Chapter 6 - 3. Charybdis

A few days have passed since I came to this world and joined Tempest.

"Wahahaha! You are very skilled!"

And I am currently engaging in taijutsu spar with Milim. Rimuru has prohibited Milim from fighting in his town, so this is the best we can go.

Her hits are very heavy.

Even though she is most likely holding back, just one hit that I didn't manage to dodge and had to parry it left my arm shaking.

So, all I am doing is dodging and trying to get a proper hit on her. The ones she is blocking don't count as proper hits.

But, our spar was interrupted.

An injured Dryad came in front of us.

Rimuru said, "What happened!?"

"I have an urgent dispatch. Charybdis has been revived.

And the dreaded beast is heading this way as we speak."

So, an emergency meeting began.

---------------

"What!? The Ruler of Skies has returned!?"

"It was magically sealed in the distant past. I cannot imagine the seal would come undone without a reason."

"Indeed. My sister Tyreni is busy holding it back. But she won't last very long."

"It's said that magic doesn't work on it!"

The people were panicking, but Rimuru was looking confused.

He must be thinking, 'What is Charybdis?'

Then, he had a look of understanding. Great Sage must be explaining about it to him.

So first things first, the main thing to do was to evacuate civilians.

"I am sure you all have sensed it, Charybdis is coming. And, I have decided to defeat it. Civilians, evacuate into the forest! Benimaru, prepare the army!"

Rimuru ordered the citizens of Tempest.

Benimaru came to me, to tell me about my placement in the army.

"You should join Souei's squad."

While it's true that I am a ninja, I don't think Souei's squad will fit me.

"I work alone."

Benimaru looked at Rimuru, and Rimuru shrugged.

"Alright."

So, preparations to take down Charybdis began.

Rimuru denied Milim's help, thinking that it is coming after him due to Veldora.

As Megalodons came in sight, I activated it.

'Susanno!'

"Woah! A mecha made of magicules!?"

Heh. I could feel Rimuru's eyes shining.

I took out my sword, and easily took down the Megalodons.

And the surroundings alongside it...

"Sasuke-kun! Can you not destroy the whole forest!?"

"Hn!"

I nodded and looked at the final boss that just appeared.

"Rimuru. Prepare a place for Charybdis to live. I am taming it."

"What!?"

I looked at its eye, and used Rinnegan's genjutsu.

Rinnegan pattern appeared in it, and it came under my control rather easily.

I went closer, and started embedding Rinnegan rods in it. And applied the contract.

And, Charybdis became my Animal Path's second summon.

"It's done. No need to attack it further."

"What!?"

"That's it!?"

Rimuru, Pegasus Knights of Dwargon, and rest of Tempest Army, all were surprised.

And honestly, it was anticlimatic.

Rinnegan is just too powerful.
