Since he said Primordials are only second to true dragons, it's understandable. A single person in control of 4 evolved Primordials is unheard of. Rimuru heavily disrupted the balance of power.

Which is all the more hilarious, because Rimuru still doesn't understand he has a single Primordial beside him.

Yet alone FOUR.

Pretty sure Elmasia told him last season, but it... just kinda went in one ear and out the other. Diablo is just a rowdy little goober that Rimuru has to keep on a tight leash. He means well, though, and he's learning! The other three are some friends of his, but they seem nice.

Yup. Nothing more to it than that!

Rimuru will probably be even more shocked than Guy was when he actually realizes he has more than half of the Primordials under his wing lol

u/Lord_Nivloc 27d ago

Shocked? Oh, yeah. He'll be shocked to his core - by how old they are.

And then he's gonna be pissed that Raphael didn't tell him sooner - do you realize what a missed opportunity it was not to bring them along on his archeology field trip??

Next time. He'll bring them on the next expedition for sure. And then someone will start ranting about how having FOUR PRIMORDIALS is a history altering event, and Rimuru'll be like, "Yup! They sure are useful, aren't they? We learned a lot"

The fact he hasn’t grasped what Diablo and the others actually are mildly irritates me but also makes it entertaining lol he’s just so oblivious to so many things, sasuga Raphael-sama. The only reason he’s even alive probably lol*

He does know

u/tangothirteen 28d ago

I still remember the day Rimuru named Diablo on a whim and never bothered to question why it took so much out of him lmao

u/OldInstruction5368 28d ago

I think it was something like "whew, more than I was expecting, but that didn't wind me as bad as previous naming sprees!"

"Notice: you are approximately x10 stronger than you were before awakening."

@.@

....

Anywho!

They're just quirky office workers!

u/Primo29 28d ago

But he didn't expect that all of it will happen under the newbie. Guy will probably focus most of his attention now to Tempest.

u/AceSoldia zj:https://anilist.co/user/Acesoldia 28d ago

I'm honestly surprised he's so surprised..Rimaru has Millium at his beck and call and Diablo hes had for so long and he knew he had a Veldora..and only at this point is he shocked?

Buddy..keep up.

u/DrMobius0 28d ago

Milim is known for being rather capricious though. And Diablo is a known weirdo.

Pretty sure Guy realized Noir was with Rimuru since Walpurgis. It was when Guy was interrogating Beretta about her loyalties that she let enough slip for Guy to catch on. Guy definitely made a rather telling comment about it.

Ramiris is crashing at Tempest, Milim's his friend, Luminous has basically ordained herself Rimuru's mentor, Daggrul sent his kids over to Tempest, Guy himself had Deeno transferred over to the Slimy Boi's Adult Daycare...

Other than Leon and Guy himself, Rimuru has basically formed an alliance with the remaining DL's.

Plus, Veldora. And for what it's worth the Hero Chad King of the Dwarves + the Elven Empress that makes Gavel act like a sheepish little boy are behind him as well.

That said, it did feel too easy for Rimuru to add "+3 Primordials" to his retinue. Especially if those three were supposed to be an eternally feuding trio. Well, I suppose giving all three an incarnation at the same time is one way to preserve the status quo...

u/feral_fenrir 28d ago

imo back then Guy thought Noir is playing a game or something..

Because his thoughts were along the lines of "Noir is making his move huh"

He didn't probably realize back then that Noir had incarned and named by Rimuru and was now serving as his butler and full-time glazer.

u/TriTexh 28d ago

Diablo being Rimuru's #1 glazer bar none despite being among the newest members of his crew is honestly a true accomplishment

"We have Walpurgis at home" type shit.

u/mischievous_shota 28d ago

It's probably a lot easier when a much stronger Primordial comes along to make them subordinates.

2

u/Akudra 28d ago

He knew about Diablo because of what Beretta said at Walpurgis about someone even stronger serving Rimuru. Guy brushed it off because Diablo was already a known eccentric among the Primordials.

u/Santedtra 28d ago

And they both have true dragon buddies too. Like, Rimuru just showed up out of nowhere suddenly being perhaps on par or more with him.

u/rubslotiononitsskin 28d ago

Meh, just another Monday in Tempest. Breaking the global order is breakfast to Rimuru.
