[00:02] Rimuru
    As Benimaru and the others
    were facing Clayman's forces,
[00:06] Rimuru
    we were making preparations
    to attend Walpurgis.
[00:11] Shuna
    Oh, you look fantastic, Great Rimuru!
[00:13] Shion
    Yes! Just wonderful!
[00:15] Ranga
    That dignified look!
    It suits you perfectly, Master!
[00:20] Rimuru
    R-Really?
[00:22] Shion
    Princess Shuna, you look lovely, too!
[00:27] Shuna
    Thank you.
[00:29] Shuna
    Well, then, I'll be going now.
[00:34] Shion
    Princess Shuna!
[00:35] Shion
    Go beat the stuffing out
    of Clayman's minions!
[00:38] Ranga
    For us, as well!
[00:40] Shuna
    I will.
[00:41] Rimuru
    Be careful.
[00:43] Shuna
    I will. And you, as well, Great Rimuru.
[00:58] Rimuru
    It's almost time to go, and they
    all look completely relaxed...
[01:03] Rimuru
    Hey, so there are ten Demon Lords, right?
[01:06] Rimuru
    There's Milim, Ramiris, Leon,
    Carrion, Frey, Clayman...
[01:11] Rimuru
    What are the other four like?
[01:13] Veldora
    I have no interest in small fry.
[01:16] Veldora
    But, two or three millennia ago, I did
    fight a female vampire Demon Lord.
[01:21] Rimuru
    A female Demon Lord?
[01:23] Veldora
    She was a woman who couldn't take a joke.
[01:25] Veldora
    I burned down their city,
    and they got all furious.
[01:28] Rimuru
    That would make anyone furious!
[01:31] Veldora
    R-Right...
[01:32] Veldora
    Looking back now, I do feel
    slightly bad about it.
[01:36] Rimuru
    Just slightly?
[01:38] Veldora
    I believe her name was... Lu...
[01:40] Veldora
    Lurus? No, I think it was Milis.
[01:44] Veldora
    I wasn't taking it seriously, but she was
    strong enough to be a playmate for me,
[01:48] Veldora
    so you'd best be careful.
[01:50] Ramiris
    A man named Roy Valentine has been the Demon
    Lord of that nation for about 1,500 years now.
[01:56] Rimuru
    So he took over for her?
[01:57] Veldora
    Ooh!
[01:58] Rimuru
    What?!
[01:59] Veldora
    I can't believe a new
    enemy is showing up now!
[02:02] Veldora
    What a cliffhanger to end this issue on!
[02:04] Rimuru
    Take this seriously or I'll spoil it for you!
[02:07] Veldora
    No need to be so touchy.
[02:09] Veldora
    There's also the Demon Lord
    who's a giant, Daggrull.
[02:12] Veldora
    I've fought him a few times,
    but a victor was never determined.
[02:16] Rimuru
    If you remember his name,
    he must be pretty powerful.
[02:20] Veldora
    Nah, if I fought him now, I'd win.
[02:23] Veldora
    Also, I haven't fought him,
[02:26] Veldora
    but there's a Demon Lord who's
    actually a demon, Guy Crimson.
[02:29] Veldora
    You haven't fought him?
[02:31] Veldora
    He lives way up in the far north.
[02:33] Veldora
    There's no need for one as great as
    me to venture to such a remote land!
[02:40] Ramiris
    That's true. Guy is really strong.
[02:43] Ramiris
    Guy, Milim, and I are the
    oldest of the Demon Lords.
[02:48] Rimuru
    Ah, I see.
[02:50] Rimuru
    So who's the last one?
[02:53] Veldora
    Hmm... I don't know.
[02:55] Ramiris
    It's Deeno.
[02:57] Ramiris
    He does nothing but sleep and loves
    slacking off even more than I do!
[03:01] Rimuru
    Oh, there's another one like you?
[03:03] Rimuru
    Don't say he's like me!
[03:06] Rimuru
    So that's ten...
[03:09] Treyni
    It appears it's time.
[03:10] Ramiris
    Our ride is here!
