Rimuru: Good idea. Thanks, Shuna. Rimuru: Let's take a breather. Shuna: Of course. Here you go. Shuna: For you, too, Shion. Shion: Thank you. Shion: I'll gladly have some. Rimuru: Ah, that's good. Shion: Very relaxing. Rimuru: Sure is peaceful. Shuna: Yes. Shuna: I hope it will stay like \Nthis for a good, long time. Rimuru: Well said. Shion: Oh, that's right! Rimuru: What's up, Shion? Shion: I baked some of those "cookies" \Nthat you taught me a recipe for! Shion: Please have them with your tea! Rimuru: Whoa! Our peace just got shattered! Shion: Go on, dig in!

Hiiro: I will avenge my village! Hiiro: Ogre Flame! Geld: Did you just say "avenge"? Geld: You're from the Ogre— Soka: I don't know who you are, but— Benimaru: Brother? Benimaru: It can't be... Hiiro: You're... Benimaru: Is that you, Brother? Benimaru: You're alive? Hiiro: Young master? Hiiro: Am I dreaming? Hiiro: How are you alive? Hiiro: The village was destroyed! Benimaru: Yes, but I survived. Benimaru: I was saved, and even given a name. Benimaru: I'm called Benimaru now. Hiiro: This is no dream. Hiiro: It's too good to be a dream! Hiiro: Me, too! Hiiro: Hiiro. Hiiro: That's my name. Benimaru: Hiiro... Benimaru: I see. Benimaru: You've been named, as well. Hiiro: Yes! Hiiro: Could there be a happier coincidence? Hiiro: How could you protect the Orc \Nthat destroyed our village? Benimaru: It's a long story, Benimaru: but we've reconciled. Benimaru: This is Geld. Benimaru: He's a valuable ally of ours here in Tempest. Hiiro: An ally? Hiiro: No. If you say it's true, Hiiro: then the Orcs are no longer our enemy. Hiiro: I sincerely apologize for my indiscretion. Geld: No, it is true that we \Ndestroyed the Ogre Village. Geld: That can never be forgiven, \Nno matter how many times I apologize. SubordinateA: Captain? SubordinateB: What's going on? Hiiro: This man called Benimaru and I were \Nfriends as children in the Ogre Village. Shion: Brother? Shion: Impossible... Shion: Is it really you? Hiiro: All of you... Hiiro: And Master, too! Shuna: Brother! Kurobei: Wow, you sure grew up! Soei: It's been too long. Shuna: I can't believe you're alive. Rimuru: I see. Rimuru: So Hiiro-san is your childhood \Nfriend from the Ogre Village, huh? Benimaru: Yes. He was as an older brother to us. Hiiro: More like a ringleader, really. Rimuru: Well, it's easy to see Rimuru: that they all really adored you. Hiiro: "Adored," eh? Benimaru: We consider him our real brother. Benimaru: That broken horn is a wound \Nhe received protecting me. Rimuru: I see. So it's your badge of manhood! Shuna: He also saved me when I was \Nabout to fall off of a cliff. Shion: He got into a lot of fights \Nwith Benimaru, too. Benimaru: Yeah. I always lost, though. Hiiro: Oh, come on. Hiiro: I lost sometimes, too. Kurobei: He was the strongest one in our village. Kurobei: That's why he left home \Nto work as a mercenary. Hiiro: And I took ten others with me. Hiiro: But we weren't blessed \Nwith very good employers. Benimaru: Which country did you end \Nup working for, anyway? Hiiro: Distave. Hiiro: Demon Lord Clayman's domain. Hiiro: I thought I'd be able \Nto make some good money, Hiiro: but then I found out the Ogre Village \Nwas about to be attacked, Hiiro: so I deserted his army. Hiiro: But... Shuna: Brother Hiiro... Hiiro: No, it's useless to think about it now. Hiiro: Right now, I should just be \Nhappy to see all of you again. Hiiro: This means my comrades \Ndidn't truly die in vain. Shion: That's right! Shion: The mere fact that you're alive is a win! Hiiro: When I was nearly dead after a battle, Hiiro: my life was saved by Queen Towa \Nof the Kingdom of Raja. Hiiro: I serve her now. Shuna: And she's the one who named you? Shuna: Naming another is a risk to one's own life. Shuna: It's not something that can \Njust be done on a whim. Hiiro: Yeah. Hiiro: Raja is a very small kingdom that \Nmakes its living mining gold, Hiiro: but some time ago, they completely \Nmined out a large gold vein, Hiiro: and it's now a mere shadow of the \Nprosperous nation it once was. Hiiro: Yet even in such trying times, Hiiro: Queen Towa is giving of her own life force Hiiro: to keep her kingdom, her people, alive. Mobuji: Chikuan! How is the queen's condition? Chikuan: Not good. Chikuan: If she continues to use her magic to \Nneutralize the toxins from the mines, Chikuan: the curse will take over her whole body, Chikuan: as it did with the queens \Nwho came before her. Mobuji: That tiara... Mobuji: The royal family has the ability \Nto use the tiara's magic Mobuji: to neutralize the mine toxins in the lake, Mobuji: protecting the people from their poison. Mobuji: But... Hiiro: In exchange, the wearer absorbs \Nthe Curse Poison in the tiara? Chikuan: The queen wouldn't have lost so much of \Nher life force if she hadn't named you. Chikuan: Oh, dear. My tongue slipped. Chikuan: Still, I've tried many medicines, \Nand none worked on the Curse Poison. Minister: If we don't mine gold, Minister: we can't import enough \Nfood to feed our people. Mobuji: Yes, but we can't force the \Nqueen to risk her life further. Hiiro: What if we cultivate the \NGreat Forest of Jura? Mobuji: That forest? Hiiro: We can be self-sufficient in food. Hiiro: The people can work the fields, Hiiro: and the soldiers and I can hunt. Minister: Don't be ridiculous! Minister: You're talking about violating a forest \Nguarded by the Storm Dragon Veldora! Minister: You clearly aren't in your right mind! Mobuji: Hiiro, you might not know this since you \Nonce lived in the Great Forest of Jura, Mobuji: but there is an unspoken agreement \Namong the surrounding nations Mobuji: that the forest is inviolable. Minister: Earning the wrath of Veldora would \Nsurely have disastrous consequences. Minister: Let a sleeping god lie, as they say! Hiiro: Are you saying you're fine with letting \NQueen Towa continue to suffer alone?! Hiiro: Is that what you call being \N"in your right mind"?! Mobuji: Now, calm down. \NWe feel the same way you do. Mobuji: The previous generation \Nentrusted us with the queen. Mobuji: We will protect her at any cost. Mobuji: That is the last job we old \Nfools have been tasked with. Hiiro: Then— Soldier (Runner): Urgent report! Soldier (Runner): The army from Falmuth that has \Ninvaded the Great Forest of Jura Soldier (Runner): engaged in battle with \Na nation called Tempest Soldier (Runner): and was completely wiped out! Hiiro: Tempest? Hiiro: The nation that stopped the Orcs? Mobuji: Their military is that powerful? Soldier (Runner): They also say the \NStorm Dragon Veldora was revived Soldier (Runner): by feeding on the bodies of \Nthe dead Falmuth soldiers! Mobuji: This is exactly what I was talking about! Mobuji: Do you get it now? Mobuji: This is why the forest is inviolable! Minister: They got what they had coming. Soldier (Runner): But the leader of Tempest, Rimuru, Soldier (Runner): successfully negotiated with \Nthe newly revived Veldora Soldier (Runner): to prevent all casualties outside \NFalmuth's army before they could happen. Mobuji: What?! Hiiro: Their leader, Rimuru? Hiiro: If we tell him what's going on, \Nmaybe he'll agree to the cultivation! Mobuji: They do say his nation accepts \Nmonsters of all types. Minister: True... Hiiro: I will serve as our messenger to Tempest. Hiiro: You won't object to that now, will you? Mobuji: Very well. Minister: Do be careful. Minister: We can't have you poking at a \Nbush and flushing out a snake. Hiiro: I know that. It's a dragon I want to see. Hiiro: A snake won't do me any good. Hiiro: That's how I ended up here with these two, Hiiro: but then I raised my blade to Geld... Hiiro: no, to the people of Tempest \Nwithout even thinking. Hiiro: I apologize. Subordinates: We're very sorry! Rimuru: Well, you had your reasons. Rimuru: Don't worry about it. Rimuru: Okay, I guess I should add \Nsome more to this info dump. Hiiro: More? Rimuru: I became a Demon Lord. Rimuru: Oops! Sorry! SubordinateB: A D-Demon Lord? Shuna: That's right! Shion: He defeated Clayman and earned the \Napproval of the other Demon Lords! Rimuru: Aw, it wasn't that big a deal... Hiiro: He defeated... Clayman?! Shion: Great Rimuru was absolutely fantastic! Hiiro: I see... Rimuru: Anyway, you said you wanted \Npermission to cultivate the forest? Rimuru: Hey, Veldora. Rimuru: Is entry into the forest \Nreally forbidden? Why? Veldora: I dunno. Rimuru: You heard him. SubordinateA: Vel... SubordinateB: ...dora? Rimuru: Oh, I guess I forgot to introduce you. Rimuru: This is my friend, Veldora-kun. Rimuru: Go on, say hello. Veldora: I am the Storm Dragon Veldora. Veldora: As long as you don't make a lot of noise, \Nyou can enter the forest all you want. Hiiro: Great... Veldora? Rimuru: Uh, yeah, well... Rimuru: You've got permission now, \Nso you don't need to worry about— Milim: I want in on this, too! Rimuru: Milim?! Milim: You're having a banquet today, right? Milim: Why didn't you tell me?! Rimuru: It's not a banquet. \NThere's just a messenger here. Milim: I know it's a banquet! You're drinking! Milim: How could you not invite me?! That's so cold! Rimuru: Hey! Milim: I can't let this slide \Njust 'cause we're besties! Milim: Right, Veldora?! Veldora: What?! This is a banquet?! Veldora: You didn't save any for me! Rimuru: I told you, we have a messenger visiting! SubordinateA: Milim? That Milim? SubordinateB: Nah, couldn't be... Rimuru: The banquet comes after! Milim: See?! It is a banquet! Hiiro: Rimuru! Rimuru: Come on, just calm down a little. Rimuru: Yes? Hiiro: I wish to make a formal request of the leader Hiiro: of the Jura Tempest Federation, \NRimuru Tempest. Hiiro: If nothing is done, \Nthe Kingdom of Raja will fall. Hiiro: I want to save Queen Towa, who saved my life, Hiiro: and the citizens she treasures so deeply. Hiiro: I beg you, for the good \Nof Raja, lend me your aid! Benimaru: Great Rimuru, I make the same request of you. Shuna: Me, too. Rimuru: Hey, come on, you guys. Raise your heads. Rimuru: You don't have to beg. Of course I'll help. Rimuru: Towa-san seems to really \Ncare about her people, Rimuru: and I'd like to see this Kingdom of Raja. Rimuru: Is it okay if I visit her to \Nwish her well in her recovery? Hiiro: Of course! Benimaru: Great Rimuru... Benimaru: Thank you. ShunaShionHakuKuroSoei: Thank you. Hiiro: I thank you for your kindness. Hiiro: Be well, Master. Hakuro: I'll train you again sometime. Hiiro: Please go easy on me when you do. Kurobei: Come see us again soon. Hiiro: Yeah, I will. Rimuru: Okay, we're off to the Kingdom of Raja. Rimuru: Let's go! Gabiru: Take care! Kakushin?: Safe travels! Gobta: Bring us some cool stuff back! Yashichi?: We await your return! Hiiro: It's within sight now. \NThat's the Kingdom of Raja. Shuna: It's such a beautiful country! SubordinateA: Thank you! SubordinateA: But it does have far less \Nvitality than it used to... SubordinateA: F-Forgive me. Shion: That was a good rumble. Shion: I had a feeling this might happen, so... Shion: Here! Rimuru: Wh-What happened? Rimuru: Ranga, follow them! Hiiro: This is our prime minister, \NMobuji, and our minister. Hiiro: That is the leader of the \NJura Tempest Federation, Hiiro: Rimuru Tempest. Mobuji: Goodness! We have little to \Noffer in the way of hospitality, Mobuji: but allow me to welcome you on \Nbehalf of the Kingdom of Raja. Minister: Thank you for coming all this way. Minister: So... I heard that you were a \Nmonster... specifically, a slime... Rimuru: Oh... Rimuru: You mean this? Rimuru: Is it easier for you to \Ntalk to me in this form? Minister: P-Please forgive my indiscretion! Minister: I didn't realize you had assumed \Nthat form for our benefit! Minister: Please return to the way you were! Rimuru: Really? Minister/Mobuji: Yes! Rimuru: Okay. Hiiro: How is Queen Towa? Mobuji: She's sleeping. Mobuji: Chikuan is with her. Hiiro: Then I'll give my report here first. Hiiro: The Storm Dragon Veldora \Nhas granted us permission Hiiro: to cultivate the Great Forest of Jura. Mobuji: What?! Minister: You met him?! Hiiro: Rimuru introduced me to him. Rimuru: It's really not that big a deal. Rimuru: Just make sure you don't get too greedy. Mobuji: Yes, of course! Minister: Thank you so much! Minister: I'm sure everyone will be thrilled! Minister: But a large-scale cultivation effort \Nwill require the aid of specialists. Minister: It won't be eas— Ramiris: No need to worry about that! Rimuru: I know that voice. Minister: Wh-What's going on?! Rimuru: Oh, don't worry. It's okay. Rimuru: That's a friend of mine. Rimuru: Treyni-san? What are you doing here? Mobuji: Treyni? Mobuji: You mean... the Dryad?! Minister: I-It can't be! Minister: I never thought I would \Nsee you in all my days! Minister/Mobuji: We are so blessed! So blessed! Minister: I can now die happy. Mobuji: I feel like I'll live longer now. Ramiris: Hey! You two! Ramiris: You're not gonna tell me \Nyou can't see me, are you?! Minister: We're