[laughing]
I am the Storm Dragon,
Veldora Tempest! Revived!
And those who defy me...
will be slaughtered!
[VELDORA laughing]
You for real?
Where did you hear
something so tropey?
[VELDORA laughs]
[VELDORA]
Well, I was really bored,
so I analyzed your memories
and read all that "manga"
stuff you had in there!
Get this!
I can now play shogi
at the master level!
Wait, since I'm the Storm
Dragon, make it the Ryuo level!
[RIMURU]
Gotcha.
I'm glad to hear life in my
stomach was so awesome for ya.
[VELDORA]
Hmph.
[RIMURU]
Huh?
[VELDORA]
I'm free after all this time,
but you're being very cold.
[groans]
My freedom came more quickly
than I expected, though.
I thank you, Rimuru Tempest!
Dearest BFF!
"BFF", really?
That's so outdated.
Heh.
Oh, yeah, I almost forgot, did
you get an evolution gift, too?
Yes, indeed I did, my friend.
As it would turn out, my
Unique Skill, "Inquirer,"
has evolved into
an Ultimate Skill!
It's called Faust, cool, right?
Behold! It's the ability to
reach the ultimate truth...
[RIMURU]
Oh, that makes sense.
Especially considering my Great
Sage skill evolved into Raphael.
[RAPHAEL]
Yes. That is not all.
Analyzing the remains
of Veldora has given you
a new ultimate skill, which
is also called "Veldora."
[gasps]
[RAPHAEL] In addition,
using the unique skill
"Unlimited Imprisonment"
as a basis
to consolidate each
of your abilities,
you have successfully acquired
the ultimate skill "Uriel."
[RIMURU] Wait, that means I have
four ultimate skills now?
[RAPHAEL]
It does mean that.
[chuckles, yelps]
Great news, buddy!
That also means you and I are
practically invincible now.
I say we relax and
just go with it!
Yeah, sure.
[VELDORA laughing]
[VELDORA] Hmm. My first
time outside in centuries.
Ah! The air tastes so sweet!
Listen, you think you can
tone down the enormous aura?
You're gonna scare the crap
out of everyone in town.
Yes, of course. I'll try.
Suck it in or whatever.
Hm. I see. That technique.
Technique?
[VELDORA yelling]
[RIMURU] Kind of reminds me
of a shonen manga.
[VELDORA yelling]
How's this?
Hey, not too shabby!
The death aura is
much smaller now.
[laughing]
You may thank the wisdom
found in the sacred texts
that contain all
knowledge of the world!
[RIMURU] Man, I knew this was
something he saw in a manga.
[VILLAGERS murmuring]
[RIMURU]
Hey, everyone. I'm back.
Oh, my!
Lord Rimuru! You're safe!
We were so concerned!
We suddenly sensed signs
that the Storm Dragon Veldora
somehow returned to this land.
You did, but we'll get
to that in a moment.
First, I need to introduce
you to someone.
Everyone, this is Veldora.
He's a bit shy
around new people,
but try and make friends, 'kay?
[RIMURU]
Huh?
That's not true!
I'm not shy around new
people in the least.
It's just difficult
to make friends
when adventurers rarely
make it to you alive.
[RIGURD, BENIMARU gasp]
[RIMURU]
It's Treyni!
Our guardian, Lord Veldora.
Allow me to congratulate you
on your triumphant return.
You must be a Dryad,
I remember your kind.
Uh, thanks for watching over
the Forest of Jura for me!
[TREYNI]
I'm unworthy of your praise.
Such a small task is in no
way enough to repay you
for taking in me and my sisters.
Especially when we
were all separated
from the Queen of Spirits.
It was nothing.
[laughing]
[BOTH]
Huh?
[BOTH gasp]
[ALL]
Our Lord!
What?! He really is
the Storm Dragon?
Whoa, you gotta be kidding.
Keep taking good care
of Rimuru for me.
Though I suppose you'll
be taking care of me, too.
Hey. Why would anyone
need to look out for you?
Um, sir?
What is it?
[RIGURD]
Lord Veldora.
Excuse me, but what is your
relationship with Lord Rimuru?
[VELDORA laughs]
Shall I tell you?
[RIGURD]
Uh, yes! If you'd please.
Listen closely.
[grunts]
This is my dear friend,
the other half of my soul.
My bosom buddy!
My bosom buddy!
My bosom buddy!
[RIMURU] Cool, I'm just gonna
die from embarrassment now.
[VILLAGERS cheering]
Oh, wow!
So you're friends
with Lady Milim
and the Great Storm
Dragon as well?
[gasps]
See, I told you guys Lord
Rimuru was amazing!
Yeah, at this point,
nothing surprises me.
[RANGA] Just what you'd
expect from Master!