[03:17] Rimuru
    What is that design?
[03:19] Rimuru
    It's way too dramatic.
[03:26] Mizeri
    I've come to collect you, Lady Ramiris.
[03:29] Rimuru
    This maid...
[03:30] Rimuru
    is just as intimidating as Diablo.
[03:33] Rimuru
    So she's a demon, and a
    high-ranking one at that.
[03:35] Ramiris
    Long time no see, Mizeri!
    How's your partner, Raine?
[03:40] Mizeri
    As well as ever. Thank you for asking.
[03:42] Mizeri
    You are Great Rimuru?
[03:45] Mizeri
    My master, Lord Guy, has told me about you.
[03:49] Rimuru
    She serves Guy, one of
    the oldest Demon Lords?
[03:52] Mizeri
    Please proceed.
[03:53] Ramiris
    Well, let's go, Beretta and Treyni!
[03:56] Treyni
    Yes, Lady Ramiris.
[03:58] Beretta
    I shall accompany you.
[04:00] Trya
    Please be careful, Lady Ramiris.
[04:04] Rimuru
    Waiting beyond that door
[04:06] Rimuru
    are the ones who control this world...
[04:09] Rimuru
    But now that I've made up my
    mind to become a Demon Lord,
[04:12] Rimuru
    I can't lose my nerve.
[04:15] Rimuru
    Let's go.
[04:16] Both
    Right!
[04:23] Trya
    Great Rimuru,
[04:24] Trya
    and the rest of you, please be careful.
[04:27] Veldora
    If anything happens, call me right away!
SIGN    That Time I Got
    Reincarnated as a Slime
SIGN    Episode 45: Adalmann, the Index Finger
[06:11] Hakuro
    Where is Clayman's castle?
[06:14] Hakuro
    This fog is blocking my Magic Detection.
[06:18] Soei
    It appears our enemy is using
    the fog to obtain information.
[06:31] Shuna
    I do believe we have walked into a trap.
[06:35] Hakuro
    A trap?
[06:36] Soei
    I don't sense any enemies...
[06:38] Soei
    What?!
[06:44] Hakuro
    How...
[06:45] Hakuro
    There are so many. Where could they hide,
    that we didn't sense their presence?
[06:50] Shuna
    The enemy was not hiding.
[06:52] Shuna
    They lured us...
[06:55] Shuna
    right into their midst.
[06:57] Soei
    With Magic Detection unusable, we have
    no way to know how many there are.
[07:01] Soei
    But if their numbers are
    their only advantage...
[07:04] Soei
    Princess Shuna, I will break through them.
[07:07] Soei
    While I do, you and Master Hakuro—
[07:08] Shuna
    No, Soei.
[07:11] Shuna
    It does not appear they
    will make it so simple.
[07:18] Shuna
    What immense magical power...
[07:21] Hakuro
    I see. So you are...
[07:23] Soei
    One of the Five Fingers serving Clayman...
[07:25] Shuna
    Adalmann, the Index Finger.
[07:27] Adalmann
    Indeed. I am Adalmann,
[07:31] Adalmann
    the White King who commands
    a multitude of undead.
[07:34] Adalmann
    A servant of the Great Demon Lord Clayman,
[07:37] Adalmann
    and the one he has ordered
    to protect this land.
[07:40] Adalmann
    Lowly intruders, give up your lives quietly.
[07:46] Shuna
    We are fully surrounded.
[07:50] Shuna
    Escape using Spatial
    Movement is not possible.
[07:53] Shuna
    The only way out of this
[07:55] Shuna
    is to defeat Adalmann.
[07:57] Hakuro
    Then let's do so at once.
[07:58] Soei
    I agree.
[07:59] Soei
    My attack can kill even the dead.
[08:03] Adalmann
    None of you know your place!
[08:05] Adalmann
    You are fools!
[08:11] Hakuro
    Impressive. You predicted my moves.
[08:13] Hakuro
    So even as a rotting corpse,
    you remain a swordsman.
[08:24] Soei
    It can't be... A Dragon Zombie?
