**[00:05] Rimuru**
*With my excursion to Dwargon over,*
**[00:07] Rimuru**
*I returned to Engrassia.*
**[00:10] Rimuru**
I will now announce the
results of your final exams.
**[00:20] Alice**
Huh?!
**[00:21] Chloe**
You mean...
**[00:22] Kenya**
Th-That bad?
**[00:24] Rimuru**
I'm sorry, but all of you...
**[00:28] Rimuru**
...passed!
**[00:32] Kenya**
Man, don't scare us like that!
**[00:34] Rimuru**
I figured we all need a
surprise now and then.
**[00:37] Kenya**
Whew, thank goodness.
**[00:38] Alice**
I-I wasn't worried about a thing.
**[00:42] Gail**
So we're all advancing to the next grade.
**[00:44] Ryota**
We'll all be together again.
**[00:46] Chloe**
Yeah! I'm so glad!
**[00:48] Rimuru**
You all did great.
**[00:50] Rimuru**
And this also concludes
my job as your teacher.
**[00:54] Rimuru**
Once this term ends,
Tiss-sensei will take over for me,
**[00:58] Rimuru**
and I'll return home to Tempest.
**[01:01] Chloe**
Sensei...
**[01:02] Rimuru**
Now, don't look so sad.
**[01:04] Rimuru**
I'm still here for a few more days,
**[01:06] Rimuru**
so send me off with smiles!
**[01:08] Rimuru**
Even after I go home,
**[01:09] Rimuru**
Alice, Chloe, Ryota, Kenya, and Gail,
**[01:14] Rimuru**
you'll all still be my precious students.
**[01:17] Chloe**
Okay.
**[01:18] Kenya**
Sensei...
**[01:20] Alice**
Just don't forget to keep
your promise, all right?!
**[01:23] Rimuru**
Promise?
**[01:25] Kenya**
Yes!
**[01:25] Kenya**
You said if we kept our grades up,
you'd show us the rest of that manga!
**[01:30] Rimuru**
Yeah, I know, I know.
**[01:32] Rimuru**
I'll have every last volume
of *Parasyte* ready for you.
**[01:35] Kenya**
Sweet!
**[01:40] Rimuru**
Tiss-sensei, they're all advancing,
thanks to your help.
**[01:44] Tiss**
It wasn't me. They all worked very hard.
**[01:48] Rimuru**
I know I can trust you to look out
for them from the next term on.
**[01:51] Rimuru**
Take good care of them for me.
**[01:54] Tiss**
Sure!
**[02:03] Youm**
Okay, Mjurran, we're here.
**[02:08] Youm**
That's the nation of monsters,
**[02:10] Youm**
the Jura Tempest Federation.
***SIGN*** That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime
***SIGN*** Episode 28: The Scheming Kingdom of Falmuth
**[03:50] Youm**
This is our new ally, Mjurran. She's a wizard.
**[03:54] Shuna**
Hello. It's a pleasure to meet you.
**[03:57] Mjurran**
Likewise.
**[03:58] Shion**
Please, make yourself at home.
**[04:01] Youm**
Mjurran's going to be our consultant and
military advisor to help us fight against magic.
**[04:06] Shuna**
Oh, you must be very strong!
**[04:09] Mjurran**
I wouldn't go that far...
**[04:23] Mjurran**
Is there a festival?
**[04:24] Shuna**
No, Great Rimuru will be making
his official return soon.
**[04:29] Shuna**
We're preparing to celebrate that.
**[04:32] Shion**
Well, we still have things we need to do.
**[04:36] Shuna**
Pardon us.
**[04:38] Shuna**
Oh, and feel free to visit
the hot spring later.
**[04:41] Myulen**
Hot spring?
**[04:42] Shuna**
You'll feel much better after a good sweat!
**[04:46] Mjurran**
Thank you...
**[04:55] Mjurran**
*So those are Kijin...*
**[04:56] Mjurran**
*Each one of them is tremendously strong.*
**[05:00] Youm**
Well, Mjurran, let me
show you around Tempest.
**[05:10] Youm**
This is the blacksmith's shop.
**[05:12] Youm**
Those two make the best armor
and weapons you'll ever see.
**[05:20] Youm**
This is the reception hall.
**[05:21] Youm**
Pretty fancy, right?
**[05:24] Mjurran**
Yes...
**[05:28] Lizard**
Hello!
**[05:31] Koby**
Oh, thank you for coming.
**[05:33] Lizard**
We brought this week's
supply of high potions.
**[05:40] Koby**
Yes, they're all here.
**[05:41] Lizard**
Sign here, please!
**[05:44] Koby**
Thank you.
