Me? A slime? A villain who destroys a nation? Fine!

Outside the window, a blue slimy creature peeked into the store, its silly expression pressed against the glass.

Just then, the shop door opened by itself in a strange way, as if it were welcoming Lin Ming's arrival, which almost startled him.

While Lin Ming was still looking at the graffiti cursing on the wall, the door opened by itself.

Lin Ming darts to the door, then bouncyly curls into a small ball and rolls inside.

"Is anyone here?" Lin Ming looked around curiously. Although the lighting and atmosphere made people think a lot, it actually seemed like a bar when he came in.

As soon as the wind chimes on the door rang, Lin Ming turned around and found that the wooden door had closed by itself, as if on purpose.

Lin Ming was just taking a sneak peek, how did he become a customer? He was already preparing to go back to be with Slime Mom.

"Come in, what are you standing there for?"

A sweet voice called out to Lin Ming, and even though Lin Ming's slime was unconscious, the voice was so sweet that it made Lin Ming's soul itch.

He grunted, but still obediently rolled inside; after all, he was already there...

At the tavern's front desk, a woman with pointed ears was mixing drinks, and soon the wooden barrels were filled.

Lin Ming was too small, so all that could be seen was a black shadow with pointed ears. Because of this, Lin Ming had already begun to imagine what various elven older sisters would look like.

Knowing that the drink was for him, Lin Ming obediently climbed up. His small body meant that once he sat down, his head was completely hidden from view on the bar. It was only when Lin Ming stretched his head out that the barista saw his silly face.

"My lady, would you like me to raise your stool a little higher?"

"Huh? You know me?" Lin Ming looked at the fairy in front of him in surprise and found that she looked familiar.

The other person wasn't wearing tavern clothes, but rather a black robe covering their body, so much so that it was as if Leila from the daytime had transformed from a cat head into elf ears.

"You don't recognize me after just one day, Fairy?" The fairy began to teasingly unbutton her neck button, her fingertips slowly unbuttoning her chest as if taking a stroll.

Then, she opened her robe, and the sudden burst of surprise made Lin Ming's big eyes widen, causing them to sway rhythmically.

Lin Ming was drawn to the two brightly colored items inside the robe, and the neatly arranged merchandise.

"No, you rocked it for so long, and this is what you show me?" Lin Ming felt inexplicably disappointed when he saw the familiar puppet's body.

"My lady, are you getting the wrong idea? This isn't a succubus shop."

"There are such shops?" Lin Ming suddenly asked curiously, his eyes starting to sparkle.

"Uh..." Leila paused for a moment.

"So... is there such a thing as a succubus...?" Lin Ming whispered as he leaned closer to ask.

"Ahem... Fairy, are you not planning to take revenge on the Kingdom of Prester?"

"Of course I want to! I wish I could skin them alive and chew their bones to pieces!!" Lin Ming immediately got angry and bristled, his slime turning red and pulsating like a hedgehog.

Seeing that the topic was back on track, Leila smiled and said, "This is the supplies I told the fairy before I left. Since we've met again, take a look and see if there's anything you like. I'll give you one for free, and I'll give you a 10% discount on the rest."

"You really are Leila? Those elf ears of yours are...?"

"It's a decorative item, just like the previous cat-eared doll. It's an ornament. I originally planned to wander around the elves, but I don't know why it ended up here."

Lin Ming was greatly disappointed upon hearing this: "Now I know why there are big words 'dead liar' written on the door of your shop. There is no such thing as an 'elf big sister' at all."

"No? Which bastard did this?" Leila almost lost her composure in anger, her face glowing red inside her robe, but she quickly regained her composure: "Ahem... It doesn't matter, it's usually just some commoner who doesn't understand the benefits of the underworld, or maybe some rude thug."

"Lying isn't right... Leila, you're not just using this atmosphere to lure people in so you can sell them things, are you? What kind of elf lady is this...?"

"How can you call it deception... I only sell to those with a destined connection, like you, Fairy. Besides, I'm a wandering merchant, a member of the black market. Standing openly on the street would get me chased away by soldiers, and besides, isn't this my elven form?"

"Isn't this a rip-off?"

"Ugh... barely..." Leila almost lost her composure because of what this little slime said.

"But that's how our Witch Merchant Guild works. Each person has many agents who move puppets all over the world. Since you've met me again, you're a repeat customer."

"Alright... let me see..." Lin Ming scanned Leila's robe. He wasn't interested in the more valuable magical artifacts, and there were too many items and too much clutter.

"I don't understand. Can you recommend one to me? I still want to find an antidote for the phenomenine poison. Although I'm already in the kingdom, it's inconvenient for me to move around here."

"Alright, Fairy, your needs are still the same two things, right? I have a smuggled recipe for a high-grade healing potion... You'll definitely like it..."

"Oh my god! This is great!" Lin Ming stood up excitedly.

"Just like we agreed, this is a free gift for you. Please patronize Leila's business often in the future." Leila was as generous as ever, giving it away as soon as she said she would.

"But... this must be very valuable, right? It's not right to take your things for free..." Lin Ming searched his body and then took out a small piece of slime and gave it to Leila.

"Here, this is for you."

"Ah, thank you, Fairy! This ornament is so exquisite and cute. I love it. It will definitely sell well among women."

"Don't sell it..."

But halfway through teasing it, Leila suddenly realized something was wrong. She brought the slime ball closer to examine it and even took out a magnifying glass. Her pair of glowing red eyes immediately widened in disbelief.

"Oh no, oh no, Fairy! This is a treasure! Just how perfect must the decomposition be to integrate the auras of all sorts of magical beasts into a single slime ball? This... isn't just an ordinary ornament, is it?"

"Actually, they're edible, slimy little balls. They contain nutrients from various magical beasts, right? It seems that the meat of magical beasts has a positive effect on people and is very nourishing for the body. So after what happened with the villagers, I tried making these."

Lin Ming scratched his head. He was still experimenting with this stuff, but it would probably have a very good effect on unhealthy people.

"Yes! But monster meat isn't something ordinary people can eat; most of it contains toxins and various unknown dangers... But I haven't detected any dangers in this potion. It's practically the potion with the most comprehensive effects I've ever seen..."

Leila's glowing eyes held strings of ancient characters that she was constantly analyzing. Unlike her cute and silly face, the most valuable thing about this little gadget was its inner workings.

Leila finally understood why the villagers of that abandoned village were all plump and healthy. She even envied that village in a way, since they could eat such good food.

"Is that so?" Lin Ming was a little embarrassed by the praise.

"It's sure to be a huge hit! Fairy, how many more of these can you make?!" Leila's eyes lit up, as if she had caught a whiff of business potential. She gripped Lin Ming's slimy little hand tightly, so excited she almost jumped up.

"Um... I can give you a few more if you like..." Lin Ming let his slimy little hand break off, and then two slimy little balls rolled off.

"No?! There's... there's more? Oh my god..." Leila felt as if she could see coins raining down in front of her.