[08:26] Shuna
    This opponent is not that simple!
[08:29] Shuna
    It is the strongest of all
    dead monsters, a Death Dragon!
[08:34] Soei
    A dead creature? Then die.
[08:40] Soei
    Arcane Thread Fetters!
[08:48] Soei
    Got you.
[08:57] Soei
    I see. It has a resistance to death.
[09:00] Soei
    Then I shall destroy not only your
    body, but your soul, as well.
[09:04] Shuna
    Soei, be still.
[09:06] Shuna
    Your calm mind can surely
    see a way through this.
[09:10] Shuna
    This dragon's soul
[09:12] Shuna
    is within Adalmann.
[09:15] Shuna
    So you need not worry about me.
[09:18] Shuna
    Focus on stopping that dragon.
[09:20] Shuna
    I will defeat Adalmann.
[09:22] Soei
    That is too dangerous.
[09:24] Shuna
    No, Soei.
[09:26] Shuna
    You see... I am angry.
[09:31] Soei
    Right...
[09:32] Soei
    The moment we escaped the Ogre village
[09:35] Soei
    and first encountered Great Rimuru,
[09:37] Soei
    Princess Shuna was no longer a
    princess in need of protection.
[09:42] Soei
    Understood. Best of luck, Lady Shuna.
[09:45] Shuna
    Same to you.
[09:47] Shuna
    I'm counting on you to handle that dragon.
[09:57] Shuna
    The Otherworlders' behavior...
[10:00] Shuna
    The invasion by the Kingdom of Falmuth...
[10:02] Shuna
    And Clayman, the one behind it all.
[10:05] Shuna
    We did not come here on some
    pleasant little excursion.
[10:08] Adalmann
    Oh? And what do you intend
    to do, little lady?
[10:12] Adalmann
    What is there that you can do
    without relying on your guards?
[10:17] Shuna
    I do not need your concern.
[10:19] Shuna
    Alignment Field!
[10:34] Shuna
    Now no one can interrupt us.
[10:36] Shuna
    If I defeat you,
[10:38] Shuna
    I can destroy the defense
    mechanism centered around you
[10:41] Shuna
    that covers this area, yes?
[10:43] Adalmann
    Ah, well done.
[10:45] Adalmann
    I am impressed you figured
    out my secret, as well.
[10:48] Adalmann
    What is your name, girl?
[10:50] Shuna
    My name is Shuna.
[10:52] Adalmann
    Shuna... Miss Shuna, eh?
[10:55] Adalmann
    Then, let us commence our fight.
[10:58] Adalmann
    If you defeat me, I will do as you wish.
[11:02] Shuna
    How very kind of you to offer.
[11:05] Shuna
    But our only wish is the fall
    of the Demon Lord Clayman.
[11:09] Shuna
    If you agree not to interfere,
[11:11] Shuna
    we will allow you to continue
    to exist in this land.
[11:16] Adalmann
    I do believe that will be impossible.
[11:19] Shuna
    I see.
[11:21] Shuna
    I thought you would be capable
    of breaking that binding spell,
[11:24] Shuna
    but perhaps I was mistaken.
[11:27] Adalmann
    If I could break the binding spell,
    I would have done so by now.
[11:31] Adalmann
    You make it sound like such a simple matter.
[11:34] Shuna
    Then, as planned...
[11:36] Shuna
    I will defeat you.
[11:41] Adalmann
    Then fight me with all the strength you have!
[11:48] Adalmann
    Dissolve and corrode all!
[11:51] Adalmann
    Acid Shell!
[11:55] Shuna
    Flame Wall!
[11:58] Adalmann
    Then how about this?!
[12:00] Adalmann
    You dead who bear deep grudges,
[12:02] Adalmann
    offer up a sacrifice!
[12:04] Adalmann
    Curse Bind!
[12:07] Shuna
    Holy Bell.
[12:16] Adalmann
    Impossible! A Divine Miracle?!
[12:20] Adalmann
    How? How can a monster use holy magic?!
