SIGN    That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime     Visions of Coleus SIGN    To Coleus [02:00] Rimuru     One day, when I had just a few days left     as a teacher at Freedom Academy... [02:04] Rimuru     I was summoned out of the blue by Yuuki. [02:07] Yuuki     You seem to have     a lot of time on your hands. [02:10] Rimuru     No, I'm very busy. [02:11] Rimuru     I need to get ready     to head back to Tempest, too. [02:14] Yuuki     But you're free over     summer break, aren't you? [02:16] Rimuru     I just said I have to get ready to go home! [02:18] Yuuki     See, the thing is, [02:20] Yuuki     there are big problems     in the Kingdom of Coleus right now. [02:23] Rimuru     I told you... [02:26] Rimuru     Fine, I'll listen, but that's all. [02:28] Rimuru     Where's the Kingdom of Coleus? [02:30] Yuuki     Between the Kingdom of Engrassia     and the Holy Empire Lubelius. SIGN    Kusha Mountains SIGN    Sealed Cave SIGN    Lake Siss SIGN    Canaat Mountains SIGN    Armed Nation     of Dwargon SIGN    Tempest SIGN    Winged Nation     of Fulbrosia SIGN    Barren Lands SIGN    Holy Empire     Lubelius SIGN    Kingdom     of Coleus SIGN    Kingdom of Engrassia SIGN    The Western Provinces SIGN    Kingdom of     Shiltrozzo SIGN    Kingdom of Falmuth SIGN    Kingdom of     Blumund SIGN    Sorcerous Dynasty of Thalion [02:35] Yuuki     To put it simply, they're dealing     with a battle for succession. [02:39] Yuuki     The fight is between the older brother,     Crown Prince Souther Coleus, [02:43] Yuuki     and his younger brother, the son     of a concubine, Prince Aslan Coleus. [02:48] Yuuki     Under normal circumstances,     it wouldn't even be a contest, [02:51] Yuuki     but that's where there's a problem. [02:52] Rimuru     And what is the problem? [02:55] Yuuki     I'm not sure I can tell someone who     won't promise to help, even if it's you... [03:00] Rimuru     Oh, okay. I guess that's the end of— [03:02] Yuuki     Really?! [03:03] Yuuki     It's so reassuring to hear you say that! [03:05] Rimuru     Eh? [03:06] Yuuki     The thing is, Prince Aslan     is an A-rank adventurer! [03:10] Rimuru     Huh?! [03:11] Yuuki     He's a great man known far and wide     as the Hero of the Blistering Sands! [03:14] Yuuki     He's someone even our     Freedom Union can't overlook! [03:18] Rimuru     I haven't said that I'm going to... [03:20] Yuuki     But you will, won't you? [03:22] Yuuki     Since you so generously offered to help, [03:25] Yuuki     of course I'll give you all     the information I have! [03:28] Rimuru     This little... [03:31] Rimuru     For now, how about you just     tell me what's going on? [03:36] Yuuki     Prince Aslan's charisma is the real deal. [03:39] Yuuki     He won over the Kingdom     of Coleus's guildmaster [03:42] Yuuki     and led the guild in a rebellion. [03:45] Yuuki     It's now under Prince Aslan's jurisdiction, [03:47] Yuuki     and it's declared independence     from the guild HQ. [03:49] Rimuru     How'd the guilds in     the surrounding nations take that? [03:52] Yuuki     They're monitoring things. [03:53] Yuuki     But if they allow it, it could     endanger public trust in HQ. [03:57] Rimuru     Can't HQ intervene directly? [04:00] Yuuki     They can't. [04:01] Yuuki     The Kingdom of Coleus is part     of a larger council of nations, [04:04] Yuuki     so if they're told not to interfere,     they can't force it. [04:07] Rimuru     Then why don't they order the surrounding     guilds to halt distribution of goods? [04:11] Yuuki     The Kingdom of Coleus     isn't super keen on diplomacy. [04:14] Yuuki     They already keep trade to a minimum. [04:17] Rimuru     It seems like they have no options. [04:19] Rimuru     What do they expect me to do? [04:21] Yuuki     They believe the only way to resolve this [04:23] Yuuki     would be to sneak into the Kingdom     of Coleus in a covert operation. [04:27] Rimuru     If you're talking about     assassinating Prince Aslan, [04:31] Rimuru     you know I'm not gonna do it. [04:34] Yuuki     I wouldn't dump     a dirty job like that on you. [04:38] Yuuki     What I'm requesting is that you win     the support of an adventurer named Paulo. [04:42] Yuuki     He's currently being considered     for promotion to rank A. [04:45] Rimuru     Uh-huh. [04:46] Yuuki     I'd like you to work with Paulo     to find out what the deal is on both sides. [04:51] Rimuru     So just gathering intel? [04:52] Yuuki     Anyone doing an investigation like     this alone would be conspicuous, right? [04:56] Yuuki     And an A-ranker is famous     enough to draw suspicion, [04:59] Yuuki     so someone who's capable     but wouldn't stand out is ideal. [05:02] Rimuru     And what about this Paulo guy? [05:04] Yuuki     He's a young man     who just left the countryside, [05:07] Yuuki     so he wouldn't be able to negotiate     with nobles or anything. [05:10] Yuuki     I was thinking of getting him     to infiltrate the Aslan faction. [05:13] Rimuru     Which means you want me to infiltrate     the Crown Prince Souther faction, huh? [05:18] Yuuki     Even if you just learn their reputations     and what rumors are out there, [05:21] Yuuki     the knowledge can be used to     determine which side we should back. [05:25] Rimuru     So in other words, you'd consider backing     Prince Aslan, depending on what's going on? [05:30] Yuuki     Exactly. [05:31] Yuuki     Intel-gathering should be     a piece of cake for you, right? [05:35] Rimuru     Well, I do like spy movies and stuff... [05:38] Yuuki     So you'll do it?! [05:39] Rimuru     Whoa! I can't make     a decision like this so easily! [05:42] Rimuru     I'm thinking about it! [05:44] Yuuki     Oh? [05:46] Yuuki     Come on, Rimuru-san. [05:48] Yuuki     Please help me out. [05:50] Yuuki     Okay? Okay? [05:51] Rimuru     You never give up, do you? [05:53] Rimuru     I'm still thinking about it. [05:55] Tiss     Chairman? What brings you here? [05:59] Yuuki     It seems Rimuru-sensei is heading     out on a little trip tomorrow. [06:02] Yuuki     We're discussing that. [06:04] Tiss     Really? Where will you be going? [06:07] Rimuru     Huh? [06:08] Rimuru     O-Oh, you know,     just wandering around aimlessly... [06:12] Jeff     In that case, might I recommend     the Kingdom of Coleus? [06:17] Jeff     It's regarded as a hot country     because it's near a desert, [06:21] Jeff     but it's cool at night,     so it's famous among the nobility [06:23] Jeff     as a place to escape the summer heat. [06:26] Rimuru     O-Oh, is that right? [06:29] Jeff     I would be glad to write     a letter of introduction for you. [06:32] Rimuru     U-Uh... [06:40] Rimuru     Please do. [06:42] Jeff     Marquis Amadi of the Kingdom     of Coleus will surely accommodate you. [06:47] Jeff     And what name shall I give for you? [06:50] Rimuru     Huh? [06:53] Jeff     Oh? Feigning ignorance, are we? [06:55] Jeff     Do you intend to carry out a undercover     investigation under the name "Rimuru"? [06:59] Rimuru     Huh?! [07:00] Yuuki     Nothing gets past you, eh? [07:02] Yuuki     How'd you know? [07:04] Jeff     I previously looked     into Rimuru-sensei's origins, [07:08] Jeff     but even my most talented     men could find nothing [07:11] Jeff     beyond his exploits     in the Kingdom of Blumund. [07:14] Jeff     But they say a nation of monsters arose in     the Great Forest of Jura at the same time. [07:19] Jeff     One cannot be expected     to view this as mere coincidence. [07:21] Jeff     Wouldn't you agree? [07:23] Rimuru     Y-You're pretty sharp... [07:26] Jeff     That is exactly the problem with you! [07:29] Jeff     You should have pretended     you knew nothing of that! [07:32] Jeff     But perhaps that is just     what makes you so great. [07:37] Rimuru     Huh? [07:39] Rimuru     But I thought you hated me... [07:41] Jeff     Hmph. [07:42] Jeff     I could never hate someone     who saved my dear younger sister. [07:46] Jeff     Regardless, my point is     that you leave yourself too open. [07:49] Rimuru     I'll be more careful from now on. [07:52] Jeff     Indeed. Please do that. [07:55] Jeff     An investigation at this level     is simple, even for me. [07:58] Jeff     Do keep that in mind. [08:01] Jeff     So? What alias will you go by? [08:06] Rimuru     Satoru. [08:08] Jeff     Satoru? [08:10] Jeff     Hm... Very well. I will refrain from prying. [08:14] Jeff     Here. I've completed your     letter of introduction. [08:17] Rimuru     Thank you. [08:18] Jeff     Understand this. [08:20] Jeff     The one I am introducing     is a teacher named Rimuru. [08:23] Rimuru     Not the alias? [08:25] Jeff     Naturally. [08:26] Jeff     What an unknown individual named     Satoru does is of no concern to us. [08:33] Rimuru     Understood. [08:35] Rimuru     I'll be Satoru when I'm over there. [08:40] Paulo     Grandmaster! [08:41] Paulo     Thank you for taking the time     to come here just for me! [08:47] Yuuki     Of course I would, Paulo. [08:48] Yuuki     You got excellent scores     on the rank promotion exam. [08:52] Paulo     Oh... Thank you! [08:54] Yuuki     But I have to wonder     how you'd fare in actual battle. [08:57] Paulo     Huh? Actual... battle? [09:00] Paulo     And who's that? [09:02] Yuuki     Oh, this is Rimuru-san. [09:04] Yuuki     He's an adventurer ranked B+, [09:06] Yuuki     and I've asked him to provide     support in your mission. [09:10] Paulo     I'm Paulo. [09:11] Paulo     Despite appearances, I'm ranked A-     in the subjugation division. [09:14] Paulo     I'm undergoing my third exam now. [09:16] Rimuru     Um, I'm Rimuru. [09:18] Yuuki     His skills are real. You can trust in that. [09:21] Paulo     Hey, if you approve of him, [09:23] Paulo     I've got no reason to doubt his skills. [09:26] Paulo     So tell me what this job's all about. [09:29] Yuuki     Of course. [09:31] Rimuru     Should we be talking about this here? [09:34] Great Sage     Soundproofing magic is in place. SIGN    Soundproofing SIGN    Soundproofing [09:37] Rimuru     Soundproofing magic? SIGN    Notice [09:38] Great Sage     Notice. [09:39] Great Sage     It is elemental magic called Airflow Shut. SIGN    Elemental Magic     Airflow Shut [09:42] Great Sage     The caster is the individual     behind the counter. [09:46] Rimuru     I see. [09:48] Paulo     I gotcha! [09:50] Paulo     So I just gotta find out what     this Aslan guy's up to, right? [09:53] Yuuki     Yes, but remember that he's royalty. [09:56] Yuuki     You'll need to treat him with more respect. [09:59] Paulo     O-Oh, yeah! Got it, Yuuki! [10:02] Rimuru     Can he really handle this? [10:05] Yuuki     Rimuru-san, you see what Paulo's like. [10:08] Yuuki     Could you give him some advice? [10:09] Rimuru     S-Sure... [10:11] Paulo     Your name's Rimuru, right? [10:12] Paulo     Glad to be working with ya! [10:14] Rimuru     I'm just a support role here, right? [10:17] Yuuki     What are you talking about? [10:18] Yuuki     You're in charge of making a plan. [10:20] Rimuru     Whoa, whoa, whoa! [10:21] Rimuru     Shouldn't Paulo be the one taking the lead?! [10:24] Paulo     Hey, Rimuru, [10:25] Paulo     I'm not so good at thinkin' about     that detailed stuff. [10:28] Paulo     I'll follow your orders. [10:30] Paulo     You can just help me get to rank A! [10:33] Rimuru     He's acting way too chummy. [10:35] Rimuru     I just got handed all     the responsibility somehow. [10:38] Rimuru     Well, I guess it'll all work out... [10:42] Rimuru     Or so I thought, but... [10:47] Paulo     Hey, pretty nice inn here! [10:50] Rimuru     We're paying separately, got it? [10:52] Paulo     Now, hang on! [10:53] Paulo     Didn't Yuuki ask you to take care of me? [10:57] Rimuru     He didn't mean financially! [10:59] Paulo     I ain't braggin', but I'm flat broke! [11:03] Rimuru     Are you serious?! [11:04] Rimuru     How can a top adventurer     at rank A- have no money?! [11:09] Paulo     Yeah, I got a little carried away     in these big cities in Engrassia, [11:13] Paulo     and I used up all my money. [11:15] Rimuru     You piece of... [11:26] Rimuru     We're getting to the Kingdom of Coleus earlier     than expected thanks to you, Ranga. [11:31] Ranga     You honor me with your praise, Master! [11:35] Rimuru     This doesn't feel much like a trade route. [11:38] Rimuru     So if we run into any bandits     or monsters, we're on our own? [11:43] Paulo     I am Bare-Handed Paulo! [11:46] Paulo     If you value your life,     shut up and get outta here! [11:48] Ranga     Seems he intends to fight bare-handed. [11:51] Rimuru     That's fine if it's     bandits we're up against. [11:54] Rimuru     But... [11:56] Great Sage     Notice. [11:57] Great Sage     Poison Lizard. Rank is B+,     same as an Evil Centipede. [12:01] Great Sage     However, highly acidic     poison surrounds its body, [12:05] Great Sage     which may splatter     if physical attacks are used. [12:08] Rimuru     Hey, Paulo-san! Wait! [12:09] Paulo     Don't worry! I'll show ya how strong I am! [12:14] Paulo     Knuckle Crush! [12:19] Paulo     My eyes! My face is on fire! [12:28] Paulo     Wh-What just... [12:30] Rimuru     Sit. [12:31] Paulo     H-Hey, Rimuru! Thanks for the save! [12:34] Rimuru     Just sit! [12:37] Ranga     My master gave you an order. [12:40] Rimuru     Listen when I speak to you,     and don't be reckless. [12:43] Rimuru     Know what you can do, and do it right! [12:45] Paulo     Y-Yes, sir. [12:49] Paulo     I'm best with martial arts     and stick weapons. [12:52] Rimuru     So use a weapon, then. [12:54] Paulo     Well, the wooden staff I was using broke. [12:56] Rimuru     So buy a new one! [12:58] Paulo     My fists are all I need! [13:01] Rimuru     Yeah, that's how you got hurt earlier. [13:05] Rimuru     Okay, look. I'm doing you a huge favor. [13:14] Rimuru     Here. [13:17] Paulo     Awesome! This thing's awesome! [13:19] Rimuru     And hold on to this, too. [13:22] Rimuru     Use it with care. [13:24] Paulo     Got it, Rimuru! No, Mr. Rimuru! [13:27] Rimuru     And that's how I got Paulo to like me... [13:31] Rimuru     a little too much. [13:36] Ranga     It's coming into view, Master! [13:40] Rimuru     So that's the capital of Coleus, Herbaria? [13:52] Chiffon     My sister is deeply indebted to you. [13:55] Rimuru     Your sister? Oh! [13:58] Rimuru     This is Ulamuth-san's sister? [14:00] Rimuru     Which means she's also Jeff-sensei's sister?! [14:03] Rimuru     Maybe he sent me here because he sensed     trouble brewing in the Kingdom of Coleus. [14:08] Rimuru     Sheesh... That's the thing about nobles. [14:11] Chiffon     My name is Chiffon Amadi. [14:14] Chiffon     I am the younger sister of Count Jeff Segal, [14:16] Chiffon     and first wife to my husband, Barack Amadi. [14:20] Paulo     I'm Paulo! [14:22] Paulo     Despite appearances,     I'm an adventurer ranked A-! [14:25] Chiffon     Well, that certainly is wonderful. [14:28] Chiffon     Please allow us to show     you our finest hospitality. [14:31] Paulo     Sure! [14:32] Chiffon     Escort our guest. [14:36] Paulo     Huh? [14:38] Paulo     Huh? What?! [14:40] Chiffon     My husband is waiting.     