Anime: About That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime

That night, Sally felt a long-lost warmth, as if she were lying in Grandma Oran's arms, a happy smile on her lips.

‘Hey hey! Drool, drool, it's dripping on me!’

Early in the morning, as the first ray of sunlight illuminated the forest, the sleeping girl in the wooden house was covered with a layer of sky-blue quilt, her small hands tightly grasping the jelly-like quilt, a trace of crystal slowly dripping from the corner of her mouth.

Drip!

Just as the crystal at the corner of the girl's mouth was about to fall, Lu Minghao quickly retracted that part of his body, and the sudden movement also startled the sleeping girl.

Sally looked at the slime that completely enveloped her body, and thinking of the long-lost warmth last night, a strange brilliance bloomed in her purple eyes, and her heart began to feel a mix of emotions.

Since she was a child, except for her dead parents and Grandma Oran, Sally knew for the first time what it felt like to be cared for. After her parents died, Sally relied on scavenging in garbage dumps, and sometimes even had to compete with wild dogs for food to survive.

And after that, she finally met Grandma Oran, but not long after, Grandma Oran died, and Sally became alone again, driven out of the village by the villagers and forced to rely on wild fruits and various insects to fill her stomach.

Sometimes, Sally would wonder if it was a mistake for her to be born into this world, and if it would be better if she died.

But now, since Grandma Oran died, Sally felt for the first time that it was good to be alive........

“Thank you, Slime, I’m so happy that Sally could meet you!”

Sally hugged Lu Minghao tightly in her arms, burying her face in Lu Minghao's jelly-like body and said softly.

Lu Minghao returned to his round, streamlined body and didn't say anything, just silently stretched out an arm and gently stroked Sally's long hair. The morning sun shone on them through the cracks in the wooden house, and their shadows overlapped on the ground.

A half-human, half-ghost and a slime embraced each other, leaning on each other.

Forming a beautiful picture.

Warm and beautiful.

A few minutes later, Sally released Lu Minghao, raised her hand and patted her small face hard, a trace of blush appeared on her sallow skin, and Sally showed a smile full of energy.

“Sally is going to prepare today’s food, including your share, Slime.”

Saying that, Sally gently placed Lu Minghao on the bed, then nimbly jumped down, reached out and groped in the corner for a while, found a tattered small basket, skillfully draped it over her arm, Sally turned her head and waved to Lu Minghao, and told it to wait obediently for her at home and not to run out.

“Well then, I’m going out, Slime, you must stay at home obediently and wait for Sally to come back.”

Accompanied by a energetic voice, Sally's thin body walked out of the small wooden house, carefully closed the door, and ran towards the place where she often picked wild fruits, facing the morning sun.

“She really is a child, any normal person would have noticed something was wrong.”

Lu Minghao looked at the tightly closed wooden door, his elastic body easily jumped off the bed, opened the door and looked at Sally's back disappearing into the depths of the forest, and sighed slightly. Any ordinary person with a little common sense would easily notice something was wrong through Lu Minghao's series of actions that were completely inconsistent with ordinary slimes.

After all, how could an ordinary slime turn itself into a quilt with its own heating function, and when Sally woke up, Lu Minghao's shadow manipulation used to seal the cracks in the wooden house hadn't been released yet, as well as the action of stroking Sally's head afterwards.

“Forget it, if Sally hasn’t noticed it in a few days, then I’ll just tell her.”

In the next second, Lu Minghao turned around and walked into the wooden house. He didn’t intend to hide the fact that he had complete intelligence from Sally, after all, if he really intended to hide it, Lu Minghao wouldn’t have secretly run here with his main body.

What Lu Minghao didn't know was that when he returned to the wooden house, a pair of big eyes in the distant forest were watching him, especially when he saw Lu Minghao's human-like movements, she couldn't help but jump up.

Pa!

“It hurts, but Sally was right, Slime, you are indeed different from ordinary slimes!”

In the low bushes, Sally, lying on the ground, covered her small head with a swollen bump, her small face with an excited, happy smile looking at her home. Don't look at her being less than ten years old, but her childhood experience has given Sally a keen sense, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to survive until now.

In fact, when Lu Minghao was unwilling to leave yesterday, Sally felt that he was different from ordinary slimes. It wasn't until Sally woke up this morning that she saw Lu Minghao turning into a quilt covering her body, as well as the shadow sealing the cracks in the wooden house.

Especially when Lu Minghao stroked her hair, Sally had already determined that Lu Minghao had complete intelligence, but Sally didn't say it, but instead used the excuse of picking wild fruits to run here and secretly observe the wooden house.

“Hehe, Sally also has a family now!”

In the next second, Sally sat up and stared blankly at her wooden house, giggling foolishly. Although she didn't know why Lu Minghao would stay by her side, Sally could feel that Lu Minghao had no malice towards her, but instead had a kind of pity for her, as if they were each other's only kind.

And when she discovered everything Lu Minghao had done for her this morning, at that moment Sally had already determined that the slime in her arms was her family... For Sally, who had suffered countless malice and was deeply mired in loneliness and despair since she was a child, the suddenly appearing Lu Minghao was the only light illuminating her.

“Sally, you have to work hard! Today, you have to prepare food for two people!”

Sally stood up and carefully patted the weeds and dead leaves off her skirt, raised her head and looked at the sun in the sky, a smile appeared on her small face... The sun today is really warm.

......

On the other side, inside the rickety wooden house.

Lu Minghao was looking at the thumb-sized clone opposite him. Today, he planned to continue what Sally had delayed yesterday, which was to figure out where he was now. As for why he used a clone instead of the main body.

Of course, Lu Minghao was still worried that there was an old trickster hiding in the village. Although he had tested it yesterday, what if it was a conspiracy by the old trickster hiding in the village?

“Go, Clone No. 3.”

In the next second, Clone No. 3 crawled out from the cracks in the wooden house and quickly moved towards the village not far away. Before long, the fence outside the village appeared in front of Clone No. 3.

However, this time, because Clone No. 3 was only the size of a thumb and changed its color with the environment throughout the entire process, the villagers on the watchtower not far away didn't notice its existence at all.

“Is anyone there? If no one's here, I'm coming in?”
