.......It was over.

　Despite the fierce battle that could be seen as a battle for the survival of this world, all five of the slimes were still alive and well.

　Moreover, all five of them were unharmed.

　If Harto and the others couldn't win, there was no way I could do anything about this slime.

　No, it's not like I...
　No one in this world will be able to beat these guys.


　Two slimes held Yohko, Sitri and the other eight, while the other three were dancing in the center of the arena.

　Are they rejoicing in their victory?

　When they tried to get beyond the barrier...


　The world ends.

　The faces of my wife and sons passed.

　Oh, I wish I could have seen them one last time, once more....

　That's what I was thinking.


"Ah, um........Mr. Johan.....

Hurt!　Are you okay?

　Hurt regained consciousness.

　He had fallen right next to the magical barrier I was in, and he was looking at me with only his face up.

''Slimes are.......strong, aren't they?''

What?

　No, I don't think that was a slime you guys were fighting, for all intents and purposes.

　I was the one who captured them and brought them here, but I'm almost certain that was not a slime.

　I'm so sorry that I brought something weird with me!


Oh, we've lost, haven't we?

　Hurt cries in frustration.

　No, I'm not losing!
　You can't lose!

　If you lose, the world dies!

Not yet.

What?

You're not losing yet!

Mr. Johanan...

"You can still do it!　You're the only ones left!　The survival of the world depends on you, Hurt, and you!

　It may be harsh, but I have to let Hurt and the others fight.

　As far as I know, there is no other person with a status as high as Hurt and his friends who are still satisfied with their five bodies despite fighting like that.

''By the way.......if we lose, can we still fight again?

So, what's the rematch?

Yes. Even if you lose this time, I mean, can you still take the promotion exam again?

A promotional test?　I'll make you take that kind of stuff as many times as you want!

　I'll let you take a promotion exam whenever you want.

　So just take down these slimes!

　When I was thinking about this...


'Well, thank you very much. Then let me try again next week.

　With that, Hurt stood up.

'Eh,'

　Hey, how are you able to stand up?
　No, I need you to stand up...

That's enough for today, I guess.

　Hurt snapped his fingers, and the magical barrier that covered their surroundings disappeared.

　Not good!
　The slime (the ruin of the world) is going out!


　I thought, but the slimes were still dancing in the middle of the arena.

　Without paying any attention to the slime, Hurt started to move.

"Oi, let's go home!

　When Hurt called out to them, his party and the entire party of the female elf named Tina stood up unperturbed.

　And the parties of Yohko and Citry, who had been restrained, were freed from the slime's tentacles.


　What........what?
　What?

　What's happening?

Seira, get everyone back on their feet.
Yes!

　A woman named Seira, I don't know what it was, but she used an awesome recovery spell.

　So, Ryushin's injuries, who was lying on the ground in a ragged state, were healed.

　Also, for some reason, the slimes were included in that recovery area.


''Luca, please repair the arena.
I'll take care of it.

　Even a girl named Luca looks like a dragonoid.

''Resurrection!''

　The scales that dotted her body gradually grew larger and larger, and suddenly she used Resurrection (resurrection magic).

　It was supposed to be a resurrection spell, but──.


What ... what?

　The floor of the arena, which had been heavily gutted and burned to black, had been cleaned up and repaired.

　He was too surprised to speak.

'Seira, Luca. Thanks.

''No. The only person who was damaged was mostly Mr. Ryushin.

Mr. Hurt has kept the magic on the floor, so it wasn't too hard to fix.

　While they were having such an unfamiliar conversation, all of Hurt's friends were on their feet.


'You know you can't let your guard down just because you're a slime, right?

Mmm. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Just because I'm a slime, doesn't mean I'm not a slime!

　Let's go home and have a review. Tina, can you make me a curry today?

I'm on it.

'Whoa!　Tina's curry today?

　The little wolf on Hurt's shoulder suddenly spoke, which freaked me out a bit.

　It's registered as Hurt's errand boy but he can talk.

''I'm looking forward to Tina's curry.''
Ha, go home early!

Okay, okay. Okay, Mr. Johan. I'll see you next week.

　With that, Hurt left the arena with his friends.

''.........''

　Is it possible that I, the only one left, will have to defeat those slimes?

　I was worried about that, but...


　For some reason, the slimes also followed Hurt out of the arena.

''But even so.......your attack is too fast.
"Kupi!
'I mean, isn't the demon robe too skilled?　Can I call you Master, if you don't mind?
"Kippy.
''Mr. Liuxin, this boy is saying, 'Okay.'
Luna, do you know what slime says?
Yes, of course.
That's what I'm talking about.
"Kupi!

　Even though they had been engaged in such a fierce battle just now, the slimes were mingling in the circle of conversation as if they were Hurt's friends from the beginning.

''Well I mean, what do you mean?''

　I don't know what this is all about, but...


　For now, it looks like the world has been saved.
