New Meeting (2)

The leader of the bandit group who returned from hunting with Hawein was flustered at the scene unfolded before his eyes.

“What is this doing again?”

“Heek! Heek! Heek!”

Poyong! Poyong!

Sgol was stretched out in a large character gasping roughly, and the slime was jumping on Def’s head as if enjoying.

“Ah, hyung-nim, Hawein. Came? Hehe, by any chance caught a deer?”

At Def’s question expecting dinner, the man pointed at Hawein holding the prey behind.

“Caught a rabbit.”

“Rabbit...”

Hawein laughed gloomily toward the disappointed Def.

“Heh, catching even a rabbit is something. You can’t even catch a rabbit.”

“But if deer, eat a lot...”

“Kheup, pig.”

“Don’t complain, Def. More than that, explain what happened.”

“Yes, hyung-nim. That is...”

Def said the matters that happened while the two went hunting.

Hearing that explanation, the two looked at Sgol with absurd gazes.

“Sgol, did you lose to the slime?”

“Kheup! Puh! W, weaker than slime, kheup!”

“Heek! Heek! Didn’t lose, hyung-nim! Hawein! Daring to laugh at me!”

“But lost.”

“Didn’t lose!”

The bandit leader asked Def.

“By the way, why is it on your head?”

“Uh... d, don’t know. Hehe, seems likes the top of my head.”

Poyong!

“Doesn’t fall well.”

‘Agile to the extent Sgol can’t catch...’

Sgol who couldn’t even catch the slime and stretched out in a large character looks pathetic, but the bandit leader knew Sgol’s skill well.

If Sgol, catching an ordinary slime should be normal.

Even if the body is small, moving quickly was Sgol’s specialty.

A slime that has unexpected agility yet reveals friendliness to people to the extent of playing on Def’s head.

‘This will really become money?’

When introducing a product, having a specialty worth boasting was natural for the body price to rise.

The bandit group immediately entered meal preparation with the caught rabbit.

Prepared the caught rabbit and skewered it on skewers made by carving appropriate branches and grilled it on fire.

‘Grilled rabbit!’

The slime looked at the grilled rabbit grilling sizzling.

The slime that continuously ate high-class and nutrient-filled food in the mansion.

But that did not mean coming to avoid or dislike relatively less hand-entered and less delicious food like grilled rabbit.

Even if obtained taste not evaluating only by nutrients, the slime is a slime.

In the end, could eat anything well without disliking.

When the grilled rabbit was fully cooked, the bandits each lifted one skewer and tore the rabbit.

The bandits silently chewing the rabbit crunching.

‘I also want to eat!’

The slime jumped poyong poyong around Def.

“Why, why? By any chance want to eat this?”

‘Yeah!’

Poyong!

“Ah, no. This is mine.”

When Def refused, the slime stopped jumping and tilted its body slightly downward.

That appearance looked like lowering the head as if deflated.

“Uh... instead want to eat this?”

Def took out one fruit from the pocket containing fruits and placed it in front of the slime.

‘Fruit!’

When passing the blue elf forest, ate fallen fruits besides rabbits or deer so the slime immediately rode on the fruit and absorbed.

“Wa, slimes eat like this.”

“Hey! This fool! Why giving fruit to this damn slime and making a fuss!”

Sgol whose anger is not resolved at the fact of losing to the slime stood up from the spot and threw a fit at Def.

“But only we eat rabbit and s, slime eats nothing so looks hungry.”

“What hungry! Slime can just eat grass grown nearby! On top of that, already picked all fruits nearby so to pick again have to walk long!”

“Puhup, anyway fruit picking is Def. You’re small so can’t even pick.”

“Shut up!”

“Noisy, Sgol. Just eat quietly.”

“So, sorry. Hyung-nim.”

Sgol who was throwing a fit sat down right away at the leader’s words.

“Def. Can give more fruit to the slime. But replenish again tomorrow.”

“Yes, hyung-nim. S, slime. Give one more?”

Poyong!

The slime ate 3 fruits obtained from Def.

▶Human bastard doesn’t know, hurry give ‘steak’!

▶Ack lmao not a big human nest lmao

▶One rabbit per guy lmao I eat better.

The viewers who were enjoying the ridiculous appearance of Sgol who can’t catch the slime, now were enjoying the broadcast by ridiculing the meal of the bandit group differing from the mansion.

+++

Tadak tadak.

In the dark night, only the bonfire was burning while emitting light.

Since an area with no monsters around besides wild animals, the bandit group only lit a bonfire and all fell asleep.

In the midst of that, Def woke from sleep and raised his body.

‘Hungry.’

Def whose belly is not filled with only one rabbit fitting the large body ended up waking from sleep due to hunger while sleeping.

Def sitting on the floor while raising his body.

Then the slime that was sleeping on Def’s belly ended up rolling and falling from the belly.

‘?’

Suddenly rolling and falling, the slime also naturally woke from sleep.

Poyong!

“Ah, woke? Sorry.”

After apologizing to the slime, the hunger that came again made Def’s belly rumble!

“Ugh.”

Def stroked his plump belly and muttered small.

“Hungry... want to eat meat.”

A very small mutter.

But that voice reached the slime.

‘Hungry? Must not be hungry!’

The slime that knows how hard and painful being hungry is.

Therefore, since Def who gave it fruit says hungry, the slime wanted to resolve that.

Poyong! Poyong!

