Chapter 141: Strange Phenomenon (1/2)
—Slime Observation Record—
Today, two new slimes were added to my monster collection .
I’ll use this opportunity to summarize my findings .
Stone Slime
Skills:
Harden Lv2
Physical Attack
Resist Lv2
Digest Lv3
Absorb Lv3
Split Lv3
Mimic Lv10
A slime that looks just like your everyday stone that could be found anywhere outside .
Just as one might expect, its diet consists of stones .
So far, I have seen no signs of preference for certain types of stones or minerals contained within .
But when I gave it a stone, the slime did change its color to imitate it . Moreover, it was even able to replicate the texture .
I tried closing my eyes and allowed the stone slime to tumble onto the ground . When I opened my eyes next, I had lost track of the stone slime .
I was able to retrieve the stone slime thanks to the effects of the contract, but it is certainly difficult to find it with one’s senses alone .
Also, because of another experiment, I was able to find out that the stone slime likes earth-attribute mana . I was also able to find out that earth magic has an effect on its body .
I look forward to increasing the stone slime’s numbers and finding other slimes that show a response for other stones, such as magic stones, ores, and gems .
Weed Slime
Skills:
Increased Vitality Lv5
Photosynthesis Lv5
Digest Lv1
Absorb Lv1
Accelerate Growth Lv5
Split Lv8
Mimic Lv9
This is a slime that grows weed from its body . Just like the stone slime, the weed it grows is your everyday weed that can be found anywhere .
When this slime is hidden among bushes, it is very hard to find .
Its diet consists of weed . I tried feeding it my stock of medicinal and poisonous herbs, but it showed no interest .
However, it did eat the Kotsubuyarikusa that I picked up during the training session .

It’s possible that it’s a kind of weed, but it’s also possible that this guy just also happens to like grains .
I haven’t come to a conclusion on that just yet . First, I’d like to increase its numbers, so I have another specimen to compare it with .
Fortunately, the weed and fertilizers that it feeds on are easily acquired… And for free too .
The weed slime reproduces quickly .
I’m sure we’ll have a whole family of weed in no time .
Also, maybe it’s because it’s related to plants, but it likes earth, wood, and water-attribute mana .
Also, I tried giving it the fertilizer that the scavenger slime makes and it was happy to receive that too .
The fluff slime was also happy with the fertilizers, so maybe all plant-type slimes like them .
More observation and experimentation is necessary .
I can’t really get started on either unless I increase their numbers first .
“Oh, right . Speaking of increasing numbers…” [Ryouma]
Bloody Slime
Currently Under Observation .
But it’s no longer poisoned, so that’s one source of relief .
So far, I’ve confirmed the presence of antibodies toward bush snake poison within the blood slimes .

But they have always possessed the Poison Resist and Disease Resist skills .
As such, I expect that the bloody slimes should also possess antibodies toward other poisons and diseases .
I would like to confirm the existence of those .
To that end, I need to increase their numbers, but for that, I will be needing a considerable amount of feed .
Presently, most of the feed are procured from Zeke-san’s store .
But he is already generously giving me all the blood his store has .
Asking for any more is simply impossible .
As such, I need to find another source .
One candidate I thought of is the Saionji Company . They offer butchering services as well .
But if I were to rely on them, I will have to entrust a bloody slime to someone in the branch store at Renauph and have the bloody slime increase its numbers there .
If I were to think of someplace nearer that blood could be sourced from, the adventurers guild appears to be a prospective candidate, given that they are supposed to have a place allocated for gutting monsters .
I heard about that during the training a few days ago . Apparently, anyone could use it as long as they paid the fee .
I have never used it before, however, so I don’t know how they deal with the garbage from gutting the monsters .
Still, I might be able to get blood from there .
And even if I can’t get blood, I might able to acquire thrown bones and meat parts to feed to the slimes .
There’s no harm in asking . So, yes . Let’s try asking them .

“…Something like this, I guess . ” [Ryouma]
After thinking all of that to myself, I wrapped up my notes and put them away .
I’ve already eaten supper . Is there anything else I’m supposed to be doing today? …Ah .
“Come to think of it, what happened to my mushrooms?” [Ryouma]
Yesterday, some thin stuff grew out of them .
I should go take a look before I sleep . Having decided that, I went to the tunnels where I left the mushroom bed .
“…Why is it so noisy?” [Ryouma]
The moment I opened the door I installed yesterday, a sound reached my ears . Something small seemed to be clawing from the other side of the door . Did some small rats get inside?
“‘Search’… !?” [Ryouma]
Just to be safe, I casted Search . I got a response . There’s something on the other side of the door . There seems to be more than 10 or 20 of them too . Moreover, these aren’t small rats . They’re something smaller .
I immediately called out my sticky slimes and had them prepare sticky traps .
