26 – Ancient Devil Slime

What?!

This is news that will make you sober. As if he still had a story to tell, the man who came to tell me was stuttering his words in a cold sweat.

“That, nu, nuniim…”

“What are you talking about! Tell me straight.”

“Sister, your father is injured fighting slimes… Mo, his life is not in danger…”

“Damn that. Why tell me now!”

There was no time to care about the surroundings. Immediately, I grabbed the gun next to me and kicked out the Hope House.

At the entrance of the village.

A black slime that looked as big as a building, I was able to meet people who were confronting him.

“Yes, Yewon, are you here?!”

“Father…”

A father with a bandage on his head. As if it was difficult to walk to the medical room, he was sitting in a safe place right next to him while receiving treatment.

“Are you okay?”

“Be careful. That guy… He’s different from the slimes you’ve met.”

“What if the slime is different?”

I approached him with a tight grip on an ice bomb that was slung around my waist.

“Is your sister here?”

“Why is this bastard so big?”

“Well, it’s darker than that. It looks like it’s young. Has the seal been broken?”

She also vaguely felt it, but she tried hard to ignore it. Ancient Devil Slime. He also looked like this.

But I can say this with confidence. It emitted a much stronger musical instrument than this one and was much larger than this.

“That’s not it. Anyway, since we have guests, we should greet them. You all have ice bombs, don’t you?”

“Of course. It’s expensive, so they said to save it. There are still about a dozen left.”

It looks different from the small class C slime. Even if I can’t do it, I think it will be a B grade.

“Don’t spare it this time. Pour it all out.”

“Yes!”

Pervert!!

At least 20 ice bombs exploded at the same time. Yewon shouted as the icy smoke grew thick.

“Shoot!”

All the villagers raised their guns and started shooting at the slime. Normally, even when knocked down, there was no command to stop firing, and they fired until the ammunition was exhausted.

“…Sister. He must have been dead already, so I guess I wasted too much bullets.”

“It’s better to do too much than not enough when defeating a demon.”

It was time to examine the state of the slime after the thick ice smoke had disappeared. A slime tentacle rose through the smoke and grazed Yewon’s shoulder.

“Ugh!”

“Sister!”

It’s crazy, it’s been pouring like this, but it’s fine.

Rather than her bloody shoulder, she remembered her father, who had just been hit by the slime.

“I’m done! Take my father and evacuate. Come on!”

“Yes, yep.”

However, his tentacles moved much faster than his comrades.

“Dad!”

A tentacle almost pierced the father’s head, and in an instant, the tip of the tentacle began to freeze. This is not an ice bomb. Who is it?!

“You…! Why are you here? You’re in a bar!”

“I have to pay for chicken.”

Then he calmly drew his sword and cut off the frozen tentacles.

The magical power felt from the two swords.

It was more intense than when I met the Ancient Devil Slime.

***

Perhaps that guy is part of the Ancient Devil Slime. I don’t know if the expression is cheap, but he looks like coke jelly.

“Are you okay?”

“Thank you.”

Immediately, Yewon runs to her father and hugs her.

“I’m so glad…”

“Heh heh. How long has it been since you called me daddy?”

“Does it matter now?”

That’s right. What’s important right now is that slime. I told all the villagers who were confronting the slime to back off.

“You know the story I was talking about earlier? Do you know a wizard called SS?”

I took out her student ID from her inventory and handed it to her. Of course, with the magic seal revealed.

“That’s me.”

“…!”

The slime’s tentacles split into several and rise straight up. There’s no way.

[Ice Wave]

An ice wave with 10,066 pure mana, without magic control. A huge tsunami-like ice wave appeared and hit him.

A slime frozen solid in an instant. He cut it with his twin swords as if making an X.

[Some ancient slimes have been defeated.]

Ah. I wonder if it was really part of it? But are some of them treated as magic spells separately? The world of slime is amazing.

Other than

, Nemesis EXP, gold, and other loot were not particularly important, so I skipped right away.

When I turned around, everyone was staring at me with dumbfounded eyes.

“Is this enough for chicken?”

Only Yewon among them said this with a dejected smile.

“It won’t be enough even if I buy it for the rest of my life.”

***

After the incident was sorted out, I went back to the bar and ate chicken. The chicken made with magic is secretly delicious.

“I’m going to pretend to eat slowly. But really, an S-class wizard at the age of 17. What did I do when I was 17…”

The daughter of a chicken restaurant puts different types of chicken on the table, asking you to try this and that. Meanwhile, Yewon’s father, who was wrapped in a bandage, said with a calm expression.

