As I opened my eyes, I realized that the seal I put into my main body finally broke off… Although I did not gain any Skill whatsoever, I felt that the proficiency to learn such Skills increased by a vast amount, perhaps doing this two or three more times could yield the Skills, so I quickly sealed my main body again, this time only sealing a small part of the main soul, such as around 20% of it, so it can still yield good proficiency.

Anyway, today I woke up quite happily, the last team that was sent toward the dungeons to train a few months ago was finally coming back, and I could not help but feel excited about it.

Not much after waking up and preparing breakfast, the Slime Family made their way into the Empire, they were all incredibly surprised over the enormous changes that had undergone since they left, the many new people going in and out glanced at them with surprise as they released sparkling auras, they had grown strong, extraordinarily strong. At least all of them were individually at the Rank 13 of the Mortal Realm, and if they were to be fused, they would easily reach Rank 15 or even 16.

The moment I greeted them when they entered the castle, all of them jumped towards me and Rimuru who was at my side.

"Ah, everyone, it has been so long!" said Rimuru with a happy smile, her appearance had slightly changed since the last time the girls saw her due to her evolution, and the beautiful multicolored crown atop her head made them in a dazzle, it seems that Rimuru had a natural charm towards all Slimes.

"It has been months, we all missed you girls," I said with a gentle smile, the girls glanced at me as they began to admire the Aura I exuded.

"K-Kireina-sama! Rimuru-san!" they cried, jumping towards us as if they were a sea made out of colors.

They began to entangle us with their slimy hugs, crying over how much they missed us.

"If you girls missed us so much you could have come earlier, guu!" said Rimuru.

"Aahh… Well, we had a nice time there!" said a red-colored slime girl with demon-like horns and a tomboyish voice, Benimaru.

"We are sorry for not having participated when our strength might have been needed, Kireina-sama…" apologized Shion, she had a similar appearance to Benimaru, but her complexion was smaller and more feminine.

"There was just too much to do there! We beat way too many Dungeon Bosses! But we got pretty strong too!" said a blue-colored slime girl with several traits similar to those seen on wolf beast-kin, her long and fluffy blue tail waved energetically as she licked my face with her tongue, Ranga.

"It was rather hard to keep them all in check, Master, but I did my best!" said pink-colored slime girl with a smaller complexion and long twin tails, Milim. She was the second named Slime that I ever had and held an important position in the Slime Family as their leader.

"W-We did a lot, though we were fused this whole time, so I am quite tired… I want to sleep for a while…" muttered a shy, white-colored slime girl with a very adorable tone of voice, she had small, white-colored feathered wings below her and her complexion was perhaps as small or even smaller than Milim, she was Luminous, the strongest Healer of the Slime Family.

"I did my best to protect everyone with my armor… It had become very sturdy since back then, Master! Do you want to wear me?" asked a purple-colored slime girl that wore a full set of black-colored armor decorated with several spikes and skull-like decorations, she was Aloysius, the youngest of the girls of the Slime Family.

"You all did excellent girls… but let me go… please?" I asked.

"We don't wanna!"

"We want to hug Master for the entire day!"

"Hug! Hug!"

"Rimuru-chan, where is little Ailine? We want to meet her!"

"Oh! Ailine-chan is still sleeping, it's still quite early…? but you can meet her at breakfast! Let's go!" said Rimuru, freeing herself from the girls as I did as well, the six of them followed ups from behind as they greeted and meet with many of my wives and the children that had woken up.

"Uwah, Kireina-sama, your entire family is so big!"

"It had grown a lot!"

"Hm?! Nereid and Kjata finally got into Master's bed before us!"

"No way!"

"Eh? What do you mean 'before you'?!" asked Nereid in an angry tone.

"It was an unforgivable night…" said Kjata with a slight blush.

"H-Hey, don't go talking about that in the middle of breakfast…" I said.

"Haaah~! Kireina-sama's cooking has gotten so good!"

"And Chokumotsu and Kaen too!"

"Hmm~ I love this dragon meat!"

