Apparently, my slimes were recruiting again.

So they were called Red Slimes. How simple…

 

As I mused on this, a slime shouted.

 

‘It’s okay!’

 

‘It will be fine for the next 3 days!’

 

So they had acquired information from the local slimes.

This slime information network was very useful…

 

…According to the slime, this mountain wouldn’t erupt for at least 3 more days.

I didn’t know how trustworthy this information network really was, but they do say that wild animals run away before an eruption. And monsters tended to have sharper instincts.

Besides, it was better than charging into the volcanic mountain without any information at all.

 

‘All right. Thank you. …Let’s go then.’

 

‘Yes!’

 

And so I retrieved all of the slimes and we continued on to the mountain.

By the way, the Red Slime was able to combine with my other slimes, and it had already befriended the slimes on my shoulders.

Though, it did seem like the combined slime was a little redder now…but as it was just one slime among hundreds, it was only a small difference.

 

‘So, how’s life in a volcanic mountain?’

 

‘Are there hot springs?’

 

‘Does the grass taste good?’

 

It seemed like the new slime was being bombarded with questions from the other slimes.

They were very curious about the places they hadn’t lived in before.

 

‘The leaves are delicious! …But the volcano is scary!’

 

‘Oh, it’s scary!’

 

I listened to their chattering while looking at my surroundings…

Just then, I thought I saw a flash of something huge and red coming from the forest.
