Summary
Rimuru decides to name the ogres. The ogre princess tries to explain there is risk in that, but Rimuru knows about it and explains its fine.

He wakes up later with the female ogres next to him, but can't recognize them. The ogre leader approaches him and explains that all six ogre had evolved into Kijin and formerly introduces himself as Benimaru. Rimuru recalls that he felt losing consciousness when naming them and is surprised that the ogre turned to Kijin, which are smaller in physic, but have more inner magic power. The princess introduces himself as Shuna, while the other female Kijin introduces herself as Shion. The elder ogre who became younger, Hakurou. The fifth Kijin, Souei, comments that its rare for six to evolve into Kijin and it usually happens to the strongest after many years. The last Kijin, looks quite similar to his ogre form and is named Kurobe.

Meanwhile, elsewhere the lizardman tribe head receives news that the orc tribe is preparing to attack them. What's more surprising is that the orc's work together and are around 200,000 in numbers. The lizardmen's chief suspects that a Orc Lord appeared who had managed to gather the orcs. The lizardmen's chief calls his son for a special mission, who prefers to be called Gabiru, the name he received from his benefactor, Gelmud.

Rimuru wants Hakurou to train him with the sword, but as he finds his training hard, he decides to take a break, while Hakurou continues to train the other goblins. Benimaru comments that an Orc Lord is a unique monster that is born each hundred years and is able to take the fear away from his comrades. Benimaru also explains a majin appeared in his village, wanting to name them, but they all refused and chased him away. Benimaru can't remember his name, but Souei who comes out of nowhere, tells him its Gelmud. Souei reports that a small group of lizardmen are coming, which is rare for them who make their home in the marshlands. They are also negotiating with the nearby goblin villages and will soon come to theirs. Shion arrives to inform them that lunch is ready and she helped preparing it. Hearing that, Souei runs away and Benimaru explains he will skip it.
