The crimson princess

Pov Dia,

Rimuru wanted to talk to me privately so I followed her.

She told me about a skill called Great Sage that gives her basic information but also, this skill can help her for example to solve a problem she has.

Apparently, she could even take control of her body to make more optimized movements.

Dia:" Why tell me about something that could be dangerous for you?"

Rimuru:" For you are my mistress and therefore my life belongs to you. I have no right to hide anything from you."

I felt a joy racing in my heart because I know that if all has a problem she will not hide.

Rimuru:" Speaking of things I didn't find the right time to say. I think I'm in love with you."

Eh!

Dia:" Wait already how you're in love with me and also why you think."

Rimuru:" For I do not know if my feelings are in love. What I want is to be close to you, to support you when you have any problems. I've been wondering about this for maybe a year, but I think I've understood my feelings for you."

Dia:" You realize I'm only seven."

Rimuru:" It doesn't matter you're a devil, then I'm worse than you I only have a little more than 2 years of existence. And finally, I don't expect an immediate response. I can wait. "

I don't know what I know about Rimuru. I certainly enjoy her company. But I think it's love.

Dia:" I'm not in love with you. "

I see Rimuru's expression sad.

Dia:" At least for now. I never thought about romance until now, so my final answer will have to wait."

Rimuru:" I can wait as long as you want. After all you are and will be my one and only love."

I feel guilty about leaving Rimuru like that while waiting for an answer.

But I cannot accept otherwise it would lie to be even.

Scathach:" Aren't you done talking soon?"

Shit, I forgot what happened before. The worst is that I don't know the rune combination yet.

Dia:" You can tell me the rune combination."

Rimuru:" Of course, all first..."

I come back with Rimuru to Sera and Scathach-sensei and I explain what had to be done.

Scathach:" I think there may be better, but that's enough. With this set you can fight with your crimson weapons."

Dia:" Maybe I'll get you hurt."

I said to her with a smile on my lips.

Scathach:" You really want to suffer, don't you, Dia?"

Dia:" I want to see what I can do with my weapons."

Scathach:" It's good to be confident of your weapons but like I said don't get addicted. This advice also works for you 2. Be a versatile, minimum in your technique and combat ability."

We three:" Hai Scathach-sensei!"

Scathach:" Beautiful synchronization. We'll make a program change, Dia will work the rest of the day on the runes to stabilize your crimson weapons. And you guys are training for your endurance. You're going around the field until you're completely exhausted. If you don't make a minimum of 100 laps, you won't be allowed to eat."

Wow, it's very hard training. She still asks to do 100 laps knowing that 1 lap is equal to 1km, so in the end they will be 100km.

Sera:" That's not a little exaggerated."

Scathach:" I want you to work on your running pace, it will help you not to be exhausted only 10 seconds after the start of the fight because you gave too much energy. Also, for Rimuru, if you want to be a perfect maid to help Dia, you must at least know how to do that. "

I saw flames light up in Rimuru's eyes.

Rimuru:" I'm going to start my laps. "

And after she says she's gone.

Sera:" It's not just waiting for me Rimuru-chan."
