00:00Sorry to keep you waiting.
00:02Oh.
00:05No, we just got here.
00:07Y-Your Majesty Gazelle!
00:09What's going on here?
00:11King Kinsaku was worried that you might collapse, so he consulted with the King Gazelle.
00:17He thought he could handle it if he was the king of the Zou Heikoku near Dwarf.
00:22But we only managed to prepare 1,500 copies, so it's not much.
00:27Still, it's a big help.
00:29So, is that enough money for the merchants?
00:33Hmm...
00:35It's a lot of money, but I'd like to have a few hundred more copies.
00:39How dare you make such a big deal out of such a small budget.
00:44It was just a spur of the moment.
00:46It was a short period of time, so it can't be helped.
00:49I don't know where to start.
00:52No, I mean...
00:53Everyone was so excited.
00:56Then I'll prepare the rest for you.
01:00Huh?
01:03El Messiah?
01:08Well, I did consult with His Majesty,
01:12and I'd like to ask for your cooperation.
01:15Oh...
01:16No, I'll take care of that.
01:19Hmm...
01:20I only asked for your cooperation
01:24because I wanted to see how the two countries would work together.
01:26No, I mean...
01:28Give it up.
01:30Once that woman says something, she won't back down.
01:33You should be honest and cooperate with her.
01:36Oh, Gazelle.
01:38So you're on my side.
01:41I'm so happy.
01:43Don't call me that.
01:45Gazelle...
01:48Anyway, what is your goal?
01:51You're as stubborn as ever.
01:53Your grandfather was a man of his word.
01:57Your father had a hard time because of your grandfather.
02:00Rather than that, you should just tell me what you want.
02:04You're so nosy.
02:06I guess I'm not that easy to please.
02:09Oh...
02:10Oh, I'd like a drink, too.
02:12Yes, I'll be right back.
02:15Oh, this is delicious, too.
02:21I see.
02:22I have one request for your cooperation.
02:28I can't allow you to secretly plan such an interesting festival.
02:34If you invite me again,
02:36I'll gladly cooperate with the two countries.
02:39G-Gladly?
02:41The royal family is not a slave to the people.
02:46The people are happy when the royal family lives freely.
02:50I'm happy, too.
02:52I think everyone will be happy.
02:56That makes sense.
02:57I agree with you.
03:00I'm glad to have you as a partner.
03:02I look forward to working with you.
03:05I'm glad to have you as a partner.
03:08I only have my own pocket money here.
03:12I only have about 1,000 gold pieces.
03:16If you need more, I'll prepare it and bring it to you.
03:19No, that's enough for now.
03:22Would you like to exchange it for 10 pure gold pieces?
03:26Sure.
03:27Keep your promise.
03:30Of course.
03:31All we have to do is ask Dwargon to exchange 1,500 pieces.
03:35That's great, Rimuru-sama.
03:40Our plan to make Rimuru-sama a laughingstock is a failure.
03:45But I'm sure there are people who would like to cooperate
03:48even if they don't have enough gold pieces.
03:51What do you mean?
03:54If you want to obey your opponent,
03:56instead of taking coercive measures such as intimidation or fear,
04:00it's much easier to sell your gratitude.
04:03I see.
04:05So there are people who would try to meddle even when you don't ask them to.
04:09That's right.
04:11That may be the case.
04:13But I think that person is also a puppet of someone else.
04:20They try to sell their gratitude and make their friends listen
04:23while causing trouble for themselves.
04:26It's certainly a possible strategy.
04:29However...
04:31While showing that this country has no trust in you,
04:35you're able to sell your gratitude.
04:38How ambitious.
04:39That's a very human way of thinking.
04:43I've learned a lot.
04:45In other words,
04:46there may be people who are trying to meddle in our affairs
04:48and try to take advantage of us.
04:52I don't understand what you're talking about,
04:54but do you know anyone who would try to do that?
04:57I don't know anyone either.
04:59I mean, Sullyon isn't even a member of the Council.
05:03But I'm sure he knows someone who is.
05:07Who? Me?
05:11I've heard rumors.
05:13There's a Shadow Council that controls the Western countries.
05:18So those people are the ones behind all this?
05:23Yes.
05:24If a suspicious person is trying to meddle in our affairs,
05:28we should investigate their background
05:30and expose their connections.
05:33I'm surprised.
05:34You're not letting me sense anything.
05:37That's why I told you, Your Majesty.
05:39These people are abnormal,
05:41so it's dangerous to visit them in their flesh.
05:46But it was an interesting experience.
05:49So, Rimuru,
05:51may I ask you a question?
05:53Yes, what is it?
06:01I'm thinking of making a pact with those people.
06:06But before that, I'd like to hear your thoughts.
