Chapter 7 Meeting A Small Girl

"Ermm!!!"

Ren woke up and stretched his body. Same scenery as last time, but when he looked down, he noticed some changes.

His body increased again, and he felt his skin is tougher than last time.

He gained new skills again! One from the wolf, and two from evolution.

[Swift Movement: This allows you to move faster than sound.]

[Evolution from Mid-Teenage Slime to Adult Slime (Evolution Skill): Sneak: Let you dissipate your aura. As long as no movement is detected, no enemy/ no being will find you. (Limit: Creature ten times stronger than you, can easily detect you.)]

[(Evolution Skill): Morph Fire: Change blue skin into red flaming skin. Burn anything that you touch.]

"Wooo!"

Ren felt satisfied looking at this. He slid down the tree and looked at his surrounding. There was no one, or he didn't see anything in his sight.

He crawled slowly and cautiously. His guard was 100% raised.

"Aaaaa!!"

A scream echoed in the forest. Hearing a human scream, Ren couldn't hold himself. He slid himself to the source of the sound, climbed the tree, and looked at the situation.

A small girl who looked 12 years old stepped back, as a group of wolves surrounded her. She had a small bag full of herbs. Her green eyes that matched perfectly with nature shone brightly as drops of tear reflected.

With teary eyes, her body trembled. She felt that she will die today. Looking at the child, Ren didn't go down to save her.

Firstly, he examined the surrounding. Except for the five wolves, no other monster was around. Except for the little girl, he didn't find any other humans.

He sighed, taking a deep breath, he prepared himself for his heroic appearance.

"Yeahhhhh!!"

With a shrill, Ren landed on the ground.

Best

"Hello."

He waved his body and looked at the group. The wolves facing the girl turned behind and stare at him. They glared while gritting their teeth.

The girl peeked out and saw a slime. She titled her head, not knowing the situation.

Did the slime... come to save me?

She thought with her small brain.

"Grr!!"

The wolves took a step back and walked forward toward Ren. Ren didn't waver, he had a plan on his sleeve.

If it is dangerous, just run.

"Heh"

Showing his big white teeth, he teased the wolves which made them angrier.

Swoosh!

One wolf jumped at him.

Swoosh!

But Ren used Swift Movement and dodged the attack skillfully. Another wolf jumped and again Ren dodged it.

This time, he activated "Morph Fire!'

His body changed drastically. Only his eyes and teeth remained the same, his overall appearance turned red.

Warmth spread on his body and a hair of fire erected on his head. He looked kind of funny and cute not scary at all.

The wolves took a step back but laughed looking at Ren's stupid appearance.

They jumped at him again, but this time, Ren used swift movement and latched onto one wolf's head. He used 'stick' to glue himself to the wolf's head.

The wolf whose head was captured by Ren felt a burning pain in its head. A whimper and a painful scream escaped its mouth as it ran here and there hitting anything it found.

But Ren didn't drop, he just hummed while looking at other wolves who felt fear surfacing in their heart while looking at the wolf on fire, no, wolf on slime.

In one minute, blood dripped on the ground. The wolf stopped struggling and lay on the ground. The fur burnt and the skin turned into ashes. Wolf's skull could be seen. As Ren felt that it was dead, he spread his body and ate it in one gulp.

He felt refreshed. Except for that, he felt nothing. He looked at the other wolves who ran. Their brain worked hard to process that they can't beat a mere slime.

Leaving their pride, they ran off.

Only the girl was left. Ren deactivated his skill and returned back to the old blue slimy thing.

"...Hello?" Ren crawled slowly toward the girl.

"H-Hello." The girl greeted back. She was still a little scared of him. But she didn't run, she would just be dead if she run or she thought.

"Phew. Thank god. You can understand me."

"Yeah?"

The girl was pretty confused by his word, but as she realized that she was communicating with a monster, she fell into a trance.

"Wait, wait! We can communicate! Monster and a human!!!"

The girl's eye glowed scarily. Like a child had found a new toy to play with, the girl's eye looked the same. A chill run down Ren's body as he looks at the girl.

"Yeah, I guess so." He replied.

"By the way, my name's Ren." He introduced himself.

"Monster has a name?" She titled her body but shook her head. "My name is Lina Herlock."

Herlock? Why does it sound familiar?

"Anyway, why are you in the forest, Lina?"

"I was off to collect medical herbs to sell it in the town."

"Town!!! Where is this town?!" As the word town came out of Lina's mouth, Ren felt excited.

Finally, I can see a human settlement.

He thought God has bless him.

"Ummm, the town is a ten-minute walk from here."

"Ohh!!"

Ren's eye twinkled with curiosity. He wanted to learn more about this world.

"Then let me escort you to your town."

"Pfft!!" Lina burst out into laughter. "Monster, on top of that a slime, will escort me to a human town. Ahahaha! This is hell funny."

"..."

Ren felt like he has been insulted. But he let it pass for now.

"Ok, ok. Let's go. Just don't get caught." Lina said while giggling.

"OK!!" Ren agreed, and they both off to the town.
