I glanced at the goblins.
Although unfortunately for me I am preparing to run away.
He’s not looking away from my direction and continues to stare.
I can sense intelligence from this one. Unexpectedly a conversation might be feasible.
Will it understand….
I place my thought on speaking, and tried if they will understand me.
「Nice to meet you, will do right? I am a Slime named Rimel.」(Rimel)
The Goblins made commotion.
Some of them threw weapons with ordinary clothes.
I don’t understand anymore.
「Gugan, “Tsuyokishayo! We fully understand yoo-ur strentgh you-sama!!! Understand voice!!!」(Goblin Leader)
(TL: mind fuuu.. the goblins are stupid XD)
Mu? Is my thought too strong?
I won’t get my intention across with this. Don’t get scared.
「My bad. The adjustment are not working well yet.」(Rimel)
Well, I apologized.
「Awesome. There is no need to apologize to us!」(Goblin)
I think they’ve understood.
By the way I used Japanese. It’s surprising that they understood.
「So, what do you need with me? I don’t have things like business with what’s further?」(Rimel)
They are speaking politely so, I politely interact with them or so I thought…
But they are excessively scared of me, so I confidently tried to exit.
「So it’s like that. Past us is our country. We tend to be vigilant if a strong monster’s presence is sensed, since then.」(Goblin)
「A strong monster’s presence? I can’t sense something like that…?」(Rimel)
「Guga, gugaga. You joke! Even if you are in that form we will not get tricked!」(Goblin)
It seems, like they’ve fully misunderstood me. (Comment! The one who misunderstood is him!)
They seem to be taking me as a strong demon taking the form of a slime.
In the end Goblins are low class among the monster but they are still famous.
Then the conversation with the Goblin flowed to me becoming a hindrance to them after a while.
Even if they’re thin looking, they are nice.
While thinking that, I accepted their invitation to their village.
Along the road I hear a lot of things.
The fact that after they lost their god monster activities increased.
And so on.
It seems like the exchange of conversation made it like a shadow with the use of 『Magic Perception』.
While talking with them I followed them.
The village is, eh? I feel like I want to mutter those words.
Was I guided to the “nicest building”? they’ve got.
In the sense of my previous life, slime is way better, again! It’s that level of a house.
「Sorry for the wait. Dear guest」(Goblin)
While saying that a Goblin came inside.
While that Goblin was supporting, the leader Goblin that was with me is escorting.
「Ah, no no. I didn’t wait that long. Don’t worry!」(Rimel)
I made a business smile.
With a smile the negotiation came my way. A fearful skill if I do say so myself.
Even though I don’t know what the negotiation is…
「I apologize for not procuring something much better. I am the head of this village.」(Head Goblin)
While saying that, they served a tea-ish thing.
I sip the tea. (It look as if I am only covering the tea bowl.) (TL: did you get the joke? I almost laugh which I barely do…)
Is it good or bad… I examined the ingredients but, they’re not poison.
I felt the goblin’s concern.
「So, troubling yourself to invite me, seems like you have business with me, right?」(Rimel)
I threw a straight ball.
The head trembled yet it came resolved and asked.
Then he spoke.
「You know the matter about monsters activities increasing right?」(Head Goblin)
I heard that on the way here.
「Our god, the conferrer of this land’s tranquility, one month ago has vanished…
We didn’t cower and fought back yet, it was tough…」(Head Goblin)
Fumu.
Is that why the Goblins save me.
「I understand the situation. However I am a slime, do you think I can satisfy your hopes?」(Rimel)
「Hahaha, so modest! A slime can’t bring out that much magic energy!
Why are you using such a form, we cannot guess, anyway, you are a demon with a name, right?」(Head Goblin)
Magic Energy…huh?
I renewed my 『Magic Perception』 view, and tried examining myself.
It might be when I mimicked and used 『Body Armour』 and so on, if I noticed it…
While I was striding the main road, it’s like opening a window to society, making me a prey.
This is no good! An obvious out!
No monster will fight against a dangerous slime.
Now that it came to this, it’s despair.
「Fufufu. As expected of the head, you noticed huh?」(Rimel)
「Well of course! That much of appearance can’t hide what wafts the air!」(Head Goblin)
「You’ve seen through huh. You guys are surprisingly praiseworthy!」(Rimel)
I gradually rode the mood!
In the same time, I can try to ask if I can remove this ominous aura = magic energy.
I anxiously withdraw Magic Energy, like a trick in controlling Demon essence outside the body.
「Haa…. We are getting tested right! That really helps. Many fear the magic energy so….」(Head Goblin)
I succeeded in hiding my magic energy.
However.
Will the monster irritatingly attack me?
As a result the “alright” thing is not good. (TL: Alright is in english)
「I see. Even though you see my magic energy you’ll come and talk to me without fear, how promising!」(Rimel)
The hell with promising… I’d like to retort myself, but I held it in like an actor.
「Haha! Thank you. …So, I will not inquire further for your reason of hiding your true form. However…
I have a few request.Will you hear it? 」(Head Goblin)
Well, I knew it will head that way.
「Depending on the content. So say it.」(Rimel)
Without breaking my arrogant attitude, the Head Goblin asked.
The contents of the talk were as follows.
It seems like there are a few village in the outskirts from here.
So, the soldier inside that bears a name (Nemudo) seems to be the problem.
The other Goblin village abandoned this town.
Even if the Head Goblin and Leader wants to talk, they only receive cold shoulders.
The Head Goblin show his frustration while talking.
「I see…,So, how many lives in this town? How many can fight?」(Rimel)
「Yes, this town sums up to 100 people. 60 with the women added.」(Head Goblin)
Indescribably unreliable.
However, I can somehow grasp the number, how wise of the goblin.
「Fumu. Do you know the tyro monster’s number and species?」(Rimel)
「Yes. A wolf demon, a fanged wolf species. Originally, a single opponent, with 10 goblins dealing with it is a maybe..,
And it’s about a 100 demon…」
Ha? What’s with that impossible game…
They weren’t the eyes of a someone joking. It is a serious looking eye.
Or I would rather call them a sincere look with a few impurity.
「Those Goblin soldiers did they knew that they can’t win so few are coming?」(Rimel)
「…No, these information came from the goblins that risked their life to obtain it…」(Head Goblin)
I see, I heard a bad thing.
And it seems like the Nemudo Goblins is the son of the Head Goblin and the Leader Goblin’s older brother.
Now that I heard it, I think of what to do.
Tears flowing from his eyes were my imagination right… it’s my imagination.
I went with arrogance. That is the true form of a feared demon! But.
「I want to confirm one thing. If I saved the village what do I get in return?
What will you give me?」(Rimel)
I can also save them on a whim.
It’s not an easy enemy.
It’s not an easily acceptable request.
「We offer our loyalty! Please bestow upon us your protection. If Rimel-sama does we will offer our loyalty!!!」(Head Goblin)
To tell the truth, that kind of thing won’t please me.
If I were a human, I may hold a filthy grudge.
Above all, the Head Goblin’s eye. Is completely relying on me.
It goes without saying that I am weak with a request.
While grumbling, while complaining to my junior, I listen to my client or a senior….
「Alright! I heard your wish!」(Rimel)
I agreed with exaggeration.
With this I became the Goblin’s main protector.