06:12I'm all ears.
06:13What are you going to do with those demons?
06:18And what is that dangerous phenomenon?
06:21Phenomenon?
06:23Well, it's true that it's strong,
06:26but Diablo is doing a good job,
06:28so it's not dangerous.
06:31Let's change the subject.
06:34If those demons go berserk,
06:36how are you going to take responsibility?
06:39Go berserk?
06:40That's not a bad idea,
06:42but it's not just Diablo.
06:44Or Xion, for example.
06:46I'll stop them before they go berserk.
06:49That's the only way to prevent damage.
06:53Why do you look so happy?
06:56Huh?!
06:57Um, wait a minute.
06:59I didn't think it through,
07:01but you're going to stop those demons?
07:03You'll take responsibility?
07:05Yes.
07:06It's true that they tend to go berserk,
07:08but now they understand what I'm trying to say.
07:11Compared to before, they've become a lot calmer.
07:15Hey, did you hear that, Eralda?
07:17Demon King Rimuru is bigger than I thought.
07:21Oh, forget it, Lord Elmeshia.
07:26This is what Rimuru is like.
07:27I'll support her.
07:29When something happens,
07:32I promise that I, Gazelle D'Argo, will help Rimuru.
07:38I understand what you're trying to say.
07:41If you become an enemy of humanity,
07:44I'll do everything I can to stop you.
07:48Let's maintain our friendly relationship
07:50and hope for a deeper bond between the two countries.
07:53Eralda.
07:54Yes?
07:55Let's make sure that Chin also recognizes
07:58the official friendship between the Demon King, Sarion,
08:00and the Juratenpest Federation.
08:03The rest is up to you.
08:06Yes, ma'am.
08:07If anything happens,
08:09talk to me or Gazelle
08:11and make sure you don't go berserk.
08:13You know, I may look like this, but I'm a very thoughtful person.
08:18Rimuru.
08:20Who was the one who came up with the idea to hold the international tournament?
08:24It was Mjolnir, wasn't it?
08:26No, it wasn't, Lord Rimuru.
08:28I understand. I understand.
08:31I'll talk to him properly from now on.
08:34It's not right to say that to the king of another country.
08:38It's different in your case.
08:41That's right. I'll make a request.
08:43Speaking of requests, there's one more important thing.
08:48Is there still a problem?
08:50No, no. It's not a problem.
08:53It's a request from me.
08:56I'd like you to introduce me to Mr. Yoshida.
08:59Hey, Your Majesty!
09:00What are you talking about in the middle of nowhere?
09:03That's what I'm here for.
09:05Huh?
09:06Please don't force Mr. Yoshida to do anything.
09:10Of course I won't.
09:13And so, the three-way tournament held in the middle of the night
09:18came to an end in secrecy.
09:23And now, the finals are about to begin!
09:27Who will be the winner?
09:31Masayuki, who was the first to advance,
09:33or Gometa, who was the second to advance?
09:38I don't feel like I can run away.
09:41In that case, I'm going to win and get a new fishing rod!
09:48What do I do? How do I get out of here alive?
09:50There's no way I can win.
09:51If I fought like I did yesterday, I'd have been killed.
09:55No, wait.
09:57Then, please begin!
10:00That's right.
10:01My power, which people mistake for my own,
10:03was used in yesterday's match.
10:05I think I can do it today.
10:08Fight!
10:11Let's do this!
10:18Oh, so the one with the higher screen resolution is stronger?
10:22Masayuki is showing off his ability
10:25by ignoring Gometa's tricky moves!
10:31Just as I expected.
10:33That reaction means I'm useless no matter what I do.
10:39I wanted to see how far I could go with my current ability.
10:44In that case, I'll use it!
10:46I'll use this new, ultimate power!
10:49Come to think of it, Raphael said something yesterday.
10:54Yes.
10:55Last night, Gobuta Kotaime obtained a unique skill,
10:58the Power King.
11:00It is speculated that Ranga Kotaime forced him to use it,
11:04but he's now able to unify with the Ranga he summoned.
11:08Unify with Ranga?
11:10Is he going to be okay in the actual match?
11:14Take a good look at this!
11:16Henshin!
11:31Whoa!
11:36Wait a minute. What's that? I didn't hear about that!
11:40Hey, if I get hit by that big claw,
11:43I won't be able to equip anything like this!
11:46Wow! That's so cool!
11:49What's that?
11:50That's so cool!
11:53Th-This is...
11:55Gobuta Kotaime has transformed into a different form!
11:59It's a very rare skill that has the power of a summoning beast in its body.
12:03That means Gobuta Kotaime can use Ranga's power as his own!
12:09This is amazing!
12:10Something amazing is happening!
12:12I'm so excited!
