Tensei Shitara Slime Datta

Chapter 30: The Envoy

Gabil easily gained the support of the Goblin Village.

Without having to show our strength, the goblins quickly surrendered themselves to me.

After all, they were a pathetic race. If they show any intention to disobey, I will immediately force them to obey.

Gabil completely forgot the Headmaster's words.

He asked each village to bring food from their warehouses.

And, because every soldier gathered before him.

The goblin warriors numbered 7,000.

They were wearing worn leather armor, and were armed with stone spears.

Bad fighting strength, but good enough for now.

Those who had no desire to fight had already fled.

「Klan head! Is there another village around here? 」

Leaders exchanged looks.

One answered nervously,

「Not ... although it is not a village, but there is a community ..」

What's up with that?

The way they tried to avoid the question irritated Gabil.

And as he pressed further, they began to tell him strange stories.

That there was a group of goblins hunting on top of a canine wolf.

But that makes no sense, he thought. Wolf Fang was a powerful monster that moved in packs.

Called the lords of the plains, they had thwarted the Lizadmen's advance many times.

For them to serve some lowly goblins .. impossible!

And moreover, they had concluded with a truly ludicrous statement.

The goblins are following the slime.

Slime, lowest monster! What wolf, or even a goblin would serve such trash?

He decided to confirm their words.

There may be some tricks involved, he thought. If he handled this well, he could gain control over the fanged wolf.

Gabil then decided .. for the sake of his great ambition.

The village was not where he was told.

It made him angry, but he decided to be patient. In order to control the wolf, he might need more patience.

In order to achieve his wish of overthrowing the current Chief, he needed to have more self-control.

Therefore, for the sake of his goal, he decided to be patient.

Gabil only felt one obstacle to his plan – lack of troops.

If only he could command the wolves, the other lizardmen would definitely follow.

And with the lords of the plains and the marsh lords under one banner, how could they think of fearing the lowly Orcs!

Gabil was so trusting, without the slightest doubt.

By expelling the orcs, they would become the true rulers of the Jura Forest. And thus, surely Gelmudo-sama will set them apart for their services.

For such a big dream, he would wait for as long as needed.

The main force he had sent back to Lake Shisu, ordered them to be on standby.

Since they did not have much supplies, they had to act quickly. Time is very important.

And after receiving reports that the track was found, he quickly issued an order.

Including himself, he chose ten elites.

Mounting the Overlizards, they ran towards their destination.

Those wolves were nothing to be afraid of, because even though they were definitely strong, they obeyed some lowly goblins. Maybe the rest of the pack.

"I will train them myself, and make them regain their previous strength!" So he thought.

Oh, but how could he imagine what would unfold before him …!

His head was filled with dreams of becoming the ruler of the forest and serving Gelmudo-sama.

.

To meet with the lizardmen envoy, I went to the entrance of the city.

There, we had built a small hut that the guards used to rest.

The members present were me, Rigurdo, Benimaru, Hakurou, and Shion.

I had asked Shion to prepare the tea, but it ended in regret.

He did not understand the beauty of gentle refinement and natural simplicity. He does everything with all his strength.

As if screaming, strength is everything!

While cleaning up, "Everything must be removed" he concludes, and seeks to destroy the building. Fortunately, we were able to stop it in time and there was no need to rebuild it.

"I sincerely apologize to you!" It's sad, but that doesn't mean we can let our guard down around him.

He would only try to solve the problem with his strength. So I was worried about taking it out of my sight.

However, he was overjoyed when I let him wait for me.

I just hope he's not so happy about it.

And as I thought, the tea was terrible. But is it even tea …?

I felt like there was a strange grass, it looked like wakame, floating there. In short, it is not something you will drink.

Rigurdo, afraid of "What is this .. explain yourself!", shyly turned away.

What man …

Benimaru, closing his eyes as if his life depended on him, refused to look in this direction.

