Chapter 25

New Meeting (1)

‘New human!’

The slime was joyful at directly seeing a new human not just passing by riding a carriage.

Understands by knowledge that not all humans are the same, but even so could not hide that the human seeing close after a long time is welcome.

Meanwhile, at the appearance of the bandits looking at the slime puzzled, the chat window also became active.

▶What are these humans again?

▶Look dirty.

▶lmao

▶I know this. Guys called bandits.

▶Here for a moment! What is a bandit? Among humans, guys who form groups and steal food or money used to buy food from other humans!

▶Explanation bug after a long time.

Chats pretending to know having come to know a little about human culture while watching the mansion broadcast for a month.

[Just Ram and See]▶Oh! Humans that can be rammed!

▶Nim?

▶Paired wolf kid declaring human ramming.

[Just Ram and See]▶Not such a thing!

▶Taste twisted because scraped so much?

▶Ah! human damn!

[Just Ram and See]▶No!

Chats teasing other viewers as usual went back and forth.

The bandit group was a total of 4.

A man with a sturdy body and sparse beard on the chin called hyung-nim.

A man of small body wearing a hood on the head.

A large-bodied man with a protruding belly.

A man only tall and skinny.

The man called hyung-nim looked at the slime while rubbing the bearded chin with his thumb.

‘A slime this gentle is rare to see. If well, might sell at a good price?’

A slime standing as if staring blankly not even running away even if there are several people.

In the world there are peculiar species that like appreciating monsters.

And such strange guys were very generous in spending money.

“Let’s take it first. Def, hold it.”

“Won’t it bite, hyung-nim?”

The large-bodied man with protruding belly, Def, squatted and carefully looked at the slime, the small-bodied man giggled.

“Fool! Slimes don’t have teeth! Won’t bite!”

“Ah, right?”

Def lifted the slime with both hands.

A human’s hand felt after a long time.

Because larger than Jessie and due to the flesh, the soft feeling was stronger.

Burrurrur!

The slime trembling at the person’s warmth felt after a long time.

“Uaa!”

Def who was startled at the vibration felt in the hand missed the slime.

Poyong!

The slime landed extremely exquisitely on the small man’s head.

“Uak! What!”

The small man shouted startled at the soft touch suddenly felt on the head.

“Kheup! Slime on Sgol’s head. Kheup. Heheup!”

The skinny man blocked his mouth and leaked laughter.

“Def! You didn’t hold properly! And Hawein! Did you just laugh!”

The bearded man called hyung-nim sighed looking at the 3.

“Don’t play and quickly take that slime and go.”

“Going back, hyung-nim?”

“If no one comes until this time, it’s a miss.”

“Def! I said hold again!”

“Got it...”

The large-bodied man, Def, held the slime again and the bandit group returned to their hideout.

+++

While the bandit group was returning to the hideout, the slime was doing a new play.

‘Def! Fat! Timid!’

It was matching characteristics while observing humans.

‘Sgol! Small! Throws a fit!’

Looking at the content of books read every day and life inside the mansion, and the appearances of various people seen while wandering inside the territory, the slime at some point was enjoying the play of matching by combining names and characteristics.

‘Hawein! Skinny! Gloomy!’

The slime even enjoyed reviewing the facts it newly knew.

‘Hyung-nim! Don’t know the name! Gives many instructions!’

“Hy, hyung-nim. This slime is continuously trembling?”

“What is that, is that slime even absorbing your hand?”

“No.”

“Then keep holding.”

“Yes...”

The bandits’ hideout was a tent in the forest.

‘Nest!’

Much shabbier and less presentable than the elf village or the mansion, but the slime understood that the tent is the bandit group’s nest.

▶This kind of thing... human nest?

▶Ah lmao if eat and sleep is enough lmao

▶Is the difference from the kanfs and humans seen until now real? The chest becomes grand.

▶Not petty? lmao

The bandit group that arrived at the hideout put down the swords and each sat in their places.

“Tsk, thought something would pass today.”

“There are days like this too...”

“Puhup, what is there. Not seen for two days.”

“What is funny about missing, Hawein.”

“Ah, no. Sorry, hyung-nim.”

The bandits tried to prepare living expenses by blocking the path and threatening and collecting tolls when merchants pass.

Waiting near the path and if a carriage worth raiding, block the path, and if seems to have strong guards, immediately flee.

And if succeeding in the plunder in the name of receiving tolls, secretly invade the village with that money and trade in the black market was their method.

The man called hyung-nim clicked his tongue looking at his sword whose blade was damaged.

“Have to see prey quickly to repair this too.”

“Hyung-nim, can’t we just do adventurer again?”

Def carefully brings up words but Sgol stands up abruptly and hits his forearm.

Slaak!

“Ouch!”

“Fool! How many times said! Our wanted issued! How do adventurer! Already forgot that hyung-nim punched a noble’s face and became like this!”

“Puhup, th, thinking of the noble’s face then is funny.”

“Both shut up.”

At the appearance of the foolish subordinate speaking his past mistake without noticing, the man sighed again.

“Sgol.”

“Yes, hyung-nim!”

“What food is left now.”

“Only a few fruits! Have to go hunting!”

“Is that so.”

The man stood up from the spot.

If doing nothing, the foolish subordinates will surely spit out conversations that scrape his insides, so thought just procuring food to eat in the evening in advance would be mentally comfortable.