12:15So he can freely use Ranga's power?
12:19Ranga seems to have given Gobuta the initiative,
12:22but this is a better combination than I expected.
12:25But it's that Gobuta.
12:27Ha ha ha.
12:28He's still my disciple.
12:31He's a lowly man, but he has the experience of fighting a high-ranking demon.
12:36If he can use Ranga's power,
12:39he'll show us an unexpected level of growth.
12:45It's my turn next!
12:47Just now, it was your turn, but Masayuki hasn't done anything yet.
12:54Wait a minute!
12:57Gobuta Kotaime's Ranga
13:04Whoa!
13:05Are Gobuta Kotaime and Ranga okay?
13:08What happened?
13:11That idiot.
13:13It seems he wasn't able to use Ranga's power.
13:18That guy!
13:20He was so cool, but what's with that attitude?
13:23Well, Gobuta did his best, even though he was a lowly man.
13:28Rimuru, you shouldn't be spoiling him like that.
13:33That's right, Rimuru.
13:35I think I spoiled him a little too.
13:38You spoiled him with that?
13:40Okay, I'll train him!
13:43Rimuru, leave Gobuta to me.
13:46I'm sure he'll grow up to be a great warrior.
13:50Gobuta, master...
13:53Huh?
14:00That must have been Masayuki's air throw.
14:04Y-Yeah, that's all there is to it.
14:06Whoa! That was amazing!
14:09I couldn't see it at all!
14:12You can't see it.
14:14He didn't do it.
14:16He didn't even try to dodge it.
14:18If he had hit it...
14:19We have the results!
14:21Gobuta still hasn't regained consciousness, but...
14:25This is bad! If this continues, I'll win!
14:28A challenge to Maoi?
14:29You've got to be kidding me!
14:30That's a suicide!
14:31The winner of this match is...
14:33Wait!
14:35Um...
14:38This match is my loss.
14:44Um, but Master Masayuki...
14:47That was obviously Gobuta's air throw, but...
14:51That might be true.
14:53But I couldn't bear to watch him attack.
14:57I thought it was too soon to challenge the Demon King with such inexperience.
15:06My power is effective,
15:09so even if I don't say anything, the audience will come up with all kinds of ideas and accept them.
15:15But right now, running away from this place is the best thing to do.
15:18What is he thinking?
15:22I don't know.
15:23He didn't threaten Gobuta.
15:26I wonder what he's up to.
15:28Maybe he can't get serious in front of the Demon King.
15:31No, no.
15:32It's a bit of a shame that he couldn't bear to watch him attack.
15:34I see! I get it!
15:36Master Masayuki must have given the Demon King a hard time.
15:40What do you mean?
15:41This is a message from Master Masayuki saying,
15:44I can win this tournament anytime.
15:46If I'm going to do evil, I won't keep quiet.
15:49That's Master Masayuki's message.
15:51I see.
15:52Now that you mention it, there's something I don't understand.
15:54Master Masayuki didn't use his sword this time either, right?
15:58You've noticed it well.
16:00That's right!
16:01What a...
16:02What a great person!
16:03That's Master Masayuki for you!
16:06He's such a cool guy!
16:08Masayuki! Masayuki! Masayuki!
16:14Masayuki! Masayuki! Masayuki!
16:19What's going on?
16:21Why is he getting so much praise?
16:23I suspect that it's the effect of Masayuki Honjou's unique skill.
16:29It stimulates the audience's emotions and induces them to think like a warrior.
16:34Its influence is enormous.
16:36I don't want to turn him against me.
16:38I mean, he's someone I should get along with.
16:42Soe.
16:43Yes?
16:44Tell Masayuki that I want to invite him to lunch after this.
16:49Make sure he's well-prepared.
16:50Yes, ma'am.
16:52It's been an unexpected series of events,
16:55but due to Masayuki's situation,
16:57Gobuta has won the tournament!
16:59Huh?
17:00So, Gobuta, how do you feel right now?
17:03Huh?
17:05Really?
17:08I won?
17:10Yes!
17:11Gobuta's performance was truly amazing!
17:16Now, let's begin the award ceremony!
17:21The runner-up, Masayuki Yuusha!
17:23I praise your efforts!
17:28T-Thank you very much.
17:30I'll tell you my name later.
17:32You look like you've made up your mind,
17:35but are you sure you're not mistaken?
17:39Well done, Gobuta!
17:41From now on, I'll officially appoint you as one of the Four Heavenly Kings!
17:45Thank you!
17:47I'll do my best from now on, too!
17:49Oh, yeah.
17:51I'm sure you'll do your best from now on.
17:54Huh?
17:55It's about time.
17:57Then I'll be the one to train you!
18:01Don't worry about it.
