    R-R-R-R-Reyhiem!
[00:41] Edmaris
    What is this?! What can we do?!
[00:43] Edmaris
    What should we do?!
[00:44] Reyhiem
    Please calm down! Please calm down!
[00:47] Razen
    Is King Edmaris safe?!
[00:49] Folgen
    What are you doing?! Protect the king!
[00:51] Soldier
    Y-Yes, sir!
[00:55] Edmaris
    F-Folgen!
[00:56] Edmaris
    Quickly... We must get
    away from here quickly!
[00:59] Edmaris
    We must return to our kingdom and regroup!
[01:02] Razen
    Agreed. We have no idea what is happening.
[01:05] Razen
    If we don't leave at once,
    we will be killed, as well.
[01:08] Edmaris
    Shogo? No, you are...
[01:11] Razen
    I am Razen, my king.
[01:13] Edmaris
    Ah, Razen!
[01:15] Edmaris
    Thank goodness you're back!
[01:16] Edmaris
    Now, we must return home, quickly!
[01:19] Edmaris
    Your transportation magic can—
[01:20] Razen
    Unfortunately, Anti-Magic Area is
    preventing me from using my magic.
[01:24] Edmaris

    Th-Then...

    Worry not, my king, Archbishop Reyhiem.
[01:31] Folgen
    I will use my unique skill, Spearhead,
[01:34] Folgen

    alive to gather together.
[01:37] Folgen
    I will use them as living shields
    to protect the two of you.
[01:41] Edmaris
    Oh! Of course! Well done, Folgen!
[01:44] Reyhiem
    We can always rely on you, Sir Folgen!
[01:46] Folgen
    I will assemble the knights.
[01:48] Folgen
    Please begin preparations to retreat.
[01:50] Reyhiem
    Understood!
[01:58] Edmaris
    We're dead!
[02:00] Edmaris
    We're all going to die!
[02:03] Reyhiem
    Th-This can't be...
[02:05] Reyhiem
    What in the world is going on?!
[02:20] Razen
    That's...
[02:22] Razen
    It can't be!
[02:30] Razen
    The ruler of the monster nation?
[02:33] Rimuru
    Your face looks Japanese.
[02:35] Rimuru
    Are you the Otherworlder
    who attacked our city?
[02:38] Razen
    Only on the outside.
    Someone different is inside.
[02:41] Rimuru
    Hmm...
[02:43] Rimuru
    Well, either way, you're still an enemy.
[02:48] Edmaris
    No! N-Not Razen, too!
[02:52] Edmaris
    It was a mistake to mess
    with the nation of monsters!
[02:56] Edmaris
    What do I do? How can I survive?!
[03:00] Edmaris
    N-No, this might be my chance!
[03:03] Edmaris
    This fool was so pleased to negotiate
    with a puny nation like Blumund.
[03:07] Edmaris
    If I, the king of the great Kingdom
    of Falmuth, offer a proposal,
[03:10] Edmaris
    he's sure to fall to his
    knees in overwhelming joy!