Right this way, please. [14:47] Rimuru     So... should I call you Marquis Amadi? [14:50] Barack     You may call me Barack. [14:53] Barack     My wife is indebted to you,     and thus I am, as well. [14:57] Barack     No need for reservations. [14:59] Rimuru     Um, what happened to Paulo-san? [15:01] Barack     He is a warrior, but he is vulgar. [15:04] Barack     I will provide him lodging     because he is here with you, [15:07] Barack     but I am under no obligation     to offer him the best I have. [15:09] Chiffon     Don't worry. [15:11] Chiffon     A meal will be arranged for him. [15:13] Rimuru     Well, I guess that's fine, then. [15:17] Barack     Now, I am not a fan of mincing words. [15:19] Barack     Have you come to take Chiffon back? [15:22] Rimuru     Hm? [15:26] Rimuru     Oh, that's what you meant. [15:28] Rimuru     You thought Jeff-sensei sent me here     to take her back to him? [15:33] Chiffon     He didn't? [15:34] Chiffon     Despite how he may seem,     my brother treats his family very well. [15:38] Rimuru     No, he didn't. [15:41] Barack     In that case, it must be about the guild. [15:44] Chiffon     Our kingdom receives aid     from surrounding nations SIGN    Barren Lands SIGN    Holy Empire Lubelius SIGN    Kingdom of     Coleus SIGN    Kingdom of Engrassia SIGN    The Western Provinces SIGN    Line of Defense [15:48] Chiffon     in return for protecting     the farthest border. [15:50] Chiffon     I'm sure they don't find the current     arrangement ideal as a security guarantee. [15:55] Rimuru     You're right about that. [15:57] Rimuru     My goal here is to help determine     which side the guild should back. [16:01] Rimuru     I can't overlook Prince Aslan's     declaration of independence, [16:05] Rimuru     but depending on the circumstances,     the guild might still side with him. [16:09] Barack     From my point of view,     that would not be a welcome decision. [16:13] Chiffon     My husband is a loyal friend     of Crown Prince Souther. [16:17] Chiffon     Please be lenient with him. [16:18] Rimuru     I think that's only natural. [16:20] Rimuru     But I'm not the one who'll     be making the decision. [16:23] Rimuru     I do hope you can understand that. [16:26] Barack     Of course. [16:27] Barack     I will not interfere in your business.     In fact, I intend to help. [16:32] Barack     Let us discuss it with     Prince Souther tomorrow. [16:34] Barack     Once you've spoken with him,     I'm sure you will make the right choice. [16:39] Rimuru     I'm really not in a position to do that. [16:42] Rimuru     I'll have to decline your invitation. [16:45] Barack     I see. [16:46] Barack     That's a shame, but I won't force the issue. [16:48] Chiffon     In that case, please meet     with Princess Zenobia. [16:52] Rimuru     Princess Zenobia? [16:55] Chiffon     She is the younger sister     of Prince Aslan and Prince Souther. [16:59] Chiffon     Princess Zenobia is currently     bedridden with an illness. [17:03] Chiffon     My brother has told me     that you are renowned as a doctor. [17:07] Chiffon     He is a man who rarely gives compliments, [17:10] Chiffon     yet he said it was you who saved Ulamuth. [17:14] Chiffon     I'm sure you can find a way to cure her. [17:18] Rimuru     Well... I can't say no to that. [17:23] Paulo     Yeah, but I've never done     an investigation before. [17:27] Rimuru     Just get going. [17:28] Rimuru     Go to the guild bar or something     and just talk to people. [17:31] Rimuru     And... yeah. Just go around     griping about whatever. [17:35] Paulo     Griping? [17:36] Rimuru     Yeah. [17:37] Rimuru     Something like, "My noble friend got me here,     but now he's being too selfish." [17:42] Rimuru     Just make something up. It doesn't matter. [17:44] Paulo     I get it! [17:45] Rimuru     Okay, then get going. [17:49] Paulo     Leave it to me, Mr. Rimuru! [17:55] Rimuru     Soei, you there? [17:58] Soei     Right here. [17:59] Rimuru     Follow Paulo and listen     to every conversation he has. [18:02] Rimuru     Guard him, too. [18:04] Soei     Understood. [18:20] Rimuru     Look, I know men aren't allowed     into the inner palace, but... [18:24] Chiffon     You look lovely. [18:28] Chiffon     I'm sure it makes you feel     a bit uncomfortable, [18:31] Chiffon     but please be patient. [18:33] Gustav     Well, well, if it isn't the marchioness! [18:36] Gustav     Are you here to visit Princess Zenobia? [18:38] Chiffon     Yes, Court Physician Gustav. [18:41] Gustav     Well, isn't that nice? [18:43] Gustav     I do hope you'll stop     by my place later, as well. [18:46] Gustav     I will give you a thorough health checkup. [18:49] Chiffon     I couldn't possibly trouble you so. [18:56] Gustav     No need for reservations! [18:58] Gustav     And who is this? [19:00] Chiffon     She is called Great Rimuru. [19:02] Chiffon     She has some very uncommon medicine. [19:05] Chiffon     I selfishly asked her to bring it here in     the hopes that it might help the princess. [19:10] Gustav     Foolishness! [19:12] Gustav     The nerve of you to bring     a scammer of unknown origins in here! [19:16] Gustav     I don't like it! [19:17] Gustav     I will report this to His Majesty     and make sure he punishes you for this! [19:25] Rimuru     You're not in trouble, are you? [19:27] Chiffon     I'm just fine. Come, let's go. [19:40] Zenobia     Oh? Who might that be? [19:43] Chiffon     Oh, good. I'm glad you're awake. [19:46] Chiffon     Princess Zenobia, I've brought     someone I'd like you to meet. [19:50] Zenobia     That voice... It's Chiffon, isn't it? [19:53] Zenobia     It's unusual for you     to bring someone to meet me. [19:56] Rimuru     This princess... is blind?

Looks like there's nothing wrong. [20:56] Great Sage     No. [20:57] Great Sage     This is an unnatural result     for the state she is in. [20:59] Great Sage     As the cause is unknown, [21:01] Great Sage     I suggest drawing blood     and examining its composition. [21:10] Great Sage     Notice. [21:11] Great Sage     Here are the results of the blood test. [21:13] Great Sage     She is in a weakened state     due to extreme malnutrition.

[21:37] Rimuru     This is a universal cure. [21:39] Rimuru     Please take it after every meal. [21:41] Zenobia     I don't like bitter things. [21:44] Rimuru     This is my personal favorite treat.

[00:26] Carl     Yes. [00:27] Carl     Now we have irrefutable proof. [00:30] Soldier     Your Highness! [00:32] Soldier     Reporting! It's Princess Zenobia! [00:35] Aslan     What? What about her?

