The Huge Slime (1)

"Edric! Save your daddy!"

Edric had been waiting patiently all this time and did nothing even though the little dragon itched to bombard the slimes that its father hated so much with his mana bullets.

However, he still held on to the task that his father gave him as he knew how important it was.

The second Edric had floated calmly inside the boss room, Edric had gathered mana inside his mouth and started condensing it.

He had learned that he could still cast a mana bullet with his mouth closed, albeit not as strong as he couldn't gather that much mana yet with his little mouth.

But he had also learned to keep the condensed mana inside his mouth and add more mana to it later after opening up his mouth to make him able to cast the mana bullet faster by pre-condensing the mana needed to cast the spell ahead of time.

And that's exactly what Edric had been doing all this time.

With the pre-condensed mana bullet inside his mouth, Edric floated still in the middle of the room while his eyes were locked onto the car-sized slime all the time.

He saw wherever it went and not a single second his eyes had left the slime.

So when the huge slime activated the green slime's skill and appeared in front of Kalle, Edric was more than ready.

"Edric! Save your daddy!"

The moment Kalle gave Edric the signal, Edric opened up his mouth, forced as much mana as he could into the pre-condensed mana bullet in the small window of time, and released it.

He aimed the mana bullet toward the huge slime that threatened to kill his father.

The mana bullet that had been pre-cast before was much faster than the green slime that was still gathering mana to cast its wind blade.

The mana bullet crossed the distance between Edric and the huge slime at a bullet speed as it reached its target in just a split second.

Although the green slime could feel the abundant amount of mana flying towards it, the green slime was in the midst of casting another spell and it couldn't use the first spell of the green slime once again.

As a result, the mana bullet hit its target in the dead center of the slime king and blasted another hole through the king's slime's body and once again incapacitating it.

Seeing the chance, Kalle hurriedly gave his order.

"GET EM BOYS!"

Without him having to explain what he meant, all the goblins moved as they proceeded to follow Kalle's prior command.

After Kalle's go signal, suffering hell began to befall the slimes as the three goblin shamans started casting their curses and gathered an abundant amount of dark mana in the room.

Anyone who stood before the three of them would have their knees shaken from the sheer amount of dark mana, including their own allies.

But the ordinary goblins and the goblin warrior didn't just stand still when their comrades were casting their curses.

The goblin warriors and ordinary goblins started beelining towards the slimes that stood separated in different directions as they waited for the perfect moment for the curses to hit.

Knowing the fire slimes were harder to deal with, Kalle sent Edric to deal with them. And the little dragon was more than happy to do it as he had wanted to obliterate the slimes to nothing from the second he entered the room.

As for Kalle, he went close to the huge slime as they started bombarding the huge slime with more attacks, making sure the huge slime didn't recover fast enough and attack the goblins.

When the three pentagrams made out of dark mana were finally completed, exploded, and showered all the slimes inside the room with dark mana as a powerful curse, that's when the melee goblins started going loose.

Bone axes were thrown forward, swung left and right, and wooden clubs smashed blobs on the ground.

The melee goblins dealt with the elemental slimes as fast as their body could move as they could feel their master's hatred towards the colorful bouncing ball-like creatures.

Edric flew into the sky, throwing his mana bullet toward the fiery red slimes that could still hold against the curses a little bit due to the number of slimes available in the room sharing the curse of the three goblins.

It would be hard for the goblins to deal with the fire slimes that could still cast fireballs even with their bodies in a constant state of turmoil from the dark mana.

However, Edric was a different creature from the goblins.

Simply by opening his mouth and gathering mana there, Edric sent out mana bullets that were way too fast for even a green slime to react to to deal with the red slimes.

Craters began forming on the ground where the fire slimes used to exist as their whole bodies were destroyed by Edric's mana bullet that was made from the condensation of a considerable amount of mana.

All the elemental slimes were slain at an impossibly fast rate with Kalle's army of goblins and the huge slime could do nothing about it.

The huge slime could feel its kin dying every passing second as it had a connection with them as their king.

But with its current condition, it was already hard for it to even continue existing.

Edric's mana bullet was powerful, but it wasn't as powerful as the mana bullet that Kalle shot at the start to incapacitate the huge slime for quite a considerable amount of time.

With Edric's mana bullet, the huge slime should have regained its ability to move again after a few seconds as it only lost about a quarter of its body.

However, that would only be the case if there were no follow-up attacks.

Kalle saw how much damage Edric's mana bullet had done and he wasn't about to gamble whether that much damage was enough to deal with the huge slime.

So the second after he finished sending his orders, Kalle cast more mana bullets and shot them toward the huge slime in front of him.

From only a decent hole in the middle of its body, the huge slime was now back to its original state when Kalle blasted a powerful mana bullet straight in front of its face.

Missing more than half of its body, it would have taken the huge slime a lot of time to regenerate and Kalle would be able to finish it with the amount of time it took for the huge slime to regenerate.

However, Kalle wasn't the only one who realized that.

The huge slime in question also knew that if it just let its body regenerate and stayed immobile while doing so, then it would exist no more.

That's why in the next moment, Kalle couldn't help but raise his eyebrows in annoyance when he saw the slime king split its body into two.
