That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime

Episode 7: Conqueror of Flames

The great sorcerer Koenig has come to pay his respects!

Leon!

I will defeat you and become the Demon Lord myself!

You can die with your mind at ease!

Who sent a lowly creature like you here?

Still, this is a fine opportunity.

Your turn has come, Ifrit.

What's the matter?

You're ignoring me?! You'll regret underestimating me!

Oh, you want to die first?

Very well!

Go ahead and die!

Very interesting.

What did you say your name was?

Shizu...e.

Shizu E?

Hm...

As of today, you will be called Shizu.

Shizu...

Eats lots, okay?

I-It got separated from its mother...

P-Please pretend you didn't see this!

I won't tell anyone.

Can I take care of it with you?

Yes, of course!

He's eating!

So what's his name?

Monsters don't have names.

But it's sad to have no name to go by.

See? He agrees.

How about Pizu?

Pizu... That sounds good!

Right, Pizu?

Look! He got bigger!

You got bigger!

Pirino, you know you can't take Pizu to the castle.

It'll be fine. He's really smart!

But...

He's really friendly with me.

I'm sure they'll let him be my familiar.

You think so?

What's wrong, Pizu?

It's okay... Come on, it's okay!

Just calm down!

Be good, now... Pizu!

It's okay... It's okay.

Shizu...

Enemy.

What... did I just...

M-My body...

My body moved on its own...

The flames...

I... I...

So, do you like our town?

Yes, very much.

You're welcome to stay as long as you'd like, Shizu-san.

Thank you...

but I have to go.

You do?

If I stay here, I might bring trouble for you.

The goal of my journey is...

Goal?

...to find the man who summoned me.

What will you do when you find him?

Well, okay!

It's too bad, but you can come visit anytime!

You'll always be welcome! Right, Ranga?

Of course!

Okay. Thank you.

Thank you, too, Ranga.

Shizu, why don't you come back to Blumund with us?

Huh?

It'd be awfully sad to say goodbye here.

You're all exceptional adventurers.

I'm sure it would be lots of fun adventuring with you.

Well, then...

Traveling together has shown me how nice it is to be part of a group.

I'm truly grateful my last journey was made with all of you.

Shizu, what do you mean by "last"?

I've been around for decades, you know.

I'm not as young as I look.

Huh? O-Oh, you were just joking!

Gosh, don't scare me like that!

Ah, here they come.

Sorry for the wait!

Oh, we waited, all right.

Jeez, why do women take so long to get ready?

Shizu?

Is something wrong?

Not... again...

Shizu?

Hey, what's wrong with you?

Shizu!

Shizu! Shizu!

Hey! Is everyone okay?

What the hell is this?

We charge extra for hazard pay, you know!

You should be telling Fuze that!

Shizu! Shizu!

Shizu... Shizue Izawa?

Huh?

Isn't Shizue Izawa...

...the Conqueror of Flames?!

Y-You mean the hero of the guild from about 50 years ago?!

Shizu is her?

The Conqueror of...

Wasn't she retired already?

Rigurd, Rigur.

Evacuate the others.

But...

Great Rimuru...

That's an order.

Yes, sir! As you wish!

Are you there, Ranga?

Right here, Master.

Once it starts, you're up.

Of course!

The fire spirit, Ifrit...

There's no mistake, then. Shizu is...

...the legendary hero, the Conqueror of Flames.

Th-There's no way we can win if we have to fight that!

Not a chance. We're going to die here.
