âHow did Ivy know about Meera?
Mr Rickbeltâs doubts will be natural.
How did I realize I was immature as an adventurer?
How should I answer that?
I donât want to lie.
Those are the people who believed me.
I guess I should just say what I needâŠ
âIâm Tamer. So⊠Iâm in a state of taming a slightly unusual slime. That kid taught me.â
Because of the tension, I put it in a slightly weird way.
Are you all right?
âWhat, was it Tamer? And Slime told meâŠâ
The surprised look on Mr. Ratluaâs face.
I guess I canât.
But there are many different types of slime, and I heard there are still many things I donât know.
âThatâs definitely a pretty rare slime. I guess itâs the kind no one knows about. Slime is still unknown.â
I am a little horrified by Mr. Seiserqueâs words.
If you are said to be an unknown being, you can delude yourself even if you are seen a little.
I might be able to spare a little for my upcoming journey.
âDid the slime youâre taming tell you Meera was a traitor?
Mr. Borolda asks me a little strangely.
To that I shake my neck to the side.
âNo. Sola, Slime says Sola, but you always react to my stories in a variety of ways. But thereâs no response to Mr. Meeraâs story. I gave out the names of the others because I was curious to see how they reacted. And then, after all, there was no response from Mr. Meera, and I decided from there.â
âWell, in reaction⊠but then Ivyâs slime is able to distinguish people. Pretty rare.â
âIs that a distinction?
âOh, they recognize the general slime, but they canât tell it apart to those around themâ
I didnât know.\n
I thought there was a distinction because the story of Captain Ogt and the story of Vice Captain Velivela had different reactions.
Are you out of your mind? No, people moved differently.
To the story of the same person, he always returned the same reaction.
After all, the distinction is made.
Youâre saying you can do this because itâs Sola too?
Mr. Borolda is thinking of something with a crease between his eyebrows.
Mr. Seiselk seems a little complicated, too.
Is there something wrong?
After all, couldnât you tell me about Sola?
âIvy, its slime, but is it possible that Meera saw it?
Shivering slightly at Mr. Seiselkâs hard voice.
âI donât think so.â
âRight. Who else knows?
â⊠I donât think heâs hereâ
âThen you canât show it to anyone until the problem is solved. Never.â
Iâm afraid of Mr. Seiselkâs serious eyes.
I donât have a voice and I snort, but why not?
Iâm not going to make you look defenselessâŠâŠ
âWhen it is known, Ivyâs value increases. Anyone who adds value to them will try to get anything.â
Worth it?
Taming a rare slime added value?
Is that what this is about?
Your whole body is stiff to Mr. Boroldaâs words.
I felt something warm in my gripping hand.
When I saw it, Mr. Ratlua was gently wrapping my gripping hand around me.
âItâs okay, weâre here.â
â⊠Yesâ
Look at my condition. Mr. Rickbelt made me a new cup of tea to settle down a little. \nDrinking slowly calms my mind soothingly.
Strength also falls out of the tense body.
Itâs all right.
Some people protect me, and some Sora.
So fine.
âYesterday. We came back here once. Not long before the evening, I guess.â
Mr. Ratluaâs bright voice made the atmosphere of the place a little brighter.
âWhat, did you?
âYes, and yet I panicked because Ivy wasnât there. Maybe they caught him.â
âOh, excuse me. I really wanted to make sure. I never felt uncomfortable during the journey, so maybe it was my fault. So if youâre alone, I thought you might know somethingâŠâ
âWhat, did you? WeâŠâ
Tilt his neck to Mr. Boroldaâs slightly panicked voice.
âYes?â
âLook, I told you Ivyâs different because sheâs solid for her age!
âBad. Oh, I mean, other than Ratlua, he went to play defenseless. Well⊠hey?
Iâm surprised at what Mr. Borolda said.
I didnât know they were looking at me that wayâŠâŠ but yeah, because I acted alone even though they were after me.
âExcuse me. I acted lightlyâŠâ
To my apology, Mr. Borolda in the face.
âAre you sure Ivyâs 8?
How dare you ask.
Iâm 8, but I donât know what.
Is that it?
But today was definitely the beginning of August, then.
âIâm 9 years oldâ
â⊠thatâs not what Iâm saying. What, 9 years old? You were eight a few days ago.â
âYesterday, because I hear the end of July is my birthday. Sheâs probably 9 years old.â
\nYouâre not looking at this, I think.
I guess it was because I was the leader of the crusade then.
âUm⊠meâ
âNo, you mean Ivyâs behavior. I donât know what to sayâŠâŠ you sensed it on the street yesterday, didnât you?
I guess itâs about that discomfort yesterday.
I nod quietly.
Mr. Borolda gives a slightly sad look.
âThere was Meera on the other side of the street thenâ
âReally, Mr. Meera?â
âThe person who was with Meera at the time was the problem. Well, thanks to that, we were able to determine who the traitor was.â
The person you were with?
I wonder if thatâs the guy whoâs been pointing that sticky gaze at me.
If itâs just Mr. Meera, I just feel uncomfortable.
âWhatâs up?
âEh⊠ah, yesterday I was not just uncomfortable, but also concerned about things like sticky gazeâŠâ
To my words, four people breathe.
And weâre looking at each other.
I donât know, did I say something strange?
âWhatâs wrong with you?
âAside from Tamer being Ivy, do you have a nursing skill?
âKanpa? No, but I donât have itâ
I wonder what kanpa is.
Never heard of it.
âWell, maybe he sensed it.â
I donât know.
But my skills are unknown to Tamer.
There is no mistake in this, so Kanpa will be different.
