In the beginning of Episode 55, “Holy and Demonic Clash,”Rimuru Tempest reflects on his initial encounter with Hinata and ponders the next move of the leader of the Western Holy Church. Meanwhile, Hinata and her followers are shown camping in the Jura Forest.

As a flashback reveals, her companions caught up to her and joined her on her journey. In the next instant, they arrive in Blumund, the neighboring kingdom of Jura Tempest. Hinata takes note of the kingdom’s flourishing state, thanks to the guidance of Rimuru Tempest.

Hinata also notices a ramen shop, which she assumes is directly influenced by the new Demon Lord. After savoring a delicious meal, they reach the Great Jura Forest and discover how the country promotes a harmonious coexistence between humans and monsters.

Soei informs Rimuru that Hinata Sakaguchi will be arriving in the nation later that evening. They strategize and Rimuru prepares to confront her. Meanwhile, the Seven Days Clergy approach Renard and plead for his assistance in defeating Rimuru Tempest.

The group deceives Renard by claiming that Hinata has been brainwashed by the slime’s spell and that the only way to free her is by eliminating him. Surprisingly, Renard falls for their deception and leads his troops towards the Jura Tempest, only to be ambushed by Shion’s Team Reborn.
