SIGN    That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime
    Visions of Coleus
[01:30] Satoru
    Benimaru! Soei!
SIGN    Purple and Roses
[01:32] Satoru
    I'm here!
[01:37] Aslan
    Zenobia!
[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.
SIGN    Notice
[06:32] Great Sage
    This is an Isolation Barrier,
[06:33] Great Sage
    which blocks interference
    in the physical realm.

[06:36] Great Sage
    It can be destroyed using
    the unique skill Gluttony.

SIGN    It can be destroyed using
    the unique skill Gluttony.
[06:38] Great Sage
    Proceed?
SIGN    Proceed?
[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?