trying to enjoy the moment here! Ramiris: What?! Mobuji: You're making too much noise! Mobuji: Can't you save this for later? Ramiris: Hey, Rimuru! Ramiris: Tell them who I am! Rimuru: U-Um, this is... Treyni: She is our ruler, the Queen of \NSpirits, and a Demon Lord... Ramiris: The Great Ramiris! Minister/Mobuji: A D-Demon Lord?! Ramiris: That means I'm more important than Treyni! Ramiris: Got it?! Minister/Mobuji: Forgive us! Minister: The great Veldora, the great \NTreyni, and a Demon Lord... Hiiro: The leader Rimuru himself Hiiro: has been formally acknowledged \Nas a Demon Lord, as well. Minister: Oh, my... Treyni: I'd like to get straight to the point. Treyni: I understand the dire situation Raja is in. Treyni: Cultivation is important, but you \Nshould also be prepared to farm. Mobuji: Well said! Minister: I see! Yes, of course! Rimuru: Treyni-san really can show up anywhere. Treyni: Let us first improve your waste collection \Nto produce better fertilizer. Rimuru: Well, I think we can safely \Nleave the farming to her. Minister: Ah! I will assemble workers at once! Benimaru: Indeed. Treyni: You can use the leaf \Nmulch in the forest to... Chikuan: The queen has awakened. Hiiro: All right. Hiiro: Rimuru, please come and see Queen Towa. Rimuru: Sure. Hiiro: Queen Towa, I've brought the leader \Nof the Jura Tempest Federation, Hiiro: Rimuru Tempest, to see you. Towa: Thank you for traveling so far. Towa: I'm sorry to greet you in this state. Hiiro: Rimuru might be able to treat you. Rimuru: I can't ask you to \Nimmediately trust a monster Rimuru: who just showed up out of nowhere, but... Towa: I trust you. Rimuru: Really? That easily? Towa: I have no reason to doubt anyone \NHiiro has brought to me. Hiiro: Queen Towa... Rimuru: All right, then. \NMind if I take a look at you? Towa: Are you curious? Rimuru: Y-Yeah. Rimuru: I've heard whoever wears that \Ncan use immense magic power. Rimuru: I definitely sense incredible power in it. Towa: You can tell? Towa: It's because I have this tiara that I \Ncan protect my nation and its people. Rimuru: But it afflicts you with \NCurse Poison in return? Towa: All things come with a price. Raphael: Answer. Raphael: The tiara's Curse Poison cannot be removed. Raphael: Only the one who placed the \Ncurse on it can remove it. Raphael: However, so long as she \Ndoes not use the tiara, Raphael: she should gradually recover. Rimuru: I see. Raphael: Depending on the user's life force, \Nit's possible to resist the Curse Poison. Raphael: But the recovery of her life force \Nseems to be drastically delayed. Raphael: Symptomatic treatment is recommended. Raphael: Please administer honey \Nas a restorative tonic. Towa: It's delicious. Rimuru: It's special honey produced in Tempest. Rimuru: It's the best medicine there is. Rimuru: Try to have a spoonful after every meal. Towa: I can feel my body warming \Nup from the inside. Hiiro: It's true... Her color already looks better. Hiiro: It works that quickly? Rimuru: The Curse Poison won't be easy to get rid of, Rimuru: but as long as she doesn't use \Nthe tiara, she'll get better. Hiiro: Really?! Rimuru: Yeah. Towa: Thank you so much. Towa: But if I don't use this power, \Nthe toxins from the mines will... Rimuru: I'll take care of that, too. Towa: Huh? Rimuru: Can I ask you to leave that to me? Rimuru: Hundreds of years of mining are causing Rimuru: toxins from the mines to pour into this lake. Rimuru: Right, Towa-san? Towa: Yes. Towa: The lake was once filled \Nwith pure, clean water, Towa: but now, it's a lake of death. Towa: Eventually, the poison will be so strong \Nthat the air around it becomes toxic. Shuna: Great Rimuru, couldn't you remove \Nall the toxins from the mines Shuna: and restore the water in the \Nlake to complete purity? Rimuru: Yeah. Towa: Really?! Rimuru: But... hang on a minute. Rimuru: When I arrived in this country... Raphael: Notice. Raphael: The composition of this poison \Nis not found in nature. Rimuru: I analyzed the water from the waterfall, Rimuru: and something wasn't right. Hiiro: What do you mean? Rimuru: The poisons in this lake aren't \Ntoxins from gold mines. Rimuru: So that's it. Rimuru: Devour all, Beelzebub! Raphael: Notice. Raphael: The purification of the poison is complete. Rimuru: All right! Benimaru: Everyone is happy. Rimuru: Yeah. I'm glad. Shion: Of course they are! Shion: We got permission to cultivate \Nthe Great Forest of Jura, Shion: Queen Towa is on the road to recovery, Shion: and the lake was purified along with \Nthe thing that was poisoning it! Shion: And it's all thanks to Great Rimuru! Benimaru: Why are you so proud? Shion: What are you talking about, Benimaru? Shion: I am Great Rimuru's first secretary! Shion: That means Great Rimuru and \NI are of one body and mind! Benimaru: You lost me. Benimaru: Anyway, what do you think that \Nmagic circle was all about? Rimuru: It looked pretty old. Rimuru: I'd guess it was made by the same person \Nwho put the Curse Poison on the tiara. Shuna: There's a legend that says the tiara \Nwas a gift bestowed by a goddess, Shuna: but no one knows anything else about it. Rimuru: I don't know if it was a goddess or not, Rimuru: but we'll just have to ask whoever cursed it. Rimuru: Assuming they're still alive, that is. Hiiro: Rimuru! Hiiro: I can't offer much, Hiiro: but I want to express my gratitude \Nin whatever way I can. Rimuru: This is more than enough. Hiiro: There isn't much in this nation \Nthat I could give you in return, Hiiro: but someday— Rimuru: Yeah, I'll make sure you \Nrepay the favor someday. Rimuru: So for now, can we continue \Nour relationship with Raja? Rimuru: When I saw Towa-san sacrificing herself Rimuru: to protect her country and her people, Rimuru: it made me feel like I have \Nto be just as reliable. Rimuru: I want to continue to be friends \Nwith the people of this country. Rimuru: Is that okay? Hiiro: Thank you! Shion: Drink with us, Brother! Benimaru: Hey, come on. Benimaru: Shion! Shuna: Shion, you shouldn't drink too much. Rimuru: Well, I think I'll go see \Nhow Towa-san's doing. Benimaru: You're the only one who's sloshed. Shion: Yay! Great Rimuru! Rimuru: Towa-san. Rimuru: How are you feeling? Towa: Better and better, \Nthanks to the honey you gave me. Towa: I truly thank you for everything. Rimuru: Aw, it was fine. Rimuru: Benimaru and his gang asked me to help, too. Rimuru: I did it because I wanted to. Towa: I envy you, Great Rimuru. Towa: You're the leader of a nation just like me, Towa: but you're open about how you feel and \Nspend your days with your companions. Rimuru: Huh? Towa: I'm truly unfair. Towa: When I saw Hiiro risking \Nhis life for his comrades Towa: and protecting them as he fought, Towa: I thought he seemed like \Nsomeone I could trust. Towa: That if I saved him, and he joined my side... Rimuru: Towa-san... But, I mean... Towa: I know. Towa: It was calculating and selfish. Rimuru: But doesn't that go for everyone? Rimuru: We all do some internal \Ncalculation sometimes. Rimuru: I don't think being \Ncalculating is a bad thing. Towa: Huh? Rimuru: Besides, just because you named him Rimuru: doesn't mean you bound his soul to you. Rimuru: Just look at all my friends. Rimuru: They say whatever they want to me, Rimuru: and do whatever they feel like. Rimuru: With some individual variation, of course. Towa: Is... that how it works? Rimuru: Yeah, it is. Rimuru: You're just taking things too seriously. Rimuru: If you keep that up, your own sense \Nof responsibility will crush you. Rimuru: You should lighten up and be \Nmore honest about your feelings. Towa: You're very kind, Great Rimuru. Rimuru: That's what you call "calculating." Rimuru: All so we can continue \Nto get along from now on. Lacua: H-How can this be?! Lacua: They're cultivating the \NGreat Forest of Jura?! Lacua: The lake has been purified?! Lacua: What is going on? What is going on? Lacua: I don't understand. Towa: Thank you all for your hard work. Lacua: This can't be possible! It can't be... MinerA: Queen Towa, you seem well. MinerB: What a relief! Lacua: The queen has recovered?! Mobuji: Well, well, if it isn't Lacua. Lacua: M-Master Mobuji! Lacua: It's been a long time! Lacua: I've brought a variety \Nof goods for you again! Mobuji: Wonderful. Mobuji: Now, come and relieve the \Nexhaustion of your travels first. Lacua: So, ah... Lacua: The atmosphere here seems \Nto have changed somehow. Mobuji: A lot has happened in these past ten days. Mobuji: We can take our time discussing \Nthat this evening. Mobuji: Goodbye until then. Lacua: This is awful! Lacua: What in the world happened?! Lacua: How could this be?! Lacua: My plans were ruined by a \NKijin survivor and a slime?! Lacua: But fulfilling her wish was my \Nticket to elevating my status! Lacua: Damn it! Lacua: Yes... Lacua: What we need is chaos and tragedy! Rimuru: You know... Rimuru: You don't have to come back here every time. Rimuru: You can use Thought Communication \Nto report to me. Shion: That's right, second secretary. Diablo: What are you talking about, Great Rimuru? Diablo: Running to your side is \Nno trouble for me at all. Hiiro: It's been a long time \Nsince I left the village. Hiiro: Now I'm finally able to come \Nback here with all of you. Hiiro: I'm here today, alive and well, \Nthanks to you all. Hiiro: And... the young master and our \Nother friends are still alive, too. Hiiro: We sure were fired up about earning money Hiiro: to make their lives easier \Nand feed them tasty food. Hiiro: And now all of you are gone... Hiiro: I'm sorry, everyone. Hiiro: If I... If only I were... Benimaru: Great Rimuru told me you were here. Hiiro: If only I were stronger, \NI could have protected them. Benimaru: Yeah. Hiiro: If only I could have been a better leader... Benimaru: I guess so. Hiiro: I was the one being protected. Hiiro: They gave everything to keep me alive. Hiiro: If it costs my life... Hiiro: If I must give everything \NI have, next time... Hiiro: Next time, I will protect my comrades! Benimaru: Brother. Benimaru: I always liked that one-track mind of yours. Benimaru: But don't forget that you've \Ngot us and Great Rimuru, too. Hiiro: Right. SubordinateA: Captain! SubordinateA: Bad news! It's Queen Towa! Rimuru: She collapsed? Treyni: The lake suddenly became so poisoned \Nthat the air became toxic, Treyni: so she used the tiara in an \Nattempt to save her people. Rimuru: So suddenly? Rimuru: I got rid of the weird magic circle \Nthat was making the poison, though... Raphael: Yes. Raphael: It was completely removed, and all of \Nthe poison in the lake was purified. Diablo: What's this about a weird magic circle? Shion: It was at the bottom of the lake. Shion: It looked very old. Diablo: I see... Diablo: An old magic circle? SubordinateA: So the curse spread \Nthroughout her body again. SubordinateA: The honey Great Rimuru gave \Nher is keeping her alive, SubordinateA: but there's another problem... Hiiro: What is it? SubordinateA: We received word that the neighboring \Nnation's army is on the move. SubordinateA: Everyone is panicking. Shion: Great Rimuru, shouldn't you hurry to Raja? Rimuru: Yeah, but... Rimuru: I purified the lake, but it's poisoned again. Rimuru: The neighboring nation made a move \Nthe moment Towa-san collapsed... Diablo: You think it's all too \Nperfect to be coincidental. Rimuru: Exactly. Shion: I-I was just about to say that, too! Rimuru: Towa-san had exhausted a \Ngreat deal of her life force. Rimuru: Was that doctor of theirs, Chikuan, \Nreally treating her at all? Rimuru: There are too many questions. Rimuru: Soei! Soei: I am here. Rimuru: Find out why Raja is being targeted. Soei: At once. Soei: Let's go. Soka: Right. Rimuru: Shion, get everyone together. Commander: Assume counterattack formation! Soldiers: Yes, sir! Mobuji: Chikuan! Chikuan: In her current state, it will \Nbe difficult to relocate her. Chikuan: She won't last long enough to avoid \Nthe battle and remain on the run. Mobuji: Oh, no... Towa: I'm sorry, Hiiro... Towa: I couldn't... save your friends... Hiiro: Queen Towa! Hiiro: You have nothing to apologize for! Towa: You are... free to do whatever you want. Hiiro: What are you saying? Towa: I'm... sorry, Hiiro... Hiiro: There's nothing you need \Nto apologize for at all. Hiiro: Why do you have to suffer like this? Rimuru: As you can tell, we don't know who's \Npulling the strings behind all this, Rimuru: and we might be facing a battle. Rimuru: But I intend to trust Towa-san \Nand take Raja's side. Rimuru: I'd like all of you to help. Text: SIRIUS Benimaru: No objections from me. Shuna: We have Brother Hiiro, too. Shuna: We were all hoping to ask \Nfor your help, as well. Rimuru: Then start making preparations right away. All: Right! Rimuru: Veldora! Veldora: You want me to stay behind, right? Rimuru: You're the only one I can \Ntrust to look after Tempest. Veldora: I thought so. Veldora: You can rest easy in knowing \Nthat