Sophia: Guess I underestimated, those guys.

Wrath: I also worried. That Izuku guy is something.

Arial: Agreed. Who the event would turn out like this.

Sophia: So, should we go and get them when they reach the surface?

White: Let's wait until they get stronger before we do get them. They're not at their potential yet.

Arial: If that's your order, then I won't stop you.

Meanwhile

Elsewhere in the Forest of Jura, the ground starts to shake. The ground then breaks as something rises up from the earth's surface. The one who came out of the ground was Dalamadur with Deku, Kumoko, Obanai and Mitsuri on her back.

Dalamadur: Alright, everyone. This is the stop.

Everyone jumps off Dalamadur's back as she heads back inside the tunnel. The four said goodbye to Dala as she left. Also, Kumoko evolved again after fighting a monster.

Kumoko: *😎* Ahhh, finally, freedom. The wind, the fresh air, the birds flying, and lastly, the light of the sun.

Kaburanaru: Agreed.

Deku: From what Dala told us, this is the Forest of Jura.

Mitsuri: I wonder if there's a village nearby.

Obanai: Maybe.

Deku: Let's explore around the forest and see if there is a village somewhere.

They nodded as they traveled around the forest. Meanwhile, Ochako and Kanao join the goblin riders on the hunt for meat. We get a flashback of Ochako and Kanao hugging Noir and Emma.

Emma: It's going to be sad to see you guys staying in the Forest of Jura.

Ochako: Well, we want to help Rimuru make peace between humans and monsters.

Kanao: It was fun traveling with you two when it lasted.

Noir: Well, we be heading back to the guild to report to the guild master about Rimuru and Shizu.

Emma: I wonder what journey Shizu is having?

Ochako: I'm sure she's having a good time.

The Flashback ends with Ochako and Kanao hunting deer. With a swift attack, they took it down.

Rigur: *😀* Nice clean kill. 

Girls: Thanks.

Gobta: With you girls on our side, this might make our hunt easier.

Ochako: Well don't rely on us too much. You guys need to learn how to hunt on your own, right Kanao?

Kanao was about to nod when she felt something ominous in the wind.

Ranga: Something wrong, Kanao.

Kanao: ...Get down!

Suddenly two projectiles were aimed at them as they barely dodged them. The projectiles cause a lot of destruction around them as the trees fall down. Kanao has a good sense of eyes and spots what the projectiles are.

Kanao(Mind): Temaris? That means someone is from Japan. But who?

All of a sudden, they hear someone laughing childishly. That's when the figure appears behind a tree which Ochako and Kanao notice who that is. It was Susamaru, she wore the same black and orange kimono but she had three horns, two were long and black and the small one in the middle was red.

Susamaru: *Laughs* Wow! Looks like we got some skilled majins here.

Gobta: We?

Suddenly, 7 figures appear alongside Susamaru.

(Yahaba has two green horns)

Ochako: This is going to be a lot more difficult than we thought.

Kanao: *Nods*

Meanwhile, Deku and the four were looking around until the green dragon humanoid scene something off in the air. All of a sudden, fly off in a particular direction with the four follow suit.

Kumoko: What did Deku scene?

Obanai: Probably something bad is happening.

Mitusri: Then let's hurry before it's too late.

Everyone: Hai!

Back with Ochako and the others, they are dealing with ogres who are putting up a fight than them. Some of the team were put to sleep thanks to the pink ogre girl leaving only Ochako, Kanao, Rigur, Gobta and Ranga. What makes things more difficult is the combo between Susamaru and Yahaba's demon arts. With Yahaba's arrows guiding Susamaru's temaris everywhere and with the ogres attacking them at the same time, it makes it hard for the team to beat them. Ochako uses her magic to block the attacks from all sides.

Ochako: These guys are a real pain to deal with!

Kanao: Agreed.

