As he explores, he stumbles upon the cave's sole inhabitant: the terrifying, massive Storm Dragon Veldora. Veldora, who has been sealed in the cave for 300 years, is initially intimidating, but quickly reveals his true nature as a lonely and somewhat melodramatic "tsundere" dragon. The two form a quick friendship. Veldora names the slime "Rimuru," and in exchange for his friendship, Veldora grants him the name "Tempest". The episode concludes with Veldora, shocked that someone would want to be his friend, breaking down in tears, while Rimuru uses his "Predator" skill to store the dragon inside himself, hoping to eventually find a way to break the seal.

Veldora Tempest... I am fond of it. A name shared with a friend.
