“AGGH!! It found us!”

 

Just as the boar started looking in our direction, I heard the slime scream.

 

“You’re slimes! Don’t you have resistance to physical attacks?”

 

“We do, but not against such an enemy…AGHH! Here it comes! Help!”

 

My vision started to spin wildly as it rose into the air.

Apparently, it had been rammed into.

 

“Aggh!”

 

‘Shared Senses’ also allowed me to feel the damage through the slime.

Unfortunately, it seemed that there were limits to their resistance to physical attacks.

And the slime was so far away that I couldn’t even see it, which meant I couldn’t attack the boar with magic.

 

How could I help it in this situation—

As I thought this, I remembered that there was a skill called ‘Monster Strengthening.’

 

“Monster Strengthening!”

 

I shouted. My body then grew heavier along with a sensation of something leaving me.

When I checked my status, my HP had gone from 62 to 51. My MP was still around -200,000.

It seemed like a really bad idea to use magic when your MP was negative.

 

But still, it had an effect.

The slime was still getting blown away every time it was rammed, but it was no longer taking damage.

 

“Huh? It doesn’t hurt?”

 

I could hear the slime’s puzzled voice.

This…meant that it’s defense ability and physical attack resistance had gone up.

 

Still, it didn’t change the fact that it couldn’t damage the enemy.

…I was worried about my MP, but I would try one other thing.

 

“‘Attack Transfer’— ‘Fireball’!”

 

‘Attack Transfer’ was also a Tamer Skill.

If I was guessing correctly, this skill would…

 

Just as I was thinking this, a pale bullet appeared in front of the slime and—shot towards the boar.

It hit its target and blew it into the air.

 

“Huh? Huh?”

 

The slime was confused as the monster boar fell to the ground.

It looked like I had defeated it.

 

This skill…was strong.

Still, I had reached my limits in terms of strength.

The Fireball didn’t use much MP, and so the depletion was minimal…if anything, it had recovered a little since I used Hellfire of Death. But I only had 20 HP now.

…I was so hungry.

I might as well rest and then eat that boar we killed.

 

“All of you. Combine with the closest slimes so you don’t get attacked and then retrieve the monster.”

 

“Okay!”

 

So saying, the slimes headed to where the monster had fallen.

After a while, a single large slime came towards me.

On its head, was the large boar.

 

However, here I realized that there was one other problem.

I had no magic left to cook it with.

…Perhaps I really would have to look for a town.

 

“Since your physical attack resistance went up…can one of you break off for a minute?”

 

“Huh?”

 

I asked doubtfully as I grabbed a slime and held it up.

 

“I want to look for a town.”

 

“…Look for a town…but why are you carrying me?”

 

“So…I can do this!”

 

So saying, and while sharing its vision—I threw the slime high up into the air.

 

“AHHH!”

 

—Oh!

I saw a town.