The Red Ogre attacks Ochako's shield which instantly breaks. The two were shocked to see that the barrier was easily shattered but the force of the Red Ogre. The Red Ogre sets his target on Ochako since she seems the most powerful one of the two, but was pushed back by Kanao and tries to attack him when the old Oger intervenes and deals with her. Ochako used her vampire magic by using blood to shoot projectiles at him. But unfortunately, the red ogre blocks and slashes through them as he dashes toward her. The Vampire Mage was about to dodge until she slipped by Yahaba's arrows. Ochako closes her eyes as she waits for the blade to cut her. But nothing happened. Ochako was confused until she opened her eyes and saw a figure save her. That's when she hears a familiar voice from the figure.

???: No need to get hurt, Ochako. Because I Am Here!

Tears start to appear in her eyes as she smiles at her savior.

Ochako: *🥹* Deku...?

Deku: Sorry for taking so long to find you.

Ochako then hugs Deku as they share a moment. He puts her down and gets ready to battle the red ogre. The Red Ogre puts his sword at Deku.

Red Ogre: I don't know who you are, but this is not your business.

Deku: It is to my business. I don't know why you're attacking my friends, but I won't let you hurt those I love!

Red Ogre: Then you'll die along with the rest of them.

Deku and the Red Ogre charge at each other as the clash begins. Elsewhere, Yahaba was in trees away from the fight until Kumoko attacked him by using Wind Magic knocking him off the tree. With the arrows gone. Susamaru's temaris stopped which confused her. She was then pinned by Obanai as Mitusri help Ranga deal with the big ogre and ninja ogre.

Ranga: I don't who you guys are, but thanks.

Mitsuri: You're welcome.

???: Ranga!

Mitsuri and Ranga turn to see Rimuru in human form and is wearing a mask. Ranga runs up to his master as Mitusri deals with the two ogres. Kanao was dealing with the old ogre and was to push him back causing the old man to step back. Rigur retreated to Rimuru as he got healed. Deku and the ogre clash for a bit until they step back returning to the teams.

Rimuru: Ranga, what happened to the rest of the hunting party?

Ranga: Oh. They've been put to sleep with magic.

Ochako: The girl with the pink hair is responsible for it.

Deku: Looks like we got ourselves some trouble.

Rimuru: Agreed.

Kaburanaru: What are they?

Rigur: Their ogres.

Obanai(Mind): Ogres? I thought they were Onis.

Rimuru(Mind): The Ogres in the video games are always so jacked. But these guys and gals look way different. They're even wearing armor.

Mitsuri: *To Kumoko* Looks like some of them are using katana.

Kumoko: Yeah, they are.

Deku(Mind): Two of the eight look Japanese. Are they from our world?

Rimuru: Listen up. I don't know what happened, but we don't want any trouble. Would you be willing to talk this out?

Ogres:...

Deku: I don't think they're gonna cooperate.

Kanao: *Nods*

Rimuru(Mind): They're obviously very strong, and yet Gobta and Rigur weren't fatally wounded. In fact, most of our team was only put to sleep. *🤔* There must be a reason for that...

Red Ogre: Stop messing around, majins. Show us who you really are.

Kumoko: Hold on, what did you call us?!

Red Ogre: *To Rimuru* Enslaving monsters is not a feat that a mere human could accomplish without using magic.

Deku: 🤨

Red Ogre: Enough trickery! Hiding your appearance and aura won't save you.

Old Ogre: Reveal your true identity.

Ninja Ogre: It appears the mastermind has come to us. Should make things easier.

Rimuru(Mind): What?! But my true identity is just a squishy, yet adorable little slime monster!

Ochako: Hold on. You guys are mistaken. 

Red Ogre: Ha, there is no mistake, that mask is all we need to know.

Rimuru: Huh? My mask? Okay, now I know this is a misunderstanding. This is just a keepsake from a friend.

Red Ogre: *Points his sword at Rimuru* I'll hear no more! I will avenge my fallen brethren, even if it means taking your head.

Kumoko: Okay, hold on, I know I just got here, but let's just talk things out like-

Red Ogre: Shut up, you slut insect!

Kumoko(Mind): Did he just call me a slut?! *😡* Also, I'm an arachnid!

Red Ogre: Today you will die, evil-

???: Enough! This is not how we settle things. 

Everyone: ?!?

