A slime came out of the pillar

On a leisurely and peaceful afternoon, Giyuu Tomioka appeared at the headquarters of the Ghost Slayer Squad. He had just finished his mission, let go of his hostility, exuded a calm atmosphere, and was silently walking towards the lord's mansion. .

Passing through the quiet bamboo forest, surrounded by the sound of gurgling water, I happened to bump into a team member. He nodded and greeted the other party briefly, and accidentally kicked a small clod of soil under his feet.

This should not be something worthy of attention, but Yoshiyuki Tomioka stopped because of this. He stood there expressionless, staring at the small clod he kicked into the middle of the road for a while .

I saw the small clod of soil rolling a few times on the ground, staying there without moving, and after a few minutes, it actually rolled up by itself, and jumped into the grass beside it.

Yiyong stared at the grass with the same expression as usual: "Chloe, long time no see."

After a while, only a slight sound came from the grass, as if someone was speaking in a low voice: "Yiyong? Is it you?"

"Well, it's me."

"Is there anyone else around you?"

"No."

"..."

After three seconds of silence, there was a rustling noise in the grass, followed by a white slime popping out.

I haven't seen him for a few months. The boy in front of me has grown a lot taller, and his breath has become calmer. Looking at that familiar face, Chloe felt sore eyes, and hot tears rolled down without warning. .

"What's wrong with you?" Yi Yong frowned slightly when he realized that something was wrong.

"I... I'm being hunted down..." The total amount of tears Chloe shed was almost larger than his own volume, and they were still piling up at a rate of one milliliter per second.

"By whom?"

"...I won't be able to tell you clearly in a while."

Chloe felt a little ashamed of himself like this, but he felt wronged in his heart. He sniffled and his tears flowed a little slower: "Where are you going?"

"Go to see the lord." Yi Yong said truthfully.

"I'll go with you, too." Chloe didn't turn into a human, but kept the slime prototype and jumped on top of his head. "It might be safer there."

Yi Yong actually wanted to ask him what made him so scared that he would rather turn into dirt and hide by the side of the road, but after another thought, he would definitely tell Chloe if he didn't ask, so he didn't open his mouth.

Sure enough, Chloe was whimpering and complaining to him all the way: "That guy is scarier than a ghost... He clearly said that I didn't kill that bug... I couldn't beat him, and I couldn't run away. I can't drop it... neither the lord nor Kanae are willing to help me... Shinobu laughs at me every day... Do you understand my bitterness! Do you understand!"

... Giyuu expressed his confusion.

"I'm alone here, alone, with no one to help me. Is it easy for me!" Chloe said more and more wronged, and the top of his head was almost wet from crying. Yi Yong wondered if he had learned to swim with his eyes for so many days. of breathing.

"But it's all right now, you and Sato are back, and someone backs me up, I'm going to take revenge on Snow today—"

In the middle of Chloe's speech, he suddenly fell silent. Yiyong sensed something was wrong, looked up, and found that he had turned into a bunch of dogtail grass at some point and stood on his head.

At this time, a person came towards him, with short silver-white hair fluttering unruly in the wind, and scars all over his body. It could be seen that this person had experienced very tragic battles before, and even his brows revealed a fierce aura.

That person obviously also saw Tomioka Yoshiyuki. At this moment, Yoshiyuki was staring at a swaying dogtail grass and walking calmly on the road, and everyone had to take a few more glances.

Undead Kawa Minami glanced at the top of Giyuu's head, noticing something strange, narrowing his eyes dangerously, but didn't say anything, and passed him directly.

Yiyong walked hundreds of steps with his eyes straight ahead, and the breath of Undead River got farther and farther away from him until it dissipated.

"he has gone."

"...No, he's everywhere."

What Chloe said was the truth. During the period of training under Undead Chuan, he tried various ways to escape, changing all kinds of flowers and plants, but in the end he would be discovered by Undead Chuan. This man is really terrible.

