In the meantime, do you want to take your stuff to Marius's?

Back home, I grab the backpack that Marius left behind.

Check the contents.

Marius, so I'm pretty sure.

You've been buying quite a bit.

He said he was selling off demon stones and materials that he had gotten on the road and was buying another demon stone and materials with it.

Demon ore and medicinal herbs, and the materials of demons hunted on the road.

Also, the demonic stones and materials that were placed in the store.... If they were properly mixed, Marius would be able to make interesting demons, and even the demonic stones of C-rank would be in them.

I'll pack my gear and head to the labyrinth.

Indeed, the number of adventurers is increasing. I noticed this one. They're getting closer.

"Ah, Rude's brother! Are you going to explore the labyrinth?!?"

"Uh, I'm just here to check on you."

I came to see my guardian, which is not necessarily why I have a bad tooth cut reply.

"I see. Well, come in alone and don't get hurt."

One adventurer after another, often involved in the town.

Some people have such a bad mouth that they seem to misunderstand if people hear it, others are worried that they can really continue to be adventurers.

Such a wide variety of adventurers.

All of them will come in my clan with some scumbags.

Do I have to put them together? You're anxious.

Well, I've decided to do it. I just have to do it. I do not intend to turn back in the future.

Enter the labyrinth and reach one level.

Has the terrain changed slightly? You have more trees.

At the root of such a tree were herbs and ore.

... Sounds good, seems to be hiding and installing the material.

For a while, walking through the labyrinth, a magic formation emerges in front of me.

The magic team had a small, human slime.

This way, I'm inviting you. It's only with a clear blue liquid, but she looks like Manichia now.

Assuming it's a trap, I don't know. It's the strongest trap for me. I'll definitely catch you......

Standing on top of the magic formations that Marius supposedly prepared, the human slime sticks out a bit.

For a moment. Then I realize my clothes are getting numb.

The trap is activated and my body is attacked by a floating sensation.

My body was being thrown out into the universe.

When you look down, it's the earth.

Plains like one tier stretch.

"Whoa, Marius!"

I accidentally had a little Marius, so I yell.

And the human slime body that has metastasized with me is puffy and swollen.

That's how I envelop my body.

As it were, it fell to the ground.

I have no pain because Human Slime absorbed all the shocks.

Surrounded by a swollen body, I was feeling comfortable.

In the summer season, I like this watery body.

I'd love to take it home.

"Thanks."

That said, the human slime made his body tremble with joy.

Wake your body up to push the body of the human slime away.

Originally, Slime is a demon that takes and absorbs prey into its body. Once you get caught, it's hard to get out.

But this human slime moves to push me out.

When we descend into the earth, the human slime also takes the form of a person.

I sit in my seat and speak to him who was in front of the pond.

"Hey, Marius...... that's a hello"

"Did you enjoy it?"

"I thought you'd have a heart."

"Ha, ha. I was just thinking about playing with humans. Instead of gold, I was trying to create a hierarchy where I could offer a variety of plays. That's one of them now."

"... I see. That's how you roll up the skin."

"Oh. Now every labyrinth is an adventurer's take, isn't it? Then think we need a different perspective than crusading demons. Not just adventurers, but the average person takes us to the labyrinth."

... Sounds like a blacksmith Ragel.

Milena's creation of accessories is causing a surge in female customers.

That said, I guess it's important for merchants to survive to develop a new customer base.

Marius was thinking a lot about the labyrinth, too.

I kind of already lived like a human, so I thought I'd abandon my guardian position and live as a person.

I wanted that a lot, too.

"What's up, Rude?"

"No, I knew you were a protector, too."

"Oh. I want to fight the strong as a guardian. Just be a member of your clan at the same time. Earn energy in this labyrinth and place, fortify, and make new demons. The demons who have been able to do so will train the clan members gathered for you and I will work with them. What do you think, a brilliant operation?"

"... I see"

"As part of this, I would like to invite the average person as a way to efficiently collect energy, do you think it will work?"

Hmmm......

"... soon, you won't be able to"

"Nano! Why."

Was it because it was an unexpected reply, he raises his voice.

"I have an image of the labyrinth. People often think of the labyrinth as a scary place."

It would be hard to get rid of that all of a sudden.

If I were to do it, an adventurer who said there was a place like that would have to bring a lover of the opposite sex and have that lover tell him again that it feels like...

Thoughts like Marius aren't bad, if you look at them in terms of efficiently recovering energy.

"Right...... well, I can't help it. By the way, aren't you hurt?"

"Sort of. Slime helped me."

When he held his head, he bubbled the water.

Is it an expression of joy?

"Speaking of which, Rude. What can I do for you today? I didn't think you'd come to see me. What, a fight?"

"Delivery. You left all the material in my room."

"Whoa! I did. I did! I also bought sweets for the demons!"

Marius and Human Slime sparkled their eyes.

... do you eat demons too?

How many levels of the city of adventurers were there demons with fruit faces called Millicans.

It's a cookie made of fruit called Millican, which he drops.

Marius liked the citrus-flavoured cookies greatly, and she bought them for some souvenirs.

"Hey, you guys. I bought some souvenirs, come here!"

When Marius spoke, Fildsaurus and Goblins came together.

When Marius throws crushed cookies, he eats them with joy.

But I don't care what that body thinks.

I'll crush and throw it the same way.

... Isn't this a lot of fun?

"... No way, it's so popular"

After all, I thought demons liked human meat and stuff.

Pretty omnivorous, huh?

Marius starts eating again by herself, thinking about when she tasted.

The demons scream woefully.

I don't know what the devil is saying, but give it to me, it's sloppy! Or so you're screaming.

Marius was smiling like he was proud to beat them like that.

"Don't worry, this cookie will be made of material and produced in mass. You can eat your share from mass-produced cookies."

"... can you do cookies or something?"

"Oh, if you use energy."

"Can you even do fruit or something?"

"Absolutely. All right, why don't we duplicate this cookie... and put it in the labyrinth? Cookie tree, this will be a specialty of the labyrinth!"

"No, you should stop where adventurers use it... because it's obviously weird"

I've never been such a labyrinth.

You'll get attention, but this cookie is famous in the city of adventurers.

Exactly, there will be people out there tilting their necks.

It is not very preferable to give out ready-made products. If possible, a tree with millicans would be better.

Marius slowly dropped his shoulder.

"Really? Rude, this is an operation to gather ordinary people..."

"Oh."

"We're going to stretch the hierarchy up to 20 levels first. And then I'm going to build 20 hierarchies as a hierarchy for people to enjoy. Earlier slime drop experiences, dining places, lodging, etc. We want to create a hierarchy that we can use if we consume the outer skin!"

Yes, Marius declared, poking his fist up.
