Wh-What is all this?

Poke, poke.

Oh, no! It's a trap!

Wait, what is?!

Day 9: The Arrival of Winter

One month after the harvest season of autumn...

The seasons changed in the blink of an eye,

and Tempest was preparing to greet the winter.

The wind really turned cold fast in these past few days.

Yes, it is winter now.

Everyone, make sure you dress warm.

Even with resistances, you don't want to get careless.

By the way, I had this made!

A padded kimono? It looks nice and warm.

I can't let everyone see me looking like I'm about to freeze.

But aren't you naked when you're in your slime form?

Huh?

Oh...

...dear.

Oh, Great Rimuru!

Naked...

You know, she's right! I'm buck naked right now!

I'm just strutting around in my birthday suit!

Great Rimuru!

Greetings, Great Rimuru.

Hello, Great Rimuru!

Hi!

Oh, no! What is this feeling?

It's Great Rimuru!

Hello!

My cheeks feel warm...

Hiya...

Wait! This isn't the time to be shy!

I was assembling everyone at the guard station!

Guard

So, as you all know, most of this town is made of wood.

Fire Awareness

And it'll soon be getting colder and colder.

People will be making fires for warmth,

which increases the risk of house fires.

So you'll need to both patrol and talk to people more every day.

We'll call it the Fire Awareness Campaign.

For Great Rimuru Only

The campaign mascot, who specializes in the subject, is this guy!

Tempest Fire Prevention Campaign Mascot Benimaru

Be careful of fire!

Be careful of fire!

Um... I don't... think I like this.

Huh? Why?

Let's Burn

I look like an arsonist.

Be careful of fire!

Be careful of fire!

Healing Potion Research Lab

Heya!

Ah, it's you, Great Rimuru.

It's not as bad as outside, but it's pretty cold in here, too.

Yes. I'm studying its effects on the growth of hipokute herbs.

How's it going for you, Gabiru?

Yes... Vesta.

It's growing just fine.

Good, good.

Wait, when it's winter, do you Dragonewts...

What are you saying?!

No matter what the season is, I am fully alert and aware when carrying... out...

my duties...

at... all... times...

Well, the peace and quiet do make it easier to work.

Uh... your face looks creepy.

Oh, Great Rimuru!

*Dragonewt hibernation habits vary among individuals.

You're asleep, aren't you?

Slime! ... Diaries...

Treant Forest

I'm Apito.

I'm Zegion.

Today is another day of gathering nectar.

Indeed.

There aren't many flowers in winter.

Indeed.

We need to work hard.

We got a lot, huh?

Indeed.

For Delivery

That'll do it.

Now, we must deliver it to Great Rimuru.

Tempest, the paradise for monsters...

Indeed.

Manual labor is a great thing.

Peace is a great thing.

Bug! Bug!

There's one!

Bug! Bug!

Hey, that honey...

I just want a little taste of that honey.

Honey...

Just a little lick... One little lick...

Lady Milim!

Please stop bullying the weak.

Come, now. You'll make Great Rimuru sad if only you get to taste it.

Aw...

Very well.

That was scary...

Indeed...

We must get stronger.

Shuna, I'm going out to train.

Wow, it feels so soft.

I can have this?

Of course.

I'm so happy you like it.

For Brother

You're supposed to wear those when you sleep.

What does it matter? They're warm.

Your horns are warm?

My horns are also warm.

I will be brief.

We are currently roaming the Forest of Jura.

Our goal is the city of monsters.

Yes...

The town...

...where Shizu died.

You can't be sad forever, okay?

And also the town that had the delicious grilled meat!

Huh?

Oh, I remember that meat!

It was so nice.

I hope we get there soon.

I'm so hungry...

What?!

Stop dawdling, you three!

Right...

Remember me sometimes, okay?

It's not fair that One Horn gets Rimuru all the time!

It's Shion.

Yeah, that!

Me, too! Me, too! Let me hold him, too!

To carry Great Rimuru means

to take up his noble ideals, as well as the destiny of this entire nation.

It does?

Those feelings and their gravity

are so great that even Princess Shuna cannot be entrusted with them.

Just give him to me already!

That's wrong! Hold Great Rimuru up higher!

Walk at a relaxed pace, and keep your strides even!

Your back is bent!

What's the matter, Demon Lord?
