NOVEL NEXT Chapter 60 RIP 4th wall
I'm walking through town. Everything is going along nicely, however, everyone is gone. I don’t see anyone, even on this usually busy street.
Then, out of nowhere, a wild busty onee-san attacks!
Onee-san- “Ara ara~~”
*Gunshot!*
*Shatter!*
Rimuru- “Don’t you fucking Ara ara me!”
I jump up from my sitting position, shouting at the top of my lungs.
(A/N: A heads up, I don’t have anything against busty Ara ara Onee-sans, this is just comedy.)
Mikoto- “Rimuru!?”
Mikoto looks over at me in shock, wondering what just happened in my illusion.
Yes, illusion. I remember now, I was doing that damn training again. God, I'm gonna kill whoever made thought up of that…
… Oh wait…
Rimuru- “Nothing, don’t mind it.”
Mikoto sighs while shaking her head, and stretches out her arms to me. Acting on habit, I jump towards her and transform into my slime form, landing right in her arms.
She’s gotten way less embarrassed at holding me like this.
*Jingle!*
Her bracelet rattles a bit from the impact. I look at it while smiling a bit internally. She rarely takes it off. I'm glad. Though I'm sure it’s more because it’s the only gekota object here in this world than anything else…
Rimuru- “Wanna grab something to eat?”
Mikoto- “Mmm.”
She nods in agreement.
We both exit the ‘Illusion Room’ as I call it, with me in Mikoto’s arms. It’s a side room I made in our house that has the illusion runes all written down in it so I don’t have to write a new set every day.
Shizu- ‘Hurry up! Stop acting so lovey-dovey already!’
Mikoto- “W-we’re not acting lovey-dovey! Mou…”
Mikoto pouts as a shade of red slightly spreads across her cheeks.
Rimuru- “Couldn’t you just get food outside?”
Shizu- ‘It’s not as good as your food.’
What an honest answer. I feel like I've been spoiling Shizu too much lately. Should I be harsher on her?
Shizu, as if feeling my intentions, immediately rolls on her back and begins to act cute.
Shizu- “Meow~”
Oh my goodness, look at this cute little creature. What? Be harsher to her? Don’t be ridiculous. Who can reject this devious little cat devil?
Mikoto and I sit down at our own seats at the table with Shizu sitting on the table itself before I transform into my human form again and activate a skill.
[Creation].
And like that, sparkling food appears on the table releasing a heavenly aroma.
Rimuru/Mikoto/Shizu- “’Itadakimasu’”
And so we clap our hands/paws in front of us, say our thanks, and begin eating. Some Japanese traditions from Mikoto and Shizu rubbed off on me. Shizu didn’t really remember WHY she did it…
‘It just felt right.’
… or, so she said.
What’s that? Why don’t I cook food normally? Hah. Don’t be ridiculous. Do you think I can cook for myself? I barely even know how to cook instant noodles. Sometimes I forget the noodles entirely and I end up with just this pot of flavoured water.
Yeah. It’s that bad.
But with my broken skill [Creation] I can make godly food that tastes amazing. Remember the first meat bun I ate when I first gained my human form? The one that caused me to foodgasm? This food is about as good as that.
Remembering that event makes me thank myself for eating it in my female form, or else moaning in my male or gender-neutral form would be so embarrassing. Now, however, we’ve all gained a form of resistance to it.
Of course, that meat bun was just an ordinary incredibly tasty meat bun. The food in front of me is infused with magicules enhancing the taste and the table has runes written under it to enhance any food placed on it as well.
Imagine if I made a meat bun with this setup… I'm drooling just thinking about it.
No no, my sense of self might be erased…
Anyway, during these 3 weeks since we returned from the Orc Lord event, a few more things happened.
For one, Yamato evolved into a Mythic weapon. Even with my Crest of Space, Yamato could only cut through the world.
(A/N: You say that like it’s weak.)
This is even when I'm supporting it with my infinite magicules. However, now that it evolved, I can probably cut the sun in half.
While still standing here on this planet, mind you.
Furthermore, it now acts as a kind of ‘focus’ that lets me control my spatial powers even better. As a consequence, [Spatial Motion] evolved into [Dominate Space] and now I can do SO many more things. With Yamato’s focusing abilities, I can even be precise enough to split every single one of Shizu’s hairs in half. At the same time.
Shizu, meanwhile, suddenly felt a shiver go down her spine. She temporarily stopped eating, looked left and right, before shrugging and going back to stuffing her face in her food.
I might even be able to use my spatial abilities even in an anti-magic field. I know Yamato can evolve even further, but I'm not exactly sure what the next step is…
<<Report. Mythic Weapon Yamato will eventually evolve into Genesis Weapon Yamato. Unable to estimate the time needed until evolution.>>
Fucking WHAT!? Genesis!? The fuck is that!?
<<Notice. Knowledge about Genesis weapons was found in your memories. Therefore the next evolution after Mythic will be Genesis.>>
What? I don’t remember anything about Genesis weapons… I must've forgotten it. [Raphael] can dig up forgotten memories like that, something I'm thankful for.
While I was thinking about such things, we finish eating.
Rimuru- “Right, I think it’s about time I test some things out.”
I get up and begin to leave. Shizu thinks for a second before hopping off the table and following after me. Mikoto fidgets a little before copying Shizu.
I quickly find myself at the experimental site. On the way here Ranga also hopped out of my shadow and also decided to follow. He could’ve also just sat in my shadow and watch from there, but maybe he’s gotten a bit bored.
As an aside, Ranga and Shizu used to be at odds with each other, but recently they started to at least tolerate each other.
Ranga- ‘Hairball.’
Shizu- ‘Useless dog.’
Trust me, it used to be a lot worse.
Rimuru- “Not now, two of you.”
Ranga- ‘Yes Master.’
Shizu- ‘Okaaayyy…’
I smirk at their antics and look forward again. I unsheathe Yamato, fill it with magicules, and swing it downwards.
*Sounds of 4th Wall-chan breaking*
(A/N: Fuck! What have you done!?)
Rimuru- “Eh?”
*Chapter will have to end here while the Author fixes 4th Wall-chan.*
