Re:Monster episode 7 recap

Re:Monster, episode 7 starts off with Gobrou swiftly disposing of yet another human army battalion through his attacks. Gobrou later absorbs all of the human bodies using his recently acquired slime abilities. The episode then cuts to Gobrou escorting the redhead and the recently captured human soldier to the elf village. The elves scorn the human companions, making them question their presence in the village.

But Gobrou soon reassures them by stating that the Elf king is genuinely a good person and doesn't mind their presence. The Elf king then discusses their next plan to end the Elf-human war. Gobrou and his companions depart from the elf village after the meeting. While returning to the goblin cave, one of the recently captured humans asks Gobrou to give her somehow the chance to fulfill her duty of curing the princess.

Gobrou, who had acquired the medicine to cure the princess, then clarifies how the already established religion of this world works on the blessings of different gods. He also explains how his being blessed by a god other than the major gods might spark a new conflict if he directly assists the humans. Gobrou reassures the recently captured human that he'll do something about their princess's condition.

Later in the episode, Gobrou discusses his plans to confront the human army faction and soon learns that the humans have sent one of their heroes into the battle. The hero proves to be a bit of a problem due to his power, which allows him to control hordes of dead bodies with the help of his insects.

The hero later incapacitates Gobrou using one of his gigantic centipedes, but Gobrou somehow survives and engages in battle once more. The episode ends with the insect hero fleeing from Gobrou while a different blood clone of Gobrou secretly provides a high-ranking human military officer with the medicine needed to cure the princess.
