[RIMURU]
Excellent. No one escapes.
[RIMURU] Die. May the wrath
of the gods pierce you.
Megiddo!
[GREAT SAGE]
Notice: , have d*ed.

--[EDMARIS] Help me, Reyheim!
--[REYHEIM whimpering]
What sort of madness is this?!
What are we going to do?!
Try to stay calm, Your Highness!
that's all we can do!
Is King Edmaris safe?!
What are you doing?!
Protect the king!
[HUMAN SOLDIER A]
Uh, right!
[FOLGEN gasps]
[EDMARIS]
Oh, Folgen!
Hurry! We have to
get out of here right now!
This is madness!
We must retreat immediately!
I concur. We've no idea
what's happening.
If we don't leave at once,
then it's likely
we'll be slain, as well.
Shogo? You seem different.
Because I'm now Razen, sir.
Oh, yes, of course!
Thank goodness you're here--
you can use your teleportation
magic to take us back
to our kingdom!
[SHOGO (RAZEN)] Unfortunately,
Anti-Magic Area is in effect,
so I cannot do that.
[gasps]
So we're trapped?!
What shall we do?
Don't worry, Your Highness.
Here--I have a plan.
[BOTH gasp]
[FOLGEN] I will use
my unique skill, Spearhead,
to force the soldiers
who are still alive outside
to gather together.
We can turn them
into living shields.
They'll protect you
while you both escape.
[EDMARIS] Ah... Brilliant!
Well done, Folgen!
I'm so glad we can rely on you!
[FOLGEN]
I'll go assemble everyone.
Please begin
preparations to retreat.
Yes, understood!
[EDMARIS screams]
[whimpers]
We're dead!
We're... as good as dead!
No... I don't understand
how any of this
can actually be happening!
It's impossible!
[gasps]
[gasps]
[SHOGO (RAZEN) growls]
[SHOGO (RAZEN)]
What's that?
It can't be!
[SHOGO (RAZEN)] You're the
monster ruler. Aren't you?
[RIMURU] Your body
appears to be Japanese.
Are you the Otherworlder
who att*cked us?
On the outside,
but not the inside.
[RIMURU] Hmm... Well, either
way, you're still an enemy.
--[EDMARIS screams] No!
--[REYHEIM whimpering]
Now Razen is dead, too!
[EDMARIS] It was
a mistake to mess with
the nation of monsters!
What do I do?
How can I survive?
Hold on. This might
be my chance!
After all, this fool gladly made
a deal with a small country
like Blumund.
So if I, the king of
a great nation like Falmuth,
offered a proposal
he'd probably be overjoyed!
[HUMAN SOLDIERS whimpering]
[HUMAN SOLDIER B]
Ah! Please!
[HUMAN SOLDIER C]
I beg you to spare us!
[RIMURU]
Hmph.
[GREAT SAGE]
Confirmed.
The acquisition of the
unique skill "Merciless."
Successful.
[RIMURU] Merciless?
What the heck is that?
Wait! You are the leader of
the monster nation, correct?
My name is Edmaris.
Ruler of the Kingdom of Falmuth!
Stand down!
I wish to speak with you!
[RIMURU sighs]
Are you his double or what?
No need to freak out--
I don't have any plans to k*ll
the real king.
[REYHEIM] Hold on,
this man is not a double!
I am an Archbishop from
the Western Holy Church!
And I swear that the real king
stands before you!
[RIMURU]
Too bad I'm k*lling everyone
who's not the king, then.
[REYHEIM, EDMARIS gasp]
[EDMARIS]
You can't be serious!
[REYHEIM]
Ah! Please wait, I beg of you!
If you'll spare no one else,
at least make me an exception!
My name's Archbishop Reyheim
and I'm rather influential
when it comes to
the church's ear!
And if you'll only let me live,
I'll assure them
your nation of monsters
is no thr*at to humans!
[chuckles]
[EDMARIS]
Stop right there!
Did you not hear my request
to speak with you?!
[RIMURU] Fine, then.
I guess I'll hear you out.
[EDMARIS]
Such insolence!
How dare you speak to
the king of Falmuth that way?!
You're a creature that
normally wouldn't even have
the ability to speak, and--
[grunts]
[RIMURU]
Enough.
You will not belittle me again.
You get one pass, but choose
your next words carefully.
