The law of causality though is being questioned as of recently, with further research into the multiverse. The reason it is being questioned is because of the possiblity of non-negative energy actually existing or not. In other words, does anti-matter exist? In this series, it does, so the laws of causality do not apply because Rimuru has the ability to reject "existance" itself, breaking any rule of physics because he effectively controls the "positive" and the "negative", the "black" and the "white", the "yin" and the "yang".

Physics alone is not capable of this now, but that at the same time does not mean its not possible. Because quantum particles bounce in and out of space-time, the implication is that at a quantum level, the universe is vibrating at speeds that you can shift through dimensions, going both forward and backwards in time and into different multiverses.

In other words, atoms are creating parallel universes and our actions can influence events  to create new events.

In other words, let's say I wanted to stop a terrorist bombing. I shift through space-time to where the event happened, stop the bombing, and return to exactly the space-time I was when I left. Nothing changes. Instead, the change in events causes a "splinter" in space-time creating a parallel world. Causing a timeline where the event both happened and a timeline where it didn't.

In short, its just like DBZ. Trunks effects meaningful change on the past, but it does nothing to change his future.

In this way, the future never changes the past, it just forks the roads it travels. This is why Christiaan Huygens denotes the difference between dialated time and stationary time in his equation for time. Because the time is not a straight line, it bends and flexes, based on how gravity, space, and velocity/speed of light are managed.

For us, time travel would come down to perfectly manipulating gravity. But Rimuru bypasses this by controlling the non-negative energy that Stephen Hawking stated is the reason it is impossible for us.

So, the rules of time travel are the same, but are ability to manipulate and use those rules are limited by our technology. While Rimuru has all-powerful magic.
