[00:15] Rimuru     I made a crystal orb using Beretta's     Chaos Core as a reference, [00:19] Rimuru     and Treyni-san inhabited it, soul and all. [00:26] Rimuru     Then I enveloped it in aura equivalent     to the holy energy in it. [00:36] Rimuru     I placed the complete Chaos Core [00:38] Rimuru     inside a doll made from the Dryas,     Treyni-san's original body. [01:10] Treyni     Thank you, Great Rimuru. [01:12] Treyni     I've successfully evolved     into a Dryas Doll Dryad. [01:15] Treyni     Now I can accompany     Lady Ramiris without any concerns. [01:20] Ramiris     So Treyni can move around freely now? [01:24] Ramiris     And she can leave the Forest of Jura now?! [01:27] Rimuru     Yeah. Walpurgis is held in a     specially prepared dimension, [01:32] Rimuru     and there's a chance Treyni-san     wouldn't be able to enter it, [01:35] Rimuru     so it's just in case. [01:37] Ramiris     That's great, Treyni! [01:39] Treyni     Yes, Lady Ramiris. [01:42] Rimuru     Thus our preparations steadily continue. [01:45] Rimuru     The Demon Lords' banquet,     Walpurgis, is this evening. [01:49] Rimuru     The time has finally come     to settle all of our scores. SIGN    That Time I Got     Reincarnated as a Slime SIGN    Episode 43: The Signal to Begin the Banquet [03:26] Benimaru     The venue has been created at the     entrance to the Great Forest of Jura. [03:30] Rimuru     Okay. [03:31] Benimaru     Our quick-footed Lycanthrope     soldiers, disguised as refugees, [03:35] Benimaru     will pretend to flee while luring     the enemy into Geld's trap, [03:38] Benimaru     where we will round them all up. [03:40] Geld     The barren wasteland that was once my home, [03:44] Geld     the ruins of the former Orc Kingdom of Orbic, [03:47] Geld     will soon become a graveyard     for Clayman's forces. [03:54] Rimuru     So a nation that fell     victim to Clayman's scheme [03:56] Rimuru     will be the site of the final battle... [04:00] Rimuru     What goes around comes around, huh? [04:02] Geld     Yes. [04:03] Benimaru     We have seen all there is to     see of the enemy's strength. [04:06] Benimaru     Our victory is assured. [04:08] Rimuru     But the battle hasn't even started yet! [04:10] Rimuru     You're awfully confident, aren't you? [04:13] Benimaru     When you awakened, [04:14] Benimaru     I acquired the gift of my     unique skill "Born Leader." [04:18] Benimaru     It allows me to read the enemy's every     move as clearly as the flow of a river. [04:23] Rimuru     Sheesh... [04:25] Rimuru     Well, I guess that's Benimaru all over. [04:30] Benimaru     On that note, I've come up with a strategy. [04:33] Rimuru     What is it? [04:34] Benimaru     Given the occasion, [04:36] Benimaru     I thought we could destroy Clayman's castle     that is said to lie beyond the mist. [04:40] Rimuru     Given what occasion? [04:41] Rimuru     That seems kinda dangerous. [04:43] Benimaru     Not to worry. [04:44] Benimaru     Soei and Hakuro will be     the ones to infiltrate it. [04:46] Benimaru     They are both eager to— [04:48] Shuna     Wait, Brother! [04:50] Benimaru     Okay... What is it, Shuna? [04:52] Shuna     Do you even have to ask? [04:54] Shuna     The Demon Lord Clayman has a very dangerous     power that allows him to control others! [04:59] Shuna     What if he took control of Soei or Hakuro? [05:03] Benimaru     He won't. They're not going to— [05:05] Shuna     No! [05:07] Shuna     If you insist on doing this... [05:10] Shuna     I will go, as well. [05:11] Rimuru     Whoa, hang on! [05:13] Shuna     That is my decision, Great Rimuru. [05:15] Shuna     Please grant me permission to deploy. [05:20] Rimuru     I don't want to send Shuna     right into danger... [05:24] Rimuru     But... [05:25] Rimuru     He's right that our best chance to attack     Clayman's castle is while he's away. [05:31] Soei     Great Rimuru. [05:33] Soei     You need not worry. [05:35] Soei     I will protect Princess Shuna myself. [05:37] Hakuro     I will be there, as well. [05:39] Hakuro     It is possible Lord Carrion is being     held in the enemy's castle keep. [05:43] Hakuro     It seems an investigation is necessary. [05:46] Shuna     Great Rimuru, I'm angry, too. [05:49] Shuna     I'm struggling to suppress my desire     to see Clayman pay for his actions! [05:53] Rimuru     O-Okay, okay. I know how you feel. [05:58] Rimuru     All right. I'll allow you to join them. [06:02] Shuna     Thank you! [06:04] Rimuru     Shuna's safety is your top priority. [06:06] Rimuru     Got it? [06:07] Benimaru     