[00:01] (Flashback) Soei
Clayman's army will likely reach
Eurazania within two days.
[00:06] (Flashback) Rimuru
He got a step ahead of us...
[00:08] (Flashback) Rimuru
Damn that Clayman.
SIGN Animal Kingdom
of Eurazania
[00:11] Rimuru
He's even more cunning than I thought.
[00:13] Rimuru
He probably anticipated Walpurgis taking
place three nights from now, too.
[00:18] Rimuru
He's planning to finish his
slaughter in the Animal Kingdom
[00:21] Rimuru
while the other Demon Lords won't interfere.

[02:06] Veldora
So who's your fave among these?
[02:08] Veldora
I think mine's this one.
[02:09] Ramiris
Fave?
[02:12] Rimuru
Hey, Raphael-san...
[02:14] Rimuru
If all the people left in the Animal
Kingdom of Eurazania are killed,
[02:19] Rimuru
will Clayman have his awakening?
[02:22] Raphael
Answer.
SIGN Answer
[02:23] Raphael
The odds may be low,
[02:24] Raphael
but it is likely he will acquire
a vast amount of souls.
[02:28] Raphael
His chance of success is 78%.
SIGN Chance of Success
[02:31] Rimuru
That number's a lot higher than pi.
[02:34] Rimuru
I will stop him.
[02:36] Rimuru
I don't know the names or faces of
the surviving citizens of Eurazania,
[02:39] Rimuru
but our ties with them are friendly.
[02:42] Rimuru
And that's why I won't hesitate
to intervene for them.
[02:46] Albis
Great Rimuru...
[02:50] Rimuru
Benimaru.
[02:51] Benimaru
Yes?
[02:52] Rimuru
Stop him.
[02:53] Benimaru
Hell yeah! Leave it to me!
[02:55] Benimaru
Uh, I mean...
[02:56] Benimaru
You can count on me.
[02:58] Rimuru
We then started to discuss exactly
how we could stop Clayman, but...
[03:06] Rimuru
Looks like there's no way
to get there in time.
[03:09] Rimuru
If only we could send everyone
there with transport magic...
[03:13] Shuna
Great Rimuru, using transport magic
to move an army is much too dangerous.
[03:17] Rimuru
Yeah, I know. I just thought I'd—
SIGN Answer
[03:19] Raphael
Answer.
[03:20] Raphael
Transport magic can be used to
send supplies at a low cost.
[03:24] Raphael
The coordinates of the destination
are linked through another dimension,
[03:28] Raphael
but the item sent is bathed in
a massive amount of magicules,
[03:30] Raphael
so it is not recommended for
transporting organic matter.
[03:33] Raphael
However, if one can be
protected with a barrier,
[03:36] Raphael
they will not be affected by the transport.
[03:38] Raphael
This is the principle of transport magic.
[03:41] Rimuru
So, uh... what does that mean?
[03:44] Raphael
Basically, if one is a majin or a monster,
SIGN Conditions for Transport
SIGN Has resistance to magicules
SIGN Is a majin or monster
[03:46] Raphael
they will have a resistance to magicules,
SIGN Magicule Resistance
[03:48] Raphael
so if they can put up their own
barrier, they will have no problems.
SIGN Can put up their own barrier
SIGN Can be transported
using magic.
SIGN Transport Target
Race: Human
Magicule Resistance: ×
Barrier: ×
Cannot Transport
[03:53] Raphael
Alternatively, using a
Perfect Transport technique
[03:56] Raphael
to protect the target also makes it possible.

[03:59] Rimuru
Just so I know, can you make this technique?
SIGN Answer
[04:02] Raphael
Answer.
[04:03] Raphael
I have already developed it.
[04:05] Rimuru
Huh?!
SIGN Extra Skill
Control Space
Combination
[04:06] Raphael
By using it in combination with
the extra skill "Control Space,"
SIGN Extra Skill
Control Space
Magicule cost has been greatly reduced.
[04:10] Raphael
the magicule cost has been greatly reduced.
[04:13] Rimuru
You develop skills and techniques for
me, and I don't even have to ask!
