Rimuru and his family members accounted for a large proportion of the town's population, and there was a serious labor shortage for a while. However, there were also a lot of "empty houses" left - when moving and housing those who had been blessed and temporarily comatose, for the sake of convenience, the houses were left alone.
Whether there is bedding inside, as long as the floor area is large enough, piles of monsters and monsters can be placed inside.
"Let's talk over there." Crownpis pointed at an empty house not far away.
They walked a few dozen meters and came to the house that had just been built not long ago and was probably unowned.
Zhuna raised her head and looked at the house, widened her eyes and said, "Is this the house of the tree elf Torene-sama?"
"Ah?" Crounpis didn't know how he knew this.
"That's what it says on it." Zhu Nai gestured to the wooden board hanging on the top of the door.
Crownpis said awkwardly: "I think it was the one who put it up without authorization. It is true that many races have gathered this time, and there will be a lot of monsters moving to the town. There is no new land and housing allocation plan yet.
Expand."
Ignoring the sign above, I opened the door and walked in, just in time to see Torene and Ultima on both sides of the wooden counter.
Torene looked like a store clerk, while Ultima was holding a disposable cup similar to that found in a milk tea shop and drinking the liquid inside with a straw.
There is also something like a bento on the table.
"Hello, you two. Did you have this thing before the war?" Clawnpis asked.
"Yeah, no, it's just an idea proposed by Rimuru, and all the materials are very insufficient." Ultima waved to the people who came through the door, and continued to answer, "Although the meeting hasn't started yet, I
I am very familiar with Rimuru’s philosophy. In the future, more and more races will be entertained, and trade with humans is just around the corner. Considering the distance from human countries and humans’ pursuit of the top three desires, this kind of thing only requires conditions
Once mature, it can be promoted quickly. It just so happened that Toreni wanted to open a store here for some reason, so I came here to try it out."
"That's it. I'm really sorry for what I said outside the door just now."
"No, no, after all, I didn't report to you, Master."
Toreni said with a smile: "Although there is no menu now, snacks, fresh fruits and juices are available. Do you want some?"
"Well, please." Crounpis was not polite.
She, Ultima, Benimaru, and Zhuna sat in a row along the high stools in front of the counter, enjoying the fresh fruit products brought out by the dryad.
After having a casual meal, Crounpis said to several members of her own tribe present: "This time, as my family members, you participated in the crusade against the Pig-Headed Demon King, but unlike your tribe, you did not receive the blessing of Rimuru's awakened demon king.
So I want to give you a little reward individually."
As she spoke, she pretended to reach into her sleeves and pull out three light blue balls of light in her hands.
It was a mass of experience points from a large number of demons. It had become pure experience points and had nothing to do with demons. It was only a semi-material existence that could improve the level. Crounpis wanted to do an experiment and deliberately took out at least enough
The amount that allows ghosts to evolve.
Originally, these experience points were ineffective against worlds or creatures that were not affected by the world-class item "Five Elements Conflict", but now that the rules in Crounpith's body have been integrated in this world, she wanted to try giving the experience points directly to
How others will improve.
The monsters in this world can evolve as a whole by pouring a large amount of magic elements into them. Obviously the planning rules are different from the method that Crounpis is already familiar with, so what will happen if the experience points that are originally used to steadily improve are given?
Neither party was polite.
"Ugh, what is this?" Benimaru was very surprised.
"It's different from getting magic elements and evolving. You can feel the injection from Master Crounpiss... as if it's directly... a part of your body." Shuna spoke very seriously, as if there were ambiguities in her words.
Ultima acted matter-of-factly, with her mouth closed and a kind smile, as if to say that it was not surprising that Cronpis would do this.
But soon their reactions became unified - tiredness struck, and they all fell asleep on the stage.
Crownpis glanced at Ultima's unfinished drink, then picked it up, bit the straw, and started sucking.
"The same is true for Rimuru. Apart from naming, will anyone who interferes with evolution in an abnormal way fall into a state of unconsciousness?" Cronpis asked Torene.
Picosi and Ultima received an evolutionary upgrade based on a part of Clawnpith's own body, which also caused them to temporarily lose consciousness.
"Not all of them are like this, but as far as I know, most of them will fall asleep during evolution." Torene said.
"In this way, wouldn't it be dangerous to reach the level of evolution in battle?"
"Evolution needs to respond to the 'Voice of the World'. No one would be stupid enough to do this in battle, right?"
"I think there might be some occasionally, like people from another world?"
"So that's the case. It would be excusable if they didn't know."
What Cronpis wants to say is that Rimuru in the original time and space made this mistake. However, the reality that has already deviated from the original work cannot be compared. I am afraid that a lot of subsequent plot information cannot be referenced.
"Then, let's talk about the future." Crownpis put his free hand on the counter and said to Torene, "With Rimuru's character, he probably won't punish the intruders - anyway, they
The root cause of the invasion is famine, which we cannot afford to pay for, but labor is definitely indispensable. If we take advantage of this situation and take in a large number of monsters to control, as the manager of the Jura Great Forest, who will be the better leader?"
This is very important. After all, the strongest monster here right now is not Rimuru. Just looking at the public level, everyone knows that Cronpis and Ultima are stronger.
Toreni kept a squinting smile and said: "Miss Ultima has already made it clear her position as a Servant. If Master Crounpis is willing to protect the Jura Forest, even if you are not familiar with everyone,
It is natural for the monster group named after Rimuru's superior demons and subordinates to do more, and become the leader. But it seems that Lord Crounpis has another base. Therefore, it is currently considered that Rimuru is recommended as the leader.
The leader of the Jura Forest, and the Jura Forest will become part of the sphere of influence of Lord Crowenpis. This is the most reasonable arrangement."
Crownpis didn't think too much and replied: "Ah... I think so too. For a tree elf who has not been in touch with the world for a long time, don't you think it's complicated?"
"Thanks to Miss Ultima, these have been arranged. Rimuru-sama will definitely not refuse, am I right?" Torene said still smiling.
