Anime: About That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime

Suddenly, just as Shuer and his companions were about to leave, shadows appeared in front of them. Seeing these people, Shuer and the others showed expressions of relief and hurried forward.

"Shuer, what exactly happened?"

Airequia looked at the young man in front of him, his plump face carrying a gentle smile as he asked softly, as if a spring breeze was blowing, smoothing out the fear and unease in Shuer and the others' hearts.

"Lord Airequia, that person said her name is Nina, and she was once a resident of this city. She seems to be planning to destroy this place and told us to escape."

Shuer, who was originally filled with fear, gradually relaxed and quickly told Airequia everything Nina had said before. However, Shuer didn't see that after he finished speaking, the faces of Airequia, Seros behind him, and the many soldiers gradually became serious.

The gentle smile on his face disappeared little by little, his expressionless face full of iron and blood and indifference, exuding an aura like a silent weapon. This was their true appearance. The approachable and gentle demeanor before was completely a disguise.

"Nina... so it's that little girl from the Tuka Squad."

Airequia still wore a gentle smile as he looked up at the pair of angry pupils in the flames opposite him, greeting her like an elder. He remembered each and every one of Airequia's residents clearly, whether it was the first Airequia he built or the later...

Airequia remembered the appearance, personality, and age of every resident clearly.

"Lord City Lord, Lord Captain of the City Guard, long time no see... I've been thinking about you all the time!"

In the flames, Nina's voice, filled with indifference, anger, and killing intent, slowly sounded. Even Shuer, who didn't know what had happened, could clearly feel the unforgettable hatred.

"Seriously, why did Nina come back to die?"

Opposite, Airequia looked at the girl in the flames who couldn't wait to tear him apart, with a complicated expression. If Shuer hadn't said Nina's name, he wouldn't have been able to recognize Nina with her almost completely changed appearance and strength.

And as long as Nina didn't want revenge, she could have lived safely...

"However, Nina, I still have to thank you... Thank you for allowing me to perfectly complete His Majesty the Emperor's order, without failing His Majesty the Emperor's trust!"

In the next second, the smile on Airequia's lips became incomparably cold, and his plump body exuded a powerful aura. For him, His Majesty the Emperor's order was a must. If Nina hadn't delivered herself to his doorstep, it would have meant that there was a slight omission or error in his previous mission.

And this kind of error and omission was not allowed to happen for Airequia. Now, he was sincerely grateful, thanking Nina for giving him the opportunity to correct the 'error'.

"Lord Airequia, everything is ready."

At this time, Seros, who had been standing silently beside Airequia, suddenly stepped forward and looked at Nina, saying slowly. Just now, while Airequia deliberately used words to stall and distract Nina, he had quietly ordered the soldiers to reinforce the magic barrier.

This time, they would never allow Nina to live... Because a living Nina was a disgrace to them, who were loyal to His Majesty the Emperor, and an error in not perfectly completing His Majesty the Emperor's order.

"Oh right, I almost forgot something."

Hearing Seros's words, Airequia nodded expressionlessly, then turned to look at Shuer and the others, who were already stunned, and slowly raised his hand towards them.

"Lord Airequia, Lord Seros, what are you doing?"

Shuer looked at Airequia and the others with unfamiliar faces in disbelief. At this time, he didn't understand what was happening at all. Why would Airequia and Seros, who were once gentle and admired by everyone, become like this?

"You know too much."

A cold, calm, and emotionless voice rang in Shuer's ears. In the next second, silvery-white lightning flashed, and Shuer and the others, who had turned into coke under Airequia's cruel gaze, fell to the ground, their half-cooked faces still carrying the fear and disbelief before their deaths.

"Next, it's your turn."

Airequia slowly turned his head to look at Nina, his originally black pupils turning into golden vertical pupils. His plump body gradually became strong and fit, and his exposed skin was covered with purplish-black scales. A pair of huge black fleshy wings spread out behind him, and a horn like a bone spur appeared on top of his head.

"Roar!"

In the next second, a terrifying and ferocious dragon roar sounded. Airequia, who had completely transformed into a half-human, half-dragon, cruelly sized up Nina. Beside Airequia, who had also undergone a great change in appearance, Seros, who had turned into a half-human, half-wolf, was also grinning at Nina.

"It's been a long time since I've transformed into this form. It really is... comfortable!"

The corners of Airequia's mouth split open, and sharp fangs appeared. Since receiving His Majesty the Emperor's order, he hadn't returned to this form for a long time.

"Lord Airequia, calm down. Don't forget that there are still those experimental subjects outside. If you accidentally kill them, it will delay His Majesty's plan."

At this time, Seros, who was on the side, reached out and patted Airequia to remind him. After all, with Airequia's cruel nature, if he wasn't controlled and became completely excited, the commotion caused by his powerful strength might even kill all the experimental subjects outside.

"Understood."

Airequia lowered his head slightly and glanced at Seros, nodding to show that he understood. He was willing to give everything for His Majesty the Emperor's plan, otherwise, how could he and Seros, the elite of the demon army, be here playing house with those refugees.

"My anger, my hatred, roar in hell. For the joy of birth, for the hatred of birth, for the despair of birth, roar with dignity... Flame Hell!"

At this moment, Nina's indifferent and angry voice sounded. As Nina's voice echoed, black revenge flames began to surge. Endless flames spread around Nina like a tide. In the blink of an eye, the entire magic barrier was completely filled with flames.

Under the scorching heat, the air was completely burned away, and the ground, ruins, and all matter began to melt and evaporate. Even Airequia and Seros, who hadn't paid much attention to Nina and thought she was just easy prey, became serious and focused.

"A demon... or rather, a witch!"

Airequia looked up at Nina, who was roaring in the flames. At this moment, he finally understood that Nina had abandoned her former human identity for revenge and transformed into a vengeful witch under endless anger and hatred, and the black flames were her endless anger and hatred.
