Chapter 6

Elf (1)

The slime bouncing its soft body tong tong as it crosses the bushes.

‘I want to see!’

What on earth is it that it detected.

The slime expecting what new thing it can see.

The viewers were also curious about what the slime would meet for the first time.

[Gothic Luxury Bone]▶I wonder what Squishy-nim will face.

[Noblesse Fire]▶In a forest like that, at best there are only animals, right?

▶Disgusting humans are also animals ㅇㅇ

[Squishy Queen]▶Just the human guys no! Absolutely!

Those not feeling any particular sense of crisis, those already saying the worst case, and those worrying about everything, etc., the reactions were each different.

The slime that continued moving toward the living being felt with the Detection skill finally came to face the living being it detected directly.

‘Wa!’

In the eyes of the slime for whom everything is wondrous for the first time, a deer was reflected.

▶A wild deer has appeared!

[Noblesse Fire]▶Ah, the kim is really strong.

▶But if it's a slime, isn't a deer also dangerous?

[Just Ram and See]▶If it's the body slam I taught, a mere deer is one shot!

‘Deer? Deer!’

The slime that has now also become interested in the chat window realized that the existence in front of its eyes is a deer while reading the content of the chat window.

‘I want to see more!’

Poyong! Poyong! jumping, the slime approached toward the deer.

The deer that was eating grass with its head lowered saw the light-green round slime approaching it.

The deer, seeing the monster that suddenly approached, stopped eating and stared blankly at the slime.

Deer belong to the lower part of the wild food chain.

A position of being hunted not only by humans but also by monsters.

Therefore, wild animals have further developed the sense of instinctively recognizing those who are a threat to them and those who are not, in order for each to survive.

The deer also had that sense developed.

If the opponent was a goblin, it would have turned its body and kicked with its hind legs the moment it approached.

If it was a monster like a human or orc, it would have run away right away.

However.

‘Waaaa...!’

From the slime that approached the deer now, not a single thing like hostility or killing intent was felt.

It approached poyong poyong and then suddenly stopped nearby and is not moving.

The deer relaxed its guard and lowered its neck again and ate the grass.

Meanwhile, for the slime, the appearance of the deer eating the grass was wondrous and new, and at the same time made it feel a sense of kinship.

Whether it was regrettable to feel that intense emotion alone, it was to the extent of writing it in the chat window.

▷It's eating! Grass! It's eating!

▶Yes, it's a deer eating grass.

▶What is it, why isn't the deer running away?

▶The ones that bounce as soon as they see, what's the matter?

▷I also want to eat!

The slime absorbed the grass right below it as if following the deer.

▶Where did the hot battle with the deer go?

▶Suddenly mukbang started.

▶Ah! Damn!

▶First time seeing an animal that doesn't bounce even if there's a monster next to it.

Usually, if you face an animal, hunting is basic for a monster.

And it's common sense that animals are just busy running away.

Separate from such common sense, the viewers were bewildered by the scene of amicably eating grass.

[Yarn Lady]▶Kyaang! Too cute~

Of course, there were also those who concentrate only on the slime's cuteness regardless of such things.

+++

‘Soft soft~ the appearance of eating grass is really cute~ just like our babies~.’

A continent different from Dersia where the slime is.

In a lush forest of the so-called magic continent Monstopia where powerful monsters mainly inhabit.

A monster whose upper body is the body of a mature human woman but whose lower body is the body of a giant spider.

The highest-ranking individual of the spider-type monsters.

Arachne.

Nickname: Yarn Lady.

She was looking at the slime's broadcast screen while smiling brightly.

Toward such an arachne, several spider-form monsters approached riding spider webs.

All were monsters born by the arachne.

-Oh my, our babies why are you like that? Hungry? Wait a bit~.

With a mother's smile, the arachne brought one of the foods she had wound tightly in advance and stored to her young by manipulating the thread.

The food wound in the thread is a giant bear-form monster of a size that can easily destroy about one village and still have left over.

Red Moon Bear.

However, in this magic continent Monstopia, it was a monster corresponding to prey that easily becomes food.

When the arachne put down the food for her young, more than dozens of small spider-form monsters rushed toward the food in unison.

-Aaaah~ the appearance of eating is also too cute~ our babies~.

In the arachne's eyes, the slime eating grass or her own young eating the Red Moon Bear were nothing more than the same cute appearance of eating ‘food’.

‘The monsters that broadcast are all big and somewhere twisted and not cute~. But Squishy is re~ally special. Huhu, I look forward to how it will grow in the future.’

The arachne who continues watching Squishy's broadcast with such expectations.

On the screen, the appearance of the deer that finished eating the grass raising its head and jumping to another place and the appearance of the slime chasing after it was visible.

‘Kyaaang! The appearance of chasing is also cute~.’

The slime chasing after the deer while jumping poyong poyong.

An appearance that naturally makes a smile just by looking, but that atmosphere could not last long.

Puk!

An arrow that flew from somewhere stuck into the deer's torso.

+++

The scenery outside the cave was extremely interesting and wondrous and surprising for the slime.

Among them, the most wondrous thing for the slime was the deer.

It eats grass and moves like itself, so taking interest in a living being larger than itself was natural in a way.

Therefore, when the deer moved, the slime also moved following.

‘Deer!’

Where is the deer going?

What is it going to do next?

Without any such specific thoughts, the slime just following the moving deer.

The slime enjoyed even seeing that appearance while following behind the deer.

[Noblesse Fire]▶Why is that guy following?

[Gothic Luxury Bone]▶Since it's an animal seeing for the first time, it must be because it's wondrous.

[Just Ram and See]▶Why aren't you doing body slam! It's a perfect target!

▶Tsk tsk wolf personality

▶How can you say such things to cute deer-kun!