[12:24] Shuna
    You find it strange?
[12:26] Shuna
    That's only because you
    have such a hard head.
[12:28] Shuna
    Holy magic responds to
    the strength of the wish
[12:32] Shuna
    of anyone who believes in
    miracles and wishes for them.
[12:35] Adalmann
    What... did you say?!
[12:39] Adalmann
    I was betrayed by the top leaders of Luminism
[12:43] Adalmann
    and lost my faith in the god Luminus.
[12:46] Adalmann
    When I was reduced to this form,
[12:48] Adalmann
    I thought I would never be able
    to use holy magic again...
[12:52] Adalmann
    Are you telling me that isn't the case?!
[12:56] Adalmann
    Why?
[12:57] Adalmann
    Why did you believe I was
    a user of holy magic?
[13:01] Shuna
    Your appearance.
[13:03] Shuna
    Those pure white robes are only donned
    by the highest members of the clergy.
[13:08] Shuna
    Your magic is advanced enough to
    earn you the right to wear that,
[13:11] Shuna
    yet you are so weak that you lament your
    inability to break such a basic binding spell.
[13:16] Shuna
    If you only wear those robes because
    you miss having holy magic,
[13:20] Shuna
    perhaps there was no need to be wary of you.
[13:24] Adalmann
    I will hear no more out of you!
[13:28] Adalmann
    I lift this prayer up to thee, God.
[13:30] Adalmann
    I desire the power of the Holy Spirit!
[13:36] Adalmann
    I beseech thee: hear my wish!
[13:40] Adalmann
    Of course.
[13:41] Adalmann
    My resolve was insufficient.
[13:44] Adalmann
    When my compatriots who
    admired me became undead,
[13:47] Adalmann
    I could not even die first
    and leave them behind.
[13:50] Adalmann
    I was naïve!
[13:51] Adalmann
    But if I plead sincerely for
    my wish to be granted...
[13:54] Adalmann
    I bear no grudge against
    this girl called Shuna.
[13:57] Adalmann
    In fact, I feel grateful
    to her for opening my eyes.
[14:02] Adalmann
    But because of the curse of
    the man who bound me here,
[14:05] Adalmann
    the Demon Lord Kazalim,
    I cannot take my own life!
[14:10] Adalmann
    Forgive me, Miss Shuna.
[14:12] Adalmann
    I shall have to take you with me!
[14:14] Adalmann
    Put an end to all!
[14:16] Adalmann
    Disintegration!
[14:18] Shuna
    I've been waiting for that.
[14:21] Shuna
    Overdrive!
[14:30] Adalmann
    Wh-What?!
[14:32] Adalmann
    She overwrote my magic?!
[14:35] Shuna
    Well done.
[14:37] Shuna
    As a reward, I shall set
    you free from this land.
[15:12] Soei
    Excellent work, Princess Shuna.
[15:15] Shuna
    It's over now.
[15:16] Hakuro
    Goodness, the Death Knights
    were far more than I expected.
[15:21] Hakuro
    You truly saved me, Princess Shuna.
[15:24] Shuna
    No, it was you who saved me, Hakuro.
[15:27] Shuna
    And you, Soei.
[15:28] Shuna
    You did a fine job of buying me
    time against that Death Dragon.
[15:32] Soei
    No, I am ashamed that I could not defeat it.
[15:38] Shuna
    It seems I went a bit too far in my own rage.
[15:43] Hakuro
    Yes, indeed.
[15:45] Hakuro
    It seems that becoming more
    powerful made us arrogant.
[15:49] Soei
    Great Rimuru's concern was well-placed.
    One never knows what might happen in war.
[15:54] Soei
    I should have gathered more information.
[16:01] Shuna
    Well...
[16:03] Shuna
    Let's take control of Clayman's castle now.
[16:07] Adalmann
    Please wait.
[16:10] Hakuro
    You still live?
[16:12] Hakuro
    Do you need a finishing blow?
[16:13] Shuna
    Hold, Hakuro.
[16:15] Shuna
    He no longer has the will to fight.