[03:30] Rimuru
    Merciless? What the heck is that?
[03:33] Edmaris
    Y-You are the ruler of the nation
    of monsters, are you not?!
[03:38] Edmaris
    I am Edmaris, king of
    the Kingdom of Falmuth!
[03:42] Edmaris
    Stand down! I wish to speak with you!
[03:47] Rimuru
    Are you his double or what?
[03:49] Rimuru
    Don't worry. I promised I
    wouldn't hurt the real king.
[03:52] Reyhiem
    He is not a double!
[03:54] Reyhiem
    On my name as Archbishop Reyhiem of
    the Western Holy Church, I swear it!
[04:00] Rimuru
    Well, I'm killing everyone who
    isn't the king. That okay?
[04:04] Edmaris
    K-Killing... everyone?!
[04:06] Reyhiem
    Wait! Please wait!
[04:08] Reyhiem
    Please... Please spare me, if no one else!
[04:11] Reyhiem
    I am a highly influential voice
    within the Western Holy Church!
[04:15] Reyhiem
    I can assure them that you monsters
    are not enemies to the humans!
[04:21] Edmaris
    W-Wait!
[04:22] Edmaris
    I just said I wish to speak with you!
[04:25] Rimuru
    Well, what is it? I'll listen, at least.
[04:27] Edmaris
    I-Insolence!
[04:29] Edmaris
    I am the king of the
    great Kingdom of Falmuth!
[04:32] Edmaris
    You are a creature that normally wouldn't
    even have the ability to speak!
[04:35] Edmaris
    And you—
[04:39] Rimuru
    Listen. You should think
    about who you're talking to.
[04:42] Rimuru
    I'll forgive that remark, but you'd
    better choose your words carefully.
[04:46] Edmaris
    Th-This is just a misunderstanding!
[04:49] Rimuru
    What did I misunderstand?
[04:50] Edmaris
    I-I only came here to establish
    friendly relations!
[04:54] Rimuru
    You declare war on my nation,
[04:56] Rimuru
    and you think you can get
    away with saying that now?
[04:59] Rimuru
    My comrades fell victim to your people.
[05:01] Rimuru
    That makes you my enemies.
[05:03] Edmaris
    The Western Holy Church
    perceived monsters as hostile,
[05:07] Edolamis
    so I only wanted to see for myself whether
    we could establish friendly relations with them!
[05:12] Edmaris
    And the declaration of war was just
    some Otherworlders going on a rampage!
[05:16] Edmaris
    V-Very well! My nation will enter
    diplomatic relations with yours!
[05:20] Edmaris
    Good deal, is it not? Are you not honored?
[05:23] Edmaris
    Would that not make you feel much prouder?
[05:25] Edmaris
    O-Of course, I will require compensation
    later for the losses in our ranks,
[05:28] Rimuru
    Is he some kind of genius?
[05:30] Rimuru
    How much does he think he has to piss me off?
[05:30] Edmaris
    but out of my own kindness, I will do my due
    diligence on the matter! What say you?!

[05:57] Rimuru
    Meaning?
[05:58] Great Sage
    If one loses one's will to fight
    in the face of this skill,
[06:01] Great Sage
    it will mean their death.
[06:03] Rimuru
    I see.
[06:05] Rimuru
    Anyway, do I have all the souls I need yet?
[06:08] Great Sage
    As of now, you have acquired
    57.235% of the required number.
[06:13] Rimuru
    Still not enough? Well, then...
[06:23] Rimuru
    Merciless, huh?
[06:25] Rimuru
    I doubt I'll have many chances to use it,
[06:27] Rimuru
    but it looks like its power
    will come in handy now.
[06:30] Great Sage
    Question.
[06:31] Great Sage
    Use unique skill "Merciless"?
[06:34] Rimuru
    Yes.
[06:42] Great Sage
    Through the use of the
    unique skill "Merciless,"
[06:45] Great Sage
    you have harvested the souls of all
    the humans existing in this area.
[06:49] Great Sage
    However, the individuals called Edmaris
    and Reyhiem are excluded as targets.
[06:54] Rimuru
    That's merciless, all right.

    Top-priority order.

    Take me back to the town, and keep me safe.
[07:55] Ranga
    Yes, Master!
[07:56] Rimuru
    Take those two as war prisoners.
[07:59] Ranga
    Understood.
[08:00] Ranga
    I sense some surviving enemies.
    What shall I do about them?

    Let someone else take care of that...

    Activate summon magic, Demon Summoning.

    I have awaited this day for so long.
[09:23] Black
    May I serve you from this day forward?

