As we saw in That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime (Tensura ) Season 4, Episode 3, the Lord Rostia and Yuuki Kagurazaka were conversing. At that moment, Mariabell Rosso arrived and asked Yuuki, "Can you defeat Rimuru?
Yuuki replied: Hinata couldn't accomplish that task, so I believe I would struggle against Rimuru as well.
Mariabell Rosso then stated: The real problem isn't Rimuru Tempest it is the Storm Dragon, Veldora Tempest. Attacking Rimuru while Veldora is present would be an act of utter foolishness. Tempest is growing larger and stronger than us we must take action before that happens.
She noted that the Demon Lord Rimuru desires to coexist peacefully with humans, but insisted that they must find a safe method to bring him under their control.

How Strong Is Mariabell Rosso's Greed Skill? | Full Breakdown
In That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime (Tensura ) anime consider this Mariabell Rosso's Greed is a Unique Skill specifically, a Deadly Sin-type Unique Skill, one of the rarest and most potent categories of ability in the TenSura world. Through this skill, Mariabell can bring almost anyone under her control. By seeing control of a person's desires, she effectively brings the individual themselves under her command.
The stronger a person's desires, the stronger Mariabell Rosso's control over them becomes. However, Mariabell Rosso cannot control individuals who possess exceptionally big ambitions.

Why Mariabell Rosso Cannot Control Rimuru Tempest - The Ambition Problem
Actually if u guys do not know then read carefully Rimuru Tempest, has big ambition too. He is striving to create a world where humans and monsters can coexist in harmony. This ambition far surpasses Mariabell's own.
Consequently, Mariabell is unable to bring Rimuru under her control not because she hasn't tried, but because the fundamental mechanics of her own skill make it structurally impossible.
What Would Actually Happen If Mariabell Rosso Used Greed on Rimuru Tempest?
So let us assume for a moment that Mariabell Rosso were to attempt to control Rimuru what would happen?
First and foremost, the moment Mariabell Rosso attempted to utilize her Greed skill on Rimuru, his Ultimate Skill Raphael later ciel would activate. By virtue of possessing this Ultimate Skill, Rimuru is automatically rendered immune to mental attacks and any form of lower-tier manipulation.

| Rimuru Tempest His Ultimate Skill Raphael |
Thanks to the offensive capabilities of Raphael the Lord of Wisdom Raphel is constantly able to analyze and neutralize incoming attacks, Raphael possesses the power to effectively neutralize it consequently, even if Mariabell Rosso were to desire it, she could never hope to bring Rimuru Tempest under her control.
Why this battle for Mariabell is completely unwinnable aginst Rimuru Tempest
Actually in That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime (Tensura ) Rimuru Tempest Demon Lord possesses a multitude of Ultimate Skills such as , Raphael (Lord of Wisdom), Beelzebuth (Lord of Gluttony), Uriel (Lord of Vows), and Veldora (Lord of Storms) along with dozens of Unique, Extra, and Common Skills, including I, Spatial Movement, and Law Manipulation, Infinite Regeneration, Universal Detect, Lords Ambition, Enhanced Replication, Universal Thread. So with these four big Ultimate Skills I don't think Mariabell Rosso will have a chance to control Rimuru Tempest even slightly.
| Ability Category | Rimuru Tempest | Mariabell Rosso |
| Ultimate Skills | Beelzebuth, Raphael, Ueiel | None |
| Unique Skills | Multiple | Greed Only |
| Metnal Attacks Immunity | ✅ Raphael auto-activates | ❌ None |
Given this vast armory, even a True Demon Lord would be hard-pressed to stand on equal footing with Rimuru. Since Mariabell Rosso possesses only a single Unique Skill, the very notion of her defeating Rimuru Tempest let alone controlling him is simply out of the question.
Final Verdict - Can Mariabell Rosso Control Rimuru Tempest ?
The answer that Mariabell herself refuses to accept is this: No. Not now. Not ever.
Her Grred skill fails against Rimuru Tempest on two different levels simultaneously his desire is greater than his own, and his Ultimate Skill, Raphael, would nullify the attempt before it even begins. Attacking Rimuru Tempest while Veldora is standing next to him would be suicidal. And trying to control his mind would achieve nothing.
Mariabell Rosso is powerful. But Rimuru Tempest is operating on a completely different tier of existence and the gap between them is completely is another level.
