This story takes place before Rimuru's reincarnation. Shizu, also known as the Conqueror of Flames, responds to an urgent request calling her to the Kingdom of Filtwood. When she reaches the castle, many adventurers are already there. What request could have demanded such a huge gathering? It turns out a demon has been revived, and the adventurers have been called to subjugate it. It is said that more than ten of the most skilled adventurers have already been killed by this demon. But there is more to this request than meets the eye...
We have no intention whatsoever 
of neglecting you adventurers.
لا ننوي إعاقتكم أنتم المُغامرين على الإطلاق
Auch wir wollen die Taten von
euch Helden nicht geringschätzen.
No teníamos intención
de amenazar a los aventureros.
No teníamos intención
de amenazar a los aventureros.
Nous n’avions nulle intention
Non abbiamo mai avuto la benché minima
intenzione di mancare di rispetto a voi avventurieri.
Não temos intenção de ignorar
vocês, aventureiros.
Прошу, поймите, мы и не собирались
унижать вас, авантюристов!
