Two things worth mentioning, we have otherworlders now that seem to be looking for freedom. Will Rimuru try to save them (and befriend them as a result)? If he tries to save them, will there be irreconcilable differences with the kingdom itself? Or will they be able to negotiate after all after they see how good an ally Rimuru can be...

But we also have the x factor of that church being involved as well.

For the moment, the kingdom is is looking for even more troops to commit than the 17,000 he already said it had to invade. We'll see how it goes.