[13:49] Black
    I will be restraining you.
[13:52] Black
    You are welcome to resist if you wish.
[13:55] Black
    Just know that, while I won't kill you,
[13:57] Black
    I have not been ordered
    against torturing you.
[14:00] Black
    You have been warned.
[14:01] Razen
    Oh? So you are going to fight me?
[14:05] Black
    Fight you?
[14:07] Black
    What an amusing joke.
[14:09] Razen
    Why would I make jokes?
[14:11] Razen
    You're no more than a Greater Demon.
[14:15] Black
    Very good. This should be quite fun.
[14:18] Black
    I will humor you for a bit.
[14:20] Black
    It will help me work off that meal.
[14:23] Razen
    Do not underestimate me!
[14:25] Razen
    Nuclear strike magic:
[14:27] Razen
    Nuclear Cannon!
[14:35] Razen
    He turned it aside?!
[14:37] Razen
    No, trigger techniques that
    require an incantation first
[14:40] Razen
    have a very small chance of malfunctioning.
[14:44] Black
    That magic was quite impressive.
[14:48] Razen
    That one just happened to fail!
[14:49] Razen
    Then, how about this one?!
[14:51] Razen
    Spirit summoning!
[14:54] Razen
    Come, War Gnome!
[14:57] Razen
    Superior spirit of the earth,
    the source of all things!
[15:08] Black
    I see, I see.
[15:10] Black
    Indeed, demons are strong against angels,
[15:12] Black
    angels are strong against spirits,
[15:14] Black
    and spirits are strong against demons.
[15:16] Black
    If one had to make a choice
    in such a three-way stand-off,
[15:19] Black
    summoning a superior spirit
    would be the correct choice.
[15:22] Black
    However...
[15:23] Razen
    What?!
[15:25] Black
    You are too young.
[15:39] Black
    See? You haven't amassed enough experience.
[15:42] Black
    A blockhead with nothing but brute
    strength is no match for me.
[15:50] Razen
    It can't be! That was a spirit!
[15:53] Razen
    A superior spirit!
[15:57] Razen
    D-Don't tell me...
[15:58] Razen
    You're an Archdemon?!
[16:00] Black
    That's enough magic.
[16:01] Black
    I want to test this body my
    master gave me some more,
[16:05] Black
    so I will change the plan a bit.
[16:11] Razen
    Anti-Magic Area?!
[16:13] Razen
    Why did you seal off magic?
[16:15] Razen
    Isn't magic a demon's greatest weapon?!
[16:18] Black
    Please, try any physical attacks you like.
[16:23] Razen
    It doesn't matter if you're an Archdemon!
[16:25] Razen
    A demon that can't use
    magic is no match for me!
[16:29] Razen
    Unique skill: Berserker!
[16:45] Razen
    Those golden eyes...
[16:48] Razen
    The red pupils...
[16:59] Razen
    Th-This overwhelming strength...
[17:03] Razen
    N-No! It can't be!
[17:05] Razen
    Are you... th-the Primordial...
[17:10] Black
    Ah, you are well-learned.
[17:12] Black
    You must be quite clever.
[17:15] Razen
    Wh-What kind of...
[17:17] Razen
    What kind of horrific monstrosity
    has he unleashed upon this world?!
[17:31] Black
    Oh? Are we finished already?
[17:45] Black
    Well, I should report the completion
    of my first task to my master...
[17:49] Black
    to my lord... and earn his praise.

    fragment of a soul behind.

[20:11] Mjurran
    were sucked away?
[20:13] Mjurran
    Are those... spirits?
[20:34] Grucius
    An Archdemon?!
[20:38] Black
    I have returned, my lord.
[20:42] Black
    Under normal circumstances, I should
    wait until the ritual is complete,
[20:46] Black
    but please forgive my insolence in saying...
[20:48] Black
    that it appears there are not enough
    magicules to fully revive these souls.
[20:54] Raphael
    Yes.
[20:55] Raphael
    The amount of magicules here is insufficient.
[20:59] Raphael
    I will expend my life energy in substitution.
[21:01] Black
    Please wait, my lord.
[21:04] Black
    There is no need to substitute
    with your life energy.
[21:07] Black
    I have an excellent idea.
[21:10] Black
    Please use these.
[21:13] Black
    They will be honored to be of use to you.
[21:17] Black
    Nothing could make us happier.
[21:22] Raphael
    Understood.
[21:23] Raphael
    This will make it possible to
    supplement the amount of magicules.
[21:26] Raphael
    Your proposal is accepted.
[21:28] Raphael
    Beelzebub.
[21:35] Black
    Oh... I'm so envious...
[21:44] Black
    Forgive me.
[21:52] Raphael
    The required amount of
    magicules has been reached.
[21:55] Raphael
    Beginning the Secret Art
    of Spirit Resurrection.
[22:01] Raphael
    Appraisal.
[22:07] Mjurran
    The ultimate secret spirit art!
[22:10] Grucius
    This is... a newborn Demon Lord?!
[22:17] Grucius
    Even Lord Carrion couldn't do this...
[22:21] Black
    Magnificent.
[22:24] Black
    I must be accepted as his
    subordinate at any cost.
[22:29] Rimuru
    Secret Art of Spirit Resurrection.
[22:31] Rimuru
    Secret Art of Revival of the Dead.
[22:34] Rimuru
    Carrying them out requires an
    immense amount of magicules,
[22:38] Rimuru
    and the magic needed to control
    them surpasses the imagination.
[22:43] Rimuru
    The probability of success is 3.14%.
[22:47] Rimuru
    But that number was calculated
    before I became a Demon Lord.
[22:54] Rimuru
    Now that the evolution is complete...
