Slime Cultivation Game

More than three natural hours had passed since they returned to the tent. Kallen hadn't said a word, but just kept checking and assembling her equipment.

From checking the gunpowder, to wiping the rifling, to adjusting the air valve...he did it over and over again.

Pull out the bullets one by one and put them back in one by one.

Use rosin to wipe the mechanical equipment you carry with you.

The temperature in the entire tent seemed to drop by two degrees, making the mechanical bird feel the chill.

But this was not what frightened Him the most.

What frightened him the most was Kallen's expression.

It was an expression of extreme calmness, as if everything happening around him had nothing to do with him.

Nuonuo had never seen Karin like this before, it was as if she had become a different person.

"Why... can't it fit in? It's already here, why can't it fit in?!"

Kallen held the air gun and loaded bullets into the chamber.

As a machinist working with steam and truth, the most important gift is a steady hand.

But now, Kallen's originally extremely stable hands were shaking constantly, and the brass bullet on her fingertips was shaking back and forth. It was clearly at the muzzle, but it couldn't be stuffed into the barrel.

So she raced and raced, until -

"Why can't I put it in? Why are my hands shaking?!"

With a "bang".

Kallen threw the air gun to the ground beside her with a loud bang.

The mechanical bird was startled and quickly flew up and circled in the air.

Kallen grabbed her red hair, buried her head between her legs, and kept whispering, "Why, why! Why can't it fit in..."

"Nono! Nono!"

The mechanical bird circled twice in the air before slowly landing next to Kallen.

It cautiously poked its head forward:

"Nono! Nono! Kallen, are you okay?"

There was a long silence in response.

It was not until the stupid bird was worried that something had happened to Kallen that the female mechanic raised her head and smiled: "It's okay, don't worry, Nono, I'm fine."

"Really, I'm really fine, Nono, really."

Her smile was as stiff as a puppet, causing even the mechanical creature Nono to experience the uncanny valley effect.

Kallen stood up and slowly picked up the air gun: "I'm sorry, Nono, I was just a little irritated. I'm sorry, it's okay now."

Then, she emptied the bullets from the air gun again, opened the chamber again, and stuffed the bullets in one by one again.

It was as if nothing had happened.

"..." The mechanical bird tilted its head and flew out of the tent.

Although he is a mechanical creation, he is not a fool and can tell that something is wrong with his master.

He had to find Leo and find out what happened. "Really? Kallen is like this."

Listening to Nuonuo's story, Leo lowered his head with a sigh: "I understand, you go back first, I will think of a way."

"Nono! Leo, are you two having a quarrel?" The mechanical bird tilted its head: "Also, who is this woman? Why have I never seen her before?"

"Okay, you go back first. I can't explain these things to you clearly." Leo waved his hand irritably and threw the mechanical bird out of the tent.

"Nono! What's wrong with you two? Why are you getting weirder than the other!"

Is it strange? Yes, I want to know why Karen has become so strange...

You clearly love me, but you insist on leaving.

in the end……

"Master...I..."

Shikoti sat next to Leo, feeling a little at a loss as to what to do.

More than three natural hours had passed since Miss Karen left the tent.

Seeing Kallen leave, she felt secretly happy, thinking that no one would snatch her master away from her anymore.

But when she saw Leo, who was silent and looked like he had lost his soul, Miss Shikoti realized that she might have done something wrong.

Miss Slime cannot accurately understand human emotions. But she can feel that Leo is very sad.

This kind of sadness was something Shikoti had never felt from Leo before.

As a result, her chest also felt blocked.

"Shikoti, why did you...jump out..."

Leo covered his face, kept scratching his hair, and muttered to himself.

Reason told him that he should not blame Miss Slime, as it was not her fault.

She has no human morality or sense of right and wrong, and she must have jumped out because of her possessive instinct.

However, the emotional pain made him feel torn.

If Shikoti hadn't jumped out, if things could have been delayed for a while, if he hadn't told Kallen that Shikoti was his woman, then would there be another possibility?

Will he and Kallen have another future?

I don’t know, I really don’t know.

He is not a saint, nor is he a genius with great wisdom. He cannot judge which option will bring a better answer.

But he knew that time could not be reversed, he had made a choice and therefore had to pay the price.

“I…” Shikoti clenched her fists.

"Is this the scene you wanted to see? Shikoti."

"No...no..." Shikoti hung her head in grievance, feeling a stuffy feeling in her chest.

She didn't know why she had to jump out, but she just wanted to jump out.

She wanted the master to acknowledge her existence in front of Karin, as if this would prove that she was the most important person to the master.

But she had no idea what was going to happen next.

Shikoti couldn't understand why that bad woman would leave her master just because of her existence...

Although Shikoti would be jealous and angry because Leo was close to other women, she never thought of leaving Leo.

