Chapter 22

Ludendion Count’s Mansion (5)

‘Bread delicious! Many people! Many things I don’t know!’

The slime that followed the inspection was joyful and satisfied with seeing, tasting, everything.

Newly tasting food, humans seeing for the first time.

And the senses that became able to feel newly made the slime joyful.

Humans’ food.

Dishes with various ingredients entered gave the slime a large change rather than just eating deer or rabbits whole.

Like vision awakening while growing by eating moss.

The slime newly obtained smell and taste.

Can detect smells through the whole body, and the slime that became able to feel ‘taste’ itself not just distinguishing what is eaten as nutrients.

Obtaining new senses was just two days ago.

Therefore even more new and more enjoyable and joyful.

For the slime tightly packed with curiosity, knowing things it does not know was exciting and enjoyable.

And the slime felt familiarity toward the ‘individual’ called Jessie who gives it such joy.

The slime also, since it has intelligence, could know.

That Jessie saying to go out for inspection to the count and even now wandering here and there is acting for itself.

‘Jessie! Like!’

Like that it came to have goodwill toward a clear individual, and at the same time came to have the heart of wanting Jessie to also feel ‘joy’ like itself.

“Hihi, today I will read the book newly bought at the bookstore, Alexandros the 2nd!”

Jessie who returned from the inspection entered the room with the slime and took out the book bought today.

Not based on existing stories like legends or tales, just a fairy tale for children.

A book bought because there are many pictures so the slime would like it.

The slime liked the fairy tale Jessie reads, and liked her voice reading the fairy tale.

Above all, the action itself of giving for itself warmed the slime’s heart.

Wanted Jessie to also be joyful like itself.

What should be done for Jessie to be joyful?

The slime was immersed in thought while looking at the fairy tale book she reads.

In the middle of that, one thought flashed.

‘...! Shoulder!’

That was when trembling burrur on Nina’s shoulder.

When trembling on the shoulder, Nina liked it.

Nina liked it.

Nina is a human.

Jessie is also a human.

So the slime that concluded that what Nina liked Jessie will also like immediately took action.

Poyong!

The slime immediately jumped from the bed and rode on the shoulder of Jessie who was lying prone reading the book.

“Huh? Alexandros the 2nd? Why?”

Burrurrurur!

“Ah, ah, ah, aaaaa~.”

The slime’s vibration that exquisitely relieves body tension.

On top of that, since the heart of wanting Jessie to like it was also contained, the effect was even more outstanding.

“Th, th, th, this is g, goodaaaa~.”

Voice trembling due to the vibration.

The slime’s vibration ended after doing both shoulders.

“Thank you, Alexandros the 2nd! Extremely good!”

‘Liked! Jessie liked!’

Poyong!

Since Jessie liked it, the slime also rejoiced and jumped on the bed.

+++

It became one month since the slime stayed in the Ludendion count family.

After the inspection, the judgment that the slime is safe to a certain extent was made.

Jessie received permission to go out under the condition that guards accompany and also wandered the territory with the slime.

Territory people who were puzzled and guarded at first seeing once rather looked warmly seeing Jessie and the slime as a set as the number of times increased.

Not only territory people but also among the mansion’s servants, the impression of the slime rose greatly.

The reason was.

“Hihi, Alexandros the 2nd! Show your skill!”

Burrurrurur!

“Oh, ooo! Really a bewitching vibration! To think a slime has such a specialty...!”

“Albert! If saying strange things to Alexandros the 2nd, excluded from massage!”

“So, so, so, sorry. Ah, ah, ah, young lady!”

Jessie who tasted the vibration massage skill the slime showed for her thought.

Wanted everyone to know that great skill!

Therefore once to Nina, next Pin, subsequently the chef who makes food, the range gradually expanded and most servants in the mansion received the slime’s vibration massage.

The evaluation was great acclaim.

At the sensation of stiff muscles from cleaning and various chores loosening in an instant, the impression of the slime could not help but become very good.

And now that opportunity came to the butler Albert.

Jessie was proud.

Because the plan to make Alexandros the 2nd that she likes recognized by the mansion’s people was smooth.

On top of that, recently the slime’s vibration massage skill was increasing even more.

‘Alexandros the 2nd is smart so caught the knack!’

Jessie’s thought guessing was half correct.

Catching the knack is correct.

But the exquisite vibration control increasing was because the slime obtained a new skill while trembling burrur for massage.

[Skill: Vibration acquired.]

The effect of the skill Vibration was simple.

Just making the body tremble.

Since the intensity of the vibration can be adjusted according to the energy used, it was a skill with much higher utility than just trembling ordinarily.

The slime’s vibration massage skill rising by obtaining the skill was natural.