Thank you for accommodating     Shuna's selfish whims. [06:10] Shuna     I can transport, so if there's     any trouble, I'll be fine. [06:15] Hakuro     True. I would likely be     slower to escape than her. [06:20] Soei     We have resistance to mind attacks, [06:24] Soei     so it's unlikely we would     be in danger regardless, [06:26] Soei     but with Princess Shuna there,     we have no reason for concern. [06:29] Soei     As for Lord Carrion, we will decide     what to do once we locate him. [06:33] Rimuru     Make sure you're always     aware of what's happening. [06:35] Rimuru     Our plan will be set in motion     the moment the new day begins, [06:38] Rimuru     right before Walpurgis starts. Got it? [06:41] All     Understood. [06:43] Soei     Also, there are only 100 Dragon     Faithful among Clayman's forces. [06:48] Rimuru     What are Dragon Faithful? [06:50] Soei     Those who worship Milim, the Dragon Princess. [06:53] Rimuru     Hmm... Milim's subordinates, huh? [06:56] Rimuru     Wait, I thought she didn't     have subordinates... [06:59] Rimuru     So does that mean they just     choose to worship her? [07:04] Rimuru     Well, just 100 of them     shouldn't be a problem. [07:06] Soei     Indeed. [07:07] Shuna     Now, let's get you all ready. [07:10] Shuna     Stay still, okay? [07:43] Benimaru     As we planned, Clayman's forces     are being lured into Geld's trap. [07:48] Benimaru     We'll find it harder to lose than to win. [07:50] Albis     This battle is as good as over. [07:52] Albis     After all this, the enemy     will have no way to recover. [07:56] Benimaru     Oh, Miss Albis. [07:58] Albis     Please call me "Albis," Sir Benimaru. [08:03] Benimaru     You're not my subordinate. [08:05] Albis     Yes, that is true. [08:07] Albis     But for the moment, we Lycanthropes are     entrusting you with the command of our ranks. [08:12] Benimaru     I see. [08:14] Benimaru     Very well. For the duration of this campaign, [08:16] Benimaru     I appoint you as my aide. [08:18] Albis     I accept, Sir Benimaru. [08:21] Benimaru     That said, there isn't much work left to do. [08:24] Benimaru     Our victory is already in sight. [08:27] Albis     Yes, I agree. [08:29] Albis     However... [08:31] Albis     It seems a few powerful     adversaries still remain. [08:34] Benimaru     Yes. Once we've grasped the course of events, [08:37] Benimaru     we'll send in Geld's team. [08:38] Suphia     Hang on! Let us handle that mission! [08:42] Phobio     Please, Supreme Commander! [08:44] Phobio     This is the Lycanthropes' homeland. [08:46] Phobio     If we let you do everything,     Lord Carrion will be furious with us! [08:53] Albis     Sir Benimaru, we will entrust     the command of the army to you, [08:57] Albis     so please give the three of us the order     to eliminate the leader of the enemy army. [09:02] Both     Please! [09:04] Benimaru     Did you let me take the role of supreme     commander so you could do this? [09:07] Albis     Oh? Whatever do you mean? [09:13] Benimaru     All right. [09:14] Benimaru     I had planned to include you     three in the attack, anyway. [09:19] Benimaru     But if it starts to look like you     can't win, withdraw immediately. [09:22] Benimaru     There are some among the enemy ranks     that we cannot be careless with. [09:26] Albis     Yes, we are aware. [09:29] Suphia     The trap should be activated soon. [09:31] Albis     What will we do with those     who are caught in the trap? [09:34] Benimaru     I'd like to say we'll kill them all, [09:37] Benimaru     but I'm going to leave that     decision to you Lycanthropes. [09:39] Albis     What do you mean? [09:41] Benimaru     Any who lose the will to defy     us will be taken prisoner. [09:44] Benimaru     Great Rimuru most likely intends     to make laborers of them. [09:50] Benimaru     You want to rebuild your capital, don't you? [09:53] Benimaru     You'll want as many hands as you can get. [09:56] Albis     He even thought of that? [09:58] Albis     Even against the henchmen of someone     as cunning as Demon Lord Clayman, [10:01] Albis     he even thought ahead to what     would follow our victory? [10:04] Albis     How is he so confident? [10:06] Benimaru     Of course, that's only if everything     goes according to plan. [10:12] Benimaru     It's time. [10:14] Benimaru     Geld, begin. [10:17] Geld     Understood. [10:19] Geld     Begin! [10:20] Orcs     Yes, sir! [10:35] Soldier     What's happening?! [10:36] Soldier     Is this... [10:46] Soldier     That was too