A Dragon in Slime's Clothing ~ I Want to Live Peacefully by Pretending to Be the Weakest Volume 1 Chapter 21

And……

We finished!!!~

Well the first chapter/arc anyway, make sure to click next for the final chapter~

Some news:

I go back to Uni next week, so unfortunately that means the schedule’s going to change. I’m moving back to my apartment near the university and I have no internet there(killing me already) so other than when I’m actually at the university I can’t get online. Hopefully I’ll be able to get internet, but I’m tight on money since expenses add up~ I’ve applied this site for WordAds to see if I can get any revenue there, but I’m not too hopeful.

Well enough rambling about that~ I’ll still be able to get three chapters out next week, but after that I’ll release twice a week on Tuesday and Thursday. Sorry for the long preface, just wanted to make sure that anyone who cared knew what was going on.

Well then enjoy~

tl;dr : Going back to Uni; Schedule Change: Tuesday & Thursday

I separated with the two of Dragon Knight, being carried by Yurie I was on my way back home.
On the roadside from within the thicket I found a faint s.h.i.+ning thing.

“Stop”
“Eh? Ah yes”

Leaving side Yurie who was bewildered, I jumped down from her within her arms.
Hopping I headed towards the thicket, I confirmed the ident.i.ty of the thing I found.

“This is, real. Pretty rare huh”

“Ahh, mandragora. Have you not heard of it?”1

Yurie shook her head. Until just a while ago she was a simple village girl, that’s how it it.

“A plant whose root is humanoid. It’s extremely rare, that root is magic item’s material”

“Since it’s special let’s take it. Yurie, block your ears. You’ll die if you hear it’s shriek”
“O-ok!”

Yurie paled, and fl.u.s.teredly cover her ears.
I gathered the leaves of the mandragora above ground, and pulled will all my strength.

“Kyaaaaaaa!”

A girl’s shrill shriek arose.

The extracted and thrown onto the ground mandragora began taking off the clothes it was wearing.

“W-w-w-w-wwhat is that”
“It’s fine so watch”

Leaving aside Yurie who was blus.h.i.+ng and in a panic, I viewed the mandragora‘s strip show.
It took off one piece at a time and before long took off it’s underwear becoming stark naked.

“Ha!”

At that time my magic struck there.
At the moment it became stark naked it was struck by magic and was defeated.

“S-slime-sama?”

“Like fish huh”
“They’re similar right, well then-”

Facing the fallen, nude mandragora, I deformed my slime body and in order to wrap it I engulfed it.

After melting it until it was syrupy, a large amount of magic power-as much as 80% of my entire magic power is poured in.

Using magic it’s crushed from all 360 degrees. While crus.h.i.+ng it, the magic power permeates into it.
A short while later that was completed.

I tore a piece of my body, after making a cup with the capacity of earthenware, I breathed out flames and dried it in an instant.

I poured the magic potion into the cup I made just now, and handed it to Yurie.

“Hey, drink this”

“Why would I make a laxative in this situation! This is……it has no name, it’s my original magic potion. If you drink it, then your physical power and magical power ability will raise a little”

“If people persevere then they can break through the limits any number of times, but it’s possible to breakthrough lightly like this with this medicine. Look drink it down”

“What”

“It might be, from the bare proportions of the mandragora just now it matured underground for more than 100 years, a rare one. 80% of my magic is soaked in it as well”

“It’s fine so drink. Come on”

I leaped at Yurie and made her drink the magic potion forcibly.
This kind of thing has no meaning for me anymore, since I took the trouble to make it, if you don’t drink it it will become pointless though.

It went down Yurie’s throat until the last drop, I confirmed that I could sense that her ability’s upper limit rose a bit.

“Good, it looks like it was properly effective”

“Something like the upper limit is something you can’t understand while you’re weak, eventually you’ll become able to sense it”

“Don’t mind it. More importantly, I’m tired from using magic too much so carry me”
“Yes!”

Yurie held me up, and began walking like before while carrying me.
While heading home, I considered about what I thought up before.

Going out of this forest, separating from Kaa-san and making a place where I can laze around.
When should I become independent, what kind of place should I make. Thinking this and that about it.

If you were to say where monsters could easily live, mountains, forests, and dungeons, places that are unpopular.

A place where there is moderate sunlight, where this slime body can half melt is good.
Concretely what kind of place would be good, when I was thinking that.

“Gaaaaaa!”

From a distance away I heard a monster’s death cry.

“Slime-sama! The direction where we just came from”
“I know!”

Casting Distance View magic I look at the place where the screams occurred.

On the ground were 3 lizardmen collapsed, they were no longer breathing.
The one who did that was a male hero.

“Alex……”

A man I knew very well, within my disciples he’s the strongest.