**[05:46] Koby**
We may need to increase our
orders starting next month.
**[05:49] Koby**
I'll come by to discuss that soon.
**[05:52] Koby**
Please let Gabiru know.
**[05:54] Lizard**
Understood!
**[05:58] Mjurran**
*They produce that many high potions?*
**[06:02] Mjurran**
* Both their military strength*
* and their technology*
**[06:05] Mjurran**
* make this place a clear*
* threat to other nations.*
**[06:08] Youm**
Hey, what's up?
**[06:11] Mjurran**
Oh, nothing.
**[06:13] Youm**
The training ground's up ahead.
**[06:27] Mjurran**
*He is truly gullible.*
**[06:30] Mjurran**
*I'm only here on Lord Clayman's orders*
**[06:33] Mjurran**
*to investigate this nation of monsters.*
**[06:36] Mjurran**
*I'm only using you, Youm.*
**[06:41] Mjurran**
*What a fool.*
**[06:42] Mjurran**
* He probably doesn't even*
* suspect that I'm a majin.*
**[06:48] Hakuro**
All right, break time.
**[06:58] Gobta**
Ow...
**[07:00] Gobta**
The old man really wasn't
pulling any punches today...
**[07:04] Gobzo**
I'm pulverized.
**[07:06] Grucius**
G-Gobta, is that Ogre—
**[07:09] Grucius**
I mean, is Sir Hakuro always like that?
**[07:14] Gobta**
He sure is.
**[07:16] Gobzo**
I'm pulverized.
**[07:17] Gobta**
Dang... This is no joke!
**[07:21] Gobta**
Come on, you guys. On your feet.
**[07:25] Grucius**
It's like this... every time?
**[07:28] Grucius**
It's almost even more amazing
that you guys are still alive.
**[07:34] Grucius**
I wish we could recruit you
into the Animal Kingdom.
**[07:37] Youm**
Hey, Grucius.
**[07:39] Grucius**
Oh, it's you, Youm.
**[07:43] Youm**
Damn, you're a mess.
**[07:45] Grucius**
Shut up!
**[07:47] Grucius**
Who's she?
**[07:48] Youm**
Oh, this is Mjurran, our most skilled member.
**[07:52] Youm**
Even you wouldn't stand a chance against her.
**[07:54] Grucius**
Your most skilled?
**[07:55] Grucius**
So, Youm, you're telling me this
scrawny little girl beat you?
**[08:00] Youm**
You'll just have to fight
her yourself and see.
**[08:02] Youm**
If you manage to beat her,
I'll call you "Boss" from now on.
**[08:06] Grucius**
Fine! And if the girl defeats me,
**[08:09] Grucius**
I'll become your underling!
**[08:13] Grucius**
Unlike Youm, I won't go easy
on you because you're a girl.
**[08:18] Grucius**
Here I come!
**[08:26] Youm**
This is fun, Mjurran.
We should call more people over.
**[08:28] Grucius**
And you call yourself a champion?!
C'mon, help me!
**[08:33] Grucius**
Hey, you.
**[08:34] Grucius**
You win.
**[08:36] Mjurran**
You admit it?
**[08:38] Grucius**
Like I have much choice right now.
**[08:40] Grucius**
You're pretty strong. I'm impressed.
**[08:42] Youm**
Right?
**[08:44] Youm**
So, Grucius, about what you promised...
**[08:47] Grucius**
Yeah, sure. You can be the boss.
**[08:50] Youm**
Uh, I was just kidding about that...
**[08:52] Grucius**
A promise is a promise.
**[08:54] Grucius**
I'm gonna be honest, though.
**[08:57] Grucius**
If Lord Carrion ordered me to kill you,
**[09:01] Grucius**
I wouldn't hesitate to do so.
**[09:03] Grucius**
Sorry, but that's an unyielding rule of mine.
**[09:08] Youm**
Got it. I'll remember that.
**[09:15] Grucius**
And I'll join your party.
**[09:18] Grucius**
I want to see some other nations, anyway.
**[09:20] Youm**
That's fine with me... but are you sure?
**[09:23] Grucius**
It's my mission to broaden my horizons,
**[09:26] Grucius**
so I'll just do what I feel like.
**[09:28] Gobta**
That fight was truly incredible.
**[09:31] Grucius**
Gobta?
**[09:32] Gobta**
I'm convinced now.
**[09:34] Gobta**
With the lady's magic,
**[09:36] Gobta**
we could beat the old man!
**[09:38] Grucius**
Whoa, whoa! Are you talking
about Sir Hakuro?
**[09:41] Youm**
You got a plan or something?