I am on the job! Diablo: Great Rimuru. Diablo: I may have an idea as to who created \Nthe Curse Poison in the tiara Diablo: and the magic circle in the lake. Rimuru: What? Diablo: If you will permit it, Diablo: I will personally negotiate \Nto have the curse undone. Rimuru: I permit it! I permit it! Rimuru: I'm counting on you, Diablo! Diablo: Thank you! Diablo: I will live up to your expectations. Hiiro: Even after Rimuru did all he could, Hiiro: the poison returns. Hiiro: And every time it does, \NQueen Towa uses the tiara's power. Hiiro: How can we overcome this? Lacua: Master Hiiro! Hiiro: Do you need something, Lacua? Lacua: I have some highly confidential \Ninformation for you. Lacua: It's about a possible way \Nto save Her Majesty's life. Hiiro: What do you mean? Tell me! Lacua: There is a secret art. Lacua: It involves transferring one's \Nsoul to another object... Lacua: or in other words, switching bodies. Hiiro: Such a method can't really exist. Lacua: I don't blame you for having your doubts. Lacua: But it does exist! Lacua: Of course, certain conditions \Nmust be met in order to do it. Lacua: It involves some degree of compatibility. Lacua: But... Lacua: Since your soul and Her Majesty's \Nare linked by the ritual of naming, Lacua: surely it will work out. Hiiro: Truly?! Lacua: Yes, yes! Lacua: However! We must also consider this! Lacua: If we were to transfer Her \NMajesty's soul into your body, Lacua: your soul would have nowhere \Nto go, and it may be lost. Lacua: If you are prepared for that possibility... Lacua: That is all I can say. Hiiro: You're saying I can give my body... \Nthe life that Queen Towa saved... to her? Hiiro: I see. Hiiro: Then, I know what I need to do. Lacua: Y-You mean... Hiiro: I will return this life to Queen Towa. Hiiro: Begin the process at once. Lacua: You would sacrifice yourself... Lacua: What a beautiful heart you have! Lacua: I am deeply moved! Hiiro: What's that? Lacua: This is called a "Curse Orb." Hiiro: Curse Orb? Lacua: One might also call it a \Nsecret treasure of power. Lacua: It's said that it can rebuild a body \Nto be stronger than it was before. Lacua: It's a highly valuable article \NI picked up in the far west, Lacua: but to ensure the success of the \Nritual for transferring souls, Lacua: I will need you to swallow it. Hiiro: All right. Hiiro: I feel strange... Lacua: It just takes a bit of time for \Nyour body to accept the orb. Lacua: Now, let us relocate to a place \Nwhere no one will interfere. Rimuru: Everyone ready? All: Yes! Rimuru: Okay, I'll transport us now. Mobuji: Oh, Rimuru! Rimuru: Mobuji-san, Minister. Mobuji: We can't find Her Majesty! Rimuru: What?! SubordinateA: Our captain is also missing. Mobuji: Where have they gone at a time like this? Rimuru: Ranga. Ranga: Yes, Master! Lacua: We should be able to conduct \Nthe ritual in peace here. Lacua: Now, place Her Majesty up there. Hiiro: Queen Towa, you can rest at ease. Mobuji: Why would Hiiro and the queen \Ncome to a place like this? Soei: Great Rimuru, may I? Rimuru: Soei, what is it? Soei: I know why the neighboring \Ncountry is targeting Raja. Rimuru: Hang on. The prime minister \Nand minister are here. Rimuru: I'll let them hear this, too. Rimuru: Okay. Soei: The neighboring country is after a \Nlarge gold vein resting beneath Raja. Rimuru: A gold vein? Soka: That is the rumor going around \Nin the neighboring country. Soei: They are hastily preparing to \Nattack so they can claim it. SubordinateA: Uh, I don't know anything about this! SubordinateB: I don't, either! Ranga: If you're lying, you'll regret it! Mobuji: W-Wait, Ranga! They're not lying! Mobuji: It's true that large amounts of \Ngold were dug up here in the past, Mobuji: but now, you won't find any \Nbigger than my little finger! Rimuru: Ranga, these people aren't lying. Rimuru: If they had something like that, Rimuru: they wouldn't be trying to cultivate \Nthe Great Forest of Jura. Rimuru: Still... Raphael: Notice. Raphael: It is unnatural for their army to \Nmobilize at this point in time. Rimuru: That's true. Rimuru: Still, our first priority has \Nto be protecting this place. Rimuru: Minister, how big is your army? Minister: We have about 2,000. Rimuru: Assemble them right away, \Nand evacuate all civilians. Minister: But— Rimuru: Don't worry. When the fighting starts, \Nmy friends will help you. Mobuji: Minister! Minister: Y-Yes! Right away! Minister: You two! Subordinates: Yes, sir! Rimuru: Head over to help, too, Soei. Soei/Soka: Right away. Ranga: Master, I smell them. Rimuru: So they're beyond here? Lacua: Now, then, Master Hiiro... Hiiro: Yes. Towa: Hiiro? Towa: What is... Lacua: We are going to conduct a ritual to transfer \Nyour soul into Master Hiiro's body. Hiiro: You won't have to suffer anymore. Towa: What... do you mean? Hiiro: I want to return the life you gave me. Lacua: Master Hiiro is going to \Noffer up his life to save yours. Hiiro: Don't worry. Towa: No... You can't... Towa: I won't allow it... Absolutely not! Hiiro: Queen Towa! Hiiro: I'm only doing what I want to do. Towa: You can't do this! Towa: Your life doesn't belong to you alone! Towa: You have to live! Towa: Live for yourself, \Nand for your fallen comrades! Towa: And... for me... Hiiro: Queen Towa... Hiiro: Those words alone are enough. Hiiro: Begin the ritual. Hiiro: Lacua? Lacua: Bravo! Lacua: Excellent! Truly excellent! Lacua: What a sad, yet lovely, sight! Lacua: Simply beautiful! Hiiro: What? Lacua: Oh, I beg your pardon! Lacua: It was such a beautiful scene, \NI couldn't help but applaud. Lacua: When that damned slime ruined my \Nscript, it chilled me to the bone... Lacua: But look! Lacua: A magnificent recovery, \Nif I do say so myself! Lacua: Oh, how fun! I'm so happy! Lacua: Oh! And I'm sure she will \Nbe most pleased, as well! Hiiro: What the hell are you talking about?! Hiiro: What about the ritual?! Lacua: Such a ritual does not exist! Towa: You're... Lacua: A secret art that transfers souls? Lacua: As if such a convenient \Nsolution could truly exist! Hiiro: You tricked me?! Lacua: Ah, how comical! Lacua: You did indeed swallow a \Nsecret treasure of power, Lacua: and there is a secret art. Lacua: But... it's not the secret \Nart you think it is! Lacua: It is an even greater trial! Lacua: One that will surely prompt the \Nqueen to use the tiara's magic! Lacua: And then... Lacua: Once the queen's body has \Nwasted away completely... Lacua: My lady's applause will rain down upon me! Lacua: Rewards will befall me like \Nthe words of the gospel! Hiiro: You bastard! Lacua: Yes, that's it! Lacua: That rage will be the fuse \Nthat ignites your despair! Lacua: Burst, Curse Orb! Towa: Hiiro! Rimuru: Hurry! Benimaru/Shuna/Ranga: Right! Lacua: Now, remember, Master Hiiro, Lacua: while you are still aware! Lacua: Come on! Lacua: Remember the despair of seeing \Nyour village trampled! Lacua: The agony of losing your comrades! Lacua: The anger with yourself for being \Ntricked and having no power to stop it! Lacua: Marvelous! Lacua: Your rage and hatred have fueled \Nyour descent into madness! Lacua: Rampage! Destroy! Lacua: Force your beloved queen to use her power! Lacua: That will provide my lady the \Nfinest possible entertainment! Towa: Hiiro? Lacua: That's it! Go on a rampage! Lacua: How does it feel to be a Mad Ogre? Lacua: It's a good feeling to trick \Nsomeone as simple-minded as you! Lacua: It looks just like Hell! Towa: Hiiro... Lacua: Ah, Your Majesty! Lacua: Can you allow this to carry on? Lacua: You must save Master Hiiro! Towa: I have... to save him... Rimuru: Sorry we're late! Towa: Huh? Shuna: You're safe now. Benimaru: That form... What happened to you, Hiiro?! Lacua: You again?! Rimuru: Are you the one behind all this? Lacua: Curses! You're in my way at every turn! Rimuru: Hey! Benimaru: Great Rimuru! Go! Rimuru: Take care of him! Rimuru: Shuna, take care of Towa-san! Shuna: Right! Rimuru: Let's go, Ranga! Rimuru: There he is! Ranga: He will not escape! Lacua: Try some of this! Lacua: You damned slime! Soei: Great Rimuru. Rimuru: Soei! Soei: The neighboring country's \Narmy has begun to march. Soei: They will soon reach the \NKingdom of Raja's border. Rimuru: Got it! We're kinda busy over here, so... Rimuru: Can you all hear me? Rimuru: I want to keep the losses to a minimum, Rimuru: so you can defeat the enemies if you want, Rimuru: but don't kill anyone if you don't have to. Rimuru: Of course, if you have no other choice, Rimuru: put your own safety first! Rimuru: Got it? All: Got it! Diablo: Long time no see, Violet. Violet: What are you doing here, Noir? Diablo: From now on, do not call me "Noir." Diablo: You can call me "Diablo." Violet: You mean you got a name? Violet: Hmph. Violet: What weirdo would name you? Diablo: Are you jealous, Violet? Diablo: We are both ancient demons, Diablo: but unlike me, you don't have a name. Violet: Oh, shut up. Violet: Quit bragging and tell me why you came here. Diablo: I wanted to ask you some questions \Nconcerning the Kingdom of Raja. Diablo: Were you the one who placed a \Nmagic circle in the lake there? Violet: Huh? Violet: Why would I go to all that trouble? Violet: And why would you care about that, anyway? Diablo: I am willing to tell you, Diablo: but only under the condition that \Nyou leave that kingdom alone. Violet: No, thanks. Diablo: Why? Violet: Because that kingdom's royal \Nfamily is my favorite. Diablo: Your favorite? Violet: It was a few decades... Violet: no, it might have been a few centuries ago. Violet: They asked me for a favor. Diablo: A favor? Violet: I sensed some rather tasty emotions, Violet: so I went there purely on a whim. Violet: And what do you think the queen said to me? Diablo: I really don't care. Violet: She called me a goddess! Violet: Isn't that hilarious? Diablo: And? Violet: She wanted the power to save her kingdom, \Nso I decided to play with her a little. Violet: In that case, show me the \Ndepth of your resolve. Queen: What is this? Violet: There is immense magical power \Nstored within this tiara. Violet: If it's used up, it will \Nrefill itself in time. Violet: There seems to be something quite \Nnice buried deep beneath here. Violet: See? Queen: I thank you. Queen: And... what did you mean by "resolve"? Violet: Your resolve to play a game with me. Queen: A game? Violet: That's right. Violet: If you use that tiara, you will be cursed. Violet: What's more, that curse will be genetic, Violet: and you will pass it down \Nto future generations. Queen: To my descendants? Violet: Shouldn't that be obvious? Violet: To obtain the greatest of merits, \Nyou must pay the most terrible price! Violet: The greater your wish, the deeper \Nthe Curse Poison will eat into you. Violet: So what'll it be? Queen: If it will help me protect my people... Queen: If it will help me save my people... Queen: If it means my people can \Nlive prosperous lives, Queen: my own life is but a trifle. Queen: I'm sure all those who inherit the \Nthrone after me will feel the same. Violet: I like that look on your face! Violet: If you keep using that, you will eventually \Nbe stained the color of my magic. Violet: When that happens, I win. Violet: I will obtain a body to serve as my host, Violet: allowing me to manifest in this world. Queen: In other words, if I am not \Nfully colored, then I... Queen: Then we are the winners? Queen: I can feel its magic... its power. Violet: Keep doing your best to entertain \Nme until the end of your bloodline! Queen: Now I can save my people... Violet: One of your descendants might win the game, Violet: but that could be entertaining in itself. Violet: That's the story. Diablo: In other words, you wanted to enjoy watching \Nevery generation of her bloodline suffer? Violet: Well, I wasn't just gonna \Nhelp her for free, you know. Violet: I'm not running a charity here. Violet: So, uh... The current queen's \Nname was Towa, right? Violet: She seems like a really \Nnice girl, doesn't she? Violet: And it looks like the Curse Poison \Nhas taken to her perfectly, Violet: so my host body should be complete soon. Violet: It'll probably be... the next one after \NTowa, or the next one after that. Diablo: So you made a formal contract? Diablo: It didn't seem that way to me. Diablo: Did you not just have one of your minions Diablo: create a problem that would \Nforce her to use the tiara? Violet: What is this? Are you insulting me? Diablo: I am only speaking the truth. Diablo: Very well. Diablo: If you will leave the Kingdom of Raja alone, Diablo: I won't tell anyone what you've done. Violet: Huh? Violet: Why should I have to do as you say? Diablo: Even though I am here personally, \Nasking you ever so politely? Violet: What's polite about any of this? Diablo: Oh, I do despise resorting to \Nbarbaric means such as brute force. Violet: Yeah? Well, try me if you think you can. Violet: And you know, I've always thought \Nyou were a pain in the ass. Diablo: