[00:01] Narrator     In hopes of saving the kids, [00:03] Narrator     Rimuru took them in search     of the Dwelling of Spirits. [00:06] Narrator     On the way, they met Ramiris,     the Queen of Spirits. [00:09] Narrator     Then, after earning her agreement to help, [00:11] Narrator     they set out to try to     summon superior spirits. [00:17] (Flashback) Rimuru     So this is... [00:19] (Flashback) Ramiris     The deepest part of the Labyrinth,     the Dwelling of Spirits. [00:23] (Flashback) Rimuru     Kenya, Ryota, Gail, Alice, Chloe... [00:28] (Flashback) Rimuru     Let's do this! [00:29] (Flashback) Kids     Yeah! [00:32] Rimuru     Shizu-san, wherever you     are, are you watching? [00:37] Rimuru     I'll make sure [00:39] Rimuru     your wish is realized. SIGN    That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime SIGN    Episode 23: Saved Souls [02:19] Ramiris     Now, listen. You'll call to     the spirits from over there. [02:22] Rimuru     What do we say? [02:23] Ramiris     Anything. It can be, "Help me!"     Or even, "Let's play!" [02:28] Ramiris     If any spirits take interest and come     to you, the summon was a success. [02:32] Ryota     Will they actually come? [02:35] Kenya     Sure they will! [02:36] Ryota     R-Right... [02:37] Kenya     Sensei, they'll come, right? [02:39] Chloe     They'll come? [02:41] Rimuru     It'll be fine. In the worst case... [02:44] Rimuru     I'll tame a demon if I have to. [02:46] Ramiris     Uh, your face looks really evil right now. [02:49] Rimuru     So, who's going first? [02:53] Gail     Sensei... [02:55] Gail     If anything happens to me, take care of them. [03:02] Ramiris     I can't wait to see what     kind of spirit shows up! [03:08] Gail     Okay, I'm going to pray now. [03:38] Rimuru     These aren't superior spirits...     They're inferior spirits. [03:43] Rimuru     If these tiny spirits [03:45] Rimuru     are fragments cut from a great     spirit by Gail's prayer, [03:49] Rimuru     then we just need to create a new spirit.

[04:53] Rimuru     Now, as his body matures, [04:56] Rimuru     he should gradually acquire abilities. [04:59] Rimuru     We did it, Great Sage! [05:01] Great Sage     Heh. [05:02] Rimuru     I feel like I just saw Great     Sage make a smug face... [05:06] Great Sage     You imagined it. [05:08] Rimuru     Okay, it's over. You did great. [05:11] Gail     Huh? [05:12] Rimuru     You're okay now. The destruction's stopped. [05:15] Rimuru     I guarantee it. [05:18] Gail     S-Sensei... Thank you so much! [05:21] Rimuru     Think nothing of it.

[06:30] Rimuru     Is something coming? [06:37] Light     Hey! How are ya? [06:38] Light     I'm just great! [06:40] Ramiris     What the heck are you doing in my house?! [06:43] Light     It was just a whim. [06:45] Rimuru     Who is that? [06:46] Ramiris     This is... [06:47] Light     Hiya! I'm a light spirit! Nice to meet ya! [06:50] Light     Unlike the evil spirit that     fell to become this monster [06:53] Light     I'm a pure, innocent spirit of light! [06:55] Ramiris     Who are you calling evil?!

[07:06] Light     I could just feel something shining in you, Ken! [07:09] Light     I know, 'cause I'm light! [07:12] Kenya     That wasn't funny. [07:14] Light     So on that note, I'm gonna save you, Ken! [07:17] Light     I'll look out for you     until you're all grown up! [07:21] Light     You might even become a Hero, you know! [07:25] Kenya     A Hero?! [07:26] Ryota     Ken, a Hero? [07:27] Gail     Wow... [07:29] Rimuru     Well, that would be something... [07:34] Ramiris     It inhabited you... [07:35] Kenya     Huh? [07:36] Rimuru     That easily? [07:38] Kenya     Sensei... [07:40] Rimuru     Huh? [07:41] Rimuru     Oh, yeah! It's fine! All according to plan! [07:45] Rimuru     Good for you!