**[09:43] Gobta**
Shh! Not so loud!
**[09:45] Gobta**
Now, listen. First,
we'll use Mjurran's magic to...
**[09:49] Mjurran**
*What in the world am I doing?*
**[09:53] Hakuro**
Oh? A mock battle, eh?
**[09:56] Gobta**
Today is the day we'll
make you cry out in pain!
**[09:59] Gobta**
I hope you're ready, old ma—er, Master!
**[10:02] Youm**
Least provocative provocation ever.
**[10:05] Hakuro**
I commend your spirit.
**[10:06] Hakuro**
It's about time I gave you
some real-life practice again.
**[10:10] Gobta**
Our pre-set magic circle is already in place.
**[10:13] Gobta**
If we can just lead him to it...
**[10:16] Hakuro**
Well, shall we begin?
**[10:20] Gobta**
*I figured he'd come straight for me!*
**[10:23] Mjurran**
Liquefaction.
**[10:27] Youm**
We got him! Now we all strike at—
**[10:31] Gobta**
Huh?!
**[10:31] Gobta**
Where'd the old man go?
**[10:35] Hakuro**
"Old man," you say?!
**[10:38] Gobta**
W-W-W-W-Wai—
**[10:40] Gobta**
Owie!
**[10:42] Grucius**
You're kidding!
**[10:43] Youm**
How is he even able to move?!
**[10:45] Hakuro**
Flash Step. I taught you this, did I not?
**[10:59] Hakuro**
Now, let's have you explain yourselves.
**[11:02] Hakuro**
What possessed you to attempt to trap me?
**[11:09] Mjurran**
Um...
**[11:10] Hakuro**
Oh, you needn't say a thing, young lady.
**[11:13] Hakuro**
I know you were merely dragged
into it by these idiots.
**[11:17] Mjurran**
Right...
**[11:18] Hakuro**
In case you boys need reminding,
**[11:21] Hakuro**
don't even think about trying to test
Great Rimuru, even accidentally.
**[11:25] Gobta**
You think we need reminding?
We know we're no match for Great Rimuru.
**[11:30] Hakuro**
Aren't you? I get the feeling he
would be quite easily deceived.
**[11:36] Mjollmile**
What was that? Got a cold?
**[11:38] Rimuru**
Nah, someone's probably talking about me.
**[11:41] Mjollmile**
Well, you're popular enough.
**[11:44] Mjollmile**
Care for another round?
**[11:45] Rimuru**
Sure, I'll take you up on that.
**[11:52] Youm**
Ah... I'm alive again.
**[11:54] Gobta**
I don't think that old man would
die, even if we killed him.
**[11:57] Grucius**
Gobta, maybe you should just give up on
trying to catch Sir Hakuro off-guard.
**[12:03] Gobta**
I'll get him back one day!
**[12:06] Grucius**
Your determination is impressive.
**[12:08] Gobta**
Anyway, that magic lady sure is amazing!
**[12:13] Youm**
Right? She's pretty hot, too.
**[12:15] Grucius**
No argument here.
**[12:17] Grucius**
Wonder if she'd have my kid...
**[12:18] Youm**
Whoa, hold up! That ain't gonna happen!
**[12:21] Youm**
She works for me, y'know!
**[12:23] Grucius**
All's fair in love.
To the swift go the spoils.
**[12:26] Gobta**
To the swift go the spoils?! Got it!
**[12:28] Youm**
Hey! Not you, too!
**[12:34] Shuna**
Those boys are unbelievable.
**[12:37] Shion**
Worry not, Princess Shuna!
**[12:38] Shion**
I'll give them an attitude adjustment
by beating them until they cry!
**[12:42] Mjurran**
I'll help you with that.
**[13:00] Alice**
Hey! Read faster!
**[13:02] Kenya**
Hang on. I just got to the good part.
**[13:04] Ryota**
I never saw this coming...
**[13:06] Gail**
I'm really surprised.
**[13:13] Rimuru**
So how's business going?
**[13:15] Mjollmile**
Thanks to you, our top-quality high
potion's attracted tons of buyers.
**[13:19] Mjollmile**
We've made sure to spread the
word in the Western Nations,
**[13:22] Mjollmile**
so we should be getting a
lot more orders from now on.
**[13:25] Rimuru**
And you'll make a fortune, eh?
**[13:28] Mjollmile**
Naturally. That's what my
job's about, after all.
**[13:32] Mjollmile**
Oh, but don't worry!
**[13:34] Mjollmile**
I'll pay Tempest its fair share, that I will!
**[13:38] Rimuru**
I wasn't worried about that.
**[13:41] Mjollmile**
I'll be paying for today, too, of course!
