[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." SIGN    Demon Lords' Banquet      Walpurgis