18:04I'll train you in the dungeon, so you'll be able to revive even if you die.
18:08Train me?
18:09M-Master Mirim!
18:10I didn't ask for that!
18:13Gobuta, this is a good opportunity,
18:15so do your best to train under Master Mirim.
18:19M-Master!
18:21I'll do my best!
18:22Shut up.
18:24My master,
18:25thanks to Master Gobuta's help,
18:27I was able to win the tournament!
18:29That was easy.
18:31Wait!
18:33Without you, Gobuta's training won't be complete.
18:38I won't do anything bad, so don't worry!
18:41Here I go!
18:43Goodbye, Gobuta.
18:45Goodbye, Ranga.
18:47I won't forget your bravery.
18:53M-May I say, nice to meet you?
18:56I'm Honjou Masayuki, also known as Senkou and Yusha.
19:00We haven't met before, but it's nice to meet you.
19:04I'm Rimuru Mao, also known as Satoru Mikami.
19:07I used to be a salaryman.
19:10Wait, are you Japanese?
19:13Well, I guess I'll have to eat while I talk.
19:16Wait, can I really eat this?
19:19Of course.
19:20I made this Japanese-style dish for you.
19:24Is this my last supper?
19:26No, it's not.
19:27I want to get to know you better, since we're on the same page.
19:33Then...
19:35I'll eat it.
19:36Here you go.
19:47I'm glad it was in your mouth.
19:50I don't want to get in your way,
19:51so let's talk after I finish.
19:54Episode 1
19:56I understand.
19:58I'm Mikami... No, I'm Rimuru's subordinate.
20:02Subordinate?
20:04No, it's fine.
20:05I have no regrets about being a hero.
20:08To be honest, I was embarrassed when you called me Masayuki.
20:13Here you go.
20:14Oh...
20:15I was just thinking about how to get out of here.
20:20You're quite honest.
20:23My power, my unique skill...
20:25You call me a chosen one?
20:28You've got to be kidding me.
20:30I love manga and Ranobe,
20:31so I've always wanted to be a hero.
20:34So even if you want to quit,
20:36your surroundings and situation will make you a hero?
20:40But that's a lot of power.
20:42If you didn't give up, you would've been the winner.
20:45Even that pig would transform into such a ferocious form.
20:49If you think about it, there's no way I could've won.
20:53But you promised to fight Gozuul again.
20:56What are you going to do?
20:58Are you going to try and capture the dungeon?
21:01W-What should I do?
21:03Don't worry.
21:05Gozuul protects the 50th floor basement.
21:08The dungeon is huge,
21:10so it'll take a few days to get there.
21:13So if I pretend to go on a mission,
21:15I can survive today?
21:18That's right.
21:20I'd like to ask you for a favor.
21:22Can you be an advertisement for the dungeon?
21:25Of course, I guarantee your safety.
21:28I'm glad to hear that.
21:31If I'm not at risk of losing my life,
21:33I can take on the challenge without any worries.
21:35I hope you can use the information to make it work.
21:38Also, if you notice any improvements,
21:41don't hesitate to let me know.
21:43Understood.
21:44You sound like a game test player.
21:49Now that you mention it, I guess I am.
21:51Well, you don't have to push yourself today.
21:54Just aim for the 5th floor.
21:56Okay.
21:57I'm glad I got to talk to you, Rimuru.
22:00My worries are gone,
22:01and I feel like this world isn't so bad.
22:05Like I said before,
22:06you can stay in this town as long as you want,
22:08so let's keep in touch.
22:10Are you sure?
22:12There's a bathroom and a bath in this country?
22:15There's an orchestra, and I'm studying painting.
22:18I'm planning to make theater popular soon.
22:21I want to have fun too,
22:23so I'm not going to push myself in that area.
22:26I really respect you, Rimuru.
22:28Wait, are you into manga?
22:31Of course I am, Masayuki.
22:34It's a long way to get there,
22:36but if I give up, that's the end of it.
22:40I'm going to follow you, Rimuru!
22:43This is how I made new friends.
22:47I'm interested in the manga in his memory,
22:50and I want to be good friends with him from now on.
23:13I'm going to follow you, Rimuru!
23:15This is how I made new friends.
23:17I'm interested in the manga in his memory,
23:20and I want to be good friends with him from now on.
23:23I'm going to follow you, Rimuru!
23:25This is how I made new friends.
23:28I'm interested in the manga in his memory,
23:31and I want to be good friends with him from now on.
23:34I'm going to follow you, Rimuru!
23:37This is how I made new friends.
23:40I'm interested in the manga in his memory,
23:42and I want to be good friends with him from now on.
24:12I'm interested in the manga in his memory,
24:15and I want to be good friends with him from now on.