Hey, now! You misunderstand me!
[RIMURU]
How so?
[EDMARIS] Uh, I only came
to establish friendly relations!
[RIMURU] No, you declared
w*r on my nation.
Do you really think
I'm that stupid?
My comrades fell victim
to your soldiers.
That makes you my enemy.
Only because the Western
Holy Church claimed
monsters were hostile.
I wanted to see for myself
whether we could establish
friendly relations with them!
And the declaration of w*r
was just the Otherworlders
going on a rampage!
So. You see?
Now we can enter
into diplomatic relations!
Doesn't that sound good?
Are you not honored?
This is a big day for you!
However. I will require
compensation for the losses...
[RIMURU]
Oh,, wow. What a genius.
It almost feels like
he's trying to piss me off.
[EDMARIS]
...sound fair?
[EDMARIS groans]
Huh...?
[screams]
[REYHEIM whimpering]
[screaming continues]
[GREAT SAGE]
Notice:
Analysis of the unique skill
"Merciless" is now complete.
It gives its user the ability to
seize control of those who plead
for their lives or seek aid.
[RIMURU]
Meaning?
[GREAT SAGE] Should the target
lose its will to fight
in the face of this skill,
it will mean their death.
[RIMURU] I see.
And the required souls?
Do I have what I need?
[GREAT SAGE] You have acquired
. % of the required number.
[RIMURU]
That little? Well, then...
[RIMURU]
I've gained a new skill.
I doubt I'll have
many chances to use it.
Might as well see
what it's capable of.
[GREAT SAGE]
Question.
Would you like to use
the unique skill "Merciless"?
[RIMURU]
Yes.
[GREAT SAGE] Through the use
of the unique skill "Merciless,"
you have harvested the
souls of all the humans
within the immediate area.
However, the individuals
called Edmaris and Reyheim
are excluded as targets.
[RIMURU]
Seems merciless to me.
[REYHEIM whimpering]
Wait a second,
what'd you just do?
[REYHEIM whimpering]
[GREAT SAGE]
Notice.
Checking the status to see if
the number of humans souls
required for the evolution to
a demon lord has been attained.
[GREAT SAGE] Verified.
All conditions have been met.
The Harvest Festival
will begin momentarily.
[RIMURU groans]
[RIMURU]
Oh, crap...
I suddenly feel so sleepy...
[REYHEIM, EDMARIS]
Huh...?
[GREAT SAGE] Notice. Magic Sense
has detected one survivor.
[RIMURU gasps]
What the heck...?
Right now, I just need
to try and stay awake...
[GREAT SAGE]
Notice.
The Harvest Festival cannot
be halted once it has begun.
I don't understand...
Ranga.
--[EDMARIS gasps]
--[REYHEIM] Uhh...
[RANGA]
Yes! What is it?!
[RIMURU]
Top-priority order.
Take me back to the town
and keep me safe.
Right!
Take those two
as w*r prisoners...
[BOTH whimper]
[RANGA]
Understood.
I sense a survivor, how would
you like me to proceed?
I'm gonna make that
someone else's problem.
[RANGA gasps]
[RANGA panting]
[RIMURU] Deactivate
the Anti-Magic Area...
[RIMURU] Now activate summon
magic, Demon Summoning.
[RIMURU] My offering will be all
the dead bodies in this area.
I've got food for you!
Get out here, demon!
Prove you can be of use to me!
--[EDMARIS whimpering]
--No way...!
[RIMURU]
All right, guys...
Someone's hidin' somewhere,
pretending to be dead.
Bring him to me alive.
[BLACK chuckles]
I know this feeling.
The birth of a Demon Lord.
How fantastic!
Such a generous offer
for my first job.
I couldn't be more honored.
I'll be sure to give it my all.
Finally. I've waited
so long for this.
One request.
May I serve you from
this moment on, sir?
[RIMURU]
We'll talk later...
First, I need you to prove
that you can be useful.
Go.
Of course, it's a simple task.
We shall not fail, Master.
[EDMARIS, REYHEIM whimpering]
[RIMURU groans]
[WORLD]
Notice.
The Harvest Festival
to evolve the individual
known as Rimuru Tempest into
a Demon Lord will now begin.
That voice...
It's the Words of the World.
