Chapter 80 – The Wizard and the Slime Dungeon (2)

#

By the way…They. The clothes are no joke The warrior had his belly button exposed in a light suit, and the wizard was an off-shoulder type with his shoulders exposed.

But the most surprising was the priest. Unlike Lenny’s or Kate’s loose, flat robes, it had a long slit towards the legs, so it was a type of priest’s uniform that showed off her legs. And it feels almost sleeveless.

Uh, if you do this wrong, you can see the armpits and panties. He said he’s from Westkeep, so the outfits are definitely different?!

“Ah…”

“What’s the matter?”

Lenny sighs with her pitiful face her. The gaze is fixed on the priest’s face his.

“It is a familiar face. How come this…”

“Anyone you know?”

“Yes. She is a child who was taught by Priest Kate together. Unfortunately…”

I see. I took a quick look at Lenny’s face her just in case, but it did n’t seem like her face her was darkening like before when she did n’t have divine power. I’m glad.

So now I’m going to take this priest’s costume in my eyes and think about how to dress Lenny. Maybe it’s because I’m active with adventurers in a big city, so I’m dressed like this? Especially the slit that goes up those thighs…

“Mr. Eugene. Can I get a canteen and a blanket, please? I don’t think we can just leave them as they are.”

Lenny cut off my thoughts with a slightly cold voice.

“Okay. We’ll be looking after it, so do some research.”

Lenny and Yuri with calm faces. They are eager to do difficult things, as if they would do it themselves.

“…”

…No. It feels like you’re trying to get me off here. The feeling that men are a hindrance.

I’m also curious about what happens if you get hit by a weak slime. Weak slime…

“Brother?”

“Ah okay…”

Aphrodisiac slime… Aphrodisiac slime. Come to think of it, there were only three adventurers in the dungeon. Didn’t the wizard say he was here? Where did you go? Was that wizard also affected by weak slime?

Leaving behind the two of them who turned their backs as if they were trying to cover me, I looked around the cave.

…

I was distracted by the adventurers earlier, and the sight of the cave I hadn’t seen came into my eyes.

Judging by the traces of a bed and a fire, it seems that they have stayed here for quite some time. Somehow, there were tables and research flasks.

There’s really nothing special about it. I lived inside the dungeon, not in front of it. No, that’s enough to make a living.

But it seems like it was a long time ago that I started a fire. Where the hell did that wizard go?

Looking around, there was a journal on the table. It must have been a journal written by the wizard. Maybe there’s a clue here.

The title was written nicely in the journal. Let’s see

[ Rhymer Holstein’s Research Diary ]
[ ~About slime and its possibilities~]

[…I was able to enter the dungeon without being attacked by the slime by mimicking the magic wave. This is possible because the wavelength of the mountain range dungeon is simpler than that of Westkeep’s dungeon…]

…The atmosphere is ominous from the first paragraph. That bone in River Bridge…Wasn’t that guy a similar pattern? Isn’t that wizard hiding somewhere here? I checked the minimap, but there was nothing special. Still, just in case you don’t know.

“Yuri!”

“Yes?”

“Do you need both of them to be there?”

“Well? No?”

“Then check your surroundings. I guess I’ll have to check this out.”

“Yes. Okay.”

Just in case you don’t know, set the glass as a boundary. Read the journal

[…Slime is a unique creature. As long as you have enough magical power, you can recover from any wound. No, the expression “Wound” Itself is not appropriate in the first place. They just disperse, and after a while they reunite. There is no way to completely kill a slime in a dungeon. I saw it with my own eyes, but it’s amazing…]

Interesting stuff. Is it because of this characteristic of slime that the reproduction time is short?

[… It is a well-known fact that the monsters in the outer dungeon only consume magical power. Slime is like that too. It devours its prey, but it does not consume nutrients, it is just an act of aggression […

Indeed. The guess I made when clearing the goblin dungeon was the same. Anyway, it’s a well-known fact. Is it common sense level? Well, even I, who had just landed in another world, can guess, but if you’re a local, you should know.

[…Thus, removing the acid makes it possible to preserve the freshness of the prey. Using this, it will be possible to keep the state of magic materials fresh…]

[…I did it! You have succeeded in removing the slime’s acidity! When the acid was removed, the slime’s aggression also disappeared…]

Hmm. Somehow the slime didn’t attack and didn’t seem to melt anything. Did this wizard do that? Great. I came here comfortably thanks to you.

[…The Magic Tower contacted me. Annoying guys. They are clamoring to submit their achievements so far. I borrowed money from them, but they brought me some research materials, but they still have me…]

[ …The damn elf family’s request came. Could you heal with slime? I don’t know what you’re thinking… It’s written in a polite tone, but it’s clearly a threat. It is said that if it does not produce results, the research fund will be cut off. Can not help it. I have to give them what they want, even if I delay my research a little…]

…This guy was also just a guy who ran research for money.