SIGN    That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime     Visions of Coleus SIGN    Great Phantom Thief Satoru [02:12] Soei     As for Prince Aslan, [02:14] Soei     I would say my odds     of defeating him are 50/50. [02:18] Rimuru     For real?! [02:19] Rimuru     I underestimated him, frankly. [02:22] Rimuru     Could Benimaru beat him? [02:24] Soei     If he could fight without restrictions. [02:26] Rimuru     Hmm... [02:28] Rimuru     What was he like as a person? [02:30] Soei     Valiant, and he looks out for his friends. [02:32] Soei     He gave me the impression of a likable     young man with the air of a champion. [02:36] Rimuru     So backing the Aslan faction     might be the right choice. [02:40] Rimuru     And how was Paulo? [02:43] Soei     He was in a pub, ordering drinks and snacks [02:46] Soei     while constantly badmouthing you. [02:48] Rimuru     Badmouthing me?! [02:51] Paulo     That smart-ass little brat! [02:54] Paulo     He works me to the bone, he's stingy... [02:56] Paulo     What kind of "master" is that?! [02:59] Rimuru     Uh-huh... [03:00] Soei     But thanks to that,     no one suspects him, at least. [03:04] Rimuru     So everything's still     going to plan, technically. [03:07] Rimuru     In that case, I'm going to     go take care of something. [03:10] Rimuru     Keep monitoring Paulo for me, all right? [03:13] Soei     Of course. [03:23] Rimuru     I was right to sneak in a body double. [03:27] Rimuru     Okay! [03:34] Rimuru     Right, so Princess Zenobia's room is... [03:45] Rimuru     Hmm, she's not here... [03:47] Rimuru     Wonder if she's eating,     or maybe in the bath? [03:50] Rimuru     Nice timing! [04:01] Ranga     Master! [04:02] Ranga     No suspicious individuals approached! [04:04] Rimuru     Okay... Good job keeping guard. [04:13] Barack     You know... [04:16] Barack     I can still see that court     physician's pissed expression. [04:19] Chiffon     Now that the princess is cured, [04:22] Chiffon     his moment of glory is over. [04:24] Servant     Boss! Boss! [04:25] Barack     What's all the yelling? [04:27] Servant     R-Reporting! [04:29] Servant     Prince Aslan is at the front door! [04:32] Chiffon     At this hour? [04:36] Barack     It must be about Rimuru. [04:39] Rimuru     Huh? [04:40] Chiffon     I see. [04:41] Chiffon     Perhaps he's here to thank Great Rimuru     for curing the princess. [04:45] Barack     He wouldn't visit the home of a member     of the opposing faction otherwise. [04:50] Barack     I'll let him in. Is that all right? [04:55] Aslan     Sorry to drop in so late at night. [04:58] Barack     It's been a long time, Prince Aslan. [05:01] Barack     I presume your sword skills remain sharp? [05:03] Aslan     Hah! [05:04] Aslan     Don't talk down to me     just because you taught me once! [05:08] Aslan     You're Rimuru, right? [05:10] Aslan     You have my thanks for saving my sister. [05:15] Aslan     The three of us siblings     got along well at one time. [05:19] Aslan     I intended to assist our brother as minister     of the military when he became king. [05:24] Aslan     But then... [05:27] Aslan     My brother, Crown Prince Souther, changed. [05:33] Aslan     Zenobia fell ill three years ago. [05:36] Aslan     Her condition only continued to worsen, [05:38] Aslan     and in the end, she even lost her eyesight. [05:41] Aslan     My brother and I were so anxious, [05:43] Aslan     but Gustav said there was     nothing we could do. [05:47] Aslan     Had it truly been an illness,     I might have considered it fate. [05:51] Barack     You believe it wasn't? [05:54] Aslan     Barack, have you met with the king recently? [05:58] Barack     No, I haven't. [06:01] Rimuru     What's this about? [06:03] Chiffon     We've kept it concealed     to ensure other countries don't find out, [06:06] Chiffon     but our king, Tedron,     is also bedridden due to illness. [06:10] Aslan     Only Gustav is allowed to see him. [06:12] Aslan     Isn't that ridiculous? [06:13] Aslan     I'm his son, and I can't even see him! [06:17] Barack     When you put it that way... [06:19] Barack     Wait, come to think of it, [06:22] Barack     why did I never find it strange     that I wasn't allowed to see the king? [06:25] Aslan     That's just it. [06:26] Aslan     The fact that senior statesmen like     yourselves didn't even find it unnatural [06:31] Aslan     is proof that this nation     is in its terminal stage. [06:35] Aslan     Are you wondering     why no one told you before now? [06:38] Aslan     Well, that's simple. [06:40] Aslan     Because it wasn't just Zenobia. [06:42] Aslan     My brother, a man worthy of admiration, [06:44] Aslan     is under Gustav's control, as well. [06:46] Barack     Wha... [06:47] Barack     You may be a prince,     but I cannot overlook that statement! [06:51] Chiffon     Do you believe Crown Prince     Souther is behind all this? [06:56] Aslan     Just think about it. [06:58] Aslan     It was three years ago [07:00] Aslan     when my sickly brother suddenly became     so strong as to be unrecognizable. [07:04] Aslan     Do you really think there's no connection? [07:07] Rimuru     Three years ago... [07:09] Rimuru     Around the same time Zenobia fell ill, then? [07:13] Aslan     No need to feel ashamed. [07:14] Aslan     That's just what you two     were fooled into believing... [07:17] Aslan     through the work of my brother's Charm. [07:20] Chiffon     Charm? You can't mean... [07:22] Aslan     Exactly. [07:24] Aslan     The technique used by vampires. [07:26] Aslan     A friend of mine from Lubelius     taught me all about vampires, [07:30] Aslan     and he has all of their unique traits. [07:32] Barack     But Crown Prince Souther     has no problem being in direct sunlight. [07:37] Aslan     Higher-ranking vampires     aren't harmed by sunlight, apparently. [07:41] Barack     Then you believe Court     Physician Gustav is a vampire, [07:44] Barack     and he made Crown Prince Souther     his underling and now controls him? [07:47] Aslan     No, [07:48] Aslan     I believe my brother was given Zeinblood     and reborn as a high-ranking vampire. [07:54] Rimuru     Zeinblood? [07:57] Aslan     My old friend, Carl, [07:59] Aslan     suspects this whole thing isn't     about some kingdom's struggle for succession, [08:03] Aslan     but that it's a plot by Demon Lord Valentine     to sabotage humanity's zone of defense. [08:10] Chiffon     A Demon Lord? [08:13] Rimuru     This is turning into something big. [08:16] Rimuru     I'd rather not go up against a Demon Lord... [08:23] Barack     I can't believe even I was being Charmed! [08:27] Aslan     Wow, Violent Break, eh? Impressive. [08:31] Rimuru     An Art? [08:32] Great Sage     Yes. [08:33] Great Sage     It appears to be an Art     that discovers and eliminates [08:36] Great Sage     foreign contaminants     by surrounding them with one's aura. [08:41] Barack     Please forgive this fool for falling so     easily into the hands of an evil being. [08:46] Chiffon     Dear... [08:48] Barack     Chiffon, take my hand. [08:57] Chiffon     So you couldn't tell us before     because we were under his Charm? [09:01] Barack     I do wish you had told us earlier. [09:04] Aslan     I couldn't until I had proof. [09:06] Barack     Then you have conclusive proof now? [09:09] Aslan     Carl has apprehended     the merchant who, evidently, [09:12] Aslan     sold Zeinblood to Gustav. [09:14] Aslan     With his testimony... [09:17] Aslan     Rimuru, thank you again. [09:20] Aslan     With your medicine,     Zenobia should escape becoming a vampire. [09:25] Barack     So the princess didn't turn     into a vampire, at least? [09:29] Barack     Crown Prince Souther always     did adore his baby sister. [09:33] Aslan     That's what I want to believe. [09:35] Aslan     In any case, our first priority is     to take out that traitor Gustav. [09:39] Barack     I, Barack, am eager to lend my strength,     meager though it may be. [09:44] Aslan     I expect nothing less. [09:46] Aslan     We'll march on the palace     as soon as preparations are complete. [09:49] Aslan     We will strike down Gustav     and rescue Zenobia.

