That Time I Got Reencarnated as a Demon Lord (English)

10 - I Need to Relax

We continued our journey being pulled by the tigers, with Gobuta and the goblina riding a Blade Tiger at our side. According to the kobolds, the trip had been reduced by a few days because of the speed at which the tigers were moving, but unfortunately for me, they were still slow. Tigers could head-on Stormfang Wolves in speed, but not with my Stormstar Wolf mimicry.

Well, it doesn't matter so much. So Gobuta can enjoy the company of the red-haired goblina. Tell me, am I good or not good with my subordinates?

<< ... >>

Again, I prefer not to discuss emotions with you, Sage.

I turned my eyes to Gobuta, who was talking to the red-haired goblina. Even though I'm happy for him, this guy, getting a girlfriend before his own boss... I think I'll have some really fun extra training with him when we get back to the village. But, of course, he can enjoy it as much as he wants for now.

Hahahahaha Just wait, Gobuta-kun~...

<< ... >>

I will not... discuss this matter with you.

"Hey, tell me... what is this 'Goblin Kingdom' thing you were talking about when you first appeared?"

I turned in the direction the voice was coming from, looking toward the sharp-tongued goblina that sat beside me. Of course, [Magicle Perception] and [Clairvoyance] had already warned me of her approach, so I wasn't surprised when she sat down next to me, although that was a little surprising in itself.

"Why should I tell you anything about this?"

"Oh~, come on! Is this how you're going to treat me?!" She stared at me like she was offended for a few seconds before she seemed to just give up. "Haah~, that's why it's not possible to have a civil conversation with a wild slime like you."

"Wow! Say the damn thing that only offends others every five words!?"

"Why, you humble slime! Don't you understand that idiots like you are too silly to be paid more? Fool! Thank me for putting me down to talk to someone like you!!!"

I know I don't have veins in this slime body of mine, but if I did, I'd have a big vein on my forehead pulsing right now. For a second, I really wanted to use my skills and finish off this goblina, but the last thing I needed right now was for the other goblins to hate me. Furthermore...

Sage! What is it I feel coming from her?

<<Response. One of the factors of the Unique Skill [Unholy] allows the user to detect negative emotions that stain the soul of those close to the user.>>

Well, that explains a lot. So if I had to say what emotion she's feeling, I'd say it's...

"Hey, why do you want to know so much about the goblin kingdom I want to found?"

"Oh~, did the little one regret not telling the big me about it?"

Seriously, this girl could contain a bit of debauchery when talking to someone, couldn't she? Doesn't she know how to respect her elders? Well, I was just born a slime, but I'm a lot older than her if I count my years as a human, okay? Well, at least we'd be the same age... I think...

"Well, if there's no reason for you to want to know, then I'll keep quiet."

She and I stared at each other for a few seconds as if we were in a contest over who would blink first and whoever blinked first would lose. Still, this was the wrong game for her to choose and it's why... I DON'T HAVE EYES!!! No eyes, no blinking! Take that you petulant little girl!!! ETERNAL FACE!!!
