Rimuru's domain has expanded to include the entire Great Forest of Jura. Anticipating a flood of representatives from all races showing up to pay their respects, he decides to throw a festival to commemorate the opening of Tempest, using it as an opportunity to gain new citizens and present himself to the world. Meanwhile, in the Holy Empire of Lubelius, home base of the monster-hating cult of Luminism, Holy Knight Captain Hinata receives a message from Rimuru. But the message is a fabricated declaration of war sent by an unknown party. Upon learning that Hinata is heading for Tempest, Rimuru makes a decision...
