We decided to make the slimes feel more comfortable by preparing a huge feast. We prepared all kinds of tasty meals. And they were really hungry. After not having eaten for years, they were shy at first, but the hunger won over and they started devouring everything. They would place their entire bodies over food and slowly dissolve it all.

As they ate and enjoyed the food, they made cute little noises. They were adorably dangerous beings. The type you wanted to touch, squeeze and give little kisses over their foreheads. But they were also made of acid, so its better to not get too touchy with them, or you might risk getting burned by a surprise acid spit.

However, they were very friendly! Once they ate a lot and felt much better, they approached us and started looking at us and making cute noises. Some tried snatching our food but were unable each time. Instead, we offered it to them in friendly terms. Slowly, we were able to get along better.

Once the night came, we were all friends. The Slimes adapted very quickly to our presence and looked less wary of us. With Pyuku's guidance, and words, they learned to understand us to an extent. And finally understood that we were their saviors. Eventually, they asked Pyuku for our leader, mom, and they thanked her in their dialect.

"Gubo, gu, gabo gah! Guuh, kyu." The largest of the slimes, being red colored and almost a meter of height, spoke to mother.

"He says he's very grateful for having both saved them, healed them, and feed them." Pyuku explained my mother. "They apologize for being afraid. Their tribe hasn't interacted with other intelligent people in thousands of years."

"I see." My mother nodded. "It's all good. I'm glad we can get along. Please, consider coming to our city. I will make everything I can to protect you and your kin and get you a good home. It might be hard at the beginning, but my people are different. They accept others very quickly."

Pyuku explained it to them. The slimes made an uproar of comments we couldn't understand. Most sounded excited, but there were a few ones that doubted, and I could hear were worried. Their leader, which I will call Red Slime Chief, was only thinking after hearing Pyuku's translation.

"Gubo, gah. Guu." He told Pyuku.

"Really? T-Thank you so much!" Pyuku got really happy. "He says they'll come along! He said the least they can do to repay for having saved their lives was trusting you."

"Thank you." My mother smiled, as she gifted the chief a little magic jewel. "This is a jewel from a Sunstone Plateau Goat. Or well, a piece of their magic crystal. This is a little gift for you. I hope we can get along well."

The Red Slime Chief timidly accepted the gift, and then touched it and slowly dissolved it, absorbing it. His Aura grew slightly stronger, as I felt mana rushing through him. But unlike Pyuku, they were unable to grow stronger.

"Guuuuh!" However, he was very happy, finding this gift incredibly delicious.

Just like that, we made a quick alliance between us and the slimes. And after discussing things, they decided to come along with us over a golem instead. They said the shadows were too scary, and they preferred to feel the wind and see the sun and the moon at day and night.

"Then let's get this done with." Nepheline touched the ground as she sat cross-legged, conjuring her powerful magic.

"[Earths' Guardian Golem Summon]"

FLAAASH!

The ground, stones, grass, everything around us combined together in front of her. Slowly forming a giant goliath made of all these elements, tightly packed and strengthened with her magic. It was as strong as a Tier 7 Monster at their Peak and was covered on a barrier of powerful Holy Light conjured by mom.

"OOOHH!"

As the golem gave a groan, the slimes seemed amused. There was a giant stone basket on the golem's arms, where all the Slimes jumped in. Despite being all stuck with one another, they felt comfortable in tight spaces, so they were pleased with this traveling method.

"Looks like they don't mind!" Nepheline laughed. "They sure are a cute little bunch!"

"Thank you for helping them mom!" Aquarina was really happy.

"Oh, it's nothing my dear." Her mother kissed her forehead. "They're the people of your Familiar and Friend. There is no way I would have denied them my help."

"Then next stop, the Dunes." My father said. "Let's get going. On foot would be nice, but how about we ride on something?"

"Sure!"

We ended summoning some of our familiars. Furoh transformed into a giant Fenrir, carrying my friends and I over his wide back. Meanwhile, my father summoned his Nine-Tailed Blazing Fox Familiar to carry everyone else.

"Hmph, I never thought I would be reduced to work as your little mule, Allan. Is this how you're going to treat me now?" She complained angrily.

"Sorry, sorry… But come on, you can help now and then, right?" My father sighed.

"Only for now… And why is she riding me too?!" The Fox panicked, seeing my mother sitting over her back.

"Be nicer with the wife of your master." My mother said with an intimidating voice.

"Tch… He should have been mine, not yours…" The fox lamented. "Allan you promised me I would be your only girl!"

"But I never thought you meant it in another way- Also haven't we discussed this years ago? Don't start again…" My father felt embarrassed.

"Grrr… Well, when you die, your soul will belong to me!" The Fox giggled slightly maliciously.

I was very curious about what all this weird drama was about. Apparently my father romanced this fox spirit, and she was very jealous of mother for being her wife… It was weird, but I felt like I shouldn't ask more.

This is not something I should get involved with. Mom and dad's relationship is really good, so this fox will lose anyways. She's nice and has helped me before, especially when I was trying to "tame" Ignatius a bit.

I hope she can find another man, my father is already taken!