[10:34] Souther     Aslan was making you suffer so,     and I could do nothing! [10:38] Souther     Please forgive your useless big brother. [10:41] Zenobia     No, Elder Brother. [10:43] Zenobia     You have done nothing wrong. [10:46] Rimuru     Elder Brother? So that's Souther? [10:49] Zenobia     And we can't be certain     Brother Aslan is to blame... [10:53] Souther     No, it's obvious that he is! [10:56] Souther     Gustav told me that he got     the guild on his side [10:59] Souther     to stop your medicine     from entering the kingdom! [11:02] Souther     You don't need to worry about a thing. [11:04] Souther     Just get some rest for today. [11:07] Zenobia     All right. I apologize for worrying you. [11:10] Souther     Not at all. [11:12] Rimuru     This doesn't look like what I'd heard... [11:23] Rimuru     So he was suppressing his     aura in front of his sister? [11:30] Souther     Now that Zenobia has recovered,     we needn't hold back. [11:33] Souther     Get rid of Aslan and all     those who support him. [11:36] Subordinate     Yes, Highness. [11:38] Rimuru     It's all-out war between the Aslan faction     and the Souther faction? [11:42] Rimuru     Isn't Souther the one who's     been making Zenobia suffer? [11:45] Zenobia     And who might you be? [11:47] Rimuru     Huh?! [11:52] Zenobia     Oh, are you the one     who visited me earlier today? [11:55] Zenobia     Was it... Great Rimu— [11:56] Rimuru     No! [11:57] Zenobia     Oh? Then what is your name? [12:00] Rimuru     Huh?! [12:01] Rimuru     Uh, it's... Satoru. [12:05] Zenobia     Oh, really? [12:06] Zenobia     Your name is Satoru? [12:08] Rimuru     Y-Yes. [12:12] Rimuru     She doesn't believe me? [12:14] Rimuru     All right, then... [12:16] Zenobia     My, you look adorable in that form, too! [12:20] Rimuru     Huh?! [12:21] Rimuru     Um, I'm a slime, you see... [12:23] Rimuru     And I, uh, don't know anything     about this Rimuru person... [12:26] Zenobia     You seem like such a kind, old gentleman. [12:28] Zenobia     I'll leave it at that. [12:31] Zenobia     In return, would you listen to my wish? [12:33] Rimuru     I don't get why she has to     call me "old," but... [12:35] Rimuru     Your wish? What is it? [12:38] Zenobia     I lost my eyesight, [12:41] Zenobia     but in its place, [12:42] Zenobia     I gained the power to see     the shapes of people's souls. [12:46] Zenobia     Elder Brother Souther and Brother Aslan [12:49] Zenobia     are like young boys crying out in anguish. [12:52] Zenobia     They're both very kind men. [12:55] Rimuru     Are they? [12:56] Rimuru     If that's true, [12:58] Rimuru     it's hard to believe either of them     is the bad guy here. [13:00] Zenobia     Compared to them, [13:02] Zenobia     Court Physician Gustav is terrifying. [13:05] Zenobia     Like a muddy, faint purple darkness. [13:09] Great Sage     Notice. [13:10] Great Sage     Her power is the unique skill Wisher. [13:12] Great Sage     It allows her to see the shapes of souls, [13:14] Great Sage     or in other words, people's true nature. [13:17] Rimuru     Huh... [13:18] Rimuru     So when she said "old gentleman," [13:20] Rimuru     it was because she saw what     I looked like in my previous life? [13:23] Rimuru     Then, shouldn't you... [13:24] Zenobia     I can't. [13:26] Zenobia     If I said such a thing,     it would put my brothers in danger. [13:30] Rimuru     You mean... [13:32] Zenobia     My father, the king, [13:34] Zenobia     has not come to visit me     once since I fell ill. [13:38] Zenobia     He has never cared     for the well-being of anyone but himself. [13:43] Zenobia     And Court Physician Gustav     is my father's trusted friend. [13:47] Rimuru     So you think Gustav     is acting on the king's orders? [13:51] Zenobia     Yes. [13:53] Zenobia     Hide! And conceal your presence! [13:56] Rimuru     Huh? O-Okay! [14:13] Great Sage     Notice. [14:14] Great Sage     This is illusion magic, Sleep Down. [14:16] Great Sage     It only puts the target to sleep, [14:19] Great Sage     so there appears to be no intent to kill. [14:23] Gustav     Her full recovery now would be premature. [14:26] Gustav     For his sake, as well,     I must further refine her soul. [14:31] Zenobia     Don't! [14:32] Rimuru     Eh?! [14:33] Gustav     Hm? Did something just... [14:36] Gustav     No, I must have imagined it. [14:38] Rimuru     He picked up on my presence? [14:40] Rimuru     This Gustav guy might be     stronger than I thought. [14:43] Zenobia     He is. [14:45] Zenobia     And Elder Brother's strength     was likely given to him by this man. [14:50] Rimuru     So Aslan's guess was right? [14:52] Zenobia     Which is why I want you     to save my brothers from him. [14:57] Rimuru     That's asking a lot. [14:59] Rimuru     I don't think I'm obligated to go that far. [15:06] Rimuru     Are these images... [15:12] Rimuru     Zenobia's... [15:17] Rimuru     I can't do that. [15:19] Zenobia     I see... [15:20] Rimuru     If I'm saving anyone,     it's gotta include you, too! [15:24] Zenobia     Oh! [15:25] Rimuru     I promise I'll do all I can. [15:28] Zenobia     You truly are a kind, old gentleman. [15:38] Gustav     I'll get that little girl, as well...     and make a living sacrifice of her. [15:46] Rimuru     Little girl? [15:47] Rimuru     Wait, does he mean me? [15:52] Benimaru     And what does this Gustav get out of [15:55] Benimaru     making Aslan and Souther fight each other? [15:58] Rimuru     Princess Zenobia seems to think     he's under orders from the king... [16:03] Rimuru     But what's important is stopping     the battle between the princes. [16:06] Benimaru     So when do we make our move? [16:09] Rimuru     Good question... [16:10] Great Sage     Notice. SIGN    Notice [16:11] Great Sage     I predict that something     will happen tomorrow. SIGN    I predict that something will happen tomorrow. [16:14] Rimuru     Tomorrow? That soon? [16:15] Great Sage     Yes. [16:16] Great Sage     The individual named Gustav placed     a curse on Princess Zenobia. [16:20] Great Sage     He intends to blame her     resulting poor health... [16:22] Rimuru     ...on me, huh? [16:24] Great Sage     Yes. [16:25] Great Sage     After that, even if the true     culprit is brought forward, [16:28] Great Sage     he will likely cook up a bogus     liability issue against Marquis Amadi. [16:31] Rimuru     And when the Aslan faction     reacts in opposition to that, [16:34] Rimuru     the Souther faction will be ready     and waiting to round them up. [16:39] Rimuru     Tomorrow. [16:41] Rimuru     Benimaru, I want you to stop     Prince Aslan from making a move. [16:44] Benimaru     Leave it to me. [16:46] Rimuru     Soei, I want you to keep     an eye on Barack-san. [16:49] Rimuru     I hope he'll follow my advice,     but if he doesn't, stop him by force. [16:53] Soei     Understood. [16:55] Rimuru     Ranga, you guard Marquis Amadi's household. [16:57] Rimuru     Make sure his wife and everyone     else living there are safe from harm. [17:01] Ranga     Got it! Leave it to me! [17:03] Benimaru     And what will you do, Great Rimuru? [17:06] Rimuru     Me? [17:07] Rimuru     I've got some business to attend to. [17:13] Luminous     What's going on? [17:16] Luminous     Of all people, how did     that one get involved in this? [17:19] Luminous     What a headache. [17:21] Luminous     Leaving things alone to assure nothing     unexpected happens might be wise, [17:25] Luminous     but the very fact that I've come     this far might be the key to all this. [17:31] Luminous     I suppose I'll keep an eye on things... [17:34] Luminous     but if anyone tries     to place the blame on us, [17:37] Luminous     depending on where things stand,     I'll see that they're punished. [17:44] Barack     Court Physician,     what is the meaning of this?! [17:47] Gustav     The strange medicine this girl brought here [17:50] Gustav     is the reason our princess is still asleep! [17:53] Gustav     Oh, how heartbreaking it is! [17:55] Gustav     How do you intend to take     responsibility for this?! [18:07] Rimuru     Okay. [18:08] Rimuru     Now I have an alibi. [18:14] Rimuru     Goodnight. [18:19] Zenobia     Oh! You really came! [18:22] Rimuru     Of course. I promised, didn't I? [18:33] Rimuru     Okay! [18:40] Maid A     Wha... Intruder! [18:43] Maid B     You're not an assassin targeting     the princess, are you?! [18:44] Satoru     Arcane Thread Fetters! [18:49] Satoru     Now, I'll be taking the princess. [18:51] Maid A     S-Stop! [18:52] Maid B     Insolence! Who do you think you are?! [18:56] Satoru     Just as there is no thief     who would stop when told to stop, [18:58] Satoru     what intruder would answer     when asked who he is? [19:01] Satoru     But since I'm such a     nice guy, I'll tell you. [19:04] Satoru     I'm the Great Phantom Thief