[04:17] Rimuru
You're awesome, Raphael-san!
[04:18] Raphael
Thank you.
[04:20] Shuna
Great Rimuru?
[04:22] Rimuru
Shuna's right. Moving an army with
transport magic is too dangerous.
[04:26] Rimuru
But...
[04:28] Benimaru
But?
[04:30] Rimuru
I just now succeeded in developing a
new technique that makes it possible!
[04:35] Shuna
Oh!
[04:35] Shuna
What?!
[04:36] Phobio
Just now?
[04:37] Benimaru
Typical.
[04:41] Rimuru
Actually, it was Raphael-san, not me.
[04:44] Rimuru
If our whole army can get there
in time, victory is ours!
[04:47] Rimuru
I actually feel a little sorry for Clayman.
[04:49] Rimuru
If Raphael-san and I hadn't evolved,
[04:51] Rimuru
you might have won, after all.
[04:54] Rimuru
All that's left is to determine
how ready you guys are.
[04:56] Rimuru
I can send our entire army there
at once using this technique,
[04:59] Rimuru
but I haven't confirmed that it's safe.
[05:01] Rimuru
Do you still trust me?
[05:04] Benimaru
I don't even need to think it over.
[05:06] Benimaru
My loyalty is to you, Great Rimuru.
[05:08] Benimaru
As your faithful retainer,
[05:10] Benimaru
if you ordered me to die, I would die.
[05:13] Suphia
I trust you.
[05:15] Suphia
Like hell we could ever
doubt you, Great Rimuru.
[05:18] Phobio
He saved me once.
[05:20] Phobio
I won't tolerate any complaints from my men.
[05:22] Albis
Goodness. It sounds as if I have
no choice but to agree, as well.
[05:26] Albis
I will put my trust in your
strength, Great Rimuru.
[05:30] Rimuru
Okay! Your lives are safe in my hands!
[05:33] Rimuru
Now we'll get up above Clayman's plan!
[05:35] Rimuru
The rest is up to all of
you! Make sure you win!
[05:38] All
Yes, sir!
[05:39] Someone
All right!
[05:48] Rimuru
Thanks for sticking out that
long meeting, everyone.
[05:51] Rimuru
Things will start getting
rough again tomorrow, though.
[05:53] Rimuru
I'll be counting on you.
[05:54] Shuna
Of course. Leave it all to us.
[05:56] Rimuru
If I could pinpoint Clayman's location,
[05:59] Rimuru
I could raid him with Spatial
Movement and end all this.
[06:02] Shuna
But won't Clayman be attending Walpurgis?
[06:06] Shuna
You might miss him.
[06:07] Rimuru
True...
[06:08] Shion
I know!
[06:09] Rimuru
Shion!
[06:11] Shion
Why don't we crash Walpurgis
[06:13] Shion
and cut down Clayman along with any
Demon Lords who take issue with us?!
[06:17] Rimuru
Just going after Clayman would be one thing,
[06:19] Rimuru
but we don't want to start
fights with other Demon Lords.
[06:21] Shion
I... I see...
[06:23] Rimuru
Uh, but crashing the party
might be a good idea!
[06:28] Rimuru
Hey, Ramiris, could I attend the event, too?
[06:30] Rimuru
What? Attend Walpurgis?
[06:32] Rimuru
I just thought it might be interesting
to go see Clayman myself.
[06:37] Rimuru
It'd really throw him for a loop, right?
[06:39] Ramiris
Hmm...
[06:41] Ramiris
I think it'd probably be fine,
[06:43] Ramiris
but you can only take two others with you.
[06:45] Ramiris
They made that rule because of some
problems that came up in the past.
[06:51] Rimuru
What do you think?
[06:54] Diablo
A splendid idea.
[06:56] Diablo
When the time comes, I shall accompany—
[06:58] Shion
Diablo, you fool!
[07:00] Shion
I shall be accompanying him!
I will not budge on this!
[07:02] Diablo
Although, if it comes to a fight,
he need only mow them down.
[07:07] Diablo
Great Rimuru could surely handle it alone.
