"We're finally going home, we're finally going home, we're finally going home~."

"Good singing, Y/N." Your husband joked.

"I'm just excited that we're finally going home."

"Homesick, huh?"

"Yep. I'm totally homesick." You released a drastic sigh. "I'm just tired, you know?"

Rimuru nodded at your statement in understanding. "Totally."

"Speaking of.... When are we going to be home?"

"Just a moment." Rimuru answered as he tried starting up his teleportation ability to head home... But it seemed to not be working? "A magic field? What is it doing here?"

"What do you mean a magic field?!" You panicked.

Your husband was about to answer when Soei, one of Rimuru's subordinate, suddenly appeared.

"L-Lord... Lord Rimuru!" Soei looked as if he been through war. His face seemed to be as battered up with scratches and blood stains.

"O-Oh my gosh." You placed a hand over your mouth in worrisome. "W-What happened?"

"This is merely one of my clones, Queen Y/N. I am safe. There is no need to be concerned." Well that did dial down your worrying for him just a tiny bit. "More importantly... An enemy is near. More powerful than you can imagine. Please. You must escape." Soei's clone then disappeared from sight, leaving yourself dumbfounded by his statement.

"We're.. In danger?" You muttered in slight fear, worry would happen to everyone at Tempest. "My people.. The kids.. Zeldin.. Elith.. They're all in danger." You began breathing heavily.

"No, Y/N. We'll be fine. No need to panic." Rimuru tried his best in calming you down.

"Hm. I don't think we've met before." You and Rimuru froze in your spots at the sudden voice. You both look at the stranger that stood just a few feet from you two with furrowed eyebrows. "Though I'll be saying goodbye soon." Rimuru could only stare confused at the random woman, but still kept his guard up as he held you in his arms.

"Can I help you?" Your husband began walking you to a nearby tree to sit you down. "My name is Rimuru. I'm an adventurer. Perhaps you have me mixed with someone else." He went back to facing the woman.

"You're exactly who I'm looking for, leader of the nation of monsters. It turns out you country is quite the nuisance." She began walking toward the male. "So we decided to obliterate it. And that's why we can't have you going home right now." She paused just a few feet from him.

"Nice to meet you... Captain of the western saints church imperial guard, Hinata Sakaguchi."

"Hm.." She looked him up and down. "You're pretty sharp for a monster."

"And you're pretty annoying for a human being." Hinata looked beside the man to see you standing there rather.. Annoyed.

"And you. You're the queen of the elf society. Unfortunately, this have nothing to do with you."

"If it involves Tempest, then I'm pretty sure I'm much involved." You snapped, eyes squinted in annoyance at the woman.

"This is Y/N. My wife."

"Oh. I see. It seems you're just as involved as this monster is like you said." She pulled out her sword. "It seems I must kill you as well."

"I know that your doctrine teaches you to eliminate monsters. So why do you call me a monster?" Rimuru started querying.

"We have our private sources." Hinata answered the male's question.

"Private sources?" You asked.

"Shall we get started?" The short head woman clearly ignored your confusion statement.

"But I would've like to discuss with you first." You can clearly see the sweat trickling from your husband's forehead. He was nervous. Was she too dangerous? You did sense a strong aura from her, but it isn't so strong that it'd have you sweating bullets. Did he expected her to come? Have he known her someway, somehow? You'd have to ask him about her later on.

"Discuss? You and I?" Hinata smirked. "I'm not interested in the words of a monster." In a speed of light, she swang her sword at both you and Rimuru. With luck, you both were able to escape from the woman's blade.

What the heck did you guys just got yourselves into?
