Chapter 82: The Slimes Found Their Prey

‘Let’s go! …Proud Wolf. Can you take us?’

‘Yes, slimes! Of course, I can!’

Without me saying anything, the slime jumped off of my shoulder and tried to leave the restaurant.

It was going to ride the Proud Wolf and go hunt these evil and savage Greedy Boars.

‘Yuji. We’ll have to pass through areas with people, so hide us with magic!’

The slimes were very aggressive today.

But…

‘Now, wait a minute. I can’t have you all go. Half of you must stay in case something happens.’

I didn’t like to be a wet blanket. But it was not convenient for me to have no slimes around.

I wouldn’t be able to use Slime Storage and my options for fighting would be limited.

‘…Okay.’

And with that, the slime split into two.

Slimes tended to grow larger when there were more of them united…and I had asked for half of them to stay. But I was sure that the half that was staying was smaller.

‘Is this really half?’

‘It’s practically half!’

I see.

In the world of slimes, ? was ‘practically half.’

Interesting.

Well, I could still manage with this number.

And so I used concealment magic to hide the slimes.

‘Proud Wolf! Go!’

‘Protect the Lishia Leaves!’

As I leisurely ate my stew, I could hear the gallant shouts of the slimes as they left.

Well, in spite of what they were saying, it was hard for a slime to sound gallant with those voices they had.

And like that, without even having to leave the restaurant, the town’s fields of Lishia leaves were now protected by a defense network of slimes that burned with righteous rage.

They surrounded the fields at equal distances apart and made sure that there were no blind spots.

About 500 slimes had left me, and 100 of them protected the fields while the others left to assassinate all of the Greedy Boars.

‘Let’s go!’

‘Kill them all!’

The slimes shouted excitedly as they dismounted from the Proud Wolf and scattered.

This wasn’t human-wave tactics. It was slime-wave tactics.

‘Oomph. Oomph!’

‘I’ll go over there!’

‘Then I’ll go that way!’

The slimes moved their small bodies expertly as they advanced through the snowy forest.

They were much slower than the Proud Wolf, but they had decent speed considering their appearance.

They were likely about the same speed as a slowly walking human.

Actually, considering the snow and unstable footing while navigating through the trees…they might have been faster.

That wouldn’t be much use if there was only one, but there were hundreds of them.

And so the search party for the Greedy Boars spread out and covered more and more ground.

‘A monster!’

‘But it’s the wrong one!’

A slime said as it ignored the monster that was not a Greedy Boar.

As I had cast concealment magic on them, they could pass by without being noticed.

While the slimes were great in number, they had practically no combat ability.

So they generally moved without being seen. And when it was necessary, I transferred attack magic to them.

And so I continued to eat my food while supporting them until my second bowl was empty.

While the slimes had helped me finish the first bowl, it was still a lot for one person to eat.

I didn’t think I could go for a third.

“Thank you. That was delicious.”

I said as I got up from my seat and tried to pay for the food.

But the owner wouldn’t accept it.

“I don’t need any money. We wouldn’t have been able to stay open if you hadn’t sold us the firewood.”

…That being said, it seemed wrong to eat such good food and not pay for it.

Besides, I had been compensated very well for the firewood.

Well, I suppose I could just force him to accept the money.

“I’ve already been paid for the firewood. So I’m leaving the money here.”

I said as I put it on the counter.

And then I walked out before he could try to return it to me.

‘I found one!’

‘It’s the enemy!’

Just as I left the restaurant, the slimes started shouting.

Apparently, they had found a Greedy Boar.
