Chapter 377 - The Great Potential Of Rust (1/2)

-----

Chaos introduced the little slime to all of the rest of his allies, as they saw the slime, Rust, with surprised eyes. They seemed to have been rather shocked by its cuteness, and how friendly it was with everyone, however when they offered him food, he didn't take it… but he did ate the metallic utensils they used for eating dinner though.

”This creature is a reincarnated soul, are you sure about that, Chaos-sama? It doesn't seem as intelligent as Abyss or Rot.” Said Belphegor. He began to think that Chaos might be wrong, Rust was way too childish and curious to be a reincarnated soul, right?

No… now that Belphegor remembered, Abyss was also quite like that at the beginning, so maybe that wasn't the case, and Rot at the beginning didn't knew how to speak either… So perhaps it was because of this reason that the little metal slime was like this, but over time it would grow more mentally.

Nonetheless, having a metallic slime wandering around above the table put him nervous, even though he didn't really ate at all and just was there with the rest, he found it might be a bit disturbing to have a slime wander over their food.

”Rust, that's enough, come here.” Said Abyss.

Rust quickly obeyed his ”mama”, as he flew towards her in an instant, jumping over her legs and resting over her lap silently, he had small beady black eyes, which when he rested closed, and he looked very cute.

Abyss caressed his head, making him even happier, she discovered his body was very heavy despite having taken a small form again, he was able to compress his own mass, but the weight of his mass would still remain, if it wasn't because Abyss is incredibly physically strong, she wouldn't be able to hold him with her legs.

”Yeah, it is reincarnated. I already checked his soul, despite how he might look like, he is indeed a reincarnated soul like Abyss and Rot.” Said Chaos.

”Like me?” asked Rot. ”Is Rust my brother?”

”Yes… it could be said that he is your brother, Rot.” Said Chaos. ”So make sure to welcome him.”

”I-I will!” said Rot happily, she quickly moved at the side of Abyss and began to pet the adorable slime with her hands.

”Rust brother!” she said happily. She was still learning how to speak properly.

”I-I see… I understand then.” Said Belphegor. ”He seems very unique, I had seen metal slimes before, but they were not able to do any of the insane things that Rust had just showcased to be capable of doing, I am very impressed.”

”Indeed. Just by analyzing the entire structure of this slime, I can tell it is just liquid metal.” Said Edward. ”It has the ability to assimilate metals and add them to his body as part of him, and also, you said he can ”possess” objects with high technology, my lord?”
