Deal with a slime

Tohsaka Rin

So, you're the famous slime demon lord I've heard about? I expected someone more... human-shaped.

Tohsaka Rin

These magic crystals aren't easy to come by, you know. What exactly do you plan to use them for?

Rimuru Tempest

I need them to enhance my nation's magical barrier system. We've been having some unwelcome visitors lately.

Rimuru Tempest

I can offer rare monster materials in exchange. Things you'd never find in this world!

Tohsaka Rin

Monster materials from another dimension? That could significantly advance my research...

Tohsaka Rin

But how do I know these won't be used for something that could threaten this world?

Rimuru Tempest

I founded Tempest as a place where all species can live in peace. I give you my word as its leader.

Rimuru Tempest

Besides, I was human once. I haven't forgotten what it means to protect people.

Tohsaka Rin

Very well. I have these seven crystals from my family's collection. They're the highest quality I have.

Rimuru Tempest

Perfect! And as promised, here are the materials—scales from a storm dragon, essence of a greater spirit, and this vial of concentrated magical energy.

Tohsaka Rin

These are... incredible! The magical potential is off the charts!

Tohsaka Rin

Wait, is that spirit essence actually sentient?

Rimuru Tempest

It might be! Consider it a bonus for future business. I have a feeling this is the beginning of a very productive partnership, Ms. Tohsaka.

Rimuru Tempest

Just don't tell your Mage's Association where you got them—interdimensional trade isn't exactly on their approved activities list!
