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

Maybe you should read my postings properly before replying. I literally said that killing the king and the priest would have been okay. Why are you going to great lengths explaining to me why killing them was okay? I ALREADY THINK SO, TOO.

:/

You're hoping the humans (as the underdogs? DEX covered that one so I won't) get some kind of victory in the future? For what? Kicking a hornet's nest and getting stung?

You're worse than the king who thought they deserve reparations for a failed invasion.

You're obsessed with retribution over justice. As an American, a culture that normalized retribution over rehabilitation, even I find your preferences troubling.

No, your premise is wrong. You're implying that monsters are the same as humans, which is not true. Before Rimuru appeared, goblins were wild savages. Orcs destroyed whole landscapes eating everything. Even the ogres (or whatever Hina and co are) used to be more mindless, aggressive monsters.

Humans in this world only knew monsters as dangerous, wild beasts and that justifies killing monsters. Racism in our real world was a big issue DESPITE white and black people being equally intelligent. In this world, humans were intelligent, monsters were not, or when they had a bit of intelligence, they were still overtly aggressive.

You're so insanely wrong, I almost have to believe you're trolling.

Orcs ravaged the region because Clayman's pawn turned them into the Orc Disaster, tried to control them, got eaten, and Clayman was intending to finish them off. Presumably for the same reasons Rimuru just slaughtered 20k people, sprouting a demon seed.

Humans didn't enter the forest because of the dragon sealed there.

Monsters were always intelligent, they just weren't organized. The dryads are smart. The goblins are weak, not stupid. The ogres (Benimaru, Shuuna, Shion, etc.) had their own culture and village until the orcs swept through. Hakuoro is known across the land as a sword fighter. He's trained people before Rimuru came into play (other characters recognize him). The orcs had their own culture before climate change or whatever drove them to starvation. The lizardfolk had their own tiny kingdom. Milim is a monster. Yuzurania is a nation of monster-hybrids. Etc.