▶Today's lunch is deer.

▶Hmm... deer butt view is good?

▶Nim?

Around the time various chats were going back and forth.

Puk!

On the screen that the slime as well as the viewers were seeing, the scene of the deer being hit by an arrow was illuminated.

▶???

▶Uh?

▶De, deeeeeer!

‘What?’

The arrow that suddenly appeared and the deer collapsing right next to it.

The slime stopped moving and could not understand the situation that happened now.

‘Deer, not moving! It collapsed!’

The slime tried to go beside the collapsed deer.

However, then.

▶[Squishy Queen has donated 1 coin.]

▶[Message: Hide right now! Right now! Hide in the bushes or anywhere! Hurry!]

The Slime Queen hurriedly warned toward the slime.

That an arrow flew means that the one who shot it is nearby.

For monsters living on the magic continent it's nothing special, but for the slime it's an existence directly connected to a threat to life.

Because there is a human.

▶From deer healing right to survival lmao

▶Kyaa, this is how it has the taste of watching.

▶Almost said just rush out! ~.

[Yarn Lady]▶No, no, no cute Squishy-nim run away quickly!

[Free Spirit]▶Disgusting humans must really be careful! Run away quickly!

In the slime's crisis, the chats of those who like it and those who worry about the crisis of the rare healing newbie fill the chat window.

Meanwhile, the slime learned through experience so far that the voice heard through messages is not bad for it.

‘Hide!’

As advised through the message, the slime hid its body toward the nearby bushes.

A short while after the slime hid its body.

With the sound of walking jeok jeok, the person who shot the arrow revealed their appearance.

The one who shot the arrow had long grown light-green hair and blue eyes, was wearing green clothes of a color similar to the forest, and had pointed ears.

Seeing that they are holding a bow in one hand, it was obvious to anyone that that pointed ear shot the arrow.

▶Kanf!

▶It was not a disgusting human but a kanf.

▶Not as much as humans but kanf are also disgusting ㅇㅇ

▶Anyway if caught you die lmao

The elf that revealed their appearance looked down at the deer they hit.

“Caught a pretty good one.”

The elf skillfully untied the rope hung on their waist and tied the deer's legs.

And after hanging the deer upside down on a nearby tree, they started bleeding it by cutting the deer's neck with a dagger.

▶Tsk tsk tsk, since ancient times you have to eat the blood together!

▶Those who don't know the fresh taste contained in blood.

▶The blood is a bit wasteful.

▶Deer meat is really tempting.

While comments not understanding other races' eating methods were flowing, the slime observed the deer flowing blood and the elf next to it.

It was startled when the deer was hit by the arrow and collapsed.

However, the slime had no emotion of sadness about the deer being hunted.

Even if it felt a sense of kinship from eating the same grass, the deer was ultimately a living being it had only met for a short time!

On top of that, right now the slime's curiosity about a new living being appearing and the actions that living being is trying to do was greater than the fact that the deer died.

Therefore, the slime's heart was solely one.

‘I want to know!’

I want to know more.

It was the impulse itself that it had from the beginning.

And the slime has a fact it realized in the cave.

Just Ram and See.

The fact it realized when learning body slam from Fenrir.

If you don't know, you can ask!

▷What is that?

The slime's chat that does not use chat much except when exclaiming rose.

Naturally the viewers' interest focused.

▶Ah, is it that?

▶It's a kanf, kanf.

▷Kanf?

▶Kanf is a nickname. Such a guy is called an elf ㅇㅇ

▷Elf?

▶Wait! An elf here? Unlike disgusting humans, guys that live a bit longer and mainly live in the forest that are a bit less disgusting! Mainly using arrows and mainly handling spirits while attacking our monsters, very dog-like...

▶Explanation bug bye

[Squishy Queen]▶Whether elf! Or kanf! Anyway you must not approach!

Seeing various words going back and forth to the slime's question, the slime organized the information given to it.

And.

‘Elf!’

Setting aside the complicated things, it understood only that that living being is an elf.

In the joy of seeing something it didn't know again, the slime trembled burrur.

The bushes made a sound matching the slime's body that trembles pasus.

That sound was very weak.

“...! What?”

The sensitive elf's ears picked up even that sound.

The elf quickly nocked an arrow on the bow and drew the bowstring toward the bushes.

▶Ah, it's damn.

▶It was short but enjoyable.

[Squishy Queen]▶No! Run away right now!

[Just Ram and See]▶Just ram! Ram it!

The chat window where tension rose tightly at the elf's reaction.

Meanwhile, the slime, not even knowing that it is in crisis, activated curiosity looking at the arrow the elf took out.

‘Wa! What is that?’

Things it doesn't know that appear without end.

The slime could not endure its emotions and impulses and jumped out of the bushes poyong!

[Squishy Queen]▶Do, member of my kind! No!

At the slime's action of suddenly jumping out of the bushes, the Slime Queen was astonished.

[Just Ram and See]▶Yes! Are you ramming!

Fenrir thinking that the slime showed courage.

[Noblesse Fire]▶??? Why are you going out?

The fire dragon revealed pure question.

Poyong!

In the heads of most viewers watching the broadcast, the appearance of the slime being pierced by an arrow was drawn.

However.

“Slime?”

Looking at the slime that jumped out of the bushes, the elf rather withdrew the arrow.

“It was nothing special.”

If it was a goblin, it would have pierced the forehead right away, and if it was another animal, it would have shot thinking it as additional prey.

However, what appeared was a slime.

An existence that is not particularly threatening and not much help even if hunted.

The elf rather waved their hand quickly as if bothersome and said to the slime.

“This is my prey, you know? Don't covet it and go over there.”

And at that reaction.

▶lmao.

▶lmao.

▶So funny lmao.

Laughter burst in the chat window.