[07:09] Shion
Exactly!
[07:11] Shion
I thought you were a fool, but for
a newcomer, you do show promise!
[07:21] Rimuru
They seem to be hitting it off...
[07:23] Rimuru
Hang on, now. Don't rush things.
[07:25] Rimuru
Nothing's decided yet.
[07:26] Rimuru
Also, I asked you to help
with the Kingdom of Falmuth,
[07:29] Rimuru
so I can't take you with me anyway.
[07:31] Diablo
True. Understood.
[07:34] Shuna
But... it will still be dangerous, won't it?
[07:37] Benimaru
No.
[07:39] Benimaru
I doubt Lady Milim betrayed us,
[07:41] Benimaru
but if nothing else, it's true that
she sold out Demon Lord Carrion.
[07:45] Benimaru
I don't think it would be a bad idea
to look into that at Walpurgis.
[07:49] Ramiris
That's right!
[07:51] Ramiris
There's no way Milim would
ever take orders from Clayman.
[07:56] Ramiris
I mean, Milim only looks out for herself!
[07:59] Rimuru
Are you in any position to
accuse someone of that?
[08:02] Shion
It's unthinkable that Lady Milim
would betray Great Rimuru!
[08:06] Shion
It's only a baseless hunch, but I'm
convinced there can be no doubt!
[08:09] Rimuru
Baseless, huh?
[08:12] Rimuru
Well, to be honest, I don't feel
like I've been betrayed, either.
[08:16] Rimuru
I'm going to have faith in Milim.
[08:19] Rimuru
But that doesn't mean I
think we should do nothing.
[08:23] Rimuru
What Ramiris said about the mastermind...
[08:25] Rimuru
or at least, the cause of this
being Clayman, was good insight.
[08:29] Ramiris
Right? Right, right?!
[08:31] Ramiris
Of course Great Detective
Ramiris's judgment was correct!
[08:35] Treyni
Naturally.
[08:36] Trya
Wonderful work, Lady Ramiris.
[08:41] Rimuru
So that's why I want to attend Walpurgis
and try to get some answers.
[08:47] Rimuru
The question is who to take...
[08:54] Rimuru
If I don't take her,
she'll probably go bananas.
[08:56] Rimuru
Well, it might give her a chance to get
revenge on Clayman for killing her.
[09:02] Rimuru
Okay. I'll take Shion and Ranga with me.
[09:05] Shion
Thank you so much!
[09:06] Ranga
You can count on me, Master!
[09:11] Veldora
So you're up to it now, eh?
[09:13] Veldora
Rimuru! Don't leave me out like that!
[09:15] Veldora
I'm going with you, as well!
[09:18] Veldora
Demon Lords don't scare me!
[09:20] Rimuru
Just hang on a sec, Veldora.
[09:22] Rimuru
I want you to stay here
and protect this city.
[09:25] Veldora
What?!
[09:26] Veldora
But I could destroy a Demon Lord
with one little squeeze!
[09:29] Rimuru
Protecting this city is
an important job, too.
[09:32] Rimuru
Actually, it's the most important job of all.
[09:35] Veldora
Hm?
[09:36] Veldora
The most important?
[09:38] Rimuru
Yeah, so I need you to stay here. Okay?
[09:40] Ramiris
Hey, Rimuru!
[09:42] Ramiris
Master can come along as my subordinate!
[09:45] Ramiris
Then, I'll be safe, too!
[09:47] Veldora
No, I have no interest in
going along to protect you.
[09:52] Ramiris
What?! Come on! Don't be mean, Master!
[09:56] Rimuru
Wait, why is she calling him "Master"?
[09:59] Rimuru
Veldora, spreading the word about
you is actually part of the plan.
[10:03] Rimuru
We talked about that at the meeting,
so you know about it, right?
[10:07] Veldora
Yes! Of course I do!
[10:10] Veldora
Uh-oh... I can't tell him I wasn't listening!
[10:14] Rimuru
And this is what Clayman will probably think:
[10:18] Rimuru
"This majin called Rimuru is merely a small
fry borrowing the authority of Veldora."
[10:22] Veldora
What?!
