Traveling through time? You can reach another world as soon as you leave your house

There was a question mark in Lu Ren's eyes as he imagined what that creature looked like.

As a result, the image of a silly roe deer inexplicably appeared in my mind, looking at me OVO with a wise face.

"...It tastes pretty good."

Lu Ren continued eating with a complicated expression.

"The soup is just a little salty."

"Eh, really?"

Rimuru was stunned for a moment, and tilted his head in surprise.

This may be due to different personal tastes, right?

After all, she had tasted it when she was cooking the soup before, and it felt just right.

"Yeah, I also think the soup is a bit salty, but it's still delicious. It makes me feel warm in my tummy."

At this time, Milim also echoed.

Then, with rice still on the corners of her mouth, she handed over the empty bowl and said with a cute smile, "I want another bowl!"

"Haha~ You guys have really high requirements."

Rimuru smiled dumbly, then took the empty bowl and helped to serve the rice.

But then again, she does always add a little more salt when cooking soup. It can be considered a small habit of her daily life.

She thought so in her heart.

"But even if the soup is a little salty, you still have to finish it and don't waste food."

"I know. I will finish it well."

"No problem. I don't have the bad habit of wasting food. Besides, this pickled white radish is really good. It goes well with rice."

"Really? Hehe~ I asked Shuna to help make this. She's a great cook. She'll be in charge of dinner tonight."

"Oh, that sounds like something worth looking forward to."

While Lu Ren was eating, he chatted with Rimuru about random things.

Although it was the first time he met the other party, he now felt that this was unexpectedly good.

After all, he lives alone and usually eats alone at home or goes out to convenience stores like KFC. He rarely sits at the same table with others and chats naturally like he does now.

Moreover, the other party's cooking skills are really good, and the food is also delicious...

Well, the soup is still a bit salty.

Lu Ren ate his meal with an expressionless face. He didn't know what to say, but he felt a little thirsty because of the salty taste.

But just when he was about to go back home and get another glass of iced juice, a glass of milky liquid was handed to him.

"...What is this?"

Lu Ren took it subconsciously, and feeling the warmth from the cup in his palm, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Then, he heard an answer that made him feel complicated.

“This is cow and deer milk.”

Rimuru handed Milim a cup as well, stirring his own cup with a small spoon, and said casually.

"This is the milk produced by the monster you are eating now. I just heated it up and added some honey to it. It is considered a high-quality product~"

As she spoke, she took a sip herself and showed a delicious expression.

Then, seeing that Lu Ren seemed to be a little conflicted, she couldn't help but chuckle, then stretched out her hand and patted the other's shoulder.

"Don't worry, it won't have any weird taste, it's delicious, just try it (>▽

Rimuru laughed cutely, looking very enthusiastic.

Looking at the expectant eyes of the girl in front of him, Lu Ren was a little helpless. He had no choice but to try taking a sip and feel the warmth and sweetness.

And the faint fragrance of hair from the person next to me lingering at the tip of my nose.

"......not bad."

Volume 36: Chapter It's really a different world

The summer in the Jura Forest seems to be particularly hot this year.

The gentle north wind swept across the mountains and forests, brushed across the streams, and finally blew into the monster town that was like a paradise on earth, and sent the fragrance from the orchards and rice fields to the depths of a bamboo forest.

Slime Hut.

Milim, who had finished her lunch, was sitting cross-legged on the poplar board outside in a cool and cute sailor suit, with her delicate and white feet bare, as if they were painted with black nail polish, and she had thrown aside the green cloth shoes that were in the way.

Rimuru, who had turned back into a slime, was being held in the child's arms. His tender body was being squeezed through the thin cloth and was being held between a pair of slender and powerful legs, making him like a pillow.

After all, slime's body is cool, and it feels really comfortable to hold it in your arms in the hot summer.

But Rimuru is a little distressed now.

Because while Milim was holding her, she was blinking her big watery eyes and biting herself gently, with an empty jar placed next to her.

That was the honey jar she gave to the other person when they first met.

Moreover, it is the highest quality honey produced by the Queen Bee of the Legion. It tastes incredibly sweet and is her treasure.

But it’s out of stock now.

So even if Milim kept looking at him expectantly, Rimuru couldn’t take out a new jar of honey.

"I've already told you there really isn't any left. If you still want to eat it, you'll have to wait for the Yapito to produce new honey... Wait, what's that look in your eyes?"

Rimuru was halfway through his words when he noticed that the Demon King's dragon eyes suddenly glowed with a faint light, as if he had discovered his prey.

“Um, Milim, let me make it clear first. You can’t go and threaten Apito. We are all important companions, so forcing us is not allowed.”

“Haha~ How could that be, Rimuru? I don’t even know where the guy you’re talking about is.”

Milim smiled a little guiltily, and finally stopped biting the other person. Instead, she treated him as a cool and comfortable pillow, rubbing her delicate little face against him, looking very leisurely.

Several wind chimes hanging on the eaves, shaped like slimes, were also swaying gently, making clear and pleasant sounds from time to time.

It was swayed by a breeze blowing towards it.

