Chapter 122 122 An ‘intelligent’ slime
[El's POV: ]
The summoning process is usually just normal. Like the light happens in the summoning circle and then things materialize above the place with the circle and that's it. The summoning process in the normal circumstances.
But a unique process happened after I placed twelve Mana crystals above the input energy zone and the summoning circle, after summoning some useless creature once again went into the charging mode and started sucking in all the Mana from the input zone.
'Which was quite a crazy process since the input this time was more than what it ever had in its time in this place.'
The summoning circle created a violent spectacle and sucked in all the mana from the dense Mana rich crystals, and the ten second time that it takes to complete one summoning process, with a strong gust of wind and some sparks of lightning, finished soon with the destruction of the summoning circle and materialization of this simple looking creature in its place.
[ "So you are saying you used to live in a place with a lot of blue trees and there were scary things that chased after you from time to time?" ]
There was a blue round slime before me… that did not resemble that certain famous demon lord slime who used to be a human that got reincarnated as a slime in a unique world. No, this one had a bright red core inside it visible so it wasn't exactly like that.
And it was no reincarnation or anything like that. It was just a simple slime that couldn't even use Mana speech yet.
'But, this one was a unique intelligent creature so, it was my jackpot. All thanks to luck from that jackass bastard.'

[Innate skill: Cellular respiration (Lv.1)]
—->? A semi-fluid creature that possesses more intelligence than his kind, making him a peculiar figure among his species.
—->, Unlike usual slimes that are vulnerable to magic and cannot withstand the powerful attacks powered with Mana, this one has a natural talent for Mana perception and the development of unique magical abilities.
—-> It possesses a core however, thanks to its unique innate skill, it can live even after the core is destroyed and later regenerate the core itself from scratch. Ultimately making it a creature that can regenerate itself from even a few of its cells.
—-> It has the capacity to become a creature of higher intelligence and thanks to its [Learning] skill, it can learn new things at a faster rate and thanks to its young nature, it can evolve into a powerful force.
?(It is young and special, thus it is advised you nurture this jackpot to the best of your abilities. And since it is a young slime, its natural growth limits are way beyond most other creatures of nature. Depending on your actions and way of nurturing, it can become a weapon of mass destruction or a family member that you can rely on.
============
Slimes are one of the most unique creatures in this entire Worldline. And this one here was the prime example of that fact.
'Perhaps it's because they are some of the only species that are born through the natural amalgamation of Mana or perhaps it's because they are one of the species that have lived since the time of the creation of this Worldline but, they are very mysterious creatures even to me.'
They are called creatures of nature since their origin is nature or more precisely, I would say the natural concentration of atmospheric energy.
'Mana gathers, condenses, transforms into matter, and gives birth to different 'natural' beings or materials.'
The creation of unique metals, the mutation of normal plant species, and the birth of creatures like these slimes are all because of that phenomenon that happens randomly. But even in these random happenings, the chances of an intelligent slime appearing is quite fucking impossible.
'I would even say only a few planets give birth to such a creature every few decades or centuries so actually finding one of them this early was definitely not something I was expecting.'
And, this one was one of the best I have come across since it not only has cool and actually good skills, but also a freaking innate skill!
Just how many 'creatures' could possess something like this~? One in millions I would say since creatures or monsters don't possess anything like a separate innate skill other than their racial skills and adaptation skills. It just showed how special this one was so this was the best~. Hehehe.
[ "Hmmm. Did you like how you used to live over there little one?" ]
This one couldn't speak yet since it never had a need to. But I liked the talking ones a little more so I will have to teach it the good stuff later.
But for now, it just wiggles a little to respond to my questions that it could 'feel' with its special perception skill.
And I can't put this into words but I could also understand what it wanted to express perhaps thanks to the interpersonal communication ability of my link skill.
'And it answered something like 'Noooo! I never liked that scary place! Everything there was scary and just wanted to eat anything they could find! It was a scary place!' Or something like that, lol.'
I understood what this slime was saying even without saying anything, haaa… I'm getting crazier day by day.
'I need some long passionate kisses from my bastard. Kisses that would induce orgasms. That was the only possible cure I can think of for this illness of mine with all my vast medical knowledge.'
