That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime, Vol. 17 (light novel)  (English, Paperback, Fuse Kevin)

This volume marks the first short-story collection in the Slime series, taking a deep dive into the epic tale's fantasy world-and what its characters get up to when Rimuru isn't bossing them around! Gard Mjoellmile, the most powerful human member of Tempest's government, is up to some less-than-proper dealings in the Western Nations; Velgrynd gets involved with a familiar-looking planet as she traces the trail of her lover; Caligulio starts facing up to his past as he strives to rebuild the Empire; and Raine, Primal Demon and servant of the demon lord Guy Crimson, has a complaint or two about her toxic work environment. All that plus an extra tale you won't want to miss in this stellar collection!
