Meeting the Goblins

Meeting the Goblins (ゴブリンたちとの出会い) is the second episode of the That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime anime.

Synopsis
Mikami the Slime and Veldora the Storm Dragon became friends and have given names to each other. Veldora gifts the name of Rimuru to the slime, and Rimuru named each other's last name Tempest. In an attempt to undo the seal on Veldora, Rimuru devours him using his Predator skill. However, this created a tremor around the area of the Forest of Jura. By being devoured into Rimuru, the threat of Veldora has disappeared, so there is a threat that large nations will attack smaller countries through the Jura Forest. Unaware of his actions, Rimuru passes through the cave and has an encounter with the Goblins.

Plot
Mikami and Veldora discuss the idea of leaving the cave, while the slime is free to go any time he wants Veldora remains trapped. Towards that end Mikami wants to use Predator to study the barrier and find a way of dismantling it using Great Sage. At minimum Mikami will contain Veldora's dwindling magic reserves and ensure that he doesn't fade away.

Veldora agrees to the plan but before they continue he gives the slime the name Rimuru and asks the slime for a last name for both of them: Tempest. Once the newly christened Rimuru Tempest eats the dragon he learns, to his disappointment, that he can no longer communicate with him. At the same time various monsters and governments sense the dragon's disappearance and begins moving to investigate and take advantage.

Instead Rimuru eventually finds the way out of Veldora's cave thanks to A trio of adventurers sent to investigate Veldora's prison. Over the next month Rimuru hunts and eats a variety of different monsters and steals their abilities, learns how to swim and fire a water blade and continues to strip the cave of resources. Finally Rimuru finds his way out of the cave and eventually comes into contact with a group of Goblins.

The Goblins explain that after the disappearance of their guardian deity, Veldora, various monsters have started moving into the forest trying to stake their claim, among them a group of Fanged Wolfs have been attacking them. The goblins, weak in body and armed with poor equipment, stand no chance against the wolfs that both out number and out gun them and so witnessing the great power of Rimuru Tempest's aura request his help.

Rimuru, thinking briefly on his past life and his inability to say no, agrees to help the goblins fend off the wolfs.
