Slime simulator

For two leisurely days, I lay in the apothecary shop, teaching Lucy how to brew potions and teasing Dani.

“Good times always pass quickly.”

On the third night, Suk looked at Goring, who was standing opposite him.

Goring looked at Suk somewhat restrainedly, with a hint of sympathy in his eyes.

After more than two days of investigation, he had grasped some information and found clues about Luso.

Having investigated to this point, he found that the clues stopped there, and he couldn't continue searching.

Moreover, he didn't dare to go too far forward, lest he alert the enemy.

Therefore, he immediately came to Suk to report the news.

He was extremely shocked that Suk already knew about Luso's abnormality.

Because, according to what he had found, Luso's background was very mysterious and had been deeply hidden all along.

He couldn't imagine what method or channel Suk used to know that there was a problem with Luso.

Thinking of this, he felt even more that the person in front of him, wrapped in clothing, was mysterious.

During these few days, in addition to investigating Luso, he also investigated Suk's information.

However, compared to Luso, whose identity became more and more confusing the more he investigated, Suk's identity was much simpler.

But it was also extremely tragic.

His parents died when he was young, and he depended on his only grandfather.

Later, his grandfather died of illness, and the young Kern was sent to an orphanage.

In the orphanage, the thin, timid, and introverted Kern was bullied in various ways.

After that, an accidental fire broke out, destroying everything in the orphanage, and only Kern survived.

Although he survived, his whole body was severely burned, and his appearance was extremely ugly. It was said that he was covered in scars, and there was not a single piece of intact skin on his body.

That's why he wrapped his body in thick clothes all day long, afraid to show his true face.

Later, Kern went to the mountains infested with magical beasts and fought them to the death.

Only fighting could make him temporarily forget the pain, and he also wanted to end his miserable life by dying under the claws of magical beasts.

However, fate did not take Kern.

Kern frequently broke through in his battles with magical beasts, and he also obtained the inheritance of a strong man from the previous dynasty, and his strength advanced by leaps and bounds…

Kern's experience can be called magical.

Suk was speechless at Goring's expression.

Ever since driving away the magical beasts that disturbed Dawa Town, he had been praised by the residents of the entire Dawa Town.

This was a small matter, and it would be troublesome if investigators from the upper city came and his identity was unknown.

So, Carla patted her chest and said that she would get Suk an identity.

Suk was relieved about Carla.

Unexpectedly, the identity Carla got him would be so… legendary!

These past two days, Suk could feel the residents passing by looking at him in a very strange way as he walked down the street.

Reverence mixed with pity, and pity mixed with respect…

The enthusiastic aunts and uncles in the town would stuff things into Suk's arms when they saw him.

Food, supplies, useless things…

It was very complicated, and Suk didn't even dare to go out.

Looking at Goring, Suk took a deep breath and said, “Are there any results from the investigation?”

Goring nodded quickly, “Reporting, Captain.”

“Regarding Luso, some information has been found. Investigating further may alert the enemy, so I have come to ask for your instructions.”

Suk nodded in satisfaction.

This Goring is still very shrewd.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to stand out among the seven or eight third-tier, tenth-level guardians in the Dawa Town Guard and become the previous captain.

“Speak.”

Goring said quickly, “Captain, according to the information we have now.”

“Luso's identity is not simple.”

“He seems to have some connection with the Beastmen.”

Hearing this.

Suk was stunned.

This guy is capable!

He can actually find this out!

The connection with the Beastmen was something he only knew in the simulation. If the Beastmen hadn't invaded on a large scale, he wouldn't have known that Luso was related to the Beastmen.

Unexpectedly, Goring could find this out.

Goring continued, “Regarding this, it involves a secret.”

“You should already know, so I'll repeat it again.”

“In recent years, many humans have been smuggling Beastmen slaves. In order to crack down on these crimes, the Beastmen Kingdom has sent envoys to various human countries.”

“Our Principality of Lornoth also has envoys stationed in the imperial city.”

“Luso is very close to these Beastmen envoys.”

“Just half a month ago, Luso went to the imperial city once and contacted the Beastmen envoys.”

Speaking of this, Goring looked at Suk.

Suk's expression was also wrapped in clothing, and he couldn't see anything or guess Suk's thoughts.

Suk and Goring looked at each other, “Continue.”

Goring quickly continued, “However, according to a clue I know, the Beastmen envoys in our Principality of Lornoth seem to be looking for someone, and not really to rescue the Beastmen who are being used as slaves.”

“Or rather, rescuing Beastmen slaves is one aspect, and also the surface, while in secret, they are doing other things.”

Hearing this, Suk was surprised.

This Goring is really giving him surprises.

He originally thought that he wouldn't find anything.

Unexpectedly, he could even find out this level of relationship.

According to Goring, what is the real purpose of the Beastmen envoys?

Suk had some guesses.

It's very likely for Lucy.

More precisely, it's for the secret on Lucy's body.

But he didn't know what Lucy was involved in.

Seeing that Suk didn't express anything, Goring quickly said again, “Captain, this matter has exceeded the scope of what our small town can investigate, so…”

Suk shook his head, “Reporting it is out of the question.”

“These are just your speculations.”

Goring nodded quickly, and then cautiously continued, “Then… do you want to continue investigating?”

Suk didn't answer immediately and pondered.

If he investigates further, he will have to investigate the Beastmen envoys in the imperial city.

Goring is far away in Dawa Town, and even if his information is well-informed, he can't reach the imperial city.

A rash investigation is likely to alert the enemy.

Thinking of this, Suk shook his head, “Forget it.”

“Monitor Luso, and also, investigate the dog dealer, Lex Tuwen, who entered Dawa Town two days ago.”

Hearing Suk say another name.

Goring's heart skipped a beat.

Good heavens, what exactly is going on in this small Dawa Town?

So many strange people have infiltrated it.

Sweat broke out on his forehead, and Goring nodded quickly, “Don't worry, Captain, I will definitely find out his background!”

Suk nodded and turned to take out a few bottles of potion from his interspatial ring.

“This is the Ring Magic Potion, it will be helpful to you.”

Looking at the potion in Suk's hand, Goring's body trembled.

The Ring Magic Potion is a top-grade potion that breaks through the third-tier barrier and advances to the fourth tier. Even one bottle is something he can't afford.

Moreover, it is scarce and priceless. The annual output of the entire Principality of Lornoth is extremely small, and almost all of it is taken away by the top forces.

Trembling, Goring nodded excitedly, “Thank you, Captain Kern!!!”

“In the future, I will definitely go through fire and water for you, do my best, and die without regret!”

Suk waved his hand, “Go.”

Goring left, trembling.

Suk looked at his back, with a smile on his lips.

Hit with a stick, give a sweet date.

He has the strength to absolutely suppress Goring, but if he wants Goring to work for him steadily and safely, he has to give him some benefits.

Suk understands how to manage subordinates.

Standing up, Suk looked at the street outside.

“I, too, have to move.”
