Why Diablo Lives to Serve His Master Rimuru
As a hardcore Tensura fan, I‘m constantly exploring the dynamics between Rimuru Tempest and his right-hand man, Diablo the Demon Duke. Their relationship fascinates me – Diablo‘s fanatical devotion positioning him as Rimuru‘s most zealous subordinate. But why does Diablo so reverently follow our beloved slime?
In short: Diablo views Rimuru as his foretold master who will unlock the secrets of the world, evolving Diablo into a stronger being in the process.
Let‘s explore the keys underpinning this union between demon and slime:
Diablo‘s Belief in Rimuru‘s Destiny
When initially summoned, Diablo instantly pegged Rimuru as connected to the power of his mask, destined to bring revolution. Recalling his previous master Leon Cromwell, Diablo recognized the same glint of potential and hunger for evolution.
Furthermore, while Leon sought evolution through conquest and bloodshed, Rimuru‘s compassionate nature resonated with Diablo‘s principles.
"Only with a truly just master could I advance towards the pinnacle of truth I seek!"
This firm belief in Rimuru‘s greatness forms the bedrock of Diablo‘s loyalty.
The Naming Fulfilled Diablo‘s Purpose
Upon naming Diablo and evolving him into a Demon Peer, Rimuru earned unconditional obedience. Diablo had longed for a fated encounter that would unleash his full capabilities. By nurturing Diablo‘s growth, Rimuru gave Diablo‘s existence meaning.
Now, fulfilling his master‘s ambitions gives Diablo‘s life purpose. He‘ll utilize all his power to further Rimuru‘s goals.
Rimuru‘s Continued Displays of Strength
Rimuru has validated Diablo‘s devotion by exhibiting power beyond his expectations. Conquering ferocious foes like the Orc Lord Geld, Rimuru proved his might. Tactically outmaneuvering demon lords like Clayman also showcased Rimuru‘s visionary leadership.
And Rimuru‘s ascension from Demon Lord to a being approaching True Dragon status utterly awed Diablo. His soaring growth reaffirms that dedicating himself to Rimuru has unlimited upside.
Could Diablo Ever Betray Rimuru?
Given his fanatical loyalty, Diablo betraying Rimuru seems unfathomable. After all, failing Rimuru fills Diablo with an unfamiliar dread. And disobeying his cherished benefactor would utterly violate his principles.
However, what if Rimuru himself changed? Should Rimuru forsake his compassion, the beliefs binding master and servant could unravel…
But even then, with Rimuru growing mightier by the day, challenging him could prove suicidal!
How Does Rimuru‘s Power Stack Up?
Light novel readers debated endlessly – could anyone defeat Rimuru? Well, after evolving into a pseudo-True Dragon, Rimuru stands clearly at the apex. Although challenges remain…
Milim matches Rimuru in raw strength as a fellow Demon Lord. Yuuki and his Harlequins present an intelligent threat. Hinata harbors a massive grudge. And what if Chronoa resets time? Still, defeating Rimuru likely requires an arcane plan rather than simple force.
And if Veldanava, Rimuru‘s creator whispered to return, emerges? Then all bets are off!
But for now, backed by devoted disciples like Diablo, Rimuru reigns supreme. Who could break that servant‘s loyalty? I doubt any force in this fantasy world!
