Return to Tempest
Back with his companions in Tempest, Rimuru now has to deal with the new responsibilities that come with his promise to Shizu's children and his growing status. The community, which has kept developing in his absence, welcomes his return warmly while adapting to the changes this brings. Rimuru settles back into his routine while smoothly integrating these newcomers into the nation's daily life. This transitional episode sets the stage for the growing tensions with the Church that are inexorably approaching.
