[The application for Unique Skill [Great Sage] has been accepted! Unique Skill [Great Sage] begins challenging evolution!]
[Failure... Challenging again... Failure... Challenging again... Failure...]
As Great Sage initiated hundreds of millions of failed challenges, Great Sage changed its method of challenging.
[Notification: Unique Skill [Great Sage] sacrifices two hundred thousand souls to obtain the blessing of Demon Lord Evolution and challenges evolution!]
As a golden light burst forth from the evolving spiritual sea, the Voice of the World also issued an announcement.
[Success! Unique Skill [Great Sage] has evolved into Ultimate Skill [Raphael]!]
As Great Sage evolved into Raphael, her voice also changed. Compared to the borrowed Voice of the World before, the current voice sounds more like a human girl's voice.
[Requesting evolution of [Gluttony], executed with ten thousand souls as sacrifice!]
[Success! Unique Skill [Gluttony] has evolved into Ultimate Skill [Beelzebuth, Lord of Gluttony]!]
Just as Raphael was about to end the evolution, she suddenly felt another large group of souls being sent in, and immediately chose to continue evolving.

[Notification: Demon Lord Evolution is fully complete!]
Zhong Chen watched as the seven-colored light emanating from the Slime gradually faded, knowing that the evolution must be nearing completion.
He just wondered what Rimuru would evolve into after a whopping 1.3 million souls were poured into him.
[Now, blessings will be bestowed upon the monsters in the lineage!]
Benimaru and the others suddenly felt a wave of drowsiness, but remembering that everything had been arranged, they didn't resist the sleepiness and collapsed to the ground.
Zhong Chen looked at the monsters lying on the ground and secretly chuckled to himself:
[I have to capture this moment; these are all future embarrassing memories!]
Saying that, he took out a camera, flew into the sky, and started taking pictures everywhere. Kagaya Ubuyashiki and the others could only shake their heads helplessly at the sight.
Shortly after Benimaru and the others fell, Zhong Chen felt that Rimuru had already transformed into a human form. With a flash, he returned to Rimuru's front.
He saw that the Rimuru in front of him had grown from a young girl into a mature woman, and his cute doll-like face had transformed into a stunningly charming one.
The only regrettable thing was that his figure was still of a size that could stop an airplane.
Rimuru slowly opened his eyes, and in his pupils, there wasn't the golden yellow Zhong Chen was familiar with, but red irises.
Zhong Chen understood that Raphael, the King of Wisdom, must be controlling Rimuru's body, while Rimuru's own will was likely still in a deep slumber.
"Notification! Master has completed Demon Lord Evolution and is currently in a deep slumber, expected to awaken in one hour!"
"During this period, the body is entrusted to Lord Chen!"
Hearing Raphael's words, Zhong Chen nodded and said:
"Hmm, leave it to me, don't worry!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Rimuru's body fell directly towards Zhong Chen, who quickly reached out and caught Rimuru's body.
"Heh-ho! I'm more comfortable holding you like this!"
Zhong Chen changed from holding Rimuru in front of him to a princess carry. Looking at the sleeping Rimuru, Zhong Chen instructed Kagaya Ubuyashiki:
"Except for Kanae and Shizue, you all go back first. Sakuya and I will take Rimuru back to the room to rest. I'll notify you when he wakes up!"
"Kanae and Shizue, you two stay with me until he wakes up!"
"Hmm, I also want to see Rimuru-san wake up safely!"
"We'll listen to A Chen. Besides, Lord Rimuru is so cute, I also hope to protect him always!"
Kanae and Shizue were very happy to hear Zhong Chen's words and quickly agreed.
"Alright, then we'll head back first!"
Kagaya Ubuyashiki and the others nodded upon hearing Zhong Chen's words and then slowly walked away.
Just as Zhong Chen turned to go inside, a voice came through:
"Esteemed Lord, may I, your humble servant, also enter the house to guard my Master?"
Hearing the voice, Zhong Chen suddenly remembered that there was still a demon he hadn't dealt with. He immediately turned his head to look at this demon, one of the pinnacles of the demon world, Primordial Black.
"I almost forgot about you. Alright, you can come in too, but you can only wait in the main hall!"
Hearing Zhong Chen's words, Primordial Black excitedly bowed and saluted:
"Ah! Thank you very much! To be able to guard my Master downstairs, I am already very satisfied!"
Zhong Chen couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth looking at Primordial Black in this state. Although he had known for a long time that this guy was an out-and-out Rimuru sycophant.
But seeing it with his own eyes still gave him a very absurd feeling.
It was like a person at the pinnacle of a country, bowing subserviently to someone who could only be considered moderately successful. This sense of déjà vu was truly... tsk tsk tsk.
"Alright, come in with me!"
After speaking, Zhong Chen, holding Rimuru, followed by Sakuya and the two other women, walked into the house, and Primordial Black, seeing this, also hurriedly followed... Just as the entire city went on alert and all the monsters fell into a coma, in the sky not far from the Great Jura Forest.
A pink figure was flying rapidly towards the city.
A naive smile appeared on the figure's face, and bursts of cute laughter echoed from its mouth:
"Wahahaha! I must go and see who exactly ruined Clayman's plan! Wahahaha!"