Everyone turns around and sees a tall man who turns out to be Gyomei who is also an ogre. He still wears the same clothes but like Susamaru and Yahaba, he has two brown horns. 

Slayers: Gyomei-san!

Gyomei: Your Majesty, I understand why you are doing this, but jumping to a conclusion isn't gonna help avenge your tribe.

Red Ogre: But sir, You saw what they did to our people. And that mask the human wears confirms my suspicions.

Rimuru: Which is what?

Red Orge: *To Rimuru* That you are obviously one of them.

Rimuru: Who's "them?"

Red Ogre: *Clinch his sword* It is unthinkable that we mighty Ogres would be defeated by a bunch of lowly Orcs.

Deku: Orcs?

Rimuru: Whoa, can we just back up for a second?

Red Ogre: Silence! I know it was you and the work of your majin comrades.

Rimuru: Uh, come again?

Red Ogre: It was you!!!

Gyomei: Wait, your Majesty, if they are really are the majins we are looking for, they would have more powerful armies than goblins. I and the three people you see are friends I told you about. Susamaru, Yahaba, take a look at them again.

Susamaru: *Realized* Yeah, you're right, I know they look familiar.

Yahaba: Guess we're too busy we didn't even realize that we were fighting our friends.

Gyomei: The aura I feel, they are very powerful on their own with any help.

Everyone: *Nods*

Gyomei: So let's talk to him first before we do anything else.

Rimuru: How about it, are you more willing to talk now?

Red Ogre: Very well. *To Rimuru* Tell us human who you are. Really.

Rimuru: Me? I'm just a friendly slime. Watch.

Rimuru transforms back into his slime form which catches some of the ogres off guard. Those who didn't see Rimuru's smile form are awe to see how cute he is. Rimuru leaps onto Ranga's back.

Red Ogre: So it's true, then.

Rimuru: *Pulls out his mask* As I said, this mask is a keepsake from a friend. You're welcome to look at it and see if it's the same one the person who attacked your village used.

Rimuru gives the mask to the red ogre as the ogre checks to see if it is the same one. After about 2 minutes, he confirmed that Rimuru was not the one who attacked their village. Gyomei and the Red Ogre bowed to Rimuru apologizing for attacking them.

Gyomei: I apologize on their behalf for attacking your party.

Red Ogre: We were too quick to judge and behaved rashly.

G/Red Ogre: Please accept our forgiveness.

Rimuru: Sure, it's all good.

We go to Deku who was hugged by Ochako after seeing him for a while now.

Ochako: *😊* It's good to see you again, Deku.

Deku: You too.

Kumoko: So, are going to introduce me to your friend?

Daku: Oh, right. Ochako Uraraka, this is Kumoko, she's also a reincarnation.

Ochako: Nice to meet you, Kumoko-chan.

Kumoko: You too. Deku told me all about you.

Ochako: *🤨* Hold on, why is she calling you Deku?

Deku: *Explan*

Ochako: Okay, that makes sense.

Rimuru: Well, we should probably talk somewhere else. Let's go back to our village. You can join us there.

Red Ogre: Wait. Are you sure?

Ochako: *😄* Of course.

Rimuru: We'd like to hear what happened to you.

Red Ogre: But we attacked you and wounded your companions and friends.

Deku: It's fine. We can let bygones be bygones.

Old Ogre: *To Kanao* I'm sorry for attacking you, young lady.

Kanao: It's okay.

Red Ogre: *To Kumoko* And I'm sorry for calling you a slut.

Kumoko: Don't worry, I'll get over it.

Rimuru: Besides, we're having a huge feast today. More people just means more fun.

We that, they head back to the village to celebrate the feast. Elsewhere in the Kingdom of Ruberios, Tanjiro, Nezuko, Giyu, Sabito, Makomo, Shinobu, Kanae, Rengoku and Tanjuro were packing up their stuff and heading out.

Tanjiro: Is everyone ready?

Everyone: Yap.

Tanjuro: This will be my first time traveling with my children.

Nezuko: *😄* This will be so much fun!

Rengoku: Then let's go!

Tanjiro: Off to the Forest of Jura.

They start their carriage and head off to the Forest Jura.