"He didn't notice it. It seems that this form is still safe. Let's keep it until the lord's mansion."

"……All right."

In this way, Tomioka Yoshiyuki walked to the mansion of Yuyashiki with a dog's tail grass. The team members he met along the way cast all kinds of strange eyes on him, and he still did not change his expression. Chloe commented that he was very There is the style of a general.

"Hey! Yiyong!" Sato came one step ahead of him, saw him from a long distance, and immediately rushed up and grabbed his arm: "You seem to have grown taller again, eh! You have become more manly than before That's it!" They had actually just met on mission two weeks ago.

"Huh? Why do you wear grass on your head?" Sato noticed the dogtail grass on top of his head.

"That's Chloe." Yi Yong picked off the dogtail grass on his head and held it in his hand. Chloe instantly changed back to a slime, but it was much smaller than before, and the size became similar to that of a slime. Rice balls are about the same.

"Sakurai! Long time no see!" Chloe's emotions came and went quickly, and after talking to others, the depression in his heart almost dissipated, and after confirming that his life was not in danger, he immediately returned to his previous state. Vitality: "Have you received the sword I sent you a while ago, how do you feel?"

A while ago, Fushikawa broke his original Japanese sword and specially forged a new sword. Only then did he find that the swords of the pillars were different from those of ordinary players. Sato and Sato forged different swords respectively.

Yoshiyuki's sword was already attached to the Japanese round sword, he had seen it just now, as for Saitu's sword, he didn't seem to be pinning it on his waist.

"Very good! Chloe, you are really amazing!" Sato nodded appreciatively, "My sun wheel knife was a bit damaged, so I sent it to Forging Sword Village, and you can see it tomorrow."

I don't know if it's because of his previous encounters, but now he pays special attention to the maintenance of the Sun Wheel Knife, and everyone in Forging Knife Village has a good impression of him because of this.

"I kept you two waiting for a long time, please come in with me now."

In the middle of their conversation, Miyashiki's youngest daughter Bifang appeared in the courtyard, saluted them respectfully, turned around and led them to the door of the lord's room.

Ubuyashiki's condition seemed to have worsened a few days ago, and she couldn't get out of bed for a few days, and even the Zhuhe meeting was postponed. Kanae was very worried, and specially called Chloe back from Fushikawa to see if she could do it. What delays the lord's illness.

Chloe said that he was powerless. In fact, he felt it from the first time he saw Yushiki. There was a potential magic power entangled in him. What he suffered from was not an incurable terminal illness, but a kind of A curse that slowly drains life.

The curse seems to have lasted for hundreds of years. Chloe is just a low-level monster, and he doesn't have enough magic power to break it. What he can do now is to invent more painkillers to relieve some of the pain caused by the obstetrician. pain.

"Then I'll wait here, you guys go in." Chloe jumped out of Yiyong's hands consciously, he came here just to hide from Undead Chuan, there was no need to follow along.

"It's okay, Chloe, you can come in together."

The people inside the door heard his voice and responded like this.Chloe hesitated for a moment, then followed in the footsteps of Sato and Giyuu and walked in together.

The room was dimly lit, with only one oil lamp lit. The wife of the princess knelt quietly on one side, and the obstetrician lay in the bedding, and smiled at them with difficulty: "I'm so sorry, the doctor said that my current physical condition is not suitable for sitting. Li, let you laugh."

"It doesn't matter, we just hope that your body can recover soon, my lord."

Satoshi looked concerned, and although Yiyong didn't speak, he nodded sincerely.

Ubuyashiki coughed a few times, and then continued to ask after he was relieved: "Have you discussed the candidate for Mizuzuki?"

"The person who is most suitable for the water column is Satu." Yiyong opened his mouth before Satu. He had a serious face and a serious attitude: "I have no qualifications to be a pillar at all."

