Girl Hero: Revenge on Goblins!
Chapter 136: D49. Honey Night Bright

Chapter 136: D49. Honey Night Bright

The time was nearing Dawn Break.

The moisture in the forest condensed due to the temperature change, enshrouding it in white mist. The darkness of the night gently faded like a light veil being lifted, half-lit and unclear.

A few drops of dew had condensed on the tips of the girl’s hair and the tip of her nose, the morning chill causing her delicate eyebrows to furrow slightly.

The forest, silenced by the Hero’s rampage the previous night, slowly came to life again with the chirping of birds in the dim light.

The first ray of dawn pierced through the leaves, tinting the mist with color.

——The sun had risen.

[Hero uses Skill: Vitality (D2+30, Magic Power Overdraft -50, 50+Awakening)]

2d50+30=d50(11)+d50(36)+30=77

Curled up under the tree among the fallen leaves, the Hero slightly furrowed her brow at the chill penetrating her skin and the distinctly unsoft feeling of her makeshift bed, then opened her eyes.

Although her Constitution had almost reached a point of being unbothered by the cold or heat, and she herself wasn’t picky about sleeping arrangements, that didn’t mean she had become a tin person who felt nothing.

Her skin was still soft; wearing too much would feel hot, too little, and she would feel cold. Yet, these sensations wouldn’t affect her physical activities, nor would they cause her any sickness.

Perhaps if she became even stronger, those sensations might weaken, but for now, the Hero just uncomfortably opened her eyes.

’Indeed... because I overused Magic Power, so—’

Her head was still shrouded in a vague, dull pain; recalling her actions from yesterday, a late sense of tension and regret began to creep into her heart.

Even she knew that passing out in a forest in the wild was not at all safe.

Even if a Familiar was present to protect her—

...Huh?

She blinked her Emerald Eyes in confusion.

[What does the Hero see?]

1. Two Gleaming Scale Serpents

2. Herself

3. Two Gleaming Scale Serpents and herself♛

4. Slime

5. 1

6. 2

7. 3

8. 4

9. An unfamiliar girl

10. Critical Success/Extreme Failure

D10=d10(3)=3

And she did not know that one of her predecessors, due to fighting with other Magic Creatures and causing an explosion, plunged the entire Kingdom into darkness.

The Slime King was shaking its shimmering blue body.

[Slime King uses Splitting Mimic]

[Slime King’s Mimicry (Wisdom Species +10, Spellcasters +10)]

D80+20=d80(34)+20=54

The round Slime King transformed into a flat puddle, and then, the liquid body rose, shaping into the form of the Hero and the Gleaming Scale Serpent above.

Although the mimicry was exquisitely detailed, even replicating the Hero’s intricate details, the deep blue and transparent body composition fully exposed its Identity.

And this blue, Transparent "she" was staring at herself somewhat blankly.

The girl woke up under the light of the dawn, unaware of the scene in the Slime King’s eyes.

’...Is this, a Slime?’

Realizing the true nature of the other, the Hero made a peculiar face.

Although it was blue and Transparent, having a third-person perspective of her original form was still unusual... and all this in a forest on the outskirts.

Her cheeks flushed slightly, her lips parted, but no sound came out.

’What happened last night?’ The Hero mouthed, trying to inquire, then helplessly massaged her throat.

She had forgotten again; she couldn’t speak, and she didn’t bring her notebook and Feather Pen... and Slimes probably couldn’t read either, right?

However, the empathetic Slime King seemed to perceive the Hero’s confusion, fluidly transforming its body, vividly mimicking how it came here, and how the Gleaming Scale Serpent had guarded her.

No, your performance isn’t an issue, but can’t you let me wear my clothes for the act?

And why does this big Slime act so familiar with me?

The Hero, stifling her inward embarrassment, turned her head and cast a questioning look towards the Gleaming Scale Serpent beside her, but the serpent seemed equally confounded.

Watching this, the Slime King blinked its transparent Blue Eyes.

The bond between Humankind and Magic Creatures is truly fascinating.

[Can the Slime King speak? (If not, blows bubbles)]

1. Yes

2. No♛

D2=d2(2)=2

"Pururulu—"

After finishing its act, the Slime King vibrated what approximated human vocal folds.

But as expected, it couldn’t replicate the organs fully and ended up blowing bubbles, allowing the Magic Element to dissipate into the air.

[The Hero’s understanding]

D100=d100(43)=43

[The Slime King wants to—]

1. The Hero’s saliva

2. Just had a great chat, there’s a gift

3. See the world of Humankind

4. Come to my house!

5. 1

6. 2

7. Breed intelligent offspring (Hero gifts a gemstone)

8. Go on a trip

9. Have children with the Hero(?)♛

10. Critical Success/Extreme Failure

D10=d10(9)=9

→☆→☆→☆→✧←★←★←★←

Anyway, after the Slime King’s performance, the Hero also understood what had happened last night.

"Pururulu—"

"Ssssss—"

And one must say, although the Slime King only copied the Hero’s appearance, it indeed captured some human essence on a certain level.

Even the nonverbal Hero, by observing its expressions, movements, and tone, more or less understood what it was trying to communicate.

It could also be due to her unique sensibilities since normally Humankind couldn’t read information from Magic Element.

But with the translation help from the Gleaming Scale Serpent on the side, the interaction between the Hero and the Slime was orderly, she occasionally nodded in response and gestured back with her hands.

’It says, Queen, you have a very nice scent on you.’

’It’s the first time it has seen a human like you.’

’So, it wants to be with you—’

With me what?
