Anime: About That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime

In an abandoned village at the border between the Ister Kingdom and the Edras Kingdom, the dilapidated village, old fences, rickety houses, and overgrown, weed-filled fields indicated that it had been uninhabited for a long time.

But beneath the village, the scene was completely different. A massive underground labyrinth had quietly appeared. Inside the dimly lit passages, numerous monsters, beasts, and humans were frantically advancing towards the depths of the maze, their scarlet pupils filled with greed and hunger, as if something deep within the labyrinth was attracting them.

The faint fragrance permeating the air was fatally alluring to monsters, beasts, and humans alike. Even former enemies could now coexist peacefully, advancing in the same direction.

"Squeak squeak!"

Inside a passage, a giant rat with dark fur suddenly raised its head and sniffed the air ahead. Its rodent face revealed a human-like expression of greed, and it eagerly jumped into the dark opening ahead.

In mid-air, the giant rat's eyes were fixed on what lay directly ahead. There, a jade-white flower was blooming, its warm, jade-like petals emitting a faint glow, and its golden stamen exuding a rich fragrance.

"Squeak squeak!"

Looking at the unfamiliar flower, the giant rat squeaked excitedly, its limbs flailing in mid-air as it tried to reach the flower. As it approached the petals, the giant rat opened its foul-smelling mouth and bit down forcefully.

Snap!

"? ? ?"

A sharp pain came from its mouth, and the originally irrational giant rat regained a bit of clarity due to the stinging sensation. It looked ahead with confusion, not understanding why it was here. If it remembered correctly, it had simply left its nest to find food, as usual.

During its search for food, it had suddenly smelled a rat-attracting fragrance and followed it into a cave, which led it to this place.

Pfft!

The next moment, the giant rat heard a strange sound, followed by an unusual sensation in its body. When it looked down, it realized that its body had been split in two at some point. Below, countless water blades flew out like a rainstorm, cutting the many monsters around it into pieces.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

The minced meat of many monsters fell from mid-air, splashing into a lake of blood. Floating on the surface of the lake were numerous monster fragments. The last thing the giant rat saw was a little girl in a bright red dress lying in the center of the lake, devouring the endless stream of blood and flesh.

Above the little girl, a slime that looked like a sapphire was floating, continuously firing water blades upwards.

"With this wave, it should be almost enough."

In mid-air, Lu Minghao raised his head and glanced at the monster fragments falling like rain above, then looked down at Sally, who was sleeping below. Since Sally had fallen asleep a week ago, Lu Minghao had swallowed her into his body and left the Ister Kingdom's battlefield base with her.

Lu Minghao had originally planned to find a place to wait for Sally to finish absorbing the human hero, but after Sally advanced to a mid-level monster, Lu Minghao discovered that the nutrients provided by the human hero were not enough.

Because the moment she advanced to a mid-level monster, the Oni bloodline within Sally began to awaken. Perhaps it was because of the Gluttony ability, but Sally's awakened Oni bloodline began to evolve in an unknown direction. Even the nutrients that would have been enough for Sally to become a high-level monster were now being rapidly consumed.

In less than half a day, most of the nutrients provided by the human hero had been devoured by Sally's evolving Oni bloodline. If this continued, when the nutrients were completely consumed, either Sally's evolving Oni bloodline would stop and the evolution would fail.

Or the evolving Oni bloodline would recklessly continue to devour, eventually consuming even Sally herself.

The latter possibility was the most likely. After all, Lu Minghao, as her master, was well aware of the ferocity of the [Gluttony Power]. Therefore, Lu Minghao had brought Sally to this small village and, within a few hours, had used his powerful Demon King Seed strength to create a massive labyrinth.

The labyrinth's exit connected to many monster gathering places and the sewers of human cities. Then, relying on the increasingly perverted 'Phantasmal Lure' after becoming a Demon King Seed, he began to lure all kinds of monsters and humans to become nutrients for Sally's bloodline evolution.

In this short week, at least tens of thousands of lives had died here, becoming part of the blood and flesh lake.

"However, isn't the evolution of Sally's Oni bloodline a bit strange?"

The next moment, Lu Minghao flew to the top of Sally's head. Sally's original domineering black Oni horns had shrunk several times in size, and the whole thing was like a top-quality black gemstone, looking exquisite and lovely.

Sally's original height of 1.42 meters had also increased, and a pair of slender legs were faintly visible under her long dress. Her flat chest was slightly raised, and her immature face had become more mature. If you ignored the fact that Sally was lying in a lake of blood, she would be a sleeping, peerless beauty.

Of course, none of that mattered. The most important thing was Sally's seemingly tender skin, which even Lu Minghao's water blades could only leave a trace on. As for the claws and fangs of monsters, Lu Minghao had experimented with a mid-level monster before, and the result was that the monster died of exhaustion without harming Sally in the slightest.

"In terms of physical strength alone, it's even more outrageous than me, a Demon King Seed."

Saying that, Lu Minghao casually picked up a long sword left behind by some human adventurer from Sally's side and chopped it down on Sally's head. With a snap, the long sword broke into two pieces, while Sally's forehead remained as smooth as ever.

If Lu Minghao could ignore physical attacks because of his slime's liquid body, then Sally was completely relying on her physical strength. Don't look at Sally's appearance now, which is only the size of an ordinary human girl, but her body's mass and density were already far beyond many times over.

"Outrageous."

Looking at the half-length sword left in his hand, Lu Minghao sighed again. After casually stuffing the long sword into his body and digesting it, Lu Minghao landed on Sally's little head and looked at the pair of Oni horns. The nearly ten-centimeter-long Oni horns looked so lovely, but on closer inspection, they seemed like a pitch-black abyss. A constant stream of magic essence was being forcibly drawn from nature and then absorbed by Sally.

Sally's magic essence was also rapidly increasing. Currently, Sally's magic essence was infinitely close to a high-level monster, and the Oni bloodline in her body was almost completely evolved.
