A fire sphere dashed towards the crazy farmer; he pivoted and tried to run, but it was useless as the fireball—Gzz!—landed on his back and burned him to death as he squealed.

Thud!—his dead body fell to the ground.

Slime#47 wobbled in disappointment. He'd given them all the same amount, but the farmer rushed to steal more. So he could only kill him.

He'd only come back to pick up Bull#1. When he and the gang went, he found that Bull#1 was missing, so he returned, but he didn't expect to walk in on a farmer trying to steal from others.

"^&^^," The farmers said with a smile.

'Ah...A thank you….Huh....' despite not being able to understand them, he could feel it from their expressions.

He glanced around and spotted the kid who had stood in front of the crazy farmer without fear, 'It's her... bug-eating girl.' He Wob!—bounced in front of her.

The kid glanced at him with her bright purple eyes, kneeling down while grinning.

'She's cute...' He mused while patting her on the head softly—Pat!—and took a one-striped crystal from his pouch—bailiff's and gave it to her.

Despite being very skinny and unattractive, her eyes had gained his affection.

He just didn't want her eating bugs again.

The kid took the crystal with a wide smile and seemed very happy as she gave a tight hug to Slime#47. And left after a few seconds, with small tears in her eyes, she let go of him.

He wiped her eyes and said, "Take care..." Wob!—bouncing towards Bull#1 and Whoosh!—flung him into the air by holding his horn.

In the eyes of villagers, slime bounced where Thud!—Bull#1 had fallen and again Whoosh!—threw him into the air and flung him around by bouncing near him, repeatedly.

By the time he'd left the village, the kid said, "Yes, I will… take care…."

Then in the next second, she—Thud!—knelt down in his direction.

Seeing her, everyone in the village followed, and Thud!—a farmer kowtowed. Seeing him, one by one started kowtowing.

"We… thank you… Red slime," the kid yelled, and one by one they followed.

"We thank you, red slime."

"We thank you, red slime."

Thud!—Young slime threw Bull#1 in front of Cow#1, who lowered her head. She was ashamed as she forgot him, much less heal him.

"Heal him…" Slime#47 ordered; Cow#1 nodded.

"Hhahah," Elder Slime, Mama Slime, and Little Slime laughed at Bull#1's condition. Everyone forgot about him.

"Heal…" Cow#1 cast the spell, pointing her tail at Bull#1.

A light green magic rune circle flashed in front of her tail as green light fell on Bull#1 from it.

Within seconds, Bull#1's injuries vanished, and he stood up looking good as new and said dubiously, "Where am I?"

"…." Cow#1 explained the situation to heal.

"We thank you, red slime…" Suddenly Slime#47 heard the roar of humans, but he couldn't understand them, so he asked Elder Slime in doubt, "What are they saying, elder?" But somehow, he felt happy.

"Nothing…." Old Slime dismissed him playfully but internally brimmed with joy, 'No wonder… You are indeed the chosen one… It seems it's the first place you saved,' he glanced at the village for one last time.

Just then—Ding!—a notification flashed in Young Slime's vision.

[ Ding! You have gained a new title—Oakfield Village Saviour {Common}! ]

[ —Oakfield village saviour {Common}—

—You have gained the goodwill of Oakfield villagers by saving them.

—Note: You have gained a wisp of faith! ]

'Faith….' He was shocked as he was about to inquire about the faith. A new notification flashed in his vision.

[ Ding! Trait—Eternal Mastery {Mythic} has devoured the wisp of faith! ]

'What… what's this bullshit?' He roared internally. He knew that faith was a powerful, as it was something related to gods.

Everyone who reads novels, manga, and watches anime should know that faith is a high-end power related to divinity, but he gained it somehow, and it was eaten by his trait before he could feel its strength.

'Ahh… whatever….' He sighed, expecting to get a new notification, as faith should be powerful enough to make changes in his trait.

He'd waited for a few minutes, but none…

He quickly opened his traits panel to check…

[ —Eternal Mastery {Mythic}—

—Carry 25% of masteries, non-class skills, and non-racial skills to the next loop, while locking the same tier of masteries. ]

'No change… so the wisp of faith was wasted?' He clenched his tiny fists—he really wanted to punch something.

"What's wrong, child?" Elder Slime asked, noticing his distorted look.

"Nothing…." He dismissed it with a sigh, 'It's gone… Let's check if I get it next time.'

Elder Slime pointed his finger on the map, "We are here. By following this route, which adventurers use, we can avoid human cities." Mama Slime, Little Slime, Cow#1, and Bull#1 also peeked in.

The map had the routes of roads, quite detailed.

'Kinda like… Highways,' Young Slime mused, glancing at the map.

"Why don't humans live near them?" Little slime asked dubiously, tilting his body.

"Because demons live nearby," Elder slimes said, pointing to a tiger mark on the map near the route.

"Would they help us?" Cow#1 asked, expecting fellow demons to help them.

"No. Why would they?" Elder Slime said flatly.

'Yeah… why would,' Slime#47 clicked his tongue in annoyance.

'It doesn't matter...I will get stronger and kill humans...' Bull#1 mused, feeling confident.

"We're walking money bags to them… If strong adventurers show up, those demons die first." Elder Slime answered, glancing at the troubled gang.

"So… they are weak," Slime#47 understood.

"Yes, these demons are troublesome to deal with for normal adventurers, so people avoid them, but not for powerful people," Old Slime replied, as the gang was filled with disappointment.

'Afraid of powerful… so they wouldn't help us… since we can attract them,' Young Slime nodded.

"So… only option is to get to Ruins City Lunxia…" He said plainly, he'd expected the second option to work as well, but there wasn't any powerful demon to get backing.

'No wonder humans are exploiting slimes... If there were powerful demons… just for being the same demon kin, slimes would have been freed,' He mused, feeling powerless.

"Let's move. We don't have much time," Elder Slime said, as everyone prepared.

------

In the concrete road between long trees, Slime#47 sat on Bull#1 as he Thud!—Thud! ran fast.

He glanced around at the surroundings. The long green trees were all around.

'It feels like a road carved between jungle…' He mused, breathing fresh air from the surroundings. The trees were present from the time he'd left Oakfield village.

But concrete roads were built all around, which helped people to travel between the places.