[WORLD]
Upon completion,
gifts will be bestowed to all
those connected to the host.
[SHUNA gasps]
Oh, Lord Rimuru...
Everyone, focus!
Our leader is victorious!
Now is the time to make use
of our strength!
[EDMARIS, REYHEIM yelling]
[EDMARIS, REYHEIM grunt]
[BENIMARU]
Lord Rimuru!
Take the Master!
[SHUNA gasps]
[BENIMARU]
Fetch a cloak.
His Thermal Fluctuation
Resistance might be failing.
--[RANGA] Right!
--I'm so glad you're safe...
[REYHEIM gasps]
[EDMARIS groans]
[BENIMARU]
Lord Rimuru.
Once you become a Demon Lord,
please don't become a different
person and lose control.
[WORLD] Notice.
The Harvest Festival has begun.
The individual's physical
constitution will be rebuilt,
and he will evolve
into a new race.
[WORLD]
Confirmed.
Super-evolving from slime race
to demon slime race.
Successful.
All physical abilities have
significantly improved.
The individual can now
freely change his material
and spiritual bodies.
Next, all skills and resistances
already acquired by the old form
will be re-acquired.
Successful.
New intrinsic skills:
Infinite Regeneration, Universal
Detect, Lord's Ambition,
Enhanced Replication,
and Universal Thread.
Acquisition successful.
New resistances: Natural
Elemental Nullification,
Ailment Nullification,
Spiritual att*ck Resistance,
and Holy att*ck Resistance.
Acquisition successful.
This completes the evolution.
[GREAT SAGE]
Notice. Petition to evolve
the unique skill Great Sage
to Words of the World.
Requesting evolution
of Great Sage.
[WORLD]
Understood.
Request for unique skill
"Wise One" accepted.
Unique skill "Wise One"
will now attempt to evolve.
[WORLD]
Failed. Repeating attempt.
[WORLD]
Failed. Repeating attempt.
[WORLD]
Failed. Repeating attempt.
[WORLD]
Failed. Repeating attempt.
[WORLD]
Failed. Repeating attempt.
[echoing repeatedly]
Failed. Repeating attempt.
Failed. Failed. Failed. Failed.
Falied. Failed. Failed. Failed.
Failed.
Notice. Unique skill "Wise One"
will sacrifice the ability
"Degenerate" to receive
the Harvest Festival gift
and re-attempt evolution.
[WORLD]
Successful.
The unique skill "Wise One" has
evolved into the ultimate skill,
henceforth known as "Raphael."
[RAPHAEL]
Evolution of "Gluttony" desired.
Sacrifice "Merciless"
to execute.
[WORLD]
Successful.
The unique skill "Gluttony" has
evolved into the ultimate skill
known as "Beelzebub."
[SHOGO (RAZEN) groans] The power
of Survivor kept me alive.
I had no idea he would pierce
my brain in a mere instant.
[SHOGO (RAZEN) gasps]
[laughs] Hello, I am here
to restrain you.
I do not expect you
to come quietly.
However, while I'm not
allowed to k*ll you,
there are no orders that would
prevent me from torturing you.
Fair warning.
Oh? You actually intend to
engage in battle with me?
[BLACK]
Pardon?
[laughs]
What an amusing joke.
What makes you think I'm joking?
You're hardly more than
a Greater Demon.
[BLACK laughs] Very well!
This will be great fun!
I shall humor you for a bit.
Consider it post-meal
calisthenics.
Heh. I'll end you quickly.
Strike magic! Nuclear Cannon!
Phoo!
[SHOGO (RAZEN)] It misfired?!
But that's impossible.
Trigger techniques that require
an incantation first have
a very small chance
of malfunctioning.
--[clapping]
--[growls]
Valiant effort.
I must say, I'm impressed.
An ill-timed failure.
This one will do better!
Spirit Summon!
[SHOGO (RAZEN)]
w*r Gnome. Come to me!
Superior spirit of the earth
and source of all things!
[w*r GNOME A growls]
Yes, I see what you're doing.
Indeed, demons are
strong against angels,
angels are strong
against spirits,
and spirits are
strong against demons.
If one had to make a choice in
such a three-way stand-off,
summoning a superior spirit
would be the correct choice.
However...
[SHOGO (RAZEN)]
What now?
[BLACK]
It is too young.
[gasps]
Do you see?
