Gensokyo, I am a slime, everyone loves me.

"Excuse me."

Lingxian nodded, and just as she walked into the room, she suddenly froze as if she realized something.

"The master will come tomorrow?"

"Well, probably tomorrow night."

"Master, what's the matter with her coming?"

"Fight me."

Bai Luo said naturally.

Ling Xian was stunned. She rubbed her ears vigorously and asked again, "Master Bai, what did you say the master came to do?"

"Come and fight me."

Bai Luo answered again, with a hint of doubt in his eyes. He didn't understand why Ling Xian asked twice.

Ling Xian couldn't hold it in any longer. She quickly asked, "Why did you want to fight with the master, Master Bai?"

The struggle between the earthlings and the moonlings?

Impossible, the master and the princess had already left the Moon City.

A power struggle between Eien-tei and Yakumo-residence?

This is also impossible.

If this is true, it should be Lord Zi who should fight against the master, why would it be Young Master Bai's turn?

Is it possible...

Lingxian's brain was working rapidly, and a possibility emerged, which was the only possibility.

All of this is Lord Zi's conspiracy.

Even if the master wins, he is still bullying the weak.

If he loses, wouldn't it mean that he can't even beat the young master of the Yakumo residence?

and so!

Regardless of whether the duel is won or lost, it will not benefit the master in any way.

Suddenly, Lingxian felt that she was extremely smart and any conspiracy or trick could not escape her.

As the master's disciple, Lingxian felt it necessary to stop all this. Moreover, judging from Master Bai's attitude just now, he obviously didn't know that he was also a pawn in Lord Zi's hands.

The master will show no mercy, and she doesn't want Young Master Bai to get hurt.

"Master Bai, I have something..."

Lingxian's voice suddenly stopped, and she found that Bai Luo had left the room at some point.

……

at the same time.

Bai Luo had returned to his room. Sitting on the bed, he looked at the 100% on his evolution value, feeling an indescribable feeling in his heart.

Because the cells and soul are almost collapsed, repair and evolution are divided into two stages.

This time, it is the second half of the evolution. Once successful, he will be officially promoted to the Demon King.

Bai Luo pursed his lips and remained silent for a long time before finally giving the order:

"Great Sage, let's begin."

[Understood. All conditions have been met. From now on, you will advance to Demon King.]

The great sage responded.

As the great sage finished speaking, Bai Luo suddenly felt dizzy.

As he transformed into his original form, his body swayed and he fell down weakly.

At the moment when he was about to fall to the ground, a gap suddenly opened and caught Bai Luo, then opened again just above the bed and gently placed Bai Luo on the pillow.

……

nothingness.

Everything around me is illusory.

Bai Luo was conscious, but he could hear nothing, see nothing, and feel nothing.

The past seemed so long, yet it seemed like only a moment.

When his vision refocused, he opened his eyes and looked around, his pupils shrinking slightly.

This is an orphanage.

The familiar yet unfamiliar scene made Bai Luo dazed, with some scattered fragments flashing through his mind.

Sitting in the corner was a little boy, so thin that he looked like he would fall down with a gust of wind. His eyes were dull and his expression was confused. He looked lifeless and seemed to have no interest in the outside world.

Bai Luo's lips tightened.

The memory gradually became clear - that was him, the original him.

He should have had a wonderful childhood with loving parents and a sister, but unfortunately, everything changed drastically overnight.

Everyone died.

Can……

He didn't die, he just lost a hand.

A tooth mark was left on Bai Luo's tightly pursed lower lip.

Although I'm not dead, what's the difference between this and being dead?

Bai Luo wanted to touch the little boy's head to comfort his former self, but when he stretched out his hand, he only touched the air.

[Notice. This is the memory corridor. You are not real.]

The great sage reminded.

Bai Luo retracted his arm and hummed a ballad softly. The song was gentle and melodious, with a hint of warmth, which seemed to be able to dispel the coldness deep in his heart.

The little boy didn't react at all. Just as the great sage said, Bai Luo didn't belong here and didn't exist.

But he didn't care and continued humming.

Suddenly, the little boy looked up as if he heard something and noticed it.

Seeing that he seemed to have discovered him, Bai Luo stopped the melody and moved his lips, but before he could open his mouth, the world suddenly changed.

