A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

When did you move and what do you leave to me?

Such a question is in the back of the brain, but in an instant, Reurus opens his mouth without losing sight of the slime.

"... can you do it?

It wasn't a word to stop Neddy, it was a confirmation question.

I didn't have a long relationship with Neddy, but I felt a strong determination in his voice and intuited that he was unlikely to hear anything.

The magic that Neddy feels is as scarce as ever. Even though he was fighting the Slime, the lack of awareness of the Reus during the battle was also due to its low magic.

Still, given the current situation, Neddy's help is so much needed from his throat.

I don't think I can use the magic to destroy the "nucleus", but Neddy's magic can be used to "stop” the slime that mimics the appearance of Reurus and shows the movement stained with molluscs.

--Of course, I wouldn't let Neddy use his magic if he was in danger.

"Originally I should have done it. Besides, we have to stop it here."

It was a light, yet resolute word. Reurus was lost for a few seconds while controlling the slime and sighed deeply.

"... please, don't be rude. 'Cause Neddy has a future.

As residents of the abandoned city of Laval, Neddy, who can use water magic and ice magic, is the perfect solution to the water shortage. I want you to come with me, even if it's true.

As a Reurus, I owe you my life. I can stop Neddy from doing what he wants without being an adventurer.

"Yeah... I'll fight for the future."

Reus decided to fly the white flag in the words.

So did Slime, but what kind of mood changes have you had in this short time? It's not about Reurus guessing, it's not about Neddy asking, it's about nothing to listen to.

"Can you stop the slime for a little while?

Leave it to me.

Reurus laughed ferociously, filling up the feeling of defeat that had been in the corner of his mind.

Reurus, Gilba, and two slimes.

In terms of numbers, they enter a one-on-one battle with no collaboration, even though they are two to two.

Reurus and Gilba, behind Neddy's back, can't just let slime through.

As a result, there was no passive method of warfare, such as consolidating the defense and intercepting the slime.

"Gahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Reurus shouted, roaring like an animal.

Like a lie, the slime mimics the appearance of Reurus. After all, if Neddy kills him before he shoots magic, he will attack him with lethal air from his whole body.

There is blood flowing from the forehead where the skin was resolved by exposure to slime bodily fluids. There is also blood flowing from the edge of the mouth due to the impact of the previous beating, but the reuse is fine. The dragon slashes into the slime with a glaring glance and a fierce look on his face.

I'm not so worried about the lack of magic to turn to "caloric release". Believing that Neddy's magic would be in time before the magic ran out, he burst out as if he had forgotten the word limit.

The slime slightly delayed its reaction to the reels that stripped out its teeth and hit it. A large sword swinging down from the front grabs the shoulder and bends the body into a "kuno-shape” without being cut.

Even the "Dragon Slash", which tears apart the skin of the Fire Dragon, is tough and sturdy, but the body with rubber-like flexibility is also a weakness. The slime, which mimicked not only the appearance of the revus but even the movement, bent its body with a crushing impact and was unable to disengage at the judgment of aggression.

Reurus forcibly lowers the slime's head and drops the blade by the neck. I didn't think I'd die if I dropped my neck, but I didn't think I could resist if I just had a head with a "nucleus" in it.

But compared to the torso, I can't even cut a fine neck. With the blade of the big sword that was swinging down with all its strength, its neck was stretched, and the momentum was also struck to the ground, but it could not fly.

A slime that bounces like a rubber bow when hit by the ground. But you can't keep silent and continue to be attacked.

Even more awkward than a technologically awkward revulsion, he waved a clear sword in a chaotic trajectory without the need for a blade. It was meant to be beaten rather than slashed because it was equal to no sharpness.

In response, Reurus meets with the "Dragon Slasher", which he waved with his left hand. Then the big sword of the slime bent again, aiming at the face of Reurus - and caught on to the slime's face wondering if he knew.

"Oo-rahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

By stepping in to grasp the face of the slime, he avoids the dagger as if it were a whip. And when I put my five fingers in the face of the slime, I hit the ground with the momentum to peel off the “face" in order to expose the "core".

Nevertheless, the slime's flesh does not shred, and Reurus knocks the slime's face on the ground many times.

