Fein's POV
After Sofia left, the monsters in the gathering in the Area suddenly circled us. There are exactly four monsters.
I was confused on why the fuck they are suddenly being friendly and playing with us like this. Aren't they afraid that we would attack them?
Beside Voli are two Slimes that are staring at Voli intently. It was blue and green slimes that have the same size as Voli. The two slimes were changing shape as Voli watch them with glee.
'Voli still watch this thing?'
I looked at the Slimes that imitated the shape of stars, circles, cubes, and even Voli.
I couldn't help but think about the information about slime as a monster in my past life. Slimes are the weakest monsters in the novel and manga that I have read. I remembered that they are even called "ooze" in certain games. They are first introduced as common monsters in role-playing games. How did I know? Because I was an avid gamer myself! Iruna, Toram, and many more. Just like their name, they don't have distinct characteristics and shapes. They are liquids that can change shapes. A gelatinous liquid to be precise. The size differs even with slimes. Just like the two in front of Voli.
In my guess, these two slimes are probably already boss characters amongst slimes. Some have intelligence like this two, and sub only move with their subconscious.
Slimes have different kinds of abilities. Dissolve is one of them, the best use of this is to throw it at a woman and let it dissolve clothes!
*Ehem*
I choked after my thoughts reach the forbidden part.
Now, on the other hand, beside me are two Reindeers that are pure white with yellow eyes. They look like sacred creatures. Holy and untainted. What the heck do they want from us? Do they just want to play?
I used my probe for assurance. After all, when push comes to shove at least I can make countermeasures for them. I no longer underestimate my enemy's last time. I already reflect and never want to repeat what happened when I fought the evil cultist. Recalling this, I shook my head, I'm also disappointed in myself. To think that I'm that stupid and arrogant huh...

*Hiss!*
'Fuck! This slime is more badass than the games that I have played!' I took a deep breath.
But I suddenly remembered a terrible slime in a certain anime that transformed into a demon king. And I compared them to the current ones. I slowly calmed down after. There are no comparisons. It was like a child compared to an adult.
But yeah, these slimes are quite cute and have decent abilities.
'Should I bring them out later?'
I pondered while looking at Voli rarely gets along awell with others. Then I looked at the Reindeers in front of me.

'Holy shit'
Was shocked after seeing the result of my probe. Another holy beast!
This is my second time seeing a Legendary beast up close. And it is Holy Beast at the same time... Ahmm what the fuck is holy beast again???
I decided to ask Sofia next time.
I attempted to touch their fur. The two reindeers didn't resist as my palm caressed them. What's more, was, they even like the way they behave is similar to a pet.
Just like that, I played with the beast in the forest. It's not that I want to bring them out, well I want to but I don't know if I can bring them out here. Probably not right? After all, if it was. The human would have already done that. But there's no precedent at all, or are they keeping it secret?

Sofia's POV
If I said that I wasn't nervous then I am lying. This is the first that I experience to fly in the back of a beast.
As the speed increased, I noticed a barrier protecting me from getting harmed due to the speed of the air. I deduce that it was the skill of Blue Eagle. Thinking of the prospect of having a tamed beast, I clenched my fist with excitement.
I looked down at the giant trees that were now as small as ants in my view.
"If he only joined me, it would awesome and I would enjoy it more," I thought with some disappointment.
"What's your name? Should I name you one?" Sofia shouted at the Blue eagle because of the wind current that was interfering with the sound.
The eagle shrieked happily after hearing Sofia would give it a name. Because it just means that she acknowledged her.
Seeing this, Sofia felt joyful. She pondered what name is good for a Blue Eagle. "
"Hmmm... Let's call you Aoi from now on" I said to the Blue Eagle.
Aoi chirp loudly showing its agreement with the name its new master thought of.
"Let's go back" I tapped Aoi's back to signal it that I want to go back.
After understanding my intention Aoi turn around while making an arc in the air. The clouds parted into two, I really felt alive at this moment and my adrenaline was rising.
The speed of Aoi had already surpassed the Griffon by at least 3x of the speed of sound. But that was quite understandable because the Griffon was carrying too much weight on its back.
After a while, I finally saw Fein and Voli surrounded by what it seems four monsters.
I was curious about what they are doing. So, I commanded Aoi to fly faster.