The feeling is mutual, I'm sure. Shion: Come on, bring it! Shion: So the big boss shows himself, eh? Violet: Have you... gotten stronger? Diablo: Worry not. Diablo: I have not used any more power \Nthan you are capable of using. Violet: Ugh, you're pissing me off! Violet: Just because you incarnated \Nand even got a name, Violet: you think you can boss me around? Diablo: You're welcome to be even \Nmore jealous if you want. Violet: Just die! Violet: Well? Violet: How'd you like the taste \Nof my Nihilistic Vanish? Violet: Are you serious?! My magic... Diablo: I let it hit me to give you a handicap, Diablo: but it seems you have reached your limit. Violet: Limit? Violet: Time's up, huh? Diablo: It appears the temporary body you made \Nfrom magicules has begun to fall apart. Violet: Hmph. Violet: This is nothing. Violet: What? You trying to interfere? Zonda: This is over, milady. Zonda: Lord Noir... no, Lord Diablo... Zonda: Would you be so kind as \Nto lay down your arms now? Violet: I can still fight! Veyron: Milady, I bring a report. Violet: I know you can tell this \Nisn't the time for that! Veyron: Lacua has taken matters into his own hands, Veyron: just as Lord Diablo said. Veyron: Raja is being attacked by \Nits neighboring country. Violet: What? Veyron: It appears Lacua instigated \Nthis with false information. Veyron: And he did something to the queen's body \Nother than just the Curse Poison. Violet: That puts a black mark on our contract. Violet: It's no fun this way. Veyron: Indeed. Veyron: It would seem that, unfortunately, \Nthe contract must be voided. Violet: Nothing I can do, I guess. Diablo: Are you done talking now? Diablo: I have no interest in your \Npersonal circumstances, Diablo: so if you will leave Raja alone, \NI will overlook this matter. Violet: That condescending tone... Violet: You really do have an awful personality. Violet: Okay, fine. Violet: I'll be the one overlooking this matter. Violet: You'd better be grateful for my kindness. Diablo: What? Diablo: You are as self-serving as ever, I see. Violet: That's what I should be saying to you. Veyron: Now, milady... Violet: Yeah, I know. Violet: By the way, who gave you the name "Diablo"? Violet: Who in the world is capable of naming you? Diablo: Someone most exalted. Violet: Uh-huh... Diablo: I will gladly tell you all about \NGreat Rimuru's glory some other time. Violet: Rimuru, huh? Violet: So long. Diablo: Imagine leaving without \Ncleaning up your mess. Diablo: She's making so much work for us. Shuna: Queen Towa, are you all right? Towa: Yes, I'm fine. Towa: I'm more concerned about Hiiro... Shuna: You can count on my brother to handle him. Benimaru: You're still good. Benimaru: Even in that form... Benimaru: You still have every bit of Hiiro's spirit! Benimaru: But... Benimaru: Come back to us, Brother! Rimuru: What's wrong? Done playing \Ntag with us already? Lacua: Keep talking! Lacua: You're just a rookie Demon Lord! Lacua: I already know that you're only borrowing Lacua: the Storm Dragon Veldora's authority! Rimuru: That's fine, but you might \Nwant to face forward. Lacua: Huh? Rimuru: He can fly, too? Rimuru: Also, does that mean... Rimuru: he's a demon? Shuna: Now, Queen Towa! Shuna: Brother Hiiro! Is he back?! Benimaru: No, I don't think he's fully back. Benimaru: Get away from here! Benimaru: If this continues, \Nhe'll just cause more damage. Benimaru: Stop, Hiiro! Rimuru: What's wrong? Can't run away any longer? Lacua: Sh-Shut up! Chikuan: Lacua! Chikuan: I'll back you up! Rimuru: So you were on his side, you quack doctor? Rimuru: No wonder I couldn't see any \Nsigns that you'd treated her. Ranga: Let me handle him! Rimuru: Okay. He's all yours! Chikuan: A mere mutt is no match for me! Rimuru: He was no match for Ranga. Rimuru: So... Lacua, was it? Rimuru: You're about to meet the same end. Rimuru: That's okay with you, right? Lacua: Don't you underestimate me, \Nyou rookie Demon Lord! Rimuru: You're done already? Rimuru: Anything you still want to say? No? Lacua: W-Wait! Just try and kill me! Lacua: My lady will not let it slide! Rimuru: Your... lady? Lacua: That's right! A mere slime \Nlike you is no match for— Violet: Hey, Lacua. Lacua: Oh! Goddess of all creation! Lacua: I'm right here! Lacua: Your faithful servant, Lacua, is right here! Violet: Shut up. Violet: Looks like you thought you \Ncould do whatever you wanted Violet: just because you incarnated and got a name. Lacua: Goodness, no! Lacua: You are mistaken! Lacua: I made Towa use a great deal of magic! Lacua: Her body will be yours in no time! Rimuru: Who is he talking to? Violet: Look, I wanted those queens to \Nchoose to give themselves to me. Violet: Who told you to take matters \Ninto your own hands? Violet: I only told you to observe them, did I not? Lacua: H-Huh? Lacua: But I thought the more she suffered, Lacua: the more pleased you would be... Violet: My fun is ruined, all because of this idiot. Lacua: I-I only hoped to gain more power Lacua: so that you would welcome me by your side... Violet: I don't need incompetent servants. Violet: Take responsibility for what you've done. Rimuru: Looks like you just got tossed aside. Lacua: W-Wait! Rimuru: I can't sit by and let anyone \Ntoy with other people's lives. Rimuru: To make sure no more lives end up ruined, Rimuru: I'm gonna finish you off right now. Lacua: Damn it all! Lacua: If I'm going to die anyway... Lacua: I'm taking you all with me! Lacua: My Nuclear Flame... Lacua: will reduce you... Lacua: and this entire country... Lacua: to a pile of ash! Lacua: Nuclear... Rimuru: Devour all, Beelzebub! Lacua: ...Flame! Rimuru: Raphael-san, report. Raphael: Notice. Raphael: The immense amount of energy \Nhas been fully absorbed. Raphael: No harm was done. Rimuru: Okay, great. Ranga: That's my master! Rimuru: Apparently, Lacua replaced all the \Narmy leaders with his own lackeys. Shion: Then these guys... Rimuru: Yep. You can kill them. Shion: Leave it to me! Hakuro: This was a bit too much for you. Gobta: Way to go, Master! Gabiru: Vortex Crash! Soei: Great Rimuru, it is over. Rimuru: Good work. Rimuru: If the remaining soldiers \Nhave no will to fight, Rimuru: you can let them go home for today. Soei: Understood. Rimuru: Now, that just leaves... Benimaru: Hiiro... Benimaru: You don't want to make your beloved \Nmaster worry any more, do you? Benimaru: Sorry, but I won't be \Nholding back from here on. Towa: Hiiro... Benimaru: Please don't die. Benimaru: Haze of Black Smoke! Shuna: Brother! Towa: Hiiro! Benimaru: He can still move? Shuna: Queen Towa! Benimaru: Hiiro! Hiiro! Benimaru: Brother! Benimaru: Brother! Hiiro: Young master... Hiiro: You've... gotten stronger. Benimaru: Not as strong as you. Benimaru: I had faith that you'd return \Nto your senses on your own. Hiiro: My soul... is not mine alone, after all. Hiiro: The price... for using this power... Towa: Hiiro! Shuna: Brother Hiiro! Rimuru: Benimaru! Use a full potion! Raphael: He is paying the price \Nfor using the Curse Orb. Raphael: The potion is ineffective. Hiiro: This is enough. Benimaru: Brother! Hiiro: Shuna... Hiiro: I always thought of you \Nas my real little sister. Shuna: Brother Hiiro... Hiiro: The others are waiting... Hiiro: just ahead... after all. Hiiro: Queen Towa... Hiiro: I'm so happy... Hiiro: to have found... Hiiro: a master worth serving... Hiiro: in the end. Towa: I won't allow it. Towa: I won't allow you to leave my side. Towa: Ugly Tiara! Towa: Give me a miracle! Towa: Goddess, give me your power! Hiiro: Q-Queen Towa? Hiiro: Queen Towa?! Hiiro: Queen Towa! Hiiro: Queen Towa! Raphael: This is the price of the wish she made. Raphael: Nothing can be done. Hiiro: She saved my life twice, and... Hiiro: I still... Hiiro: can't do anything for her? Violet: The contract had to be voided \Nbecause of my own negligence. Violet: To thank you for all the \Nentertainment you've given me, Violet: I'll splurge a little as an apology. Rimuru: What is this? Rimuru: What's happening? Raphael: Notice. Raphael: Confirmed interference by another party. Hiiro: Queen Towa? Hiiro: Queen Towa! Towa: Hiiro? Raphael: The Curse Poison has completely disappeared. Rimuru: Was this what you had \N"an idea" about, Diablo? Rimuru: You'll have to explain all this later. Diablo: With pleasure. Crowd: Cheers! Gobta: Thanks! Crowd: Yeah! Yeah! Mobuji: Rimuru! Mobuji: Thank you for all the help you've given us. Mobuji: How in the world can we ever thank you? Minister: Even if we wanted to, as you know, \Nwe have very little to offer... Rimuru: Yeah, about that... Soei: A vein of iron ore was found in a cave that \Ncollapsed in Benimaru and Hiiro's battle. Mobuji: But there is little demand for iron ore... Mobuji: There are other nations that supply it. Rimuru: Well, you can never have too much iron ore. Rimuru: We'll buy it from you. Mobuji: You mean you'll contribute to \Nthe rebuilding of our kingdom?! Minister: In that case, the surrounding nations \Nwill find it harder to mess with us! Mobuji: We couldn't possibly ask for more. Mobuji: But are you certain? Rimuru: Of course. It's give-and-take. Rimuru: Besides... Rimuru: I like Towa-san for her \Nwillingness to risk her own life Rimuru: to save someone else's. Rimuru: You all agree, right? Benimaru: Yes. Hakuro: Indeed. Shuna: Yes! Soei: No objections. Shion: Of course! Shion: We love Queen Towa and Brother Hiiro \Nas much as we love Great Rimuru! Rimuru: Thanks! Diablo: The same goes for me. Rimuru: What, you're still here? Rimuru: Well, then... Rimuru: Here's to the future of the \NKingdom of Raja and Tempest! Towa: Thank you for protecting this country, Towa: and all of us, for this long. Towa: From now on, I will stand on my own Towa: and build a future along with all of them. Towa: To the goddess who gave us the tiara. Rimuru: Wh-What the heck is this?! Rimuru: V-Veldora-kun? Rimuru: I entrusted you with looking \Nafter things here, didn't I? Veldora: It's not my fault. Veldora: Milim showed up, \Nso I just played with her a bit. Milim: That's right. I just came here to play, Milim: but it was boring because you weren't here, Milim: so I just played with Veldora a bit. Rigurd: F-Forgive us, Great Rimuru. Rigurd: We tried to stop them... Rigur: But we weren't strong enough. Rimuru: Of course you couldn't stop them. Rimuru: Just trying to is impressive enough. Rimuru: Honestly... Rimuru: I'm not getting the latest volumes \Nof your manga for a while! Veldora: What?! B-But that's too cruel! Rimuru: You deserve it. Rimuru: And you, Milim? Milim: M-Me? Frey: Let's have a nice, long talk, shall we? Rimuru: They've got guts to piss me \Noff this much. What a handful.

# Isekai Yamza: Tch. A mere Ogre mercenary dares to defy me? Yamza: All these losses, just for one deserter? Hiiro: I may be no more than an Ogre mercenary, Hiiro: but I have a village and precious \Ncomrades I must protect. Hiiro: Stopping now is not an option! Yamza: You mean those guys lying around there? Yamza: Well? Yamza: Oh? You gonna come at me? Yamza: Whoa, there! Yamza: What? Is that all you've got? Yamza: You were more trouble than you're worth. Yamza: We're outta here. Hiiro: Someone... Tell the village... Spy: What would you like to do? Towa: You mustn't move around yet. Towa: Your wounds have not yet healed. Hiiro: Where am I? Hiiro: And... who are you? Towa: I am the queen of the Kingdom of Raja. Towa: My name is Towa. Hiiro: Raja... Hiiro: Towa? Mobuji: We found you lying by a stream in \Nthe mountains and brought you here. Chikuan: You were in grave danger. Chikuan: Do you not remember? Hiiro: I see. Hiiro: It seems I am in your debt. Towa: There is no need for thanks... Towa: Hiiro. Hiiro: Hiiro? Hiiro's Subordinate: Save... him... Hiiro's Subordinate: Please... Towa: I grant you... Towa: the name "Hiiro." Towa: Your wounds were severe. \NWe had no way to heal you. Towa: I could only hope giving you a name \Nto evolve you would be enough. Towa: But... Towa: I lacked the life force to \Ngive names to all of you. Hiiro: My comrades... What happened to them? Towa: I thought that if I could just save you... Towa: Please forgive me for being so powerless. Hiiro: There's nothing you need to apologize for. Hiiro: Not when you went out of \Nyour way to care for them. Hiiro: I thank you. Hiiro: I understand now that you saved me. Hiiro: But as I am now... Mobuji: Do you intend to return to the Ogre Village? Hiiro: Huh? Chikuan: You spoke of it time and \Ntime again in your sleep. Towa: You were asleep... for ten whole days. Towa: Wait, Hiiro! GuardA: Hey! GuardB: Stop! GuardA: H-Hey! Hiiro: I need to borrow this! Hiiro: I'm sorry! Kids: Come on, this way! Kids: Wait for us! Kids: Wait up! Kids: This way! Kids: Come on! Kids: Hey, hold up! Hiiro: This is... Hiiro: what was once such a beautiful village? Hiiro: I've lost the precious comrades \Nleft to me by the village chief, Hiiro: and now my homeland... Hiiro: Damned Orcs! Hiiro: Curse you