The Beast Tamer Is A Slime

Before the hunters could realize what the slime was doing and what kind of skill's special effects it was, the slime, which had no facial expressions, suddenly had eyes and mouth. 

The pair of cold blue eyes casually looked down at the four beasts shivering on the ground, and a strange but majestic aura spread out with the tiny slime as the center. 

When the invisible aura hit the four beasts, all of them immediately made a strange kneeling posture that was so ugly the hunters almost got STYE. 

What the hell—  

But a more shocking thing happened. 

After the special effects slowly disappeared and the slime jumped back to the boy's pocket, the four beasts on the ground still "kneeled" with their heads lowered. 

The leech hunched its body so much that it wished it could become a coma sign. 

The slime laid flat on the ground, almost becoming one with the floor. 

The snail curled its soft body, so much so that only the shell was sticking up high. 

The fungi simply closed its mushroom cap tightly and bent its back, making a standard bowing posture. 

The four beasts did this series of strange things all at the same time, and then, under everyone's eyes...

They kowtowed in the direction of the slime! 

A literal kowtow. 

They all hit their "heads" to the floor repeatedly, almost crushing their own head. 

But they didn't stop and eagerly showed their submission, as if afraid that a certain slime would dislike their action for not being solemn enough. 

The entire lobby...fell into a brief silence. 

It was a familiar silence that Charlie had experienced twice so far. 

Those who were fighting John, those who were chasing the roaming beasts around, even the beasts...

Somehow, it was as if someone pressed a pause button, and for a split second, they all froze on the spot. 

The belated guards, who came rushing from another area and already expected to see a chaotic brawl— 

They only saw a bunch of human and beast "mannequins". 

The group of guards stopped at their tracks and looked at the silent lobby with question marks all over their heads. 

What...? What's wrong? Why are these people freezing like that? 

Even the beasts...the beast also calmed down at some point, not daring to move from their position. 

All of this was the effect of [Beast Conqueror Aura]. 

With Neo's current E-rank, one level higher than all the beasts in the lobby, the aura he released had a crushing impact. 

Not to mention that it was an aura released by a natural-born ruler in the world of beasts. 

The beast tamer. 

The conqueror.

Master of all beasts!

Even if Neo's range of skill was not that large due to his cub body, his beast tamer identity was there, and his crushing level against beasts was also there. 

It would be strange if the other beasts weren't affected to a certain degree! 

Surprisingly, these F-rank hunters were also somewhat affected to various degrees, with the least affected having heart palpitations and the most affected having an urge to kneel in front of the golden slime. 

Tom and the two sidekicks fell to the ground on their butts in disgrace, exactly like Charlie, whom Tom despised all-day long. 

Those who were recording the entire chaotic scene, taking pictures and videos, almost collectively dropped their phones to the ground. 

Even their hands were shaking so badly that the videos they took became blurry. 

Just..just what kind of aura was that? 

They felt as if they were standing in front of a gigantic slime the size of a mountain instead of a small slime. 

Everyone was tongue-tied, and everyone suddenly held their breath. 

Their view on the golden slime drastically changed, from a unique commodity and a helpless treasure, to something....

Mysterious and powerful. 

Something that no humans could casually play with or look down upon. 

Something...that was supposed to be at the top of the pyramid, a being to be looked up to. 

The suffocating silence lasted for a whole minute and only then did the aftereffects of the skill subside. 

The paused scene immediately flowed normally. 

Still, even after that mysterious feeling disappeared, everyone quietly backed away from Charlie and the golden slime. 

Those who were holding daggers to attack the slime put away their daggers and scrambled to other places, like defeated dogs and chicks. 

A few slippery hunters who saw the group of guards behind them had already run away with no shame. 

Young people who recorded the whole thing quickly retreated to other corridors and furiously edited the entire recording.

They must post this on the internet! 

A slime who could use the system's special effects, who also happened to be a mutated slime cub with a strange ability...

Is this the birth of a dungeon boss belonging to the slime dungeon? 

Are they going to witness history? 

The youngsters had no idea that the videos and articles he posted on the internet just to get some hype, would one day really change their World District 9 forever. 

Other cunning hunters also quickly snapped out of their shock. 

Instead of targeting the slime again, they secretly captured the beasts on the ground and ran away, not waiting for the guards to come and arrest them.  

John and Charlie were also smart. 

Before the guards came pouring in, they returned to the quiet corridor, leaving the mess behind to Tom, his two sidekicks and several slow-moving hunters as scapegoats. 

In an instant, the crowded lobby became so sparse with only five to eight bewildered hunters who had to face a group of fifteen guards in black. 

To avoid the guards, John and Charlie tacitly ran all the way to the room they targeted before. 

They need a shelter, and this registration office was the best place to hide from the limelight, away from the ferocious guards who were here to catch people. 

Even if the guards watch the surveillance video later on, that would still take some time and by then, they would have finished the whole thing and left. 

So, without bothering to knock, John stormed straight into the room!
