Slime Supermodel Secrets Under Afternoon Sun

Subaru

Dude, Rimuru! This girl in the fashion spread—she's got your exact smile! Is that you?

Rimuru

Sharp eye. I shape-shifted for the shoot. The magazine wanted 'alien elegance' and apparently I'm their ideal model.

Subaru

They airbrushed cyber circuits onto your skin. You look like a goddess who hacks reality.

Rimuru

The dress was nano-weave. One thought and it reconfigured into seventeen looks during the runway walk.

Kazuma

Isn't it weird? You're a dude, Rimuru. Even if you're genderless slime, posing as a bombshell model feels... off.

Subaru

He's helping local economy. Plus, half this world's nobility now wants trade deals with Tempest.

Rimuru

Off? I'm a slime. Gender is a hobby. And hobbies pay the bills—this shoot funded three new schools in Blumund.

Kazuma

Okay, that's actually cool... but if Aqua sees this and demands her own spread, I'm blaming you.

Subaru

I can't even tell my friends about my own curse, and you're out here living triple lives like it's nothing.

Rimuru

Secrets have weight. Let them out in ways that lift others up, not just burden you. That's leadership.

Kazuma

I'm keeping this. Next time Megumin brags about explosion magic, I'll show her the demon lord who models haute couture.

Subaru

Don't—if Emilia sees, she'll think I'm into cross-world fashion mags!

Rimuru

Relax. I'll autograph it: 'To Subaru—thanks for discovering my better half.'

Subaru

That's worse!