[08:16] Chloe     Sensei, um... Sensei... [08:23] Chloe     Um, Sensei... um... [08:29] Chloe     I love you! [08:31] Rimuru     Well, I like you, too. [08:34] Rimuru     I wish you'd waited another eight...     no, ten years to say that. [08:40] Rimuru     Hell, I wish I'd heard     that while I was alive! [08:43] Rimuru     Go on and pray. [08:45] Chloe     Okay. [08:51] Ramiris     What's that? [08:57] Rimuru     That pressure...     It felt like the sky fell down. [09:14] Rimuru     That's... not a spirit? [09:16] Great Sage     Answer. [09:17] Great Sage     It is a spiritual body equivalent     to a superior spirit. [09:20] Great Sage     Abnormal level of energy detected. [09:23] Great Sage     Its threshold is immeasurable. [09:39] Rimuru     What the... [09:44] Ramiris     Hold it! No way, no how! [09:45] Ramiris     I'm not letting you have your way! [09:47] Rimuru     Hey, what the heck are you— [09:48] Ramiris     Quiet! That thing's dangerous!     Can't you see that?! [09:51] Rimuru     How the hell would I know?!     What's so dangerous? [09:54] Ramiris     We'll talk later! [10:04] Ramiris     It inhabited her! [10:06] Ramiris     Darn it! It's too late! [10:08] Ramiris     Well, I'm done!     Don't blame me for whatever happens! [10:11] Rimuru     Appraisal. [10:15] Rimuru     That immense energy has     completely disappeared. [10:19] Rimuru     She seems... stable. [10:22] Rimuru     Looks like there's no problem... [10:25] Rimuru     But what in the world... [10:29] Rimuru     So just what was that? [10:31] Ramiris     No idea! I don't know the details! [10:34] Ramiris     But I'm pretty sure that     one was born in the future. [10:37] Rimuru     Huh? [10:38] Ramiris     It's something resembling a spirit,     except it came from the future! [10:42] Ramiris     It's almost impossible to believe, [10:43] Ramiris     but by inhabiting her, it laid the     foundation for its own rebirth? [10:48] Rimuru     What are you talking about? [10:49] Ramiris     I seriously don't know! [10:52] Ramiris     But that thing had enormous power! [10:54] Ramiris     I'm pretty sure it'll be big trouble     if that thing is born in the future! [10:58] Ramiris     Maybe it had the divine protection     of the Great Spirit of Time... [11:02] Rimuru     I'm completely lost! [11:05] Rimuru     But it's all good. As long as Chloe's     okay, that's all that matters. [11:08] Rimuru     No one knows what'll happen in the     future, so it means nothing right now! [11:16] Rimuru     Good for you, Chloe.     It went just as I planned. [11:19] Rimuru     You're out of danger now, too. [11:23] Chloe     Was that really just as you planned it? [11:25] Rimuru     Y-Yeah! Of course! [11:31] Ramiris     I mean, not that it matters. [11:33] Ramiris     Now that it's inhabited her,     it's out of my control. [11:37] Rimuru     What's the problem?     Everyone was successful. [11:40] Rimuru     Thanks! These kids are saved, thanks to you! [11:44] Chloe     Thank you! [11:46] Kids     Thank you! [11:48] Ranga     I'm grateful! [11:50] Ramiris     C-Cut that out already! [11:53] Rimuru     And this is a Demon Lord?     What has the world come to? [12:14] Rimuru     I did it, Shizu-san. [12:16] Rimuru     They'll be okay now. [12:20] Rimuru     It was a happy ending! [12:23] Rimuru     Or so I thought, but after that... [12:26] Rimuru     I had to give Ramiris a replacement     for the golem I destroyed... [12:34] Rimuru     Then I had to summon a demon and     make it possess that golem... [12:40] Rimuru     And there was one last struggle. [12:42] Rimuru     But hey, that's a different story. [12:48] Yuuki     I truly thank you. [12:50] Rimuru     Nah, no worries, no worries! [12:54] Rimuru     The kids will be fine now. [12:56] Rimuru     Guess they'll be able to     live normal lives, huh? [12:58] Yuuki     Yes. [12:59] Yuuki     It's unlikely the nations that abandoned     them will ever try to take them back. [13:03] Yuuki     That would violate international law, anyway. [13:06] Yuuki     They'd be making enemies of the     Free Union if they did that. [13:10] Yuuki     Are you going to give the