The Beast Tamer Is A Slime

Chapter 45: “Narrow Escape”



SWOOSH! 

The slime bounced up and tried to catch Jaime's entire head with its body, but because Lee was blocking Jaime, the slime could only pounce on the tall guy. 

Lee was already distracted and didn't even pay attention to the slime cub who was motionless in his palm. 

He quickly gave the slime cub to Jaime and fought against the free slime with his bare hands! 

It was during this split second transfer that something happened. 

Jaime had just grabbed Neo in his palm when the slime Reo in his other hand suddenly wriggled. 

Before Jaime could react, the slime, who had always been obedient and docile, suddenly did something that no one would have expected. 

It actually jumped out of Jaime's arm and once its body was super close to the young master's face...

It used [Acid Spray] with no hesitation. 

PUFF! 

A torrent of transparent acid liquid flew from the adult slime's mouth straight to Jaime's face! 

All of this happened so fast, so sudden that Jaime didn't even have time to activate his skill and use the special effects' invincible state—

The acid spray had already landed straight on his face. 

PA! 

At that moment, the whole crowd suddenly went silent, as if someone froze the time. 

They all looked at Jaime with wide eyes full of disbelief. 

Some female hunters opened their mouths and the next second, the paused time flowed normally, followed by high-pitched female screams. 

"Ahhhh— " 

"Kyaaaaa— 

"The— the young master's slime is attacking people!!" 

All ten bodyguards who were doing their own things immediately looked towards the source of the scream. 

The next second, everyone's heart dropped to their stomach. 

"Y-young master!!!" 

The ten people desperately ran towards Jaime, but under their helpless eyes, they saw the acid liquid slowly corroding the young master's proud face. 

The slime's acid liquid was lethal and could even melt rock, so it was normal if Jaime's entire head melted. 

But Jaime might wear some kind of protection props, so the acid liquid only burnt the skin on his face, revealing the pink flesh beneath. 

Dark blood gushed out of the fair skin, and with every droplet sliding down, the acid liquid also followed, tearing open more and more skins without melting the flesh and bone. 

Jaime was so shocked that he stopped moving, acting like a statue. 

But the burning feeling and the stinging pain on his face forcefully woke up the young master from his shock. 

Jaime's whole body started to shake from head to toe. 

He didn't even care when the little slime in his hand jumped down towards Charlie in the distance. 

Jaime stubbornly lifted his trembling hands and reached out to touch his face. 

When his fingers touched the face, all he could feel was the sticky blood and the tender flesh exposed to the air. 

Jaime opened and closed his mouth, but no sounds came out. 

His face distorted due to the pain, and he slowly looked down at his own pet slime on the ground, the culprit of all his misfortune. 

Upon seeing his slime, 

Jaime, who couldn't utter even a single word out of his mouth, finally reacted. 

The next second, his scream resounded throughout the whole street. 

"AAAAAAAAAAA— " 

The entire place was plunged into chaos. 

The surrounding hunters were all scrambling away from the place, afraid that the slime would attack people. 

Lee and the other nine bodyguards had long forgotten about Charlie and Neo. 

They all surrounded Jaime with pale faces, as if it was them who got injured. 

"Young master! Quick! Use this Slime Water to stop the bleeding!" 

"Young master, eat this healing pill!"

"Young master— "

Lee Dragon quickly held Jaime down, afraid that the irrational Jaime would do something crazy. 

The young man's eyes had already turned bloodshot, and he was close to losing his mind. 

"Lee! Lee! Help me! Help!" 

Jaime kept screaming with a hoarse voice, and tears slid down his face, mixed with blood and the transparent acid liquid. 

It made his face even more of a mess than before. 

The group of people were so busy caring about their young master that they didn't realize a certain slime had already reunited with Charlie. 

Without any command, Charlie activated his [Shadow Steps] skill again. 

Then, he quickly blended with the crowd, reuniting with John, who was already waiting for them. 

John immediately used the [Body Shield] skill to push against the crowd, forcefully paving a path for Charlie and Neo, who was held tightly in Charlie's hand. 

[This way!] John threw Charlie's backpack and Charlie quickly snatched the backpack, hugging it tightly. 

Neo also consciously crawled into the backpack as the two hunters rushed to the entrance of the safe zone. 

In the distance, Jaime, who finally calmed down a bit and realized that the three humans plus one slime were gone, instantly roared with all of his strength! 

"CATCH THEM!!" "

"KILL!!!" 

"Ah! Ah! Ahhhhhh— I want them dead!! Now!!!" 

Six F+ rank hunters quickly separated from their young master and rushed towards the crowd menacingly. 

Some of them even used various skills to speed up, not caring about the chaotic crowd. 

The safe zone's guards had already noticed the commotion and started to give orders to calm down the agitated crowds, but the six bodyguards still relentlessly chased after the three people. 

John and Charlie rushed out of the safe zone in a heartbeat and without saying anything, they immediately ran towards the nearby bus stop. 

Because the effect of Charlie's skill [Seek Advantages, Avoid Disadvantages] was still there, they immediately saw a bus at the bus stop, about to drive away. 

In the last few seconds before the bus departed, the two hunters jumped onto the bus with no hesitation! 

DING— 

The bus' door was closed. 

The next moment, the bus quickly whizzed past the six bodyguards who had just come out of the safe zone, blowing exhaust gas right on their faces. 

The bewildered six bodyguards could only see the billowing black gas and the back of the bus quickly disappearing from their sights. 

They lost Charlie and John's tracks!
