Majin of Flames

## Guide

**Majin of Flames** ｢炎の魔人, *honō no majin*｣ is the ninth chapter of the manga adaptation of *That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime*.

## Summary

Roasting some meat, Kaval's Party start to fight who will eat it all. Without noticing, Rimuru is touching the hot iron plate, but Shizu guesses they have a resistance skill and Rimuru confirms their possession of thermal fluctuation resistance.

Shizu explains that people from other worlds may obtain skills when they cross over if they strongly desire them. Rimuru recalls that when they were dying, their back felt hot and also cold from the blood loss. Rimuru guesses that Shizu can control fire as she used it to fight the ants, but Shizu comments that the fire is like a curse to her and her last memory of the other world is her town being engulfed in fire.

A student of hers, also from Japan, told her that its was the fire bombing of Tokyo. However, she didn't die, but was summoned by the demon lord Leon Cromwell. Even though he had no interest in her, the man still placed an elemental of fire in her, saving her life but also dooming it to be a life with many hardships.

Rimuru and Shizu go on a walk with Ranga. Shizu is surprised that the wolf and goblins are fluent in speech, but is more surprised that they are building a town.

Rimuru uses thought transmission to show her modern Japan and how people had been working hard to rebuild it after the war. Rimuru comments that they're aiming to make their town bigger and similar to Tokyo, inviting Shizu to visit it again in the future.

Rimuru asks her who summoned her in this world and she tells them about the demon lord Leon Cromwell. Shizu feels pain and realizes her time has come. She tosses Rimuru aside, her magic power starts to increase and she turns hostile. Seeing flames coming out, Kaval's party realize that Shizu and Shizue Izawa are the same person, the same legendary hero that wielded the power of Ifrit inside of her.

Shizu warns them to run as she can't suppress the power anymore. Rimuru then tells her that they will remove her curse and suppress Ifrit, engaging it in battle.

## Trivia

* Contrary to how it's translated usually, Majin ｢魔人｣ is translated as "Demon" in the official translations title of this chapter, however, based on how the term gets translated in later chapters, the title should actually be "Majin of Flames" instead. The reason why the use is incorrect here might be because the decision for how the term is to be translated had not been made yet at the time the English version of Manga Volume 2 had been released.
