I am the emperor of Mengwang

Chapter 692: The Great Magician Gadra; The Bond between Gadra and Aardman

After learning that war was going to break out with the Empire, Rimuru also began to investigate all the information about the Empire.

Among them is the information about the empire's "great magician" Gadra.

A strange man who knows the inner workings of the empire.

His most glorious achievement was surviving a battle with the calamity-level 'Storm Dragon' Veludera, for which he was hailed as a 'hero' by the world.

Thinking of this, Rimuru subconsciously glanced at Veldora who was still reading the comic book with a silly smile on his face.

Forget it! It's too much to watch.

If the world knew that the 'evil dragon' Veldora, who brought disaster to the world, had become a useless dragon who ate, drank, slept, and played again every day, they would probably be really shocked!

You should know that Veldora's record is still very brilliant. For example, thousands of years ago, he blew away the Night Rose Palace of the "Night Demon Queen" Luminas in one breath, and hundreds of years ago, he destroyed an empire's bridgehead with a population of 100,000 in a rage.

Forget it! A hero never talks about his past achievements. They are all in the past.

But at this point in time, the empire's "great magician" comes to visit me, the leader of an enemy country. Hmm, this is very suspicious!

Rimuru didn't know whether he should accept this great magician who survived the battle of 'Storm Dragon' Veldora!

After all, she couldn't figure out the purpose of this 'great magician'! ?

At this time, Shion, who came with Diablo to report, gave Rimuru a direct warning.

“This is too suspicious! Lord Rimuru. There is no need for Lord Rimuru to meet such a strange person at such a sensitive time!”

Hearing Shion's advice, Rimuru's eyes flashed with surprise. Has Shion become so cultured now?! What a great improvement!

"Yes. I also agree with Lord Shion's proposal. There is no need to listen to the advice of a mere Larsen. Even I don't need to listen to his advice."

Diablo's words were full of disdain for Larsen. After all, you are just a puppet, and you dare to give advice to Lord Rimuru? Are you qualified? ! How many keys do you need! ?

After hearing Shion and Diablo’s stern refusal, Rimuru pondered for a moment.

To be honest, visiting her at this time obviously shows bad intentions and ulterior motives!

But Rimuru also wanted to meet this "great magician" from the empire. After all, according to the information Rimuru obtained, this "great magician" had a very high status in the empire!

Maybe we can learn some information about the empire from him!

It can be said that this matter has risks but also benefits.

After considering for a moment, Rimuru finally decided... "No see"!

This is so suspicious! It's obvious that he has bad intentions!

Moreover, now that war with the Empire is imminent, it is better not to do these risky things. If something unexpected happens, it will be too late to regret it.

Now Rimuru is pursuing only one word...

"'stable'"!

Seek stability within stability and keep everything under your control.

"Indeed. It's too suspicious, so..."

Just when Rimuru was about to refuse the other party's visit, Aardman, who was sitting next to him, said something hesitantly.

"Um... Rimuru-sama, I was wondering, that man named Gadra that Diablo-sama mentioned just now, I was wondering, could he be my friend from the past?"

Aardman's words were full of hesitation but also contained a hint of confirmation.

After these words were spoken, many people in the audience turned their eyes to Aardman.

As if to say, when did you have friends in the Empire? What? Are you planning to surrender to the enemy when the war starts?

But Rimuru started to think. According to Aardman's previous description, he himself had become a so-called 'Undead' for thousands of years. However, according to the information he obtained, this 'great magician' was a genuine 'human'!

It is impossible for him to be like Granbell, who received the gift of Luminas, the true ancestor of vampires, the Night Demon Queen, so how could he live for thousands of years? !

Perhaps he saw Rimuru's doubts, so Adalman sold the information about his old friend without hesitation.

"Lord Rimuru, if I am not mistaken, my old friend has a secret technique called 'Reincarnation' that can extend his life."

"Besides, Gadela and I are close friends after all. After all, it was Gadela who saved me from the Seven Stars."

The relationship between Gadela and Aardman can be described as that of "close friends" and "brothers", to the point where they would even back each other up.

Just like 'Hongyun' and 'Zhenyuanzi' in the ancient times, they are truly good friends who share weal and woe and are friends for life and death.

After hearing Aardman's description, Rimuru looked at Aardman with surprise in his eyes. I didn't expect you to have such connections. That's not easy!

But on second thought, with Adalman, Gadra's good friend, here, it would be okay to meet this "great magician" from the empire.

Maybe I can use the relationship with Aardman to get some information about the empire from him.

But Rimuru still underestimated the bond between Gadra and Adalman. They were close friends whom he could trust his life with!

After the imperial meeting of the 'Empire' ended, Gadra immediately ordered several of his disciples to go to the Demon Federation to collect intelligence.

He went directly to the country where another disciple of his was, that is, the "Demon" Larsen who now lived in the Kingdom of Falmes, to learn about Rimuru.

There is no way! Morax is too mysterious in the eyes of the world, and those who are related to him are not the ones that ordinary people can mess with.

For example: 'Dark Emperor' Guy, 'Destruction Tyrant' Milim, 'Storm Dragon' Veldora, 'Rock Dragon King' Rota, 'Demon King' Rimuru, etc.

Or else it could be these monsters from the Demonic Federation.

In other countries, there is even less information about Mo Li.

So Gadela had no choice but to collect information about Rimuru.

But it would be fine if he didn't collect them. The more he collected them, the more Gardella felt that Rimuru was unfathomable. (Another imaginary one)

Then he tore up his original plan to attack the western countries and revised it.

In fact, Gadela didn't care at all whether the empire would suffer losses, or he wouldn't care too much even if the empire was destroyed.

Even Gadela knew about Yuuki's plan to usurp the throne, and even collaborated with him to form a unified front.

And the reason why he joined the empire was that he served the empire for a thousand years.

Collect talents from other worlds, promote the technological development of the empire, and build various powerful armies.

The only goal is to destroy the 'Cult of Luminas'.

This has been his long-cherished wish for thousands of years, or even his entire life!

Thousands of years ago, the Seven Stars of the 'Cult of Luminas' set a trap, killed his close friend 'Adamant', and turned the noble and resolute paladin into an ugly and corrupt undead.

This was simply the greatest insult to his best friend.

This is also something that Gadela, the only close friend of 'Aardman', will never be able to forgive in his life!

Over the years, Gadela has been tormented by why he failed to save his best friend.

He still cannot forget the past years he spent with his best friend, that noble and resolute paladin.

Over the long years, the endless obsession turned into hatred towards the 'Seven Stars' and even the entire 'Cult of Luminas'.

This hatred drives him to seek revenge!

For the sake of his best friend, he wanted to bury those abominable people with his own hands and destroy that sinful sect.

Even if it means risking my life and everything I have!
