The Beast Tamer Is A Slime

Chapter 10: “[Cub's Cry]”



The slime on John's palm suddenly shone with a familiar white light! 

Seeing the glowing slime, this time, the hunters were not so shocked. 

Even John didn't let go of the slime and curiously looked at what kind of skill the slime cub would use. 

Under everyone's fiery gaze, a pink swaddle suddenly wrapped around the golden slime, and a pacifier was forcibly thrust into the cub's pouty mouth. 

Then, when the cub let out the weak cry, two stripes of water instantly poured out of the slime's "eyes", forming an exaggerated water fountain! 

"Chiii! Chiii! Waaaaa— waaaaa— " 

As the slime cried out of breath, the pacifier jumped out of its mouth and disappeared, leaving a pool of illusory tears around the slime wrapped in a swaddle. 

The six hunters thought that they were already used to the slime's various strange special effects, but when they saw the [Cub's Cry] special effect...

They were still stunned beyond relief. 

What the— how did the cub suddenly cry like that? It acted as if they bullied it to death! 

Daniel was the most embarrassed among the six hunters. 

He had just said that the cub would be sensible and would never cry to attract its parents. 

But it cried the next second! 

The six hunters' faces turned blue, white, black and red, as colorful as a palette. 

They immediately looked at the dark cave in front of them, afraid that the cub's parents would suddenly appear. 

But they waited for one minute...

Not even a shadow appeared. 

Two minutes...

The cub had started to hiccup and the cry slowed down. 

Three minutes...

The skill's special effect slowly disappeared, and the six hunters felt something strange in their hearts. 

When they looked at the cub again, it was as if they were looking at their own babies. 

Especially the two female hunters. 

Their maternal love suddenly burst out. 

Even Tom, the one with the coldest heart, couldn't help but feel strange. 

That slime really looked cute when it was using the special skill. 

The two female hunters in the team were already waving white flags, surrendering to the little slime's cuteness. 

One cute special effect is okay, twice is bearable, but three times is too much! 

They really couldn't bear to kill the slime! 

So what if the slime was a mutated slime? 

Just let it live. 

If it didn't want to follow them out to be a pet, they could also let it live safely in the "wild".  

While the hunters were staring at the slime that slowly lost its special effect, Neo himself was delighted with the result of his experiment. 

Ah! It worked! He could feel these hunters were slowly giving up on killing him and planned to take him out instead.

But he also didn't want to be someone's pet. He wanted these people to be his pet! 

Whatever. At least in the end, the result was satisfying. 

These hunters should have already lowered their guards against him. 

If he tried to eat their weapons next…

They wouldn't mind, right? 

Neo "rubbed" his invisible hands and quietly looked at the hunters, who were leaning on the wall and chatting with each other. 

They ignored the slime on John's palm but would still take a peek from time to time. 

From what Neo could see, the four hunters, namely John, Remy, Lina and Daniel, were much closer to each other than Tom and Charlie. 

It looked like Tom was stuffed into the group at the last minute while Charlie was simply here to be a cleaner and a porter. 

Neo didn't really care about the relationship between these human beings and just wanted to see where the hunters kept their weapons. 

It should be close to their bodies, not inside their backpacks. 

Maybe the Goddess of luck felt that Neo was too pitiful, so she finally smiled at him, giving him a little bit of luck. 

Just when Neo was thinking about the weapons, coincidentally, the hunters were also talking about their weapons. 

"Damn it. Among other F-rank dungeons, this is why I hate the slime dungeon the most." 

Tom, the hunter with the worst temper, started to complain as he showed his twin daggers to the other hunters. 

Tom looked like someone who didn't lack money, but he was still feeling heartache for his beloved twin daggers. 

Neo quietly stayed at John's palm and openly "peeked" at the twin daggers in Tom's hand, only to see something interesting. 

The tip of the twin daggers had already turned black and charred, as if corroded by something. 

It must be the slime's acidic liquid. When the dagger stabbed the slime's core, it would still be corroded bit by bit. 

"My twin daggers are so expensive. I thought the slime's acid liquid won't damage it at all, but damn!" 

Tom continued to complain as he put his twin daggers on the left and right side of his waist, where he tied the dagger's scabbard. 

When Tom complained, the other hunters soon chirped after Tom, complaining about the disgusting slime's acidic liquid. 

"Me too. My knife is not an ordinary knife at all, but it has already been damaged to this extent, " 

Remy scoffed as she put her beautiful carved knife on the ground with eyes full of regret and resentment. 

"If I knew that the slimes here would be much stronger than the slimes in other slime dungeons, I would have just used ordinary knives as consumables!"

Remy couldn't understand why the slimes they encountered were much more powerful than the ones in the other slime dungeons.

Is this a bad omen?
