Book 10: Chapter 9: The Night Before the Advancement Examination

A certain sage went to the forest alone.

The receptionist lady of the adventurers guild had secretly tipped him that they would subjugate slimes for tomorrows advancement examination.

The sage wanted his family to gain the general knowledge of the masses, so they had been doing the commissions seriously. Because of this, they earned the favor of the guild members, who then decided to make the advancement examination easier for them.

Having it easy was pretty good, but it might also backfire on them. His family might become self-conceited and might even look down on adventurers.

And so, the sage thought of an idea.

About the slime that they would fight tomorrow

What if his family lost against them?

Perhaps, he could teach them the lesson that they should never lower their guards, no matter who the opponent was.

And so, he came here with that thought.

He activated his wide-range mana detection.

Alright, Johann isnt here yet.

The receptionist lady told him that Yohann, a B-rank adventurer, would be the proctor during tomorrows exam.

Johanns mana was headed towards this forest, but he was still far away.

Slime-chan~, come out~

The sage searched for the slimes.

Oh, there you are.

He easily discovered five slimes.

And then

Tame!

Kyupi!?

He didnt even bother weakening them by afflicting damage; he just casted the Tame spell head on.

It was the Tame spell of the worlds strongest sage.

There was no way slimes, such weak monsters, could Resist.

Did it work?

Kyupi.

Kyupipi~!

Kyu Kyu Pi~!

Kyupi!

Kyu Pi

The five slimes danced around the sage.

They were happy that they have a master now.

It was hard to read their expressions, but they were quite adorable.

The sage felt warm and fluffy because of them.

Oopsie, Johann should be here soon.

The B-rank adventurers mana was approaching.

I want you guys to let yourselves be captured by another adventurer.

KyupI!?

Kyupipi?

Kyu, Kyu.

The slimes sounded extremely sad.

S-Sorry. Its only for a while, of course. Well meet again tomorrow.

The Sage started releasing his mana.

That mana started forming snow white letters on the palm of his hand.

It was Divine Characters the characters used by the deities of this world.

They formed a magical circle over the heads of the slimes.

When the magical circle was completed, rays of light stretched towards the slime. The bodies of the slime struck by those rays started to glow.

Halts Divine Protection just kidding.

The sage muttered under his breath.

He had no way of knowing that he did indeed bestow [Halts Divine Protection] to these slimes this time.

And as a result

<Physical Damage (Void)>

<Magic Resistance (Max)>

<Anomalous Condition <Void>

<Automatic Stamina Recovery (Max)>

<Automatic Mana Recovery (Max)>

<Recovery Speed Up (Max)>

<Extreme Speed>

<Indomitability>

<Morph>

<Infinite Storage>

I want them to have these the sage bestowed all that he wished they had as skills.

For Divine Protection, one cannot create something that was above oneselfs existence. Thus, even if these slimes received his divine protection, they could not win against the sage that bestowed it.

However, because the sage was the strongest person in the entire world, they evolved into monsters corresponding to the sages power.

And so, this marked the birth of the strongest slimes that even the previous generations of demon kings could never defeat.

Alright, see you tomorrow!

Kyupipi!! (All slimes)

Johann came right after, so the sage used his teleportation magic to leave that place.

Immediately after that

Oh, found yah, slimes!

Kyupi!

Johann found 5 slimes.

Those slimes didnt even resist, as if saying hurry up and capture us.