Not enough experience.
It's nothing more
than a brainless brute.
It will take more
than that to b*at me.
[chuckles]
[gasps]
But how?! That was a spirit!
One that was far superior!
[SHOGO (RAZEN) gasps]
No. Can it be...?
You're an Archdemon?!
[BLACK]
That's enough magic.
I want to test this body
my master gave me some more.
So let's change things up a bit.
You cast Anti-Magic Area?
Why seal your greatest strength?
Everyone knows magic is a
demon's biggest asset in battle!
Perhaps.
Please feel free to try any
physical att*cks you like.
[SHOGO (RAZEN)] Tch.
Ridiculous, it doesn't matter
if you're an Archdemon!
As long as you can't
use magic, then I'll b*at you!
Unique skill: Berserker!
[groaning]
[yelps]
[SHOGO (RAZEN) gasps]
Those golden eyes...
The red pupils...
[SHOGO (RAZEN) snarls]
[SHOGO (RAZEN) grunts]
[SHOGO (RAZEN)] Tch. I've never
felt strength like this before.
It can't be... Are you...
Are you the one
from the legends...?
The Primordial...?
Oh my. You are well-learned.
That must mean I'm dealing
with someone quite clever.
[gasps]
Their ruler has no idea.
He has no clue
that he's released
such a horrific monstrosity
upon this world!
[whimpering]
[grunts]
[whimpering continues]
Oh, dear. Have you
realized it's over?
[SHOGO (RAZEN) whimpering]
[rasping]
Oops.
Well, then. I suppose
I have completed my task.
Meaning... I will most certainly
earn praise from my new master.
[WORLD]
Notice.
The individual Rimuru Tempest's
Harvest Festival is complete.
Lord Rimuru!
He's evolved.
[WORLD] Next step:
A gift will be bestowed
upon those connected to him.
A gift?
[grunts]
[SHUNA grunts]
[gasps]
[GRUCIUS]
Huh...?
[BENIMARU groans]
What is this...?
This gift...
My connection with him...
feels stronger...
Much stronger...
than it used to be...
[RANGA]
Must... guard... Master...
[GRUCIUS gasps]
[BENIMARU groans]
[gasping]
[BENIMARU gasps]
Notice. Rest easy,
I will handle everything.
[BENIMARU grunts]
He's changed.
Are you sure?
[RAPHAEL] Notice. I order you
in the name of Raphael.
Beelzebub, devour all
magicules within this barrier.
Do not leave a single
fragment of a soul behind.
All the magicules...
...were sucked away?
Are those... spirits?
--[gasps]
--Whoa, an Archdemon!
[BLACK] We've delivered
the survivor, Master.
[BOTH gasp]
Pardon me, sir. Normally,
I wouldn't dare interrupt
this ritual, but I
feel I must speak.
It appears there aren't
enough magicules
to fully revive these souls.
Though I've no doubt
you're aware of that.
Yes. The amount of magicules
present is insufficient.
I'll use my life energy
to succeed.
Wait a moment, if you will.
There is no need to substitute
your own life energy, my lord.
I've the most excellent idea.
May I suggest using
these two instead?
It would be their honor.
Being of use to you
is all that matters to us.
Please consider it.
I assure you there is nothing
that would make us happier.
Yes. They will augment
the current magicules.
I accept your proposal.
Beelzebub.
Oh. How I envy them...
[BLACK]
Ah! Forgive me, sir.
[RAPHAEL] The required amount
of magicules has been fulfilled.
Beginning the Secret Art
of Spirit Resurrection.
[RAPHAEL]
Appraisal.
I don't believe it.
This is the ultimate art!
There's no way...
A newborn Demon Lord
can do this?
[GRUCIUS] Even Lord Carrion
couldn't perform this.
Magnificent...
[chuckles]
[BLACK] I must be accepted as
his subordinate at any cost.
[RIMURU]
Reviving the dead,
AKA Secret Art of
Spirit Resurrection.
Carrying it out requires an
absolutely insane amount
of magicules. And the magic
needed to control them
surpasses the imagination.
[RIMURU] The probability
of success is . %.
But that number was calculated
before I completed my evolution
and became a Demon Lord.
[RIMURU] Now that
the process is complete...
[RAPHAEL]
Next time, "The One Unleashed."