Ri— [19:07] Satoru     Satoru! [19:08] Maid A     Risatoru? [19:09] Satoru     No! It's Satoru! [19:11] Satoru     Great Phantom Thief Satoru! [19:12] Satoru     Try not to get it wrong, okay?! Bye now! [19:18] Zenobia     Um, what did you mean     by "Great Phantom Thief"? [19:21] Satoru     I just went with the flow. [19:22] Zenobia     A-Ah... [19:24] Zenobia     But would it not have been     wiser to remain silent? [19:28] Satoru     Of course not! [19:30] Satoru     I gave false information     for them to spread around. [19:37] Guy     Ready? [19:38] Guy     All right. [19:45] Barack     Looks like everyone's here. [19:47] Aslan     Yeah. Let's go! [19:49] All     Yeah! [19:55] Adventurer A     Who the hell are you? [19:57] Paulo     Yo! You're not here     to get in our way, are you? [19:59] Paulo     You'll regret underestimating us! [20:03] Paulo     I dunno who you are, but I, [20:06] Paulo     formerly the Bare-Handed, and now     the Staff Master Paulo, will take you on! [20:10] Paulo     If you value your life, shut up and— [20:21] Benimaru     Did we go too far? [20:22] Soei     Well, he did say insulting     things about our general. [20:25] Soei     I just punished him a little. [20:27] Benimaru     I see. [20:28] Benimaru     No complaints from me, then. [20:29] Adventurer A     You guys have some nerve! [20:31] Adventurer B     Yo! [20:32] Adventurer B     Don't get cocky just 'cause you beat Paulo! [20:35] Aslan     Stop it, you two. [20:38] Barack     The two of you can't beat them. [20:41] Aslan     I assume you're assassins sent     by that traitor Gustav, [20:44] Aslan     but if you interfere, I'll show no mercy. [20:45] Benimaru     We aren't assassins,     but we will interfere in your plans. [20:48] Aslan     Well, I have things to do, so... [20:50] Aslan     Sorry, but I don't have time     to play with you guys! [20:57] Barack     You're the one who's been keeping     watch around my house, aren't you? [21:01] Soei     Oh? You noticed me? [21:04] Barack     You admit it?! [21:14] Adventurer A     W-Wow... [21:16] Adventurer B     There's not even room for us to jump in. [21:18] Adventurer C     That guy's strong! [21:19] Adventurer D     So's the other guy! [21:20] Adventurer D     He's fighting the unrivaled     Barack on even footing! [21:28] Benimaru     He's better than I expected. [21:30] Benimaru     I wanted to finish this     before the general showed up, [21:32] Benimaru     but a sword alone might not be enough. [21:37] Benimaru     I'd heard about him from Soei, [21:39] Benimaru     but I guess his strength truly     is the real deal. [21:41] Benimaru     I'm more annoyed that Soei     was measuring my *strength. [21:46] Aslan     What's so funny? [21:48] Benimaru     Nothing. Just happy to see     that you're so strong. [21:51] Aslan     Shut up! [22:01] Soei     You are indeed strong,     but you're no match for me. [22:04] Barack     Wh-What are you talking about?! [22:06] Barack     You're wounded all over! [22:13] Barack     Wha— [22:15] Soei     I specialize in body doubles. [22:17] Soei     I normally fight opponents     using several of them, [22:21] Soei     but out of respect for you,     I'll fight you one-on-one. [22:27] Barack     You coward... [22:31] Barack     I've... lost. [22:37] Benimaru     Your buddy just surrendered. [22:39] Benimaru     So what'll it be? [22:43] Aslan     Our fight is just getting started! [22:49] Satoru     Benimaru! Soei! [22:51] Satoru     I'm here! [24:25] Great Sage     Next time, "Purple and Roses."

[01:38] Aslan     What did you do to Zenobia?! [01:41] Great Sage     Notice. [01:42] Great Sage     Appraisal of the individual     named Zenobia is complete. [01:45] Great Sage     She is under the condition "Demon Curse." [01:47] Great Sage     It can be removed     with the unique skill Gluttony. [01:50] Great Sage     Proceed? [01:52] Rimuru     Oh, good! Yes, of course! [02:03] Zenobia     What a wonderful old gentleman. [02:05] Zenobia     I can't believe you were     able to wake me so quickly. [02:09] Satoru     Not "old gentleman,"     please. Just call me Satoru. [02:12] Zenobia     Oh, of course... Great Phantom Thief Satoru. [02:16] Benimaru     Great Phantom Thief? [02:17] Zenobia     Yes. [02:18] Zenobia     That is how he introduced himself to me. [02:21] Zenobia     His plan to kidnap me     from the castle was just splendid! [02:25] Zenobia     He is truly worthy of being     called "Great Phantom Thief"! [02:30] Aslan     Hey! [02:31] Aslan     You'd better explain this     in a way we can understand! [02:34] Satoru     Crown Prince Souther isn't a vampire at all. [02:37] Satoru     That's why he's not harmed by sunlight, [02:40] Satoru     and he doesn't need to absorb     Princess Zenobia's vitality, either. [02:44] Aslan     What?! [02:45] Aslan     Then why did my sister have to suffer?! [02:48] Zenobia     Our dear elder brother was just     as worried about me as you were. [02:53] Aslan     Then who set things up so you'd get sick?! [02:56] Satoru     Court Physician Gustav. [02:58] Souther     Is that true? [03:02] Satoru     Perfect timing. [03:04] Satoru     Soei just gave me a report about this. [03:07] Souther     Your reaction doesn't seem like an act. [03:10] Souther     So Gustav truly was the one behind all this? [03:12] Aslan     What about you, Brother? [03:14] Aslan     I was convinced that you had     fallen under Gustav's control. [03:17] Souther     Don't take me for a fool! [03:19] Souther     Although, if it was Gustav who hurt Zenobia, [03:23] Souther     I'm in no place to talk. [03:26] Zenobia     Satoru is only trying to serve     as a mediator between the two of you. [03:30] Zenobia     It was Gustav who brought all     that suffering upon me! [03:34] Souther     Right. [03:36] Souther     Perhaps I should have     just asked you personally. [03:40] Souther     But that damned Carl told me     that you were rebelling. [03:43] Aslan     Carl?! My good friend told you... [03:47] Aslan     Carl also told me     that you had taken Zeinblood. [03:51] Souther     What a laugh. [03:53] Souther     I can't believe he fooled us both. [03:57] Aslan     Where is Carl?! [03:58] Barack     Find him! Find him and capture him! [04:05] Adventurer     Up there! [04:09] Carl     Oh, what a shame! [04:11] Carl     I was so close to enjoying     an amazing battle between two fools. [04:16] Aslan     Carl! [04:17] Souther     You've got a lot of nerve     showing yourself here! [04:20] Aslan     Don't tell me... [04:21] Aslan     That man who claimed to be from Lubelius... [04:23] Aslan     You sent him, too?! [04:25] Carl     Bullseye. [04:26] Carl     I had no further use for him,     though, so I got rid of him. [04:29] Souther     Bastard! Don't think you'll     get out of this scot-free! [04:32] Carl     Heh. Bunch of small fry. [04:35] Carl     That's big talk for some fools     who aren't good for anything [04:38] Carl     but dancing on my stage! [04:41] Souther     Damn you! [04:48] Barack     Wh-What?! [04:53] Satoru     He might be tough to go up against. [04:56] Carl     Gustav! [04:57] Carl     I'm gonna kill this guy! [04:58] Carl     That won't mess up our plans, will it?! [05:01] Gustav     My goodness. [05:03] Gustav     We were ordered not to be conspicuous, [05:06] Gustav     and yet now we're forced     to take action ourselves? [05:12] Gustav     Let's finish this quickly     and conceal all the evidence. [05:16] Souther     Gustav! So you were in on this! [05:19] Gustav     You did fine work as my pawn, [05:22] Gustav     but I'll need you to return that power now. [05:28] Great Sage     Notice. [05:29] Great Sage     The volume of energy contained within the     individual named Souther has abruptly dropped. [05:33] Great Sage     Meanwhile, the volume of energy within the     individual named Gustav has greatly increased. [05:38] Rimuru     Looks like those two     are definitely of the same race. [05:42] Great Sage     Yes. Verifying possible races. [05:44] Great Sage     I would surmise that they are Archdemons. [05:46] Great Sage     Their physical manifestation gives them [05:48] Great Sage     a threat level surpassing     that of the Orc Disaster. [05:51] Satoru     Archdemons? Two of them at once? [05:54] Adventurers     Archdemons?! [05:56] Adventurers     They're monsters! [05:56] Adventurers     Run! [05:59] Zenobia     Satoru... [06:01] Satoru     Don't worry. I'll keep my promise. [06:04] Rimuru     I know what I said, but taking     on two of them at once is gonna suck. [06:09] Gustav     You can eliminate all these     insects on your own, can't you? [06:13] Carl     Of course. [06:15] Gustav     But as the sacred body is paramount     to our plan and cannot be harmed, [06:19] Gustav     I will prepare a suitable     battlefield for you. [06:21] Rimuru     Sacred body? [06:30] Aslan     Zenobia! [06:31] Great Sage     Notice.