[As I thought it smells like Ryu. Today for sure I will rescue you Ryu]

Alex who was obsessed with me, encountering him after a long time, some kind of misunderstanding was accelerating.

My magic power has decreased, the “smell” or such getting weakened was a good thing, we properly went past Alex and returned home.

On the bed, to Yurie “Sleep while holding me” after giving training instructions, I used my head on today’s events.

Wanting to leave this Deep Forest, leaving and becoming independent, wanting to relax as I please.
Due to Alex, I realized that was a difficult thing.

If I leave here, make something similar to this forest, and reign as the Dungeon Master like Kaa-san, then this time for sure I may be discovered by Alex.
That’s absolutely no good, the bothersome will be double and squared, becoming a super troublesome thing.

If I become the master of a new dungeon it will be no good.

Noon the next day, Deep Forest Central Part.
Even though it’s noon in a dimly place I came to visit where Hime lives.

“No way”

Hime easily refused.
Come along with me, and become the master of a new dungeon, such an appeal for cooperation was easily dismissed.

“No matter what?”

“I won’t leave here~. The blood of the humans who drink the water of this land is the most delicious you know? So far I’ve wandered all over, but depending on the water the blood it was either too strong or spoiled, there was none that was just right”

“Un! That’s why I won’t leave here”

When Hime who said so snapped her fingers, a human who had a bat on their head came, and cut their wrist in front of Hime.
Fresh blood gus.h.i.+ngly poured into the gla.s.s, and then Hime drained that deliciously.

Yurie who saw that.

“Even thinking about the water, almost like cows”

“S-scary……”

“Slime-sama……”

Yurie clung to me, and stared at me with teary eyes.
However if Hime’s no good, then what should I do.

Thinking of that I left Hime’s side and walked when I encountered Yui.
Yui was in her human form with both hands on her waist, and standing in an intimidating pose in the direction where we were advancing.

“What’s wrong Yui, some message from Kaa-san?”

“Un?”

Yui unusually hesitating to speak opened her mouth.

“S-since I’m a dragon, sooner or later I’ll have to go out of the forest and become independent right”
“? Well that’s true. Arganse was like that as well”

When thinking about Disaster and Kaa-san, Yui will have to go outside and make her own dungeon just like Arganse.
……what about that?

“But I’m troubled, I haven’t thought of anything”

“In addition I don’t have anyone to help me-”

Saying that, Yui looks at me with a glance.

“Somebody, I wonder if there’s someone who will come with me”

Yui had a unusual tone stretching the end of her sentences, her atmosphere is different from usual what’s wrong I wonder.
Well even so.

“If it’s Yui then you’ll be fine by yourself. You’re Kaa-san’s daughter and the Legendary Golden Dragon”
“! Onii-chan you idiot!”

For some reason Yui yelled at me, and vigorously stomped away.

“What was that just now”

“What’s wrong Yurie”

“Is that so”
“No matter how you look at it seemed like Imouto-sama wanted to go together with Slime-sama but……it’s Slime-sama so he’s surely thinking of something”

Yurie, while holding me, in a small voice to the degree that it couldn’t be heard by others muttered that.

I together with Yurie once again began walking.
Hime’s no good, next is, I know, only that guy huh.

“Kyaa, lovely”

“Aaan, it’s fine even if I die now”

“Ha-hahahahaha. Clamoring kittens. This Big Mouse Shesta will properly be everyone’s partner”

When I arrived together with Yurie at that place, Shesta was surrounded by female monsters. The monsters were letting out shrill screams, and giggling at Shesta.

“Shesta-sama. Supposing that it’s alright with you, will you show us Shesta-sama’s strong point”
“Oh leave it to me. I know, from here I’ll split that rock right in half”

Shesta said that, and quickly headed towards a huge rock bigger than himself.

“Haaa……tou!”

The big mouse psyched himself up, faced the rock and charged at it.

Rather Shesta who rammed hit his head severely, “Owowowowow” and became dizzy.

“Kyaaa, a-are you alright Shesta-sama”

“There’s no way that’s the case. I know, surely if it’s not battle it’s no good”

While being disappointed the monsters surrounding Shesta desperately searched for excuses, in order to maintain the “Cool image of Shesta” inside them.

Stealthily, with concealment attribute attached magic power I aimed and shot at the huge rock.
The magic power hit and-.

“Look! The rock is”

“I see, a time delay. As expected of Shesta-sama huh”
“Eh? Ahh……t-that’s right”

Shesta was staring in puzzlement, but he immediately returned to usual att.i.tude.

“Well, when facing this me, it’s this kind of walk in the park”

Like so, he started bragging.
Matching that, the female monsters giggled.

Un, that’s right.
It’s fine if I make Shesta a new dungeon’s master.

1. It’s マンドラコラ while Mandragora would be マンドラゴラ but should I leave it as is or change it to Mandorakora
