking you.

Benimaru said as he did a slight bow.

- I am sorry too.

Shion also followed him too.

- It's Okay. I shouldn't have came through the window in the first place.

- You look good in that outfit and also why did you come here?

- Thanks for the compliment but... can't I even meet a friend?

I said as I brushed Rimuru's hair with my hands. Rimuru's face became red due to that. I could see Shion giving me a death glare at me while I could see Meliodas completely shocked about something.

- So what are you doing right now?

- Ah! I was going to eat Shion's cooking right now. Would you two like to eat too?

- No, I have eaten already.

I said as I started to look in the other direction.

- I would like to have some.

Meliodas said happily.

"RIP, Meliodas. I will find a successor for your division."

- Ok, I am bringing it.

Shion said happily.

After a few minutes, she brought the food and... It looked shit.

Meliodas looked so happy.

"Looks like he wants to smile for the last time before he dies."

I could see discomfort in Rimuru's face.

Gobta entered the room and then, Rimuru put the spoon inside Gobta's mouth and he was now unconscious.

"Meliodas, you are saved! You don't need a successor now!"

- Oh, dear.

- Shion.

- Y-Yes?!

- Next time, when you make food to serve to someone else, get Benimaru's approval first.

Rimuru then gave a look to Benimaru.

Then, a cloth fell on Gobta's face.

"He totally looks like a dead body.:

- So, what did you want to talk about?

Rimuru turned towards me and said.

- I came here to play.

I said with a smile.

- Okay. But first, I wanted to ask that where do you live, that you have to teleport here?

- I live in the Jura Forest.

- Jura Forest? But where?

- Underground.

"He lives underground?! "

Rimuru thought surprisingly.

"I should have asked him sooner... I didn't knew he was going through such difficulties...."

Rimuru thought sadly.

- You can stay here in Tempest.

- Uh, no because I am happy there and I can't stay in your house or something.

- You can stay in my house if you want..

Rimuru said while his face being red and not making eye contact.

- Uh.. I think you have misu-

- You can stay here forever if you want!

Shion said while crying.

- You don't have to go through such difficulties anymore!

- HEY! I LIVE IN A-

- We will treat like you are one of us.

Benimaru said with a sad face.

- Hey, listen to m-

I didn't get to complete my sentence as Kaijin entered the room.

- Rimuru-sama, me and Kurobe-san are going talk a little about blacksmithing. Would you like to join?

- Yes, I will join. Hanma, would you also join me?

- Of course.

It looks like I won't be able to tell them that I DONT LIVE IN A HOLE OR SOMETHING!
