Well now, unless my memory failed me, this volume contains the most material not in the anime - specifically the part where Rimuru was traveling with Eren's group and until he reaches his destination. Or maybe I'm just misremembering? Not sure, but I found the journey itself to be funnier than I remembered from the anime.
Anyway, yes, Rimuru is on a trip - essentially trying to tie up a loose end with him having made a promise to Shizu to take care of her protégés/students. From the anime, I didn't particularly like this arc, as I just found Rimuru's teacher role to be somewhat underwhelming.
What's welcome in the volume is more worldbuilding outside the Jura forest - specifically, human kingdoms. A bit of conspiracy, diplomacy and trade gets thrown in as well, to remind us that Rimuru is still very much a person of interest.
