Meeting the Goblins ｢ゴブリンたちとの出会い, goburin-tachi to no deai｣ is the second episode of the That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime anime.
Synopsis[]
The slime Satoru Mikami and the Storm Dragon Veldora decide to give each other names. Veldora gives the slime the name "Rimuru," and Rimuru comes up with a family name for both of them: "Tempest."
Rimuru uses their Predator skill to take Veldora in its 'stomach' and analyze the "Infinity Prison" in hopes of breaking it... but this action sends a shock through the nations surrounding the Jura Forest. With Veldora gone, there's a chance that the larger nations could become bold and invade the smaller provinces. With no knowledge of this, Rimuru leaves the cave and encounters a group of Goblins.[1]
Summary[]
Satoru and Veldora discuss the idea of leaving the cave, while the slime is free to go any time they want, Veldora remains trapped.
Towards that end, Satoru wants to use Predator to study the barrier and find a way of dismantling it using Great Sage. At a minimum, Satoru will contain Veldora's dwindling magic reserves and ensure that he doesn't fade away.
Rimuru being Named
Veldora agrees to the plan, but before they continue, he gives the slime the name Rimuru and asks the slime to come up with a last name for both of them: Tempest.
Once the newly christened Rimuru Tempest eats the dragon and learns, to their disappointment, that they can no longer communicate with him. At the same time, various monsters and governments sense the dragon's disappearance and begin moving to investigate and take advantage.
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, creating the Water Blade Skill and continuing to strip the cave of its resources. Finally, Rimuru finds their way out of the cave and eventually comes into contact with a group of Goblins.
Agreeing to help the 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 direwolves have been encroaching on their village. The goblins, weak in body and armed with poor equipment, stand no chance against the wolves that both outnumber and outgun them. And so, witnessing the great power of Rimuru Tempest's aura, ask for their help.
Rimuru, thinking briefly on their past life and inability to say no when pressured, agrees to help the goblins fend off the wolves.
