Anime: About That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime

“Hello there, big lizard-man brother.”

Sally had a faint smile on her lips as she stopped about ten meters in front of Noah, looking up at the behemoth before her; at only one meter forty-two, she wasn't even as tall as Noah's thigh at this moment.

Her seemingly frail body appeared as fragile as porcelain before the nearly seven-meter-tall Noah in his rage, as if Noah could shatter Sally with a mere tap, yet Sally's eyes held no fear or dread.

The adorable smile remained on her lips, the purple mist behind her churning incessantly, revolving around Sally's body.

“Ghost Clan, did you do this?”

Noah suppressed the violence within his heart, the desire to tear Sally apart, and his deep voice echoed again. If it had been a human before him, Noah wouldn't have hesitated in the slightest, but Sally's ghostly horns and her delicate face...

They made the one wholeheartedly loyal to the Edras Kingdom hesitate, because the Ghost Clan was also an important member of the Edras Kingdom. Noah even had many Ghost Clan friends within the kingdom, which was why he asked Sally twice if she had done this.

In his heart, he yearned, hoped, and didn't want to believe... that a demon like the Ghost Clan would do this. He even fantasized that Sally would say she was just deceived and coerced by adventurers... After all, the fundamental purpose of the Edras Kingdom launching a war against the Yst Kingdom was to survive.

For the people within the Edras Kingdom to survive... so that their descendants would no longer have to worry about hunger and could grow up healthy... This was also the reason why the Edras Kingdom would launch a war at all costs and sacrifices.

Even those demons knew that once they embarked on war, their ultimate fate would only be one of two... either become strong and survive... or become weak cannon fodder to exhaust the warriors of the Yst Kingdom.

However, they still chose to do so without hesitation. If they became strong, they could plunder enough land and food from the Yst Kingdom. As for dying as cannon fodder... the food they saved after their death would become nourishment for the next generation to grow.

As for whether invading the Yst Kingdom was as evil as those humans said...

No demon cared at all. All they wanted was to survive... And the Yst Kingdom had done nothing wrong; they were only protecting their own kingdom and resisting invaders. Neither side was wrong.

Everything was for survival... for profit.

And Noah, who had been striving for this goal, hesitated when he looked at Sally's delicate face and the ghostly horns on her head, even though his heart had already confirmed that the compatriots who had died were killed by Sally.

But as long as Sally was willing to say that humans had forced her and deceived her... then Noah was still willing to forgive Sally, because a Ghost Clan with such powerful strength at a young age, as long as she returned to the Edras Kingdom, perhaps she could truly realize their long-held wish when she grew up with her powerful strength.

And as long as their long-cherished wish was fulfilled, Noah believed that those compatriots who died because of Sally would not have the slightest resentment in their hearts, and would even feel proud of their death.

“No, Sally couldn’t do such a thing.”

On the opposite side, Sally didn't know what Noah was thinking. She just tilted her little head, smiled gently, and shook her small hand to indicate that she really didn't do it.

“Really? Then you.....”

After hearing Sally say that she didn't do it, Noah relied on his beast-like instinct to know that Sally wasn't lying. A trace of disappointment and relief inevitably appeared in his scarlet vertical pupils. Although Sally didn't do it, it meant that Sally didn't have the power he imagined.

But it didn't matter. At least this proved that Sally didn't kill her compatriots, and he could take this Ghost Clan wandering outside the Edras Kingdom back. In a few years, she would also become one of the top combat forces in the Edras Kingdom.

After all, the Ghost Clan was a recognized advanced demon. Once they reached adulthood, they would have at least the strength of a middle-ranked demon, and the most talented among them would become high-ranked demons.

It was just that Noah, who had been completely attracted by Sally's attention at this time, didn't realize that the shadows under his feet began to twist constantly. A slime appeared there silently, and behind the slime, black, sharp shadow spears with barbs at the tips began to emerge.

‘Shadow Assault!’

“Noah, watch out behind you!”

Not far away, Micah, who had just received Noah's order and began to summon the surviving compatriots in the forest to leave, turned around and discovered the sharp shadow thorns behind Noah. He rushed towards here without hesitation, while loudly reminding him.

“It’s too late.”

Looking at Noah in front of him, who instinctively raised his long knife and chopped behind him after hearing Micah's reminder from behind, Lu Minghao sighed softly. It was all too late. When Noah shattered the rocks blocking the entrance of the cave with one blow before, that powerful force instantly made Lu Minghao vigilant.

Out of caution, Lu Minghao directly chose to release his strongest skill ‘Poison’, and then hid in the shadows with Sally. As the magic supply increased, the poison devoured all life in the forest and accelerated its growth, coupled with the later low-level demons, the poison became even more terrifying.

If these demons had discovered Lu Minghao's poison at the beginning, then at least the middle-ranked demon in front of him would have had a chance to survive. It was a pity that several minutes had passed, and Lu Minghao had secretly attracted Noah's attention through Sally for insurance, allowing the toxins in his body to erode more deeply.

At this moment, Lu Minghao chose to attack, which meant that he already had 100% certainty.

And everything was just as Lu Minghao planned. As soon as Noah moved, he noticed something was wrong. The originally powerful body full of strength became sluggish and weak, and his sense of direction had also been lost. Everything in front of him was still blurred.

The turning attack that could be completed in the blink of an eye in peacetime became extremely difficult at this time. When Noah's vision returned to normal again, he saw Micah running from a distance with anger and disbelief in his eyes, and the corner of his eye saw black thorns piercing through his body, and his twisted shadow... In the center of the shadow, a slime like a sapphire was looking at him.

“S... Slime... Why?”

Looking at the slime, Noah's heart was filled with endless doubts. Why was all of this done by a slime, and why would the slime have such power... As a demon, why would it attack them, its own kind?

And what Noah was most angry and puzzled about was, you are such a strong slime, why are you still playing sneak attacks!?

“Just for nourishment and survival.”

Lu Minghao said, the magic in his body began to flow, and the surrounding air began to condense. Blue and white ice crystals condensed, and the next second completely pierced through Noah's tall body, and then froze it little by little.

Crack!

A crisp sound rang out, and cracks appeared on Noah's frozen body. The moment Micah arrived, Noah's body turned into pieces on the ground.
