Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken Ibun: Makoku Gurashi no Trinity - Vol. 3 Ch. 18 - The Calamity's Aftermath

Its nice to see a different perspective of what happened during this event.
They should have atleast add this to a side story in the main manga.
To show the dept of emotions from all of them.
 
Even the side story got dark as hell.
It's also moving much faster than the main story and has a fresh perspective on this disaster. It still didn't show how Shion died but it is interesting seeing the town's side of it.
 
God, this part hurt just as much as in the main story. But it's necessary for Rimuru to ascend to the throne that he was meant to take
 
Oh god I'm actually glad Strolling Through the Demon Country started after this.

Still hurts to read this part.
 
Like...Ok, damn, in the main novel this hit hard too, even through the normal well we expect a stomp power fantasy kinda dealie. Like it's not a nothing thing that happened, because of Rimuru's orders people died where they could have protected themselves against an actively hostile force. They were certainly strong enough for it at the time I think. But it still hurt.

But man, looking at it from the point of view of folks on the ground ABSOLUTELY hit's different. We get that Rimuru's great, we see how they love him, and...they fail. People die, which hurts worse cause in these three's case, they're supposed to be protecting them or were trying at least, and not only did they fail, they failed while breaking the orders of the person they admire and respect.

Shit, you broke the rules to try and do the right thing and you STILL failed? That's bitter as shit. And it hits harder because up til now this has been a very chill manga so honestly credit where it's due.
