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

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
planned: He never found a girlfriend, he got stuck in a dead-end
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...

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...

The Empire deploys a vast army over 900,000 soldiers strong to
invade the Forest of Jura. In response, Ramiris evacuates Tempest's
inhabitants into the Dungeon for safety. While Primal Demons
Testarossa and Ultima duke it out with the Empire on the front
lines, the rest of the imperial army attempts to invade Ramiris's
labyrinthine shelter. Little do they know, however, that the only
thing they'll find there is a devastating bloodbath courtesy of
Tempest's own mighty forces...
Threatened by Tempest's rapid expansion, the Eastern Empire finally
begins to strike back. According to Chloe, the time-traveling Hero,
there exists a timeline in which the Empire defeats Rimuru and
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...
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."

Despite Rimuru's absence, Tempest was as peaceful as always. Well,
as peaceful as a monster town called "Tempest" could get, anyway.
But that was only until they learned that a bunch of heavily armed
humans were coming their way. To make matters worse, the Beast
Kingdom of Eurazania has declared war on Milim, and Rimuru is
nowhere to be found...!