all! Mobuji: Forgive me, my queen, \Nbut it's been four days. Mobuji: It seems unlikely he will return. Chikuan: Clearly, we misjudged him. Chikuan: He was just a ruffian with \Nno concept of gratitude. Towa: No... Look! Gobta: Find him?! Gabiru: No! We've failed! Gobta: I can't even sense him! Gobta: Where the heck did that old geezer go?! Hakuro: You called? Gabiru: Oh— Gabiru: ...noooo! Hakuro: You still rely too much \Non your sense of sight. Gabiru: You're right! Gabiru: Teach us again! Yashichi: The indomitable Gabiru-san! Sukero: So tough! Kakushin: Indeed! Gobta: Ow... Gobta: Hey, where's Geld? Hakuro: He's working. Hakuro: He seemed concerned about how \Nthe job was coming along. Geld: That should do it. Gobta: Man, he's so serious. Hakuro: You'd best get serious about \Nyour training, as well. Soei: I've received word that Geld is under attack. Gobta: No way! Enemies?! Gobta: I'll go help him! Gabiru: We will go, as well! Yashichi/Sukero/Kakushin: Right! Soei: I will inform Great Rimuru \Nand our young master. Rimuru: I sent "Youm the champion" and\NDiablo out to restore peace in Falmuth... Rimuru: But was that the best idea? Rimuru: I hope they don't overdo it. Shuna: Great Rimuru! Shuna: It's unhealthy to push yourself too hard. Shuna: Why don't you take a little break? Rimuru: Good idea. Thanks, Shuna. Rimuru: Let's take a breather. Shuna: Of course. Here you go. Shuna: For you, too, Shion. Shion: Thank you. Shion: I'll gladly have some. Rimuru: Ah, that's good. Shion: Very relaxing. Rimuru: Sure is peaceful. Shuna: Yes. Shuna: I hope it will stay like \Nthis for a good, long time. Rimuru: Well said. Shion: Oh, that's right! Rimuru: What's up, Shion? Shion: I baked some of those "cookies" \Nthat you taught me a recipe for! Shion: Please have them with your tea! Rimuru: Whoa! Our peace just got shattered! Shion: Go on, dig in! Shuna: I-I forgot I was in the middle of my weaving. Shuna: If you'll excuse me... Rimuru: She's running away! Rimuru: Hold it, Shuna! Shuna: I'm sorry, Great Rimuru. Rimuru: A-An afterimage?! Shion: Come, now, Great Rimuru! Don't be shy! Text: Guoooogh Shion: Go on! Eat up! Rimuru: Just because she has the \Nskill Master Chef now... Rimuru: doesn't mean the food's \Nappearance isn't important! Shion: Please enjoy them, Great Rimuru! Rimuru: Raphael-san! Got any hints for me?! Shion: Go on! Go on! Go on! Raphael: No, I do not. Rimuru: Harsh... Shion: Go on, now! Eat up! Rimuru: H-Hang on, Shion! Rimuru: I'm sensing something in the \Ndirection of the forest! Rimuru: I should run—I mean, go check it out! Shion: Huh? Soei: Great Rimuru. Soei: Geld is under attack in the forest. Rimuru: See? I was right! Rimuru: Off I go! Rimuru: Wait, he's under attack?! Hiiro: Damned Orc remnant! Hiiro: You're targeting Tempest now?! Hiiro: Are you a spy?! Hiiro: You bastard! Geld: That horn... Hiiro: I will avenge my village! Hiiro: Ogre Flame! Geld: Did you just say "avenge"? Geld: You're from the Ogre— Soka: I don't know who you are, but— Benimaru: Brother? Benimaru: It can't be... Hiiro: You're... Benimaru: Is that you, Brother? Benimaru: You're alive? Hiiro: Young master? Hiiro: Am I dreaming? Hiiro: How are you alive? Hiiro: The village was destroyed! Benimaru: Yes, but I survived. Benimaru: I was saved, and even given a name. Benimaru: I'm called Benimaru now. Hiiro: This is no dream. Hiiro: It's too good to be a dream! Hiiro: Me, too! Hiiro: Hiiro. Hiiro: That's my name. Benimaru: Hiiro... Benimaru: I see. Benimaru: You've been named, as well. Hiiro: Yes! Hiiro: Could there be a happier coincidence? Hiiro: How could you protect the Orc \Nthat destroyed our village? Benimaru: It's a long story, Benimaru: but we've reconciled. Benimaru: This is Geld. Benimaru: He's a valuable ally of ours here in Tempest. Hiiro: An ally? Hiiro: No. If you say it's true, Hiiro: then the Orcs are no longer our enemy. Hiiro: I sincerely apologize for my indiscretion. Geld: No, it is true that we \Ndestroyed the Ogre Village. Geld: That can never be forgiven, \Nno matter how many times I apologize. SubordinateA: Captain? SubordinateB: What's going on? Hiiro: This man called Benimaru and I were \Nfriends as children in the Ogre Village. Shion: Brother? Shion: Impossible... Shion: Is it really you? Hiiro: All of you... Hiiro: And Master, too! Shuna: Brother! Kurobei: Wow, you sure grew up! Soei: It's been too long. Shuna: I can't believe you're alive. Rimuru: I see. Rimuru: So Hiiro-san is your childhood \Nfriend from the Ogre Village, huh? Benimaru: Yes. He was as an older brother to us. Hiiro: More like a ringleader, really. Rimuru: Well, it's easy to see Rimuru: that they all really adored you. Hiiro: "Adored," eh? Benimaru: We consider him our real brother. Benimaru: That broken horn is a wound \Nhe received protecting me. Rimuru: I see. So it's your badge of manhood! Shuna: He also saved me when I was \Nabout to fall off of a cliff. Shion: He got into a lot of fights \Nwith Benimaru, too. Benimaru: Yeah. I always lost, though. Hiiro: Oh, come on. Hiiro: I lost sometimes, too. Kurobei: He was the strongest one in our village. Kurobei: That's why he left home \Nto work as a mercenary. Hiiro: And I took ten others with me. Hiiro: But we weren't blessed \Nwith very good employers. Benimaru: Which country did you end \Nup working for, anyway? Hiiro: Distave. Hiiro: Demon Lord Clayman's domain. Hiiro: I thought I'd be able \Nto make some good money, Hiiro: but then I found out the Ogre Village \Nwas about to be attacked, Hiiro: so I deserted his army. Hiiro: But... Shuna: Brother Hiiro... Hiiro: No, it's useless to think about it now. Hiiro: Right now, I should just be \Nhappy to see all of you again. Hiiro: This means my comrades \Ndidn't truly die in vain. Shion: That's right! Shion: The mere fact that you're alive is a win! Hiiro: When I was nearly dead after a battle, Hiiro: my life was saved by Queen Towa \Nof the Kingdom of Raja. Hiiro: I serve her now. Shuna: And she's the one who named you? Shuna: Naming another is a risk to one's own life. Shuna: It's not something that can \Njust be done on a whim. Hiiro: Yeah. Hiiro: Raja is a very small kingdom that \Nmakes its living mining gold, Hiiro: but some time ago, they completely \Nmined out a large gold vein, Hiiro: and it's now a mere shadow of the \Nprosperous nation it once was. Hiiro: Yet even in such trying times, Hiiro: Queen Towa is giving of her own life force Hiiro: to keep her kingdom, her people, alive. Mobuji: Chikuan! How is the queen's condition? Chikuan: Not good. Chikuan: If she continues to use her magic to \Nneutralize the toxins from the mines, Chikuan: the curse will take over her whole body, Chikuan: as it did with the queens \Nwho came before her. Mobuji: That tiara... Mobuji: The royal family has the ability \Nto use the tiara's magic Mobuji: to neutralize the mine toxins in the lake, Mobuji: protecting the people from their poison. Mobuji: But... Hiiro: In exchange, the wearer absorbs \Nthe Curse Poison in the tiara? Chikuan: The queen wouldn't have lost so much of \Nher life force if she hadn't named you. Chikuan: Oh, dear. My tongue slipped. Chikuan: Still, I've tried many medicines, \Nand none worked on the Curse Poison. Minister: If we don't mine gold, Minister: we can't import enough \Nfood to feed our people. Mobuji: Yes, but we can't force the \Nqueen to risk her life further. Hiiro: What if we cultivate the \NGreat Forest of Jura? Mobuji: That forest? Hiiro: We can be self-sufficient in food. Hiiro: The people can work the fields, Hiiro: and the soldiers and I can hunt. Minister: Don't be ridiculous! Minister: You're talking about violating a forest \Nguarded by the Storm Dragon Veldora! Minister: You clearly aren't in your right mind! Mobuji: Hiiro, you might not know this since you \Nonce lived in the Great Forest of Jura, Mobuji: but there is an unspoken agreement \Namong the surrounding nations Mobuji: that the forest is inviolable. Minister: Earning the wrath of Veldora would \Nsurely have disastrous consequences. Minister: Let a sleeping god lie, as they say! Hiiro: Are you saying you're fine with letting \NQueen Towa continue to suffer alone?! Hiiro: Is that what you call being \N"in your right mind"?! Mobuji: Now, calm down. \NWe feel the same way you do. Mobuji: The previous generation \Nentrusted us with the queen. Mobuji: We will protect her at any cost. Mobuji: That is the last job we old \Nfools have been tasked with. Hiiro: Then— Soldier (Runner): Urgent report! Soldier (Runner): The army from Falmuth that has \Ninvaded the Great Forest of Jura Soldier (Runner): engaged in battle with \Na nation called Tempest Soldier (Runner): and was completely wiped out! Hiiro: Tempest? Hiiro: The nation that stopped the Orcs? Mobuji: Their military is that powerful? Soldier (Runner): They also say the \NStorm Dragon Veldora was revived Soldier (Runner): by feeding on the bodies of \Nthe dead Falmuth soldiers! Mobuji: This is exactly what I was talking about! Mobuji: Do you get it now? Mobuji: This is why the forest is inviolable! Minister: They got what they had coming. Soldier (Runner): But the leader of Tempest, Rimuru, Soldier (Runner): successfully negotiated with \Nthe newly revived Veldora Soldier (Runner): to prevent all casualties outside \NFalmuth's army before they could happen. Mobuji: What?! Hiiro: Their leader, Rimuru? Hiiro: If we tell him what's going on, \Nmaybe he'll agree to the cultivation! Mobuji: They do say his nation accepts \Nmonsters of all types. Minister: True... Hiiro: I will serve as our messenger to Tempest. Hiiro: You won't object to that now, will you? Mobuji: Very well. Minister: Do be careful. Minister: We can't have you poking at a \Nbush and flushing out a snake. Hiiro: I know that. It's a dragon I want to see. Hiiro: A snake won't do me any good. Hiiro: That's how I ended up here with these two, Hiiro: but then I raised my blade to Geld... Hiiro: no, to the people of Tempest \Nwithout even thinking. Hiiro: I apologize. Subordinates: We're very sorry! Rimuru: Well, you had your reasons. Rimuru: Don't worry about it. Rimuru: Okay, I guess I should add \Nsome more to this info dump. Hiiro: More? Rimuru: I became a Demon Lord. Rimuru: Oops! Sorry! SubordinateB: A D-Demon Lord? Shuna: That's right! Shion: He defeated Clayman and earned \Nthe approval of the other Demon Lords! Rimuru: Aw, it wasn't that big a deal... Hiiro: He defeated... Clayman?! Shion: Great Rimuru was absolutely fantastic! Hiiro: I see... Rimuru: Anyway, you said you wanted \Npermission to cultivate the forest? Rimuru: Hey, Veldora. Rimuru: Is entry into the forest \Nreally forbidden? Why? Veldora: I dunno. Rimuru: You heard him. SubordinateA: Vel... SubordinateB: ...dora? Rimuru: Oh, I guess I forgot to introduce you. Rimuru: This is my friend, Veldora-kun. Rimuru: Go on, say hello. Veldora: I am the Storm Dragon Veldora. Veldora: As long as you don't make a lot of noise, \Nyou can enter the forest all you want. Hiiro: Great... Veldora? Rimuru: Uh, yeah, well... Rimuru: You've got permission now, \Nso you don't need to worry about— Milim: I want in on this, too! Rimuru: Milim?! Milim: You're having a banquet today, right? Milim: Why didn't you tell me?! Rimuru: It's not a banquet. \NThere's just a messenger here. Milim: I know it's a banquet! You're drinking! Milim: How could you not invite me?! That's so cold! Rimuru: Hey! Milim: I can't let this slide \Njust 'cause we're besties! Milim: Right, Veldora?! Veldora: What?! This is a banquet?! Veldora: You didn't save any for me! Rimuru: I told you, we have a messenger visiting! SubordinateA: Milim? That Milim? SubordinateB: Nah, couldn't be... Rimuru: The banquet comes after! Milim: See?! It is a banquet! Hiiro: Rimuru! Rimuru: Come on, just calm down a little. Rimuru: Yes? Hiiro: I wish to make a formal request of the leader Hiiro: of the Jura Tempest Federation, \NRimuru Tempest. Hiiro: If nothing is done, \Nthe Kingdom of Raja will fall. Hiiro: I want to save Queen Towa, who saved my life, Hiiro: and the citizens she treasures so deeply. Hiiro: I beg you, for the good \Nof Raja, lend me your aid! Benimaru: Great Rimuru, I make the same request of you. Shuna: Me, too. Rimuru: Hey, come on, you guys. Raise your heads. Rimuru: You don't have to beg. Of course I'll help. Rimuru: Towa-san seems to really \Ncare about her people, Rimuru: and I'd like to see this Kingdom of Raja. Rimuru: Is it okay if I visit her to \Nwish her well in her recovery? Hiiro: Of course! Benimaru: Great Rimuru... Benimaru: Thank you. ShunaShionHakuKuroSoei: Thank you. Hiiro: I thank you for your kindness. Hiiro: Be well, Master. Hakuro: I'll train you again sometime. Hiiro: Please go easy on me when you do. Kurobei: Come see us again soon. Hiiro: Yeah, I will. Rimuru: Okay, we're off to the Kingdom of Raja. Rimuru: Let's go! Gabiru: Take care! Kakushin?: Safe travels! Gobta: Bring us some cool stuff back! Yashichi?: We await your return! Hiiro: It's within sight now. \NThat's the Kingdom of Raja. Shuna: It's such a beautiful country! SubordinateA: Thank you! SubordinateA: But it does have far less \Nvitality than it used to... SubordinateA: F-Forgive me. Shion: That was a good rumble. Shion: I had a feeling this might happen, so... Shion: Here! Rimuru: Wh-What happened? Rimuru: Ranga, follow them! Hiiro: This is our prime minister, \NMobuji, and our minister. Hiiro: That is the leader of the \NJura Tempest Federation, Hiiro: Rimuru Tempest. Mobuji: Goodness! We have little to \Noffer in the way of hospitality, Mobuji: but allow me to welcome you on \Nbehalf of the Kingdom of Raja. Minister: Thank you for coming all this way. Minister: So... I heard that you were a \Nmonster... specifically, a slime... Rimuru: Oh... Rimuru: You mean this? Rimuru: Is it easier for you to \Ntalk to me in this form? Minister: P-Please forgive my indiscretion! Minister: I didn't realize you had assumed \Nthat form for our benefit! Minister: Please return to the way you were! Rimuru: Really? Minister/Mobuji: Yes! Rimuru: Okay. Hiiro: How is Queen Towa? Mobuji: She's sleeping. Mobuji: Chikuan is with her. Hiiro: Then I'll give my report here first. Hiiro: The Storm Dragon Veldora \Nhas granted us permission Hiiro: to cultivate the Great Forest of Jura. Mobuji: What?! Minister: You met him?! Hiiro: Rimuru introduced me to him. Rimuru: It's really not that big a deal. Rimuru: Just make sure you don't get too greedy. Mobuji: Yes, of course! Minister: Thank you so much! Minister: I'm sure everyone will be thrilled! Minister: But a large-scale cultivation effort \Nwill require the aid of specialists. Minister: It won't be eas— Ramiris: No need to worry about that! Rimuru: I know that voice. Minister: Wh-What's going on?! Rimuru: Oh, don't worry. It's okay. Rimuru: That's a friend of mine. Rimuru: Treyni-san? What are you doing here? Mobuji: Treyni? Mobuji: You mean... the Dryad?! Minister: I-It can't be! Minister: I never thought I would \Nsee you in all my days! Minister/Mobuji: We are so blessed! So blessed! Minister: I can now die happy. Mobuji: I feel like I'll live longer now. Ramiris: Hey! You two! Ramiris: You're not gonna tell me \Nyou can't see me, are you?! Minister: We're trying to enjoy the moment here! Ramiris: What?! Mobuji: You're making too much noise! Mobuji: Can't you save this for later? Ramiris: Hey, Rimuru! Ramiris: Tell them who I am! Rimuru: U-Um, this is... Treyni: She is our ruler, the Queen of \NSpirits, and a Demon Lord... Ramiris: The Great Ramiris! Minister/Mobuji: A D-Demon Lord?! Ramiris: That means I'm more important than Treyni! Ramiris: Got it?! Minister/Mobuji: Forgive us! Minister: The great Veldora, the great \NTreyni, and a Demon Lord... Hiiro: The leader Rimuru himself Hiiro: has been formally acknowledged \Nas a Demon Lord, as well. Minister: Oh, my... Treyni: I'd like to get straight to the point. Treyni: I understand the dire situation Raja is in. Treyni: Cultivation is important, but you \Nshould also be prepared to farm. Mobuji: Well said! Minister: I see! Yes, of course! Rimuru: Treyni-san really can show up anywhere. Treyni: Let us first improve your waste collection \Nto produce better fertilizer. Rimuru: Well, I think we can safely \Nleave the farming to her. Minister: Ah! I will assemble workers at once! Benimaru: Indeed. Treyni: You can use the leaf \Nmulch in the forest to... Chikuan: The queen has awakened. Hiiro: All right. Hiiro: Rimuru, please come and see Queen Towa. Rimuru: Sure. Hiiro: Queen Towa, I've brought the leader \Nof the Jura Tempest Federation, Hiiro: Rimuru Tempest, to see you. Towa: Thank you for traveling so far. Towa: I'm sorry to greet you in this state. Hiiro: Rimuru might be able to treat you. Rimuru: I can't ask you to \Nimmediately trust a monster Rimuru: who just showed up out of nowhere, but... Towa: I trust you. Rimuru: Really? That easily? Towa: I have no reason to doubt anyone \NHiiro has brought to me. Hiiro: Queen Towa... Rimuru: All right, then. \NMind if I take a look at you? Towa: Are you curious? Rimuru: Y-Yeah. Rimuru: I've heard whoever wears that \Ncan use immense magic power. Rimuru: I definitely sense incredible power in it. Towa: You can tell? Towa: It's because I have this tiara that I \Ncan protect my nation and its people. Rimuru: But it afflicts you with \NCurse Poison in return? Towa: All things come with a price. Raphael: Answer. Raphael: The tiara's Curse Poison cannot be removed. Raphael: Only the one who placed the \Ncurse on it can remove it. Raphael: However, so long as she \Ndoes not use the tiara, Raphael: she should gradually recover. Rimuru: I see. Raphael: Depending on the user's life force, \Nit's possible to resist the Curse Poison. Raphael: But the recovery of her life force \Nseems to be drastically delayed. Raphael: Symptomatic treatment is recommended. Raphael: Please administer honey \Nas a restorative tonic. Towa: It's delicious. Rimuru: It's special honey produced in Tempest. Rimuru: It's the best medicine there is. Rimuru: Try to have a spoonful after every meal. Towa: I can feel my body warming \Nup from the inside. Hiiro: It's true... Her color already looks better. Hiiro: It works that quickly? Rimuru: The Curse Poison won't be easy to get rid of, Rimuru: but as long as she doesn't use \Nthe tiara, she'll get better. Hiiro: Really?! Rimuru: Yeah. Towa: Thank you so much. Towa: But if I don't use this power, \Nthe toxins from the mines will... Rimuru: I'll take care of that, too. Towa: Huh? Rimuru: Can I ask you to leave that to me? Rimuru: Hundreds of years of mining are causing Rimuru: toxins from the mines to pour into this lake. Rimuru: Right, Towa-san? Towa: Yes. Towa: The lake was once filled \Nwith pure, clean water, Towa: but now, it's a lake of death. Towa: Eventually, the poison will be so strong \Nthat the air around it becomes toxic. Shuna: Great Rimuru, couldn't you remove \Nall the toxins from the mines Shuna: and restore the water in the \Nlake to complete purity? Rimuru: Yeah. Towa: Really?! Rimuru: But... hang on a minute. Rimuru: When I arrived in this country... Raphael: Notice. Raphael: The composition of this poison \Nis not found in nature. Rimuru: I analyzed the water from the waterfall, Rimuru: and something wasn't right. Hiiro: What do you mean? Rimuru: The poisons in this lake aren't \Ntoxins from gold mines. Rimuru: So that's it. Rimuru: Devour all, Beelzebub! Raphael: Notice. Raphael: The purification of the poison is complete. Rimuru: All right! Benimaru: Everyone is happy. Rimuru: Yeah. I'm glad. Shion: Of course they are! Shion: We got permission to cultivate \Nthe Great Forest of Jura, Shion: Queen Towa is on the road to recovery, Shion: and the lake was purified along with \Nthe thing that was poisoning it! Shion: And it's all thanks to Great Rimuru! Benimaru: Why are you so proud? Shion: What are you talking about, Benimaru? Shion: I am Great Rimuru's first secretary! Shion: That means Great Rimuru and \NI are of one body and mind! Benimaru: You lost me. Benimaru: Anyway, what do you think that \Nmagic circle was all about? Rimuru: It looked pretty old. Rimuru: I'd guess it was made by the same person \Nwho put the Curse Poison on the tiara. Shuna: There's a legend that says the tiara \Nwas a gift bestowed by a goddess, Shuna: but no one knows anything else about it. Rimuru: I don't know if it was a goddess or not, Rimuru: but we'll just have to ask whoever cursed it. Rimuru: Assuming they're still alive, that is. Hiiro: Rimuru! Hiiro: I can't offer much, Hiiro: but I want to express my gratitude \Nin whatever way I can. Rimuru: This is more than enough. Hiiro: There isn't much in this nation \Nthat I could give you in return, Hiiro: but someday— Rimuru: Yeah, I'll make sure you \Nrepay the favor someday. Rimuru: So for now, can we continue \Nour relationship with Raja? Rimuru: When I saw Towa-san sacrificing herself Rimuru: to protect her country and her people, Rimuru: it made me feel like I have \Nto be just as reliable. Rimuru: I want to continue to be friends \Nwith the people of this country. Rimuru: Is that okay? Hiiro: Thank you! Shion: Drink with us, Brother! Benimaru: Hey, come on. Benimaru: Shion! Shuna: Shion, you shouldn't drink too much. Rimuru: Well, I think I'll go see \Nhow Towa-san's doing. Benimaru: You're the only one who's sloshed. Shion: Yay! Great Rimuru! Rimuru: Towa-san. Rimuru: How are you feeling? Towa: Better and better, \Nthanks to the honey you gave me. Towa: I truly thank you for everything. Rimuru: Aw, it was fine. Rimuru: Benimaru and his gang asked me to help, too. Rimuru: I did it because I wanted to. Towa: I envy you, Great Rimuru. Towa: You're the leader of a nation just like me, Towa: but you're open about how you feel and \Nspend your days with your companions. Rimuru: Huh? Towa: I'm truly unfair. Towa: When I saw Hiiro risking \Nhis life for his comrades Towa: and protecting them as he fought, Towa: I thought he seemed like \Nsomeone I could trust. Towa: That if I saved him, and he joined my side... Rimuru: Towa-san... But, I mean... Towa: I know. Towa: It was calculating and selfish. Rimuru: But doesn't that go for everyone? Rimuru: We all do some internal \Ncalculation sometimes. Rimuru: I don't think being \Ncalculating is a bad thing. Towa: Huh? Rimuru: Besides, just because you named him Rimuru: doesn't mean you bound his soul to you. Rimuru: Just look at all my friends. Rimuru: They say whatever they want to me, Rimuru: and do whatever they feel like. Rimuru: With some individual variation, of course. Towa: Is... that how it works? Rimuru: Yeah, it is. Rimuru: You're just taking things too seriously. Rimuru: If you keep that up, your own sense \Nof responsibility will crush you. Rimuru: You should lighten up and be \Nmore honest about your feelings. Towa: You're very kind, Great Rimuru. Rimuru: That's what you call "calculating." Rimuru: All so we can continue \Nto get along from now on. Lacua: H-How can this be?! Lacua: They're cultivating the \NGreat Forest of Jura?! Lacua: The lake has been purified?! Lacua: What is going on? What is going on? Lacua: I don't understand. Towa: Thank you all for your hard work. Lacua: This can't be possible! It can't be... MinerA: Queen Towa, you seem well. MinerB: What a relief! Lacua: The queen has recovered?! Mobuji: Well, well, if it isn't Lacua. Lacua: M-Master Mobuji! Lacua: It's been a long time! Lacua: I've brought a variety \Nof goods for you again! Mobuji: Wonderful. Mobuji: Now, come and relieve the \Nexhaustion of your travels first. Lacua: So, ah... Lacua: The atmosphere here seems \Nto have changed somehow. Mobuji: A lot has happened in these past ten days. Mobuji: We can take our time discussing \Nthat this evening. Mobuji: Goodbye until then. Lacua: This is awful! Lacua: What in the world happened?! Lacua: How could this be?! Lacua: My plans were ruined by a \NKijin survivor and a slime?! Lacua: But fulfilling her wish was my \Nticket to elevating my status! Lacua: Damn it! Lacua: Yes... Lacua: What we need is chaos and tragedy! Rimuru: You know... Rimuru: You don't have to come back here every time. Rimuru: You can use Thought Communication \Nto report to me. Shion: That's right, second secretary. Diablo: What are you talking about, Great Rimuru? Diablo: Running to your side is \Nno trouble for me at all. Hiiro: It's been a long time \Nsince I left the village. Hiiro: Now I'm finally able to come \Nback here with all of you. Hiiro: I'm here today, alive and well, \Nthanks to you all. Hiiro: And... the young master and our \Nother friends are still alive, too. Hiiro: We sure were fired up about earning money Hiiro: to make their lives easier \Nand feed them tasty food. Hiiro: And now all of you are gone... Hiiro: I'm sorry, everyone. Hiiro: If I... If only I were... Benimaru: Great Rimuru told me you were here. Hiiro: If only I were stronger, \NI could have protected them. Benimaru: Yeah. Hiiro: If only I could have been a better leader... Benimaru: I guess so. Hiiro: I was the one being protected. Hiiro: They gave everything to keep me alive. Hiiro: If it costs my life... Hiiro: If I must give everything \NI have, next time... Hiiro: Next time, I will protect my comrades! Benimaru: Brother. Benimaru: I always liked that one-track mind of yours. Benimaru: But don't forget that you've \Ngot us and Great Rimuru, too. Hiiro: Right. SubordinateA: Captain! SubordinateA: Bad news! It's Queen Towa! Rimuru: She collapsed? Treyni: The lake suddenly became so poisoned \Nthat the air became toxic, Treyni: so she used the tiara in an \Nattempt to save her people. Rimuru: So suddenly? Rimuru: I got rid of the weird magic circle \Nthat was making the poison, though... Raphael: Yes. Raphael: It was completely removed, and all of \Nthe poison in the lake was purified. Diablo: What's this about a weird magic circle? Shion: It was at the bottom of the lake. Shion: It looked very old. Diablo: I see... Diablo: An old magic circle? SubordinateA: So the curse spread \Nthroughout her body again. SubordinateA: The honey Great Rimuru gave \Nher is keeping her alive, SubordinateA: but there's another problem... Hiiro: What is it? SubordinateA: We received word that the neighboring \Nnation's army is on the move. SubordinateA: Everyone is panicking. Shion: Great Rimuru, shouldn't you hurry to Raja? Rimuru: Yeah, but... Rimuru: I purified the lake, but it's poisoned again. Rimuru: The neighboring nation made a move \Nthe moment Towa-san collapsed... Diablo: You think it's all too \Nperfect to be coincidental. Rimuru: Exactly. Shion: I-I was just about to say that, too! Rimuru: Towa-san had exhausted a \Ngreat deal of her life force. Rimuru: Was that doctor of theirs, Chikuan, \Nreally treating her at all? Rimuru: There are too many questions. Rimuru: Soei! Soei: I am here. Rimuru: Find out why Raja is being targeted. Soei: At once. Soei: Let's go. Soka: Right. Rimuru: Shion, get everyone together. Commander: Assume counterattack formation! Soldiers: Yes, sir! Mobuji: Chikuan! Chikuan: In her current state, it will \Nbe difficult to relocate her. Chikuan: She won't last long enough to avoid \Nthe battle and remain on the run. Mobuji: Oh, no... Towa: I'm sorry, Hiiro... Towa: I couldn't... save your friends... Hiiro: Queen Towa! Hiiro: You have nothing to apologize for! Towa: You are... free to do whatever you want. Hiiro: What are you saying? Towa: I'm... sorry, Hiiro... Hiiro: There's nothing you need \Nto apologize for at all. Hiiro: Why do you have to suffer like this? Rimuru: As you can tell, we don't know who's \Npulling the strings behind all this, Rimuru: and we might be facing a battle. Rimuru: But I intend to trust Towa-san \Nand take Raja's side. Rimuru: I'd like all of you to help. Text: SIRIUS Benimaru: No objections from me. Shuna: We have Brother Hiiro, too. Shuna: We were all hoping to ask \Nfor your help, as well. Rimuru: Then start making preparations right away. All: Right! Rimuru: Veldora! Veldora: You want me to stay behind, right? Rimuru: You're the only one I can \Ntrust to look after Tempest. Veldora: I thought so. Veldora: You can rest easy in knowing \Nthat I am on the job! Diablo: Great Rimuru. Diablo: I may have an idea as to who created \Nthe Curse Poison in the tiara Diablo: and the magic circle in the lake. Rimuru: What? Diablo: If you will permit it, Diablo: I will personally negotiate \Nto have the curse undone. Rimuru: I permit it! I permit it! Rimuru: I'm counting on you, Diablo! Diablo: Thank you! Diablo: I will live up to your expectations. Hiiro: Even after Rimuru did all he could, Hiiro: the poison returns. Hiiro: And every time it does, \NQueen Towa uses the tiara's power. Hiiro: How can we overcome this? Lacua: Master Hiiro! Hiiro: Do you need something, Lacua? Lacua: I have some highly confidential \Ninformation for you. Lacua: It's about a possible way \Nto save Her Majesty's life. Hiiro: What do you mean? Tell me! Lacua: There is a secret art. Lacua: It involves transferring one's \Nsoul to another object... Lacua: or in other words, switching bodies. Hiiro: Such a method can't really exist. Lacua: I don't blame you for having your doubts. Lacua: But it does exist! Lacua: Of course, certain conditions \Nmust be met in order to do it. Lacua: It involves some degree of compatibility. Lacua: But... Lacua: Since your soul and Her Majesty's \Nare linked by the ritual of naming, Lacua: surely it will work out. Hiiro: Truly?! Lacua: Yes, yes! Lacua: However! We must also consider this! Lacua: If we were to transfer Her \NMajesty's soul into your body, Lacua: your soul would have nowhere \Nto go, and it may be lost. Lacua: If you are prepared for that possibility... Lacua: That is all I can say. Hiiro: You're saying I can give my body... \Nthe life that Queen Towa saved... to her? Hiiro: I see. Hiiro: Then, I know what I need to do. Lacua: Y-You mean... Hiiro: I will return this life to Queen Towa. Hiiro: Begin the process at once. Lacua: You would sacrifice yourself... Lacua: What a beautiful heart you have! Lacua: I am deeply moved! Hiiro: What's that? Lacua: This is called a "Curse Orb." Hiiro: Curse Orb? Lacua: One might also call it a \Nsecret treasure of power. Lacua: It's said that it can rebuild a body \Nto be stronger than it was before. Lacua: It's a highly valuable article \NI picked up in the far west, Lacua: but to ensure the success of the \Nritual for transferring souls, Lacua: I will need you to swallow it. Hiiro: All right. Hiiro: I feel strange... Lacua: It just takes a bit of time for \Nyour body to accept the orb. Lacua: Now, let us relocate to a place \Nwhere no one will interfere. Rimuru: Everyone ready? All: Yes! Rimuru: Okay, I'll transport us now. Mobuji: Oh, Rimuru! Rimuru: Mobuji-san, Minister. Mobuji: We can't find Her Majesty! Rimuru: What?! SubordinateA: Our captain is also missing. Mobuji: Where have they gone at a time like this? Rimuru: Ranga. Ranga: Yes, Master! Lacua: We should be able to conduct \Nthe ritual in peace here. Lacua: Now, place Her Majesty up there. Hiiro: Queen Towa, you can rest at ease. Mobuji: Why would Hiiro and the queen \Ncome to a place like this? Soei: Great Rimuru, may I? Rimuru: Soei, what is it? Soei: I know why the neighboring \Ncountry is targeting Raja. Rimuru: Hang on. The prime minister \Nand minister are here. Rimuru: I'll let them hear this, too. Rimuru: Okay. Soei: The neighboring country is after a \Nlarge gold vein resting beneath Raja. Rimuru: A gold vein? Soka: That is the rumor going around \Nin the neighboring country. Soei: They are hastily preparing to \Nattack so they can claim it. SubordinateA: Uh, I don't know anything about this! SubordinateB: I don't, either! Ranga: If you're lying, you'll regret it! Mobuji: W-Wait, Ranga! They're not lying! Mobuji: It's true that large amounts of \Ngold were dug up here in the past, Mobuji: but now, you won't find any \Nbigger than my little finger! Rimuru: Ranga, these people aren't lying. Rimuru: If they had something like that, Rimuru: they wouldn't be trying to cultivate \Nthe Great Forest of Jura. Rimuru: Still... Raphael: Notice. Raphael: It is unnatural for their army to \Nmobilize at this point in time. Rimuru: That's true. Rimuru: Still, our first priority has \Nto be protecting this place. Rimuru: Minister, how big is your army? Minister: We have about 2,000. Rimuru: Assemble them right away, \Nand evacuate all civilians. Minister: But— Rimuru: Don't worry. When the fighting starts, \Nmy friends will help you. Mobuji: Minister! Minister: Y-Yes! Right away! Minister: You two! Subordinates: Yes, sir! Rimuru: Head over to help, too, Soei. Soei/Soka: Right away. Ranga: Master, I smell them. Rimuru: So they're beyond here? Lacua: Now, then, Master Hiiro... Hiiro: Yes. Towa: Hiiro? Towa: What is... Lacua: We are going to conduct a ritual to transfer \Nyour soul into Master Hiiro's body. Hiiro: You won't have to suffer anymore. Towa: What... do you mean? Hiiro: I want to return the life you gave me. Lacua: Master Hiiro is going to \Noffer up his life to save yours. Hiiro: Don't worry. Towa: No... You can't... Towa: I won't allow it... Absolutely not! Hiiro: Queen Towa! Hiiro: I'm only doing what I want to do. Towa: You can't do this! Towa: Your life doesn't belong to you alone! Towa: You have to live! Towa: Live for yourself, \Nand for your fallen comrades! Towa: And... for me... Hiiro: Queen Towa... Hiiro: Those words alone are enough. Hiiro: Begin the ritual. Hiiro: Lacua? Lacua: Bravo! Lacua: Excellent! Truly excellent! Lacua: What a sad, yet lovely, sight! Lacua: Simply beautiful! Hiiro: What? Lacua: Oh, I beg your pardon! Lacua: It was such a beautiful scene, \NI couldn't help but applaud. Lacua: When that damned slime ruined my \Nscript, it chilled me to the bone... Lacua: But look! Lacua: A magnificent recovery, \Nif I do say so myself! Lacua: Oh, how fun! I'm so happy! Lacua: Oh! And I'm sure she will \Nbe most pleased, as well! Hiiro: What the hell are you talking about?! Hiiro: What about the ritual?! Lacua: Such a ritual does not exist! Towa: You're... Lacua: A secret art that transfers souls? Lacua: As if such a convenient \Nsolution could truly exist! Hiiro: You tricked me?! Lacua: Ah, how comical! Lacua: You did indeed swallow a \Nsecret treasure of power, Lacua: and there is a secret art. Lacua: But... it's not the secret \Nart you think it is! Lacua: It is an even greater trial! Lacua: One that will surely prompt the \Nqueen to use the tiara's magic! Lacua: And then... Lacua: Once the queen's body has \Nwasted away completely... Lacua: My lady's applause will rain down upon me! Lacua: Rewards will befall me like \Nthe words of the gospel! Hiiro: You bastard! Lacua: Yes, that's it! Lacua: That rage will be the fuse \Nthat ignites your despair! Lacua: Burst, Curse Orb! Towa: Hiiro! Rimuru: Hurry! Benimaru/Shuna/Ranga: Right! Lacua: Now, remember, Master Hiiro, Lacua: while you are still aware! Lacua: Come on! Lacua: Remember the despair of seeing \Nyour village trampled! Lacua: The agony of losing your comrades! Lacua: The anger with yourself for being \Ntricked and having no power to stop it! Lacua: Marvelous! Lacua: Your rage and hatred have fueled \Nyour descent into madness! Lacua: Rampage! Destroy! Lacua: Force your beloved queen to use her power! Lacua: That will provide my lady the \Nfinest possible entertainment! Towa: Hiiro? Lacua: That's it! Go on a rampage! Lacua: How does it feel to be a Mad Ogre? Lacua: It's a good feeling to trick \Nsomeone as simple-minded as you! Lacua: It looks just like Hell! Towa: Hiiro... Lacua: Ah, Your Majesty! Lacua: Can you allow this to carry on? Lacua: You must save Master Hiiro! Towa: I have... to save him... Rimuru: Sorry we're late! Towa: Huh? Shuna: You're safe now. Benimaru: That form... What happened to you, Hiiro?! Lacua: You again?! Rimuru: Are you the one behind all this? Lacua: Curses! You're in my way at every turn! Rimuru: Hey! Benimaru: Great Rimuru! Go! Rimuru: Take care of him! Rimuru: Shuna, take care of Towa-san! Shuna: Right! Rimuru: Let's go, Ranga! Rimuru: There he is! Ranga: He will not escape! Lacua: Try some of this! Lacua: You damned slime! Soei: Great Rimuru. Rimuru: Soei! Soei: The neighboring country's \Narmy has begun to march. Soei: They will soon reach the \NKingdom of Raja's border. Rimuru: Got it! We're kinda busy over here, so... Rimuru: Can you all hear me? Rimuru: I want to keep the losses to a minimum, Rimuru: so you can defeat the enemies if you want, Rimuru: but don't kill anyone if you don't have to. Rimuru: Of course, if you have no other choice, Rimuru: put your own safety first! Rimuru: Got it? All: Got it! Diablo: Long time no see, Violet. Violet: What are you doing here, Noir? Diablo: From now on, do not call me "Noir." Diablo: You can call me "Diablo." Violet: You mean you got a name? Violet: Hmph. Violet: What weirdo would name you? Diablo: Are you jealous, Violet? Diablo: We are both ancient demons, Diablo: but unlike me, you don't have a name. Violet: Oh, shut up. Violet: Quit bragging and tell me why you came here. Diablo: I wanted to ask you some questions \Nconcerning the Kingdom of Raja. Diablo: Were you the one who placed a \Nmagic circle in the lake there? Violet: Huh? Violet: Why would I go to all that trouble? Violet: And why would you care about that, anyway? Diablo: I am willing to tell you, Diablo: but only under the condition that \Nyou leave that kingdom alone. Violet: No, thanks. Diablo: Why? Violet: Because that kingdom's royal \Nfamily is my favorite. Diablo: Your favorite? Violet: It was a few decades... Violet: no, it might have been a few centuries ago. Violet: They asked me for a favor. Diablo: A favor? Violet: I sensed some rather tasty emotions, Violet: so I went there purely on a whim. Violet: And what do you think the queen said to me? Diablo: I really don't care. Violet: She called me a goddess! Violet: Isn't that hilarious? Diablo: And? Violet: She wanted the power to save her kingdom, \Nso I decided to play with her a little. Violet: In that case, show me the \Ndepth of your resolve. Queen: What is this? Violet: There is immense magical power \Nstored within this tiara. Violet: If it's used up, it will \Nrefill itself in time. Violet: There seems to be something quite \Nnice buried deep beneath here. Violet: See? Queen: I thank you. Queen: And... what did you mean by "resolve"? Violet: Your resolve to play a game with me. Queen: A game? Violet: That's right. Violet: If you use that tiara, you will be cursed. Violet: What's more, that curse will be genetic, Violet: and you will pass it down \Nto future generations. Queen: To my descendants? Violet: Shouldn't that be obvious? Violet: To obtain the greatest of merits, \Nyou must pay the most terrible price! Violet: The