[10:24] Veldora
Damn that Clayman! I'll make him pay!
[10:26] Shion
That insect ought to learn his place!
[10:28] Shion
It seems I need to go there
and kill him after all!
[10:33] Benimaru
Sheesh...
[10:34] Benimaru
Calm down, Shion.
[10:36] Benimaru
Great Rimuru was only
speaking hypothetically.
[10:38] Rimuru
Putting them on their guard by taking
Veldora would defeat the purpose, right?
[10:43] Veldora
Oh? So that's what you meant.
[10:45] Shion
That's our Great Rimuru!
[10:48] Diablo
The mere fact that he could belittle
Great Rimuru is unforgivable.
[10:51] Diablo
I would like to purge him with
my own hands, but this time...
[10:55] Diablo
I will support my senior secretary.
[10:56] Shion
Oh, so you do get it!
[11:00] Rimuru
Are these two actually good friends?
[11:03] Shion
So you plan to gain an advantage in
negotiation by making him let his guard down?
[11:07] Shuna
Won't that be dangerous, too?
[11:09] Rimuru
It'll be fine.
[11:10] Rimuru
I can actually call Veldora with
my Summon Storm Dragon skill.
[11:14] Veldora
What?! You can?!
[11:16] Rimuru
If things get too dicey,
I'll ask for your help.
[11:19] Rimuru
I just want you to quietly
protect this city until then.
[11:24] Veldora
I get it! I'm the hero
who arrives on a delay!
[11:28] Ramiris
That's so unfair.
[11:29] Rimuru
I'd rather hear you call it clever.
[11:31] Rimuru
Besides, that frees up one of your
two attendant slots, doesn't it?
[11:36] Ramiris
Hey, you do get it, Rimuru!
[11:38] Ramiris
So who are you sending with me, then?
[11:41] Rimuru
Well, I think Hakuro—
[11:42] Treyni
Wait a moment!
[11:44] Treyni
Great Rimuru, please
appoint me for this task.
[11:49] Ramiris
Treyni...
[11:51] Ramiris
I can't believe you would...
[11:53] Trya
I wish to ask the same of you.
[11:55] Trya
Please allow my sister to
accompany Lady Ramiris.
[12:04] Rimuru
Okay, Treyni-san, if you would.
[12:10] Treyni
Of course!
[12:11] Ramiris
Treyni!
[12:13] Rimuru
I will take Shion and Ranga to Walpurgis,
[12:17] Rimuru
and Ramiris will take Beretta and Treyni-san.
[12:22] Rimuru
And the ace up our sleeve
will be the Veldora summon!
[12:32] Rimuru
Leon Cromwell, the Demon Lord that
Shizu-san had a history with,
[12:36] Rimuru
will probably be at Walpurgis, too.
[12:39] Rimuru
But our target this time
is Clayman and no one else.
[12:47] Rimuru
Clayman, you've made an enemy of me.
[12:50] Rimuru
If it's a fight you want,
you'd better be ready.
[12:53] Rimuru
And if you're gonna mess with my friends,
[12:55] Rimuru
I'll just have to make
sure you pay the price.
SIGN City of the Forgotten Dragon
[13:09] Middray
Argh! Those detestable bastards!
[13:12] Middray
How dare they mock us with
suggestions of cooperation?!
[13:15] Hermes
Father Middray, we need to
just do as they say this time.
[13:19] Hermes
Their commander, Yamza, had a
written order from Lady Milim.
[13:24] Middray
Quiet, Hermes. I know that.
You don't need to tell me.
[13:28] Hermes
Destroying Eurazania... I guess even
Lady Milim has some issues, huh?
[13:32] Middray
Watch your tongue, Hermes!
[13:34] Middray
Never doubt the actions of Lady Milim!
[13:37] Hermes
Uh... I know, but...
[13:39] Hermes
It's because he's so soft on her
that I have to suffer all the time.
[13:43] Middray
Still, the nerve of that damn Clayman!
[13:46] Middray
Imagine forcing Lady Milim to
write an order like that...
[13:50] Hermes
I know.
