496 A monster appeared!? (2/2)

Nothing serious, and I think it's normal enough to cushion monsters.

”Well, no. That's why I'll catch Big Slime.”

Oops!

When we change into winter clothes, we leave the mansion and head for the back mountain.

”Al, there's a lot of roads buried, but can we move on?

”It's okay. I remember the path.”

If it's around here, I remember the way because I come and go occasionally.

There is nothing like falling into a ditch buried in snow or into a stream.

However, it is very difficult to proceed because there is quite a lot of snow.

If I have long legs and tall feet like Rumba, I'll be fine, but I'm eight years old now.

It was difficult to run even with a little snow.

”I'm going to get some snow out of my way.”

Use ice magic to bring snow to the edge of the path.

The snow was moving and the wet surface and grass were showing their faces.

”Oh, that's handy! Drop snow on the roof of my house!

”Er... well, I'll go to my home and do it for you.”

”Thank you!

If this is the wrong place, I will decline, but don't go past My Home.

What an exchange, I just saw my home.

There is white snow piling up on the roof.

It's made of earth magic, so it doesn't scare me with a little snow, but you can't overlook it as long as a resident named Lumba lives there. Even if it doesn't sting, it will hurt.

It is dangerous to leave the snow unattended when it will fall.

”Whoa.”

Use ice magic just like before to drop the snow on the roof and consolidate it in one place.

”Thank you! Whether you drop it or not, it'll be piled up immediately.”

”Ah, Bartolo and the others drop it every day at the Mansion.”

”The Mansion looks even worse.”

It certainly seems hard to drop that amount of snow every day.

Speaking of servants' work, it's dangerous to climb the roof, and I'll drop snow on the roof of the Mansion when I get back.

”Whoa, I see Erinola and the others!

As I followed Lumba, I saw Erinola, Emma, and Sheila.

”Hey, I brought Al!

Ah, you're finally here.

When Rumba called out, Erinola's sister finally looked back.

As a matter of course, it doesn't seem like we're desperately stopping the Big Slime.

Alfred, it's been a long time.

It's cold ~

”Long time no see. It's cold.”

I mean, the three of them didn't even have a sword in Lok's hand, so it was as comfortable as waiting for someone.

Well, even though it's big, slime. There will be no danger of these three being wary.

”So where's the big slime?

He's over there.

Erinola's sister pointed in the direction, and a large slime stood there.

”That's the big slime....”

There is nothing unusual about the appearance. A round, gel-like organism with a clear light blue body.

It felt like the slime was getting bigger.

”The snow I'm wearing looks like sugar. It looks delicious.”

”Ah, I know that ~!”

Sheila shook her head vertically and agreed to Roomba's murmuring.

Indeed, when I heard that, the snow-capped big slime seemed delicious.

Looks like there's white sugar on the rounded body. It kind of reminds me of walnut mochi.

”You're not particularly attacked, are you?

”Yes, for now.”

”You've been there forever, haven't you?”

It's like Al.

Miss Erinola, is there a final analogy?

But I'm sure that Big Slime is all right.

I don't have any face so I don't know where to look or what to do at all.

Erinola, I'm sure you know the sisters are close, but there's no sign of any action. Strange guy.
