Thanks to the defeat of a large number of orcs including an Emperor Orc, the twins had shown a significant increase in their levels. However, the one who showed an even greater level-up was Sura.

Sura

Species Level: 99

“When did that happen?” (Leon)

『I ate a lot of bees, you know.』 (Sura)

Apparently, it was the result of her going on a rampage hunting killer bees in the Orc Forest. Moreover, her level had reached 99 and hit the cap.

“At this rate, you might evolve again.” (Leon)

『Ummm, now that you mention it, I feel kinda tight.』 (Sura)

Realizing something after being told, Sura suddenly started to slump down.

Just like last time, Sura completely lost her energy, and her body began to emit light. Back then it was her first time evolving, and they had panicked and rushed to the guild, but this time they were able to watch over her with peace of mind. Eventually, the evolution seemed to be complete, and the light faded.

“Your appearance hasn’t changed at all.” (Leon)

There was no change in her size.

Her color was still red.

When Leon appraised her…

Sura
Species: Queen Slime
Species Level: 1
Strength: SS
Endurance: SSS
Dexterity: SS
Agility: SS
Magic Power: SS
Luck: SS
Status: Leon’s contracted beast

“Queen Slime?” (Leon)

It was a species he had never heard of before.

“I know about King Slimes though.” (Leon)

King Slimes were said to be the rulers of slimes, with large bodies that sometimes grow bigger than houses.

『I can get big too.』 (Sura)

Apparently, her personality hadn’t changed either, as Sura spoke in her usual manner.

By the way, they were currently in one of the rooms of the inn they had been renting since arriving in the royal capital. Due to Sura’s increasing weight, Leon had secretly reinforced the floor and pillars, fearing that they might collapse otherwise, but this was kept secret from the innkeeper.

『Like this.』 (Sura)

““Big.”” (Arc/Iris)

When Sura grew larger, her head touched the ceiling and she occupied more than half the room.

『I can get even bigger.』 (Sura)

“Isn’t this your maximum size?” (Leon)

『It is.』 (Sura)

Apparently, she had limited herself based on the room’s size.

So, to test how big she could truly grow, Leon and the others left the royal capital and went to a deserted grassland area.

“Alright, it’s fine to grow as much as you want here.” (Leon)

『I’ll try it out.』 (Sura)

Sura who had shrunk back to head-riding size, began to grow rapidly. She surpassed the size of a single-story building, then a two-story house, and still kept growing.

『This is the limit.』 (Sura)

“Wait a…” (Leon)

““Ooooh.”” (Arc/Iris)

By the time she had fully grown, she was as large as a three-story building.

“So, this is a Queen Slime…” (Leon)

『I could do this before too, you know.』 (Sura)

“You could!?” (Leon)

In other words, she had been compressing herself to that size, which explained the tremendous weight. If anyone other than Leon had casually let her sit on their head, their neck would probably snap, and they would die.

“So then, the Queen Slime doesn’t have any special features?” (Leon)

『Umm, wait a bit.』 (Sura)

Suura shook her massive body with a wobble.

Then part of her body bulged, gradually forming a lump.

That lump detached and plopped to the ground.

While Leon was observing it wondering what it was, it began to move on its own.

It circled around Leon and the others, then started hopping around to get their attention.

『Look look.』 (Sura)

“Did you just consciously split yourself?” (Leon)

Slime reproduction was said to occur when an individual divided on its own. However, that was usually something that happens spontaneously in nature. Suura, then, continued to separate parts of her body one after another. Each one began moving independently.

『Yaaay.』(Baby Sura)

『Leoooon.』(Baby Sura)

『Sooo fuuun.』 (Baby Sura)

Apparently, each had its own will.

When Leon appraised them, each one was registered as his contracted beast, though their stats were lower than Sura’s main body. Furthermore, when those baby Suras touched Sura’s body, they sank in and were reabsorbed.

Before long, Sura returned to her original state as if nothing had happened.

“I see. So, you can split at will, and merge again whenever you like.” (Leon)

『Yup.』 (Sura)

It seemed to be a unique ability of the Queen Slime.

After testing a few things, they figured out the following for now.

• The size and strength of the split bodies could be freely adjusted to some extent.
• There was no limit to the number of split bodies.
• The more she split, the smaller and weaker the main body became.

Additionally, since all the split bodies were Leon’s contracted beasts, he could communicate with them. Moreover, by using telepathy, they could be stationed around the city to gather information in a human wave strategy. Small-bodied slimes would be hard to spot if they hid in the shadows.

“It seems like this could be used in all kinds of convenient ways.” (Leon)