This is a forgotten city.

Desolate ruins, broken limbs, and blood-stained ground, as if the end of the world has come.

The boy dodged monsters all the way, fleeing with a box of food until he returned to his "home" and collapsed to the ground exhausted.

Listening to the roar outside gradually fading away, he panted and breathed a sigh of relief.

The boy sat up again and opened the box with a little anticipation. Seeing that it was full of various canned fruits, he immediately smiled with joy, opened a can and started to gobble it up.

After eating, he wiped his mouth, lay on the cold floor, and looked at the leaden sky, his nose feeling sore.

The boy sat by the wall, hugged his feet, buried his face in his knees, and sobbed uncontrollably. He didn't understand what he had done wrong and why he had to suffer such a thing.

Bai Luo stood quietly by, watching the scene. After a long moment, he opened his lips slightly and uttered three words:

"why?"

The voice was very soft, as if he was talking to himself, or as if he was asking a question to the world, or perhaps asking a great sage.

But there was no reply.

However, no answers are needed.

He simply felt it was strange.

Bai Luo lowered his eyes, and when he looked up again, the confusion on his face faded away, replaced by a smile.

"Great Sage, you will always stay with me, right?"

[Yes, the Great Sage will always be with Bai Luo]

As the great sage answered affirmatively, Bai Luo fell into darkness again.

When he opened his eyes again, he was still surrounded by the ruins, but the difference was that he had turned into a boy and returned to his former self.

"Boom...!"

The wall collapsed, and the huge, ferocious-looking spider crawled out again.

This time, Bai Luo did not feel any fear.

Even if his ability disappears and his strength returns to its original state, it is enough for him to know that the great sage is protecting him.

Bai Luo stood up and walked forward slowly——

"Great Sage, this time, let us attack together."

【it is good】

Chapter 26: Evolution is successful, Demon King Slime.

As soon as the sky was gray and light began to rise, Lingxian climbed out of bed. She was used to getting up early, and at this time of year, she would hurriedly have breakfast and then drink today's potion.

Lingxian opened the door and came into the living room.

It was pitch black and deserted. I guess Young Master Bai hasn't gotten up yet.

Perhaps because she didn't need to test any medicine today or in the future, Lingxian was in a particularly good mood. She quickly prepared breakfast, brought out a portion, and carefully delivered it to the door of the room as if it were her own princess.

"Dong dong dong..."

She knocked on the door gently and waited for a moment, but there was no movement in the room.

"Master Bai, are you up?"

Lingxian asked softly, but still got no response, so she had to push the door open.

Young Master Bai had specifically instructed her to wake him up early the next day.

As you walk into the room, a sea of blue comes into view.

The floor, walls, curtains, and even the bed covers and pillows are all blue.

Despite this, due to the use of different color differences, it does not feel monotonous, but rather makes people's eyes bright.

Lingxian did not see Young Master Bai, but only found a blue ball on the pillow.

Remembering that her master had once explained the slime race, Lingxian quickly guessed that the sphere was Young Master Bai.

"Master Bai, breakfast is ready."

Lingxian pushed the slime but still got no response. Just when she was feeling depressed, she suddenly realized something was wrong.

She quickly investigated and discovered that the energy in his body was extremely unstable, like a magma bomb about to explode.

The hair on Lingxian Rabbit's ears stood up instantly.

She didn't care about anything else, dropped the milk and toast in her hands, and wanted to pick up Young Master Bai and rush to Yongyuan Pavilion.

However, as soon as her hand touched the blue sphere, it burst out with a dazzling white light, which not only shook her hand away, but also formed a light shield to isolate her from the outside world.

Seeing this scene, although Lingxian didn't understand the reason, she became more and more anxious.

Seeing that the energy in Master Bai's body was becoming increasingly unstable, she decisively picked up the pillow and the slime together.

But before she left the room, she was surprised to find that the energy in the other person's body had calmed down and was no longer agitated, as if it had reached some critical point.

The next moment, all the energy seemed to be squeezed by some force and began to condense madly, compressing, compressing, and compressing again!

The light shield that isolated Bai Luo disappeared.

The slime was suspended in the air, its body flashing with white light, and a terrifying strong wave emanated from it.

Lingxian's rabbit ears stood upright and her fur was completely blown away.
