Zongman: About my reincarnation as a slime

Chapter 39·The big witch, Sally is the big witch
"It can be considered magic."

Lu Mingha looked at Sally who was looking at him with bright eyes and nodded. There is indeed magic in this world, but it is just the power used by humans. Monsters use 'skills'. The difference between the two is, One needs to be chanted in conjunction with the magic element in the body to activate, but the 'skill' is not required at all, just like instinct.

In this world, powerful and rare 'skills' are the key to becoming strong. As for magic, even Razan, who is known as the strongest magician of mankind in the Kingdom of Farmus in the original book, is only in Rimuru's An existence that was wiped out at will under the wrath of God.

Moreover, Rimuru has never awakened to become the 'true' Demon King, so 'skills' are the symbol of strength in this world.

It's just that, even if Lu Minghao explained these things to Sally, who was less than ten years old and grew up digging food from garbage dumps, she would definitely not be able to understand it.

"Oh! Minghao, Minghao, can Sally also learn this magic?"

Sally, who didn't know what Lu Minghao was thinking, just held Lu Minghao in her hand and looked at Lu Minghao with excitement and expectation on her face.

"Sally, will you leave with me?"

Lu Minghao did not answer Sally's question. Instead, he jumped out of Sally's hand with a slight force and landed on the ground. He asked seriously. Lu Minghao had already understood his identity and the world he lived in. He has decided to become a strong person. A strong person who can live as he pleases, instead of a weak person who can be trampled and killed at will.

Then it was destined that Lu Minghao could not stay in this ordinary village forever. There was not a lot of nutrients that Lu Minghao needed to grow. Having the talent of 'Gluttony' meant that Lu Minghao wanted to grow quickly. The best way was to hunt. , Devour.

"Minghao. Don't you want Sally?"

Sally looked at Lu Minghao on the ground, her big eyes full of tears, and her young face full of fear, loss, and sadness. Her thin body couldn't help but squat on the ground, trembling and huddled together.

"Where did I say I don't want you? I'm asking Sally if you are willing to leave here with me, leave this village, and leave the place where your father and Grandma Oran once lived?"

Lu Minghao looked at Sally who was huddled together like an abandoned little animal. He sighed and reached out his hand to gently stroke her hair. At this time, he also understood that no matter what Sally had gone through in the past, in the face of What it's like for other people.

But in front of Lu Minghao, whom she absolutely trusts and relies on, she is just a child under ten years old, and she will feel scared, sad, frightened and happy because of her words.

"Really? You don't want Sally?"

Sally slowly raised her head and looked at Lu Qiming with big, tearful eyes, and asked again uncertainly.

"Well, definitely not Sally."

"Then Sally will leave with you, Minghao. No matter where you go, Minghao, Sally will always be with you!"

The next second, Sally, who received Lu Minghao's affirmation, rushed forward and hugged Lu Minghao tightly, with an unprecedented seriousness on her tear-stained face, and looked at Lu Minghao's words with her big watery eyes.

"Ah."

Lu Minghao looked at the girl in front of him whose eyes were already red from crying, and there were still tears on her face, but her expression was unprecedentedly serious and she nodded vigorously. "By the way, Sally, I have to tell you something. Nine times out of ten, we will be the villain. If you follow me, Sally, you will become a witch."

After all, if Lu Minghao wanted to grow quickly, the cost would be to turn countless lives into "Gluttony" resources. It was destined that in the future, in the eyes of some beings, Lu Minghao himself would be absolutely "evil".

"Big witch, hehe! Sally is a big witch."

Under the sun, the girl looked at the slime in her arms with a bright smile on her face. At this point, the slime and the half-human, half-ghost girl had reached their first and final vow.
"Okay, stop making trouble Sally, it's time to find food for today. After all, if you want to become a great witch, you have to eat more food first."

A few minutes later, looking at Sally who was still holding him in circles with a happy face, Lu Minghao had to stop her. As for food, this was the main purpose of Lu Minghao and Sally coming out this time. Sally looked very healthy now. His appearance, physical fitness and vitality are even stronger than those of ordinary human children.

But this is also the most abnormal thing. You must know that Sally has half the blood of the ghost clan, and the ghost clan is considered a very powerful existence among the monsters in this world. At least those who have some qualifications after adulthood are middle-aged and middle-aged. Monsters, the strongest ones can even grow into high-ranking monsters.

Sally, who is half of the ghost race, can defeat lower-level monsters directly, but she is not like she is now. She cannot even defeat an ordinary adult human. This is entirely because of the nutrients her body has absorbed from eating in garbage dumps since she was a child. Massive deficiencies lead to underdevelopment.

In order for Sally to become stronger, the most important thing at the moment is to get enough nutrients for Sally's body. After the body is strong enough, Lu Minghao can give Sally the "power of gluttony" and transform it into his own family. .

From the beginning to the end, Lu Minghao never thought of protecting Sally like a canary. Since she planned to leave him, she was destined to face all kinds of enemies, and the blood of the ghost clan in Sally's body, Sally was meant to be warlike and murderous.

It's just because the body is underdeveloped now and the ghost bloodline has not been fully activated, but it also allows Sally to show her extraordinary ability. After all, how can an ordinary human child survive on his own after losing his parents at the age of five? Survive alone in the forest.

"Sally will have a full meal today. Sally is a great witch!"

Accompanied by Sally's cheering laughter, Lu Minghao picked up Lu Minghao in his arms and ran towards the place where he usually picked wild fruits. Of course, before leaving, Sally took away the half-meter-long small snake body that had fallen to the ground. He also picked it up and tied it with a bow around his waist.

after an hour.

Lu Minghao looked with interest at Sally, who was standing on tiptoes not far away, her little face flushed and holding out her hands to pick the fruit above her head. Then she turned around and looked into the depths of the dark woods behind her, where the rustling The sound is coming from over there.

"Should be enough."

Looking at the swaying bushes, Lu Minghao felt that it was almost done. After all, he had to live in this place for a few days in order to monitor the village. After a few days of catching them all at once, he would have nothing to eat.

Thinking of this, Lu Minghao quietly canceled the 'dream bait' he had released previously. ([Dream Bait]: Emits an odor of temptation that is irresistible to those who are weak, and drives them into madness.)
"Minghao, look, look, I finally picked the fruit!"

At this time, Sally, who finally picked the fruit not far away, was running towards Lu Minghao with her small hand up, waving the fruit in her hand, but the happy expression on Sally's face became extremely nervous and flustered in the next second. A big mouth full of fangs suddenly appeared behind Lu Minghao.
