The Slime Diaries (転生したらスライムだった件 転スラ日記)

300 YEARS AGO —

The only thing I vaguely remember is...

I think I went on a rampage.

And I'm pretty sure that was a different personality, not me.

So when the time comes...

That's fine.

Leave it all to me.

I promise that I will lift your seals when the time comes.

Shortly thereafter, she faded out of the limelight.

Demon Lord Luminus has kept her sealed

and hidden for several centuries since.

The way she fought...

She was worthy of being called the ultimate weapon.

She was truly a sublime being.

Demon Lord Luminus's hidden treasure...

If I were to hide it, I think it would be...

Enter.

You called for me, Lady Luminus?

Hinata, how are things in Tempest?

What... do you mean?

They formed a non-aggression pact with Lubelius

and promised cultural exchange between the two nations.

And yet...

I have seen no signs of any sort of cultural exchange.

Oh...

Their country's hot spring felt quite nice.

The sukiyaki... the tempura...

The musical performance at their festival was wonderful, as well.

So... you see where I'm going with this, no?

THAT TIME I GOT REINCARNATED AS A SLIME SEASON 4

Diablo brought back a bunch of demons.

I decided to put the three ladies he's known forever in charge of them.

Testarossa.

Ultima.

Carrera.

Since you'll be working in this country,

I'm going to assign you jobs.

Testarossa, you'll participate in the Council as our military attaché

and keep the Western Nations in line.

I humbly accept.

The Council will probably get irritating at times,

but don't forget that you're representing our nation.

You can count on me.

Even in the worst-case scenario,

I will leave no evidence of my involvement.

Ultima, you'll investigate criminal acts

as prosecutor general at our Public Prosecutor's Office.

You'll be working closely with our guard force.

I just have to find people more evil than me?

That sounds fun!

That's not exactly what it means, but...

Carrera, you'll be the chief justice of our Supreme Court.

You'll judge all cases fairly in accordance with the law.

My judgment is always fair.

I will give my all in the hope of living up to your expectations.

You might end up a target of resentment in some cases,

and there might be some people who try to bribe you...

Any who attempt to do so will be granted death equally!

I'm sure they're perfectly capable, but are they gonna be okay?

Glance.

I am certain they will be of use to you.

You just don't wanna be the one doing any of those jobs!

If any of them screw up, I'll just have Diablo take their job.

Okay, I'll be counting on you all.

Leave it to us!

With the biggest problems that had been plaguing me for months resolved,

Tempest was finally able to take a step toward becoming a constitutional state.

There's still a lot to do,

but now I should be able to relax for a while.

Ow, hot!

I'll have to be careful not to get arrested myself.

How does it feel working in the new school building, Tiss-sensei?

All of the teachers are thrilled with it.

And all the students who attend here are studying diligently.

The lessons the adults learn are directly linked to their jobs, after all.

We're still a bit short on teachers,

but we have some merchants and Crusaders helping us, so we're managing.

Better hurry or he'll get ya!

Hey, wait up!

How about the children?

They're all getting along and studying well.

Still as full of energy as ever, too.

Great Rimuru!

How lovely it is to see you again!

Wait, are you... Kumara?

Indeed I am!

So you can take on a human form now, huh?

I surely can!

Thus I have decided to attend this school with everyone else!

- Oh, yeah? Well, do your— - Sensei!

Chloe!

I didn't sense your presence at all. Nice going!

So how's school? Having fun?

Yeah!

Rimuru-sensei!

I didn't know you were here!

Kumara and Chloe got to see you first! No fair!

- You shoulda told us you were coming! - For real!

- Right, sorry about that. - Well, Sensei's busy, you know.

That's no excuse!

Demon Lord Leon Cromwell.

We have come to ask that you

allow us to stop selling you our "top-secret merchandise."

What?

A-As you are aware,

Demon Lord Rimuru is gaining power in the Western Nations.

He loathes the summoning of Otherworlders and strictly forbids it.

For this reason, we have found it difficult

to obtain enough merchandise—that is, children who couldn't become Heroes.

Rimuru, eh?

I'm afraid that can't be helped,

but you still have the East, do you not?

I can answer that.

The thing is, the East is actin' shady now, too.

Seems like they're preparin' for war behind closed doors,

which is makin' it harder to get hold of the people we need for the summoning.

But this doesn't mean we won't be doin' business anymore.

We'll be in touch as soon as we're able to summon again.

Why are your lips so loose?

Uh-oh... Did I screw up?

Tell me everything you're hiding from me.

Can't put nothin' past you, Demon Lord Leon!

Thing is, the kids Shizue Izawa took in are still out there.

- Shizu... - But, well...

it's where they are that's the problem...

Is it Tempest?

Right on the money as always!

So that's why there's nothin' we can—

- These children... - Wha?

What are their names?

Ken Mizaru, Ryozeki, Gail Ribus, Alison, and Kurobe Hoeru.

Yeah! Somethin' like that!

I doubt yer interested in merchandise ya can't get yer hands on, though.

Are those names accurate?

Eh?

Is it truly Kurobe and not Chloe?

Wow, he's gettin' awful heated.

I am terribly sorry.

All of those names are inaccurate.

I see.

W-Well, then, Demon Lord Leon, we will take our leave now.

Shall I eliminate those three?

Leave them.

I am more concerned about this war.

If enough people die, it could give rise

to the manifestation of a troublesome demon.

We already have our hands full with Jaune.

Now, as for Tempest...

Yes, sire.

I will send the Blue Knights to investigate.

Please do.

Where in the world are you,

Chloe?

Cut it out already!

What's your problem?! Shut up!

Come on, you boys! Stop playing and help us clean the classroom!

Huh? Why should we have to do a job that's such a pain in the neck?

Ken-chan, you don't want to make Alice-chan mad.

Shut up!

Today's the day I beat Alice and become the real boss!

Is that so?! Well, I'll show you just how scary I can be!

Looks like Kenya's in charge of the class all of a sudden.

And Alice is the class rep, I guess?

Hey, who do you think is gonna win today?

It's gotta be our empress, Alice!

No way Kenya can beat Alice. He's head over heels for her.

Wait, what?! He is?!

Hey, Gail! Who said you could run your mouth?!

Yeah! There's no way Kenya likes me!

Are you crazy?

These kids aren't ready for romance yet. In any case...

Excuse me... Could you all, um...

They shouldn't be giving their teacher a hard time.

Okay, that's enough!

Thanks for your help, Rimuru-sensei.

Whew... Good work handling that class, Tiss-sensei.

Hey! If it isn't His Majesty Rimuru!
