Plot[]
A crowd of tense hobgoblins have gathered around Rimuru who is taste testing meat skewers that have been prepared for them.
After careful consideration, Rimuru cheerfully declares the meat "Good!" and is quite happy to have a sense of taste again. While the various Hobgoblins, dwarves and ogres are enjoying themselves, the ogres' young master has sat down with Rigurd, Rimuru, and Kaijin as he explains what happened.
Several days ago an army of fully armed and armored Orcs attacked the Ogre's village without provocation or warning. Though the three hundred Ogres living in that village were quite strong, the sheer number of the enemy soldiers attacking them overwhelmed them. The Ogres present being all that's left of their village. One of the last things that the Young Master saw before fleeing with as many people as he could was a majin wearing a mask standing over his father's burning corpse.
Since Rimuru's mask looks similar they concluded that they must have been working together, hence their misunderstanding. The most sensible conclusion is that the Orcs have been given new power by a Demon Lord, but why, they couldnt figure out. Rimuru takes the liberty of noting that the Ogres have settled into the village rather nicely, which leads them to wonder what the Ogres plan on doing now.
Naturally, the Young Master's current ambition is to find the leader of the Orcs and kill him along with as many of his subordinates as possible. Realizing that the Young master doesn't have a plan at all, Rimuru instead proposes that they all become their subordinates in the mutual interest of fending off the army of Orcs that are wandering around the forest destroying everything in sight.
It is something that the Ogres needed to consider carefully, so the Young Master went out to think. The next morning the Ogres find their resolve and agree to become Rimuru's subordinates, at least until they can hunt down and defeat the Orcs' leader. As is customary with subordinates, Rimuru names each one of the Ogres.
The Young master was now Benimaru, his younger sister Shuna, the female Ogre Shion, the elderly Ogre Hakurou, the other male Souei and finally, the Hammer wielding Ogre was dubbed Kurobe. Once the process was done, however, Rimuru passes out from lack of magic power again, only waking up days later to learn that the Ogres evolved into Kijin and have since been keeping themselves busy inside of the village.
Hakurou has taken to bullying groups of Hobgoblins and calls it training them, Kurobe has inserted himself into Kaijin's blacksmith team while Shuna and Shion have taken turns looking after Rimuru's unconscious body. The reason why naming six Ogres took up so much of Rimuru's magic is because naming stronger individuals takes up vastly more magical power than weak ones like Goblins.
Benimaru and Rimuru begin discussing strategy in dealing with their enemy, after having time to think about it, Benimaru wonders if the orcs are connected to a majin known as Gelmud, who once visited their village offering to name the Ogres claiming to be a lieutenant in the Demon Lord's army. Rimuru recognizes the name Gelmud as the one who also named Rigur I and wonders if it's a coincidence.
In the meantime, the Orc Army is making its way to the Lizardman Village near Lake Siss. After determining the enemy outnumbers them two to one, and that they've already crushed the stronger Ogres, the Lizardman Chieftain concludes that the enemy army is being led by a legendary monster known as a Orc Lord who is said to devour the fear and hesitation of his subordinates, making him a natural leader.
Thus, the Chieftain calls his son, Gabiru, and assigns him the task of forming an alliance with the Goblins in the interest of boosting their numbers. Unfortunately, while traveling to the Goblin Village on the backs of their Hoverlizards, Gabiru's subordinates boost the already over confident Gabiru by commenting that with the name given to him by a Demon Lord's Lieutenant, Gelmud, it's only fitting that he use this crisis as an opportunity to succeed his father as chieftain.
