Level Up

Holding the main core of the slime, Reve sighed, "Whew, it's finally over."

The slimes were a common species but their abilities were far from common.

The reason they were not viewed as a dangerous threat was that their weaknesses were revealed to the masses.

As long as anyone remembers them, they would be able to take care of the slimes.

It was the same for Reve.

First, he could tell that the blue slime would be able to take care of the red lion cub.

Second, he understood the slime would be bloated when digesting the body of the cub.

It would be like a pregnant human woman. Weak and defenceless. That would be the time to strike!

Nonetheless, the slime's ability to absorb physical impact would deter if he were to strike.

Hence, he focused on attacking the "nucleus" of the slime, the main core.

Slimes were different from other magical creatures. They were formed from energy.

They had two bodies, the main body and the outward body.

Just like their names, one was the real one, while the other one was like a suit of armour.

To enable a one-hit kill, he had to target the main body which was the core positioned at the center of the slime.

And he did just that!

.....

"Now, what do I do with this?" wondered Reve as he examined the blue ball on his palm.

"According to the books, slime cores could be used for different purposes. The most common one is to directly consume it, which would affect one's constitution positively or negatively. It is also the one with high risk."

Playing with the ball, Reve made up his mind, "I don't know the other methods. Also, that refers to humans. As a magical beast, I should have some degree of immunity. Meow. Moreover, it looks quite sweet."

Not wasting his time, Reve took a sizable bite from the slime core.

He felt a stinging pain on his tongue, but it wasn't enough to make him quit savouring the core.

After three bites, there was nothing left.

"Hmmmmm…..it has a natural fresh taste."

Rectangular silhouettes began to pop up on his face, accompanied by a familiar voice.

"Ahhh, I have ascended," commented Reve.

Due to the numerous catalysts, his body became twice as strong.

He reckoned he wouldn't be seeing something like this in a while.

Anyway, he was tired. All those planning took a toll on his mental mind.

He needed to sleep.

Softly, Reve climbed on a tall tree. He was lucky his claws were able to dig into the flesh of the tree.

As soon as he reached the top, he rested on a sturdy branch and closed his eyes.

It had been a rough day.

...…

First Island, Glasto Archipelago, Beast Continent.

It was a series of islands at the borders of the Beast Continent.

The magical creatures here were wild and uncivilized. Still, they were as strong as those in the forests of the main continent.

The First Island was closer to the other continents. Hence, it had its fair share of adventures looking to make its fortune on the island.

As daylight blessed the land once more, a certain cat nudged his lazy eyes open.

"A new day, huh? I'm still tired," yawned Reve.

He stopped his complaints as he noticed the downpour of rain.

The cold rain wet his fur but Reve was okay with it. He realized he had yet another reason to continue sleeping.

As he closed his eyes once more, his sixth sense managed to pick up on something.

"Meow, what is it this time?"

He looked on the ground and saw a group of figures. coming from the horizon.

Normally, his sixth sense shouldn't have been able to pick up their arrival but the noises they made were too loud to be ignored.

"Is that the cry of a baby?" mused Reve.

He drowned out the sound of raindrops and focused on the group.

Yes, it was the cry of a child. A human child!

As Reve had read about his location, he understood that it wasn't strange to see humans here.

He felt strange as he ascertained the race of the intruders.

They were humans, clothed in shining pieces of armour. They were clearly not here for fun.

Should he appear in front of them?

Just like Earth, they would now before an exquisite being like him, right?

Wait a minute, people of this world lack aesthetics. They can't comprehend his innate beauty.

If Myrna was here, she would scold them for that.

Whatever, it's their luck.

For now, he would ignore them.

He would never admit that he was scared of being turned into cat meat.

Also, this group was quite dumb. Who brings a human child to a place of slaughter?

Surely, this isn't how they train their children, is it?

The cries of that naughty child were attracting all sorts of troubles.

From his vantage point, he could see a large snake moving towards them.

He could see a blue slime sneaking up on them.

He could also see a small rodent spying on them.

It was a three-tag team!

Yet, the humans were so embroiled in specifying the human child that they failed to notice what they normally would have.

A smile arched on the cat's face.

He could understand why the neutral parties are always the ones to enjoy.

From his position, he hoped to see a fun fight!

That would teach the humans not to ignore his beauty!
