Workshop Life (6)

For the slime, the secret workshop life together with Kkanjuk was fun and stimulating in its own way.

Tasting the meat with new ‘taste’, new ‘nutrients’ that Kkanjuk brought every meal time was different.

By the standards of the sense of taste obtained while growing it couldn’t compare to the food eaten at the Rudendion mansion, but the slime could enjoy Kkanjuk’s food with just nutrients.

The old stories Kkanjuk told were also interesting and fun.

There were words that weren’t understood in the middle, but if asked to Kkanjuk he kindly answered.

Also when sparring differently from Paulen Kkanjuk summoned golems, or shot magic and faced in various ways.

No matter how full of curiosity the slime was it could live without feeling boredom.

However that too had a limit of one month.

Even when at the Rudendion count mansion, even when living at the great church.

The slime was one whose heart of wanting to go outside and encounter new things grew after about 1~2 weeks.

Rather the fact that there were no words for a month in Kkanjuk’s secret workshop that can be said to be much narrower than the mansion or great church was because the stimulation Kkanjuk gave filled the slime’s curiosity in the meantime.

[Mallang]▶Want to go out!

Now the secret workshop life reached a situation where it could no longer fill the slime’s curiosity, and the slime appealed with chat that it wants to go out.

▶Finally going out?

▶It held out long lolol.

[Noblesse Fire]▶I was wondering when it would say.

Meanwhile Kkanjuk’s heart was complicated.

In terms of period it’s now one month.

The time when Gracie or Paulen would arrive at the Holy City.

If possible it was better to stay one more month in Kkanjuk’s secret workshop like first planned.

However the heart of wanting to grant the request of the very praiseworthy and cute slime that lived together for a month billowed up in Kkanjuk’s heart.

‘But parting with Mallang-nim...!’

On the other hand the fact that the cozy secret workshop life together with the slime ends was too regrettable.

The heart of wanting to grant the request of the praiseworthy and cute slime and at the same time the heart of not wanting to separate from the slime separate from safety arose so the heart couldn’t help but be complicated.

▷Mallang-nim, want to go out?

[Mallang]▶Want to go out!

At Kkanjuk’s question the slime answered right away.

[Mallang]▶Kkanjuk also go out together!

▷Me too?

[Mallang]▶Yes! If go out together! Fun!

From the slime’s experience, going out for a walk together with someone was always an enjoyable and fun experience.

Therefore the slime purely thought that wandering around together with Kkanjuk would surely be fun.

[Soft Queen]▶You, you this guy Kkanjuk! How dare you try to go for a walk with my kin before me!

▶Nim, a bit ugly?

▶Anyway Mallang’s first walk was taken by humans right?

▶Ah lolol monsters are the first lolol.

[Soft Queen]▶Everyone shut up!

Hearing the slime’s proposal Kkanjuk’s chest welled up.

But even so Kkanjuk couldn’t go outside together with Mallang.

Because, Kkanjuk is a lich.

The unique death aura a lich emits even ordinary people notice.

Above all if continuing to be together with himself rather the slime is also judged dangerous and might be attacked.

If sending the slime outside there was no choice but to send it alone as originally planned.

▷Mallang-nim, I can’t go together.

[Mallang]▶Why?

Kkanjuk explained to Mallang the reason he can’t go out.

Humans are very scared of him and will attack.

So he must not carelessly go outside.

If going out, Mallang has to go out alone.

[Mallang]▶I see...

The slime drooped its body forward and was very regretful.

It wasn’t that it couldn’t completely understand Kkanjuk’s words.

In the slime’s memory there was the appearance of Amelia and Paulen, and Gracie being tense at Kkanjuk’s appearance last time.

At the time it couldn’t understand why they were so scared.

But while hearing the black dragon subjugation journey story Kkanjuk directly told, the slime obtained more knowledge than just reading biographies.

The most representative if picking was knowledge about types of monsters.

Judging based on that knowledge Kkanjuk who became a monster from human was undead.

Kkanjuk also said he caught many undead together with companions on the journey in the past.

Then humans can attack Kkanjuk who became undead.

Since the slime could think that much it didn’t throw a tantrum upon hearing Kkanjuk’s explanation.

After being dejected once, the slime immediately looked at Kkanjuk and asked.

[Mallang]▶Then when do I go out? Want to go out!

▶Ack lolol. Quick cutting losses lolol.

▶If can’t go together have to go out alone lolol.

[Just Stick It In and See]▶Yes! Leave Kkanjuk and quickly go and test the developed headbutt on other guys too! That bastard blocks every day so it’s bland!

[Thread Lady]▶I also thought the flattened Mallang-nim was cute and worth seeing~.

[Soft Queen]▶If going out going out quickly is good! Not even a human how long does my kin have to clean Kkanjuk’s nest!

Among the viewers those who want to enjoy new content, and those who dislike seeing the slime continuing to be in the same place expressed agreeing opinions on the slime’s outing.

Of course Kkanjuk had no intention of immediately sending it out just because the viewers agreed with the slime’s opinion.

Above all the important thing was the slime’s safety.

Therefore.

▷If Mallang-nim wants to go out I’ll send it out.

[Mallang]▶Wow!

▷But before that after safety confirmation ends I’ll send it out.

Kkanjuk first decided to grasp the current situation.

[Mallang]▶Confirmation?

▷Yy, I’ll go check if outside is safe now and come. Please wait.

[Mallang]▶Yes!

[Noblesse Fire]▶Hey! If you go outside the broadcast cuts! During that don’t watch...

Kkanjuk immediately turned off the broadcast and used warp magic to move outside the secret workshop.

