Tensei Shitara Slime Datta

Chapter 41: The Predator

If it was the usual me, I would panic about how difficult it would be to win again the Gelmudo Disaster Demon Lord Orc.

A yellow aura coiled around me, I could easily cut my sword.

But receiving the meat knife "Flesh Destroyer" might make me fly.

But it was expected.

Even Shion, who was stronger than me, lost the battle of strength against him.

Moreover, even Hakurou, who far surpasses me in sword skills, cannot damage it.

So I again tried to land the attack while darting at high speed.

Check from every angle, trying to find weaknesses.

I knew it was useless, but I saw no reason to stop.

Even if he landed a punch that made me leave, I just went on trying to attack.

Confirm my own weakness.

Thinking about it, my main force consisted of five people. Including Shuna and Kurobee, that is.

They have all received one of my powers and exceeded my own abilities in it.

[Black Lightning] Manga

[Fire Manipulation] Benimaru

[Analyst] Shuna

[Perception Acceleration] Hakurou

Shion's [Hercules Strength] and Body Strengthening

[Magic Perception] and Souei's special skills

[Researcher] Kurobee

In every skill they exceed me.

I can only be called strong because I have every skill they do.

If we fight one-on-one and I try hard, I think I can win. However, if those five people get together, I might lose.

Yet these orcs surpassed the five of them.

Never being able to land the final blow, they were bound to run out of magic energy and perish.

So, even if I fight with orcs fairly and honestly, I will never be able to win.

Fine .

Even if I fight fair and …

Why are oni's skills stronger than mine?

Hakurou is stronger because his sword skill level is much higher.

That's very understandable.What about the others?

Actually ... are they really stronger than me?

Answer …

In the first place,

All my abilities have been gained by monsters.

Since they are not skills from birth, I need to take the time to understand them properly.

Just as having a license does not necessarily mean you can drive a car now, and it certainly does not mean you can win against professional drivers.

And yet.

There are skills I have had since the time I reincarnated into this world.

This is a skill I have had since birth.

Which I can manipulate freely.

That skill even I have near complete mastery.

So, I ordered.

I'm allowing you to control my body. Move as you please, [Great Sage]!

≪ Accepted. Switch to Battle Mode. ≫

And thus the response to the previous question,

＊ ＊ ＊

The Demon Lord Orc Disaster was confused.

Just as he had intended to cook and eat the five powerful demons, another one had appeared.

A boring monster, he thought.

The magic energy of the monster must be high, easily surpassing that of the other five.

However, the monsters continued to attack meaninglessly, each one equally weak.

Which was even lower than the five before him.

No matter how often the monster attacked, no damage accumulated. Thus, orcs did not feel threatened.

Thus, just when he pointed to the monster as a good meal …

The continuous attacks suddenly stopped.

And, he took his mask.

And the Orc saw the beautiful young face of a silver-haired girl.

What's he planning?

When he thought about it,

* Zasu! *

His arm, elbow down, cut off from his body. And where it used to be installed, a dark flame burned it.

And when he saw, his enemy, with the appearance of a child, held a melted sword engulfed in dark flames.

The enemy? Yeah, it's the enemy.

He considered his food. But now it's different. There was a huge difference with the present presence before him.

It doesn't matter that the enemy's weapon has been burned. His abilities were so high that he did not need them!

After meeting the enemy for the first time since evolving, the body of the Demon Lord Orc Disaster tensed up '.

And another strange feeling.

It's weird ... His arm hasn't started to regenerate yet!

Perplexed, he saw where his arm only found the dark flames still burning and sealed his regeneration.

Anger burned in his eyes.

Cutting off his arm on his shoulder, he made him regenerate. And, he began to swing the Meat Blade "Flesh Destroyer" with all his might.

"The little boy could not withstand even one punch !:

And yet. The seemingly unarmed child casually raised his hand, produced a sword of thin air, and received the attack.

With the same sword he thought was burnt by his skill.

And when the meat blade came into contact with the sword, both of them were engulfed in black flames and disappeared.

"I have to go out to devour it!" The aura of the Orc Disaster swelled up causing shock waves on the battlefield.

Filling his fists with his aura, he attacked. His enemy, too, clenched his fists and fended off his attacks.

He saw a magic bullet flying towards him. Avoiding that, she responds with Gakki no Koushinenbu (Death March Dance).

Colliding with seven bullets in the air, his magic bullet continued.

They were reinforced with [Starving Ones] and had a corrosive effect.

Although he might not die because of this, he would suffer damage.

As he thought, he stood up as if nothing had happened.

And the new armor now covered himself. His attack was probably deflected by that armor.

That was true for him, so perhaps his enemy was also evolving.

I am starving . I want to eat it !!!

The Demon Lord Orc Disaster thought. The five before him were unimportant, all he wanted was to eat the one before him!

He took his enemy.

Since he was stronger, if he fought long enough, he would eventually destroy him. Just as he was thinking that, his legs were crushed.

The kick of the locomotive ward landed on him causing his body to fall, but still he would not let go.

Releasing that yellow aura, he made it envelop his enemy.