I don’t know how many times I have heard this kind of rhetoric, and Sato raised his eyebrows, only feeling the blue veins on the forehead twitching, and his expression was sullen: "That day on the Fuji attack mountain, if I was the one who was injured, you, Yiyong, would definitely do the same. I have the same choice, don’t belittle yourself because of this matter, or I will be impolite.”

Yiyong opened his mouth, he didn't know where to start, and he was afraid that Sato would get angry because of this matter: "My personality is not suitable for being a pillar. If it is Sato, you must..."

"On this issue, I have the same opinion as Sabito, Giyu." Ubashiki interrupted their argument, looking at Giyu with a gentle expression: "Since joining the Demon Slayer Squad, your strength and I and the other children It’s obvious to all, so don’t belittle yourself.”

Hearing the lord's words, Yoshiyuki raised his head and looked at Ubuyashiki at a loss, his fists on his knees couldn't help but clenched a bit, hesitantly looked at Sarabbit next to him, hesitating to speak.

Sato took a deep breath and forcibly resisted the urge to hit him on the head, "A man can't be so unconfident!"

"It seems that no matter which one of you becomes a pillar, you will definitely feel guilty towards the other." Miyashiki smiled kindly, and secretly made a decision in his heart: "The next pillar meeting, you two should attend together .”

"what do you mean……"

"Well, after all, it's not that the previous Demon Slayer Team did not have an example of a double partner serving as a pillar. I also discussed it with the former Mr. Mizuzhu Rinaki a few days ago, and we unanimously decided to adopt Chloe's plan—"

"Huh?" Chloe, who had been huddling in the corner of the room and trying to act as a transparent person, straightened out the content of the conversation at this moment, and was suddenly taken aback: "My opinion was actually adopted?"

Sabito's itchy fist from the very beginning successfully landed on his head: "Don't interrupt my lord."

"...Yes, I'm sorry."

Chloe's sullen expression made Ubuyashiki laugh, and the corner of his mouth deepened a bit: "Then I will count on you guys from now on, Mizuzu-sama."

"Tianyin will tell you about Zhu's work. Now let's send someone to take you to Shuizhu's mansion."

Ubuyashiki continued to explain, and the lady beside her got up gracefully, "Please come with me, both of you."

Has the mansion been allocated so soon, I don't know what it will be like.

Just when Chloe was ready to follow with curiosity, Maternity House called out to him: "Chloe, stay here for a while, I have something else to tell you."

"Ah? Oh." Chloe, who was left behind by the roll call, moved back slowly.

After Sabito and Giyuu left, Miyashiki Amane carefully closed the door, leaving only Chloe and the lord in the room, and the atmosphere suddenly became deserted.

Chloe has already prepared the belly draft in advance. If the lord wants him to go back to Undead River, then he must loudly accuse Undead River for so many days of atrocities, so that the lord realizes that such behavior is sending himself to the fire pit. No, to hell.

"That cat was raised by Xingming."

"...Huh?" Chloe was startled for a moment, then gritted her teeth, and said viciously, "Is that nasty real murderer? Where is he now? I must bring him to justice and let him return my innocence."

Even if there is a backing of rock pillars, it is useless. The emperor committed the same crime as the common people when he broke the law. Even if he is a related household, he cannot cover up the fact that he killed Gentaro!

"Don't be so excited, listen to me." Miyashiki smiled at him, "Xingmei has already apologized to Shimi today, it is his cat who made a mistake, and it has nothing to do with you. I will also talk to Shimi After that, he won't scare you anymore."

My lord, maybe you have misunderstood the word 'scare'.

Undead Chuan was not scaring him at all, it was obvious that he wanted him to die!

Although he was shouting in his heart, since Undead Chuan already knew the truth about Gentaro's death, he would definitely not hunt him down again. Chloe finally let go of his hanging heart, "That's really great."

Chloe's mood suddenly became clear. Just as he was about to leave, the obstetrician behind him suddenly stopped him again: "Chloe."

"Ok?"

"When you have time in the future, let's read more about the team rules."
