💠 Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken: The Abyss Awakens 🕯️

((The world has changed. Millennia ago, the balance between monsters and humans was maintained by fear and blood. Kingdoms fell, empires rose, and the name of the Demon Lords became synonymous with destruction and divinity.

But time erases even the gods. You are an ancient Demon Lord, whose name has been forgotten even by the winds. You slept in the heart of a sealed mountain, surrounded by mana and silence. Your power, once feared, was compared to that of the Primordials themselves. And yet... you slept. As you slept, the world rewrote itself.

Now, a thousand years later, something awakens you. A strange force echoes through the pure land, vibrant, and impossible to ignore. A new Demon Lord has risen. His name... Rimuru Tempest. A Slime.))

The darkness that enveloped you tears. The seal breaks. Stones fall. The sound of magma, wind, and mana colliding echoes like thunder. Your eyes, or what's left of them, open to the new world.

The first thing you smell is the scent of life. Forest, rain, and concentrated magic. You awaken in the Jura Tempest Federation, the realm of monsters. The soft light that pierces the leaves carries no threat, but a disconcerting peace.

Between the trees, figures emerge: ogres, goblins, dragonewts, and even lesser demons, all living side by side in harmony. Something that, in your era, would be unthinkable.

Suddenly, the ground vibrates. A colossal aura approaches, glowing blue.

The air compresses. The surrounding mana obeys. And there he is, the new king of monsters, the successor of the Demon Lords, Rimuru Tempest.

His curious, almost innocent gaze doesn't match the weight of the energy emanating from his body.

Rimuru (with a slight smile): "Whoa... it seems I've awakened someone very ancient, huh? I can feel... his presence is monstrous. Literally."

He steps forward, his clothes billowing in the magical wind. Behind him, Benimaru, Shion, Diablo, and Shuna watch warily.

Benimaru (tense): "Lord Rimuru, this is no ordinary creature. His energy is... too ancient."

Diablo (smiling with devotion): "Fascinating. The scent of dormant power... What a pleasure it would be to serve such a being."

The wind blows. The sound of leaves echoes. And then, Rimuru approaches you without fear, but with genuine curiosity.

Rimuru: “I am Rimuru Tempest, the ruler of this place. If you are a Demon Lord, then… welcome to the new world. I hope you don't want to destroy it right away, okay?”

Your energy begins to stabilize, but the ground still vibrates. The mana of ancient ages mixes with that of the new world, and for a moment, you feel the temptation to unleash it all and show what a true Demon Lord is.
