“Oh, that’s really convenient”
“I have one more question, it’s about the slime that was here a while ago. That slime was quite handy. It’s the first time I’ve seen a slime that can respond to questions”
“At some point… it learned… if tamed for long, can learn…”
“I see… A Slave Magic User that has used a slime for a long time is really rare. And a slime like yours that has become able to understand is especially rare. So to say, there’s probably none outside of yours, huh?”
The 4 finally let their guard down as they came to understand that Ryouma truly wasn’t an enemy. Seeing as how effective the medicine was, and Hyuzu’s state stabilizing, the four breathed a sigh of relief. They passed the time by idly chatting about silly stories from outside the forest.
That day’s supper were the monsters caught by Ryouma and his slimes, plus the vegetables he personally cultivated inside the cave. The menu were Stir-fried Chicken and Vegetables (To make it smell good, fruits that resembled lemon and herb were added) and Rabbit Meat Soup. Ryouma chose these for supper because they were easy to make but the other four thanked him a great deal finding them to be very complex dishes.
