Rimuru has emerged victorious in the war against the Eastern
Empire, but between the ultimate skill Michael taking over
Ludora’s body and the mystic lord Feldway lurking behind the
scenes, he still has a lot left on his plate. Meanwhile, the fight
at the labyrinth—conducted while Rimuru was busy with his own
climactic battle—revealed some serious flaws in the monster
nation’s defenses. Now that things are calmer, it’s time for
our favorite demon slime to address some major infrastructure
issues with his team…
After a fierce battle, Veldora has fallen into the enemy's
clutches, and Rimuru is furious. The order comes down to unleash a
massacre, and Benimaru and the other Tempest executives couldn't be
more thrilled. The fuse has been lit for the final battle between
Tempest and the Eastern Empire. But if he wants to save Veldora,
Rimuru will need to evolve even further. It's time to release the
power he's been holding back!
The day has finally come for the Tempest Founder's Festival to kick
off! From live concerts to incredible feats of monster engineering
(and most of all, the massive labyrinth), revelers are sure to have
their minds blown. And who should decide to participate in the
battle tournament than the hero himself, Lightspeed Masayuki?!
Rimuru and his team are headed for the Holy Empire of Lubelius to organize the concert he promised Luminus, its leader. But as preparations continue, a fiendish conspiracy involving both demon lords is being laid out behind the scenes. There may not be much time for music after all…especially with a third demon lord on the hunt for a certain otherworlder in Rimuru’s care!
The Tempest Founder's Festival was a roaring success, and Rimuru's
next goal is to join the infamous Council of the West. However, a
certain influential figure within the Council has no intention of
letting someone as powerful as Rimuru have a seat at the table, and
they will stop at nothing to quietly snuff him out before he makes
any moves!
Having easily thwarted the Eastern Empire's invasion, Rimuru wishes
to end the conflict once and for all and therefore heads for the
imperial capital to take out the source. Meanwhile, Yuuki has
worked his way up inside the Empire with the intention to stage a
coup d'etat and usurp the throne. Rimuru, however, comes to find
that the Empire's true power is on a whole other level from what
he's seen so far...
As players of Monster Hunter and Dungeons & Dragons know, the
slime is not exactly the king of the fantasy monsters. So when a
37-year-old Tokyo salaryman dies and wakes up in a world of elves
and magic, he's a little disappointed to find he's become a blind,
boneless slime monster. Mikami's middle age hasn't gone as he

job, and he was abruptly stabbed to death in the street at 37. So
when he wakes up in a new world straight out of a fantasy RPG, he's
disappointed but not exactly surprised to find that he's facing
down a dragon, not as a knight or a wizard but as a blind slime
demon. But there are chances for even a slime to become a hero...
After Ramiris's match-fixing scheme and leaking of Framea's photos
to the Shion and Shuna fan club, he's in big trouble with Rimuru.

dropping lower by the minute!
Threatened by Tempest's rapid expansion, the Eastern Empire finally
begins to strike back. According to Chloe, the time-traveling Hero,

Tempest subsequently collapses. While Rimuru's doom isn't set in
stone, his victory isn't a foregone conclusion either. And to make
matters worse, an Empire spy seems to have infiltrated Tempest...
It's festival time in Tempest, and this exuberant ectoplasm knows
how to throw a party! After reconciling with Hinata and securing

from his many friends and allies!

How organisms come to possess adaptive traits is a fundamental
question for evolutionary biology. Although it is almost impossible
to demonstrate evolution in the laboratory, this issue can be
approached by using an unusual organism, Dark-fly: "Drosophila
melanogaster" kept in complete darkness for 57 years through 1,400
generations, which corresponds to 28,000 years in terms of human
generations. Has Dark-fly adapted to an environment of total
darkness? If so, what is the molecular nature of the adaptation? In
"Evolution in the Dark," the remarkable findings from the Dark-fly
project performed at Kyoto University are presented. It was found
that Dark-fly did not have poor eyesight, but rather exhibited
higher phototaxis ability and displayed lengthened bristles on the
head that function as tactile receptors. Circadian rhythms were
weakened but still retained in Dark-fly. With recent progress in
genome science enabling researchers to perform whole genome
sequencing for Dark-fly, a large number of mutations were
identified including genes encoding a light receptor, olfactory
receptors, and enzymes involved in neural development. The Dark-fly
project is a simple but very long-term experiment. Combined with
advanced techniques in genetics and genomics, it is a valuable tool
for understanding the molecular nature of adaptive evolution."

Tomoko Fuse has been one of the world's premier origami artists for
more than 35 years. This beautifully photographed book examines the
three-dimensional geometric designs she is famous for. Fuse, often
referred to as "the queen of origami," discovered the art of
folding paper at just seven years old. She has come a long way
since then, having had her work highlighted in exhibitions around
the world, including Paris Origami (Carrousel du Louvre, 1998), On
Paper (Crafts Council London, 2002) and her solo show Yorokobi
(Bauhaus Dessau, 2004). In addition to teaching, folding and
writing, she also collaborated with designer Denis Guidone for
Milan Design Week 2018 and was a featured artist in Nova's episode
"The Origami Revolution" (February, 2017). An artistic anthology of
her most impressive work, Tomoko Fuse's Origami Art can serve
multiple purposes: as inspiration for an experienced origami
folder; as a truly impressive coffee table book for the
artistically-minded; or as a push for intermediate folders to try
their hand at modular origami models.
