----------
As the celebration ended, everyone returned to their usual work. For example...
"Three!"
"No."
"Did I say three?"
"I said, no!"
"Huh? You can't even afford a three, Kai-chan, what cards do you even have left in your hand?!"
Rimuru looked at Kaito, who couldn't even afford a three, with a shocked expression.
"Hehe, my apologies, just a small fry! My humble thanks, my humble thanks."
Kaito proudly revealed his last card.
"Kai-chan, you're on my side, what are you thanking for?!"
"A two, I'm out! Hahahaha, money, money!"
Milim, who had just finished her hand, excitedly held out both hands to Kaito and Rimuru.
"Damn it, if I lose any more, I'll be out of money!"
Rimuru, with a look of indignation, took a 50 Tempest Coin note from her Slime wallet and handed it to Milim.
"As if I still have money, my allowance is almost all gone!"
Kaito also took out his last 50 Tempest Coin note from his wallet with a long face.
"Hehe, a great harvest, a great harvest! Now I have money to buy snacks again!"
Milim, beaming with joy, took the money and carefully placed it in her small wallet. By the way, Milim's wallet was handmade by Sakuya, so she cherished it especially.
"Kai-chan, are you possessed by a god of misfortune? Why do we always lose when I'm on your team?"
"This..."
Kaito heard Rimuru's words, thought about it carefully, and felt that he must have been cursed. After all, he also lost everything at the pinball arcade, and when playing cards, he always ended up with a bunch of low cards.
"Hmm! That's right, I'm cursed."
[Host, is there a possibility that you're just simply bad?]
'What are you saying, what are you saying? How could I, a dignified Golden Immortal, not be able to win at poker?!'
[Host, whether you are a Golden Immortal or not has no necessary connection to you being bad at cards! Unless you cheat with magic power!]
'...'
Kaito, whose brutal truth was exposed by the System, indicated that he needed to be quiet.
"Kai-chan, still playing?"
Looking at Milim, whose face was full of innocent smiles, Kaito spoke weakly.
"No more, this month's allowance has all been lost to you. I'm going to the New World to seek comfort..."
As he finished speaking, a white Dimensional Gate appeared behind Kaito.
"Ah!!! Kai-chan, are you going already?"
"If not now, when?!"
With that, Kaito grabbed Rimuru with his left hand and Milim with his right, rushing into the Dimensional Gate. Sakuya, seeing this, hurried in after them.
Kuoh Town, Morning
"Is this the New World? It feels no different from the Jura-Tempest Federation!"
Rimuru looked at the surrounding modern buildings and asked with a surprised expression.
"There is a difference. The Jura-Tempest Federation is much more advanced than here."
Kaito heard Rimuru's words and said with a smile.
"Oh World, just wait for me, Demon Lord Milim, to conquer you! Hahahaha!"
"Milim, you really shouldn't say that. This world also has Demon Lords, you know."
Kaito thought of the four leaders of the devils in this world and said to Milim with a teasing expression.
"Really? This world actually has Demon Lords too, are they all as strong as Guy?"
Hearing Kaito's words, Milim's eyes instantly lit up, and she asked loudly.
"This world probably doesn't have anyone stronger than Guy."
Kaito thought for a moment and shook his head. Although this world later had some evil god invasions, it still happened within this universe. Guy, as a World Mediator, has at least the power to destroy a star, so he should be an invincible existence here.
"Ah! Are the Demon Lords here all so weak?"
"No, you're just too strong, alright? Even in the original world, besides Guy and Ramiris, didn't other Demon Lords also lose to you?"
"Mmm mmm... that seems to make some sense."
Hearing Kaito's words, Milim tilted her head, thought carefully, and then nodded in agreement.
"Alright, let's go. I'll take you two to find the female protagonist of this world."
With that, the figures of Kaito and the other three instantly disappeared from their spot, reappearing at the entrance of Kuoh Academy.
"This is it, let's go in."
Kaito led the three girls, ignoring the security guard at the entrance, and walked directly into the campus.
"Wow, how youthful! A school full of girls is truly captivating, isn't it?"
Kaito looked at the group of female students in uniforms, revealing their long legs, his face full of longing.
"Master, in Lashara's world, you have already seen such a scene."
Sakuya, who had been following behind Kaito, spoke directly when she heard his words.
"That's different, these are proper high school girls! The girls in that world were all like wolves and tigers, I was scared just looking at them!"
Kaito thought of the girls in the Seikishi world and shook his head in disagreement.
Rimuru, standing beside him, heard this and immediately showed a sinister expression, speaking in a deliberately low tone.
"Kai-chan, you like high school girls so much, be careful of the hatchet!"
"Oh Rimuru, you even know Makoto?"
"Hmph hmph, I'm a seasoned otaku, you know!"
"Hahaha, don't worry, I'm just looking. Rimuru, look, how beautiful this scenery is."
Kaito stated that he was a normal man. What normal man wouldn't take a second look at beautiful, youthful girls? But at most, it was just looking and flirting. If it came to actually making a move, he'd rather not. After all, these students really couldn't compare to Rimuru and the other two girls.
"Wow, it truly is a wonderful sight, Kai-chan, Good Job!"
Rimuru followed the direction of Kaito's finger and saw a group of girls in tennis outfits sweating on the court. Her eyes instantly lit up, staring intently, and she couldn't help but give Kaito a thumbs-up with her right hand.
"Kai-chan, Rimuru, where's the beautiful scenery? I want to see it too!"
"There!"
Milim followed their gaze and only saw a group of girls, not finding any beautiful scenery. She couldn't help but ask in confusion.
"Where's the beautiful scenery? Why can't I find it?!"
"Oh Milim, when you grow up, you'll naturally be able to see it."
Kaito explained to Milim with an expression that said she was still young and didn't understand anything.
"Grow up? But I'm already..."
Before Milim could finish speaking, a female voice suddenly came from behind the four.
"Hey! You there, why aren't you wearing school uniforms? Don't you know that's against school rules?"
Hearing the voice, Kaito and the others all turned around to look at its source. They saw a beautiful girl with long black hair and glasses looking at them seriously.
Kaito recognized the girl in front of him at a glance and murmured softly.
"Tsubaki Shinra, huh..."