"I've never eaten such as tasty egg, what is it?"

"It is… an egg, a thunder dragon egg… I made them," said Goghesdum shyly.

"Oh, are these even more cute girls?! Just how many cute girls do you have around you, Kireina-sama?!" asked Odanth as she waved her red-scaled tail around.

"W-Will they become maids too?" wondered Yvnei with a shy tone.

"That would be… interesting, our work would be certainly lessened…" said Nannet as she accommodated her glasses.

"I don't want to be a maid anymore…" muttered Athos.

"It's not so bad~!" said Yerze.

"So they would be like Slime Maids?" asked Ailine while eating pudding.

As they heard her sudden idea, all of the girls within the Slime Family happily agreed.

"Slime Maids!"

"Yes!"

"That's a perfect idea, awoo!"

"I want to wear a cute maid dress!"

"W-Wouldn't that be a bit too embarrassing…?"

"I wonder if I can turn my armor into a maid dress. Maybe wearing one below?"

"So we will have even more maids now? There are currently three squadrons of them! Arachne Maids, Dragon Maids, and now… Slime Maids!" said Rimuru.

"Rimuru-chan has to join too!"

"And Ailine-chan!"

"Anyone that is a Slime!"

The girls within the Slime Family quickly added Rimuru and Ailine into the mix… this was all quite crazy, but I just let them be, it was not as if they were annoying anyone anyways.

Truhan and Celica alongside all of the wolves also greeted the girls, they were all allies since the beginning, so meeting each other after having grown so strong made them all wonder how strong each other could be.

Not long after, another team finally came back here, the Wyvern Overlord alongside all of his children, alongside the Monkeys and Meiji's Spirits.

"Oh, father, it has been a while!" said Brontes, running towards Meiji as she lifted the small monkey beastmen, Meiji could not help but release a chuckle.

"Brontes-chan, you've also grown a lot and had become quite strong… A lot, actually! You have already surpassed even your siblings…! Also, you don't have to call me father if you don't want to…" said Meiji with a surprised expression, after he sensed Brontes' power, he couldn't help but fall into awe.

"No, you're my father in this new life… Ah, although she was born when you were still around, you never got to see her properly… here's your granddaughter. Vudia, come see your grandpa!" said Brontes, as Vudia quickly flew towards us.

"Hm?! Oh! Is that really Grandpa Meiji?! Wasn't he a monkey though?" asked Vudia.

"Oh… So you are Vudia-chan…! Such an amazing and cute little girl! You are truly a half spirit! Amazing! I never thought something like this could happen!" said Meiji.

"Hehe, mommy always says that I am pretty amazing!" chuckled Vudia.

The large group of spirits all flew around us, all of them were formerly summoned at the same time as Brontes, so they were like her siblings, each one was of a different attribute, and had evolved a few times within their dungeon exploration, becoming strong beings. Some even managed to take on the shape of a demi-human, and all of them were more beautiful than the other…

"Ah, Brontes nee-sama, your daughter is so big now!" said a beautiful fairy girl with a similar appearance than Nereid, but having a gentler-looking and even more motherly appearance, Nymph, the Water Attribute Spirit.

"Amazing! So strong! We could go flying around some time, Vudia-chan!" said another fairy with green-colored wings and emerald hair that seemed to be entirely made out of emerald winds, she was Sylphid, the Wind Attribute Spirit.

"Nee-sama, we grew strong too!" said a large dragon-kin boy, who surpassed three meters of height and had his body covered in hard, rock-like scales. His eyes were golden-colored, and he had a very innocent and childish personality, despite his height and intimidating presence, he was Pygmy, the Earth Attribute Spirit who was a dragon but managed to change into a demi-human form.

"We almost died several times… It was not that fun, to be honest, but the strength is appreciated! Gahaha!" said a giant salamander man of similar size to Pygmy, his scales were red-colored, and his claws were enormous, his body was packed with hard muscles, he was Vulcanus, the Fire Attribute Spirit. Similar to Pygmy, he had acquired a demi-human form.

