The Threatened Village
As his exploration continues, Rimuru comes across a goblin village living in constant fear, threatened by a pack of giant wolves ready to pounce on them at any moment. Witnessing their distress, Rimuru chooses to get directly involved in the conflict rather than continue on as a mere bystander. This decision marks a turning point in his behavior, revealing an empathy and a sense of justice that set him apart from ordinary monsters. The confrontation to come promises to be decisive both for the village's future and for Rimuru's own.
