After everyone relaxed and washed off the day in the hot springs, they made their way to the main dining section. Zyla flew in, with her robe on but also benimaru's kimono.

"So, lord zyla how did you enjoy your celebration?" Goblta asked sitting next to the woman.

Zyla looked up from her food wiping her mouth. "It was a lot of fun. It reminded me of something very familiar but I can't remember what.." she looked up into thought. "It's also similar to a thing I think was named cate?"

This caused Rimuru to look up in shock. "Cake?"

"Yes. That's the name. I don't know where I remember it from but I know it's something sweet." She laughed.

"I'm glad you had fun. Lord Rimuru put a lot of effort to make it fun." Shuna answered.

Zayla nodded her head before she disappeared from her spot. When everyone looked again she was hugging Rimuru. "Thank you Rimuru."

'So fast. I didn't even sense her sneak up on me.' Rimuru thought as his face was smushed into her chest. 'Boobs.. so soft and squishy' he mentally drooled.

"M'lady! Your food will get cold!" Reiki panicked. Zyla let go of Rimuru and was back at her seat in a blink of an eye.

"If you don't mind me asking, lady Zyla." Benimaru looked at the woman. "How are you moving so fast?"

Zyla felt everyone's eyes on her as she chewed her food. "I dunno know. I just do" she responded making everyone deadpan.

"If you'll allow?" Reiki offered causing zyla to wave him off as she brought the bowl to her face and ate pretty quickly. "Similar to the technique flash step. Because lady Zyla is able to manipulate time and space her unique skill also allows her to defy it."

"Huh?" Rimuru muttered saying what everyone else wanted to say.

Reiki sighed. "Lady Zyla Is able to subconsciously slow down time and travel through space to reach her destination quickly. I'll show an example."

Reiki picked up a chopstick and threw it at benimaru who visibly dodged it. "That's the speed we move, while with lady zyla." He nodded at vera who was across from them.

"Can i barrow this?" She grabbed a pin from shuna's hair that was extremely sharp.

She threw it at Zyla who had her head back drinking the wine. "Huh!!!! She didn't even move!"  Goblta yelled as he noticed the pin was now back in shuna's hair.

"In fact she did. Lady Zyla moves faster than the brain can comprehend. She managed to stop the pin and place it back in princess shuna's hair at a speed faster than light itself."

"Bingo!" Teca yelled as she had a bottle of wine in her hands. "Lady Zyla, literally controls time... in fact, it's been a slight debate that she is the fastest demon lord. She is so fast she could-" Teca's drunken words came to a sudden stop as she fell backwards.

Reiki quickly caught the butterfly girl that began to snore in his arms. "Who gave her wine?" He asked looking over at zyla who was side eyeing away from him. "She is still technically a child."

"Oh give me a break! I didn't think she'd get drunk so quickly." Zyla muttered putting the bottle down. "Vera is also now in a food coma so it seems we'll be staying here tonight." She pointed at the girl who was fast asleep next to a drunk shion.

"I will guide you to a room." Shuna stood as reiki put Vera on his back, but he felt her get taken when he looked it was phobio. The two carried the girls to a room.

"Thank you for allowing us to stay here." Zyla looked at Rimuru.

'I didn't allow anything! But you're to scary to say no to!' Rimuru thought in his head. "Yea sure it's no problem." He laughed waving his hands. "But might I ask?"

"Mhm?" Zyla looked up at him as everyone seemed to clear out. Benimaru dragging a sleeping Goblta with him.

"Teca mentioned you being the fastest is that true? I thought that Frey was or milim?"

Zyla looked at him, she nodded her head outside and Rimuru jumped up following her as she flew outside. Zyla summoned her flying pillow sitting on it and crossing her legs while Rimuru jumped on her lap in his slime form.

"Evidently Frey is fast, in the air that is. Milim is astonishingly fast along with strong." She said as the pillow floated into the air more. "But I can't say I quite know. We have never fought to determine which of us is stronger or faster."

"But, at the meeting. You snapped your fingers and everyone spawned back at where they were before?"

"Oh that. I basically manipulated the time frame. Walpurgis limits my space skills because it's in a different dimension. If a battle between me or milim were to happen... I wonder who would come out as the winner. It wouldn't be an easy fight, one of us might die in the process but it sure would be fun." Zyla smiled looking at the stars.

"Well lets hope that never happens." Rimuru responded causing the tan woman to look down at him. "Couldn't risk losing a major demon lord could we?"

Zyla stared at him before laughing. "Rimuru you sure are funny. A death of a demon lord wouldn't be a major lost, or tragic."

"What do you mean?" Rimuru asked.

Zyla sighed as she poked the blue slime. "Death is inevitable. You are bound to die sooner or later. Being a demon lord is just a title, even if anyone of us were to die now. It wouldn't change a thing. You'll just be replaced."

"I never thought of it like that."

"I'm surprised ramiris hasn't explained this to you. But monsters and humans think, if one demon lord dies they feel it's one less person to fear."

'That's deep yo' Rimuru thought in his mind as he saw her yawn. "Well, if you were to die just know there are people who will care."

Zyla looked at him with a smile before kissing the top of the blue slime. "You are right. Thanks for this talk and celebration. I demon lord Zyla will always lend a hand when needed." She smiled at him.

Rimuru suddenly felt a dreadful feeling causing him to shiver. 'What was that?' He looked around. 'That feeling? It's suffocating'

Zyla jumped at the sudden feeling of her heart slowing. "What the?" She muttered as she placed a hand over her chest. "No it can't be? Impossibe-" she muttered as she felt her eyes close.

"Huh!" Rimuru yelled as the pillow disappeared from under them and they began to fall from such a high height. "ZYLA!" He yelled at the woman who's breathing was slow. He tried to transform into his human form but it wouldn't let him. 'Raphael! What's happening?!' No response.

"We're gonna die!" He yelled as the ground was coming closer. Right before Rimuru was going to hit the floor he felt someone catch him and zyla. "Huh?"

He was placed gently on the ground. "M'lady Zyla? It's happening again. Siren!" A girl held the female demon lord.

"Ren." She went over to the two and placed her hand on the tan woman's forehead. "Crap!" The girl known as siren muttered as she quickly raced to where she sensed teca's faint presence.

"Teca?! Reiki?! Vera!" Phobio yelled as he looked at the three who's breathing was stopping.

"No. Not again." Siren muttered, looking at them as her sister ran in with Zyla in her arms and Rimuru behind him.