I have to agree. Heh.
By the way, why have you
taken a new form, my lord?
[VELDORA]
Hm?
Rimuru had this body
prepared for me!
Well? Impressed?
[TREYNI]
Of course. You look wonderful!
I know, right? I'm awesome!
[laughing]
[RIMURU grumbles]
Everything makes more sense now,
especially considering
how you appeared to us
right after Lord Veldora's
aura initially vanished!
I kept it on the DL.
Originally, I thought
it would take
well over a hundred
years to free Veldora,
so I didn't say anything
because I wasn't about to invite
in any extra trouble, you know?
Very wise.
[VELDORA laughing]
[SHUNA]
Lord Rimuru!
If you're ready,
the preparations for
the feast are complete.
Right.
You guys, we've been through
some tough times lately.
But for right now,
I say we eat, drink,
and forget about
all that other stuff!
Raise your glass.
Here's to life!
[laughs]
[VILLAGERS]
Cheers!
[RANGA howls]
[RIMURU] That feast quickly
turned into a party
wild enough to put
fraternities to shame.
We celebrated life
and being alive together.
It's delicious!
[BOTH laughing]
[VELDORA]
I took a vicious att*ck!
But I used my Exo-evade!
And then a rolling att*ck from
behind with a forward punch!
[SHION humming]
Not much longer until it's done!
[laughing]
[screaming]
[RIMURU]
Why am I here?
[BENIMARU]
Because it's dangerous to go
into unknown battles alone.
[RIMURU]
You want me to die?
Perhaps by some miracle
it might actually be good?
Not even a miracle can save
us from this fate, Benimaru.
Thanks for waiting! Dig in.
[screaming]
[BOTH groan]
No need to hold back,
I made a huge pot!
[RIMURU]
Shion.
You do know what the
word "cook" means, right?
Of course, I do, Lord Rimuru.
Look at it! It's amazing!
You just threw a whole
onion in here--
skin, roots, and everything!
The tomatoes still
have all their stems,
which you're supposed to remove,
and I don't even wanna
know what the deal is
with this bird foot thingy
that still looks alive!
Believe it or not,
I have a little trouble with
chopping up produce.
I always take out the whole
building with the stems.
Hold up. You destroy whole
buildings when you're chopping?
[SHION]
Yes.
[RIMURU yelps]
My Hercules' Edge is
fantastically sharp,
but I'm afraid it's a
bit on the long side.
[RIMURU]
You use that for cooking?!
Yep!
[chuckles]
Since I was a child, I've always
thought nothing was impossible.
But it seems I was
overconfident.
[RIMURU] I don't even know
what he's trying to say.
Listen, Shion, a sword is not
an appropriate cooking
tool, understand?
You should use a smaller, much
less destructive Kn*fe to chop.
To use another blade
would be infidelity.
I shall not budge.
Wow, you don't say.
I was gonna give you
a cooking Kn*fe as a gift,
but never mind now.
[SHION]
I was wrong! I made a mistake!
Even Hercules' Edge says
a little infidelity is fine!
[RIMURU]
I see.
Then, moving forward,
use a proper Kn*fe, got it?
[SHION]
Right!
[sighs]
[RIMURU]
Not that a new Kn*fe
would really help our situation.
I doubt what we're about to eat
can even be classified as food.
[RIMURU]
I'm a true Demon Lord now!
So eating this probably
won't k*ll me, right?
[SHION chuckles]
[gasps]
[BOTH]
It tastes good!
[giggling]
[RIMURU]
It looks like a witch's brew,
but tastes awesome!
How? What's the meaning of this?
[SHION chuckles]
[SHION]
If you must know,
when we were receiving
gifts from Lord Rimuru,
I prayed that I'd be
better at cooking!
So my gift is the unique
skill, "Master Chef"!
"Master Chef"?
Truly?
[SHION]
Thanks to my new ability,
anything I cook
tastes fantastic
no matter how I make it.
Oh, that's cool.
Thank goodness!
Right, Benimaru?
Yes.
I'm glad. Now we won't die.
C'mon, let's eat!
Yes!
It may look terrible,
but it tastes amazing. Yum!
[BENIMARU]
Yes, yes!
Even if it is a soup
of nightmares.
There's enough for seconds, too.
[RIMURU, BENIMARU]
That won't be necessary!
[SHION gasps]
[RIMURU] That night,
we learned an important lesson.
When it comes to cooking,
appearances totally matter.
Now then, I'm sure
you're already familiar,
but let me introduce him anyway.
This is Diablo, the one who
saved me from certain death.
He's new here, but he's really
strong and dependable,
so I plan to put him to work
as a second secretary.
I'd like you guys
to treat him well.
