Claire (3)
After the girl fainted, the slime thought it should move her to a safe place.
It made the tentacle into a square tray form and lifted her and moved.
6 times the Claire placed on top almost fell while jumping boing boing.
Through trial and error the slime learned the method of moving the tentacle the moment it jumps so vibration doesn’t go to Claire as much as possible.
And when about 10 minutes passed Claire woke up.
▶Went confidently but it’s the opposite lolol.
[Soft Queen]▶It’s a place come for the first time how would my kin know! This is all Kkanjuk’s fault for not informing in advance!
[Free Spirit]▶If informing everything it’s not for Mallang-nim. Exploring on its own is important yy.
▶If knowing everything from the start it’s not fun.
[Just Stick It In and See]▶More than that why haven’t other monsters been visible since earlier! Show the appearance of the stronger headbutt! That way I can advise!
▶Nim why don’t you get close with the kids first?
[Just Stick It In and See]▶Shut uuuuup!!!
▶lololol.
While active conversation was going back and forth in the chat window the slime continued moving in the direction Claire pointed.
“Left from here.”
‘Left!’
Boing!
“Have to go right.”
‘Right!’
“Went too much. A bit left.”
‘A bit left!’
Since it was meeting a human after a month the slime followed Claire’s instructions joyfully.
Meanwhile Claire fell into confusion on top of the slime.
‘Really understanding. This slime is strange.’
Instructing the slime was because of a just in case heart.
Deliberately pointed the wrong direction then instructed the correct direction again.
And the slime changed direction without being wrong even once as instructed.
‘Don’t tell me this slime is the slime Marin was looking for?’
That elf clearly said she is looking for a smart and friendly to people slime.
Is this slime smart?
At least it can understand her instructions.
Is this slime friendly?
For now it tried to save her from monsters several times.
At least it could be considered not hostile.
‘Still can’t let guard down. In the end slime is also a mons...’
It was when thinking that.
The slime suddenly stopped then lowered the tentacle and put Claire down on the floor.
“What?”
The slime put Claire down and put the tentacle away and stood still.
‘Tired?’
-Krukyak!
Then from the grass the C-rank level monster inhabiting the lightning forest.
A monster in monkey form and wearing thick skin like rock on the forehead and fists, rock monkey appeared.
Originally it would detect other monsters and change directions and go out, but the slime decided to go to the village following as Claire instructed so it encountered.
As soon as Claire saw the rock monkey she reflexively got up from the place and prepared to fight.
Only about 10 minutes but thanks to losing consciousness and sleeping stamina had recovered to some extent.
‘If attacking aiming for the body it’s fine. I don’t only receive protection.’
When trying to clench the fist and put strength in the legs.
Booyong!
Buuuuuk!
-Keukieeek!
Without even a gap for Claire to step forward the slime used bounce tackle and sent the rock monkey in one hit.
The rock monkey hit squarely on the body made a sound of the spine breaking thud! while colliding with a tree.
The slime that knocked down the rock monkey in an instant jumped boing boing again and approached Claire and took out 2 tentacles.
Pop!
And made the tentacles into soft boards.
▶Look at the awkward one lolol.
▶Ack lolol. Don’t pose and just ride!
▶Don’t say residual words and ride Mallang! Furry!!!
The appearance of Claire flustered at losing the opponent to the slime as soon as taking a stance was also a good sight for the viewers.
Claire being awkward didn’t end with once.
3 times until coming out of the forest.
The slime put Claire down and dealt with the monsters.
In the middle Claire also got competitive and tried to jump out herself as soon as a monster appeared, but no matter how trying to move quickly the slime moved first and dealt with the monster.
Possible because using detection it accurately knows the position the monster will come out so there was no choice, but there was no way Claire could know that reason.

After Amelia and Paulen finished the report, the Holy City immediately formed a lich investigation team.
The investigation target was of course rumors about the lich.
Of course at the request of the next Saintess Amelia the search for the slime seen at the great church also proceeded together.
And while the investigation proceeded Paulen burned the will to become stronger and devoted to training.
“Huup! Huup! Huup! Huup! Muscles! Have to train muscles more!”
Amelia also with the heart of not wanting to experience the same thing as last time, after the regular schedule ended headed to the holy law training ground and actively honed her own skill.
“Still lacking. Have to contain a bit more holy power in one place...”
“Amelia-nim, amazing.”
“While unfolding such an amazing holy law the desire to improve is amazing...!”
Unintentionally Amelia obtained the respect of the believers who were at the same training ground.
And Gracie who accompanied even to the Holy City trip.
“Nothing... to do!”
Was placed in a very awkward situation in her own room the great church prepared.
Gracie thought if coming to the Holy City she would also directly run around and find the slime.
But the situation didn’t go as Gracie thought.
Since the investigation of the lich or slime was separately formed and sent an investigation team from the Holy City, they said there was no need for Gracie to directly step forward from the great church.
