In the fifth episode of the fantasy anime series, By the Grace of the Gods, titled "The Lady's Training Session, with the Slimes," viewers are treated to a delightful and heartwarming episode where Ryoma continues to adjust to his new life in this magical world.
As Ryoma continues to settle into his new home, he spends most of his time researching and experimenting with the numerous types of slimes that he has come into contact with. In this episode, however, he is visited by the widow of a former member of his previous world, who seeks his help in training her daughter in basic magical abilities.
Ryoma agrees to help the lady, who seems to have her reservations about him, and is introduced to her daughter, Eliaria. After some introductions, Ryoma soon discovers that Eliaria is having trouble controlling her magic and is afraid of using it, as she fears that she might hurt someone with it. Ryoma suggests that they use some slimes as targets for Eliaria's magic, and the episode takes off from there.
