The Man Picked Up By the Gods (Reboot)

To be rocked by a carriage for three days.

I spent most of my time preparing meals and learning how to handle horses from Miseria and Meyer.

Goblins and other warcraft attacked me several times when I left Gimru, but I was immediately tailored by Mr. Rapin's magic, and the large number did not reach this carriage where leading adventurers gathered.

There's no curtain for me. I can spare time without a shared job. So I heard how convenient it would be if I could get a carriage, and when I talked to him, he could tell me how comfortable it would be.

For that reason, I am learning how to ride a carriage that I have never experienced in my previous life.

"Looks like you've got the basics on you. I don't think there's a problem with the rest if you get used to it."

Oops, Miseria tattooed me watching next door.

"Thank you, Mr. Miseria"

But I still can't say I totally got it. You're gonna have to practice after this request, and when you get home, you're gonna buy a carriage?... I don't think I have much chance to use it, so I feel like I don't have any. We're going to need horses as well as carriages, and we'll think about it before we decide.

Then about 4 hours later, I was told it was time for the nearest city to the desired forest.

If you continue on the carriage for another 20 minutes or so, you will see the city gates.

From here there will be many people, so we will take turns with Mr. Miseria.

Relax and take a look at the gates and the streets, this is like a city a lot smaller than Giml. But there is also a lot of buzz. All buildings throughout the city are made of wood, which is frequently different from a lumber-loaded carriage. Is forestry thriving in this city?

... I arrived at the inn while I was thinking. Three men, four women, split up to pick up a room, and then gather information on Trent's sightings and more in the Adventurer's Guild, ready for tomorrow.

Next day

"Are you ready?

We snort at Mr. Asagi's voice and step into the woods.

The lead is Mr. Meyer and Mr. Miseria. Next, Mr Syria and Mr Welanna. Followed by me and Mr. Rapin. And it's Mr. Asagi to my lord.

The forest is dim and depressing. If that's all, there was a similar place in the Ghanaian Forest, but something is different. Somehow the air is starving, don't feel like you can't breathe...

"Mm... I'm here fast. Meerya, can you see the other trees that are slightly thicker about 10 meters ahead?

"Is that it?

"It is"

I will point and listen to one tree, Mr. Meyer. Would the trunk of the pointed tree be about 30cm to 40cm in diameter? It's about 4 meters tall. I can't really tell the looks from the trees around me. As I was told, I feel slightly bigger and longer branches than the trees around me, but I wouldn't notice if I didn't look carefully.

Upon receiving an unmistakable response from Rapin, Meerya and Miseria approach him with a one-handed axe after confirming that there are no other Torrents around. Today's opponent is Trent, so the women had Nata or a small axe in their hands.

When the two approached, the branches of the tree indicated earlier became, swinging like whips from above toward the two.

The two gently flatter it. But Trento's branches seem to bend unexpectedly freely from the solid-looking texture, trying to tangle with Mr. Miseria with his branches.

When Mr. Miseria immediately axes off the branches, Trent's branches sag slightly and the trunk slopes slowly.

"It's okay now!

"Finished."

As I approached the two places waving at me, Mr. Meyer's axe was stabbing Trent.

It was shady and invisible from where I was, but it seemed like she was pounding an axe into a cob like her face. My forehead is perfectly twofold.

"Avoid the branches, and you'll end up with a blow."

"One person is a pretty easy opponent, so the next time you're alone, Lyoma, I think you should try to fight."

"Thank you....?

Next to the two people who gave me advice, Mr. Rapin, who has a difficult face, gets into my eyes.

"Mr. Rapin, what's wrong?

"It is fast to find it. Trent is a warcraft who prefers dark places deep in the woods, so he rarely comes out so close to the forest entrance."

Speaking of which, there were no sighting reports near the entrance either in the information obtained at yesterday's guild.

"This could be a lot in the back."

"A distracted Trent may have just come out lost, but don't be alarmed."

Everyone, including me, tightens their minds, drops branches from the tightened Trent, stores them in Mr. Rapin's Dimension Home and walks out again.

And after a while, there's one Trent again.

"I was there. Lyoma, try it."

"Yes."

Step forward and pull out the Big Iron Slime sword. By the way, the sheath is big metal slime. Strong enough thanks to hardening skills. Good cut too. Now that I'm used to deformation, a reliable swing that instantly repairs bends and blades in case they overflow.

… reconfirm target Torrent with Magic Sensing. Focus on your body and knife and place the knife in eight phases. This time Trent is thinner than earlier, but slowly approaching, a branch attack came from above where he entered Trent's range of attacks.