close! [10:50] Gabiru     Don't let a single man escape! [10:51] Sukero     Yeah, we know! [10:55] Gabiru     Vortex Crash! [11:04] Yashichi     Sir Gabiru, you're so awesome! [11:06] Yashichi     Hey, watch it! [11:35] Albis     I didn't expect it to be this one-sided... [11:37] Benimaru     We've won. [11:40] Albis     That was truly brilliant. [11:43] Benimaru     Of course. [11:44] Benimaru     That's exactly why we can't get careless. [11:47] Benimaru     I'm just going to do my job. [11:49] Benimaru     Albis, Suphia, Phobio,     the Three Beastketeers... [11:52] Benimaru     I permit the three of you to act on your own. [11:55] Benimaru     Go and defeat the enemy leader! [11:57] Suphia     I've been waiting for you to say that! [11:58] Phobio     We finally get to bust some heads! [12:01] Phobio     I can smell the bastards who framed me. [12:03] Phobio     I'm going after them. [12:05] Albis     Then I will go, as well. We leave     the rest to you, Sir Benimaru. [12:09] Benimaru     Go! [12:11] Three     Yes, sir! [12:28] Gabiru     We shall assist you, Lady Suphia! [12:30] Suphia     Oh, Gabiru! Thanks a lot! [12:32] Suphia     You might end up drawing     the short straw, though. [12:35] Gabiru     No matter! [12:36] Gabiru     Boys, prepare yourselves! [12:38] Both     Yes, sir! [12:52] Hermes     Father Middray, this looks bad. [12:55] Hermes     We're clearly fighting a losing battle. [12:58] Hermes     We thought we'd gotten the jump on them, [13:00] Hermes     but once it started, we were already behind. [13:05] Middray     Weak... [13:07] Middray     They are too weak. [13:10] Middray     Are the Demon Lord Clayman's     men truly this weak?! [13:13] Hermes     No, no! They're really not! [13:15] Hermes     The enemy just had a better strategy! [13:18] Middray     Fool! [13:20] Middray     When they use underhanded strategies, [13:21] Middray     we need only break through them by force! [13:23] Hermes     That might work for personal     feuds and quarrels, [13:26] Hermes     but victory in a war between armies this     size comes down to leadership skills! [13:31] Hermes     The enemy this time had a trap ready     for us. Of course they'll win. [13:34] Middray     Hmph! No need to tell me that. [13:37] Middray     Anyone could figure that out just by looking! [13:39] Hermes     More importantly— [13:40] Middray     I know. [13:44] Middray     They are strong. [13:46] Middray     This isn't what I wanted, but if they're     coming for us, we have no choice. [13:50] Middray     We'll take them on. [13:53] Hermes     You're really into this... [13:57] Hermes     Understood, Father. [14:10] Phobio     Gotcha. [14:16] Phobio     Hey there. You took great care     of me last time we met... [14:19] Phobio     Tear the Teardrop and     Footman the Angry Pierrot. [14:24] Footman     What's this? Well, if it isn't Sir Phobio! [14:28] Tear     Sir Phobio, the guy who failed     to become a Demon Lord! [14:31] Tear     Sir Phobio, the guy who lost to Lady Milim! [14:35] Tear     Back then... [14:37] Tear     You did such a good job for us! Thank you! [14:41] Phobio     Glad to see you remember me. [14:44] Phobio     I would've felt bad if you never     even knew why I killed you. [14:49] Tear     What's this? Why in the world is he so angry? [14:52] Footman     What a mystery. [14:54] Footman     What is this fool so angry about? [14:58] Tear     Why? Why? I wonder why? [15:00] Footman     His outrage is certainly delicious, [15:03] Footman     but I see no reason why the two     of us should have to be killed. [15:07] Tear     Right? Right? [15:09] Phobio     Shut up! [15:10] Phobio     I know I was an idiot to let you trick me, [15:12] Phobio     but idiots don't need a reason to get even! [15:17] Tear     Wow, you want to fight us? [15:20] Tear     But you're so weak. Don't hurt yourself. [15:25] Footman     Don't say that, Tear. [15:26] Footman     Sir Phobio did his best to come     up with a joke and make us laugh. [15:33] Footman     He's fast! [15:48] Footman     Well, well... [15:50] Geld     Long time no see, Footman. [15:52] Geld     Do you remember me? [15:54] Footman     I believe you are the Orc General, yes? [15:57] Footman     Goodness, how impressive you look now! [16:02] Geld     Sir Benimaru ordered me     to come and assist you. [16:05] Phobio     Thanks, Geld! I appreciate it! [16:10] Geld     They should be worthy prey for me. [16:16] Guy     Reporting! [16:17] Guy     Suphia, the White Tiger Claw of the Three     Beastketeers, has been spotted at our rear! [16:20] Guy     And Phobio, the