Eri and Rei left the slime dungeon after collecting all the medical treasures. They traveled east, towards the land of demons.

Eri believed a place like that will allow Rei to grow and flourish. A human country would stifle his potential. Besides, she came to a different world, but she's yet to meet cat girls, bunny boys, elves or vampires!

... ...

Like before, Rei turned into a slime and stayed in her tent at night. They woke up at mid-morning and Eri made a simple breakfast with dried vegetables and tomatoes. Fuuu, these things are convenient when I need to make soup on the go~

But now that she has a living storage, she would like to store an entire farm in her space!

Although Rei didn't have the soup, he swallowed the plant vitality around their camp. The grass was instantly shrivelled dry.

Eri stared at the circle of dead plants. Oh dear, it would bring trouble if people saw Rei doing this. Eri warned Rei to eat discreetly next time.

... ...

The two travelled until they reached a wide clearing. The air was slightly moist and cooler than earlier. They could also hear the deafening sound of a waterfall.

When they arrived at the bank of a flowing pool, the scene was breathtaking. Thick clouds of water gushed down a rocky gorge, and large brown rocks dispersed around the pool.

Let's sit a little away from the waterfall~

Eri and Rei found a large rock with a flat surface and scraped off the moss. The moss shouldn't be wasted, it's good for planting! Eri threw several pieces in her space.

When she sat down, she felt a cool energy fluctuate into her body. Her soul and spirit were instantly refreshed, and the fatigue from walking was washed away. Were waterfalls always this amazing?

She flicked open her active status screen, and her health points were slowly jumping up. No joke! It's really a different world, even waterfalls are magical!

Maybe she can bring Alfie out to recover. He hasn't woken up from moulting yet. This sort of gentle recovery energy is perfect for him.

... ...

Snap!

A water whip slashed without warning at where they were sitting. Hooking his arm around her waist almost instantly, Rei jumped backwards with Eri.

"Get out you little shits! This lord has claimed the site!"

Someone? That haughty voice sounds so familiar...

Eri looked at Rei. Maybe they should leave. But Rei's hand manipulated the pool water and sent forth a water boulder.

Whoosh!

The boulder rammed into the direction of the voice and broke open the curtain of the waterfall.

The man had nowhere to run. He chanted a spell to defend himself and escaped underwater.

[Water Shield]!

Glub, glub....

Shaaaah!

The man made an unexpected turn and emerged from the plunge pool. He slapped the pool and obstructed their vision with a shower of water.

[Ice Blade]!

The blades of ice shot out of the water. Rei reacted swiftly and waved several pieces of pebbles out of his space. Each piece struck the ice blades at their weakest points.

Clang! Clang!

Lines of fissure ran through the ice blades and they shattered back into the pool.

Rei's move shocked the man. So accurate? And with pebbles? He winced and took a closer look at his enemy.

"...It's you!! It's you again, shit slime!"

The fig leaf covering his nether region flapped dangerously from the excitement.

Rei covered Eri's eyes.

"Do not dirty the sight of my wife."

"...that's why I told you to get out!"

"Streaker."

"You little shit!"

"Your family jewels are dangling. Ugly. Dirty. Go away, please."

The white-haired man hesitated and adjusted the fig leaf.

Eri was speechless, Rei's vocabulary was getting richer by the day, but he never forgets to be polite. Were slimes always this civilised?

"This Fox Lord is a taking a shower! Remove yourselves, you make my air filthy!"

"..."

Eri looked at Rei again, and Rei looked back her. They were both holding back from laughing.

The man saw that the two did not move with threats or reason. Should he change tactics? There's no way he can beg!

"This fox lord is a germaphobe! I am suing for psychological damage!!"

Eri bursted into a laugh. She's never seen someone so self important!

"This is public property."

Rei gave a short answer, ignored the man, and took Eri by the hand back to the rock.