+++

After moving outside, Kkanjuk immediately cast detection magic and searched for surrounding animals.

‘Good, this guy should do.’

The moment he discovered the desired animal Kkanjuk who immediately moved to where the animal was used magic and bound the animal he was looking for.

A bird.

Chirp! Chirp chirp!

At the existence emitting death aura that suddenly appeared the bird instinctively felt fear and tried to thrash.

However the bird bound with magic couldn’t move at all and only made sounds.

Kkanjuk spread his hand bone and cast domination magic toward the bird.

Uuuuuung!

When the light emitted from the magic circle shone on the bird the bird that was chirping stopped crying.

At this moment, the bird became Kkanjuk’s temporary dominated beast.

‘Where is the vision... good, connecting well. Hearing is also no problem.’

Having finished the sense sharing test through the dominated beast Kkanjuk used warp again and moved to the nearby forest of a village relatively close to the Holy City.

‘Go.’

According to Kkanjuk’s command the bird flapped its wings and flew toward the village.

Since made into a dominated beast Kkanjuk could immediately know where the bird is.

And the moment the bird arrived at the village Kkanjuk shared the senses of vision and hearing and explored the village’s atmosphere.

“Hey, buy some bread on the way!”

“So I’m saying. The noona I saw then was really killing it?”

“Dad! Mom is calling!”

Everyday conversations were transmitted to Kkanjuk through the bird.

Conversations of peaceful village people no matter who listens.

But Kkanjuk didn’t immediately turn the bird back and made it move here and there in the village and eavesdropped on conversations.

And when he moved the bird near the village’s tavern.

“Come to think of it did you hear? That a lich appeared at the Magic Tower.”

‘This is it.’

Stopping the bird Kkanjuk eavesdropped on the conversation.

“Of course. The next Saintess and Paladin were also at the place.”

‘As expected the news was conveyed even to the village near the Holy City.’

“To think a lich only heard in legends appeared.”

“Who says no. But fortunately the Saintess and Paladin drove it out.”

‘What?’

“But the Magic Tower is in big trouble. They fought the lich together with the Saintess and Paladin, but they were greatly injured by the lich’s attack.”

“How severe it is they’re continuing to lie in bed unable to get up.”

‘Heh.’

Kkanjuk was dumbfounded.

No matter how rumors easily change and get exaggerated to think it would change this much.

‘Come back.’

Kkanjuk called the bird back and used warp and this time moved to a village close to the Magic Tower.

Kkanjuk sending the bird to the village the same and gathering rumors.

And the result was not much different from the story heard near the Holy City.

Just in case he warped near other villages and listened to people’s stories through the bird, but the content was the same.

‘How can this be... Not only exaggerated this much but not a single story about Mallang? Moreover nothing about Gracie at all!’

It was a level of throwing away the accuracy of rumors.

To the point that Kkanjuk worrying what if bad rumors or interest go to the slime became foolish!

However it was an unavoidable matter.

The positions the figures at the place held were too amazing for ordinary people.

Lich, Magic Tower Lord, Saintess, Paladin were in one place no less.

But the Magic Tower Lord collapsed and the lich withdrew.

Ordinary people who only heard this fact naturally imagined Ah! The Magic Tower Lord collapsed while fighting the lich! and that imagination spread as rumor.

The slime that was together or Gracie who was only in the position of the grandniece of the Heavenly Law mage didn’t even receive interest.

‘...’

Kkanjuk felt an inexplicable bitterness.

For more accurate verification he wants to fly the dominated beast directly to the Magic Tower or Holy City, but at the Magic Tower there was of course defense against eavesdropping using dominated beasts.

The Holy City also can hear rumors of ordinary streets but infiltrating a dominated beast into the great church was a reckless method.

Kkanjuk moved to the secret workshop entrance again, then released the domination magic and released the bird.

And Kkanjuk who returned to the secret workshop conveyed the judgment to the slime through flame speech.

[Mallang-nim, it seems okay to go outside now.]

‘Wow!’

Boing! Boing! Boing!

The slime was very excited at the permission that it can finally go outside and jumped in place several times.

Seeing the lively appearance of the slime is happy, but still parting with the slime was regrettable.

[Going out tomorrow would be good.]

‘Yes!’

Affirming Kkanjuk’s words the slime jumped boing! once.

Kkanjuk turned on the broadcast and as soon as some viewers entered he immediately declared.

▷Decided to send Mallang-nim tomorrow.

[Noblesse Fire]▶It’s not lying right?

▷Why would I lie with this kind of thing?

▶Real lolol.

▶Kkanjuk didn’t get twisted like an old fogey that much yy.

[Noblesse Fire]▶What is this bastard again!

Since it was said the slime is going out the slime queen immediately said to Kkanjuk.

[Soft Queen]▶Even if outside where are you planning to send my kin, Kkanjuk! If you leave it in a dangerous place I won’t leave you alone!

[Thread Lady]▶That’s right, the cute Mallang-nim has to be in a safe place!

[Just Stick It In and See]▶No! A place with guys worth facing moderately is better!

▶Anyway Mallang will wander around so anywhere is fine right?

▶Have to see it directly hunting and crushing not sparring to be fun.

[Gothic Luxury Bone]▶Mallang-nim would also want to test its own skill.

In the chat window where various opinions were coming out Kkanjuk firmly said.

▷I’ll let Mallang-nim decide that.

Saying so Kkanjuk took out the map stored in the display stand of the secret workshop and unfolded it in front of the slime and asked.

▷Mallang-nim, where do you want to go?
