Encounter (4)

It was not only the maid and the knight who reacted to Jessie’s remark.

▶Says will raise lmao

[Yarn Lady]▶Squishy-nim is cute enough to want to raise~

[Noblesse Fire]▶Looked down on by goblin and treated as pet by human lmao

▶Look at Squishy’s class.

▶Heung, I also want someone to raise me...

▶Ah! human damn!

▶That’s a bit...

▶Isn’t the only one who likes that goblins?

▶Don’t leave out orcs either.

“No, raising a slime! What is that sound, young lady!”

“This is cute! Gentle! I will take it and raise it!”

“It’s dangerous, it’s a monster!”

“It’s just a slime. Pin said before? There are villages that raise monsters!”

“Pin!”

“No, I just said it so the young lady doesn’t get bored...”

Pin felt wronged.

Because he never thought Jessie would say she will raise a slime citing that there are villages that raise monsters.

“Young lady, there are villages that raise, but that is possible because they are gentle slimes that have been handled by people’s hands.”

“This one also handled by hands and is gentle? Then, won’t it be okay? Hihi, slime! You also want to be raised by me?”

Jessie smiling brightly while stroking the slime.

The slime rejoiced at Jessie’s hand. While doing so, it became curious about the word heard for the first time.

‘Raise?’

▷What is raising?

▶Ah, that is you see...

▶They will give you food.

▷Food!

At the too abbreviated explanation, the slime rejoiced and trembled burrur.

“Look at this! It also rejoices because says will raise!”

▶Look at it liking lmao

▶Can’t resist food lmao

▶Not lying.

“No, young lady. If you take a monster, the count will surely get angry.”

“Well? As long as not entering the elf forest, father grants whatever I want! Surely it will be okay!”

“Hmm...”

Wanted to refute right away, but even in Nina’s thinking, Count Ludendion was a considerable doting father.

Except for letting meet the Starlight Archer Nellin, he really did anything. Count Ludendion always treated Jessie with deep affection.

“Nina also touch! Extremely soft!”

“Yes? Me?”

“If you touch, Nina will also understand my heart!”

Jessie grabbed Nina’s wrist and brought it to the slime.

“Wait a moment! I’m sc, scared!”

“Not scared! Pin is holding tightly.”

“...Pin. Absolutely must not let go?”

“Don’t worry about such things.”

Nina placed her slightly trembling hand on top of the slime.

“Uh?”

And at the soft and squishy touch felt the moment she placed her hand, Nina stroked the slime as if her soul left.

‘What to do. Really soft. This is a slime?’

The slime’s body that has the charm of wanting to keep stroking the more one strokes.

The slime trembling burrur whether feeling good because continuously stroked. Such a cute appearance of the slime captured Nina’s heart.

“Yeah, it does look gentle.”

“Right? Then let’s take it!”

“Ah!...Got it. But if the count says no, you must let it go right away. Understood?”

“Yes!”

-Today I will end with this much.

The Slime Queen who ended the slime show turned off the broadcast right away without even looking at the viewers’ chats. Then she immediately opened the broadcast list.

‘Today the same kind should be able to come out of the forest.’

The Slime Queen who continuously watched Squishy’s broadcast as much as possible because worried.

But after the slime evolved into Bounce Slime and showed a leisurely victory against goblins, she calmed the worry a bit.

‘Interfering too much is also not good.’

Thinking it is safe when in the forest, the Slime Queen had ‘personal time’.

And today.

The Slime Queen who thought it was about time for the slime to come out of the forest turned on Squishy’s broadcast.

The slime still cannot skillfully use the system, and does not know the concept of ‘privacy’ well so always has the broadcast on. Because of that, the Slime Queen could enter the broadcast room without difficulty today as well.

And what entered the Slime Queen’s eyes upon entering the broadcast room was.

“Nina~ can’t I put this on my knee?”

“No, young lady. In case it might be dangerous, I will hold it tightly instead of Pin.”

“Is that holding? You’re stroking. Unfair!”

“Ahem! Even if it looks like stroking, I’m properly fixing it. Look!”

At the appearance of humans visible as soon as entering, the Slime Queen’s eyes widened.

‘No, why are you together with humans, member of my kind!’

A completely unexpected situation.

The Slime Queen hurriedly typed the chat.

[Squishy Queen]▶Member of my kind! What on earth happened! Why are you together with humans!

▷Human! Says will raise me!

-Wh, wh, what!

At the slime’s words answering right away, the Slime Queen was astonished.

Rejoicing and answering at the fact that humans will raise itself!

‘Humans raising a monster means making it a spectacle! Dangerous! It is dangerous!’

Humans that appeared in other monster broadcasts were mostly those who desperately rush to defeat monsters or hunters to hunt and make them spectacles.

Having only seen humans who handle monsters carelessly, the Slime Queen could not help but worry.

[Squishy Queen]▶Did you follow right away because says will raise!

▷? Human! Gives food!

The slime’s answer answering purely made the Slime Queen hit her own forehead.

Slaak!

‘What do you mean following obediently because gives food, member of my kind...! No, more than that!’

[Squishy Queen]▶There must have been someone who saw this state! Why did no one stop it!

[Yarn Lady]▶But Squishy-nim is cute enough to want to raise~.

▶Honestly whether raised or not who cares?

▶Ah lmao will somehow be fine lmao

▶Let’s also tour the humans’ nest a bit lmao

▶22222

▶Right!

-Th, these troll guys!

At the words as if no matter how it rolls as long as for fun, the Slime Queen grinding her soft teeth.