Yes, that was the only option. We have to kiss… and to do that, we have to finish things in this place first and get done with this exam.
[ "It's alright you poor little thing. You are now far away from that place. And you will be staying with us from now on so be prepared to see new things that you might never have expected in your life~." ]
This one should barely be a week or so old but from the hellish place it has come from, it's fascinating it even managed to survive for that long of a time.
'People of this planet don't call it a forbidden area for anything, alright? It really is a shitty and scary place filled with creatures of (Level-300) to (Level-400) easily. The lower level cap's also (Level-200) so no way a little baby like this one could survive among beasts like those.'
It was located in the southern continent and we weren't going there anytime soon but, it was the best I got this cutie like this. Destroying that circle and using my precious Mana crystal was more than worth it.
I was happily looking at it, but my words had made it a little confused. But still, my smile attracted him a little and my charm worked on this one as well.
[ "Don't worry. I will be your mommy from now on. But we are in a bad place for now, so, how about you rest in my unique space for a while? I promise you won't even feel like that long of a time has passed the next time you see me." ]
I can make a binding contract with this one right now and it would become a part of me after that but we were inside a labyrinth with many environmental factors that could affect this slime during the contracting process.
It could evolve midway through the contracting process and get some weird attributes that I definitely did not want on my little baby so there was no need to take any risks.
Time almost stopped in my prism space when storing living things inside of it. We already tested it back at the troll village.
It was also quite a special storage skill, I would say. But, it's one of the most useful things to me since I needed many things on me including all my summons like this slime.
'It would be a little different from a familiar but, a summon was pretty much similar to a familiar. The only major difference between a familiar and a summon is the very intimate relationship that bound a familiar and master by their mental body and the contract that connected the summon and summoner's soul through a string of connection.'
One can have many summoned creatures, that's how necromancies and summoners of all kinds existed in this Worldline. But, the familiar was different.
There might be only one in most cases, but even if someone had more than one familiar, all of them would be equally connected with each other.
'The person with the most familiars in this Worldline, the elder offspring that overlooks the familiar summoning process, also only has nine familiars. And after that comes ???? of ???, someone we are bound to meet in the future. But that's another fun thing.'
It would be fun, but, since people do not know what is this fun thing he and I talk about periodically, they might believe there is no plot to this particular journey of ours. But, welp, they can think what they want.
We will continue doing what we want to. You won't be able to continue this shit for long now, fucking asshole.
.-- . .-.. .-.. --..-- / - .-. -.-- / .. - / - .... . -.
Anyway, this little one was confused for a while but it then happily agreed and I put it inside my prism space. We can finish the contract after we're done with this exam and I've kissed my bastard's soul out of his hot body.
"Alright then, done at last."
I made a lot of fun memories in this place so I'm gonna remember it for a long time now.
It will be a while until I come back here but, this was a nice place that gave me a good time so, I will spare it… or should I destroy this place? It doesn't matter anyway, right? Destroying this would be more fun, wouldn't it?
"Hmmm…"
Nah. Let's just leave it as a memento. I met this cutie here so when it's all grown up when we are back here, I will tell it how we met here and how I killed thousands of creatures here and borrowed that bastard's luck before summoning it.
'Hmmm~. It would be like a mama telling her children a story on a picnic about their past experience in that picnic place~.'
It will be fun, so, this place gets to live.
[ "Oy Lucy bastard. Me's done." ]
[ "Come here then. I'm resting here." ]
[ "Awww~. My bubu is resting~? Is my bubu hurty somewhere? Need nippys?" ]
[ "…ugh. Just come here." ]
[ "Yeah baby~! I'm cominggggg!" ]
[ "Don't say it like that you dumb-" ]
[ "Yeaaaaaaaah~! I'm comingggg for youuuu~! Brotherrrrr Luciferrrr~!" ]
[ "Ok, bye." ]
Heheh, he stopped talking afterward. Cute basted. Must be having a micro orgasm after hearing those sexy voices.
'Cute boy.'
It will be fun making him a man again, kekeke—muhahahaha!
