Chapter 221-Black Slime
After squeezing Flamigo's treasure, he left the place immediately and went to his space world to investigate the box.
His companions are practicing, and his subordinates are doing their jobs. His clones are moving, and he had many times for himself.
He appeared in a secret location where not even his companion knew. He created this place so that he can focus and not be distracted.
This place was 100 times heavier than the spirit world's gravity and the time here has the same ratio as the tower of trials.
He sat on the ground and took out the box and made it float in front of him.
"System what is the origin of the box and what is its function?"
He asked the system as he is curious about it.
[400,000 sin points are required for the system to answer your question]
The system replied and it made Dave angry.
"Fvck you, you always like to snatch my hard-earned points"
[No, this information is very useful and important so it is a good exchange]
Dave tried to negotiate to lower the price but the system is not easy to persuade so he won't have a choice but to spend 400,000 for the information.
"If it's not useful, be prepared to suffer my wrath"
His ancestral eyes are not enough to know and appraise the box so he doesn't have a choice but to ask for the system's help.
[Analyzing the box….]
[ It would take a minute]
...
....
[Ding! The system appraised the item]
-----------
Item: Sealing Box
Age: ?????
Rarity: ????
Info: A black slime is sealed inside and the box
-----------
[Note to the host, to unlock the box, you need to split some of your soul and feed to the box]
The system said and the information stunned Dave.
"A slime?"
"Holy shit, is that Rimuru?"
"Or is the slime is a super-duper monster that can be my pet?"
"Normally in some novels, slime is the weakest creature, but they have the highest potential of all"
Dave cannot contain his excitement, but the process is a bit hurtful. Splitting his soul is easy for him and it can weaken him, but he can recover it in time but the pain he will feel is tremendous.
The soul is the core of every life form and when your soul is destroyed, you will die and never have a chance to reincarnate ever again.
Just a single damage to the soul is deeply chilling so that even he rarely tries to split his soul when cloning.
He tapped the box and commanded the system.
"Proceed"
[Processing….]
[Splitting a small part of the host's soul]
[...]
"Arghh"
Dave shouted in pain, and he cursed.
"You better be a good treasure as I hate to feel this kind of pain again."
Even a demon like him can feel so much pain but he is strong enough to maintain his consciousness.
After 5 minutes…
[Completed]
[The system split a part of the host's soul into the box]
[The system transferred the soul to the item]
[The soul has been absorbed by the box]
[Synchronization is complete]
Dave heard a lot of notifications then the box suddenly shines.
Suddenly, a black small slime that is large as a fist appeared in front of him while floating in the air.
Dave was stunned as he felt that he was connected to it.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for acquiring an innate treasure-Ultimate Slime]
[Ultimate slime is a heavenly weapon and has many functions]
[The slime will act based on the command of the host as it is connected to the host's soul]
[The slime can also do things automatically if you commanded it]
[The slime's strength is based on the host's power]
The system said and it shocked Dave when he heard its functions.
"So it will follow my instructions?"
He waved his hand, and the slime followed the direction of his hand.
He tried to command it and transform it into a sword and the slime transformed into a black sword.
He commanded the slime to defend him if there is an incoming attack then he created a laser beam to hit himself, but the slime automatically becomes a shield and absorbs the attack.
He was amazed at its function, so he explores more about it.
He discovered that the slime could receive 70% of his power until it stopped working.
The slime is indestructible and when it reaches the limit of what power it can receive, it will just become a box again.
For the slime to work again, it will automatically absorb the damage and heal automatically but it will take a long time.
After seeing the slime's functions, he asked the system.
"System, can I make the slime absorb my weapons so that its power becomes stronger?"
[Yes]
Dave smiles and takes out his black sword, which he almost forgot to use because he always fights using his bare hands and most of his enemies are not worthy of him to use it on them.
The black sword is also an innate treasure that is connected to him, and it will get stronger as he levels up.
He let the slime absorb the sword and the sword didn't resist as he even felt that it was happy.
The slime successfully absorbs it and the system said that he can retrieve it anytime.
The slime's power when it was transformed into a weapon is weaker so letting it absorb the sword makes its power stronger only if it is in sword form.
The slime is top-tier when it comes to defense as it will automatically activate and protect him if he was attacked without him knowing.
Of course, if he lets it absorb other weapons like the axe, the axe form of the slime will get stronger.
He had many treasures but they are weaker than his sword, so he didn't make the slime absorb them.
The slime has so much function so he decided to let the slime roam around his body, and no one would expect the black slime to be a dangerous weapon.