[16:19] Adalmann
    Lady Shuna...
[16:22] Shuna
    "Lady"?
[16:26] Adalmann
    Thanks to your magic,
[16:28] Adalmann
    we have all been freed from the
    curse binding us to this land.
[16:32] Adalmann
    Surely this means there was a reason
    for our inability to pass on!
[16:35] Adalmann
    I wish to ask a favor of you!
[16:38] Shuna
    What is it?
[16:40] Adalmann
    I would like to meet the one
    you have placed your faith in.
[16:44] Adalmann
    With my lost faith, I lack the
    power that I enjoyed at my peak.
[16:49] Adalmann
    My faith in the god Luminus is dead.
[16:52] Adalmann
    Therefore, I wish to gain a new god.
[16:56] Shuna
    Well... he isn't exactly a god...
[16:58] Shuna
    We revere Great Rimuru,
    but we don't worship him.
[17:04] Adalmann
    Ah, so his name is Great Rimuru!
[17:06] Adalmann
    What a wonderful name
    befitting of our new god!
[17:12] Adalmann
    I am but a weak undead,
[17:16] Adalmann
    but it is my humble hope that
    I can still be of use to him.
[17:19] Adalmann
    Could I trouble you to introduce
    us to your Great Rimuru?
[17:28] (Flashback) Rimuru
    Boing!
[17:30] (Flashback) Rimuru
    Boi-oi-oing!
[17:33] Shuna
    Well, why not?
[17:35] Shuna
    Once he meets Great Rimuru,
    maybe he'll give up.
[17:40] Shuna
    Very well.
[17:43] Adalmann
    Thank you!
[17:44] Shuna
    But first...
[17:46] Shuna
    There is something we need to do.
[17:52] Adalmann
    I see.
[17:53] Adalmann
    Then allow me to guide you.
[17:55] Adalmann
    Please, follow me.
[18:01] Adalmann
    Come, come!
[18:12] Mizeri
    This way, please.
[18:14] Rimuru
    Sure...
[18:26] Rimuru
    Oh, boy...
[18:28] Rimuru
    He's bad news.
[18:30] Rimuru
    He's clearly in a class of his own.
[18:32] Rimuru
    So this is one of the oldest
    Demon Lords, Guy Crimson...
[18:46] Rimuru
    That massive body...
[18:48] Rimuru
    And the ridiculous amount of energy...
[18:50] Rimuru
    That's the giant Demon Lord, Daggrull.
[19:04] Rimuru
    Those fangs...
[19:05] Rimuru
    Is he a vampire?
[19:07] Rimuru
    Which makes him the Demon Lord Valentine...
[19:11] Rimuru
    H-Huh?
[19:13] Rimuru
    Wait a second... His attendant...
[19:16] Raphael
    Answer.
[19:17] Raphael
    Appraisal suggests that
    the individual in question
[19:20] Raphael
    may possess even more energy
    than Demon Lord Valentine.
[19:24] Rimuru
    I thought so.
[19:26] Rimuru
    That maid might be the True Demon Lord.
[19:29] Rimuru
    The one called Lurus or Milis or whatever...
[19:32] Rimuru
    I hope no one finds out about
    my connection with Veldora.
[19:35] Rimuru
    And if they do,
[19:36] Rimuru
    I hope I don't have to
    clean up the aftermath...
[19:43] Deeno
    Oh, hey. You're still a
    puny little thing, huh?
[19:47] Ramiris
    Are you trying to pick a fight?
[19:48] Ramiris
    You've got a lot of nerve, Deeno!
[19:51] Deeno
    Oh, please. Why would I pick
    a fight when I know I'd win?
[19:55] Ramiris
    Grr! You've got a death wish, huh?!
[19:57] Ramiris
    I'll have you know I'm in top form today!
[20:00] Deeno
    No way. You're even smaller than
    you were the last time I saw you.
[20:03] Ramiris
    Well, I can't help it! I was
    just reborn not long ago!
[20:07] Deeno
    Hey, what's a loner like
    you doing with attendants?
