"You want to keep slime? What does that mean? The chief and the leaders of the beastmen were astonished. "In the future we want them to take care of our filth and garbage. I've heard that slimes live under cliffs and don't climb walls. If my imagination is correct, then slimes live under cliffs, eating fallen monsters and insects. "That's right. But slimes are demons, remember? Of course, I don't mean to belittle the safety aspect. For example, if we dispose of the slime we have every few years by fire and catch new slime to prevent it from mutating, we can keep it safely, can't we? In fact, when I was in Portalime, I found out from various sources that there are monsters that don't attack people and that live in harmony with people. If you think that monitor lizards are a good resource for food, don't you think that other demons could be a resource in some way? What exactly do you have in mind? I'd like to do some tests to see if I can do that. First, we'll capture slime from the habitat under the cliffs into stone containers. Then I would like to see if they can dispose of their filth and garbage near the village and if they really don't climb walls. After that, I'd like to establish how to deal with it in the future, and I'd like to find out what it's weaknesses are. It's true that there is some risk. It's true that there may be some risk, but demons are also a resource... I never thought of it that way. I've never thought of it that way." "Then why don't you breed some monitor lizards to increase the number? The leader of the bear tribe was the first to show his approval, and one by one the leaders agreed. The leader of the Bear tribe was the first to agree, and the other leaders agreed. Sir, are you sure?
"Yes, I'll leave it to you. I'll leave it to you. I'll make a test pit for the slime tomorrow. ... ...Result. The slime breeding experiment was a great success. The slime was about 60cm long, bun-shaped, and light green in color. It could not climb higher than its own height, and even if it could, it would fall down unless it had a foothold that supported at least two-thirds of its surface. They were slow creatures. It seems that it absorbs feces and urine, rotting carcasses of living things, and garbage by gradually dissolving them in its body. It doesn't digest wood or grass very well, but it doesn't stop eating at all, and after a few days it was gone, so it must be able to absorb them. There was once an incident where a slime died for some reason, but it turned out to be just a lack of water, and now not many people have an aversion to this easy-to-keep and convenient monster. When I told them about my plan to build a sewer under the city and release the slime, they all looked at me delicately, but in the end they agreed. This was a lucky discovery, but it turned out that if you put slime in dirty water, it would only break down the dirt, and the water would only absorb enough to maintain its own function. I think that slime may be one of the self-cleaning functions of the world. I believe that we must be careful not to contaminate the slime with drugs or other strange substances, as any inappropriate contamination may cause a mutation in its constitution. The fact that there are so many kinds of slime in the world, based on records and stories, makes me think that slime may have mutated and evolved in a short span of time in order to maintain life in a particular environment. The theory of evolution has many mysteries when it comes to fantasy, so it's no use thinking about it too much, but I think I'm not too far off the mark. "Hey, can't I keep Sula as a pet? ...It's another story that I had a hard time explaining the dangers of keeping Sula-chan as a pet because she has become unexpectedly attached to people and popular, and there are many people who want to keep her.