[06:40] Rimuru     No. [06:41] Rimuru     Gustav said "sacred body." [06:43] Rimuru     I don't know his reasons,     but he won't harm Zenobia. [06:47] Rimuru     Now we only need to deal with Carl alone. [06:50] Souther     Damn you, Gustav! [06:51] Carl     I have no further use for you. [06:54] Carl     Die! [06:55] Aslan     Brother! [07:00] Souther     Aslan! [07:03] Souther     Why?! [07:04] Souther     Why did you take the hit for me?! [07:07] Carl     The lamentations     of the weak never fail to delight me. [07:11] Carl     Give me more! Even more pleasure! [07:15] Aslan     I have wished... since I was a child... [07:19] Aslan     to be the shield that protects you, [07:22] Aslan     and the sword that strikes down your foes. [07:25] Souther     Oh, Aslan... I truly— [07:29] Satoru     Okay, I need you to move. [07:30] Gustav & Carl     Huh?! [07:31] Satoru     Here. [07:37] Carl     H-Hey! What is that ridiculously     potent elixir you just gave him?! [07:41] Satoru     You're in my way here.     Drink this and get back. [07:44] Rimuru     Benimaru, Soei. You ready? [07:46] Benimaru     I've been waiting. [07:48] Soei     Ready. [07:50] Satoru     We'll take this guy down. [07:52] Satoru     You guys get to safety so     you don't get in our way. [07:55] Carl     Insolence! [08:02] Paulo     There's no way I could win this. [08:04] Paulo     We're talking about Archdemons! Two of them! [08:08] Paulo     Even ten A-rank adventurers might     or might not have a chance! [08:12] Paulo     And I'm not even A-rank... [08:18] Paulo     I wanted to be a Champion, didn't I? [08:22] Paulo     I knew I never stood a chance against him,     even if I stood on my head. [08:29] Paulo     And that stick he gave me     was obviously a unique weapon. [08:33] Paulo     He gave me something that valuable     because he trusted me, right? [08:38] Paulo     I heard he was unjustly arrested     and is being held in the castle now, [08:42] Paulo     but I bet he could beat even these demons. [08:45] (Flashback) Rimuru     Don't be reckless. [08:46] (Flashback) Rimuru     Know what you can do, and do it right! [08:49] Paulo     I'll do it! I'm gonna     do what I know I can do! [08:53] Paulo     Even if it ends in failure, [08:55] Paulo     I'm gonna do this so I can live with pride! [09:02] Gustav     Impossible! He erased Carl's magic?! [09:14] Gustav     They aren't human! They're majin! [09:17] Gustav     This is bad! This is bad! This is very bad! [09:20] Gustav     I must protect this vessel at any cost! [09:23] Gustav     For the sake of manifesting our god! [09:28] Gustav     Veil of darkest night, descend! [09:35] Gustav     Negative emotions     that are the source of all! [09:37] Gustav     Come! [09:46] Gustav     Carl, my comrade, be my sustenance! [09:59] Gustav     I can't fully control my power in this body, [10:02] Gustav     but it's more than good enough     to destroy those majin. [10:06] Gustav     Now, let us begin! [10:14] Gustav     You fool. [10:15] Gustav     You think you can get away from me? [10:18] Gustav     Dark Magic: Forbidden! [10:23] Luminous     Just stay there and watch quietly. [10:26] Luminous     Out of respect for your good     intentions in saving that girl, [10:29] Luminous     I will protect you. [10:32] Gustav     Who are you? [10:34] Luminous     I need not give my name     to small fry like you. [10:36] Gustav     What?! [10:38] Luminous     For crying out loud... [10:40] Luminous     Perhaps fighting you would be     a waste of his effort right now. [10:44] Luminous     I will play with you instead.     Consider it an honor. [10:50] Gustav     Are you a majin? [10:51] Gustav     Rather impudent     for a little girl, aren't you?! [10:58] Luminous     Weak. [10:58] Gustav     Impossible! That was my full strength! [11:01] Luminous     Not my problem. [11:07] Gustav     W-Wait, are you... a vampire?! [11:10] Gustav     And one who's stronger than me?! [11:12] Gustav     J-Just who are you?! [11:16] Luminous     You don't need to know that. [11:19] Gustav     This is not good! [11:20] Gustav     I'm about to die before     I could accomplish anything! [11:23] Gustav     I-If that happens, I... [11:32] Gustav     Out of my way! [11:38] Gustav     Our primordial god! [11:40] Gustav     Take up residence in this body,     and lend me your strength! [11:47] Luminous     He's still breathing... but what a fool. [12:06] Gustav     It worked! [12:10] Gustav     You're done for! [12:11] Gustav     I don't know who you are,     but you will regret opposing us! [12:18] Violet     Hey, Luminous. [12:19] Violet     Since I had the chance,     I thought I'd stop by to say hello. [12:22] Violet     I came here personally just to do that. [12:24] Gustav     Huh? [12:25] Gustav     Lady Violet, do you know this girl? [12:29] Gustav     Wait... Luminous? Did you say Luminous?! [12:33] Gustav     Then this is the original Demon Lord     who was said to have fallen... [12:37] Gustav     The Queen of Nightmares,     Luminous Valentine?! [12:41] Luminous     I suspected it was you. [12:43] Luminous     Violet, as I've told you many times,     stop causing trouble for me. [12:48] Violet     No way! [12:50] Violet     After all, I love doing things     that annoy others! [12:54] Violet     And getting the jump on someone     as sharp as you is especially tough. [12:59] Violet     If we're gonna play anyway,     I want to enjoy it, too. [13:02] Violet     So let's have some fun! [13:04] Luminous     No shame whatsoever... [13:19] Gustav     I can't believe it... [13:21] Gustav     I'm witnessing a battle of the gods! [13:38] Violet     Well, looks like you haven't     lost any of your skills. [13:41] Violet     Glad to see it! [13:42] Luminous     Be quiet. [13:44] Luminous     More importantly, how do     you intend to settle this? [13:48] Violet     Well, let's see... [13:49] Gustav     G-Great God, I... I... [13:52] Violet     That's right. [13:53] Violet     You call yourself my servant,     and you can't even do a simple job like this. [13:58] Violet     What a letdown. [13:59] Gustav     Wait, please! [14:00] Gustav     I promise I'll be successful next time! [14:03] Gustav     I did achieve success     in giving you material form— [14:06] Violet     What? [14:07] Violet     All you did was force me to manifest [14:10] Violet     into her body using my own power. [14:12] Gustav     Huh? [14:13] Violet     You haven't achieved anything. [14:15] Violet     Don't make me laugh. [14:17] Violet     I'm disappointed in you. [14:19] Violet     If you're going to leave evidence,     that means I have to finish it myself. [14:23] Gustav     F-Finish it? [14:27] Gustav     O-Oh! Yes, of course! [14:29] Gustav     You are most certainly     capable of killing Luminous— [14:31] Violet     Idiot. [14:33] Violet     Go away, trash. [14:39] Demon     Th-This can't be! [14:44] Violet     You aren't the only seed I've sown. [14:48] Violet     Well, I'll be going now. Bye-bye! [14:55] Luminous     Hmph. [14:56] Luminous     Could that fool and her     whims be any more troublesome? [15:01] Luminous     Now, what to do about this? [15:09] Luminous     You. Come closer. [15:11] Paulo     Y-Yes, ma'am! [15:13] Luminous     Listen to me. [15:15] Luminous     You beat this man down     with that stick of yours. [15:18] Luminous     Correct? [15:20] Paulo     Yes, ma'am! I beat this man down! [15:23] Luminous     All right. Very good. [15:28] Satoru     Looks like he went back     to being a normal human. [15:31] Great Sage     Notice. [15:32] Great Sage     The Archdemon who had merged     with the individual named Carl [15:35] Great Sage     was absorbed by the individual named Gustav. [15:38] Benimaru     Did they have a falling-out? [15:41] Aslan     Hey! Look! [15:49] Satoru     Don't tell me... you took him