Reader’s Question:
I have a question about “That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime.” As of volume 22 of the light novel, the Velgrynd Sword hasn’t appeared yet. Do you think it will show up in the next volume? If it does, will it likely be used to defeat Ivaraj?
Discussing
the Velgrynd Sword in “That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime”
So, I was diving deep into the world of “That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime,” and I came across some interesting thoughts around the elusive Velgrynd Sword. You know how it goes; you finish one volume and immediately want to know what’s next, feeling that familiar itch for more adventure. This reader’s question about whether the Velgrynd Sword will finally show up in the next volume really got me thinking. I mean, we’re nearing the end of the series, right? It’s like waiting for the big reveal in a magic trick. You can’t help but feel that the author, Fuse, is saving it for a spectacular moment. The way the commenter pointed out that the next volume might be the last adds a sense of urgency. It’s like being at a comedy show where the headliner just hasn’t come on stage yet, and you’re left wondering if they’ll nail their set or bomb spectacularly! Now, the discussion about the potential use of the sword against Ivaraj is equally intriguing. Just imagining Rimuru wielding such a powerful weapon against a formidable foe makes me giddy! The idea that this sword could be a culmination of energy from multiple dragon species is mind-blowing. It’s like thinking of a superhero team-up, where each character brings their unique strengths to defeat the villain. I can almost visualize Rimuru preparing for battle, a scene filled with tension and anticipation, reminiscent of those classic stand-up moments where the punchline is just about to drop. The thought of whether the sword will be showcased in the Old Eurazania or during the battle against Ivaraj is another layer of excitement. It’s like waiting for a punchline that could land in unexpected ways! If it does show up, I hope it’s in a way that makes everyone gasp. I mean, can you imagine the collective “whoa” from fans when it finally appears? And while we’re throwing around ideas, I found it fascinating that the commenter brought up the notion of using the sword against not just Ivaraj but possibly other powerful foes like the surviving members of Twilight or a rampaging Velzard. It kind of expands the possibilities, doesn’t it? It’s like when you’re at a buffet and you realize there’s not just cake, but also pie, and you just want to try them all! I can relate to the anticipation of such moments. It reminds me of the excitement I feel when I’m at a comedy club, waiting for that one comedian whose style I adore. You know the feeling—everyone’s buzzing, the lights dim, and you’re just hoping they don’t bomb. You want them to succeed and make you laugh until your sides hurt. So, what are your thoughts? Do you think the Velgrynd Sword will make a grand entrance? And if it does, how do you see it playing out against Ivaraj? I’d love to hear your theories or your favorite moments from the series in the comments! Let’s keep this conversation going!
