Why... won't you finish me?

I should be the one asking you that.

Why didn't you come at me with killing intent?

What?!

The other Insects that emerged from the Gate of the Underworld...

...were desperate to take over the mortal world.

That's because it's our long-cherished dream.

You're having doubts, aren't you?

Are you opposed to it, by any chance?

The Underworld is deprived.

Unless we seize the mortal world, we have no future.

However...

I just couldn't make any sense of it...

Gran, do you think we could...

Yeah.

I actually don't mind outcasts like you.

So, how about you come with us?

Come... with you?

You would take an Insect like me?

I suppose that was unheard of.

You see...

We're about to set out on a long journey to the west.

Hence why we seek trustworthy allies.

What's your name?

I have none.

Really?

I am going to give you one, then.

All right!

From now on, you are Razul.

This is taking quite a toll on me.

I'm Maria.

And this man is...

Gran.

We're glad to have you here, Razul.

Gran.

Maria.

THAT TIME I GOT REINCARNATED AS A SLIME SEASON 4

EPISODE 95: GRANVILLE'S HOPE

EPISODE 95: GRANVILLE'S HOPE I need to rescue Chloe and Hinata's souls.

If I can interact with the two souls sleeping inside Chronoa

and speak to them through Thought Communication,

I might be able to wake them up.

But how? What are the odds...

There is a way to make your strategy more secure, Master Rimuru.

I'd like to let you know that.

And what is that?

Sir.

It is a method where, while the material bodies are in contact,

one transforms into a spiritual body and enters the other's body.

Then, by bringing the two astral bodies into contact,

it should be possible to directly interfere with the other person's soul.

It's posing too great a danger that one might not even be able to come back.

Miss Raphael.

Can't I just get through them using Thought Communication?

Answer.

Diablo's proposal has the highest probability of success.

However, the risks involved are incomparably higher.

Understood.

Thanks, Diablo.

A piece of my mind, if I may.

Sir! What is it?

You're putting me on too high a pedestal.

You are humble as ever.

Well then, I wish you the greatest luck, Master Rimuru.

I was not being humble, dang it.

But how can I get Chronoa to calm down?

I can't get close with the way she is now.

How about using a magic-suppressing mask?

Charys?!

Crap, I blurted that out!

Even Charys knows what I've been thinking?

That mask was an item powerful enough to seal me.

Perhaps it also has the effect of stabilizing this person's mind.

I see.

The mask I inherited from Shizu and handed down to Chloe might have a chance.

Wait a minute?

Where is that mask now?

If it's gone back in time with Chloe,

does that mean it will eventually find its way back to Shizu?

If so, where on earth did that mask come from to begin with?

No, I'll concern myself with that later.

Miss Raphael, can you recreate the mask?

Answer.

Would you like to create a replica of the magic-suppressing mask?

Yes.

Lend me your strength, Shizu.

Now I just need them to create an opening for me.

Stay behind me, everyone!

I'm also a member of Dungeon...

You should get behind as well!

Where did Chloe go?

That girl, I swear.

I know she's strong, but gosh...

I want to go search for her, but...

What now?!

You still won't surrender?

Fine. This ends here.

I'll take you down and hurry to Gran's aid.

You think I'll let you go?

Death Storm!

A special force field, eh?

My magic hasn't gotten through him for a while now.

Even Shion's attacks met the same fate.

Could that exoskeleton be harder than steel?

His power is off the charts.

Not even my Ultra Instinct can help me dodge it.

I never expected that an Insect's complete form would be this powerful!

I've heard about what happened to Mariabell.

So this must be your last bet.

Yeah.

She was a girl who reminded you of Maria in some way.

I suppose so...

She was the only one who could be my successor.

Even I don't know how much longer I will live.

Never thought you'd end up here...

Where all hope is lost for you.

It was one hardship after another, and you've endured them all.

Yet things went south just as you were about to fulfill your long-held wish...

Gran. You will fulfill that wish, right?

I will always walk the same path as you do.

No matter what that path may be.

I'm sure I've told you this, but...

I trust in you.

You can rely on me, Gran.

I will fulfill your wish.

Nay.

Our long-cherished wish.

I won't let anyone stand in our way.

You should rest for a while, Ranga. I have Ultra Fast Recovery.

Nonsense! That guy is strong.

We don't even stand a chance against him together!

I'll be fine. I think I'm getting the hang of it.

I just need you to hold your power until I give the signal.

Understood.

Such admirable resolve!

I'll knock that smug out of your face!

Oni's innate skill: Battle Oni.

BATTLE ONI Oni's innate skill: Battle Oni.

It boosts my strength, stamina, and spirit,

with the cost of immense strain.

I have to finish this before I lose myself!

I cannot afford to be defeated here.

If I die now, the situation will take a critical turn for the worse.

Even if I can't win,

I should at least buy some time and keep him occupied here.

But I must stay alive.

Not that I intend to give up on winning, though.

I'm going to win and have Master Rimuru shower me with praise.

Shion?

Enough with your cheap trick.

Shion's abilities have improved significantly during this battle.

This was the same person who used to only rely on brute force?

Not yet...

This is nothing!