“Is that so. A person from the Beasts Association? Still, it seems that our village has not forgotten.”

“I didn’t forget. I forgot, so I only sent it now after 20 years.”

“Hmm…”

I haven’t said anything yet. It seems that he was mistaken when he saw the seal of the president of the association.

“Kyaa. Aren’t you crazy about men’s clothes, sister? How come the first man you brought to town has S-class magic…”

Kwaaak!

She hits her subordinate in the head.

“Anyway, since you’re an S-class wizard, you probably know the identity of the guy you caught earlier, right?”

“It must be part of the ancient devil slime.”

Then he showed me the slime loot he had just dropped.

“I was guessing in my heart. The seal has already been broken. Considering that they sent some parts to invade…”

“No. Quite the contrary. If all the seals had been lifted, I would have come to find them myself. Since the seals have not been lifted yet, it would be natural for me to send only a part of them.”

“Yes…”

As if she was thinking about something, she took a sip of her drink and went on with her words.

“Even if you’re a f*cking wizard, I’ll never forget the debt you owed me for saving my father.”

“Debt… Then tell me the location of the ruins.”

“If you tell me your true purpose.”

“To defeat the Ancient Devil Slime.”

My answer made everyone look surprised.

“22 Years ago, even the so-called wizard was the only one who sealed it. You said you could defeat such a guy?”

“Yes.”

“…”

She couldn’t hold her words any longer, as she turned her head to look at her father.

“What do you think?”

“Haven’t you seen it from the side too? This person is on a different level. Just feeling the magic flowing from him made his hamstrings tingle.”

“I certainly did. But he’s still underage…”

Are you worried about being a minor in this situation? You are a good adult.

“Then you’ll need a guardian.”

“Yes?”

“You should go together. Yewon. Are you worried about this student?”

She drops her head in silence. But is it really necessary to risk it?

“You can just tell me the location.”

“That’s difficult. The ruins are deep in the forest, so it’s hard to find them with just a map. You must have a companion.”

“Then it doesn’t matter.”

I’ve had a lot of experience dealing with slimes on my own, so I’m sure there’s nothing to catch my ankle. I put the chicken bones in the barrel and got up right away.

“Then I’ll fill my stomach. Let’s go.”

“Wait a minute. You have to pack your things properly. The scale of the ruins is bigger than I thought, so it will take a whole day even if I can’t.”

With water to drink and food to satisfy his hunger, Yewon took ice bombs and ammunition separately. Probably nothing to write about.

In front of the village entrance.

All the villagers came out and saw us off.

“Sister, and wizard! Give that bastard a damn thing.”

“I know you can recover even if you get scolded. You must have come up with countermeasures, right?”

She looks at me. Does she need to speak nodded her head.

“Oh my God. I heard that everything happens. I didn’t know that I would go to the ruins with a party with a wizard. Anyway, I’ll come back. Father.”

“… Take care of yourself.”

“I’m worried about my father’s head.”

A mountain off-road car greeted us as we exited the village entrance.

“Sister. Fortunately, the car was fine.”

“Good. Come on.”

She took over her steering wheel.

“I thought you were going to walk…”

“I’ll walk the entire time I enter the ruins. Save your stamina in advance.”

I drive on a rough unpaved road with a rattling sound. It’s fortunate that my current body is Kim Yi-do, a master of dual swords. Or I would have been motion sickness the entire ride.

After about 10 minutes of running, the car stopped.

Deep in the forest, the ruins of Caparta.

It looked like a temple, but probably because there were few people, there were spider webs and moss in places, and there were stairs leading to the basement at the entrance.

The slime is sealed inside. It’s not just slime, it’s demon slime. It really does look like it.

“Be careful not to trip.”

“Yes.”

I took each step carefully and arrived at the basement of the ruins. Surprisingly, there were lanterns installed all over the basement, so it wasn’t dark.

Why are there lanterns? If you think about it, it’s no big deal.

It would be out of the blue if it were real, but the background is a game novel.

“I know you know, but I’ll tell you one more time. The warlock invaded this place and set up all kinds of trap magic. 22 Years ago, the members of your Beasts Association came and turned it off, but there must be a lot more traps that haven’t gone away yet. Never be vigilant. “

[Eye of the sky has been activated.]

Looks good. A magic circle with concealment magic is drawn on the basement wall next to it.

“The trap magic circle left by the black magician… I heard you need to know the formula to solve it. Do you know?”

“Do you know that there is another way besides knowing the formula?”

“Huh?”

That means that if you hit it with magic much stronger than magic circle magic, it will disappear.

Quang!

“Let’s go.”

“Huh.”
