New clothing style
Pov Dia,
Dia: "Rimuru, Sera, you should try wearing these hakamas with obis. It feels great inside."
(Author’s note: it’s not true, but I like this outfit.)
Rimuru: "I can’t, Dia-sama. It would be unworthy of a maid to wear anything but the maid outfit."
Dia: "I remind you that you are my wife, and I don’t want you to take the role of maid on our dates."
Rimuru: "I will try to make an effort."
At least she’ll try to make an effort.
Sera: "It doesn’t look very comfortable."
Dia: "It’s too bad because it’s comfortable, I think."
Right now we are changing to eat. Not wanting to wear my fighting outfit to eat, I asked Inari if she had any outfits for me. And now here I am wearing a hakama with a beautiful floral obi.
I think I’ll ask Inari to prepare me a ton of kimonos and obis. I’ll add some defensive runes to make them as strong as my combat outfit.
After changing, we were guided by a maid to the dining room. Seeing Rimuru's expression, I knew she intended to change their attire into maid outfits.
The meal was quite good, and it opened my eyes to all sorts of delicious dishes waiting for me to try.
Dia: "By the way, Kurama, why were you taken hostage by others? Yet I can see that you look strong."
Kurama's face darkened.
Kurama: "These assholes were well prepared. I don’t know how, but they managed to inject me with a poison that weakened me, and then they took me hostage. They knew Inari loved me so much that she would try to destroy the world to save me. They used this weakness to make her try to kill herself, and I know after that they would kill me, but Inari believed otherwise."
Dia:" So I had a good hypothesis but doing something like that is cowardly."
Kurama: "I can’t say it better."
I know the weak will seek cunning techniques to defeat their opponent, but doing something like that is unacceptable.
Dia: "Did you have any strategy?"
Kurama: "No, I didn’t. I thought about killing myself, but the problem is that Inari would have gone mad and tried to kill everyone. And there would be a chance that Lady Amaterasu would come and kill her because, after all, she is her representative."
Dia: "So it’s because of this fear of her dying that you didn’t want to do it."
Kurama: "Oh no, I was talking about the future. The only thing I didn’t want was for Inari to suffer."
Dia: "It is true that mental pain is more dangerous than physical pain."
Sera: "It depends on how the pain is inflicted because the pain that Scathach-sensei inflicted on us was as dangerous as the most awful mental pain in the world."
Dia: "You make a good point and a small caress on the head."
I approached her and caressed her head. I could see her eyes crinkle with pleasure.
Inari: "It would have been better if Sera were younger than you because then you could say a child is comforting someone older."
Dia: "Congratulations, you just killed the romantic vibe that was here. It's not easy to create one."
Kurama: "I apologize on her behalf. She's not very subtle with the atmosphere people are trying to create."
After that, we continued talking while imagining the most horrible tortures we could inflict on these humans.