And the clear blue sky above looks particularly clear and bright.

Sitting cross-legged outside, you can still hear the chirping of summer cicadas. Looking around, you can see a lush, vibrant bamboo forest and a carefully decorated courtyard.

I have to say, this is indeed a nice summer home.

but......

"It's so hot in summer."

Lu Ren walked out of the house on the tatami, complaining casually about the overly sunny weather.

He was just washing dishes in the kitchen.

After all, he was treated to a lunch, so he should at least help wash the pots and dishes after the meal. This was what he personally considered polite.

After hearing Lu Ren's voice, Milim, who was sitting on the poplar board outside, turned around and laughed cutely.

“It’s a bit hot today, but as long as I hold Rimuru, I won’t feel the heat~”

As she spoke, she rubbed the cute slime in her arms affectionately again, hugging it tightly, making her thin sailor uniform almost become translucent.

Then, she raised her head and smiled as if she was presenting a treasure.

"Lu Ren, do you want to try hugging me too? It feels really great~"

"Eh, me?"

Lu Ren, who was sitting casually aside, was stunned for a moment with some surprise.

But to be honest, he was quite tempted by this proposal.

After all, when you see a slime that looks like a large jelly appear in front of you in real life, it is hard not to be curious about trying to touch it.

So, after a little hesitation, Lu Ren asked.

"do you mind?"

He was looking at the slime in Milim’s arms.

After hearing this question, Rimuru thought about it and didn't mind: "Okay, it's okay~"

So, having been allowed, Lu Ren excitedly took this miraculous cute creature with both hands, sat cross-legged, carefully held it in his arms, and tried to gently stroke the wonderful touch that was like slippery jelly...

Well, as expected, it was just as he imagined.

The slime's body is not only soft, but also cold. Holding it in your arms feels like holding a ball of stagnant water, and it is unexpectedly elastic.

To be honest, it was the first time that Lu Ren felt this magical touch, so he couldn't help but rub it a few more times with more force, just like petting a cat.

His originally calm face now revealed a smile of joy that was difficult to conceal.

However, he did not continue rubbing it. Instead, he quickly put the slime in his arms back on the poplar board beside him, feeling unsatisfied.

"Thank you. This is my first time hugging a slime. It really feels wonderful."

He smiled kindly: "By the way, Rimuru, I am also very curious about this monster town. Can you take me around next time?"

"Eh? Sure, I'd love to~"

Before Milim, who was about to make a move, could catch him.

Rimuru, who had quickly changed back into his petite form, sat next to Lu Ren, supporting himself on the wooden board with his hands. His slender legs stretched over the edge of the outdoor corridor, hanging in the air, swaying casually, with his snow-white, translucent feet exposed.

She tilted her head back and gave him the same kind smile. Her innocent look was so adorable.

“Although I just met you today, I have a good impression of you and Milim, so if you want to go around the Monster Town, leave it to me. I will take you to some interesting places, OVO.”

"Oh, really? That's really worth looking forward to."

Looking at the blue-haired girl in front of him winking at him playfully, Lu Ren couldn't help but chuckle.

For some reason, he felt that he was really relaxed right now.

It seems that even if you sit in this slightly hot courtyard for a whole day, you will not feel the slightest bit of impatience or boredom.

And this is probably because the girl who is standing next to him at this moment seems to be able to talk to him really well. It can be said that he has met someone with similar interests and a suitable personality?

Well, it seems like I can make some pretty good friends.

Lu Ren thought so in his heart.

......

Half an hour later.

Lu Ren held Milim's hand and followed Rimuru out of the bamboo forest and came to the streets of the town. He was looking around with surprise.

Large goblins dressed in elegant attire were setting up stalls and shops, welcoming customers with great enthusiasm.

The hardworking pigmen, after having lunch, went to the construction site to work in groups, carrying towels to wipe their sweat.

The blacksmith's shop was filled with the sound of hammering, and through the half-open door, one could vaguely see a burly dwarf with his sleeves rolled up, swinging a hammer.

There were also weaker races such as the Gnolls, Dwarfs and Fishmen, who all walked on the streets in peace. There was no conflict or wariness between them due to racial differences. They all had a very relaxed expression.

Obviously, in their view, this monster town is a happy place where they can live and work in peace and contentment.

Looking at these fantasy-style pictures, Lu Ren couldn't help but sigh softly.

"It's really a different world~"

He looked with interest at several human merchants gathered together not far away. They were whispering, seemingly discussing the wealth and uniqueness of this town, as well as its convenient trade and superior geographical location as a transit point to other countries.

It was the first time that Lu Ren had such a real feeling that he had arrived in a different world.

Then, he turned and looked at Rimuru who was walking in front of him.

Before, when the other party led them out of the Slime Hut, he changed his original clothes into a set of cooler clothes that were more convenient for movement.

A thin pure white short-sleeved shirt, paired with refreshing three-quarter shorts, and a pair of simple sandals.

The pair of smooth and delicate white thighs, as well as the exquisite snow-white feet with shallow blue veins on the instep, were exposed to the air without any concealment.
