## **Tensura: Multiversal Shenanigans**
### *Kaguya-sama Arc – Chapter 12: "Student Council War: Rimuru vs Kaguya Begins!"*
---
### **\[Scene: Student Council Room – After Classes End]**
Kaguya Shinomiya sits at the table, fingers elegantly steepled. Her eyes gleam with purpose.
**Kaguya (internal monologue):**
> "This Rimuru... he hides something. That smile is too perfect. That charm too refined. Is he... the kind of person Miyuki might admire?"
**Kaguya (eye twitch):**
> "Unacceptable."
Across the table, Rimuru sips tea with a smile that could rival the sun.
**Rimuru (internal monologue):**
> "Ciel, why is this girl staring at me like she's planning a political coup?"
**Ciel (calmly):**
> "Her behavior suggests possessive affection and intellectual rivalry. She suspects you may be... competition."
**Rimuru:**
(eyes widen slightly)
"...Eh?"
**Shirogane (nervously clearing his throat):**
"Ahem! Since our guests will be staying for a while, I propose a friendly Student Council Game. Classic rules. One-on-one strategic combat. Pride and snacks are on the line."
**Chika (bursting in):**
"*AND* the loser has to plan the school festival!"
**Ramiris (paling):**
"I don't do planning."
**Veldora (nodding sagely):**
"I once ran a festival in my cave. Only two slimes died."
**Rimuru:**
"...What kind of festival was that?"

### **\[Scene: The Next Day – Game Room]**
The match is set. The challenge? **"Balloon Mind Game"** – Each player wears a head balloon. They ask the opponent questions. Every time someone lies, their balloon inflates. First to pop loses.
Rimuru vs. Kaguya. Chika referees.
**Milim (pouting):**
"Why can't I pop balloons? I'd be great at that."
**Ramiris:**
"Because you'd just punch them before the game starts."
---
**\[The Match Begins]**
**Chika:**
"ROUND ONE. Let's GO!"
**Kaguya (smiling sweetly):**
"Rimuru-san, have you ever cheated in a game before?"
**Rimuru:**
"Hm… depends. I once cloned myself to win at cards with Veldora."
**BALLOON: Slight inflation**
**Rimuru (thinking):**
> "Wait, is that even considered cheating?"
**Ciel:**
> "Technically, yes."
**Kaguya:**
"Do you like Chika Fujiwara?"
**Rimuru:**
"She's… interesting?"
**BALLOON: Expands again**
**Chika:**
"Aw, you *do* like me!!"
**Rimuru:**
"THAT'S NOT WHAT THAT MEANT—!!"
---
**Kaguya's Turn:**
**Rimuru:**
"Do you like Shirogane?"
**Kaguya (coldly):**
"Not at all."
**BALLOON: *WHUMP* – Huge Inflation**
**Everyone:**
"…!!"
**Kaguya (blushing):**
"That's… that's inaccurate data!"
**Ciel (to Rimuru):**
> "Your opponents are emotionally unstable, Master. I recommend evasive tactics."
---
### **\[Scene: Game Nears End]**
Both balloons are trembling with pressure.
**Kaguya (sweating):**
> "I miscalculated. He deflects too easily. He's even better at playing dumb than Shirogane."
**Rimuru (sweating):**
> "Why do I feel like she's trying to murder me with compliments?"
**Final Question:**
**Kaguya:**
"Are you a normal human?"
**Rimuru (smiling gently):**
"Nope."
***POP!!* – Kaguya's balloon bursts.**
**Chika:**
"Winner: Rimuru Tempest!"
---
### **\[Scene: Aftermath]**
**Shirogane (bowing slightly):**
"Well played."
**Kaguya (internally):**
> "I'll have to try a different strategy. Perhaps... emotional manipulation?"
**Milim:**
"I wanna fight next!"
**Chika (clapping excitedly):**
"Tomorrow's challenge: DODGEBALL!"
**Veldora (grinning):**
"I shall bring my *Firestorm Style*!"
**Ishigami (horrified):**
"That sounds... *illegal*."