"Ah, so that's little Vudia?! So, cute! Haah~ I want to have a baby too now! A little bear, fufu!" said a beautiful, almost two meters tall bear-type bear-kin woman with short brown hair, chocolate-colored skin, and emerald eyes, she had several leaves growing around her body that seemed to cover her enormous b.r.e.a.s.ts and also part of her fur. Her arms and legs starting from the elbows and knees respectively were covered in fur and had strong claws and paws like those of a grisly bear, Artio, she was the Nature Attribute Spirit, who used to be a large bear but seemed to get a demi-human form.

"She's adorable, chuupi!" said a cute harpy girl with long clear blue fathers and ice armor around her beautiful pale white body, her appearance was like that of a young woman in her early twenties, with long hair and several ice decorations around her body, resembling a harpy ice princess. She was Boreas, the Ice Attribute Spirit that used to be a giant bird with the power to manipulate ice, similar to previous cases, she managed to acquire a demi-human form after evolving enough.

"Very cute," said a dazzling mature woman with pale white skin, long blonde hair, and shining golden eyes that released such light that it might blind some people, this is why she would often keep her eyes shut… she was wearing a very tight white dress, that tightly grabbed into her curves and very generous b.r.e.a.s.ts, it was Aether, the Light Attribute Spirit. She had taken the appearance of a beautiful milf through her demi-human form, which surprised me a bit, as she used to not have any form at all, only being made entirely out of blinding light.

"Indeed, we should bring her to our adventures," said another doting mother-like woman, that seemed to be the complete opposite of Aether, her skin was pale white as well, but her pitch-black hair was short, reaching only her shoulders. She had two horns at each side of her head, and two beautiful and bewitching crimson eyes, with a larger one at the middle of her forehead, she wore a tight black dress, which covered her womanly assets. This was Hypnos, the Darkness Attribute Magic Spirit, who, similarly to Aether, had taken into a surprising demi-human form despite her previous appearance.

"That battle was very arduous… But we did it… Now, we can rest for a bit, Kiriena-sama…" muttered a large wyvern, with red-colored scales and a majestic appearance, he was the Wyvern Overlord who had come back with his family.

"It was indeed an enriching experience, we eve evolved another time there…" said Abellona, a wyvern of a similar appearance to his father.

"Man, we had such a good time though!" said Aine.

"Yeah! But I want to sleep…" said Adena.

Aine and Adena were twins, whose appearance was similar to Abellona, but they possessed more black-colored scales and smaller bodies.

"Indeed, it was very a long trip, but the strength we amassed was worth it!" said Titus, a muscular, black-scaled wyvern.

"I heard that the Wyvern Gods that blessed me and Titus had joined your allies, Kireina-sama?" asked Eshne, a smaller, green-scaled wyvern.

"That's right, Merveim and Hodhyl would gladly meet with all of you," I said with a smile.

All of the Wyverns seemed to have become excited after hearing such words from my mouth, they seemed to be very devout believers, despite what I had thought before.

Aside from Meiji, all of the Monkeys came as well, each one greeted everyone, specially Truhan, who all of them wanted to fight to test their strength. Everyone had gone through a pretty hard fight in the last boss of the underground dungeon, and there were a few mysterious down below that the Wyvern Overlord told me that he was not capable of deciphering completely.

This only gave me more incentive to go take a look down there and find the mysteries myself, while also taking the opportunity of conquering the dungeon…

But I will most likely go complete the smaller dungeons at Ollathir's territory beforehand, they are small and easy to conquer, the biggest one only having up to three Dungeon Bosses, with most of them only having one on the last floor.

The Slime Family confirmed to me that most of them had Dungeon Cores, although very small, but that was enough for me to go and snatch them.

I wonder what kind of Gods made such little dungeons just to abandon them… These dungeons can't be 'natural dungeons', as they possess Dungeon Cores, an artificially made item to create Dungeons…

Hmm, anyways, I will think about that tomorrow. Today I had a large feast within all of my Empire to celebrate the comeback of my allies.
