Chapter 129: Crazy Slimes (IV)

Krista Dragoon continued to cast her spell to block Zen's advancement to kiss her, there was a sudden trembling sound in the ceiling.

Zen smiled as he had waited for a long time for this moment.

"Zen, the crazy slimes have grouped up in one spot over there," Leila Dragoon who has been watching the ceiling with her ceiling the entire time shouted as she pointed at a particular spot.

Zen nodded his head as he used his movement technique to appear near them as he activated his essence flame.

With the intensity of the heat from his essence flame, the crazy slimes acid shot was completely melted before they were able to damage Zen.

Zen continued to control his essence flame smoothly as he started to force the crazy slimes into a corner.

'Success, I can't believe how well my strategy goes to be able to lure them into one spot.' Zen exclaimed inwardly as he looked at the crazy slimes who had stopped their mimic and began to panic.

They tried to scurry and scatter around but with the essence flame preventing any open spot for them to escape, they could only be fixed in their position.

Meanwhile, Krista Dragoon finally snapped out of her daze from what just happened in front of her.

She was busy casting every spell with her might to stop Zen but he suddenly ignored her and went over the boundary line for some reason.

After regaining her composure, Krista Dragoon knew she had been played by Zen. A play that even her little sister was involved in.

"Leila, did you ally with Zen to troll me on purpose?" Krista Dragoon asked Leila Dragoon with a fierce tone.

Leila Dragoon stuck her tongue out and shrugged her shoulder, "It wouldn't have been possible if Sister Krista would only use her brain for a second there."

Afterward, she walked away from the angry Krista Dragoon as she wanted to see what Zen would do next.

Her mystic eye has been unable to determine his power at all and this has made her extremely curious about Zen.

It was the first time that her mystic eye could not determine a person at all and it was exciting and intriguing as she can finally be close to a person using her feelings.

A feeling that is not affected by her mystic eye because she hasn't learned to control it properly, causing it to always be active.

"Zen, are you going to burn all these crazy slimes now?" Leila Dragoon asked coyly.

The crazy slimes began to panic, even more, when they heard Leila Dragoon's innocent tone of burning them alive.

"P-Please spare us and forgive our action." A voice suddenly echoed from the crazy slimes, shocking Krista Dragoon.

"T-The crazy slimes can talk?" Krista Dragoon held a gawking expression as she stared at the monster who tried to kill them.

"Oho, now that's an interesting little slime. What is your name?" Zen laughed as he asked for his name for being able to talk.

Although a bit surprising, it only amused Zen and temptation to make them as a pet even more.

An intelligent monster that is absolutely loyal to you would make everything so much easier compared to getting humans as subordinate.

After all, humans are known for their greed and will betray you as long as they can have more benefits from the enemy. But monsters are different. 

Monsters are known for their loyalty, similar to dogs and cats on Earth who loved their owner fully.

"W-We monsters do not have a name." The crazy slime replied after hesitating for a while.

"Then why are you targeting us when we haven't done anything to you?" Zen changed the topic since having a name or not doesn't really matter.

"We are simply ordered to attack anyone that crosses that boundary line. Thus, we didn't target you specifically but just doing what we're commanded." The crazy slime said and became pale when Zen's essence flame began agitated by his response.

Zen rubbed his chin slightly when he heard the crazy slimes mentioning about being ordered to do something.

"Do you have an owner since you said someone ordered you guys to do a task?" Zen asked as he squinted his eyes.

If the crazy slimes could not be tamed and become his pet then he would just use his essence flame to burn them alive and get it over with.

He wasn't going to waste his time any longer if that was the case.

"N-No, we are just a scavenger monster that has no owner. We worked as a group to survive." The crazy slime wanted to stay silent but when the essence flame continued to corner them further, he hurriedly answered.

"Good, you have two options now. One, become my pet and be loyal to me and I shall spare your group's life. Two, you reject to be loyal to me and become food for my essence flame." Zen showed two fingers as he explained their following options.

Leila Dragoon raised her eyebrow slightly as she was surprised when Zen was actually being serious when he talked to her secretly via mental transmission.

Meanwhile, Krista Dragoon stared at Zen with a disbelief expression. 'He wasn't kidding when he really wanted to make them as pets. W-Wait, doesn't that mean h-he would kiss me for sure?'

Krista Dragoon became frightful when she realized there was a possibility that he would go for the kiss even if it was part of his plan to lure the crazy slimes out.

Zen sensed the nervous Krista Dragoon despite not looking at her and smiled evilly.

'Seems like she is sharper than I thought. Two birds with one arrow are like this. Not only do I get the crazy slimes as a pet, but I would also get a kiss for my brilliant plan.' 

Zen cannot help but feel excited to know how everything goes so well and achieve one step closer to his goal.

"So what is your decision? My patience is very limited when I'm not negotiating with a female. I'm biased so deal with it." Zen said as he stared maliciously at the slime like a devil incarnation.