With my Unique Skill, Master Chef, it doesn't matter how hard something is.

I'll bend and crush the laws with my Guaranteed Results!

My target's clear...

...to destroy its exoskeleton!

Even if I have to push this far...

Shion, you have to let me help you!

No! Not yet, Ranga!

This is futile.

Shion!

Admit your loss.

Won't you submit to me?

Ridiculous.

What?

You want me to submit to you?

My true desire is to reach the lofty heights.

What are you saying?

Not the brightest bug in the swarm, are you?

What I'm saying is...

I'll surpass you.

None of your attacks touch me.

Admit it. You are weak.

A weakling like you won't achieve a thing.

Yeah.

That's right.

You're absolutely right.

I...

...am weak.

As an ogre, strength was a symbol of justice to me.

The weak die.

That's simply how things are for monsters.

Which is why the rule Master Rimuru set for us,

"Do not look down on other races,"

never resonated with me.

That is, until I experienced death firsthand, when I learned the fear of being killed.

When Master Rimuru saved me afterwards,

I felt a sense of relief.

Listen closely, Shion. What matters the most is...

To see a soul for what it truly is.

Master Rimuru has taught me this.

The value of a soul is determined by how one lives.

Their strength matters not.

None of that defines their value.

Behold my way of life!

I'm ashamed to admit this, but...

There were times when I grew anxious about how I fell short compared to Diablo.

I worried that, since I wasn't strong enough,

Master Rimuru might abandon me someday.

That... is my weakness!

What good is it to envy others?

I must focus only on myself.

I must overcome myself!

Confirmed.

Battle Oni, the innate skill from the individual

BATTLE ONI named Shion, has evolved

BATTLE ONI into the unique skill Battle God.

BATTLE GOD into the unique skill Battle God.

Get ready.

Futile, I say. Nothing you do will shatter my outer shell.

Silence!

Here's a quick lesson for you.

The goddess of victory smiles upon those who never give up until the very end!

Let's do this!

Battle God Release!

Such crushing pressure...

But this is nothing!

Ranga!

Roger!

Impudent fool!

Chaotic Fate!

Now!

You got it!

Just wait for me, Chloe, Hinata.

I will definitely rescue your souls!

I'm sorry, Gran.

Looks like this is it for me.

I'm going first.

I'll be at our promised place.

See you.

Shion!

Ranga, let's handle things here...

The world has crushed yet another hope of mine.

Like it always did.

My friend has passed away.

Must be Razul.

All the more reason to destroy this world.

Stop your nonsense!

You can dwell in your own despair for all I care.

Me? In despair?

Oh, you're sorely mistaken.

Actually, it was just about now...

...that my heart was filled with hope!

I've made a promise...

...to my loved one and to my friend.

Time to honor that.

Confirmed.

The requirements have been met.

Nefarious, a Unique Skill from the individual named Granville Rosso...

has evolved into an Ultimate Skill: Sariel.

Hope, you say?

Yes.

I'm all set.

Have you done it, Rimuru?

Now all I can do is trust you.

Lady Luminus. Let's sever our karmic bonds...

and settle this once and for all.

Very well. I shall take your resolve to heart.

And rest assured, I will definitely kill you.

My Asmodeus and Gran's Sariel.

Both powers were likely related to life and death.

Under the same circumstances, the one with the stronger will wins.

The outcome lies in a split second.

Requiem for the Dead!

Fortitude!

Very impressive, Lady Luminus.

Is this...

Chronoa's spiritual world...

I suppose?

I guess I've made my way in?

That said, I still have no clue where to go next...

Hi.

Long time no see, Slime.

Wait. Satoru, was it?

Shizu?!

Right. I see it now.

This must be what they'd call a mental image.

Please. I go by Rimuru now.

I've no intention of throwing my past away,

but it makes me shy when people call me that.

Well then, let's go.

Huh?

She's beautiful.

You're here to meet her, right?

Chronoa?!

Can we talk to her?

She is also lashing out and losing control out there.

Well?

All right.

Let's start with a dialogue.

Chronoa?

Rimuru, is that you?

Y-Yeah...

Are you... real?

Yeah, the one and only. The real Rimuru.

Rimuru!

This wasn't how I expected it to go, to be honest...

I thought she'd be more... hostile.

That being said...

A beautiful girl hugging a slime...

I think I'm down for that.

You must've gone through a lot.

I've missed you too, Hero.

She really does look like Chloe.

So she indeed is Chloe's grown-up version.

I still want to know why she was going wild, though...

Um. Chronoa, right?

Yes, I am Chronoa.

I'm the embodiment of the Will of Destruction sealed inside Chloe.

I am also kind of her other personality.

I don't think I'd have developed consciousness...

...hadn't Hinata given me a name, though.

S-Sure?

I'm not sure, but it looks like there's a complicated reason behind it.

You see, I came here to look for Chloe and Hinata.

Huh?

Can I meet them?

I'm afraid you can't.

Why?

Chloe, for instance.

She has wandered deep within my heart, trapped in the Unlimited Imprisonment.

As for Hinata...

Hinata...

She's no longer with us.

What?

Next time: The Awakening of the Hero.
