The group then boarded a carriage and began their journey to the Federal State of Juraternpester.
Since Ximen Yan and his group made no attempt to hide, they were quickly discovered by Rimuru's subordinates.
After discovering that Ximen Yan and his group were not acquaintances, the Great Demon Clan's Cangying, along with the Dragonman Cang Hua, blocked the carriage.
Of course, many others were hidden in the woods on either side of the carriage.
Ximen Yan decisively stopped the Flaming Horse.
"May I ask who you are?"
"What brings you to the Federal State of Juraternpester?"
Cang Hua looked at Ximen Yan and his group and asked them very cautiously.
Although Ximen Yan and his group did not seem to have any hostility.
But they had been deceived once before.
Naturally, outsiders are more wary.
In addition, they also sensed a very strong aura from Ximen Yan and his group.
When asked, Xi Xing answered calmly.
"Lord Ximen Yan, we are your subordinates."
"I have come here to congratulate Lord Rimuru on his awakening as a Demon Lord."
...............................
Cangying and Canghua looked at Ximen Yan with caution.
After all, Lord Rimuru hasn't been a Demon Lord for very long.
However, after learning the purpose of Ximen Yan and his group's visit...
Cangying and Canghua couldn't very well stop Ximen Yan and the others.
"Since they've come to offer their congratulations, we'll make sure they're well taken care of."
Cangying said with a solemn expression.
Regardless of what Ximen Yan and his group's true intentions were.
However, after Simon made it clear that he had come to offer his congratulations.
The Federal State of Jurat Emperst naturally needs to do a good job of receiving them.
At this time, in the Jurat Emperst Federation, to celebrate Rimuru becoming the Demon Lord and Shion and others successfully resurrecting.
A large-scale celebration is underway.
However, Rimuru and Benimaru were not excited at this moment.
Because of the secret code between Rimuru and Benimaru—"How is Shion's cooking? It's terrible."
The two of them were sitting quietly to the side, waiting for Shion to prepare the meal.
It looked like a dish made by a witch, cooked without any processing and directly put into a pot to simmer.
Rimuru and Benimaru were both sweating profusely.
"It'll be ready soon, hehe..."
Ziyuan said happily.
This made Rimuru and Benimaru even more nervous.
"Why am I the same..."
Rimuru looked at Benimaru in a low voice and said.
He had absolutely no desire to eat Shion's cooking.
It's worth noting that Shion's ability granted Benimaru poison resistance.
"Please join me in enjoying the dishes made by Shion."
Benimaru said cautiously.
Compared to him having to handle Shion's cooking all by himself, having another person would probably give him some comfort.
"Don't drag me into this!"
Rimuru was quite helpless.
The King of Wisdom had already provided him with a solution.
Why is he eating Shion's cooking with Benimaru?
"What if a miracle happens and the dish turns out delicious?"
Hongwan comforted herself.
Now that things have come to this, there is no room for him to back down.
"Miracles don't happen that easily."
Rimuru's face was very unpleasant. How could Shion's cooking possibly be delicious!
..............................
Shion placed two bowls of unidentified dishes in front of Rimuru and Benimaru.
"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Please enjoy."
Rimuru and Benimaru remained silent as they looked at the dish that exuded an ominous aura.
They were reluctant to take action.
"Don't be shy, please eat as much as you like."
Ziyuan looked at the two with a smile and urged them on.
"Ziyuan, do you really understand the concept of cooking?"
Rimuru looked at Shion and asked cautiously.
“Of course, Lord Rimuru.”
"How does it look? Doesn't it look delicious?"
Shion looked at Rimuru with a smile and replied.
She is quite confident in her cooking.
"Why are the onions still attached to their skin and roots?!"
"The tomatoes were put in whole, stem and all!"
"You'll always need to process it like cutting it into pieces and peeling it, right?"
Rimuru looked at Shion with a hint of despair.
How could this dish possibly look delicious!
“If I do that, I’ll cut the house in half.”
Ziyuan explained helplessly.
"Huh? Not a cutting board, but the whole house?"
Rimuru stared blankly at Shion.
Can you cut a house while cutting food?
"Yes."
Shion nodded, then took out her weapon.
A huge long sword.
He continued, with a hint of distress.
"This Gorikimaru is sharp enough, but it's a bit too long."
Rimuru stared in disbelief at the Power Maru in Shion's hand.
"You use this to cook?"
"Yes."
Ziyuan nodded affirmatively.
“I’ve always felt that she’s capable of anything since I was little.”
"Looks like I'm still stuck in a well, with a limited perspective!"
Benimaru looked on with a sigh.
They actually thought of using weapons from battle to cook!
That's not how you use weapons! Rimuru was speechless.
He also didn't understand why Shion would use weapons meant for fighting to cook.
And it was a huge knife.
At that moment, Kurakage appeared beside Rimuru.
"Rimuru-sama."
"Oh, Kurakage! Is something the matter?"
Rimuru looked at Kurakage with anticipation.
"A man named Ximen Yan is on his way with several subordinates."
"They said they came to congratulate Lord Rimuru on becoming the Demon Lord."
Cangying said calmly.
Upon hearing Kurakage's words, Rimuru immediately perked up.
"In that case, I must go and greet them."
"Ziyuan, I'm sorry I can't enjoy your cooking."
"However, you can let Red Pill eat more."
As he spoke, Rimuru rushed out.
Only a disappointed Shion and a pale-faced Benimaru remained.
Chapter 595 Rimuru
Rimuru, who had escaped from Shion, brought Kage and Diavolo to the town entrance.
Rimuru originally only planned to bring Kurakage along.
However, Diavolo, who had no interest in the banquet, noticed Rimuru's actions.
So they followed directly.
Rimuru did not refuse.
Anyway, for him, having Diablo come along wouldn't be a problem.
What Rimuru was unaware of was...
Benimaru, who was left alone to face Shion's cooking, prepared herself for the possibility of dying, but after eating Shion's food, she suddenly found that Shion's cooking was surprisingly delicious.
This relieved Benimaru, but also made him curious.
After all, he had eaten Shion's cooking before.
They even developed a resistance to the toxin.
Now, Shion's cooking has actually become delicious.
This naturally made Benimaru feel extremely incredulous.
Shion also explained why this was the case quite frankly.
That is, she acquired the skill of being a chef.