One of the effects of [Starving Ones] was to corrode and devour his enemies directly.

And when the life of his enemy shrinks, it will become his nutrition.

I want to eat it! His head was filled with that one, he directed his entire being to ruin it!

And, his enemy had given up fighting, gradually giving up on …

＊ ＊ ＊

Everything went as I planned.

With the full support of the [Great Stage] I can use the skills to their full potential.

A form of combat that has never been seen optimally. I can even use [Black Fire Manipulation] now.

Moreover, the [Body Armor] had transformed into a [Full Armor Transformation]. This further strengthens my equipment.

A skill that I was previously difficult to master, I now easily control it with the help of the [Great Sage].

However, it is still difficult to beat your fundamental limitations. The longer this fight continued the stronger the Orc Disaster could grow.

Even if I knew how to use my skills, it was not like my overall ability with them had improved.

The Orc Disaster had also just evolved and had poor control over them. Thus, this advantage is clearly temporary.

That's why I need to end this quickly.

So I planned to lead the battle to a state where I could quickly overwhelm him with the skills I mastered.

The Orc Disaster has begun to damage me, intending to devour.

However, I also intend to devour you!

My slime. My basic abilities are [Dissolving, Absorbing, Regeneration].

My regeneration ability is similar to his. However, the slime body is naturally resistant to corrosion.

So, I had planned from the beginning to eat you this way!

I made her believe that my body had melted, and used it to blanket her.

Slowly move the arm …

And by the time he realized, it was too late.

This was the standard method of battle for the slime race.

No matter how much he was angry now, he was already protected by me; his attack was cancelled.

It's useless, you have to think? You are proud of your regenerative abilities, and my attacks will have no effect?

The battle has become a dead end.

I tried to disperse it, but his regeneration prevented his death. At the same time, my regenerative abilities negate his corrosion.

Each tried to devour the other like Ouroboros.

The one who eats the other first wins.

Simple right?

I planned this to win.

Rather than rely on a skill that I have not mastered, I decided to rely on my most basic skills.

The power I have.

My mucus ability [Dissolving, Absorbing] mixes very well with [Predator].

So at the same time as I started absorbing and dissolving these orcs, I also activated the [Predator].

I am a predator.

The Orc Disaster, the power you wield, the [Starving Ones], is of course powerful.

However, you are a scavenger.

Eating anything and everything is of course amazing, but my specialty is specializing in hunting and devouring prey.

And while the two of us are eating each other, I will devour your abilities first.

Using my ability, the unique skill [Predator]!

My skills can analyze the abilities of a living enemy, whereas you are only a dead person.

This moment has decided the battle.

…………….

…… .

…

How much time has passed?

When we try to eat each other.

But believing in my victory, I focus on getting ahead of him and, like, getting ahead of him,

I can't lose.

I ate my brothers.

I can't lose.

I must be the demon king.

I have eaten Gelmudo-sama.

I can't lose.

Brother's hungry.

I can't lose.

Eat until we are full!

The mind flows to me.

Hmph. Are you an idiot?

I'm not sure what you're up against, but you've lost to me.

But, I cannot lose …

I ate my brothers.

I ... sin …

So I have nothing to lose.

It's no use.

Let me teach you something.

It's the survival of the fittest in this world. You strayed.

So you're dead.

But, I cannot lose …

If I die, my brothers will be burdened with my sins.

I became a sinner, so that they would not starve, for that I would do anything!

I will be the demon king.

In order that no one would starve, I would devour the hunger itself!

Right!

I am the Demon Lord Orc Disaster. World predators.

However, you will still die.

But relax.

I will devour your sins.

What …?

You will devour ... my sins?

Ya

And not just yours, but yours too.

Mine .... ours .. all our sins …

Are you not greedy.

Correct .

I'm greedy.

Can you relax now?

Once you have, just sleep.

Ah…

I can't lose.

But…

Sleep, yeah. I feel .. warm.

One greedy.

Your goal is hardly quiet.

But you who have accepted my sins …

Thank you .

Now my hunger is finally fulfilled!

The Demon Lord Orc Disaster. Gelmudo.

Just now, his consciousness had finally disappeared.

≪ Ascertained. The Demon Lord Orc Disaster had disappeared.

Unique Skills [Starving Ones] have been absorbed by the unique skill [Predator]. ≫

I won .

Someone who is always hungry will never win against me who does not know hunger.

And, I opened my eyes.

Burdened with the sins of his entire race.

"I won . Sleep soundly, Demon Lord Orc Disaster Gelmudo! 」

My declaration resonates across the country if it is not silent.

And at that moment, the Goblins and Lizardmen cried out in excitement even as the Orcs complained desperately.

And thus, the Orc invasion had been stopped.

Based on his consciousness that had flowed into me until now, Gelmudo was actually the cause of this incident.

Moreover, he was actually supported by an unknown number of demon lords.

However, that Orc Lord had learned before establishing himself, so was somewhat unsure about it.

But I know enough to stay alert.

And besides, I can't just leave an orc.

The main problem has not been solved.

Next day.

History will forever remember the birth of the Great Jura Forest Alliance, and the conference in which it began.
