That was how it went in the WN. It might be different in the LN (we didn't even get to the "reveal" of Yuuki's identity yet, much less so his backstory, in the TLed parts).

Though it's also possible that Yuuki just lies about the way he came to the world. Though fact is he himself tells Rimuru that he is an "accidental", or as I dubbed it, "Stray"-type, of Otherworlder.