As he turned to the right, Cobb, a weakness, could be seen. Swing the knife down there immediately. Then I was able to cut off the cob in a way that scraped my face off directly from the side.

The moment I cut it, Trent made a groaning sound, but no particular harm. The chopped cob hits the roots that were at the drop point, making a crisp noise and rolling to the ground.

I guess I could have done it with a machete. The magic is rapidly lost, and the branches drip and lean, as earlier.

"You don't seem to have a problem."

"We have to collect the numbers, let's go more and more at this rate"

Trent's danger lies in a simulated and unintended strike on the surrounding trees. Conversely, if it could be discovered before it enters Trent's range of attacks, that danger would be greatly reduced. For now, one-on-one doesn't seem like a problem. I don't know about the rest if it's a herd... but we'll see about that.

Then crusade until noon in the woods to secure trent in large quantities. And when I got used to fighting a lot, I found the herd, so we all wiped it out and recovered it.

I counted the achievements, what a surprise 147. It seems that the forest was originally open and used by those entering the forest for a break, but Trent was filling it with it, making it look like the forest was going on. Neither is this in yesterday's information.

"We still have time, so we don't have to rush to secure Trent material. I am concerned that the number of trents is much higher than the information that precedes it. Better tell your guild sooner..."

It is true that the situation is very different now from the information. Including what we've hunted so far, we've already gathered nearly 200 Trents. We had a minimum of 300 bottles planned, but since more than half of them are already gathered, we are going back to the city early today.

The receptionist who was at the reception today in the Guild about the state of the woods...... reports to a slightly older woman, she says this with a strange face.

"Was it...... thank you. As a matter of fact, there were people who said earlier, just like you, that the state of the forest was different, and we were about to send people out to see what was going on in the back of the forest."

"Was it, or do you have any idea of this mass outbreak?

"There could be Elder Trent. That forest is home to Trento all year round, and there are discovery reports every few to more than a decade..."

"Again... do you mind if we go into the woods? What about regulations?

"You're all free to go. All A- and B-ranks will have no problem."

I'm E, but let's keep it quiet. Woman doesn't seem to stop me from going into the woods either. On the other hand, the woman brought Trent's crusade request that we should go into the woods anyway.

It is possible for Adventurers to order multiple requests simultaneously. For example, an adventurer who receives a request for something and orders a request he can do near it to do his job and earn more is doing what is normal if he can afford it.

In this case, defeat Trent here to receive the crusade reward, and take the defeated Trent to Giml to receive the reward of securing Trent Materials. The purpose of the request here is to defeat Trent, and the purpose of Gimru's request is to collect Trent material, so there is no extra effort or problem. If we hunt Trent like we do today, we can achieve it.

Having thus obtained the necessary information, he finally also received Trent's request to crusade.

Tomorrow is the next time we go into the woods, and it will be free time until tomorrow.

"You've got some free time I haven't planned..."

It's also a waste of time. Enter the subspace warehouse for slime and training.

Will you be training with Poison Slime today?

Ten minutes after I thought so, I thought I was in training.

I wonder what would happen if I gave Merzen's spear to Poison Slime?

That spear that's fattening up the item box. It may be a little heavy, but as a spear, it would also manage to be used for poison slime. But what about as a magic weapon? … confirms that the slime releases magic as it evolves. Is that just for evolution? Or is it something you can do at any time?

I doubt it. I just have to try.

Invoke 1 Poison Slime to test for Magic Release. Then, he began to release his magic lightly. You might be able to do this!

If that were the case, it would have been quick until I took Merzen's spear out of the item box.

Let the poison slime in front of you hold it and let it enchant. Then... the fire blows out of the tip of the spear with momentum.

"! Success! Can you keep swinging the spear?

Poison slime manipulates a spear that blows out fire to show. Still moving worse than usual if the spear is heavy...... still works once and for all. However, if I let it continue, it has moved slightly worse.

"Tired of slime...... you're out of magic even though you don't usually make me feel at all?

Let's make it stop now.

The moment I thought. Poison slime removes the spear and the body shrinks.

"What's up!?

Run over and see what's going on. There's not going to be anything else in my life. But I'm a little weak. Your body will be about half the normal poison slime and your movements will be dull.... Let's just see how it goes while giving the magic of the poison attribute.

"It wasn't shrinkage that made my body smaller... I just didn't think Poison Slime had shrinkage skills..."

I looked it up in the Warcraft appraisal, and I still don't have the skills to shrink. Then why? Because I let you use magic?... That's about all I can think of, but then we'll talk about why my body shrunk when I used magic.

