Honkai impact: Dimensional Herrscher

~Adam~

It's been 13 days since Rimuru ate Veldora

The Chat Room has been mostly silent as most people had a routine settled. Whether that was Rias training (probably) to get out of her engagement, Kazuma doing doing whatever an adventurer does (side quests), the spider eating monsters to get stronger or Monika doing Monika things in her artificial space classroom

These days have been uneventful. Often spending my time with Rimuru by killing and devouring all monsters we cross paths with in order to get their skills

As the days pass, I couldn't help but notice something.... Abnormal

My Magicules are increasing

And this is neither a Herscher core where I can potentially tap into infinite honkai energy nor is this chakra from the Naruto world where I can easily increase it with exercise

No... This is Magicules, their capacity depend on the soul

When someone gets a unique or ultimate skill, their Magicules permanently decrease. This is the normal case, and despite that, I got 4 unique skills without too much of a burden while my Magicules seems to slowly increase as time passes

...

This is not normal at all...

Great sage, can you do an analysis and compare my Magicules from before I got named by Veldora?

....

I see...

There may be a lot of reasons for why my Magicule are increasing

For one to normally traverse worlds and come into this world, a strong soul is a must

I already have a strong soul as this is my second life and I don't even know what my soul experienced to come into the honkai world without getting damaged

Maybe the the code I got from C.C also played a role...?

I don't know if it affects the soul, but for my Magicules to be increasing day by day ever so slowly, it might have a minor effect that I'm not aware of

That.... Or they are increasing because I am constantly devouring monsters with [Gluttony]

That's pretty cool actually, adding to that my mental faculties that are a lot more powerful with the help of Great Sage... It could be said that I'm now beyond human

Well I have a peak human body without any flaws, so much so it is called perfect. Except obvious things like increasing my strength, agility, endurance, reflexes and so on, it also allows me to go without food and water for an extended amount of time

This is what allowed me to travel with Rimuru these days without me being a burden

It also helped that Gluttony provides a monster's nutrients in addition to the skill without me needing to eat it myself

That is a blessing, I don't need to put those disgusting monsters in my mouth

But still...

"Rimuru-chan" I address the person that kept me company since I came to this world

"Hm? What's wrong Adam?" The slime asked as it looked at me in question

"We're getting closer and closer to the exit of this cave" I said to the slime with a smile

The slime froze for a moment, before muttering "So will you leave after we find the exit...?" Rimuru more likely stated rather than questioned with a sad tone

I chuckled at that, before taking the slime by surprise by lifting it up and putting it in my lap

"Unfortunately, I do. I also have people I care about and responsibilities in my own world" I said to Rimuru with a wry smile while I started petting it

This has become a habit at this point. I would pet the slime whenever it became sad or depressed

But I can't do anything about that. I have missed the honkai world, especially Kiana and Mei, even though I didn't know those two for a long time

"Is that so..." Rimuru once again said in melancholy

Well I can kinda understand him... Her? I don't know what gender it was in it's previous life at this point. He acts somewhat differently from the Rimuru I know from the anime and the light novel so his real gender is still a mystery

Still, the slime spent countless days alone. I was it's first friend so it is quite understantable that it would get attached to me

Even if the slime shallowed Veldora in it's stomach, it still had me. But now that it learned that I was also leaving, it's obvious that it will be quite sad and depressed

"Come on, slime-chan. How about taking a final bath together before I leave back to my own world?" I asked with a teasing tone to the small creature with a monstrous amount of Magicules in my lap

"A b-bath t-t-together?" The blue slime had a massive amount of pink in the position of it's cheeks

... That's cute...

I chuckled at it's flustered response "Of course! I want to be in perfect condition before going back" I smiled at the slime with amusement evident in my eyes

"B-but-!"

I interrupted the bashful slime as I took in my embrace before running to the nearest water source

....

...

.

"Ahh. That's the stuff" I exclaimed as I submerged myself in the cold waters of Veldora's cave

Of course, the cold didn't affect me that much. I've gotten used to it, and if I couldn't handle a little cold then how could I handle getting decapitated or getting stabbed through the heart?

"So, Rimuru...." I started of as I looked towards the blue and now crimson colored slime that tried to not stare at a certain lower part of my body

"Are you a man, or a woman?"

