Anubis and Rimuru Revision (TSSDK)

Two things that need to be revised.



Magic for Anubis


A lot of people think unlike Phobia or Sophia who are good at close-quarter combat, Anubis is the long range mage-type fighter skilled in casting magic attack from a distance. But it is the furthest from reality. She lives up to her name as the subordinate of Beast King and is most talented in close-quarter combat, a natural warrior.
~ Slime LN vol. 6​
It doesn't directly say that she can use magic here, but if people get that impression, that means that they should have seen her using magic at one point, else this wouldn't make any sense.

That means she should have Magic, and having magic in Slimeverse means having Non-Physical Interaction. To be honest any Magic-BorMaji like her probably should have Magic, but I am leaving it to only Anubis for this revision. Might have to check if I can data-mine the vol. 8.5 databook for this issue at some point.

Resistance to Possession for Rimuru and Shizue
Both Rimuru and Shizue got the Skill Shapeshifter/Deviant. The Skill exists in the context of Shizue being possessed by Ifrit, so logically its "Division"/"Seperate" aspect should cover the situation of being possessed as well and it already showed the feat of seperating parts of abstract "objects" like Skills, so it should fulfill the conditions of being able to seperate something intangable like someone's spirit.


Division: The ability to separate oneself and the being possessing you. (If the target who being separated lacks a physical form, they could disappear.)
~ WN​

Separate: Release the properties inherent to the target and make it into a separate object. (The original object may disappear if it has no physical form.)
~ LN​
Shizue is already possessed by Ifrit so that itself also makes it harder for someone else to possess her.

Rimuru also reverse-engineered Ifrit's Possession ability as shown by him having created his auto-battle mode that lets Great Sage possess him, so even without the Shapeshifter/Deviant Skill, Rimuru should have counter-measures prepared.
 
I agree as well. I can make the change for WN Rimuru.
