27. Slime General, Explosive Debut
Here it comes! Leveling up at this critical moment!!
It seems like defeating the Goblin earlier was a good move. If there’s a chance for a comeback, it’s only here!!
――
Arx Seirant, 17 years old, Male
Level 20
Skills
[Slime Tamer]… Can generate Level 4 slimes, up to a maximum of 20.
[Slime Maker]… Can perform class changes on slimes.
Appraisal Slime… A slime with the
Storage Slime… A slime with the
Iron Wall Slime… A slime with the
Slime General… A slime capable of drawing out the abilities of other slimes. One class change allowed simultaneously.
――
As usual, new types of slimes have been added to [Slime Maker].
But something is different this time. Not only are they not named “○○ Slime,” but the specific skills are not mentioned.
Is this okay!? It feels like a considerable gamble, but doing nothing will lead to death!
“I have no choice but to try! I’ll perform a class change on the slime to Slime General with [Slime Maker]!”
――
Approved. Class change to Slime General initiated.
――
One slime is enveloped in white light, undergoing a class change. What kind of slime will it become this time?
As the light dissipates, standing there is—
“Slime General, I have arrived! At your command, Arx-sama!”
A small girl stands before us.
“A little girl came out…”
“Don’t call me a little girl! I’m an esteemed general, you know!!”
The young girl raises her arms in frustration. It seems communication is possible.
She’s a young girl with aqua-colored hair tied in pigtails. Judging by appearance, she seems around 10 years old, wearing an oversized outfit with sleeves so long that her hands are invisible.
“I want you to explain the situation. Are you the Slime General?”
“Yes! I’m the Slime General!!”
She’s probably lying.
“There are many things I want to point out, but we’re in quite a pinch right now! Can we manage!?”
“Yes! I’ve been closely observing the situation since earlier! Allow me to show you my true strength!”
At that moment, the Slime General begins desperately jumping around.
“Everyone!! Fight on!! Don’t lose!!”
Is this encouragement? It’s surreal how the crisis from just moments ago seems to vanish. Will the situation really improve with this? Just as they were pondering that.
“Kyukyukyukyuuu!!”
The slimes start making a commotion all at once. A faint aura, like white light, begins to surround their bodies!
“My power can temporarily raise the level of slimes by 2! Moreover, slimes with abilities will have their effects enhanced!”
I hear the shocking revelation from the General. The slimes, as if boiling with excitement, leap at the dungeon monsters!
“Ugeee!!”
The monsters get taken aback by the suddenly strengthened slimes. They take powerful tackles, crashing into walls like wild boars.
“Hi, Hieee!!”
A robed wizard monster casts a fireball. It heads towards the slimes engaged in combat with lizards!
“Kyukyu!”
At that moment, the Iron Wall Slime steps forward! It emits a cry, and a semi-transparent barrier appears around the slime targeted by the fireball!
It’s working. The slimes are pushing back the outbreak of monsters at an incredible pace!
“Raize! We’ll join the fight too!”
“Yeah, got it!”
They raise their swords; Ryze deploys a magic circle. They confront the monsters.
Contrary to the earlier struggle, the monsters fall one after another. In less than 5 minutes, the outbreak monsters are gone.
“Time’s up! Everyone, well done!”
The young girl claps her hands, and the slimes finally regain their composure. It seems the effect has worn off.
“That was close. Um, Slime General?”
“It wasn’t a big deal! The effect lasts for about 5 minutes for now, but I think it’ll be longer as Arkus-sama’s level increases!”
Also, the General adds.
“Could you give me a name? Um, being called General feels a bit scary…”
I see, so she wants a cute name.
“Well, considering your small stature, how about Mametubu-chan?”
“Why are you arbitrarily becoming the godparent? And your naming sense is disastrous.”
True, thanks to the Slime General’s support, the abilities of the slimes have been enhanced.
In that case, a name that conveys a lively feeling would be good. Cheer… cheerleading…?
“How about ‘Cheer’?”
“Okay! My name is Cheer!”
Cheer repeats her name with a delighted expression.
“Then, I’ll take my leave here, Cheer! Call me if anything happens again!”
Saying that, she disappears along with the light.
