The Man Picked Up By the Gods (Reboot)

~ Side???? ~

Upon immediate guidance from the Moreton Chamber of Commerce meeting, the dragon horses visited the courtyard.

The shop was only built by renovating the aristocratic mansion, and the courtyard is spacious.

Some people may receive that they are idle.

The garden, which would probably have been colored with various grass trees in the past, was on a ground with even ground and sand. In the center, a compartment is set up with brick walls to show off bows and magical arms. There are seats for guests available near the door leading from inside the building to the garden, but there is nothing wrong with slaves rushing around and waving their weapons.

There are already 10 prepared slaves lined up in front of the seats, and when the dragon horses get to their seats, Morton announces the merit review challenge.

"Everyone will show off their skill… they are customers"

Dragon horses...... mainly gaze at Faye, but the story goes on.

"And that opponent is three choices.

One sits over there, Master Faye. He is a former Zilmar military officer and serves as head of security at his employer's shop. If you buy this one, you'll be working under this one. "

While I care about the word "three choices," I guess it was as expected up to this point. Slaves are uniformly calm.

"And the second is Lyoma Takebayashi, who is here. I am the customer of this time and the owner of the store, but I am an active D-rank (...) adventurer in this year"

I get a voice that sounds slightly surprised.

D-rank adventurers are not uncommon.

But given his age from the look of a dragon horse, he's also an excellent category in the E-rank.

"And the third...... no, there's“ three "here, isn't there? Three slimes will be opponents, the Takebayashi-sama's obedience."

"Slime!?

"Exactly that..."

Some of the slaves who were told that only three slimes were opponents seemed to think they were insulted.

But if Morton puts his hand forward and tells him to calm down, he becomes quiet.

"I'll keep explaining. As I said earlier, this time the other person has three choices (...), which means you will be given the right of choice. If you think you're lacking as your opponent, you don't have to fight that opponent. What you're going to do is pick one of the three options that I mentioned earlier, and you're going to actually play a game and show your strength."

It doesn't change what we have to do.

That's what convinced the slaves. He finally turned his attention to the dragon horse.

"Er... judgment will be made on the contents of the game, but I think it will be better to win than to lose. If you're just picked on someone with a very poor strength, the game may end in an instant and you'll have less time to show off your arms.

Think about it and you can work with us like this! Show me that. Please note, by the way, that the submissive slime is not a normal slime, but an evolved superior species "

"Then you all go to the modem once and for all. Five minutes to think about your opponent, and then one person at a time will play the game."

Officials of a man who received Morton's signal and refrained from doing so on the wall take 10 slaves.

And right after they disappeared completely across the door.

"Now, what the hell kind of answer will they give? I'm really excited."

"Finally, you stopped hiding..."

"Oops, Mr. Takebayashi suggested my preferred exam content, so I forgot to hide it"

A dragon horse grins bitterly that it's not his fault to Morton, who looks like he's no longer going to hide his nature.

Four adults are unresponsive to trivial things.

"Give them multiple choices, and tell them that they are more highly regarded for winning." This will test your ability to guess the difference in strength from your opponent. "

"Rather than, you don't know what kind of people are coming to the store. If you're just drunk, it's still true, because there have been people who felt hired somewhere before... but personally, I consider" how to act assuming you're hired ”to be more important. The result is second."

"Hmm? On what basis exactly would you rate it?

"Let me ask you why you chose someone for a word before the game, and it's all about that. I was wondering if it suits my personal thoughts, values, roles… if there are any exemplary answers."

"I see. How many of the 10 of you will notice that...... but Master Takebayashi is also a bad person inside"

"It's true you're a D-rank adventurer."

"Aren't you aware that your appearance, rank and strength are incompatible?"

Only a dragon horse conversation that responds to fun Morton and discipline ensues, and it becomes time.

"What happened to the results?

"Two people chose three slimes. Five people chose Master Takebayashi. Three chose Lady Faye."

"Then, as planned, please ask one person in turn from those with few choices"

"Yes, sir."

Morton giving instructions to his men. Lyoma also gets three slimes out of the dimension home and arranges them in the starting position of the match. At the end of the day, I put a cloth on it to make sure I didn't see it.

Here the first man appears with a sword crushed with a training blade. He walked all the way to the front of the five without hesitation.

"Regards"

"Nice to meet you. Now, before the game, I'd like you to say a word about your intentions and why you chose slime."

"Yes! I've chosen someone to win for sure! I will definitely win!

"Thank you for the clear answer. Then get ready."

I'm still young and healthy and very good.

Dragon Horse thought so, but his appreciation of the response itself was not very high.

(It was the addition element that ultimately made the choice of choosing a definite path. I kinda hate people who make some kind of bet when it comes to letting the store guard. I want someone solid, because I have to have my employees protected who can't fight first. Of course there may be situations where you have to bet yourself, but not now.

Just sayin 'you picked someone you can win for sure, but what did you decide you could win for sure on the basis of? Maybe it's just slime... I taught you what the top species are for once, but still? I'm fine, but I lack a basis for judgment.

It's always bright in character, and good per person. I think I can do well with all the other employees. If you're in charge of customer service, it doesn't seem like a problem...... sorry to hear that)

When a man reaches a position well away from the seats where the dragon horses sit, the dragon horse breaks the thought and signals. Then the pre-prepared slimes slowly crawl out from under the cloth that covers them.

"What..."

The eyes of the man who saw the slimes shake slightly.

