Chapter Text
The mighty forest of Jura was enjoying a peaceful and sunny day with a nice breeze blowing through Rimuru city.
The monster nation was coming down from a successful opening festival where people from various nations and their rulers were invited. Everyone was settling back into their routines.
The leader of the nation, Rimuru Tempest, was busy signing paperwork and answering letter from the rulers of allied nations when Souei materialized in his office.
"Hm? Oh, Souei. What's up my dude?"
"Lord Rimuru, we have a situation that requires your attention."
"Well then, paperwork can wait. It was starting to give me a headache anyway."
After arriving at the 100th floor of the Tempest dungeon labyrinth, the slime saw the pixie demon lord Ramiros, her trusty subordonates Beretta and Treyni, Veldora the storm dragon.
"What's going on you guys?"
Before anyone could answer, the fresh demon lord saw a young girl asleep on the bed.
"Who's that?"
"No idea."Ramiris shrugged.
Veldora stood up from his seat and stretched his limbs before saying "I found her passed out on the floor outside the room. I thought she might be a fairy so I called Rami over."
"She has wings and a magical aura but I don't know any kind of fairy or spirit that looks like her."
"But the dungeon isn't even open today. She just appeared on the hundredth floor out of nowhere?"
Beretta stepped forward. "That's not all. She had a severe wound on her torso that appeared to be the result of a lightning based attack. Lady Ramiris sent me to fetch a full potion as soon as we discovered it."
"Yikes, that sounds gnarly. She can't be older than 13 or 14. Just who is this girl?"
"She's waking up." The dryad Treyni, who was keeping an eye on the sleeping girl, interjected.
The redhead's eyes fluttered open. She sat up and rubbed her temples, groaning in discomfort.
"Hey, how are you feeling?" Rimuru asked.
The child gasped, looking around the unfamiliar room in panic and confusion as sparks of electricity bounced around her body.
"Hey, hey, it's alright. We're not gonna hurt you." Rimuru said, speaking softly as to not startle the girl."What's your name?"
The redhead knitted her brows together, fluttering her wings in frustration.
'Her wings look a bit small to carry a person her size. Kinda reminds me of a bumblebee.' the slime thought to himself.
"I can't recall my name..." The winged girl mumbled, sounding a little hoarse.
"Well that just complicates things."Rimuru sighed, crossing his arms. "I'll go have lodging prepared for her so Veldora can get his room back. We'll just have to figure things out as we go."