Damn you guys …

And not realizing our difficulties, waiting for praise – Shion.

Waitaminute! What can be praised?

After saying my prayer, I moved to pick up the teacup, and,

"ah! Tea, yes! I just got thirsty! 」

With those words, Gobuta who had just arrived took a cup and drank it all.

* Guuuuuuuudo !!! *

It's done well! I am proud of you from the bottom of my heart!

However, Shion's face turned into a smile without positive emotions …

That, Gobuta did not pay attention .. could not pay attention.

The last one * Gobu ~! * Escape from his mouth before being filled with foam. And, *Bikun bikun! * He fell to the floor with convulsions.

Avoid that bullet. That could have been me there.

His face changed in surprise, Shion slightly tilted her head.

But I will not be fooled. She is banned from cooking from now on.

「Ah, Shion. When making food or drinks for people, be sure to run them by Benimaru first! 」

Let's make sure he understands.

Benimaru, choking on something, looked at me in response.

"No. He's your problem now, I leave him to you! ”I told him with my eyes.

And thus the two sadly hung their heads.

I pray that there will not be many casualties from now on.

Since the alarm went off, an hour has passed.

And the messenger finally arrived.

And, with a somewhat 'different' attitude, a Lizardman took down a giant lizard.

Will he .. their leader?

Done Well done with reception! I'll allow you to be my servant. Honored !!! 」

Is he still sleeping?

Somehow ... I have no words to say. What did this idiot say?

「Hmph-deep. Did you not hear? Orc soldiers were advancing in the forest. The only one who can save you little fry is me! 」

So the Orcs did come. I waited for Souei to report, so this was as expected.

I think it makes sense to unite against them, but …

「Oh, correct. I've heard there's someone among you who has tamed a canine wolf. I'll make him an officer. Bring him to me! 」

Um …

Fighting together is good. But what if our allies are idiots?

An incompetent ally is worse than a violent enemy. That is common sense …

I glanced at Rigurdo at a glance. His mouth opened.

Benimaru scratched his head, and looked at me as if saying, "can I kill this idiot?"

We refuse. No, not about Shion cuisine – their offer!

Hakurou just crossed his arms, and closed his eyes ... Or did he sleep?

And, Shion, who hugged me, flexed her hand …

Hello. ! You'll destroy me!

But when he noticed my panic, he relaxed a little.

Being held in a slime body certainly feels good, but it is dangerous.

I'm breathless. Hugged to death won't be funny. It seemed like he could not control his strength at all.

Anyway, this is a bit troubling. Who would have the envoy would be an idiot.

「Umm, the person who tamed the canine wolf ... or rather made her his servant was me..」

Anyway, let's continue the conversation.

「Haaah? Low mucus? Then call him now. If you do, I'll believe you. 」

How humbling!

Now I'm upset. This guy ... he completely ignored us, walking at his own pace. He looks down on us too much.

I have met many politicians and office workers before, but never have I met someone so stupid.

For such a fool, it is best to ignore the rules of decency.

And besides, there was no point in making such an ally.

I decided to change my approach,

「Ranga!」

"Dad! I listen and obey. 」

Ranga emerged from within my shadow. Recently, hiding there had become his habit.

「Oh. Looks like I have business with you. I'm allowing you to talk. 」

I'd rather leave this to someone else.

Because there is always someone who can manage such a person better.

But really, the only one who does not treat me – while slime – as garbage is Rigurdo, yes.

Well, there's nothing I can do to lose interest in laughing at this guy.

And by the way, it seems to every person who recognizes my aura while I hide it there is an idiot who is not even when I display it.

That's something I need to think about.

Seeing my displeasure, Ranga

「Rather than with my master, I have been ordered to speak with you. I listened . Talk!"

While intimidating the lizardmen, he faced the envoy.

Which, in turn, lost its composure for a moment, but then quickly regained it.

「Ri .. true. So you are Fang Wolf? Chief here? I'm the leader of the Lizardmen attack, Gabil.

