Chapter 254: 258

Chapter 258: 201

The leader of the Dragon People warriors warns Tauro to flee to the break room.

Then, the leader, wary of the slime emperor, sees the numbers written on the mud wall in the corner of his vision.

“2……01, ……201 layers!”

The leader involuntarily looked over and shuddered.

It was the deepest level that the dungeon capture group had not reached since they arrived more than a few decades ago.

But in the next instant, the warriors were using reinforcement-type magic on their allies, some holding shields ready to attack, some chanting magic and attacking the slime emperor, and some analyzing with monster appraisal to be sure, and some holding spears to attack the slime emperor directly following the magic.

The leader also chose to attack directly in order to buy Tauro time to escape.

Basically, slime emperors have a high level of resistance to magic-based attacks and are weak against direct attacks.

However, it has excellent agility and is extremely difficult to hit with a direct attack.

“What is this? Leader! This isn’t just an ordinary slime emperor! A normal one shouldn’t have appraisal inhibition! This guy is probably a variant of the Slime Emperor!”

Just to be sure, the person who was conducting the monster appraisal warned the leader who launched the direct attack.

The leader, who was already moving despite hearing the warning on his back, slammed his sword into the Slime Emperor, drowning out the wind magic that had hit him to buy time.

The other warrior also thrust his spear.

But their attacks were met with a dull thud.

“Resistant to physical attacks!”

Not only the two attackers, but also the other warriors who were watching the spectacle were astonished.

As the appraiser had said, it was far removed from the characteristics of the slime emperor in the information brought back by the capture group.

Tauro, realizing that the warriors above him were helpless and that he would only be a liability if he remained here, chose to flee to the break room as quickly as possible, as the leader had warned.

Everyone can’t back down when I’m here.

In the worst case, my allies  could be wiped out.

But the next moment came.

The slime, which seemed to be a subspecies of the Slime Emperor, sensed Tauro’s attempt to escape to the break room and instantly dived through the warriors with unimaginable agility, moving between Tauro and the break room to stand in his way.

“Ha, that was fast!”

Tauro had no choice but to stop his feet, which were on the move.

Clearly a move that prevented him from understanding the conversation and escaping.

“Tauro-dono!”

The leader voiced his panic at the fact that Tauro, the target he was supposed to protect, was now closest to the enemy.

The slime moved its body and a part of its body changed into a sharp spear-like shape.

“The slime emperor reportedly does not change its form. ……, Tauro-san, please be careful, it’s trying to do something…”

The next moment, the leader was running toward Tauro, calling out to him from behind.

The slime instantly stretched out the part that changed its shape into a spear and stabbed Tauro.

No, it pierced the space where Tauro was.

In an instant Tauro moved to the slime’s side, and in the next instant he was between the break room and the slime, and at the last second he jumped into the break room.

Tauro had read the slime’s physical attacks and used his “spatial transfer” accordingly to escape.

“”””Good!”””””

The dragon people warriors made a fist pump as Tauro was able to safely escape to the break room.

The slime, perhaps not giving up on targeting Tauro, attacked with a sharply pointed part of its body, but it was blocked by something between it and the break room, and the attack was repelled.

Watching this scene before his eyes, Tauro drank a magic recovery potion and stood up.

“…… I’m going to try to tame this slime!”

Tauro said so that the leader could hear him.

“If it is a normal slime, it will succeed almost 99% of the time, but this is a Slime Emperor, an unconfirmed subspecies. The chance of success may be less than 1%. …… Unless you’re extremely lucky, you won’t succeed! Besides, I don’t think the tame can be used without leaving the safe zone, the break room. Please don’t take that risk!”

The leader issued a warning as best he could given the level of danger.

If he lost Tauro here and now, the Dragon People’s long-cherished wish to conquer the dungeon would become distant again, and that was something he could not overlook as one of the warriors.

But even for Tauro, there was a danger that if he did not take the mission himself, the Dragon People warriors would be annihilated.

That could not be overlooked.

The slime seemed to understand what Tauro was trying to do, and once it stopped attacking, it seemed to be looking for a way out.

“……Then, I will do it.”

“Alright! ──Everyone!”

The leader, perhaps feeling that Tauro’s decision could not be overturned, decided to divert attention as much as possible and launched an attack on the slime with everyone without even saying a word.

At that moment, Tauro jumped out of the boundary of the break room, and said,

“Tame!”

He chanted towards the slime.

The slime didn’t even tremble against Tauro’s taming, and feeling no pain or itch from the leaders’ attack, jumped out and thrust a part of its body between Tauro’s eyebrows in an attempt to finish him off.

But again, Tauro used “spatial transfer” to avoid the attack.

Tauro moved to the side of the slime and chanted “Tame!” again.

The slime is unmoved and thrusts a part of its body at Tauro again.

Tauro moved to avoid it again the next moment by “spatial transfer,” and repeated tame.

The slime, however, had read his movements as well.

It moved instantly to the place where Tauro appeared, and attacked between the eyebrows to finish him off this time.

“Tame!”

At the same time, Tauro’s word “tame” and the slime’s attack pierced his eyebrow.

Blood trickled down from the brow where it had pierced.

‘……… success ……?”

A part of the slime’s sharp pointy body stabbed a little between Tauro’s eyebrows, causing blood to flow out, but it was stopped at a shallow stage.

‘Are you okay ……, sir?”

The leader calls out to Tauro.

As if in response, the slime retracted the sharply pointed body part into its body.

“… It looks like it’s okay. ── Phew… It was dangerous… It was a close call, but I succeeded in taming it.”

“I can’t believe you really pulled it off at the last minute …….”

The leader was both amazed and appalled.

“Haha. In case you’re wondering, I think the odds were still, I guess, high, because I have the ‘ luck’ ability. Well, I didn’t succeed the first time, ……, but it was dangerous as expected.”

Tauro chuckled as he reflected on his own risky bet.

“….. haa. You are being too reckless. Oh, and now that it’s become a familiar, please give it a name. That way, you will be able to communicate with them to some extent.”

“I see. Then, from today on, you will be my familiar. Your name is ……, well, ……, you are a slime emperor, so ……, ‘Pella’.”

The slime seemed to like the name, shook itself and jumped up and down on the spot.
