Felt abit bad for Clayman. Despite the clown dude getting sad for him, I feel like they are all manipulated by the demon lord that they serve and the black hair guy. The black hair guy came out like a plot twist though, he is 100% SUS.
Spoiler, after the fall of the Harlequin Aliance, specially the dead of Yuuki and Laplace. Rimuru, felt regret for killing Clayman. Althou he cannot resurrect Clayman but there still a small portion or residue of clayman in rimuru's stomach which he later transfer & fuse to Tear. Becoz Tear was heavily injured after Jahil tried to kill hear.. Footman was actually Jahil.. The true villain and happens to be an older brother of demon lord Valentine..