"Body... magic... consumed?

There's no certainty, but what if Slime's body is made of magic? It explains the shrinkage and weakness caused by the use of magic. Or else I can't think of a reason.

But magic is not visible or touchable like slime's body... but slime disappears when he dies. If Slime's body is magic, it might explain the phenomenon... but then...

"...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

In the meantime, let's assume that Slime's body is made of magic. I would also like to speak to Mr. Rapin later for his opinion.

And I asked Mr. Rapin at dinner, but Mr. Rapin also told me he didn't know.

In the first place, it was an idea that never tried to give Slime an expensive magic weapon, and I was surprised that Slime could release magic and use magic weapons.

And the final conclusion is that it's possible. In the first place, the Warcraft houses more magic in their bodies than ordinary animals, and the kind of magic that cannot be used is no exception. So there is no wonder that Slime has magic?

However, when the magic that is the body is used to shrink, I do not know why the magic slime, such as ground slime or heel slime, does not shrink.

This still needs to be continued research......

Next day

Trent hunting and retrieval in the woods today.

Nevertheless, there is really a lot of trent...... I would have hunted while taking a break from morning to noon alternating and collected 600 bottles of trent material all the time in two days.

"It's about time we had fewer vacancies in our Dimension Home. I think that's enough for today, but what do you think?

I've reached my goal, and I still have time. There is no objection from anyone, and today's work is to be cut off.

"! Lyoma! Look at that!

Suddenly Mr. Rapin pointed at the sky and raised his voice as he walked through the woods.

Looking in the direction indicated, a small sphere of green is floating in the sky from among the trees. On top of that...... big tampon cotton wool? I wonder what it is?

"It's a slime!

"Slime!?

"It's the kind of fluff slime that has the ability to fly. I don't think he had a rheuma..."

"I certainly don't have that slime, and I didn't know it. Can you get him?

"It is easy." Pickup ""

The next moment Mr. Rapin stuck his hand forward looking at the slime in the air and cast a spell. Slime, who should have been in the sky, appears a little further from his hand.

"What's that?

"It is a spatial magic that transfers the subject to or near his own hand. Unusable unless the subject is visible. And it's a tricky magic to target, so there are few users, but some opponents have the advantage of being able to capture it intact. That is why we are catching the warcraft that we study with this magic. It's also used to capture Grellfrog."

"I see..."

Speaking of which, when you were hunting for Grellfrog, you said you'd magically catch him or something. Is this magic?

"They contract faster than that. It's not safe here either."

"Yes, I was."

Hurry up and soften the contract with the fluff slime in front of you.

It's just the right size for my palm, little hand-ride slime.

Keep it inside the Dimension Home and walk again thanking Mr. Rapin and everyone who was on perimeter alert. The walk could have been slightly faster.

I arrived in the city before sundown. Return to the inn in a straight line, warcraft appraisal on the fluff slime.

Fluff slime

Skill Flight Lv1 Growth Promoting Lv5 Lightening Lv10 Photosynthetic Lv3 Absorbing Lv1 Dividing Lv8

Do you not need digestion because there is photosynthesis? Absorption would be water. This flight and growth boosting, lightening is the first characteristic skill I've ever seen. And then... the level of division is high! It comes with like cotton wool, and it still increases like tampons?

In the meantime, lift the fluff slime to confirm your skills and let it try to be lighter.

It suddenly became lighter as if it had lost weight. Originally lighter than other species, but still felt the weight right. That's completely gone now.

No change in size. Though I wonder what's going on with the mass... it seems only my body can be lighter. Well, if it can be lighter to other things, it's convenient to carry luggage, someone will notice the position.

Hmm... in a lighter state, they fly away with just a slight breeze I wave and move my arms. Perhaps this is the skill of flight.... I think flotation is the correct expression, but it seems that the adjustment of the altitude can be slightly adjusted once it is lighter. It's hardly the same as leaving it to the wind.

After completing the observation, Mr. Rapin told me that Fluffslime can travel quite far in the wind, so it's possible to see it anywhere for a price.

However, there are not many occurrences. Why is there a high level of division?

I thought so and asked, and at the time of the split, they said it would fly like tampon cotton wool as expected, but I got the answer that not all cotton wool would be fluffy slime.

It should be noted that if a mass outbreak occurs, cotton wool becomes annoying, and they are often asked to crusade to exterminate it from neighboring cities and villages.

After this job, we'll take the time to figure out if Fluffslime can't do anything about it either.
