Crossover Anime/Manga - Not Everyday Life

Chapter 55: Another slime escaped.

The three white slimes were easily dealt with by Yukino Yukinoshita and Mahiru Shiina.

Yukino Yukinoshita took care of both.

With a baseball bat in hand, she has excellent hitting accuracy and can kill slimes from afar, provided she has enough ammunition to cause damage.

However, Xia Sheng's cooperation is still needed.

If Natsumi doesn't lure the slime away, Yukino Yukinoshita won't be able to deal with it.

Now, the slime's attack speed is too fast for her to avoid.

Shiina Mahiru was also difficult to deal with. If it weren't for the slime's singular attack and unchanging trajectory, she really wouldn't have been able to handle it.

This slime was her limit; next time, she wouldn't be able to rely on her physical abilities to deal with it.

What should we do with these three blue slimes?

The three stood a short distance in front of the three slimes, and Yukino Yukinoshita asked a question.

"Why don't you handle this, Natsumi? What if something goes wrong?" Shiina Mahiru said worriedly.

"An accident..." Xia Sheng recalled the situation with the black mist man.

"I agree with Shiina's suggestion," Yukino Yukinoshita said.

"Alright, I'll take care of them."

Xia Sheng stepped forward and approached the three slimes, without using the ability to conceal his presence.

He wanted to see if these three would be any different from the previous ones.

Xia Sheng kept approaching, until he was about four meters away from them, but they didn't react at all.

As he took another small step closer, the slimes began to move, and all three of them at once!

The three slimes, side by side, leaped up and crashed into Natsumi.

Xia Sheng hadn't expected the three to attack simultaneously. The long, sweeping attack was too much for him to dodge.

He hurriedly knelt down, leaned back, and looked up at the three slimes that swept past him.

so close!

While feeling relieved, Xia Sheng quickly got up and lunged forward to get away from the slime.

In case they launch a surprise attack.

However, Shiina Mahiru's urgent warning sounded.

"Xia Sheng, they've sped up and are running away!"

"What?!"

Xia Sheng couldn't believe it and turned around abruptly, his gaze fixed on the three rapidly wriggling slimes.

Their movement speed has indeed increased, but they are not moving towards the discovery made by Yukino Yukinoshita and Mahiru Shiina.

In front of them was just a wall.

Xia Sheng dared not take any chances. He got up and chased after him, raising his right fist as a shimmering white light condensed.

"Shiina, throw me a rock!" Yukino Yukinoshita raised her baseball bat, her gaze fixed on the three slimes, her expression serious.

"good!"

Shiina Mahiru instantly cooperated, throwing the stone she had been holding in her hand in front of her.

boom--!

call out--!

With a crisp cracking sound, the stone shot out like a bullet, whistling through the air, towards the slime on the far right.

At this moment, Xia Sheng caught up with the slime and punched the leftmost slime with his right fist.

Splat!

Two explosions rang out simultaneously, and the jelly-like corpses, resembling rotten mud, scattered everywhere.

Ignoring the splatter all over his body, Xia Sheng threw another punch, ready to strike the last slime.

But an unexpected scene unfolded: the only slime accelerated its movement once again, crawling to the stone wall.

Immediately afterwards, it crashed into it, but without any force; instead, it pierced through the stone wall and disappeared.

Xia Sheng stood there, stunned, his right fist hanging down, panting.

Another slime got away.

It's still a blue slime.

If the black-fuzzed creature was caused by the white slime, then this blue slime... might cause even more serious social harm.

Xia Sheng took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and felt guilty.

If he hadn't tested them and had simply used his abilities to deal with them directly from the start, he wouldn't have let the slimes escape.

The reason for this was his carelessness and lack of attention.

He underestimated slimes.

These blue slimes are intelligent; they could have been faster, but they initially feigned weakness to deceive him.

Their goal has always been the same: to invade the world.

"Xia Sheng..."

At that moment, Yukino Yukinoshita and Mahiru Shiina came to his side.

Shiina Mahiru asked with concern, "Are you alright?"

"It's okay... I'm sorry, it's all my fault." Xia Sheng shook his head, adjusted his mindset, and apologized to the two of them.

"You're not wrong. Nobody expected that slime to be so cunning. It's true that you can't take the settings in novels too seriously," Yukino Yukinoshita gently comforted her.

She didn't think Xia Sheng was wrong. His tests were necessary. If they didn't figure out the slime's various abilities, they would only suffer greater losses in the future.

"Yeah, I didn't expect that slime to be so fast. Natsuo, you don't need to blame yourself," Shiina Mahiru comforted her.

"But it's escaped, and it might cause great harm..."

"It's not certain yet. The last slime ran away and nothing happened..."

"No, something happened with that slime." Natsuo interrupted Yukino Yukinoshita, looking at her seriously.

"What do you mean?" Yukino Yukinoshita frowned and looked at him.

"There's something I've been keeping from you. I'll explain it to you on Sunday."

Another slime has escaped. We can no longer hide the truth about the Black Mist People.

On Sunday, Xia Sheng planned to be honest with his partner.

It's hard to explain on LINE, and there's no time left now. The three of them are starting to blur their feet; they're about to leave.

"Let's meet tomorrow. Judging from your expression, things are very serious." Yukino Yukinoshita stared at Natsuo and made a quick decision.

She sensed that things weren't so simple.

"I have no objection," Shiina Mahiru agreed.

"Okay, see you tomorrow then." Xia Sheng nodded.

[Successfully eliminated the intruder, rewarded with Danger Perception ability, 1 attribute point.]

His voice rang in my mind at the very last moment.

Xia Sheng thought there wouldn't be a reward this time.

......

On Saturday morning, after Natsuo and Shiina Mahiru finished their morning run, they enjoyed the breakfast she made. After changing their clothes, the two went out together.

Natsumi never expected to eat breakfast made by Shiina Mahiru today, and she didn't seem to be in a very happy mood.

Is it because you're worried about him?

Offer comfort.

Xia Sheng was indeed comforted, and the hot breakfast eased his guilt.

Guilt is not an issue; as long as he can still solve the problem, he must do everything in his power.

He wants to make amends for his mistake.

Yukino Yukinoshita sent a message in the group early in the morning to gather at 9:00 AM at the family restaurant where Natsuo and Miura Yumiko were studying.

This was the first time Natsuo had gone out with Shiina Mahiru, and it was broad daylight. He truly felt her charm.

Shiina Mahiru was dressed casually, in a very ordinary white dress with a light pink coat over it, but her demeanor was so extraordinary, just like that of a young lady from a wealthy family.

Along the way, people would often find themselves drawn to her, their eyes following her.

Xia Sheng was also being scrutinized because he was walking with her. They wanted to see what kind of person would walk with such an elegant girl.

Fortunately, he's not bad-looking; it's just that his fashion sense is a bit off.

He was wearing his only outfit when he went out, a very ordinary hooded sweatshirt.

I might consider buying two pieces of clothing.

After all, if I go out with Yukino and the others every week and always wear the same clothes, they might find me annoying.
