Marco and Alice were traveling once again, and this time they were going towards Undine's Spring to pick up Undine.
[Evening]
The moon could be seen in the sky, and the light of the sun was shining at the end of the hill behind him, it was twilight…
In front of Marco and Alice, there was a small lake that was reflecting the light of the sun, and there were some tropical trees around.
Marco: I think this is the "Spring"... Undine should be hiding somewhere down there.
Alice: This place… I see. Erubetie's… It looks like this is going to get annoying.
Marco ignored her, knowing what is down there together with Undine, and stepped forward.
?: Stay away…
A voice interrupted his steps, but there was no one except him and Alice around.
?: Human, don't come any closer to this place…
Marco: Sorry but I need to pick something down there… So… How do I get there?
Sylph: Yaay! Let's go get Deeny!
Gnome: …
Alice: The entrance must be in the spring somewhere. If you dive in, you can probably make it to the dungeon entrance. I'll wait here.
Marco: Ok, see ya later, Alice.
Then he dived in the lake…
*Pa-Pa*
*Pa*
*Pa-Pa*
*PA!*
And found a white screen in front of his face, which dumbfounded Marco.
There was a blue star with a pair of cartoonish black eyes that was spinning around and the number 1 over it.
Under the star, there was the words: "Slimy Situation"
Under those words there was a wooden round table with a fox's face carved over it, in the silhouette there was the number 1, while over the fox's face there was the word: "Course", as if spelling "Course 1".
And under the wooden round table there was the name of the place: "Undine's Spring".
Marco: 'What the fuck is this, Super Mario 64?'
The white screen disappeared and he found himself in an underwater cave, which was a bit creepy…
Marco: The things I'm doing for coexistence… If I was paid for every strange situations I was in I would have bought the Monster Lord's Castle…
Suddenly, a puddle in front of him took the shape of a girl.
She was a slime made of azure jelly, she had long hair and ears, with a nice body shape, but from her thighs and under that, it looked like a real slime.
Jelly Girl: Human, why are you here…?
Marco: Uhhhh… Pizza time?
Jelly Girl: *Giggles* It's rape time!
Marco: Fuck no!
Then Marco used the 1st Gate and punched the Jelly Girl… But his arm was stuck in her body…
Jelly Girl: Hehe, normal atta- Ouch! Ow ow ow! Hot!
She immediately backed away from his arm when she noticed the sudden increase of temperature inside her liquid body, probably coming from his aura.
Marco immediately let out a devilish grin, and stepped towards the Jelly Girl.
Marco: Hug me!
Jelly Girl: No! Stay away from me!
She crawled away from Marco as fast as she could, not wanting to melt from Marco's temperature.
Marco was still grinning, but didn't dared to deactivate the 1st Gate, there was still Erubetie, the Slime Queen, one of the Heavenly Knights.
And the one who threatened to nuke Hellgondo, which was hardly possible for her, even if it was a continent, it could be surpassed in 24 hours of walking, so it is pretty small, maybe he could destroy it with a standard Bijuudama at the 9th Gate…
However, even if there were many enemies around and probably under his feet…
Marco: Undine!!! Where are you???
He was still yelling… Well, he got balls of steel…
Some time later, he encountered another monster girl, but it wasn't a problem, because he was at the 2nd Gate.
?: Even though I said not to approach… Why have you come here?
The voice WASN'T coming from the monster girl, who was a Blob Girl, similar to the Jelly Girl but pink and not semi-transparent like the previous one. Marco had an idea about who was talking, but he didn't care much.
Blob Girl: Aha, a delicious looking h-
Marco: HUG!!
Then Marco hugged the Blob Girl, who started to burn, whoever tries to throw himself in a Blob Girl could be considered as a person who lost the will to live, but Marco's heat solved everything, and frightened the Blob Girl who ran away from him with a burned spot on her body.
Some minutes passed from the last encounter, and Marco didn't found jackshit in this place, he immediately used the 3rd Gate, in case he met with Erubetie, so he could either use the 4th Gate or beat her with the spirits, which is impossible…
Aaaaand, a Green Smile appeared, and this one had the body of a loli,
Green Slime: Eh…? What's a human doing here?
Marco: ...This is a robbery! Hands up!
The Green Slime was scared and did as he said, her slimy body was trembling, and Marco, after successfully intimidating her, said.
Marco: Leave all your valuables here and leave immediately!
Green Slime: O-O-Ok… I don't need these items anyways…
Then from her slimy body, unexpectedly a…
Marco: I-Is that…
A 50g packet with weed?
Weeeeeelll… Let's keep on…
Marco: Oi! Author! What are you hiding?!
Shhhhh… Just, let's go back on the story…
After the Green Slime let out the packet, she ran away immediately like Marco said, he, still dumbfounded, picked up the packet and not knowing what to do with it, he burned it.
*Ding*
Status: Drugged*
Marco: 'Holy fuck, the smoke carries the same effects… System, use cure.'
*Ding*
*Cure used*
*Time to cure: 3 seconds*
…
*Ding*
*Status: Healthy*
Marco sighed in relief and walked away, probably the cloud made from burned weed would not affect the slimes.
*Ding*
*Status: Drugged*
Marco: 'Yeah, fuck you…'
He gave up, unless the cloud of burned weed would leave, it looks like he will go on like this…
Some time passed, and Marco walked around with a dumb smile on his face.
Stoned Marco: Wh...What should I have done…? Oh right, UNDIIIIIINEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
His yell reached the entire cave, and an angry voice replied back.
?: ...I warned you, but you still came this far. In addition, you attacked my brethren…
Stoned Marco: It's called Self-Defence, Karen!
In the next instant, a blue liquid bleed out from the ground, and grew until it took the shape of a woman.
She was a beautiful blue slime girl with a great body, she had a purple tattoo on her right boob and waist, she had pointed ears and long slimy hair that covered her left eye, on her forehead, over the hair, there was a purple spherical gem, and had a pair of horn-like appendages on her head.
Stoned Marco: Goddammit Karen, you got slimy everywhere!
Erubetie was dumbfounded from his words, but she shook her head and talked.
Erubetie: You ignored my repeated warnings, and came here anyway… This sacred area where my brethren live in peace… We too-
Stoned Marco: I don't give a fuck… Get away from here Karen, I need to pick up Un… Un… How was she called?
Erubetie: You came here for Undine?
Stoned Marco: Yeah! That was the name… Jesus, that weed is really fucking my brain… Hehe… Fucking…
Erubetie: You will not come closer to her or pollute this place…
Stoned Marco: Pollute? Woman, I know places where you breathe smoke instead of air! Fuck pollution, any dumpster you can find here is cleaner than Milan!
Erubetie: ...Milan? What the hell are you talking about?
Stoned Marco: Huh? Oh, it's weed… So.. Can you move aside, Karen?
Erubetie: I'M NOT KAREN!!! *Sigh* Undine doesn't wish to meet with an human…
Stoned Marco: Human? I'm a damn reincarnated person!!! Wheeeee!!!!
Marco ran towards the depth of the cave, Erubetie was pissed off and followed him to stop him, ignoring the second biggest secret of his… After the fact that this universe is just a game.