Like that when the slime’s impression in the mansion was becoming better and better using massage.

Only one person still did not withdraw suspicion and caution.

‘Is that slime really safe?’

It was Count Rufus Ludendion.

He observed the slime for one month and thought.

That the slime has not shown a big threat until now.

Rather seems to have considerable intelligence following Jessie well and shows a friendly appearance to humans.

Also recently the reputation of the slime is also good among servants as slime massage.

Even the butler Albert who is one of the servants he trusts praised highly.

The slime itself being safe looked almost confirmed by various circumstances.

But the problem was that that safe slime looks high in intelligence.

He as a count knows various information.

And among them, there was also information that there are monsters with high intelligence enough to communicate with people and such monsters all have threatening power.

However, if trying to separate the slime with only this one information, what words would be heard from the lovely daughter.

“Haa.”

Count Ludendion sighed and asked Albert who came to the office for regular reporting just in time.

“Albert, do you think I am worrying unnecessarily? That slime has not been harmful until now, but I am still anxious.”

“No, that is not so. The count is a monarch to rule this territory. If there is even a little anxious point, paying attention is natural. If it is related to young lady Jessie, even more so.”

“But you also see that slime favorably?”

“I only think that slime’s massage is excellent. If the count is thinking of chasing it out, I agree with that opinion.”

“Thank you, Albert. By the way, is there no particular information about that slime?”

“There are about 2.”

“Tell me.”

“One is that slime seems an individual with extremely strong curiosity.

“Strong curiosity. By the way, Jessie said the slime wants to see outside.”

“Yes. Even when first going out for inspection, the slime showed a strong reaction and rejoiced at seeing outside. But as that number increased, it rejoices but did not seem to rejoice to the extent of being noticeable, Nina and Pin said.”

“Well, even people get tired if continuously seeing the same thing. Being a monster would not be different. Then what is the remaining?”

“...”

“Albert?”

“That is... the young lady is picky about food.”

“Wh, what!”

At the second news suddenly put out, Rufus Ludendion was astonished.

“My angel! Our Jessie is picky about food! Then isn’t it bad for health! Why! Why our angel who ate any food well!”

Count Ludendion showing an intense reaction as if a critically ill patient not taking medicine.

Albert continued speaking while sweating coldly at the still doting father-like appearance.

“It has been witnessed several times secretly moving disliked foods, bell peppers or carrots, to the slime’s plate.”

“How can that be! You this slime! How dare threaten our lovely angel’s health!”

“Count, it is not threatening but the young lady being picky. Please calm down.”

“Albert! If our lovely angel’s health worsens because of being picky, what to do! Still an age of growing rapidly! If picky, big trouble will happen!”

Already far past the age to worry about such nutrition but Albert did not point out.

Thanks to the count specially paying attention to nutrition from a young age, rather the body grew too much and became an appearance that can be mistaken for an adult not matching the age but did not point out.

Albert knows.

That when the doting father runs wild like this, first let him pour out all the words he wants to say then say appropriate soothing words.

+++

Jessie arrived at the office with the slime and Nina at Count Ludendion’s call.

“What is it, father!”

“Jessie, now the time to part with that sli... Alexandros the 2nd seems to have come.”

“Yes!? Wh, what is that sound, father! Parting with Alexandros the 2nd!”

At Count Ludendion’s unbelievable words, Jessie embraced the slime that was on her head.

“Heard. That you make the slime eat disliked foods instead.”

“...!”

‘Thought no one would know!’

Jessie also knew how much father dislikes her being picky about food.

So carefully, secretly giving, but to think someone was watching.

“Sorry, father! I won’t be picky anymore! Won’t tell Alexandros the 2nd to eat instead! So please forgive!”

“Fortunate that you won’t be picky. But Jessie, even if not that, have to part with the slime.”

“Why? Because Alexandros the 2nd is a monster? But Alexandros the 2nd is a really gentle and kind kid! Even gives massage to everyone!”

Jessie looking at Count Ludendion with tears welling.

Almost weakened in heart looking at the lovely daughter’s eyes, but barely endured and put out the answer that pondered and pondered for 3 days before calling Jessie.

“This is for Alexandros the 2nd.”

“For Alexandros the 2nd?”

“Yes. You also know well that that kid has a lot of curiosity?”

“Yes.”

“For that kid, this mansion is too narrow. Wanting to go outside the mansion is also because that kid originally lived outside. Since lived in the wild, wants outside more. Jessie, my lovely daughter. Continuously making that kid stay here is rather a bad thing for that kid.”

“Th, there is no way...!”

The answer Count Ludendion put out.

It was return to the place you lived!

It was the logic of releasing wild animals.