[…I tried feeding the slime a healing potion. Now it’s time to test it out. I cut myself and put healing slime on it. It seems to be more effective than a simple healing potion…]

[ …But the monsters in the outer dungeon feed on the magic of the dungeon. It’s useless if you can only use it inside the dungeon. The elf family’s request was obviously to bring them out of the dungeon…]

[ …So that the slime can be taken out of the dungeon by applying the Familiar Spell… The slime born while the magic formula is active is like this… ]

I skimmed through it, but couldn’t find anything about where the wizard had gone. He says he can take the slime outside by the way? He’s a little bit dangerous. Where. Even…

[…But the feel of this slime…]

“Brother!”

“Yes?”

“Hey, look at this!”

Suddenly, Yuri pointed to something and called me.

“Bed?”

“No, not the bed. Come over here and have a look.”

I followed where Yuri pointed out… There was a skeleton between the bed and the wall.

“…I guess this is the wizard we’re looking for.”

“That’s right… It’s a bit pitiful…”

“You’re afraid of ghosts, aren’t you afraid of things like this?”

“…When did I?”

“…”

“Hick?! Ha, don’t! Stop it! Hick!”

Look at this. On the subject of surrendering right away because I was tickled a little with my invisible hand. If you can’t stand this much, why are you bluffing?

“Ha…Ha… Tu, I’ve seen them in the arena. A skeleton type undead. It was nothing.”

“…You didn’t even fight.”

“But those undead are just… Small ones? When you first started, you appeared as a group and only played the role of getting hit?”

Again, look at the useless bragging and boasting of knowledge.

Yuri immediately went into a mode of talking nonsense about the disappearance of monsters. I don’t think there will be an end to this guy’s story. I have to do my job.

“What, what are you doing?”

“What are you doing? To mend. You can’t leave it like this. After you’re done with it, you should contact the Magic Tower.”

“Ah…”

I let out a sigh as if I hadn’t thought of it. And then the glass was crushed. Is it because of respect for the dead? But I’m not fixing it for that reason.

“That won’t give you any money.”

“…Wow…”

Ignoring Yuri’s moans of exhaustion, I wrapped the skeleton in a blanket and put it in a corner of my inventory. Maybe it was because he had cleared the Skeleton Dungeon in River Bridge, but he didn’t mind seeing these skeletons anymore. Well, I saw skeletons there for almost a week, so I have no choice but to get used to it.

Well, I would have been a bit embarrassed if there were any flesh left, but somehow there are only white bones, right? Then there’s nothing to be afraid of. Animated skeletons are much scarier.

“…”

Great. The body was roughly recovered. Now it’s time to search the bed.

“Hey, why are you there again?”

“Why? I’ll have to find the evidence. Evidence to prove your identity. If you have something to make money with, I’m going to pick it up.”

“…Whoa…”

This guy keeps making annoying noises. You don’t even know who I’m working so hard for!

I left the glass alone and continued my work in silence. Just as expected.

“Look at this.”

“Wow…!”

The pouch I found was full of small magic stones. The value of each one didn’t seem very high, but if there were still so many numbers. Well. This would be quite a bit of money too.

“If you work hard, you will be rewarded like this? You have to live diligently.”

“…Cow, to be honest, it’s like corpse hair…”

“Tsk! I could have left it like this and just contacted you! Of course you should take care of this! Even the deceased will understand this much!”

“Ugh…”

This guy is out of the ordinary. After spending so much money in Westkeep!

“Mr. Eugene!”

Following Lenny’s cry, the humiliated adventurers sat there as if they had come to their senses.

“Ugh… The head…”

The mage and priest were still sitting, but still confused. A state where only warriors can barely speak.

“Are you out of your mind? Could it happen?”

“Ah yes…”

The other two barely nodded. After receiving Lenny’s cure, the threesome somehow happened.

“Let’s leave at once.”

…

They came out of the dungeon, but the threesome didn’t seem to have time to say thank you. Well, right after getting messed up by a slime, it would be rather strange to say it properly.

I have to return to the village as soon as possible… But I have unfinished business.

“Do you want to go back to the village first? I have something to do here for a while.”

“For what?”

“I have a question for a moment. I’ll come back later and let you know.”

“No, why don’t we go back together… “

Yuri muttered as if it were absurd. Lenny, too, has a slightly dissatisfied look. I pulled them together and whispered.

“Look at those people. I think it would be rather uncomfortable if I were there. Take him first and… Wash him or something.”

“Yeah, that’s right… “

“Lenny. Did you say it was a familiar face? Um… Well talk. I really don’t know what to say.”

“Ah yes…”

The two of them shook their heads and disappeared, dragging the still confused trio.

“Stay while!”

“Yes!” “Yes!”

Well, I told them that, but it wasn’t just for that reason. Let’s see…

[ Dungeon #7816 ]
[Type: Slime / Irregular]
[ Until reproduction: 01:55:29 ]

It will take a little while.

I moved my steps into the dungeon. And…

…

[ Registration of the familiar of 「Slime」 Has been completed. ]
[The familiar of 「Healing Slime」 Has been registered. ]
[ Registration of the familiar of 「Aphrodisiac Slime」 Has been completed. ]

Great. Shall we go now

I put the slime into the flask with a sinister laugh.