**[13:44] Mjollmile**
To thank you for the business, and to
give you a little goodbye party, y'know?
**[13:48] Rimuru**
I'll gladly take you up on that.
**[13:52] Mjollmile**
Baron Veryard was grateful to you, too.
**[13:55] Mjollmile**
Once those high potions are on the market,
**[13:57] Mjollmile**
the Kingdom of Blumund also
stands to profit, after all.
**[14:00] Rimuru**
Veryard, huh?
**[14:06] Rimuru**
It's great that Tempest and the Kingdom
of Blumund forged a security pact, but...
**[14:13] Rimuru**
They really got me.
**[14:15] Rimuru**
If some other country invades
Blumund through the forest,
**[14:19] Rimuru**
Tempest would have to serve as a breakwater.
**[14:22] Mjollmile**
That's politics for ya.
**[14:25] Mjollmile**
But if Tempest were to be
invaded by some other country,
**[14:29] Mjollmile**
Blumund would likely fight by your side.
**[14:32] Mjollmile**
It's a give-and-take thing.
**[14:34] Rimuru**
But Tempest wouldn't be invaded...
**[14:37] Mjollmile**
Hey, you never know what might happen.
**[14:41] Mjollmile**
I suspect Tempest is on its way
to becoming a major trade center.
**[14:47] Rimuru**
Dorf-san said something like that, too.
**[14:49] Mjollmile**
And if that happens,
**[14:51] Mjollmile**
some countries might see
Tempest as a nuisance.
**[14:54] Mjollmile**
Such as... the Kingdom
of Falmuth, for example.
**[15:01] Mjollmile**
Well, no reason to expect anything
to happen right away, y'know?
**[15:05] Mjollmile**
Just saying it never hurts
to stay on your guard!
**[15:09] Rimuru**
Yeah, you're right.
**[15:12] Rimuru**
*The Kingdom of Falmuth...*
**[15:14] Rimuru**
*King Gazel did say he didn't like their king.*
**[15:19] Rimuru**
*Said he was too greedy or something...*
**[15:26] Edmaris**
Youm the champion, you say?
**[15:29] Razen**
Yes. There is a rumor that his party
**[15:31] Razen**
defeated the Orc Lord and his forces.
**[15:36] Razen**
Though it is ridiculous to
even call him a champion.
**[15:39] Folgen**
The Freedom Union did report
that the Orc Lord had appeared.
**[15:44] Edmaris**
Which means it can't all
be completely untrue...
**[15:48] Razen**
And as for Youm the champion...
**[15:51] Razen**
It seems he has taken
up residence in Tempest.
**[15:55] Edmaris**
Tempest... The nation of monsters?
**[15:59] Razen**
Yes, since it was founded,
**[16:02] Razen**
the flow of merchants into the
Kingdom of Falmuth has declined,
**[16:05] Razen**
and its financial situation has
taken a turn for the worse.
**[16:08] Razen**
This is because they can safely travel
to Dwargon without passing through here.
**[16:14] Razen**
This is a matter of life and
death for the Kingdom of Falmuth.
**[16:18] Razen**
If this nation of monsters goes unchecked,
**[16:21] Razen**
they will become well-known in
the Western Nations as well,
**[16:24] Razen**
and any action against them
will become infeasible.
**[16:26] Razen**
The time to strike is now.
**[16:28] Folgen**
But evolved monsters will be a problem.
**[16:32] Folgen**
With their human forms comes intelligence,
**[16:34] Folgen**
which will make them quite formidable foes.
**[16:36] Edmaris**
Hmm... How many men do we have
that could mobilize immediately?
**[16:41] Folgen**
Roughly 17,000.
**[16:43] Edmaris**
Not enough.
**[16:47] Reyhiem**
Worry not, my king.
**[16:51] Edmaris**
Archbishop Reyhiem.
**[16:53] Edmaris**
Does the Western Holy Church
have a plan of some sort?
**[16:57] Reyhiem**
Yes, yes.
**[16:59] Reyhiem**
The Western Holy Church's headquarters
plans to subjugate the nation of monsters
**[17:03] Reyhiem**
as an enemy nation in
clear opposition to God.
**[17:08] Edmaris**
What's this?
**[17:10] Edmaris**
The church has recognized that
nation as an enemy to our God?!
**[17:17] Reyhiem**
However, no harm has been done yet.
**[17:21] Reyhiem**
So if we could request help from some
other country to subjugate them...
**[17:27] Edmaris**
A country to help you, eh?
**[17:33] Edmaris**
Speaking strictly hypothetically...