Striking on the muddy ground would have a weak effect. However, if you attack the area closest to the nucleus, which is a weakness for the slime, in succession, you may be a little scared.

A slime that can't be dealt with instantly by imitating the appearance of a human (Reurus) causes the body to go out of orbit to escape the Reurus. Swing your hands, feet, and sword like a child with a tantrum.

The Reurus who saw it immediately released his right hand and distanced himself from the slime. Then the moment the slime tries to regain his posture, he swings his big sword and jumps.

I put magic on it and drove Silver Flash to say that it would be good if it was cut off even if it wasn't cut clean. However, the slash to the neck is hindered by the big sword of Slime.

"Blow... fly!

Slime's big sword squeezes away from the impact of Reurus's slash. Nevertheless, Reurus put his strength into his whole body and flew the slime.

It was a revus that attacked unilaterally, but the disadvantages remained the same.

At first glance, he's attacking enough to be ravaged, but the slime doesn't do any damage. You can't cut a single arm, you can't break a 'nucleus'. No matter how many attacks the Reurus makes, rubber-like flesh will not be hurt, only draining the Reurus's health and magic.

But from Reurus, that was enough. If you can destroy the 'Nucleus', the original goal is to buy time for Neddy to use his magic.

It wasn't like I wanted to do it with my own hands, but if I could do it, there was nothing more.

Reurus, who blew up the slime, looked at Jilba sideways. However, it is also difficult for Zilba to win against the slime. He was attacking far more than Reurus, but his counterattack was done by just blowing off the slime.

It was a revulsion that blew the slime's “nose out”, which was getting better gradually, but the effect was thin - rather, it could be said to be zero.

The blown slime stood up as if nothing had happened and stood up with a clear sword to guard against the revulsion.

(Even Jilba-san can't destroy the "nuclear" from the outside... then me and the "dragon slasher" are tough to slash and rip the skin...)

It hurts that the sharpness of Dragon Slash fell from previous battles. Perhaps it was because the magic decreased, but it didn't change in that I couldn't slay the slime that turned into a human form.

But Neddy's preparations continued steadily as he earned his time. I could feel the magic gradually increasing from Neddy behind the distance that the slime was pushing in.

"... of the earth... and water... of the world..."

At the same time, the whispering voice of Neddy reaches Reurus' ears. It sounded like a 'chant' that Reurus had heard.

"Chanting" used by Eliza and Sharon. It seemed to have raised the power of magic by pointing the word "against the spirits”.

(Neddy chanting? Wasn't it the Spirit? Or do spirits also use "chanting"... well, I don't care now)

The blood coming out of your forehead falls to your mouth, whether it's because you've been in a fight or because you're excited. Reurus licked his blood with his tongue while looking at the slime and threw up messy together with the contents of his mouth.

Now it's only important to buy time, and Reurus will step by step to get closer to the slime. Compared to the beginning of the battle, the step was heavy, and he remembered fatigue all over his body, but even if the "caloric release" was about to expire, Reurus lifted his cheeks and laughed.

In contrast to such a revulsion, the slime, who was confronting the revulsion, seemed lost in choosing to act.

The upper body holds a large sword to intercept the revulsion, but the lower body retreats slightly as it tries to distance itself from the revulsion.

"Hey... what's the matter, 'The country is eaten'... why are you trying to escape?"

Reurus asks while bleeding to reddish his face. It's unclear if Slime understands the word, but it would be profitable if he could buy time with one word.

Reurus is the disadvantage, and Slime is the disadvantage. I don't think I can pull my hips just because of the slime. Reurus makes that judgment and fills the distance without alarm.

Reurus doesn't know why the ”why” slime imitates itself. In the sense that the attack does not pass, it is more troublesome than the time of the giant body, but as the name "country eats" refers to, if everything is eaten and grows, then there is a battle.

Even if they are resistant to slashing and striking, there is a limit to what they can do if they are as big as humans. For Reurus, it is more troublesome to die instantly if captured in contact like at the beginning of the war, and the threat is inferior even if it is sturdy as it is now.

"--I made it."

Then Neddy, who was preparing the magic behind the Reurus, heard a small voice.
