Chương 226: You can even bump into someone while visiting a brothel?

Puppet Kingdom - Gustav.

Kleiman also heard about Carrion's idea of inviting other demon lords to the banquet.

Somewhat exasperated, he glanced at Frey beside him and slapped her across the face in a fit of rage.

Although her pretty face was slapped red, Frey, who was under "control", still looked dazed. However, in reality, Frey was also furious inside!

To think that "Sky Queen" Frey, a dignified awakened demon king, would be slapped in the face by her own trash, Kleiman.

With his current strength, he could easily crush his opponent, but he had to endure humiliation for the sake of the bigger picture!

However, Frey remembered Kleiman's slap and vowed to get her revenge a hundredfold or a thousandfold when the time was right!

Frey is not Milim. Her forbearance has paid off. Pretending to be controlled these past few days has actually allowed her to uncover quite a few things.

For example, she recently discovered that the blonde elf who appeared with Clayman earlier seems to be active in the Kingdom of Inguracia.

Considering that the other party was the resurrected Demon King Kazarim, and that there might be even more dangerous beings after Kazarim, Frey was worried that sending her subordinates to investigate might alert the enemy.

Because she herself had to act, she couldn't go in person, so in the end she could only inform Yang Cheng of this information and ask him to go to the Kingdom of Ingurasia to investigate.

The Kingdom of Ingurasia is a small kingdom located in the vicinity of the Jura Forest, among the human kingdoms.

Because the current Monster Federation already has the ability to independently develop high-level potions and forge various equipment and weapons.

However, due to the abundance of monsters in the Jura Forest, food was ultimately scarce, so Rimuru considered obtaining resources from neighboring countries through trade.

Because of the "Ten Great Demon Kings," the humans of this world ultimately fear and resist demons.

However, Rimuru believed that trade was essential for the Jura Forest to flourish, so on the advice of three adventurers he met one day, Rimuru decided to first gain the trust of humans from the small kingdom of Ingrasia.

In his view, once a role model emerges and the Kingdom of Ingurasia truly benefits from it, other nations will gradually lower their guard against them.

In order to facilitate the cooperation, Rimuru, despite strong protests from Benimaru and Rigurd, ultimately only brought Shuna as his bodyguard when he arrived in the Kingdom of Ingrasia.

If it were Ranya and Gobuta, their monster characteristics would be obvious, and it would inevitably cause panic when they first entered the human kingdom.

Benimaru and Shion have a bit of a temper, and Rimuru was afraid they might flip the table at any moment, so he didn't dare bring them along.

Compared to them, Shuna is quite suitable, because she can perfectly disguise herself as a human, and she is also sweet-looking and quiet. Taking her along for negotiations would definitely make the other party feel good.

More importantly, although Zhu Cai, as the demon named by Yang Cheng, is respectful to him, she does not interfere too much in his private life.

Rimuru had heard from his adventurer friend Kabaru and his companions that the Kingdom of Ingrasia had brothels with many older women.

Furthermore, because it's set in a fantasy world, the brothels here not only have humans, but also elf ladies and beast girls— Rimuru, as a genderless slime, may be considered "nonsense" now, but he still has the heart of an old man!

If physical needs can't be met, surely fulfilling emotional needs is possible!

Moreover, Rimuru had heard from his brother Yang Cheng that as monsters evolve, their own race also transforms and improves. What if one day his bull comes back?

This is all a rehearsal. Rimuru is scouting the shops first, so that when he's on a killing spree later, a lot of information will naturally come in handy.

"Lord Rimuru, we've just arrived in the Kingdom of Ingrasia. Is it really a good idea to come to a place like this instead of going to the 'Free Association' that Ellen mentioned?"

Although Shuna is a monster who has lived in the Jura Forest for a long time, that doesn't mean she is completely devoid of common sense.

She could immediately tell that a place with strange ambient lighting at the entrance was a so-called "brothel."

"Ahem, Zhu Cai, you don't understand, do you? Just like in the movies, places like this are often the easiest to get information because they are a mixed bag."

Before we negotiate with the leaders of the Kingdom of Ingurasia, shouldn't we first find out about their preferences and personalities? This would be more beneficial to our negotiations.

"Are we here for leisure? No, we're here entirely for work."

Hearing Rimuru's righteous and stern explanation, Shuna chose to believe him without much doubt.

"I see. So that's why Lord Rimuru, who has no gender, would come to a place like this."

Miss Shuna's seemingly unintentional words of praise dealt a devastating blow to Rimuru's heart!

"Chijia, listen to me. The reason I frequent places like this now is entirely to gather intelligence, just like in the movies—" Rimuru and Shuna, who had just entered, soon saw Yosei drinking in the lobby of the brothel, surrounded by an elf and a beastman.

Yang Cheng was clearly quite drunk, his head resting on the large thunderbolt of an elven older sister, which seemed to be giving Chi Jia quite a headache.

Chijia naturally didn't believe Yang Cheng's claim that he wanted to gather intelligence.

Since entering the store, Yang Cheng has only obtained information about the measurements of these elven and orc women; there seems to be no other information at all.

However, Chijia had already inquired and found that this upscale pub seemed to only offer drinking companionship services and no other value-added services, so Chijia didn't bother to say anything more.

Anyway, as long as Lord Yangcheng doesn't leave behind any offspring indiscriminately and create a bunch of "young masters" in the future, Chijia, as Lord Yangcheng's personal bodyguard, is quite tolerant in other aspects.

Rimuru and Shuna, who had just entered the store, immediately recognized Yosei from the familiar voice and lines.

"Lord Yangcheng, and Mother!"

"Brother Yang Cheng, you're here too!"

Upon hearing the two exclamations, Yang Cheng, who had been immersed in the pleasures of love, instantly sobered up.

Damn it, if you ask what the most embarrassing thing in the world is, it's undoubtedly sneaking off to get a massage and running into someone you know there.

And without a doubt, when Yang Cheng sees Rimuru and Shuna right now, he feels like he wants to die on the spot!

The world is so big, how could you possibly bump into someone while visiting a brothel?!
