After eating breakfast, Kurumi rushed straight to the Ninth Floor of Nazarick.
Draco was in his study handling documents when Kurumi suddenly burst in, giving him a start.
"What's wrong, why such a rush..."
Draco looked up in confusion, only to see Kurumi pouncing toward him with a face full of excitement.
"Master! I'm going on an adventure!"
"Hmm?"
Draco was stunned for a moment, then seemed to understand something and smiled. "Alright then, I wish you a pleasant journey!"
"Yup! I will! Don't miss me!"
After saying that, Kurumi hopped and skipped out like a rabbit, without a hint of lingering attachment.
Draco shook his head with a chuckle and then lowered his head to continue working.
Beside him, Albedo couldn't help but wonder, "Master, aren't you worried?"
"Worried? Worried that she'll run into danger?"
"Yes."
"There's no need to worry; that girl has a very lucky life."
Draco responded nonchalantly, clearly not taking it to heart.
And the source of Draco's calm confidence was his Ultimate Skill, "King of Summoning."
Compared to the effects of the original skill "Summoner," several more effects were added after the evolution.
"Absolute Summon": Can summon any contracted summon, regardless of life or death, regardless of time, regardless of location, with no limit on the number of uses!
In other words, even if Kurumi were to die outside, her star soul body shattered and her Memory Particles dissipated, Draco could completely re-summon everything about her as long as he wished.
The same was true for the NPCs of Nazarick.
However, they could be resurrected using gold coins, so this skill wasn't particularly useful for them.
But for executives like Benimaru and Shuna, as well as the army of two hundred thousand, this was of immense significance.
After signing an Equality Contract with Draco, they would be immortal unless Draco himself died.
To be honest, this skill was truly somewhat broken.
The authority of the "King of Summoning" definitely exceeded most Ultimate Skills; while it might not reach a level of being powerful enough to destroy the world like Milim's "Wrathful King," it was absolutely a terrifying existence.
Thus, with such a heaven-defying skill in hand, there was naturally no need to worry about Kurumi's safety... After leaving Nazarick, Kurumi impatiently found Ramiris.
"I've already said goodbye to Master; we can set off now."
The news of Kurumi's departure reached the ears of Shuna, Shion, and the others.
Everyone rushed to the city gate to see her off.
"You guys don't need to come see me off~ It'll be fine~"
Seeing the group of people before her, Kurumi was slightly moved.
"Speaking of which, are you leaving without taking anything with you?"
Shuna looked at the empty-handed Kurumi and couldn't help but remind her.
"Eh?"
Kurumi scratched her head. "Do I need to bring anything to go on an adventure?"
Seeing Kurumi's clueless expression, everyone was momentarily speechless, feeling as if she would come back crying in a few days.
Is this girl really not here just to be funny?
Seeing the dark lines on everyone's faces, Kurumi found it strange. "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Shuna sighed, wondering how Lord Draco could feel at ease letting such a dazed girl go out alone.
Left with no choice, they prepared various foods, clothes, and gold coins for her.
"I'm not hungry."
Seeing the mountain of food, Kurumi frowned.
Kurumi rubbed her round belly and suddenly let out a loud burp.
Seeing this, everyone felt even more helpless.
"You'll get hungry eventually..."
After putting everything into a high-grade magic item storage ring, Shuna solemnly placed it in Kurumi's hand.
"Take care, Kurumi!"
"You must come back alive!"
"Whatever you do, don't let anyone trick you!"
"Whatever you do, don't let anyone trick you!"
"Whatever you do..."
Everyone kept nagging her with advice.
"Mm!"
Hearing the caring words around her, Kurumi's heart warmed, and she nodded vigorously.
Just then, a green magic circle suddenly lit up, and Treyni stepped out from it.
She approached Ramiris and said apologetically.
"I'm sorry, Lady Ramiris!"
"I cannot stay by your side for now."
Ever since Ramiris fell from being the Elf Queen to the Pixie Queen, some spirits fell into fairies of various attributes, and Treyni, who was originally a pixie, was also affected.
Treyni, now a Treant, was in an energy-body state and couldn't leave her original body, the Spirit Tree, for too long.
Treyni really wanted to follow Ramiris back, but she simply couldn't.
If Rimuru could become an Awakened Demon Lord, with the help of Teacher Xia, he could reshape Treyni's Holy Demonic Core and use her original body to create a new physical form, allowing her to move freely.
But because of Draco's appearance, the two met early; unfortunately, Rimuru hadn't grown enough yet.
Draco didn't have any good solutions for this either.
He could only hope Rimuru would grow stronger quickly.
Ramiris waved her hand, signaling Treyni not to worry.
"It's fine. Knowing you're alive is already enough. As for everything else, let's take it slow."
Treyni nodded helplessly and finally took her leave.
"Well then, everyone, we're heading off!"
With that, Kurumi took Ramiris and set off toward the Republic of Ulgrasia in the southwest.
And so, a legendary tale about Kurumi began!