out? [15:52] Paulo     Yes! I did it! [15:54] Great Sage     Answer. [15:55] Great Sage     A fusion between demons is so difficult     that it is considered taboo. [15:59] Great Sage     Should anything unforeseen happen, [16:00] Great Sage     it is highly likely to end in failure. [16:03] Rimuru     So you're saying Paulo beat Gustav     by hitting him at just the right time? [16:07] Rimuru     I definitely don't sense anything     from him, though... [16:10] Great Sage     Notice. [16:11] Great Sage     A demon cannot maintain its existence     without a vessel to reside in. [16:14] Great Sage     It is fair to conclude that he defeated him. [16:16] Rimuru     There's still a chance he fled, [16:18] Rimuru     but for now, I guess the threat is over. [16:23] Souther     Zenobia! Are you all right? [16:25] Aslan     Brother, please be calm. [16:27] Aslan     Let's trust Satoru to handle this. [16:31] Satoru     There's nothing wrong with her physically. [16:33] Satoru     From the looks of it,     she should wake up soon. [16:37] Aslan     Thank you. [16:38] Souther     Now, Great Phantom Thief, [16:40] Souther     I have a very important question     for you. Do you mind? [16:43] Satoru     Actually, uh... [16:44] Satoru     Sorry, but we're pretty busy, y'know? [16:47] Satoru     Benimaru! Soei! [16:48] Satoru     Well, we're out! See ya! [16:56] Satoru     Well done. [17:00] Soldier A     Come. Crown Prince Souther wants to see you. [17:08] Aslan     Hey! I've been waiting for you, Rimuru. [17:11] Rimuru     Prince Aslan? [17:13] Aslan     Sorry about this, but my     sister's weakness has returned. [17:17] Aslan     I'd like you to share some     of your secret remedy with her again. [17:20] Aslan     Would you? [17:21] Rimuru     Huh? [17:22] Rimuru     I really think she'll wake up soon, but... [17:25] Rimuru     Oh, well. [17:26] Rimuru     Yes, of course. [17:31] Souther     I thought so.     It's the same thing I was given. [17:34] Aslan     You were right, huh? [17:36] Rimuru     Huh? [17:43] Zenobia     I'm free now, thanks to you, Great Rimuru. [17:47] Aslan     We owe you for everything that's happened. [17:50] Aslan     Thank you. [17:51] Souther     We feel we are indebted to you. [17:53] Souther     Please remember that,     and ask us if you ever need anything. [17:57] Rimuru     S-Sure... [17:59] Rimuru     Zenobia had long since woken up by then... [18:02] Rimuru     And their reactions...     Looks like they've figured it out. [18:06] Rimuru     I should say the same. [18:07] Rimuru     I'm glad I could help in some small way. [18:10] Rimuru     If you're ever in need of medicine again, [18:12] Rimuru     seek out a merchant named Mjöllmile. [18:16] Aslan     The one whose reputation has soared lately [18:18] Aslan     as a merchant who deals     with the nation of monsters? [18:20] Barack     Come to think of it, [18:21] Barack     I've heard the leader of that     nation is called Rimuru Tempest. [18:25] Barack     What a coincidence. [18:27] Rimuru     They definitely know. [18:29] Paulo     He really was someone incredible... [18:32] Rimuru     Anyway, was it the king of this nation     who turned you brothers against each other? [18:39] Zenobia     Well, about that... The truth is... [18:42] Zenobia     When the soldiers went     to apprehend the king, [18:45] Zenobia     he had already passed away. [18:48] Aslan     The papers he left behind revealed     that he had summoned Archdemons. [18:53] Aslan     Knowing he had little time left,     our father despaired of this world, [18:57] Aslan     so he decided to make us fight [18:59] Aslan     with the intention of taking     over the body of the victor. [19:02] Souther     It's just as well things ended this way. [19:05] Souther     Given the nature of his crime, [19:06] Souther     nothing less than execution     would have sufficed, after all. [19:09] Rimuru     So everything really is resolved now. [19:12] Zenobia     Yes. [19:13] Zenobia     Thank you so much, Great Rimur— [19:16] Zenobia     No. Great Phantom Thief Satoru. [19:19] Rimuru     Come on, cut that out already. [19:29] Luminous     Despite a few headaches,     I took care of the matter. [19:34] (Flashback) Tedron     Those bastards failed! [19:36] (Flashback) Tedron     If this is what it's come to,     I'll manifest a demon in my own body! [19:41] (Flashback) Luminous     Fool. [19:43] (Flashback) Luminous     It's because you sullied your own hands     with such a foolish act [19:46] (Flashback) Luminous     that I let Violet's secret plot slide. [19:49] (Flashback) Luminous     Considering this kingdom is     an offering to the Mad King, [19:52] (Flashback) Luminous     if you had just quietly protected this land, [19:55] (Flashback) Luminous     I would have rewarded     you in your dying moments. [19:59] (Flashback) Tedron     Just who are you?! [20:01] (Flashback) Luminous     Who do you think I am? [20:06] (Flashback) Tedron     You are... the guardian of the four— [20:08] (Flashback) Luminous     I will not show mercy. [20:09] (Flashback) Luminous     Regret your use of such     taboo practices in Hell. [20:22] (Flashback) Luminous     You can continue your slumber free of worry. [20:29] Rimuru     Crown Prince Souther     soon had his coronation, [20:33] Rimuru     and Prince Aslan was appointed     his minister of military affairs. [20:37] Rimuru     Princess Zenobia made a full recovery, [20:39] Rimuru     and apparently, she lost her unique skill. [20:42] Rimuru     And... [20:43] Rimuru     Paulo, you're really staying here? [20:46] Rimuru     I got scouted to be     the knight captain, after all! [20:48] Aslan     I'm counting on you. [20:50] Paulo     Yes, sir! [20:50] Rimuru     Well, best of luck. [20:53] Rimuru     Okay, take care, all of you. [20:55] Rimuru     Let's make sure we meet again. [21:01] Rimuru     And on that note... [21:02] Rimuru     This mission is over. [21:04] Yuuki     It sounds like it went well. [21:07] Rimuru     Of course it did. [21:08] Rimuru     I did more than gather information.     I solved the problem. [21:11] Yuuki     You're so incredible that     it's almost exasperating. [21:14] Yuuki     You've saved HQ's reputation. [21:17] Yuuki     We should make good progress exploring     the ruins in that land now. [21:21] Rimuru     Glad to hear it. [21:22] Yuuki     By the way, Rimuru-san, [21:24] Yuuki     do you have plans     for the rest of summer break? [21:26] Yuuki     I mean, since that ended sooner     than I expected, I had one other— [21:29] Rimuru     Nope! Can't hear you! [21:31] Rimuru     I'm not accepting any more     requests from you for a good while! [21:33] Yuuki     Please don't say that! Just hear me out! [21:38] Aslan     A new Demon Lord has appeared? [21:40] Souther     His name is Rimuru Tempest. [21:43] Zenobia     My! [21:44] Aslan     Oh? [21:45] Aslan     Well, given his strength,     I can see how he could be a Demon Lord. [21:48] Zenobia     I suppose I can't marry     him now. What a shame. [21:52] Souther     In any case, it's cause for celebration. [21:55] Souther     We must secure diplomatic relations     between his nation and ours. [21:59] Paulo     Oh, damn... [22:00] Paulo     I got all cocky and impertinent     with a Demon Lord, [22:03] Paulo     *and *I borrowed money from him     that I never returned! [22:05] Paulo     What do I do?! [22:07] Rimuru     Knight Captain Paulo     of the Kingdom of Coleus, [22:09] Rimuru     the man said to be so scary     he could quiet a crying child, [22:12] Rimuru     would later become widely known     as the man who mooched off of a Demon Lord. [23:54] Jaune     Huh... [23:56] Jaune     That Violet never learns, does she? [24:08] Blanc     So she failed again, did she? [24:18] Violet     Now... [24:20] Violet     Which seed will sprout next, I wonder?
