Stare at the trembling Red Slime at your feet.
Slime was staring at me like he expected somewhere.
No, I don't have eyes.
He really wants to be one of me.
What do you say yourself, but where did you get attracted to me?
This slime, it's a pit. Oh, I didn't have eyes.
Scratch your head with puffiness.
"... I've told you before, I'm not going to keep you company - hmm?
While talking, I noticed something.
In Red Slime's body.
There was something "another" floating around besides a little nucleus like plum.
"Is that... a demon stone?
A brown demonic stone floating in Red Slime's body.
Somewhere familiar form, or......
"Could it be the Demon Stone I had?
When I said that, Slime made me wiggle.
Maybe you're saying you're right.
This guy......
"Give it back, I'm going to give it to Momo -"
"Wow!"
Momo broke in between as I tried to reach for the slime.
"... Momo?
"Wow! Wow."
Momo barks at me to shelter Slime.
Oh, Momo, what's going on...?
Did you do something to make me hate you?
Shit, I think I'm gonna cry a little...
"Wow!
Seeing me wolf, Momo panicked and elucidated.
And he looked at me with his front leg flat on top of the slime.
Plumpy, shivering body of slime. That trick, it's a little cute.
"Momo...... maybe you want to keep that slime company?
"Wow."
Momo nodded.
Apparently Momo wants to keep this slime company.
Or maybe...
"Hey, Momo. Could it be that you threw the Demon Stone outside just now to give it to him?
"Wow."
Once again Momo nods.
I knew it. The mysterious behavior that Momo did during his earlier meal.
I thought it was strange for a Momo who liked Demon Stone, but was that what you said?
Momo knew this slime was out there.
And then I had some idea, and I gave this slime a demon stone.
Reasons to give Demon Stone...... Is it an enhancement or 'skill' that comes to mind.
Could this slime also be, as Momo gained the skills of 'Shadow' by eating Shadow Wolf's demonic stone...
Looking at the slime, I think I just digested Mimic's demon stone.
"Wow."
"... (sighs)"
Momo barks at the slime.
Then Slime trembled and 'changed' his body.
"Oh, oh..."
My voice leaks unexpectedly.
Slime's body gradually changed into an empty plastic container.
Oh, this is the garbage I fed him.
"Transformation... No, a pseudo-skill..."
This is amazing.
You don't know how different it looks.
I tried it, but it doesn't change my touch.
It just weighs different. Maybe it stays the weight of the slime.
And just like in Mimic, I don't even respond to 'Sovereignty'.
Great skill.
"Wow."
When Momo barked again, Slime went back to where he was.
And the slime back in its original form, with Momo, stares at me with the eye I expected.
... Could that have been an appeal to him now?
I can do this! Like.
"... Momo, you didn't realize? He said if you give Mimic's Demon Stone to Slime, you might gain pseudo skills."
"... wahoo"
Probably kind of made me that way.
Momo replied like that.
Is that the wild one?
Even so, it's too awesome, Momo's survey.
"Red Slime is now one of us. I'm watching you. Do you want to be one of them?:
Heavenly voice sounding again.
I stare at Momo and Slime.
And exhaled heavily.
"Ha... ok, Momo. My loss."
Slime with pseudo skills.
Sure, this won't get in the way of my skills.
On the contrary, for a physical attack to be ineffective, it is impeccable as a force of war.
More importantly... Momo said his opinion for the first time.
Then you'll have to believe it.
About Momo, about this slime.
Now I choose Jesus in my head.
Red Slime is now one of us.
"Certain conditions have been met."
"Occupation 'Demon Man' is now available."
"Occupation 'Beast Man' has been integrated into 'Demon Man'."
"If you choose the occupation 'Demon Man', it will start with LV2."
Oh, you've added a new profession.
"Demon Man" or...
Sounds like a top position in "The Beast Man" to see from the voice of heaven today.
I'm curious to see what skills you get, but is that when the third profession is liberated?
"... (sighs)"
Are you happy that it was accepted, Slime shook his body with a pull.
Momo was good, too. - I'm stroking the slime.
Wow, puffy, muffy.
... What's this, sweetie?
I'll take a look at the status.
Slime had been added to the party member item at the bottom.
labeled Red Slime LV5.
Does the monster have a level after all......
Unlike Momo, is there no name notation?
But it's inconvenient when you call it without a name...
"Hey, Red Slime. If you don't mind, can I give you a name?
When I said that, Slime reacted with a piqun.
Apparently, he wants you to put it on.
"Hmm... so how about 'aka'?
Aka because it's Red Slime.
I think I have a cheap sense of naming.
But they liked Red Slime.
I shook my body happily.
Whoa, he's stretching out like a cake.
Looking at the status, the name was added to Red Slime.
Momo
Shiba LV9
Aka
Red Slime LV5
And what do you care? Momo's level is up.
Almost got it to LV10.
Come on, let's go.
"Wow!"
"... (sighs)"
This is how Red Slime's Aka became one of us.
With our new friends, we left the apartment.
Meanwhile, around that time...
"Uh-oh! Shibata! Ha, help...... Awwwwwwwwww!!"
Blood strikes, and another companion falls.
Shibata was staring at the situation.
I didn't know what that meant.
What's this situation?
How did this happen?
Expanding their search to procure food, they've come this far.
The journey was very smooth.
One or two monsters showing up also have goblins and zombies.
They were not their own enemies who raised the level and formed a detachment.
"Let's go a little further."
Whose language was that?
There was no one to oppose it.
Shibata and the others were on track to defeat the monsters, increase their level, and gain new skills.
We can do it. Even stronger monsters can do it ourselves.
Let's get tons of food and surprise everyone.
That's what I thought, expanded my search, and I've come this far.
But their fast forward ends abruptly.
Large shopping mall reached.
There was a 'monster' far beyond our imagination.
"... hey, what the heck is he...!
Shibata, a bad-looking student hiding in a nearby bush, was trembling.
"Ghaaaaaaaa!
One more person, I hear my people screaming.
Help? No, you can't. There's no reason to be enemies.
The array is on too different levels.
"Ha... Ha, ha...! Fuck, fuck!
Repeating shallow breaths, Shibata made a decision.
"Oh, hey! Shibata!? WHERE ARE YOU GOING!? HAVE TO HELP THEM ASAP - UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!"
With his buddy screaming behind his back, Shibata fled.
He chose to run away.
Shibata runs to earn a little distance in the gap where he's distracted by his people.
(Sorry...... guys, sorry......!
I repented of abandoning my friends in my heart.
Still, his legs didn't stop.
"... I need to hurry and tell Nishino. Quickly... Quickly...!
Someone... someone has to survive and tell them.
The presence of that monster. to the surviving companions.
There was that monster screaming all the time in his ear running trembling.
