The Small Sage Will Try Her Best In The Different World From Lv.1!-Chapter 32: Epilogue: And From Now On

One week passed by after defeating the Goblin King. We returned to the Izel fort and led some hectic days. Although the Monster Flood ended, the monsters in the Demon Forest still continued to increased.

But that also calmed down after a while.

That was why, it was time to seriously think of the future. 𝙛𝔯𝒆e𝔀e𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃e𝚕.𝒄𝗼𝗺

Going a little bit south from here would lead us to the Earth Labyrinth. If one were to go there, one could find the key to the Sage Tower.

The ones who would accompany me were Amanda-san and Argo-san who had received one year holiday after the Monster Flood. Also Frank-san who said that it looked fun, so he would be tagging along.

And then, there was one more person.

It was Karin-san who was conducting a research on slimes at the Izel fort.

Actually, the slimes of this world were living together with people and were very helpful.

Long time ago, there was a certain monster researcher who had an eye on the special characteristic that anything put in the slime’s body would melt. Then, the slimes underwent a selective breeding so that they won’t attack people and could only process trashes.

With that, the slime farmers increased, and it seemed that they were dealing with trashes and leftovers. The slimes that had undergone selective breeding were transparent just like jelly, and they didn’t multiply arbitrarily.

“But look, they only multiply when they’re given food during Slime day, don’t you know?”

My eyes turned round at Amanda-san’s explanation.

“Slime day…What is it…?”

For some reason, it was a slime circumstances that I hadn’t expected.

“You don’t know?”

“…Yes.”

Even in Elysia Online, nobody said anything about keeping slimes in their houses!

In addition, it’s my first time hearing about Slime day.

“Slime day is the longest day of the year.”

Hmm.

In other words, Slime day is a summer solstice.

“What happens to the multiplied slimes?”

“About that, you see. People who throw them away never cease to exist.”

“Throw them away?”

“After that, don’t they become wild and stray slimes? That’s why there are lots of slimes around the towns and around the forts.”

“Stray slimes…”

Moreover, it seems that they mutate based on what they eat, and this is still being researched upon.

Karin-san, an expert in the slimes, was—how should I put it?—she was a very peculiar person. 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦ｍ

She was a slime mania who even had a slime-shaped hat and she wore a pair of thick glasses, perhaps it was because she overdid herself during the research.

She was seventeen years old, but she was a person whose speech was really old-fashioned. The clothes she was wearing were shrine maiden-like.

That Karin-san said that she wanted to go together with us in order to study the slimes.

Eh-. I wonder if that’s alright?

Also, the beastman Virna-san too—

“Eeh. Virna-san also wants to come along?”

“Yeah. The men over there threw the Izel fort’s priesthood to Simon. The [Dawn’s Seeker] has been inactive for awhile.”

In response to Virna-san who said that as she shrugged her shoulders, Frank-san laughed with his lively voice.

“Hahhaha. Sorry, Virna.”

“Frank, don’t you think that’s a bit cruel?”

“But well, it’s also a good opportunity for you. After going through the Earth Labyrinth, we will be going to the Fire Labyrinth that’s located in the Urg beast kingdom. You can return home after a long time.”

Frank-san shrugged his shoulders and Luan was sweetly crying, “Kyukyuu” on top of his head as if it was agreeing.

Waa. So cute.

Noir who was at my feet rubbed its body on me as if it understood that I was thinking Luan was cute.

“Nyaa.”

Geez. How can my child be this cute?

As I held Noir up in my arms, I said, “I like Noir the best!” as I hugged the small black cat tightly.

Yo~sh. Let’s seek the key to the Sage Tower, and let’s do my best despite being small. Ou~!
