That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime: Tensei shitara Slime datta Ken

They should've dropped off the elven spy instead

Do we know for sure the other guy ISN'T a spy though?

As for Milim, I took it this way. They're not relieving tension. Rimuru is using brainpower to beat her. Everyone knows who she is. She is a power feared across the world. She's also not someone you could take down by force.

Rimuru is from another world, making things with recreated technology/culture from another world. How do you beat something so powerful it can do pretty much whatever it wants, whenever it wants, and no one will stop it if it sets its sights on something?

Bribe it with something it has never had before, and has no idea how to create. It's still a gamble. Milim could have threatened them for more. She's simple-minded, but not stupid. Rimuru lured Milim into mutual cooperation.

You're saying nobody thought to eat honey in this world before Rimuru showed up?

Let's be real here, this was a gag solution, not some intricate strategy.

If outsiders knew more of Rimuru's existence, they might as well think he's one of the demon lords, as a matter of fact, because he's a ruler of monsters.

Kinda curious as to why he's not one already considering Geld was a Demon Lord, and he ate Geld.

I wonder if Rimuru will get a power upgrade and if so, how. She's t least 10 times stronger, he said. That's too much to overcome with mere strategy.

I assume he'll get in a fight with a less-powerful, but more hostile, Demon Lord, and end up eating him. Possibly more than one. And each one he consumes will bring him closer to her power level.

Let's be real: the author needed a way to lewd Gabiru's sister, that's all.