Hello, it's a pleasure to
make your acquaintance,
and thank you in advance
for all of your guidance
and encouragement.
Teach him the ropes of
the job for me, Shion.
Yes, sir, as you wish.
Oh, and Gabiru?
Sir!
[RIMURU] As of today,
you're in charge of development.
It's a temporary position,
but you'll be at the
top of the ranks.
I'm counting on you.
I happily accept!
I shall devote myself
to this honorable task!
Congratulations, Sir Gabiru!
Okay, then. I'd like to discuss
our plans for the future.
Youm and the Three Beastketeers,
this involves you guys,
so please stick
around and listen.
I'm guessing you've got an idea.
And hopefully it
has something to do
with the rescue of Lord Carrion.
So I chose to become
a Demon Lord.
We know.
[RIMURU gasps]
[RIMURU]
I said a Demon Lord.
Yes.
Like a real one.
[RIMURU]
Uhh...
You're already a Demon Lord.
[RIMURU]
Right, of course.
What I meant is that
I'm going to announce
to the whole world
that I'm a Demon Lord.
I understand.
By announcing this,
you mean to pick a fight
with the other
known Demon Lords.
Yes! Exactly right!
But even more
specifically, one dude.
Lord Clayman.
Ah.
I get it.
You want to steal the Demon
Lord's throne yourself.
Interesting.
Yep.
The guy who orchestrated
the recent att*ck
was Demon Lord Clayman.
And I have no intention of
letting him get away with it.
[RIMURU] After that,
I told everyone in the room
about my idea.
It was a lengthy meeting.
Between cleaning up
the Kingdom of Falmuth,
the need to keep the Western
Holy Church in check,
and the rescue of the
Demon Lord Carrion
like we'd promised
the Animal Kingdom,
there was a lot to cover.
Hey, Rigurd.
Sir!
Handle the talks with
the western nations.
Right! I'm at your
service, Lord Rimuru!
--[RIMURU] Benimaru.
--[BENIMARU] Sir!
[RIMURU] Gather the results
of everyone's evolutions.
If we wanna make use of all
our forces against Clayman,
then it's vital that we know
what our strengths are.
Understood. Leave it to me.
--Shion.
--[SHION] Yes?
Interrogate the w*r prisoners.
[SHION] Of course,
it would be my pleasure.
And try not to take
it too far, okay?
I'll show some restraint.
I sure hope so.
Youm and Mjurran.
Yes?
Go assist Shion.
Try and get them to
tell you what they know
about the state of Falmuth,
as much as you can.
You can count on me, Master.
It's gonna be my
kingdom, after all.
I also have a task for
the three Beastketeers,
if you guys don't mind.
You are the leader of the Forest
of Jura, you need only ask us.
Just give us your orders.
We're ready and willing
to do whatever you want.
Good.
For the time being,
rebuild your strength
for the upcoming battle.
--Right.
--'Kay!
[FUZE]
Rimuru!
[gasps]
I got here as fast as
I could in accordance
with the security pact
between Blumund and Tempest!
Whoa, it's Fuze?
[FUZE] There were so
many dead in the city.
How could those Falmuth
bastards be so cruel?
Uh. No.
They're not dead,
they just drank too much.
It's not much, but I brought
fully-armed soldiers with me!
And... they are prepared
for the worst.
Falmuth's main army doesn't
appear to have arrived yet,
but fortunately, the king
of Blumund has also sworn
to mobilize the
knights in his army!
[RIMURU]
Whoa, Fuze, slow your roll, man.
Oh, forgive me, did you already
have a plan or something?
[RIMURU]
Um, yeah. A plan.
Actually, about that...
Uh. Would you prefer
to keep it secret?
[RIMURU]
That's not it, either.
[RIMURU clears throat]
To be completely honest,
I really do appreciate
your concern about us,
but the fight's kind of over.
Uh. Sorry. What was that again?
How is it "kind of over"?
Uh, well, you know,
stuff happened.
And then I sorta, oh, I dunno,
I guess the best way to describe
it would be I wiped them out.
Meaning?
I destroyed the Kingdom
of Falmuth's whole army!
Just completely
annihilated them!
[RIMURU laughs]
Huh?
Yeah, I get how you feel.
Why don't you go relax in the
hot spring for a bit? 'Kay?
[FUZE sighs]
Um. Show the soldiers to the inn
and tell them to rest up.
They came all this way,
so we should be hospitable.
[SHUNA]
Right.
[YOUM]
C'mon, let's go.
No way, I've got more
questions for Rimuru!
Huh? There're more visitors.
Besides us?
That's right.
[RAPHAEL] Notice. Thirty
Pegasus knights approaching.
They are led by the king of
the Armed Nation of Dwargon.
It is the individual by
the name of Gazel Dwargo.
