"you better be success... And safe..."

those were the last words before Rimuru blackout his subconscious and soul leave this body and transferred to another body

Thing would be fine since now Velgrynd is all alone in this place with endless of nothingness, where there no time or space, non concept nor means. Just a void, an vast of empty void that erase almost everything

Because of that Velgrynd guard was low, low enough that she can hear her own thought, the memory, the very own meaning of her life but not low enough to feel something's was off

"you alway quick one Velgrynd"  a familiar yet strange voice appear behind her. It's mechanic like tone set so back so bad many to Velgrynd and when she turn back where Rimuru ragdoll like body once was now gone

"What the!?!"  scream out from supprise, Velgrynd raise her guard up, alerting her surround but it quite

"pointless"  the voice said with a dull yet despise voice like it looking down on Velgrynd

"who are you!? And what did you do to Rimuru body!!?" Velgrynd shout out while prepare herself on what come next

And she was right, with a flash Velgrynd got launch away with a single blow to the gut out of nowhere making

"Ugh!!?" groan out of pain and shock, although yes Velgrynd had prepare herself first with multiple layer of barrier for protection yet the shocking part is not because that hit bypass thought all of Velgrynd defense it how it was done because that blow was purely physic

Although having the weakest defense out of all the true dragon at this point but still Velgrynd defense was no joke either and to shatter it like a piece of glass with just brute force alone that person have to on a whole nother level

While being launch thought the void Velgrynd trying to balance her body out to stop herself from launching

But before Velgrynd can slow her down, she got another blow but now at her back while the voice once again speak up

"There no point in trying to fight or run"

"I agree..." Velgrynd reply with a weaken voice from those 2 hit

"but... I can adapt"  finished speaking, Velgrynd cross both of her hands which result in her blocking the third blow which aiming right at her chest where her Core and Dragon Factor reside at

Now with a closer view Velgrynd can identify the person who attack her yet when she finally had a clear look, her eyes widen out of shock and disbelief

Because infront of Velgrynd very eyes is Rimuru with a crimson red and empty eyes, the same eyes that Manas Michael had

"n-no it can't be!!" Velgrynd shouts out as all the unpleasant memories, all the mind control and all the malipulation come rush back in like a flood making Velgrynd back away out of instinct

"how!? You-!" but before Velgrynd finish that sentence she realize someone, in spite of having the same eyes the preson infront of her right now isn't Michael

grip tightly both of her hand so it stop shaking, Velgrynd look straight at It and ask

"Who Are You?"
