31 Bounce you fool!

While the doctor and nurse were wrapped up in finding a solution for the snoring issue without resorting to poison and assassination of their patient, Lutini finally given up retaining its "inventory book form" and decided to change back into a slime.

"You finally thought it through! Welcome to the village! We have prepared a great feast for you!" said the elder slime.

Smiling, the slime replied, "I thank you for your kind offer, but I am a true blue carnivore and would not be able to share your joy in digesting vegetables."

A loud gasp spread amongst the crowd of slimes before silence settled.

"Did you hear that? It eats meat, he said he's a cannibal!" A slime whispered to his friend.

"What's a cannibal mum?" A baby slime asked overhearing the conversation. "Nothing you should know dear, we should really go home."

"But I want to know!" The defiant kid started to bawl loudly, "I want to know what cannibal is! Wah Wah!"

Like a domino effect, feelings of uneasiness begin to settle amongst the crowd of slimes, whispers and murmurs started to spread like wildfire.

"I am not a cannibal! I am just carnivorous!" Lutini shouted.

The elder was speechless, the chefs were insulted, and the villagers... the villagers decided to gather their torch and pitchforks.

With the herd mentality in full force, the crowds began to chant "kill kill kill" and moved towards Lutini in an arrowhead formation with the chefs leading the group.

"You fool!" the elder shouted to Lutini. "Look at what you have done! You can insult them but you cannot insult their chefs! You have incurred the wraths of our chieftains by refusing their food, you nincompoop!"

"The chefs are the chieftains!" Lutini realised it might really get hunted down and puntured and burnt, incurring the wrath of the chiefs always trigger a mob effect. Hence, the slimes were also nicknamed "the mob".

"Bounce you fool! Bounce away!" roared the elder slime before its eye reddened with madness.

"What the shit! What the shit!!!!" Lutini freaked out trying to escape the crazy mob. "Will I succeed in escaping or will I dieeee," Lutini cried deep in its heart and another trauma is added.