**[17:36] Edmaris**
If a citizen of our nation
were to be harmed by Tempest,
**[17:40] Edmaris**
what do you suppose would happen?
**[17:42] Reyhiem**
Yes, yes.
**[17:44] Reyhiem**
Were that to happen, the Western Holy Church
**[17:46] Reyhiem**
would assume the responsibility of sending
the Temple Knights to rescue the believers.
**[17:51] Folgen**
That's very reassuring.
**[17:53] Folgen**
Then we could boldly set out
to subjugate the monsters.
**[17:58] Edmaris**
Good.
**[18:00] Edmaris**
This battle shall be a holy war!
**[18:02] Edmaris**
Start by sending an advance
party to start a commotion!
**[18:06] Razen**
My king, to give them a show of our power,
**[18:10] Razen**
I believe we should send those Otherworlders.
**[18:14] Edmaris**
I see...
**[18:15] Edmaris**
Those monstrosities could indeed be useful.
**[18:19] Edmaris**
But we must not let our guard down.
**[18:22] Razen**
Out of utmost caution,
**[18:23] Razen**
we shall order them to return
after only a brief rampage.
**[18:27] Reyhiem**
My king, if it pleases you,
may I test my secret art?
**[18:33] Edmaris**
Secret art?
**[18:35] Reyhiem**
Pardon me.
**[18:51] Edmaris**
That does sound interesting!
**[18:53] Edmaris**
Very well. I will allow it, Reyhiem.
**[18:56] Reyhiem**
Thank you so much.
**[18:58] Reyhiem**
I promise that I will use
it for Your Majesty's glory.
**[19:12] Shogo**
A nation ruled by a slime?
**[19:15] Shogo**
Are you mocking me?!
**[19:17] Razen**
Shogo, calm down.
**[19:19] Razen**
Let me finish speaking.
**[19:21] Shogo**
Slimes are weak monsters!
**[19:23] Shogo**
How could one become the
ruler of the forest?!
**[19:25] Kyoya**
Shogo-san doesn't mean any harm.
**[19:28] Kyoya**
In our world, slimes are famous
for being weak monsters.
**[19:33] Razen**
Regardless, I would like
you three to go to Tempest
**[19:36] Razen**
along with 100 knights as an advance party.
**[19:40] Razen**
Understood?
**[19:47] Kirara**
Wow, it's been ages since we went on a trip!
**[19:50] Shogo**
Don't make me laugh.
**[19:51] Shogo**
They're seriously mobilizing
the army for a slime?
**[19:54] Kyoya**
Well, when that slime controls
forces in the tens of thousands,
**[19:57] Kyoya**
I'd say it's perfectly normal
to see it as a threat.
**[20:00] Shogo**
I dunno about that.
**[20:02] Shogo**
Humans in this world are
ridiculously weak, you know.
**[20:07] Kirara**
More like you're just too strong, Shogo.
**[20:09] Kirara**
The unique skills meant for combat
are just so random, aren't they...
**[20:13] Kirara**
Berserker?
**[20:15] Kyoya**
Nah, if you ask me,
yours are a lot scarier, Kirara.
**[20:19] Shogo**
For real. Even I think yours are worse.
**[20:25] Shogo**
Damn that stupid old bastard, though!
**[20:28] Shogo**
He thinks he can just order us around?!
**[20:30] Kirara**
I know, he's seriously annoying.
**[20:32] Kirara**
I swear I'm gonna kill him someday.
**[20:34] Kyoya**
Come on, don't say that.
**[20:37] Kyoya**
At least if we do as he says,
**[20:39] Kyoya**
he gives us the best food, clothes,
and housing this world has to offer.
**[20:43] Shogo**
What? Shouldn't that be a given, though?
**[20:45] Shogo**
The "best this world has to offer"
**[20:48] Shogo**
is still garbage compared
to what's in our world!
**[20:50] Kirara**
You got that right.
**[20:52] Kirara**
There are no stylish shops or cosmetics here.
**[20:54] Kirara**
They don't have TV, the Internet,
or even smartphones!
**[20:57] Kirara**
A world as dull and boring as
this might as well just collapse!
**[21:07] Kyoya**
*Shogo and Kirara don't seem happy about it,*
**[21:09] Kyoya**
*but I see this as an opportunity.*
**[21:12] Kyoya**
* If war breaks out, we can*
* kill the guys who control us*
**[21:17] Kyoya**
*and get a chance at our own freedom.*
**[21:38] Rimuru**
*At the time, I still didn't have any idea*
**[21:41] Rimuru**
*that a crisis was about to befall Tempest.*
**[23:36] Great Sage**
*Next time, "Prelude to the Disaster."*
