Capítulo 75: Chapter 75: Dungeon Escape Room [Part 2]
Wearing what I call my crazy scientist getup, consisting of a lab coat with a purple bowtie, I sat there in my temporary workshop inside Ramiris's [Small World], creating thousands of different things like pipes, wiring, pistons, springs, and metal parts for the golem.
It was an annoying task due to the fact I needed to create thousands of different parts, but I promised to help Ramiris with it, and I wasn't going back on my words.
As I started working on the outer body armor parts, I sorted every piece into different piles. It was important to keep everything organized, or else I might forget one piece of the golem and would need to start over.
I could feel the excitement building inside me as I worked, building the Gandam-esc golem was actually fun. Especially knowing that soon enough, this pile of seemingly random parts would come together to form a powerful mecha golem.
"Oh! Let's paint that part yellow!" Ramiris said with excitement in her voice as she saw the armor part I just finished making.
"You are in charge of painting, so I'm leaving that stuff to you," I answered, engraving some details for the armor piece.
We worked tirelessly for days, carefully fitting each piece together like a puzzle. It was a tedious process, but there was a certain satisfaction in seeing the pieces come together flawlessly.
Finally, after what felt like an eternity, we stood back and admired our work.
A golem about double my size, standing around four meters high, covered in purple armor and yellow and black details. Ramiris said that the yellow color represents her and the purple represents me.
This golem will be the final boss before Rimuru and the kids arrive in the Dwelling of Spirits.
"It looks... Unique..." I said, looking at the golem. While it looked good, I don't think the color scheme was the best.
"That's the point!" Ramiris beamed while flying around the golem, "Now, if they manage to come to this floor, they will never forget this golem!"
"Let's try to turn it on to see if everything is working," I said, and Ramiris pressed the start button.
The golem started to start, and the sound was like music to my ear, "B... du..." At first, they glitched a bit but became clear after a while, "Baby Shark, doo-doo, doo-doo. Baby Shark..."
Ramiris looked at me, "Are you sure about the song..."
"Isn't it fun being attacked by a singing robot golem?" I asked

Sitting in my office, I started going through all the paperwork I put on the side for the last couple of months. The multiple stacks of paper were neatly sorted in piles that seemed to get taller with every second that passed.
I took the first report and read it through, "Interesting..." I said, taking a sip of my tea and putting down the report. It seems the Rosso Family hasn't changed a bit.
I took the next report and read it through, "Hahhh..." With a sigh, I put it on the gone-through stack of papers and rubbed my forehead, "Idiots... All of them."
Thanks to my shadows, it's quite easy for me to spy on other countries, and the only people who have ever noticed them in my shadows were people on the level of a True Dragon.
That's why I try my best to stay away from the Eastern Empire before I set my plan in motion. While I could wait for the war to progress like it would have, why not try to end it before it actually begins?
Right after my Unique Skill: [Mystery] evolves, I'll do it. First, start with Michael and then go for Feldway.
I started tapping my fingers on the wooden desk and going through more and more of the reports, and while doing it, I also went through my other plans, like how to deal with the Insectars, Yuuki, and Ivarage.
"I also need to kidnap Masayuki Honjou for everything to work out," I muttered to myself and felt that kidnap wasn't the best word to describe it.
It's more like helping him without him knowing I'm helping him... Yes, that's it! After everything is over, he will understand it was for everyone's greater good.
I'm not trying to justify that I would kidnap a kid before doing some magic shit so he would regain his memories.
The death of Veldanava and his sister drove him into a deep depression, one that enabled Michael to exploit to slowly twist Rudra's heart into a cold and heartless puppet.
For the next two thousand years, he was in a constant internal battle between himself and Michael, which exhausted his physical body and forced him to reincarnate repeatedly, losing pieces of his soul every time due to the strain.
Velgrynd gathered every fragment, piece by piece, living alongside dozens, if not hundreds, of versions of Rudra until only one remained.
The on in Masayuki Honjou, all of the soul fragments flew toward him of their own will. The instant that the fragments merged with Masayuki. This sudden return of his powers created a counter-force that sent him across time and space, with him returning to the Central World.
However, due to his return before the death of his previous self, large parts of his soul, including his memories, lay dormant.
So if I restore his memories, the good Rudra will be back, and I won't need to deal with the whole Emperor being killed and dealing with Velgrynd.
As I see it, Velgrynd would be happy to have the real Rudra back, and I could just leave the aftermath for him to deal with.

"My liege, you have been invited to the next Walpurgis Banquet," Mio said.
"Huh?" I looked up from the last report I had left, "Why would there be a new Walprugis?"
"It's about addressing the issue of Demon Lord Carrion's betrayal of the council and his co-conspirator Rimuru Tempest's Demon Lord self-proclamation alongside the murder of Clayman's subordinate."
"But that shouldn't have happened for yet... Mio, how long have I been here?" I asked.
"My liege, you have been going through the reports for over a month." She answered.
I just looked at her as if she was trying to prank me, 'Athena, is that true?'
[Notice. Master has been going to the reports for 1 Month, 2 Weeks, 1 Day, 4 Hours, and 36 Seconds.]
'Too much information, Athena,' I then looked at Mio, "Prepare my clothes for the banquet."