It's nice to meet you. As I just stated, I have received a name. So instead of that slime, how about serving me? 」

He boldly answered.

Let me hit him!

No, no, it should act like an adult monster here. Let's forgive him.

I'm an adult Calm yourself .

But more than me, I want Shion to relax. Wait, there's more power and I'll. . !

Realizing my wriggling, Shion apologized by patting me. Seriously, relax.

However, wasn't he too arrogant for a simple lizard …

Ranga also pleaded to release him.

「Teacher. Lowly lizard .. I'm no longer Fang Wolf. So that you do not get too familiar, creatures do not matter ……

Ranga gritted her teeth and a dangerous dark red light filled her eyes. He's holding his anger.

Ranga-san .. don't overdo it. Will the lizard survive?

If he wasn't a courier, I'd laugh to see him torn apart for his stupidity, but …

"Very good! I will show you my strength! Who will be my opponent? 」

Oi oi .. that's a bad joke.

Please read the atmosphere, lizard. You're the weakest here.

At most, he might be stronger than Rigurdo …

I mean, even Rigurdo has the power of a B rank.

Being the Goblin king, he was the strongest warrior among the goblins.

The average for a hobgoblin is C +, but he's the world above that.

And that doesn't include the weapons.

Of course, the lizard was a named monster and might be powerful among them, but it was nothing compared to anyone here.

Where does this confidence come from?

We exchanged looks.

Who will fight him …?

「Kukuku, okay. In that case, fight with one of my storm wolves, if you defeat him, I will listen. 」

Ranga continued the conversation.

Mercifully. We can't agree on who's going to fight him.

Everyone wanted to defeat the man for no reason, and had a dangerous radiance in their eyes.

But somehow, seeing them act like that, relaxes me.

And whenever someone has anger, we all seem calm.

For a guy like this, only I can seem to stay calm at all times.

"Is that good? I'm willing to face you, you know?

Well, if you feel like making excuses when you lose, you are free to send your subordinates! 」

Uoooooooooooo !!! Ranga howling.

Damnit damnit! Just when the anger has subsided, the lizard must provoke us again.

Ranga calmly called out to the wolf.

I had no idea he had learned such summoning skills.

Moreover, the black wolf that appeared thus, I must admit, looks really cool.

「Garu. Close this lizard! 」

「Gau! (Yes!)"

And then, to the lizard,

「If you want to borrow my power, first show me yours. Now, begin! 」

Ranga yells.

Hearing his voice, the battle began.

The lizard, no, Gabil prepared a trident, and carefully observed the movements of the storm wolf.

The wolf, on the other hand, stood quietly.

* Ton! * He kicked the ground, covering the distance to his opponent in one jump.

Beyond Gabil's perceptual ability, speed is incredible.

Unable to react, Gabil never knew what was happening to him.

In a split second, he received a punch to the chest. The wolf then spins behind him, and holds his neck – with his mouth, of course – in the air.

He threw Gabil into the air once, and then smashed him to the ground.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye.

Not Ranga, but a few average storm wolves had completely taken control of the attack leader of the Babylonian rank Lizardmen.

I know Ranga has grown stronger recently, but to think that other wolves have progressed so far …

As a result of the attack, the Gabil-scale armor shattered apart, and the lizard itself fainted.

Gabil's subordinate, who was busy encouraging him a second ago, now stood agitated.

They can't understand what's going on at all.

「Oi. The winner has been decided. I refused that offer.

If you come asking for help to fight the orcs, I can consider it.

But today, get rid of it and go 」

After hearing my words, the Lizardmen finally started to leave.

And thus, the troubled Lizardmen envoy finally left.

But ...The Orcs are still going to storm, and we don't have a solid plan yet.

In addition, we seem to have met with an "allied" who caused the headaches and unreliability known as the Lizardmen.

The more I think about these things, the deeper I become sad.