kids IDs     and make them members of the Union? [13:15] Yuuki     Well, if that's what they want,     that might be a very good idea. [13:21] Yuuki     But for the time being, I'd like to     let them study at the Free Academy [13:24] Yuuki     and give them the chance     to choose their future. [13:27] Rimuru     Okay. I'm counting on you. [13:29] Yuuki     You needn't worry. [13:31] Yuuki     By the way, you still won't tell     me how you resolved all this? [13:37] Rimuru     That's a secret. [13:39] Rimuru     There are some things you don't need to know. [13:41] Rimuru     It's no substitute for telling you, [13:44] Rimuru     but I hope you'll be content with this... [13:50] Yuuki     Understood! Thank you, Master! [14:00] Kenya     Hey, wait up! [14:12] Rimuru     So much has happened... [17:20] Rimuru     But now this case is closed. [17:22] Rimuru     All of our problems have been solved. [17:26] Rimuru     Shizu-san, this is for the best, right? [17:36] Shizu     Thank you, Slime-san. [19:17] Diablo     What a horrible blunder. [19:19] Diablo     You finally summoned me, [19:22] Diablo     and my own family got ahead of me. [19:26] Diablo     Next time, without a doubt... [19:31] Diablo     I know you will lead me to     the truth of this world. [19:46] Chloe     Sensei... Sensei, don't go... [19:50] Ryota     Chlo-chi... Don't try to keep Sensei here. [19:54] Alice     Yeah! Just get going already! [19:56] Chloe     But... [20:05] Rimuru     Take care of them. [20:06] Yuuki     I will. You can count on me. [20:14] Chloe     Sensei! [20:22] Kenya     Jeez, Chloe, you're such a crybaby. [20:25] Kenya     Stop crying! [20:26] Ryota     You're crying, too, Ken-chan... [20:27] Kenya     I'm not! My eyes are just sweating! [20:30] Chloe     Sensei... Sensei... [20:36] Rimuru     Chloe. [20:38] Rimuru     There, there, Chloe. [20:40] Rimuru     I'll give you this, so cheer up, okay? [20:44] Alice     I wanted that, too! [20:47] Chloe     But I got it. [20:48] Kenya     Lucky! [20:50] Alice     No fair! No fair! [20:51] Rimuru     Oh, right. I have gifts for you guys, too. [21:00] Ryota     Ken-chan, you look awesome! [21:02] Kenya     So do you! [21:03] Gail     These are fantastic! [21:05] Alice     I-It's so cute! [21:08] Rimuru     There's a really handy girl     named Shuna in my country. [21:11] Rimuru     I had her make those and send them. [21:13] Kenya     Sensei... [21:14] Chloe     Thank you! [21:15] Rimuru     Now, listen. Be sure you study hard. [21:19] Rimuru     Saying goodbye is sad, but it's     not as if we'll never meet again. [21:24] Rimuru     I'll bring Ranga and come visit you. [21:27] Ranga     Be sure to keep up with your studies,     even after we leave! [21:30] Kenya     Y-You'd better come visit us! [21:33] Alice     Wh-When I graduate, I might     just come visit you, too! [21:38] Rimuru     Sure. I'll be waiting. [21:39] Rimuru     I'll have the entire city     of Rimuru welcome you. [21:48] Kenya     Sensei! [21:49] Ryota     See you again! [21:50] Alice     Take care! [21:50] Gail     Goodbye! [21:52] Rimuru     Be well! [22:00] Chloe     See you again. [22:06] Ranga     Master, why did you give     her your treasured mask? [22:11] Rimuru     Yeah, I wonder why, too... [22:16] Rimuru     I'm not sure either, [22:18] Rimuru     but for some reason, giving it to Chloe     felt like the natural thing to do. [22:23] Rimuru     Something told me that was best. [22:25] Ranga     I see. [22:27] Rimuru     I bet Shizu-san would be happier     with Chloe having it than me. [22:33] Rimuru     She'll take good care of it. [22:35] Rimuru     She might even follow in Shizu-san's     footsteps to become a champion... [22:38] Rimuru     Heck, she might even become a Hero! [22:41] Ranga     Surely not! [22:45] Rimuru     Ranga! [22:46] Ranga     Yes, Master! [22:48] Rimuru     Let's go back to our town... to our home! [22:51] Rimuru     Everyone's waiting! [23:03] Narrator     The man who thought he was living     a perfectly ordinary life [23:08] Narrator     was stabbed by a random attacker and died, [23:10] Narrator     and was reincarnated in another world.