[13:51] Hermes
But it was definitely her handwriting,
[13:53] Hermes
and since it's an order, we have no choice.
[13:55] Hermes
Clayman's army ate the entire contents
of our third food storehouse.
[14:00] Hermes
We only have seven left.
[14:02] Hermes
We're gonna have a rough time
until the next harvest season.
[14:05] Middray
Bastards!
[14:11] Hermes
A red melon...
[14:19] Middray
Yamza, the Magic Swordsman of Ice...
[14:22] Middray
Hermes, stand strong.
[14:25] Hermes
Understood.
[14:31] Yamza
Father Middray, thank you
for supplying us with food.
[14:35] Yamza
When you have an army of 30,000 to feed,
[14:38] Yamza
there is never enough to go around.
[14:42] Middray
I'm honored to be of help.
[14:45] Middray
But unfortunately, we cannot afford
to supply you with any more.
[14:50] Middray
It would sadden Lady Milim
if the people went hungry...
[14:54] Yamza
What are you talking about?!
[14:55] Yamza
Demon Lord Milim made her choice!
[14:58] Yamza
Shouldn't you be treating us,
the ones cleaning up her mess,
[15:02] Yamza
with the greatest courtesy?
[15:06] Yamza
Well?
[15:09] Middray
Please, forgive me.
[15:11] Middray
I was unable to think of
anyone but our own people.
[15:15] Middray
We will do anything we can to assist you,
[15:17] Middray
so do not hesitate to ask.
[15:20] Hermes
He didn't turn into a melon...
[15:22] Hermes
Well, if he lost his temper now,
[15:23] Hermes
these guys would probably use it as
an excuse to wipe out this country.
[15:27] Yamza
Is that so? Then I'll give you
an opportunity to help us.
[15:32] Yamza
You can at least transport
supplies for us, can't you?
[15:35] Hermes
W-Wait just a moment!
[15:37] Hermes
You stole our food, and now
you want to take our labor—
[15:47] Yamza
Shut up, trash.
[15:55] Yamza
Oh? Still don't know your place?
[15:57] Yamza
I guess you want to die.
[16:00] Hermes
He's on a damn power trip!
[16:13] Middray
I do beg your pardon, Sir Yamza.
[16:16] Middray
I will give this fool a good talking-to.
[16:19] Middray
For my sake, please forgive him.
[16:22] Yamza
Hmph. It's not easy having
idiots among your ranks.
[16:25] Yamza
I'll let it slide just this once.
[16:27] Yamza
We'll be departing tomorrow morning.
[16:29] Yamza
All of you priests had
better get ready quick.
[16:47] Middray
You fool. This is why I warned you.
[16:50] Hermes
I'm sorry... I couldn't stop myself.
[16:53] Middray
Holy Magic: Recovery.
[17:00] Middray
Well, no matter.
[17:01] Middray
Even with the priests away, the people
won't face immediate hardship.
[17:05] Middray
But curse that man!
[17:07] Middray
How dare he hurt Lady Milim's people?!
[17:10] Hermes
Father Middray...
[17:11] Hermes
You kicked the stuffing out of me, too.
[17:14] Hermes
You said it. Hey, can I kill him?
[17:18] Middray
Fool! You could never best him!
[17:20] Hermes
You're right. His sword is trouble,
[17:23] Hermes
and it seemed like he was
hiding something else, too.
[17:25] Middray
Yes. Typical of a confidant of that
underhanded Demon Lord Clayman.
[17:28] Middray
It seems he won't show us his hand so easily!
[17:30] Middray
A true man would achieve
victory by baring all!
[17:34] Hermes
True.
[17:37] Middray
We must prepare for departure.
[17:41] Hermes
Right.
[17:45] Middray
Still, I wonder why
Lady Milim has not returned...
[17:52] Rimuru
Hmm...
[17:53] Rimuru
How can we protect the people of Eurazania?
[17:57] Rimuru
Is there a safe place for them?
[17:59] Raphael
Suggestion.
[18:00] Raphael
The most efficient choice would be to
transport all the people to one place.
[18:04] Rimuru
Huh?
