After the whole fight with Rimuru and Yuki Kagurazaka (the master of Kazaream). Rimuru will make Laplace as one of his comrades, I still don't know if that includes Tear and Footman. I think Laplace did this things only because of Clayman's greed and that he is his friends, but Laplace is originally just mischievous and playful guy and was never meant to be really evil. And yes, Laplace is really strong than expected.