greater your wish, the deeper \Nthe Curse Poison will eat into you. Violet: So what'll it be? Queen: If it will help me protect my people... Queen: If it will help me save my people... Queen: If it means my people can \Nlive prosperous lives, Queen: my own life is but a trifle. Queen: I'm sure all those who inherit the \Nthrone after me will feel the same. Violet: I like that look on your face! Violet: If you keep using that, you will eventually \Nbe stained the color of my magic. Violet: When that happens, I win. Violet: I will obtain a body to serve as my host, Violet: allowing me to manifest in this world. Queen: In other words, if I am not \Nfully colored, then I... Queen: Then we are the winners? Queen: I can feel its magic... its power. Violet: Keep doing your best to entertain \Nme until the end of your bloodline! Queen: Now I can save my people... Violet: One of your descendants might win the game, Violet: but that could be entertaining in itself. Violet: That's the story. Diablo: In other words, you wanted to enjoy watching \Nevery generation of her bloodline suffer? Violet: Well, I wasn't just gonna \Nhelp her for free, you know. Violet: I'm not running a charity here. Violet: So, uh... The current queen's \Nname was Towa, right? Violet: She seems like a really \Nnice girl, doesn't she? Violet: And it looks like the Curse Poison \Nhas taken to her perfectly, Violet: so my host body should be complete soon. Violet: It'll probably be... the next one after \NTowa, or the next one after that. Diablo: So you made a formal contract? Diablo: It didn't seem that way to me. Diablo: Did you not just have one of your minions Diablo: create a problem that would \Nforce her to use the tiara? Violet: What is this? Are you insulting me? Diablo: I am only speaking the truth. Diablo: Very well. Diablo: If you will leave the Kingdom of Raja alone, Diablo: I won't tell anyone what you've done. Violet: Huh? Violet: Why should I have to do as you say? Diablo: Even though I am here personally, \Nasking you ever so politely? Violet: What's polite about any of this? Diablo: Oh, I do despise resorting to \Nbarbaric means such as brute force. Violet: Yeah? Well, try me if you think you can. Violet: And you know, I've always thought \Nyou were a pain in the ass. Diablo: The feeling is mutual, I'm sure. Shion: Come on, bring it! Shion: So the big boss shows himself, eh? Violet: Have you... gotten stronger? Diablo: Worry not. Diablo: I have not used any more power \Nthan you are capable of using. Violet: Ugh, you're pissing me off! Violet: Just because you incarnated \Nand even got a name, Violet: you think you can boss me around? Diablo: You're welcome to be even \Nmore jealous if you want. Violet: Just die! Violet: Well? Violet: How'd you like the taste \Nof my Nihilistic Vanish? Violet: Are you serious?! My magic... Diablo: I let it hit me to give you a handicap, Diablo: but it seems you have reached your limit. Violet: Limit? Violet: Time's up, huh? Diablo: It appears the temporary body you made \Nfrom magicules has begun to fall apart. Violet: Hmph. Violet: This is nothing. Violet: What? You trying to interfere? Zonda: This is over, milady. Zonda: Lord Noir... no, Lord Diablo... Zonda: Would you be so kind as \Nto lay down your arms now? Violet: I can still fight! Veyron: Milady, I bring a report. Violet: I know you can tell this \Nisn't the time for that! Veyron: Lacua has taken matters into his own hands, Veyron: just as Lord Diablo said. Veyron: Raja is being attacked by \Nits neighboring country. Violet: What? Veyron: It appears Lacua instigated \Nthis with false information. Veyron: And he did something to the queen's body \Nother than just the Curse Poison. Violet: That puts a black mark on our contract. Violet: It's no fun this way. Veyron: Indeed. Veyron: It would seem that, unfortunately, \Nthe contract must be voided. Violet: Nothing I can do, I guess. Diablo: Are you done talking now? Diablo: I have no interest in your \Npersonal circumstances, Diablo: so if you will leave Raja alone, \NI will overlook this matter. Violet: That condescending tone... Violet: You really do have an awful personality. Violet: Okay, fine. Violet: I'll be the one overlooking this matter. Violet: You'd better be grateful for my kindness. Diablo: What? Diablo: You are as self-serving as ever, I see. Violet: That's what I should be saying to you. Veyron: Now, milady... Violet: Yeah, I know. Violet: By the way, who gave you the name "Diablo"? Violet: Who in the world is capable of naming you? Diablo: Someone most exalted. Violet: Uh-huh... Diablo: I will gladly tell you all about \NGreat Rimuru's glory some other time. Violet: Rimuru, huh? Violet: So long. Diablo: Imagine leaving without \Ncleaning up your mess. Diablo: She's making so much work for us. Shuna: Queen Towa, are you all right? Towa: Yes, I'm fine. Towa: I'm more concerned about Hiiro... Shuna: You can count on my brother to handle him. Benimaru: You're still good. Benimaru: Even in that form... Benimaru: You still have every bit of Hiiro's spirit! Benimaru: But... Benimaru: Come back to us, Brother! Rimuru: What's wrong? Done playing \Ntag with us already? Lacua: Keep talking! Lacua: You're just a rookie Demon Lord! Lacua: I already know that you're only borrowing Lacua: the Storm Dragon Veldora's authority! Rimuru: That's fine, but you might \Nwant to face forward. Lacua: Huh? Rimuru: He can fly, too? Rimuru: Also, does that mean... Rimuru: he's a demon? Shuna: Now, Queen Towa! Shuna: Brother Hiiro! Is he back?! Benimaru: No, I don't think he's fully back. Benimaru: Get away from here! Benimaru: If this continues, \Nhe'll just cause more damage. Benimaru: Stop, Hiiro! Rimuru: What's wrong? Can't run away any longer? Lacua: Sh-Shut up! Chikuan: Lacua! Chikuan: I'll back you up! Rimuru: So you were on his side, you quack doctor? Rimuru: No wonder I couldn't see any \Nsigns that you'd treated her. Ranga: Let me handle him! Rimuru: Okay. He's all yours! Chikuan: A mere mutt is no match for me! Rimuru: He was no match for Ranga. Rimuru: So... Lacua, was it? Rimuru: You're about to meet the same end. Rimuru: That's okay with you, right? Lacua: Don't you underestimate me, \Nyou rookie Demon Lord! Rimuru: You're done already? Rimuru: Anything you still want to say? No? Lacua: W-Wait! Just try and kill me! Lacua: My lady will not let it slide! Rimuru: Your... lady? Lacua: That's right! A mere slime \Nlike you is no match for— Violet: Hey, Lacua. Lacua: Oh! Goddess of all creation! Lacua: I'm right here! Lacua: Your faithful servant, Lacua, is right here! Violet: Shut up. Violet: Looks like you thought you \Ncould do whatever you wanted Violet: just because you incarnated and got a name. Lacua: Goodness, no! Lacua: You are mistaken! Lacua: I made Towa use a great deal of magic! Lacua: Her body will be yours in no time! Rimuru: Who is he talking to? Violet: Look, I wanted those queens to \Nchoose to give themselves to me. Violet: Who told you to take matters \Ninto your own hands? Violet: I only told you to observe them, did I not? Lacua: H-Huh? Lacua: But I thought the more she suffered, Lacua: the more pleased you would be... Violet: My fun is ruined, all because of this idiot. Lacua: I-I only hoped to gain more power Lacua: so that you would welcome me by your side... Violet: I don't need incompetent servants. Violet: Take responsibility for what you've done. Rimuru: Looks like you just got tossed aside. Lacua: W-Wait! Rimuru: I can't sit by and let anyone \Ntoy with other people's lives. Rimuru: To make sure no more lives end up ruined, Rimuru: I'm gonna finish you off right now. Lacua: Damn it all! Lacua: If I'm going to die anyway... Lacua: I'm taking you all with me! Lacua: My Nuclear Flame... Lacua: will reduce you... Lacua: and this entire country... Lacua: to a pile of ash! Lacua: Nuclear... Rimuru: Devour all, Beelzebub! Lacua: ...Flame! Rimuru: Raphael-san, report. Raphael: Notice. Raphael: The immense amount of energy \Nhas been fully absorbed. Raphael: No harm was done. Rimuru: Okay, great. Ranga: That's my master! Rimuru: Apparently, Lacua replaced all the \Narmy leaders with his own lackeys. Shion: Then these guys... Rimuru: Yep. You can kill them. Shion: Leave it to me! Hakuro: This was a bit too much for you. Gobta: Way to go, Master! Gabiru: Vortex Crash! Soei: Great Rimuru, it is over. Rimuru: Good work. Rimuru: If the remaining soldiers \Nhave no will to fight, Rimuru: you can let them go home for today. Soei: Understood. Rimuru: Now, that just leaves... Benimaru: Hiiro... Benimaru: You don't want to make your beloved \Nmaster worry any more, do you? Benimaru: Sorry, but I won't be \Nholding back from here on. Towa: Hiiro... Benimaru: Please don't die. Benimaru: Haze of Black Smoke! Shuna: Brother! Towa: Hiiro! Benimaru: He can still move? Shuna: Queen Towa! Benimaru: Hiiro! Hiiro! Benimaru: Brother! Benimaru: Brother! Hiiro: Young master... Hiiro: You've... gotten stronger. Benimaru: Not as strong as you. Benimaru: I had faith that you'd return \Nto your senses on your own. Hiiro: My soul... is not mine alone, after all. Hiiro: The price... for using this power... Towa: Hiiro! Shuna: Brother Hiiro! Rimuru: Benimaru! Use a full potion! Raphael: He is paying the price \Nfor using the Curse Orb. Raphael: The potion is ineffective. Hiiro: This is enough. Benimaru: Brother! Hiiro: Shuna... Hiiro: I always thought of you \Nas my real little sister. Shuna: Brother Hiiro... Hiiro: The others are waiting... Hiiro: just ahead... after all. Hiiro: Queen Towa... Hiiro: I'm so happy... Hiiro: to have found... Hiiro: a master worth serving... Hiiro: in the end. Towa: I won't allow it. Towa: I won't allow you to leave my side. Towa: Ugly Tiara! Towa: Give me a miracle! Towa: Goddess, give me your power! Hiiro: Q-Queen Towa? Hiiro: Queen Towa?! Hiiro: Queen Towa! Hiiro: Queen Towa! Raphael: This is the price of the wish she made. Raphael: Nothing can be done. Hiiro: She saved my life twice, and... Hiiro: I still... Hiiro: can't do anything for her? Violet: The contract had to be voided \Nbecause of my own negligence. Violet: To thank you for all the \Nentertainment you've given me, Violet: I'll splurge a little as an apology. Rimuru: What is this? Rimuru: What's happening? Raphael: Notice. Raphael: Confirmed interference by another party. Hiiro: Queen Towa? Hiiro: Queen Towa! Towa: Hiiro? Raphael: The Curse Poison has completely disappeared. Rimuru: Was this what you had \N"an idea" about, Diablo? Rimuru: You'll have to explain all this later. Diablo: With pleasure. Crowd: Cheers! Gobta: Thanks! Crowd: Yeah! Yeah! Mobuji: Rimuru! Mobuji: Thank you for all the help you've given us. Mobuji: How in the world can we ever thank you? Minister: Even if we wanted to, as you know, \Nwe have very little to offer... Rimuru: Yeah, about that... Soei: A vein of iron ore was found in a cave that \Ncollapsed in Benimaru and Hiiro's battle. Mobuji: But there is little demand for iron ore... Mobuji: There are other nations that supply it. Rimuru: Well, you can never have too much iron ore. Rimuru: We'll buy it from you. Mobuji: You mean you'll contribute to \Nthe rebuilding of our kingdom?! Minister: In that case, the surrounding nations \Nwill find it harder to mess with us! Mobuji: We couldn't possibly ask for more. Mobuji: But are you certain? Rimuru: Of course. It's give-and-take. Rimuru: Besides... Rimuru: I like Towa-san for her \Nwillingness to risk her own life Rimuru: to save someone else's. Rimuru: You all agree, right? Benimaru: Yes. Hakuro: Indeed. Shuna: Yes! Soei: No objections. Shion: Of course! Shion: We love Queen Towa and Brother Hiiro \Nas much as we love Great Rimuru! Rimuru: Thanks! Diablo: The same goes for me. Rimuru: What, you're still here? Rimuru: Well, then... Rimuru: Here's to the future of the \NKingdom of Raja and Tempest! Towa: Thank you for protecting this country, Towa: and all of us, for this long. Towa: From now on, I will stand on my own Towa: and build a future along with all of them. Towa: To the goddess who gave us the tiara. Rimuru: Wh-What the heck is this?! Rimuru: V-Veldora-kun? Rimuru: I entrusted you with looking \Nafter things here, didn't I? Veldora: It's not my fault. Veldora: Milim showed up, \Nso I just played with her a bit. Milim: That's right. I just came here to play, Milim: but it was boring because you weren't here, Milim: so I just played with Veldora a bit. Rigurd: F-Forgive us, Great Rimuru. Rigurd: We tried to stop them... Rigur: But we weren't strong enough. Rimuru: Of course you couldn't stop them. Rimuru: Just trying to is impressive enough. Rimuru: Honestly... Rimuru: I'm not getting the latest volumes \Nof your manga for a while! Veldora: What?! B-But that's too cruel! Rimuru: You deserve it. Rimuru: And you, Milim? Milim: M-Me? Frey: Let's have a nice, long talk, shall we? Rimuru: They've got guts to piss me \Noff this much. What a handful.