Originally the joker or Fenrir would have stopped it on their own even without her.

The Slime Queen who usually was jealous of the two, but now could not help but regret their absence.

Unaware of the Slime Queen’s anger, the slime greatly expecting what food the humans will give.

“Really soft! No matter how many times I touch, not tired!”

The hand full of goodwill made the slime even happier.

‘This is not the time to be peaceful, member of my kind!’

The Slime Queen’s heart looking at that burned away.

+++

The carriage arrived at Count Ludendion’s mansion.

“Let’s go to my room quickly, Nina!”

“Young lady, first have to report to the count!”

“The report can be done by Pin instead? I’m hungry! And this slime will also be hungry! So I will eat snacks!”

Jessie playing a scheme somehow because if going to the count, might hear to dispose of the slime right away.

Since the intention was clearly visible, Nina held the slime and sighed.

“Haa..., Pin. Please report to the count.”

“What? Really going to the room together with the young lady like this?”

“Can’t help it. Still, it was continuously gentle while moving so it doesn’t seem dangerous.”

“Nina! What are you doing! Come quickly!”

“Yes, young lady!”

Jessie took Nina and headed to her own room.

‘Waaaa!’

Burrurrur!

The slime that came to see scenery completely different from the forest seen until now did not stop the trembling of joy.

“Young lady, this slime is continuously trembling?”

“Isn’t it happy coming to our house? Huhu, the slime also seems to know all good things!”

“Is that so?”

On the way to the room, other servants in the mansion saw Jessie and Nina, and the slime.

The servants who saw Jessie passing brightly once, and the slime held in Nina’s hand once, sent a sympathetic gaze to her and pretended not to know.

Because it looked like a matter that would be resolved soon anyway.

Before entering the room, Nina left words to the maid cleaning near Jessie’s room to bring snacks. Then she followed Jessie and entered the room.

“Nina! Put the slime on the desk!”

“Will it be okay?”

“It has been gentle until now. Surely it will be okay!”

Nina carefully placed the slime on the desk.

As soon as freed from Nina, the slime twisted its body little by little and looked around inside Jessie’s room.

‘Amazing! First time seeing! Amazing!’

A human’s room seeing for the first time.

Perhaps because it is a noble young lady’s room, it looked splendid and elegant.

The slime does not have human-standard aesthetic sense. But still looking at the complicated designs and various items, it thought amazing.

▶Humans’ nests are uselessly complicated.

▶If a nest, just eat! Sleep! And poop is enough!

▶2222

[Noblesse Fire]▶Tsk tsk tsk, even if the same cave, have to decorate a bit well to live!

▶ㅇㅇ at least have to have the characteristic of my nest. Otherwise like miscellaneous.

▶Isn’t being attached to such things itself strange?

At the appearance of a human’s mansion seeing for the first time, a debate started between the nest original faction that says leave the nest as is and the decorating faction that says have to decorate.

Of course the slime did not even glance at such a muddy fight.

Because it was busy looking at the room scenery full of colorful new things after escaping the blue lush forest.

Therefore, the slime could not hide its joy.

‘New things! Many! Happy!’

Poyong! Poyong!

The slime that had been gentle until now jumped poyong poyong on the table.

“Kyaak! Ah, young lady!”

Nina who saw the slime that suddenly started jumping hurriedly blocked in front of Jessie.

Because it seemed the slime would jump toward Jessie, she tried to use her body as a shield.

But such Nina’s effort also became bubbles.

Because the slime was just jumping poyong poyong on the table because happy!

“Huh?”

“Why, Nina?”

“No, the slime suddenly jumped...”

“It must be because too happy coming to our house! Surely!”

Originally should refute there is no way!, but as Jessie said, a strange joy seemed to be exuded from the slime’s movements.

‘Really?’

“Nina, move aside a bit. The slime is not visible.”

After pushing Nina’s waist aside, Jessie spread both hands and said to the slime.

“Come here!”

‘?’

Jessie saying to come to herself while spreading both hands.

At her words, the slime stopped jumping and tilted its body.

Jessie said more specifically to the slime.

“Try riding on my hand!”

‘Ride!’

The slime that already had experience riding on Nellin’s hand moved onto Jessie’s hand thinking of that time.

After evolution, since it perfectly mastered the method of controlling force. The slime landed poyong! accurately on Jessie’s hand.

“Kyaak! Look at this, Nina! This, gentle and listens well to words!”

“Uh uh?”

Setting aside being gentle, at the movements that seem to understand Jessie’s words, Nina blinked her eyes.

+++

“So... you brought a slime.”

“Th, that is so.”

The count’s office.

A blonde man emitting a solemn atmosphere was sitting on a chair looking at Pin.

This man is Rufus Ludendion who rules the Ludendion count’s territory.

“Yes. A slime. Since it looked safe in your eyes, you brought it, Pin?”

Pin answered while sweating coldly at the count’s gaze quietly looking at him.

“It is a slime that stayed gentle even receiving human hands. There was no aggression at all. Even when the young lady stroked, only the body trembled a little and there were no movements trying to attack!”

“Hmm, is that so. Then Pin, next I will ask the most important thing.”

Count Rufus Ludendion emitting a solemn atmosphere clasped his hands and asked.

“When stroking the slime, what was Jessie’s expression like?”

“Sh, she was smiling.”

“Smile? Just a smile?”

“...! She was making a smile too beautiful, like the sun!”

“I see!”

Taang!

Count Ludendion hit the desk and stood up abruptly.

“Have to go to Jessie’s room. To see the face of my beautiful angel smiling while stroking the slime!”