[20:10] Deeno
    You're making me look lame for coming alone.
[20:13] Ramiris
    Oh, you know...
[20:14] Ramiris
    This is my way of getting back at anyone
    who calls me "puny" or a "loner"!
[20:19] Ramiris
    In other words, you!
[20:20] Deeno
    Huh... Actually, these two are
    kinda amazing, aren't they?
[20:20] Ramiris
    Realize how powerless you are
    in the face of these two!
[20:24] Deeno
    Now that I look closer,
    they're seriously intense.
[20:26] Ramiris
    Right? Aren't they?
[20:28] Ramiris
    This'll make everything I
    say more convincing, right?
[20:31] Ramiris
    Well? Are you jealous?
[20:32] Rimuru
    Yeah. I've got the gist.
[20:33] Deeno
    Huh... Sure, cool, I guess.
[20:35] Ramiris
    Hey! I'm not done talking to you!
[20:50] Rimuru
    That must be Frey, the harpy Demon
    Lord the Beastketeers talked about.
[20:54] Rimuru
    Just... Just check out
    that overflowing sexiness!
[20:59] Rimuru
    I'm pretty sure I can say
    this one's the best, right?
[21:02] Shion
    Great Rimuru.
[21:03] Rimuru
    Wh-Wh-What is it, Shion?!
[21:05] Rimuru
    Crap! She's gonna kill me!
[21:07] Shion
    The male attendant behind her...
[21:09] Shion
    Don't you find him curious?
[21:13] Rimuru
    She's right.
[21:14] Rimuru
    He's got a lot of magicules, but not the
    insane amount all the others here have.
[21:19] Rimuru
    Could that mean...
[21:20] Raphael
    Notice.
[21:21] Raphael
    Appraisal suggests that...
[21:23] Rimuru
    Nah, even if that was Carrion,
[21:25] Rimuru
    he wouldn't make his presence
    here so obvious. It's not him.
[21:31] Rimuru
    Raphael-san? Did you just—
[21:31] Leon
    So you are Rimuru?
[21:35] Rimuru
    That's right.
[21:39] Rimuru
    I see. You're Leon.
[21:42] Rimuru
    You want something from me?
[21:45] Leon
    No.
[21:48] Leon
    Your appearance felt
    familiar to me, that's all.
[21:52] Rimuru
    Leon, Shizu-san is dead.
[21:55] Leon
    I know.
[21:57] Leon
    It's natural that she would die.
[21:59] Leon
    After all, she never accepted Ifrit,
[22:01] Leon
    and she resisted becoming a majin.
[22:05] Rimuru
    I'm not saying this because
    she asked me to...
[22:08] Rimuru
    but let me hit you just once.
[22:09] Leon
    I refuse.
[22:10] Leon
    I gave Shizu the opportunity
    to choose her own life.
[22:15] Leon
    She wished to live as a human.
[22:19] Leon
    I gave her Ifrit as a parting gift.
[22:21] Leon
    I see no reason why I deserve to be hit.
[22:24] Leon
    But I am somewhat interested in you.
[22:27] Leon
    I will invite you to my castle. If you
    have an issue with me, see me there.
[22:31] Leon
    If you believe this to be a
    trap, you're free to refuse.
[22:37] Rimuru
    Fine. Send me an invitation
    and I'll be there.
[22:41] Leon
    I'll do that. Of course...
[22:44] Leon
    That's only if you leave here alive.
[22:51] Rimuru
    Milim!
[22:54] Rimuru
    Oh, good. She seems okay, at least.
[22:58] Rimuru
    With Carrion missing, that makes eight.
[23:01] Rimuru
    Which means the cocky-looking
    guy next to her is...
[23:03] Clayman
    Walk faster, you dullard!
[23:11] Clayman
    Everyone, thank you for waiting.
[23:24] Rimuru
    Clayman...
[23:25] Rimuru
    I'll make sure you pay dearly
    for hitting my friend.
[23:31] Rimuru
    Don't expect a painless death.
[23:36] Raphael
    Next time, "Walpurgis."
