Plot
The travelers have arrived at Gimul, and it's Ryoma's first time visiting a town. The Jamil Household have traveled to Gimul is to assess the mines, seeing that they haven't been yielding as much as they used to.

Ryoma and Reinhart's family go to a church to collect a status board for the former. During the baptism - a way to get a status board - Ryoma's conscience gets transported to the deities' realm. They are happy to see the young boy. Ryoma learns that a human who crossed over to the magical world in the past was an ancestor of the Jamil family. Her name was Shiho Jamil. Eliaria also has another ancestor from Earth from her mother's side who she inherited her strong magic from. But not only that, but they also tell them that other Gods have noticed the young man's talents, the God of War, the God of Magic, and the God of Craft and Artisans.

After Ryoma receives his status board, Rheinbach Jamil offers the young boy a piece of advice, to keep his strength hidden and join a guild to avoid negative attention. Eliaria is impressed by Ryoma's magic capacity to the point she asks the young boy to teach her a few things.

After leaving the church, they make their way to the Tamer's Guild. Lady Eliaria and Ryoma register as tamers. However, there's a new trend inside the Guild, letting the strength of the monster determine the master's overall rank of the master. Since Ryoma is a slime master, and slimes are at the bottom of the food chain, Ryoma is ranked very low.

Reinbach comes with a solution to join the Adventurer Guild, that they can hopefully can raise Ryoma's rank. The instructor and Guild master, Worgan, instructs Ryoma what he has to do to join the Guild. Worgan and the Jamil Household are impressed by the young boy's skills. As a result, Ryoma passed the test and is now a member of the Adventurers Guild as rank G (lowest rank).

Ryoma heads out to find a job. The young lad finds an assignment for cleaning a house. The assignor is a female cat beastman called Miya, who desperately needs someone to clean her house.

Trivia

 * A status board displays a person's stats and also serves as a form of ID

 * Gain is in the creator of the slimes.
 * In the manga, Ryoma follows the "early to bed, early to rise; makes a man healthy and wise" motto, which is apparently sagely.
