A slime that eats magic?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Rose stares at Sol, the small black slime in front of him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It doesn't seem to have any ...... tame markings on it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Sol didn't want to do it, so I didn't do it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm sure you've heard of the "...... not attacking people when they don't have tames?　Did you let them name it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Sol attacks people?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

And I've given it a name, but ......?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, yes. Slime was a demon, wasn't it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Rose's words reminded me that slime was a demon, too.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

And it is a demon that attacks people.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I had forgotten all about that since I met Sola.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Let's see. It's a slime, but Sol has some intelligence, so it's okay. Sol told me I could give it a name, too.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Demons of low intelligence have a habit of attacking people when they encounter them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Slimes also usually have low intelligence and attack people as soon as they encounter them in the forest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

However, since slimes are very weak, they are also demons that can be defeated if a little magic is used.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I cannot use magic, so when I started traveling, I would run away as soon as I saw one.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Come to think of it, I stopped encountering slimes around the time I tamed Sora.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I wonder why?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I see. The name Sol sounds beautiful."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Phew."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Sol squeals happily and pulls and shivers at Rose's words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'............ Ivy's friends have a distinctive purr, don't they?'

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Please don't say that.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's not that I collect them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Phew!　Phew!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hmm?"　Are you mad at me?　I'm sorry, it's not funny. It's just a cute little purr.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Phew~!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hahahaha. You are certainly quite intelligent. Well, Ivy's friends are all intelligent demons, so it won't be strange to have one more.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Certainly, I can converse normally with both Sola and Flem.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Come to think of it, I remember being surprised about that when I met Mr. Druid.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

...... Well, is it unusual to be able to have a conversation?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I've been having normal conversations every day as a matter of course, so I don't know when this became the norm.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Not only is what you digest rare, but the conversation is also rare?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'll have to remember it well so I don't forget.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'll have to make sure I don't forget it. If you look closely, you can see that it is not completely black. Is it translucent?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Indeed, Sol looks pitch black at a quick glance, but upon closer inspection, it is semi-transparent.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Like Sola and the others, its body is transparent.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

And he is so small. Are you going to grow up?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No, he looks like an adult at this size.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes," he said. There is such a small slime! We have to be careful that no one sees them."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was told sincerity.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What you're looking for is an item that allows you to gather magic power and then freely emit that magic, right?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, sir. Is there?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Rose gives a difficult look at the druid's question.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Even if there were, I wouldn't sell it. It would be a state controlled item."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

State control?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Accumulating magical power is a very dangerous act," he said. The magic power gathered can go out of control."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, I was right.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Druid seemed to have expected it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Does magical power go out of control when it gathers?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

There are times when magical forces collide with each other and become unstable. In the past, it has been recorded that a village disappeared because of runaway magic power. That is why items that collect magic power are strictly controlled. Some say they are sealed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't think we can rely on items.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We'll just have to find another way.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

But it's tricky. Magic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Rose also worried with me, but I still didn't have an answer.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'll just have to work hard and go to the dumping ground for this one.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I gave him the magic stone for today, thanked him, and returned to the inn.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I guess I'll just have to keep going to the dump until the snow prevents me from going to the forest."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm not sure I'm going to be able to do it. I'll do my best.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Shall I discuss with Sol when we get back to the inn what to do if we can't go?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I think it would be better if you did. I might have to put up with you for a bit."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

If they are not ready, will they start saying they will live in the forest?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

If Sol himself wants to do this, I would like to make it happen, but I'm very worried.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

But if we can't prepare food, we have no choice.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, there he is!　Mr. Druid, Ivy."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I heard my name called in front of the inn, and when I looked, Mr. Priagirmas came running toward me, waving his hand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hello."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hello. I'm sorry, I just wanted to talk to you for a minute."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I nod my head at Mr. Priagirmas' words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Since he is the head of the guild, he should have contacted me and I would have come out to see him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Why did he come all the way here?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Even though there is a possibility that he might not be at the inn.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Shall we head to the guild?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No, sir. Do you have something to do in the woods tomorrow?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Tomorrow?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm going because of Sol's dinner, but what is it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I have, but why?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The druid is also puzzled.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Can't I go with you?　In doing so, may I borrow Lord Ciel for a moment?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

...... Lord Ciel?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When did we start calling them that?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ahhh, shall we talk in my room?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I nodded my head in agreement with the druid's suggestion.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is it okay?　I'm sorry to have disturbed you."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't know why he asked me with a huge smile on his face.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes. Ivy's okay with that, right?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm not sure. I think it's better if we talk slowly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I would like to know why you called Ciel to come to Tono, and also why you want to go to the forest with us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't think we can just stand here and talk about it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Thank you."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I tilt my head at Mr. Priagilmus' attitude.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I wonder.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He looks like he's blown it out of the water and is showing a different attitude than he has in the past.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I wonder what happened?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I enter the inn with Mr. Priagirmas, wondering.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ms. Dora greeted me with a surprised expression.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'After the Commander, Guilmouth?'

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Come to think of it, I don't remember Commander Tableau coming here either.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Druid chuckled at Dora's question.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'I'm sorry, I was just interrupting to have a word with you both.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Priagirmas bowed to Ms. Dora.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'No, that's fine. Ah~ Guilmouth, would you like to have dinner?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'I would love to, but I have work to do.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I knew you came during busy times.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I see."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

After having a few sweets made by Mr. Salifa, I return to my room.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Upon entering the room, Mr. Priagirmas looks around the room happily.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I can feel the atmosphere of excitement, but why?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'll make you some tea. Please sit down."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Thank you."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We already know about Sola and the others, so we let Sola and the others out of the bag.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Finally, I take Sol out and put the drool-stained towel in the basket that holds the dirty stuff.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Huh?"　The boy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ah!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I did it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I hadn't told Sol yet.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, he's my new friend. His name is Sol.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's black. And it's small. Is it a child slime?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No, he's an adult.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

.................. I see."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Priagirmas stares at Sol.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

A little uneasy, he prepares a cup of tea and puts it on the desk.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Thank you. I was wondering, you don't seem to have any tame marks on you.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Well, as we discussed, no taming was done.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... after discussion...... Well, that's what Ivy is all about."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Huh?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Why is there such a twinkle in their eyes?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I look at Mr. Druid for my first response.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He sees Mr. Priagilmus' reaction and starts laughing.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Why?
