Tensei Kenja – 159

PAGE 1

Even if the machine was hard to destroy, the people controlling it were not.

I could station the slimes all over the facility and have them take down anyone who tried to get in. I could keep the enemy away from the machine.

Surely even the Blue Moon of Salvation would not be able to do anything if they couldn’t get near to the device.

 

However…it would be hard to do that for an extended period of time.

While the slimes could take shifts, there was only one me.

 

And in spite of their numbers, the slimes couldn’t fight the Blue Moon of Salvation without magic.

That meant that in order to maintain control of the place, I would have to stay up all day and all night and support the slimes.

That would not last very long.

 

As a former corporate slave, I could stay up for three nights in a row, but I didn’t know if I could go any further than that.

If only there were two of me, we could take turns in maintaining security.

 

As I thought about this…a slime raised its voice.

 

‘There’s something over there as well!’

 

The slime was looking at something that was behind the device.

As the device was too big, I couldn’t see it with my own eyes…but I definitely detected the magic coming from it.

 

It was also big…and felt like a dragon.

In terms of size, the energy might have been even larger than the Universal Purification Device.

 

But unlike the Universal Purification Device, it seemed like a living creature. And there was something about it that felt weakened.

The main reason I hadn’t noticed it immediately was probably because it was hiding behind the device…but the fact that it was weakened probably affected this as well.

 

‘I’m going to take a look!’

 

The slimes said as they got closer to the source.

 

But even if the creature was weakened, it could still be dangerous.

After all, it was as strong as a dragon.

 

Strong monsters were strong even when they were weakened.

If anything, an injured monster is likely to be angry and could be even more dangerous than usual.

After all, I had only had to fight the Fire Dragon because it had gone berserk after being hurt by the rain.

 

And…we didn’t even know if this was a natural monster.

This was the Blue Moon of Salvation, after all.

It could be a manmade monster or a mutant that was created to protect the device. I would not be surprised if it was the case.

 

…But even a normal monster could attack the slimes on sight.

 

‘Be careful. We don’t know if it’s friendly or not.’

 

‘Okay!’

 

So saying, the slimes move to the back of the Universal Purification Device.