“Hawein, prepare the bow and follow.”

“Huhu. Yes, hyung-nim.”

The man and Hawein left the spot to procure food, and Sgol, Def, and the slime remained in the hideout.

“Hope hyung-nim and Hawein catch a deer...”

Def said a hope and kneaded the slime.

“Def! You, what are you doing now?”

“Huh? Waiting for hyung-nim and Hawein.”

“Not that fool! Why continuously holding the slime.”

Sgol starting the usual nitpicking because nothing to do and waiting is boring.

“This slime. Because continuously holding, good to touch... so, soft?”

‘Soft!’

Since heard the words soft a lot from Nina and Jessie when in the mansion, the slime understood that being soft is a compliment.

“Ah, trembling. Liking because heard soft?”

“How would I know!”

“Sgol also want to touch? Really soft.”

“What soft!”

Sgol snatched the slime from Def’s hand as if snatching.

“What is so soft about this mere slime? Huh?”

Sgol pressed repeatedly from left and right with both hands as if throwing a tantrum without kneading the slime.

Poyong poyong poyong!

“What soft about this slime... no, why is this guy this elastic?

Even if Sgol pressed from left and right, the slime returned to the original form right away with its unique elasticity.

“Do, don’t, Sgol! What if the slime gets angry and attacks, wh, what to do.”

“Heh! What if a mere slime attacks!”

Sgol who does not stop the slime repeated pressing even while saying.

Of course, the pressing of small-bodied Sgol could not give even a very small wound to the slime.

Sgol threw the slime on the floor as if discarding and said.

“Hey, slime! Try attacking somewhere! Try doing!”

“S, Sgol, why!”

Sgol thought there is no way the slime that cannot understand words anyway would attack.

From the beginning, even if attacking, the level of the slime’s body slam could be easily avoided.

Meanwhile, the slime tilted its body because not understanding Sgol’s words.

‘Attack?’

▶Seems the human doesn’t want to live.

▶What is the new suicide method?

▷Can attack?

▶lmao Squishy is also at a puzzled level lmao

▶go go go

▶As you want?

‘No, that won’t do.’

The joker appointed as the manager of Squishy’s broadcast room watching this situation.

Nickname Free Spirit hurriedly typed the chat.

[Free Spirit]▶No no if attacking sincerely no.

[Free Spirit]▶Just making a bit painful would be fine.

[Free Spirit]▶If killing, becomes extremely bothersome.

The joker also did not say to just stay still when looked down on.

However, at the level of just evolving once, indiscriminately killing humans and becoming a subjugation target was very dangerous.

▷A bit painful?

[Free Spirit]▶Much weaker than when hitting the rabbit.

Even so thought Sgol who throws a tantrum at the slime for no reason should see a bit painful appearance.

▷Yeah!

▶Not killing this.

▶Isn’t swiftly doing human better?

▶Ah lmao still Squishy is very weak lmao

[Free Spirit]▶No harm in being careful ㅇㅇ.

Since the slime stayed still asking the chat window, Sgol thought his thought was correct and giggled.

“Ha! Look at this, fool! Would the slime get angry? No way a mere slime is smart enough to get angry...”

Poyong!

Peok!

“Keok!”

“S, Sgol!”

The slime bounced very lightly and fed a tackle to Sgol’s side.

“Oh, oot! My, my side! Aaaak...!”

Even if not killing the rabbit in one shot, at the heavy and exquisite shock, Sgol held his side and trembled.

“Se, see. The slime got angry.”

“This damn slime!”

Even if painful, not a big shock so Sgol stood up again and reached out his hand toward the slime.

But.

Poyong!

The slime avoiding Sgol’s hand this way and that while bouncing poyong poyong.

“Not coming here! Where are you running!”

Poyong! Poyong!

Sgol who tried reaching out his hand somehow to catch, but the slime avoided all of that exquisitely.

▶lmao

▶Human bastard lmao can’t catch Squishy ju? Looks good ju? Frustrating ju?

▶Would a mere human be able to catch Squishy lmao

[Noblesse Fire]▶Khehahaha! Think can catch Squishy with just that much!

▶Humiliation damn fun lmao

Poyong! Poyong!

The slime that continued avoiding went up even to the shoulder of Def who was sitting, then jumped once again.

This time went up on Def’s head.

“Ah.”

“Hey! Def! You stay still there!”

Sgol reaching out his hand again to the slime that went up on Def’s head.

But.

Poyong! Poyong! Poyong! Poyong!

Every time Sgol reached his hand above Def’s head, the slime jumped matching the timing and avoided.

“Uh... Sgol.”

“Noisy! Don’t you see concentrating!”

“Wouldn’t it be fine if just continuously touching my head with the hand?”

“...! Know without saying, fool!”

Reaching out the hand once again and the slime avoided, this time Sgol did not withdraw the hand and waited for the slime’s landing.

‘Kihhihi! Just get caught!’

But there was no case of the slime being caught in Sgol’s hand.

Poyong!

The moment touching the palm, jumped up right away before Sgol even grasped and landed on the floor.

‘Fun!’

Poyong! Poyong!

The slime enjoyed the chase.

However, in Sgol’s eyes, it looked like the slime was wildly teasing him.

“...Uaaaaaa!”

Sgol screamed and charged toward the slime on the floor again while reaching out his hand.

Sgol’s meaningless chase that only the slime finds fun started again.