As long as the owner is happy, isn't that enough?

"Why did Kallen leave... Why couldn't she accept me? She has the same mucus flowing in her body as me."

"Because she is a human..." Leo raised his head, his eyes full of bloodshot: "Shikoti, you can't understand human self-esteem and morality... You are just an ignorant baby. You can understand many things, but you can't really understand feelings."

"I took it for granted. I thought everything was too simple. I was wrong..."

"Shikoti, this is not your fault, it's my fault."

“Master…” Seeing Leo like this, Shikoti felt her chest getting tighter, and crystal liquid swirled in her eyes: “Master, then…then you should give up on me. I, I can actually do anything. I don’t need to be your lover, I can just be your slave.”

"If this can make the master feel better, Shikoti is willing to do anything."

"Really, as long as, as long as I can stay by my master's side, Shikoti will be satisfied..."

As she spoke, Miss Slime lay on Leo's shoulder, and a few drops of crystal liquid soaked his chest.

"You are crying, Shikoti..."

"Crying?" Shikoti wiped the corners of his eyes: "Is this what it feels like to cry? But Master, why should I cry... Can slime cry too?"

"..." Leo gently wiped the corners of Miss Slime's eyes and sighed: "Can you really do it? Can you really be satisfied just by looking at me?"

"I..." Faced with this question, Miss Slime remained silent.

That's right, in order to make Leo happy and to make Leo happy, she is willing to give up herself, but... this is not what she wants.

What she wanted was to be able to cry with her master, laugh with him, kill with him, have fun with him, and do together...what lovers should do.

To use the words of the bad women she devoured, this idea should be "love".

At this moment, the ignorant Miss Slime longed for love for the first time.

Get complete love.

That's right, she didn't want to give up Leo, she wanted to possess Leo.

But that would make Leo sad, and would make Leo lose Kallen. So, Shikoti shook her head, suppressed her feelings, and forced a smile: "Master, I can do it, really, I just need to be by your side, to look at you, that's enough, as long as -"

"Stop talking." Leo interrupted Shikoti. He slowly raised his head with a determined look in his eyes: "Either don't do it, or do it completely."

"I won't give up on you, Shikoti. I won't lose you."

"I told you, you are the most important person to me."

"But...but..." Shikoti put her little hand on Leo's left chest, tears spreading from the corners of her eyes to her chin: "I can feel, Master, you are in pain, very painful."

"Is it okay like this? Is it really okay to lose Miss Karen, Master?"

"I don't want you to suffer, Master. So, I really can. Don't worry about Shikoti, Master..."

"Okay, stop talking. I won't give up on you." Leo took a deep breath and took Miss Slime into his arms: "I won't give up on Karen either."

"I won't let go of either of you."

If Karin doesn't like me, then so be it. A forced melon is not sweet.

But that is not the case now.

Even a love novice like Leo could tell that Kallen liked him.

The girl's choked voice, her tearful face that dared not turn her head away, and her determination to die for herself all proved this point.

The crisis of trust between the two should have been resolved with yesterday's confession.

Therefore, her departure now was only due to the constraints brought by her self-esteem and her identity as a princess.

In the final analysis, it is the same as Miss Slime, possessiveness is at work, and she just wants to have it all to herself.

If that’s the case, why should Leo let go?

Leo knew that it was despicable for him to have such thoughts. If he were in his original world, he would have been hung on the pillar of shame by now.

But he had to do it, otherwise he would regret it for the rest of his life.

We have already come to this sick world, and our hands are already stained with countless blood. At this point, how can we still be moral role models?

Besides, he never thought of himself as a good person, nor did he think of himself as a gentle person.

He didn't hesitate when killing people, let alone now?

Whatever he wants, he must work hard to get.

Either don’t do it or never do it.

He will never give up the love of Shikoti, the love of Kallen, or even the love of any other woman he meets in the future.

This is his greed, this is his selfishness.

He wanted more than just love, he wanted wealth, he wanted power, he wanted to be on equal footing with the ladies, he wanted to be able to truly live freely in this world, not fearing anyone's ability.

"So, I shouldn't waste my time here anymore." Thinking of this, Leo shook his head and stood up.

"Master...you, why are you laughing?"

"Because I figured out one thing." Leo rubbed her head: "Before today, we had no desires of our own, no longing to go somewhere, no goals to act on, everything was just for the sake of living."

"But such a life is too boring."

"From today on, I will fight for everything I want, women, power, money. Since I have come to this world, I cannot waste this opportunity."

Shikoti looked at Leo with a confused look. She didn't understand what her master meant. But she just felt that the master in front of her was very different from the beginning.

Leo stretched and said, "Okay, Shikoti, get ready to get along well with Kallen."

"Ah? Master, what do you mean?"
