This is where the WN go down hill. It becomes too generic that it's so hard to read but I finished it despite that because it's one of my rules when reading. Anyways I just hope they'd change it a bit.

You should read https://mangadex.org/thread/250545
I recommend using https://css-ig.net/pingo - check PNG, multithreading, convert to grayscale and remove transparency (uncheck everything else), set compression level to extreme, and click optimize. With those settings it's twice as fast as http://www.mediafire.com/file/hlr1xszqildnyqn/png_for_dummies.zip/file while optimizing by 2-4% better.

A LOT was changed between the wn and ln, new characters, entire new arcs/volumes, completely reworked scenes, a lot more fleshing out characters/ events, etc.
@pakyu1199: The LN is quite different from the WN.
For example, one of the major change between WN and LN is the power scale of Rimuru. In the WN he is TOO OP for anyone to fight against. This point have been changed in the LN.
This seems to have changed from what I used to read in the past. I don't recall Kazaram, for example. Or the whole dialogue about infiltrating the church.
the WN basically made everyone except rimiru and friends become background characters or measuring sticks. Including the biggest hitters like Milim and Guy no one except Rimiru and friends really gets to fight for real or if they do they just get beaten up for rimiru to jump in and save them.
Thankfully the Ln's much more reasonable with that and other characters actually have a chance to have a showing.
It would be better if yukki wasn't the big bad guy. Otherwise his reveal seems way to early and random. If you ask me they could have kept him in the shadows easily. Just let laplace talk to kazaream and at the end of the chapter they say they have to report their findings to the boss. Then you could show somebody reading manga so you know it's an otherworlder and keep his identity secret for a little longer.
Also it's true Rimuru was op in the web novel but if I remember correctly that was after he absorbed veldora and I don't know but I would be suprised if the event I'm mentioning wouldn't be happening