Looking at the slime that suddenly started jumping, Def tilted his head.

“Uh? You also by any chance hungry? Because ate only fruit?”

Filling the hunger was sufficient with only the fruit Def gave, but there was no way Def would know that.

Poyong! Poyong!

The slime separated a bit from Def and then used Detection.

‘Found!’

The slime that detected a deer nearby headed that way.

“Uh? Uh, where going.”

‘This way! This way!’

The slime stopped for a moment and jumped in place while maintaining distance from Def.

“Telling to follow?”

‘Yeah!’

Poyong!

Words did not communicate but Def felt as if the slime is calling him.

“Wa, wait a bit.”

Def stood up from the spot and rummaged the luggage bundle.

“Surely was here... ah, found.”

What Def took out from the luggage bundle was a magic stone lantern.

A magic tool that emits light by absorbing magic power if putting a magic stone in the lower part.

Putting one of the remaining magic stones in the luggage bundle and shaking slightly, a subtle light sprayed from the lantern.

Def held the lantern and approached the slime.

‘It’s a lantern!’

The slime was glad that a thing it knows came out.

Had seen several times servants carrying when wandering inside the mansion late at night.

The slime moved little by little in the direction the deer is detected when Def approaches close.

“Go, go together.”

Def held the magic stone lantern and followed behind the slime.

‘Where is it going?’

Was following the slime vaguely, but curious about the destination.

‘Wanted to eat more fruit? There were 3 more in the luggage pocket.’

Def who recalled the slime eating fruit thought whether bringing him to pick more fruit.

‘If fruit, have to pick a lot.’

Def thinking of filling the insufficient belly with fruit at night and also newly replenishing since hungry.

Though suspicion of how the slime knows where the fruit is could arise, Def did not think complicatedly.

In the middle of such thoughts.

Poyong! Poyong! Poyong!

The slime suddenly raised the moving speed.

“Why? G, go slowly!”

Def hurriedly following the slime that suddenly raises speed.

And at the end of following the slime.

-Krrrr!

There were 2 wolves biting the deer’s neck and legs crunching.

‘W, wolf! What to do!’

Seeing the wolf, Def hurriedly drew the sword at his waist.

Poyong!

Meanwhile, the slime liked looking at the wolves and jumped.

‘Meat! Increased!’

The reason the slime suddenly sped up was simple.

Was tracking while continuously detecting the deer but was attacked by 2 living beings that suddenly appeared.

And the identity of the living being revealed upon arriving by raising speed.

The slime that discovered 2 wolves far from fearing rejoiced that edible ‘meat’ increased.

Poyong! Poyong!

The slime immediately approached toward the wolves.

“Ah! D, dangerous! Slime!”

Def hurriedly shouted looking at the slime going close toward the wolves.

-Krrrr!

The wolves that were about to eat the just hunted deer revealed teeth and threatened toward the slime that suddenly appeared.

Trying to eat but a slime that looks insignificant suddenly appears. From the wolves’ standpoint, could not help but be irritated.

And.

Poyoyong!

The slime fed Bounce Tackle toward one of the wolves growling toward itself.

Beeeeok!

An attack that can collapse a deer in one shot hit the wolf’s jaw.

With the sound of the jawbone breaking, the wolf’s body flipped.

A wolf that collapses in just one shot without even convulsing.

“Uh!?”

Not only Def who saw that scene, but also the closest wolf widened eyes and looked at the slime.

And the remaining one wolf that felt the threat of life turned its body and tried to run away right away.

Poyoyong!

Beeeeok!

The slime using Bounce Tackle was even faster.

The slime that hit the jaw as soon as landing before the wolf even fully turned its body.

The remaining one wolf also collapsed with the jaw broken.

Until both 2 wolves collapsed, not even 10 seconds passed.

An unbelievable scene done in a short time.

Def also blinked eyes with suspicion whether this is real or fake.

But what is visible in the eyes did not change at all.

Poyong! Poyong!

‘Meat! Appeared!’

The slime approached Def.

If like other ordinary people, could feel caution or fear looking at the slime that took care of 2 wolves at once.

But.

“A, amazing.”

Def was pure compared to the body so pure admiration popped out rather than fear.

‘Amazing!’

The slime whose mood improved at Def’s praise alternately jumped on the dead wolf and deer.

‘Meat!’

With only that, Def understood what the slime is trying to convey.

Rumble.

“Ah!”

Setting aside the slime taking care of 2 wolves at once, right now in front of the eyes there were 3 animals that can be eaten if prepared.

One deer and two wolves.

The rumbling belly informed Def the next action.

“Meat.”

‘Meat!’

Def dragged the deer and wolves and returned to the hideout.

“He, hehehe. Meat. Thank you, slime.”

Poyong! Poyong!

Def thanked the slime while grinning at the thought of grilling and eating meat.

And after arriving at the hideout, Def placed the deer and wolves nearby and shook the sleeping leader.

“Hyung-nim, please wake up.”

“Uuum... what.”

“L, look at this.”

“What to look... huh?”

In the vision of the leader who woke rubbing eyes, 2 dead wolves and a deer entered.

“Could it be you caught?”

The leader looking at Def as if unexpected.

Did not believe that Def who is not agile even if strong fitting the body caught this much prey.

Def shook his head while smiling purely.

“No, not me...”

‘Seems went together with Hawein or Sgol. Then right.’

“The slime caught!”

“What?”
