9 Mother Slime

Village head do you think those adventurers are going to be fine.' village elder 3.

For all our sake I hope so, those slimes are one of the biggest problems the village has faced this year.' village head.

But village head I heard that the adventurer that took on this job is nothing more than an F rank adventurer.' village elder 2.

What, that can't be he was so confident.' village head.

So what it's just the confidence of a new adventurer, nothing more than a child being naive.' village elder 2.

Ha, as much as I don't like to admit it I have to agree with him, but if that adventurer were to die who is going to pick up his corp's.' village elder 6.

You think the will still be a body, even if he we're to die that has nothing to do with us, he knew this job was not going to be easy.' village elder 2.

Yeah, you're right...but I heard he was a mage so the is more of a chance that he will clear up the slimes and get rid of the slimes. 'village elder 3.

Let's hope so' the village head said.

In a plain field with ice, we see Winter trying his best to dodge the giant slime.

This thing is slower than the smaller ones but if I let my guard down and let it hit me, I will instantly turn into a pile of yogurt. I have to freeze it as quickly as possible.'Winter thought.

Using the skill ice spikes he throws them into the slime, they instantly dissolve inside the slime. The slime grows an inch.

The fuck is this did that thing just get bigger or is it just me?'Winter thought.

Getting distracted by the slime that seemed to grow every time he threw an ice spike, he failed to notice the small slime that charged into his back pushing him into the mother slime.

Ahhh...shit I failed to notice this little shit, but where the fuck did it come from?'Winter thought.

But Winter bounced off the mother slime and slammed into a tree to the point where his back would have snapped in half if he didn't have a superhuman body. That still didn't prevent him from coughing out blood.

Cough, cough, cough, damned slime that really hurts.'Winter said, in pain, As he looked up the was no slime anywhere to be seen.

Where did it...

Winter saw a giant shadow clouding above him, when he looked up he could see the giant slime.Winter jumped out of the way as the mother slime tried to slam into him.

Winter looked around the surroundings trying to locate the little slime and to his surprise the were four more slimes added to the number making it a total of six slimes to defeat including the mother slime.

You have to be kidding me, the big one is already trouble enough now the are five small ones too, shit.'Winter thought.

The slimes charged in to attack and enclose Winter in the center while the mother slime looked for an opportunity to strike.

These smart little fuckers... 'Winter thought, as he jumped using Windwalk.

Play times over.'Winter said as he shot ice spikes into the little slime's freezing them instantly.

Now it's you're turn.'Winter said as he rushed into the mother slime entering it.

What the!?d does he have a death wish?'Sofia thought.

Inside the mother slime, we can see Winter as his clothes start to dissolve.Winter activates his constitution preventing his body from being affected by the poison.

Now freeze you annoying.'Winter thought, closing his eyes and using freeze wave, freezing the mother slime from the inside out.

His crazy and reckless to think he would freeze it from the inside out.'Sofia said, giving out a sigh as if saying is it going to be like always.

Should I break him out or leave him in there?'Sofia thought.

The mother slime started shaking and Boom Winter break's out, completely stripped of his clothes.

That was really dumb don't you think.. oh, do you have some spare clothes.'Winter said, facing Sofia's direction.

No, I have a cloth.'Sofia said, holding up the cloth and staring at Winter with a slightly tilted head.Not bad.' she thought.

Village head I don't think they are coming back.' village elder 3.

Yeah, they probably got overrun by them and died.' village elder 2.

Do you always have to be so negative.' village elder 6.

It's not being negative if it's the truth.' village elder 2.

Yes, his right, we should probably get going now it's ready sun down...if they don't come back until tomorrow we will send a letter to the adventures guild explaining...' the village head said.

Village head look over there, it's the adventurers they are back.' villager elder 3.

What really? they indeed made it back.' the village head said.

Do you think they managed to kill them all or they ran away after almost being killed. 'village elder 6.

Haa, that can't be true, it took them this long to come back, they must have killed all of them.' village elder 2.

Optimistic bastard.' village elder 6 thought.

Ahh, adventurers how did it go?' the village head said.

The is no need to worry we...I took care of all the slimes so the wouldn't be any more coming to your village.'Winter said.

Hahaha, that's great today we celebrate.' the village head said.

Yeah, I will get the food and drinks ready.' village elder 2.

Young adventurers you have to join us.' the village head said.

Of course, we would love to... it's already late anyway.'Winter said.

That's great, the third elder get our guests to a nice room to rest up first.' the village head said.

Right on it village head, please follow me.' village elder 3.

Okay, but...can I get some clothes mine... kind of got melted.'Winter said.

Yes, of course, I will get it ready for you right away.' village elder 3.

Winter and Sofia followed the elder to their respective rooms to rest and change, then after to go and join in on the celebration, with drinks, food, and a giant bond fire in the center of the village.

Midnight after the party, Winter is resting on his bed playing around with the mage beast core he pulled out of the frozen mother slime.

Knock knock knock

Who is it?'Winter said.

It's Sofia, she said as she entered.

Ohh, I didn't wasn't expecting you.'Winter said.

Then who were you expecting?'Sofia asked.

Maybe one of the elders, but anyway what is it you want?'Winter asked.

That core, can I see it.'Sofia said.

This...is the something special about it?'Winter said.

I won't know until I see it.'Sofia said.

Haa, catch.'Winter said as he through the core to Sofia.

Thanks....

Sofia started examining the core with mana sense and appraising eye.

Mhm...I see...Sofia said.

What is it?'Winter asked.

This core is genuine.'Sofia said.

The fuck??

Is something wrong?' Sofia asked.

Is that it?

Yeah.

Give me back my core.'Winter said.

While Winter and Sofia were having their little conversation, a man in a room was talking to an orb.

[What's the result?]

The adventurers managed to defeat the slime.

[Really now that's good, what about the core?]

I think they have it with them, sir.

[Then go get it.]

Sir even if I tried I don't think I can.

[I want that core find a way to retrieve it now]

Yes, sir, I will do my best.

[Conversation ended]

Shit, it would have been easy if that adventurer just drank a little more, but now I have to think of another way.

{Mooning}

Do you have to leave this early?' the village head said.

Yes, we have been here long enough.'Winter said.

Haa, that's fine but here take some of this with you.' the village head said.

What's in here?'Winter asked.

Just some fruit for along the way.' village head.

Ohh, thank you.'Winter said.

It's no big deal, you helped us with the slimes this is something small to show our gratitude.'The village head said.

If you put it like that I can't refuse, we will be off then.'Winter said as he started to ride off.

Hope they stay safe.' village head.

No need to worry they are strong children.' village elder 3.

Yes, they will be fine.

I can't believe they gave me a horse, this is great I thought I was going to have to buy one.'Winter thought.

We are going to have to spend a night on the road again.'Sofia said.

Yeah, if only this village wasn't so far.'Winter said.

I know another way but it's going to take longer but the is a small village there.'Sofia said.

Ohh way did we not take that one to begin with?'Winter said.

It would have added another five hours to our travel, you would have to take another night in the village before you can leave again.'Sofia said.

So we would have to spend two nights there, yeah this was fine, those old men are too much for me. Let's take your way.'Winter said.

Yes, they just left the village you can find them on the way coming here....yes yes no one will find out just take care of them quickly and retrieve the core in their hands.

The hooded man took off the hood to reveal his face.

Sorry kid's if I don't do this it's either you or me, I prefer it to be you.' village elder 3.