It shines in the sunlight falling from the sunny sky, a slime with a metal body.

Usually a dragon horse knife (...), or “metal slime” that acts as its sheath.

"Hmm, sounds like you're thinking a little bit."

"Sora do it. That man's weapon is a sword. Materials say you can't even use magic."

"Iron chunks opponents, only weapons can be used. So it's not compatible. I can hardly win this, yo. I can't give you a decision hit."

"By the way, no one else slaves are good at magic either. Heh heh... you said that if you win, you would be highly regarded, but you didn't say that you were“ willing to let them win ”. No, is that why it's highly regarded if you win?

"Stop saying that like I'm a shady person... because of me, I just thought at this point I'd try to see how far my combat abilities are up with metal slime alone, not as a weapon"

"So what do you think?... or you, Lyoma. The letter I got from you before said something about metal slime, but if it's true, wouldn't it be one-sided?

The officials who brought the man in are about to give a signal of initiation. Exactly six people who now look at and talk to the man who showed a slight upset.

And when the game starts, the contents will be what Reinhardt expected.

"Begin!"

As soon as the official signals, the three metal slimes move so that they can play off the spot.

One rolled the ground in a straight line from the front to the man, gently winding up the sand and dust while hitting his body.

The man calmly prevents it with a shield, although there is surprise at the adult's disease and not at an inferior, out-of-expected rate.

"Ugh!?

But metal slime is like a chunk of metal, so to speak, a ball of bowling.

If momentum is added to its weight, it will be commensurate with its power, and even if it is subjected with a shield, the shock will be transmitted.

As a result, the man stopped and stomped for a moment, from the two remaining left and right turning to that gap, to the first one or two more, and to the situation of being attacked instead of surrounded and replaced from all directions.

The man keeps squeezing three consecutive attacks, but the slimes change their bodies like wheels to increase their speed even further. There is no indication that we can crack the situation open.

"... what arr"

"Also, what can I say about this? That's a fast slime."

"The hardness, the weight, the momentum, the hit, if it's evil, you'll die, yo"

"Did the Duke know?

"Lyoma also wrote about metal slime in the letter you gave me. It's just the first time I've actually seen it. You really made it possible to travel fast with a single slime... by the way, Lyoma, is that you giving instructions?

"No. If you fight only with slime, we trained you to surround your opponent and not let him escape, but to strike one at a time without leaving one free. If you add more slime just like that guy right now, it's just right for my training."

"I ask you one more thing, how many metal slimes were there in all?

"Health is adjusting the amount of bait so that it doesn't accumulate enough nourishment to divide while maintaining it, to keep it down to 200. There are an equal number of iron slimes that can do the same...... what's up?

Reinhardt scratching his head without force.

"Lyoma, I thought something weird was going to happen at the time you mentioned you were going to use the slime... though incompatible, almost reciprocated with a Level 3 swordsman in three. Think of it as something that changes a lot depending on your ideas and training."

The metal slime, as Reinhardt himself confirmed, is the slime he himself gave the dragon horse.

That's why I felt strongly that the slime in front of me was originally within his sphere of common sense.

And it seemed that he had received the word as a compliment,

"There are some coincidences, but the slimes did their best. We have a lot of work to do outside of shops and adventurers, but as adventurers, we are well trained to be strong as their subordinates."

Dragon horses speak rarely and proudly.

Be comfortable and polite with store work, city events, and even detailed daily requests. Such dragon horses became more recent, realizing that I was not recognized as much of an adventurer by my surroundings.

Sure, the percentage of people who work as adventurers is getting smaller, but personally the adventurer is the main business and the store is only a side business. I don't think deeply about what you asked me to do as a neighbor.

However, the perception from the store's regular customers was the opposite.

As a result, if you go to the Adventurer Guild, you will be worried about managing the store by regular adventurers, and regular customers who meet you face to face while working in the city will be surprised that you were an adventurer and asked about the need to work as an adventurer.

It is true that a small percentage work as adventurers, which cannot be denied when it comes to what they deserve.

Some parts are not as troubling, but unclear.

Are dragon horses a subtle age, too?

No one could tell that, but the story of Slime quickly leaned towards a hobby.

"But not yet. There are parts that could be further enhanced in a little while."

"Is there anything more I can do?

"I'm still running in a wheel-like fashion, but I'm training to make that one thinner and the tip sharper like a blade. I refrain from using it because it is dangerous now, but I have recently used it as a knife and have been able to deform it to a blade. The problem is to change it to a blade while driving, or keep moving with the blade. You may fall along the way, your orbit bends, and then you may lose speed and greatly attenuate your power.

However, even at the moment, my body's brittle cave mantis has been cut off, and I have given the horn rabbit a wound that reaches the bone in the hunt. It took me a while, but I was taught to fight without instructions like that, and I think once I have more training and stabilization, the metal slime can still be strong "

"Be strong as an adventurer, it's natural to think about making your submissive stronger..."

"It's going to be horrible..."

"Mr. Lyoma. If it gets harder to keep in the future, I'd definitely like you to talk to me."

"Store owner, the more sir"

"Hehehe... you're as rumored"

The adults, with the exception of one who enjoyed it, did not know whether to expect or be anxious about the future of the dragon horse, but sent a subtle gaze.

Shortly after this, by the way, the game closes with a triumph of three slimes, with an exhausted man being bounced in the order of shield, sword and person. The movement at that time was only reminiscent of the formation of a “samsung" by the dragon horse.