Moreover Gracie not only received thanks for drawing the accurate lich picture, but became in the position of being treated saying since a guest of the Saintess can’t cause trouble.
“The facilities will be lacking, but Gracie-nim please do your own research at the great church.”
Heard such words.
But those words were words extremely frustrating for Gracie.
If Gracie was a natural mage she would have devoted time to self-polishing.
But Gracie was a magic tool mage.
Moreover a mage who switched to magic tool mage because she realized her own limits.
At the great church there aren’t as vast magic tools as Gracie’s house, and at the Holy City there are no magic tool makers as excellent as the Magic Tower.
In the end, what Gracie could do was only the repetition of magic use already familiar to the point of being familiar.
And that limited to using magic tools that use her own mana, that must not carelessly waste magic stones.
‘I’m different from the Paladin who likes muscles or the Saintess still full of potential! Originally!’
Even if saying research comfortably.
‘There is no slime that can do my research!’
There was not a single thing worth researching inside the great church.
Because even if researching she couldn’t set up her own workshop inside the great church.
Thus Gracie had no choice but to vaguely spend time at the great church for 5 days.
The thing that can be said to be consolation at least.
‘Recently skin seems to have gotten better. Hair too.’
One month of carriage movement and life at the great church.
If saying the common point of the two it was that she came to live a regular life.
Most of the mages staying at the Magic Tower had irregular life as everyday.
And that was the same for Gracie but until completing the paper the irregular life reached the extreme.
Of course staying up one or two nights to properly complete the paper and the sleeping time was also not fixed.
Sometimes 4 hours sometimes 6 hours.
When waking up in the middle and hard to sleep again there were many times not even sleeping 3 hours.
Of course living with potions that give awakening effect in the mouth.
When fatigue piles up too much that even potions don’t work only then sleeps about 8 hours.
But of course in the carriage and even after coming to the great church Gracie repeated sleeping and waking matching the people whose correct life became a habit, Amelia, Paulen, and the Holy City’s believers etc.
With steady and regular sleep and also cutting the drugs with awakening effect Gracie’s body naturally became healthier and healthier.
That result was precisely the change in skin and hair.
Luster flowed on the rough skin and the disheveled hair felt vitality.
Rather the state of herself that became even healthier spurred Gracie’s guilt.
‘Like this it’s not doing a search but just came for tourism!’
Even though she went to Amelia and Paulen and said let’s find the slime she herself was staying still at the great church so her heart wasn’t at ease.
It was such a time.
Knock knock knock.
Someone knocked on the door.
“Who is it?”
When Gracie opened the door and confirmed a female believer was bowing her head.
“Excuse me. Gracie-nim, Saintess Fresia is looking for you.”
“Yes? Saintess Fresia?”
+++
“Thank you for coming, Gracie.”
“A, no! Rather I’m honored to meet Saintess Fresia again!”
Gracie who entered Fresia’s room was full of tension.
That was because the opponent before the eyes is one of the legendary heroes.
The healing Saintess Fresia.
The companion of the Heavenly Law mage Ventus Frail she respects.
5 days ago, when first seeing it was inside the conference room where the high priests were also there.
But now facing faces in Fresia’s room she couldn’t help but be tense.
“But I, what did you call me for?”
“I wanted to have a conversation for a moment. I heard you’ve been continuing to be in the room recently. Was this place uncomfortable by any chance?”
“A, no! Not at all! Very comfortable and good! Rather too good so skin also got better or something~ ha, hahaha!”
“Huhu, that’s fortunate.”
“Yes! Fortunate and more! Rather staying still is rather because I’m lacking!”
“Lacking?”
“Yes yes! Lacking and more! Compared to the ancestor Ventus Frail-nim I’m too lacking!”
Because too tense Gracie started talking about herself ramblingly.
Compared to Ventus Frail talent is far lacking.
So supplementing skill in the way of utilizing magic tools.
As she continued talking about herself the guilt piled while at the great church also mixed and Gracie’s inferiority complex and sense of powerlessness she had from the past began to creep out.
“Hahaha! Compared to the really great ancestor someone like me...”
“That’s not it.”
Fresia gently held Gracie’s hand and shook her head.
“Don’t belittle yourself, Gracie. You are a mage who will become excellent and great.”
“Yes? But I without magic tools...”
“Even knowing your own limits you didn’t stop your steps and found a new path called magic tools right? Be proud of the path you chose yourself.”
“F, Fresia Saintess...!”
Gracie looked like a halo was shining behind Fresia’s head.
“Moreover Ventus. He was great but not a person perfect in everything. Unexpectedly he was a cute person.”
“Yes? A, ancestor?”
“Want to hear?”
“Yes!”
To be able to hear the story of the respected ancestor directly from Fresia who was a companion!
She didn’t want to miss this kind of opportunity.
“Ah, but the reason you called me in the end...”
“I’ll say that later.”