[18:05] Rimuru
Oh, yeah! That's it!
[18:07] Rimuru
Yeah, you're right!
[18:09] Rimuru
The army isn't the only
thing we can transport!
[18:12] Rimuru
You've done it again, Raphael-san!
It's just like Columbus's egg!
[18:16] Raphael
It is nothing so phenomenal.
[18:18] Rimuru
R-Really?
[18:19] Rimuru
Anyway, we just need to move
the citizens here first!
[18:23] Rimuru
All right!
[18:25] Rimuru
So I gave Geld the order,
[18:27] Rimuru
and within a few hours, we made preparations
to accept a lot of refugees.
[18:32] Rimuru
I immediately made use of my new technique
[18:35] Rimuru
and sent the people of Eurazania
to Tempest in quick succession.
[18:39] Rimuru
Since I had Phobio with me,
[18:41] Rimuru
they all listened willingly
to what I had to say,
[18:44] Rimuru
and the whole process went smoothly.
[18:47] Rimuru
We continued to transport more and
more of them in without rest...
[18:51] Rimuru
and by morning, all those remaining
in Eurazania had been transported.
[18:59] Rimuru
You doing okay?
[19:01] Phobio
I'm pretty tired...
[19:03] Phobio
How are you not, after using transport
magic continuously on such a huge scale?
[19:08] Rimuru
Well, that's because...
[19:09] Phobio
Because?
[19:11] Rimuru
I'm the leader of Tempest!
[19:14] Phobio
That's not an answer at all.
[19:17] Phobio
But I suppose that must be why.
[19:21] Rimuru
Anyway! We don't have time to take breaks!
[19:24] Rimuru
There's still more I need you guys to do!
[19:27] Phobio
Right.
[19:28] Rimuru
Yes...
[19:30] Rimuru
The battle against Clayman's
army still awaits us.
[19:43] Rimuru
Our forces consist of 10,000 Lycanthropes,
SIGN The Animal King's Brigade
[19:47] Rimuru
led by Eurazania's Three Beastketeers,
Albis, Suphia, and Phobio...
[19:52] Rimuru
The Goblin Riders, led by Gobta...
[19:56] Rimuru
and a team of Ogres who serve
as Benimaru's personal guard,
[19:59] Rimuru
a team we call Kurenai.
[20:02] Rimuru
We also have 4,000 Hobgoblins,
[20:05] Rimuru
a team we call the Green Numbers...
[20:08] Rimuru
5,000 High Orcs led by Geld,
[20:11] Rimuru
the Yellow Numbers...
[20:13] Rimuru
and the Dragonewts led by
Gabiru, known as Hiryu.
[20:17] Rimuru
That's a total of 20,000 soldiers.
[20:20] Rimuru
And protecting Tempest is
Shion's personal guard,
[20:24] Rimuru
numbering about 100.
[20:25] Rimuru
Since they're the ons
I brought back to life,
[20:28] Rimuru
I named their team Yomigaeri.
[20:31] Benimaru
Great Rimuru!
[20:33] Benimaru
Everyone is here.
[20:34] Benimaru
We are ready.
[20:36] Rimuru
Okay. Then, let's get you all transported.
[20:40] Albis
Great Rimuru.
[20:42] Albis
We will never forget your kindness.
[20:44] Suphia
Now we'll be able to beat up Clayman's
henchmen without worrying about a thing.
[20:49] Suphia
We'll leave Clayman himself to you.
[20:51] Suphia
Make sure you pummel him on our behalf, too!
[21:04] Rimuru
I'm counting on you.
[21:07] Shion
There's no need to show
them any mercy, Benimaru!
[21:13] Diablo
Trash must be disposed of quickly,
before it starts to stink.
[21:17] Shuna
Be careful!
[21:18] Benimaru
We'll give him a taste of Hell
so he won't ever defy you again.
[21:22] Rimuru
Good.
[21:24] Rimuru
Now, win!
[21:26] All
Yes, sir! We will bring you victory!
[22:03] Rimuru
Please win this battle safely.
[23:37] Raphael
Next time, "The Demon Lords."
