### 🌟 *Tensura: Multiversal Shenanigans*
**Chapter 16: Dragon, Assassin, Esper, Spy**
---
**\[Scene: The Park – Afternoon]**
**Anya:** *\[eyes sparkling]* "Your hair is pink! Your thoughts go 'BOOM' all the time! Are you a supervillain?!"
**Milim:** *\[grinning proudly]* "I'm not a villain! I'm a Demon Lord! That's, like, one level cooler."
**Anya (thinking):**
> "DEMON... LORD... She's gonna destroy Berlint!! Or maybe... she'll give me candy!"
**Ramiris:** *\[floating in circles]* "Are we doing introductions? I'm Ramiris! Also a Demon Lord. But cuter!"
**Anya:** "So many weird adults… I love this!"
**Loid:** *\[internally sweating]* "I don't sense hostility, but their presence is... unnatural. Could they be a new faction of agents? Magic users? Government experiments?"
**Yor (nervous):** "They seem so... friendly."
**Veldora:** *\[swooping in like a wind gust]* "Hoho! I am Veldora Tempest! The Storm Dragon! Worship me and I might spare your puny mortal realm!"
**Loid (internally):**
> "...A man introducing himself as a dragon in broad daylight. This is worse than any mission briefing I've ever had."

**\[Scene: Rimuru steps forward, smiling in business-casual attire.]**
**Rimuru:** "Sorry about all this. My friends can be a bit... intense. I'm Rimuru Tempest. We're travelers—just passing through, really."
**Loid:** *\[nodding slowly]* "Travelers... I see. Well, I'm Loid Forger. My wife, Yor, and our daughter, Anya."
**Rimuru (internally):**
> "Hmm... They're hiding something. That man has spy-level tension in his shoulders, and the woman... her grip strength is no joke. And that little girl—what was that mental pressure just now?"
**Ciel:**
> "The girl is an Esper. The man is a covert operative. The woman is a high-functioning assassin."
**Rimuru (thinking):**
> "...Oh. So *this* is a family of chaos."

**\[Scene: Café near the park – Everyone seated awkwardly]**
**Loid (thinking):**
> "If they're here on intelligence work, I need to gain their trust without blowing my cover."
**Yor (internally):**
> "I can't let Anya get involved with more strange people... but they seem sweet! And also... that dragon guy is oddly charismatic..."
**Anya (thinking):**
> "This is the best day ever. Magic girl, fairy, storm dragon, and squishy slime guy!"
**Ramiris:** "So this world is spy-based? Like secret agents and sneaky stuff?"
**Loid:** "I... work at a hospital. Nothing special."
**Rimuru (smiling knowingly):**
> "Right. Hospital. Of course."
**Milim:** "Can we come to your house?!"
**Yor (panicking):** "A-Ah! I don't mind!"
**Loid (internally):**
> "Yor, why—?! Now I have four overpowered anomalies coming to our home?! I didn't sign up for this kind of mission!"

### 🌀 Interlude: Ciel & Rimuru Mind Dialogue
**Ciel:**
> "You appear to be enjoying yourself. Shall I prepare contingency plans in case of conflict with this world's shadow forces?"
**Rimuru:**
> "Nah, let's keep it low-key. Besides, this world needs less chaos and more coffee."
**Ciel:**
> "Understood. Deploying 'social interaction' protocols."

**\[Scene: Forger Apartment – Later That Day]**
The Tensura group enters. Anya shows them around like it's a castle.
**Anya:** "This is the couch! This is the peanut jar! This is where we pretend to be normal!"
**Milim (throwing herself onto the couch):** "This place is cozy! I call dibs on nap rights!"
**Ramiris:** "Hey, no fair! I saw that pillow first!"
**Veldora:** "Where's the library? I must study the history of this land's intelligence operations!"
**Loid:** *\[exhausted]* "It's going to be a long week..."

**\[Scene: Closing Moments – Rimuru on the Balcony]**
**Rimuru (thinking):**
> "This family... they're hiding something. But they're good people. There's no threat here—only misunderstanding."
**Ciel:**
> "A fitting world for reflection. And chaos. And peanuts."
**Rimuru:** *\[chuckling]* "Yeah. That sums it up."