[RIMURU]
Hey, Raphael?
[RAPHAEL]
Yes?
[RIMURU] It's gonna be a hassle
to have you giving me
every little detail on
someone when they show up,
so keep it short, okay?
[RAPHAEL]
What do you mean?
[RIMURU]
I dunno, just save it
for the hostile visitors
or whatever.
[RAPHAEL]
Understood.
Hello there, Rimuru. Well met.
I heard you're a Demon Lord now.
You heard right. Things
have been kinda crazy.
You've got great timing, though.
We were just having
a big meeting
to discuss our future plans.
How fortunate.
It's best that I also take
part in this meeting. Hm?
[RIMURU]
Huh?
[grumbles]
[RIMURU gasps]
[RIMURU]
What?
[RIMURU]
When did they get here?
Universal Detect didn't
sense anything!
[RAPHAEL]
Notice.
I detect no hostile
visitors within this group,
so I did not alert you.
[RIMURU]
Oh, right.
I suppose I did say it
was a hassle earlier.
[RAPHAEL]
Hmph.
[RIMURU]
I'm sorry, okay?
Please give me clear reports
from now on, oh wise, Raphael!
[RAPHAEL sighs]
Who are you people?
Show yourselves!
Well, well, those are some
bold words from a king
who likes to hide underground.
Though I would expect
nothing less from you.
What is shocking is
that a coward like you
would actually go
and back a Demon Lord.
Ah, yes, if it isn't the
descendant of the Elves
who loves to live in
ridiculously high places.
What's wrong, was the air too
thin up in your divine city?
Though with that
body, it's unlikely.
Why yes, you have
an excellent eye.
It was made using
an artificial human.
A homunculus is perfect when
you're meeting a Demon Lord
and wanna be careful.
[RIMURU]
Whoa, a homunculus so elaborate
that I couldn't tell it
apart from a human.
I wonder if he'll teach
me how to make one.
Allow me, these people come from
the Sorcerous
Dynasty of Thalion.
I see you haven't
changed, Erald.
Neither have you, Gazel.
Pray tell, who's
your new friend?
[RIMURU]
Uh.
Oh, hey, nice to meet you.
The name's Rimuru and I'm
the leader of this forest.
What's up?
[ELALUDE grunts]
[ELALUDE]
Ah! That's enough!
It's you! The seductive
Demon Lord!
How dare you take my daughter!
Uh. Wha?
Well, I hope you've made
your peace, villain!
Hear me, o flames that burn,
dance, and rampage!
Gather, flicker, and pour
in a rain of v*olence...
Whoa, that escalated quickly!
[RAPHAEL]
Notice.
This is an extremely
high-level expl*si*n spell.
But why is it aimed at me?
O flames, burn,
dance, and rampage!
Gather, flicker, and pour
in a rain of v*olence!
Enough! You stupid idiot!
[ELALUDE groaning]
Dad, you can't just go
around exploding things!
Oh, Eren! Thank goodness
you're all right, sweetie.
Yeah, of course I'm all right.
I'm here of my own
free will, you dummy!
Oh, that's wonderful to hear.
I do apologize.
I received a report
saying my daughter
had been taken by a Demon Lord,
so needless to say,
I panicked a little.
[RIMURU]
Dude almost nuked us.
I see you're still an
overprotective father.
[ELALUDE]
I am not overprotective.
I'm merely looking
out for my daughter.
My sweet widdle pwincess!
Do you even hear yourself?
Oh, well, that's a father
for you, I suppose.
I'm sorry, Rimuru.
This extremely stupid
man is Erald Grimwald,
the archduke of the
Sorcerous Dynasty of Thalion,
and my father.
[ELALUDE clears throat]
Leader of the Great Forest of
Jura and ruler of the monsters,
it's nice to meet you.
My daughter has
aptly explained it,
but allow me to say it again.
I'm the archduke from the
esteemed Sorcerous Dynasty,
Erald Grimwald.
By all means, feel free
to call me Erald, though.
[RIMURU]
Sure thing.
[RIMURU]
Well, Eren is nobility.
Guess I should've expected
something like this.
So did you only come
here 'cause you thought
I bamboozled your daughter?
[EREN gasps]
[chuckles] Well, there may
have been anothers reason.
[RIMURU]
I figured.
I wanted to see what could keep
Eren away from me for so long.
She and her companions
seem to have become
quite attached to you.
So I have decided that
I will also be taking part
in this meeting of yours.
[gasps]
[RIMURU]
What the heck?!
All these dudes just do
whatever they want?
[sighs]
[RIMURU] With that,
the big, important meeting
to determine what Tempest would
do next was ready to begin.
[RAPHAEL] Next time, "A Meeting
of Humans and Monsters."
