A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World

Episode 629: Takeo's Consultation. (Ask King Jen about the eraser. 2)

"As Taylor explains, slime is not used in this world (...).

So, the properties of each slime are that red slime body fluids have properties that burn when touched by air and ignited, green slime body fluids contain nutrients that become plant fertilizers when touched by air, blue slime body fluids turn into true water when touched by air, white slime body fluids have properties that harden like rocks when touched by air and ignited, and black slime body fluids have properties that harden like iron when touched by air and ignited.

Teto explains it all at once.

"... Huh? That means... slime is a pretty good material.

Takeo asks as he devises.

"Uhm.

But as Taylor said earlier, there are a lot of things that take in every container.

"... that's a difficult question for each container.

Takeo begins to read the material Taylor brought to him, whining so.

"Erm... slime melts and absorbs things.

Are you eating creature carcasses, vegetables and weeds, and you're a forest cleaner...?

"That's right. And leaves and dead trees.

Don't also melt and nourish the barrel as a type of dead tree.

Sometimes we take in a very rare, living, large organism... but that's a really rare story.

"Every slime is far from eraser, isn't it?

"That's not why.

Mix two red slimes, one green slime, one blue slime, one white slime, and one black slime body fluids, so that they don't get caught in the fire (...) Boil and fly moisture and you should be able to do something like eraser.

"You think direct fire is dangerous?

"Ah. Hot sauce would be a good idea.

"I don't know how you can fly the moisture in the body fluids of slime in a hot fry...

Wouldn't that take a lot of time?

"I guess.

But as it stands, this is the only hand I have.

"Ha... sounds like it's hard to get and work...

Ha, would you even ask the Adventurers Union to get it?

But they don't quite get together, do they?

Takeo sighs.

"... Takeo.

It's hard to see you, but look for something called 'Elder Moon Slime'.

Teto comes forward.

"Elder Moon Slime?? Old moon slime?

"There is a superior form in which a slime called 'Slime of Old Moonlight' has lived for hundreds of years.

If you are lucky, you should have something in human form because this form allows you to make a pseudo (...).

And this slime in human form should be able to speak language.

There must be intelligence as well, as you've lived for hundreds of years, but basically you won't be interested outside.

Maybe you can lend me a slime if I talk to you.

"I see. You negotiate with Slime.

"Yeah.

And I forgot to explain earlier that the slime can't be magical, but when an external enemy comes, it will split, separate, and duplicate itself and attack it in numbers.

But it usually becomes a demon who lives secluded away from where the creature is.

And if you prey on something, you gain a little volume, and the increased amount becomes a mild demon you're throwing out of your body.

Therefore, it is advisable to speak peacefully without engaging in a darkless attack.

"Okay.

Well... should we go to Count Temple territory on the way home from Wang Du?

Takeo troubles Teto's words.

"... No, Takeo, Elder Moon Slime would be close, right?

Jen Wang says there is no clapping.

"Huh!? Nio! Is that true?

Teto surprises me.

"Ah. I've seen you during a late night walk.

"Nio... when did you get out??

Taylor gets discouraged.

"That's two o'clock in the middle of the night, taceously speaking, before Taylor's quiet praise bell.

Next to Jen Wang bragging about his chest, Takeo said, "Jen Wang, it's three ugly times, right? ♪ I can't believe it. ♪

"Where are you?

"Hmm? It's in the woods next to the back castle gate.

"Eh..."

Takeo solidifies.

"Takeo, what's up?

"No... I opened that forest two days ago using ku...

Um... it's about this size.

Takeo writes an overview diagram of the Sassa training ground.

"... Hmm, just around here.

King Jen points to the deepest part of the shooting range in the schematic.

"... should I go apologize?

"Well... I don't know if this is going to be an invasion..."

"I think if you think normally and threaten your living area, you'll take it as an invasion?

Teto tells the facts beside Jen Wang's troubles.

"Right... this will have to go early.

Um... do you eat anything slime?

"Right, you'll like carcasses. Because it's the most nutritional value.

"It's a carcass... but you also eat vegetables and dead trees, right?

"That's what I said.

Teto snorts too.

"Then... what about leftovers?

"Um... it's definitely nutritious and contains meat and vegetables.

"I'll just... go home to the mansion and think about it.

And, Jen King met about 2: 00 in the middle of the night, didn't he?

"That's right.

That time is dark.

Even Takeo would need attention.

"Okay.

Takeo snorted.
