I stared at the flask with the black goo Touya gave me. I touched it with my finger and examined it closely.

"Yes, it is slime. What do you want me to do with it? Oh, I get it! You want me to put it over my body and melt my clothing so you can enjoy the body of your destined lover. This body of mine is still pure, so please be gentle, my beloved..."

Atlantica was right behind me, panting with a lewd expression. "Ehehe, a perverted king doing lewd stuff to a little girl. Ehehe... ehehe...

Touya bumped both of our heads.

"Shut up, you two! This is a slime bodysuit. I need you to analyze it and tell me about its properties and possible applications."

"Properties? Is it just slime? They eat natural fibers such as cotton and linen, so this is why they eat clothing. You don't need to be a genius."

"No, this one is special. Let me show you how it works."

Touya removed his shirt. Aw! He looked so hot!

"Touya, you're making me blush! Are you so anxious to take my first time in this body?"

PLAF! He hit me again, but it was fun to mess with him.

Then he took the black goo from the flask and applied it to his naked chest. Immediately after, the slime transformed into an exact replica of his shirt.

Atlantica and I could not believe what we were seeing.

"Huuuuuuuuh?"

Touya closed his eyes, and the shirt transformed into a copy of his white coat. Just like the one he always wears.

"What in the world?"

He took the coat away, and turned it back into slime, which he put back into the flask. "As you can see, this is not regular slime. It started as the remnant of a slime, but after a special process, it turned into this. Is a slime bodysuit."

"Huh? You can really do something this impressive with slime? How does it work? Tell me, Touyaaaa!" I made a tantrum, worthy of my infantile form.

"You put it on you and release your magic power to transform it into any type of outfit you visualize. The slime can turn into anything you want."

"This is amazing! I'll try it right away!" I said to take the black goo from Touya and put it over my body. I transformed the slime into a small G-string. "Do you like what you see, Touya?"

He had closed his eyes already.

"Touya! Look at me, Touyaaa!"

"I knew you were going to do something perverted." He explained.

I heard something fall on the ground like a potato sack. I turned around, and just as I thought, Atlantica had fainted due to her massive nosebleed.

"Ehehe... I can die happy now..."

I transformed my G-string back into my regular clothing. "You are not fun, Touya. So tell me, how do you transform slime into this?"

"That's what I need you to find out, Doc."

I laughed. "I see! It's been a while since I've seen such an interesting challenge. Ohoohoho! And tell me, Which type of lingerie do you want me to create after I find out how this stuff is made?"

Touya started leaving. "I trust you, doc!"

Aww, party-pooper. It was funnier when he reacted nervously. At least Atlantica was happy, as she was squirming in pleasure.

"Wait, Touya! Where did you get this stuff?"

He sighed. "Kagenou. He invented them, back in his world."

"Oh, that's right! When are you going to introduce me to Kagenou-kun? I understand that he is a reincarnation from your old world too, right? That's so cool. I have so many things I want to ask. Do you think you can bring him to Babylon so he can show me how the slime suits are made? I can offer him lots of things in exchange for that!"

"Kagenou is dangerous. Besides, I already gave him a smartphone in exchange for a sample of the slime suit."

Such a party-pooper! I may escape to the surface to meet this Kagenou-kun. But before I do that, I have to find out how in the world these slime suits work. I could use my null spell, 'analyze' to find out, but that would take the fun out of it. So, let's go!

"I guess we should call Flora to do the chemical analysis. What do you think, Tica? I guess he will be out of combat for a while."

We called Flora and started to analyze the slime. That's when we felt something falling right over Babylon.

"Hey, Babylon is not supposed to be above the clouds?" asked Atlantica.

She was right—what was going on here? I felt that the multiple barriers that protected Babylon and kept it invisible were removed one by one. Layer by layer. Not breaking them completely, just enough for an intruder to enter.

Rosetta, who was in the workshop, sent her attack drones.

Then, he entered. A young boy in a long black trench coat.

Rosetta's drones were destroyed in the blink of an eye. Who the hell was this guy. I pulled out my own smartphone and was about to dial Touya, when I realized that this sword was made of the same goo that I was studying.

"Hey!" I called him.

He looked at me. The hood covered his whole face, all that was visible were two red orbs floating in darkness.

"Are you Kagenou-kun by any chance?"

The black suit transformed it into what looked like a school uniform. "Do you know me?"

"Touya has told me a lot about you!"

"Oh, Touya knows this place?" asked him.

"This place is Touya's. I built it myself, and then I gave it to Touya. As a matter of fact, I kept Babylon hidden for over five thousand years to prevent anyone but Touya from finding it. How did you find this place?"

"I felt a huge amount of magic power over my head, and it got my attention. So I jumped to get here. So, who are you, anyone?"

"I am Touya's lover! Doctor Regina Babylon!"

I hurried to introduce myself, but I was really nervous on the inside. This man wasn't normal. Not only could he find Babylon, but he managed to break in. All men from Touya's world are this powerful?

"Nine wives and a lover? Touya is a true protagonist."

"Protagonist?"

After that, we decided to have tea. The other gynoids wanted to call Touya, but I knew that he didn't want me to meet Kagenou, so I convinced them to keep this quiet. I really needed to get to know him. We talked a lot, he was bunkers, but my kind of bunkers.

"So what was your goal in your other life, Kagenou-kun?" I asked.

"Power. I needed power to survive a nuclear bomb."

"What's a nuclear bomb?"

He told me everything he knew about the nuclear bomb. Since atomic theory, what happens when you break an atom; and the devastating effects of radiation,.

"So are you telling me that thing was an actual weapon in your old world?"

"Lots of people consider it the definitive weapon. If someone throws a nuclear bomb, is game over. You are going to get vaporized into oblivion."

"You know a lot about atomic bombs."

"Of course! My life goal was to survive a nuclear explosion, so you have to know your enemy."

I laughed; I liked this dude. In the end, I made him go to the same place he came from; I didn't want Touya to know I spoke with Kagenou despite his warning. But let's be honest: if you are forbidden to do something, won't you want to do it more?