The slime completely froze at my question, never expecting me to ask something like this

We've known each other all this time and yet I haven't asked this question until now

"Well, y-you s-see..." Rimuru stuttered as it tried to find a good response

"Just be honest slime-chan, there's nothing to be embarrassed about" I said with a gentle tone, trying to calm down the slime

".... I'm a w-woman" The slime said with an embarrassed voice as it's whole body heated up with a pink color

Now it's my time to freeze

I...

I never thought Rimuru was actually a woman

I mean, yes. I considered the possibility, but that was mostly a joke

But it was another thing to hear it directly from his-her! mouth

Now everything suddenly makes more sense

Maybe this is an AU of tensura where Rimuru in his previous life was actually a girl?

But the only thing that currently preoccupies my thoughts is....

Rimuru is actually a waifu now?!

"E-eto.." An embarrassed voice snapped me out of my wild fantasies

Oh right, I didn't reply after she admitted that

"Wow, Rimuru. I actually thought that you were a man" I blurted the first thing that came to mind

"....!" She once again became red, either from anger or embarrassment

Rimuru suddenly bursted forth with speed I don't know she had and slapped me in the face with her body

My face flinched back at the force she exerted

"You idiot! While I'm currently a slime now, I'm also a girl, you know?!" The slime shouted in anger as she bounced off my face and dropped into my lap

Right where my manhood was located....

Man and slime stared at each in silence, one with a surprised and god smacked expression, the other with an embarrassed and red expression

"Waaahhh! My virginity got taken! I can't marry anymore!" Rimuru shouted like she wanted to bury herself somewhere

As the slime wiggled in embarrassment, unexpected sensations went into my spine

"Mhm! Don't move too much!" I shouted out in surprise at the unexpected feeling

The slime who had accidentally enveloped my male part froze

"Haah" I sighed, a bit resigned as I took the slime off my male reproductive organ and embraced it into my chest

"Come on, it okay. It was an accident" I gently patted the slime as I reassured it

"I lost my purity..." Rimuru's voice was as small as a mosquito's, and if not for my enhanced senses, I wouldn't have heard it

...

This is.... A difficult situation

I petted it once again to calm the slime down

"Don't worry Rimuru-chan. I will take responsibility!" I said in a righteous and serious voice

The slime perked up at that "Eh?!" She exclaimed as she looked at me with a surprised and bewildered expression

"What's with that expression? Don't we have the same surname? Aren't we technically married now?" I once again said with a confused voice, acting as what I said was completely normal

"B-but.. You thought I was a man! You only now just found out now that I'm a woman!" Rimuru tried to reason with me

But I wasn't changing my mind about this

"So? I was always suspicious about your gender. Besides, looking back at my interactions with you in the past, I should have realized sooner that you were a female" I explained my thoughts to the technically genderless slime

I looked down at the slime and tried to put on my most charming smile "Why, don't you want to get married with me?" I said in a whisper

Actually, even if the slime isn't as expressive as a human, I can figure out what the slime wants

"Or maybe....you don't like me..." I said with the saddest tone I could muster while putting a heartbroken expression

"NO- I mean YES-" Once Rimuru saw my sad expression and tone, she instantly blurted that out

"Oh! So you actually like me!" I put on a happy smile, as if my previous heartbroken expression was an illusion

Once Rimuru saw that, she started pouting "Stop teasing me..."

Well... As much as a slime could pout anyway

"Don't worry wifey, I won't tease you anymore" I once again teased the slime, contrary to my words

"D-don't call me w-wife! it's a embarrassing!" Rimuru shouted, a part of her otherwise blue body being pink

Actually, this is a very ambiguous situation...

A man(human) and a woman(slime), alone naked and bathing together, talking about love...

But having these kind of genuine interactions with someone is.... Nostalgic

In the honkai world, I was always tense about something, I was continuously thinking about what could go wrong. While I was older than I looked, I was still human, and as an intelligent being, these kind of negative emotions aren't healthy

So I'm glad that got power, I'm glad that I could unwind like these, even though this world is a lot more dangerous than the honkai world. But most importantly, I'm glad that I have a friend and companion in Rimuru

Tch. When did I become so sappy?

I looked towards the blushing slime in my embrace

I guess it doesn't matter. I don't want to be an emotionless, ruthless and power hungry villain. So I don't hate this change

AN:

Reading this chapter once again from a reader's perspective..... it feels cringe

It is very difficult to potray a female Rimuru's character correctly, I tried my best, but I still feel like something is missing

As for those interactions.... it is unreal for them to have such a close relationship so soon, yet it also feels right in a way because Rimuru was alone in dark cave. So I would imagine she would get attached to her first friend
