Rimuru's Rage

Ruberios-the sacred land of the Holy Empire of Lubelius-stood serene under the glow of the eternal night sky. The city, bathed in moonlight, was a testament to divine faith, its towering cathedrals and grand temples built in reverence to the Goddess Luminous. Streets paved with white stone stretched between gothic structures, their stained-glass windows depicting the miracles of their divine protector. Despite the ever-present night, the city was lively; priests and knights patrolled in disciplined formations, while devoted citizens carried out their rituals with quiet reverence.

Yet, amidst this peace, a storm brewed.

A woman, adorned in a silver breastplate , walked with heavy steps. Her piercing datk eyes blazed with fury, and her, dark hair swayed with each step. She was Hinata Sakaguchi-the strongest Holy Knight, the captain of the Imperial Guards, and the one who enforced divine justice with absolute conviction.

But today, she was not a knight of reason. She was a woman consumed by unrelenting rage.

"Damn that monster... I should've ended him before."

Each step she took across the stone pavement echoed her anger. A boiling storm of emotions raged in her heart as her fingers clenched tightly around the hilt of her sword.

"Not only did he kill Shizue... but now, he has done the unthinkable. He has enslaved luminous sama . A filthy monster, a mere Demon Lord... has dared to make Luminous sama into a servant!"

Her mind replayed the rumors she had received-Luminous, their goddess, the pillar of their faith, was now a mere slave to that slime. It was unthinkable. It was sacrilege.

"He dared to mock our faith. Mock our beliefs. Corrupt our very foundation. How many more will suffer because of him? That wretched demon must be erased. No, not just him-all of them."

Her rage twisted into something darker.

"His people are nothing but monsters. Filth. Disgusting abominations walking the earth. They follow that Demon Lord blindly, worshiping him like fools. If they choose to side with him, then they are no different. If they exist, they are a threat to humanity. They must be eradicated."

The peacefulness of Ruberios only served to anger her further. How long before this place fell into the hands of that demon?

No. She wouldn't allow it. She would never allow it.

Before she realized it, she had arrived at the grand temple-where the Ten Great Saints held their meetings. Without hesitation, she burst through the grand double doors with a force that nearly tore them off their hinges.

BANG!

The doors slammed open, the impact shaking the chamber.

Inside, the Ten Great Saints sat around an enormous marble table, deep in discussion-until Hinata's sudden entrance silenced them.

Saare, Glanda, Grigori, Leonard, Bacchus, Fritz, Litus, Armude, and Garde all turned their heads toward her, their expressions shifting from surprise to shock.

They had never seen Hinata like this.

Her aura burned with fury, and her expression was twisted in an anger so raw, so intense, that even seasoned warriors like Saare and Leonard instinctively tensed.

Leonard was the first to speak, concern in his tone. " lady Hinata, what is-"

"I am not here to talk," Hinata cut him off, her voice sharp and ice-cold. "I don't have time to waste on useless information. I want one thing."

She stepped forward, slamming her hand on the table.

"Tell me everything you know about this new Demon Lord."