Black Leopard Fang,     is in the forest to the east! [16:24] Guy     What? The Three Beastketeers?! [16:26] Yamza     What now? I guess we'll have to     rely on Adalmann, the Index Finger. [16:30] Yamza     But there's no way we can get Adalmann     all the way out here quickly. [16:35] Yamza     We're past the point where we can     even talk about bouncing back. [16:39] Yamza     Lord Clayman only acknowledges     his most capable subordinates. [16:42] Yamza     The moment our loss is assured, if I make     it back alive, I'll just be executed. [16:47] Yamza     And I don't want to somehow survive only     to be turned into a soulless puppet! [16:53] Yamza     Which means my own safety     must be my top priority. [16:57] Yamza     As much as it annoys me,     I'll admit defeat in this battle. [17:02] Yamza     But I'll be the one to win in the end! [17:06] Yamza     Buy us time. [17:08] Yamza     I'm going to return home     and bring Adalmann here. [17:11] Guy     Adalmann?! [17:12] Guy     The White King? [17:14] Guy     But he can't leave his current location, can he? [17:17] Yamza     He can summon the spirits of     the dead to rebuild our forces. [17:21] Yamza     I will bring him here, whatever it takes. [17:24] Yamza     Take command while I'm away. [17:26] Guy     Y-Yes, sir! [17:30] Yamza     Since I voluntarily swore loyalty, I'm not     under constant watch, like the other Fingers. [17:36] Yamza     If I cover my tracks, [17:38] Yamza     even Lord Clayman won't be able to follow me. [17:40] Yamza     I'd love to be at the     top of the Five Fingers, [17:43] Yamza     but I can't do that if I'm dead. [17:45] Yamza     If I curry favor with     some other Demon Lord... [17:56] Yamza     My transport magic won't activate? [17:59] Yamza     Is it spatial interference?! [18:02] Yamza     Hey! The enemy is near— [18:06] Yamza     Paralysis, poison... and petrification?! [18:10] Yamza     Impossible! They were all     fine just a moment ago! [18:28] Yamza     Albis! [18:31] Yamza     This entire area is under her control now! [18:40] Yamza     Very well, then.     I'll give you a serious fight. [18:48] Yamza     I have to survive this [18:50] Yamza     and make my comeback, whatever it takes! [18:53] Yamza     Albis, greatest of all the majin     in service to Demon Lord Carrion... [18:57] Yamza     As one of the intrepid Three Beastketeers, [19:00] Yamza     you will agree to a one-on-one     battle with me, will you not? [19:03] Albis     Yes, I certainly will, [19:05] Albis     Yamza the Magic Swordsman of Ice, of the     Five Fingers in service to Demon Lord Clayman. [19:10] Albis     I will show you just how     far apart in skill we are. [19:14] Albis     Perhaps that will show you how     superior Lord Carrion is to Clayman. [19:48] Albis     Fool! You really think such     a pathetic plan will work?! [19:58] Yamza     You're mine! [20:06] Gobta     A cowardly move like that isn't very manly. [20:10] Yamza     Damn it! Who the hell are you?! [20:12] Gobta     I'm Gobta! [20:14] Gobta     I was hiding nearby in case     something like this happened! [20:22] Albis     My, even I didn't know about this? [20:24] Albis     That explains why I thought     I sensed something strange. [20:29] Gobta     Benimaru ordered me to do it! [20:31] Gobta     Also, you noticed us from     the start, didn't you? [20:35] Yamza     Weakling! Stay out of my way! [20:45] Yamza     His power is as great as my ice sword's?! [20:48] Yamza     Impertinent little weakling! [20:51] Gobta     This isn't good. [20:53] Gobta     I made it that time because     he happened to use magic, [20:55] Gobta     but if he stabs me with     that sword, I'm a goner! [20:57] Gobta     I can just run away now, right? [21:00] Gobta     Mop up all of the enemy majin! [21:03] Gobta     Yamza's strong, so don't mess with— [21:08] Yamza     He actually dodged my attack?! [21:10] Gobta     That was too close! [21:15] Yamza     Planting helpers for a one-on-one fight? [21:17] Yamza     How far the Three Beastketeers have fallen. [21:19] Gobta     Okay, I'll be the referee     for this one-on-one fight! [21:23] Gobta     Perfect! Now I won't have     to fight that scary majin! [21:28] Albis     Oh? [21:29] Albis     I'm willing to concede to you. [21:31] Gobta     No, no! I'll be the one to hold back here! [21:33] Gobta     You can fight to your heart's content! [21:36] Gobta     Sorry for interrupting! [21:41] Gobta     Whew, thank goodness! [21:43] Gobta     Now I've done my job! [21:45] Gobta     There's no way I could take that guy on!
