‘It’s heavy but quick!’
So the slimes noticed the difference as well.
“It’s not breaking.”
“It seems like it’s barely holding together. ….Barely.”
Master Gaiger said as he looked at the slimes.
I couldn’t tell–but to him, it was barely holding up now.
“But my slimes are in their normal state. They haven’t been buffed at all. And it could still break?”
“Monsters are as strong as their Tamers. …So, you don’t usually fight in this state?”
“No. I use strengthening magic first.”
“Do it.”
And so I cast the usual strengthening spells on the slimes.
However, the armor did not break.
“It seems to be fine.”
The slimes were moving around and yet the armor held together.
And like before, the slime seemed to be moving faster.
–Master Gaiger looked at this and said,
“Ahh. It’s no use. It won’t be able to bear it.”
…It didn’t look like it was about to break at all.
And the slime was moving around cheerfully.
What was he seeing?
As I thought about this—the armor that the slime was wearing suddenly cracked.
“What?”
“…Sorry.”
“There’s nothing to apologize for. If I wanted, I could have taken it off before it happened. …If anything, I’m quite happy to be put to the test after so much time.”
Master Gaiger said as he petted the Proud Wolf.
It seemed like he had agreed to make armor for my monsters.
