Spring 3 - Month 1 - Year 2001
It was early in the morning, Rob, Ron and Ria were walking on the prairie going back to camp 7 after a month of hunting monster in the wild. They actually wanted to take some rest nearby but decided to keep travelling until they reached camp 7.
They managed to get a good haul of item drop and monster material. They happily walking while chatting with each other.
"How much money can we get selling all of this?" asked Rob.
"Obviously a lot. We managed to kill a legend grade monster and that will get us a lot of money," said Ron.
"All thanks to me giving the best finishing blow," said Ria bragging that she was the one who killed the legend grade monster.
"Yeah, after we painfully weaken the monster," said Rob and Ron nodded agreed with Rob. The trio kept talking to each other and killed any monster that came near them.
While they were busy talking, Ria saw something from a far. She saw a blue blob happily bouncing in the prairie. Ria stopped walking and Ron and Rob also stopped.
"What's wrong Ria?" asked Ron.
"Hey, did you see that?" said Ria while pointing in a direction.
"Huh? What did you see?" said Rob while looking at the direction where Ria pointed. Ron also looked that way. When they both looked at the direction, they also fell silent.
"That shape, that 'footwork', that size, that happy go lucky attitude," said Ria.
"Is it what I think it is?" said Ron.
"That is a slime… A new species of slime!!!" screamed Rob. Rob looked at Ron, Ron looked at Ria. The trio nodded at the same time and quickly ran towards the new slime. When they got nearer, the new slime saw them and happily bounced towards them.
"Whoa!! It is a new slime. Look at its color. It is not white but blue," said Ria and she squatted a bit and poked at the slime. "The bounciness of the body is the same as the original slime."
"That smile is the same too," said Ron who also squatted and also poked at the slime.
"Only color is different," said Rob who also squatted but he petted the slime. The three of them look at each other again and they nodded. Ria used the camera function from the system and took a selfie of her, Ron and Rob with the new slime.
She quickly went online and post a new thread on camp 7 forum.
[Breaking News!!!!! After 2000 years, we finally get a new species of slime!!! Rejoice to those who their compatibility is slime. You can power up… a bit] She attached the selfie she took on the thread.
Ria focused her eyes on the screen of her system looking at the thread she just posted. 5 seconds later, someone replied to the thread.
[Is that real? Not photoshop] @ght222 replied
[Yup. This is real. My teammates playing with it right now. Wait a minute. I will take some video] @ria56 replied which was Ria herself.
Ria quickly used the video function and recorded Ron and Rob playing with the new slime and posted it on the thread. @ght222 saw the video and replied.
[For real?]
[That slime looks exactly the same as the slime from Dragon Quest] @kkk69 replied.
[That slime looks cute] @klfk944 replied
[Wait for me new slime, I will come for you] @5jw84 replied and many others suddenly replied. More and more people replied and the thread explode. After Ria posted the news, many other people quickly went to the prairie and found other new slime. More and more people posted new thread confirming the slime name and the item dropped.
The discovery of the new slime shocked the world. Tv and internet reported everything about the slime. The news about the new slime shocked the world because it had been 2000 years and there were never any signs of it to get new species.
Researcher all around the world started went to the first dimension to do research on the blue slime. They confirmed of the new slime and said it was a color variant of the original slime.
Humans with slime compatibility also went to first dimension to increase their strength and they hoped more and more new slime will appeared.
The slime pillow was well known to be one of the best pillows in the world and now they can be found in new color, blue. Demand for the blue pillow skyrocket and their price was raised so much.

Dean got a good night rest in his room sleeping on the soft and comfortable slime pillow. He stretched his body a bit a woke up. He took a shower and went for breakfast. Dean went to a small café in camp 7 for his breakfast before he took off to hunt the blue slime.
While eating, Dean heard people around them talking about the blue slime. They said the blue slime was cute and beautiful and so on. Dean blushed when he heard that. The blue slime was his creation after all.
Dean checked online and saw many people posted about the blue slime. The blue slime got so many recognitions for being cute. Dean was happy but he knew that the blue slime will fade soon. There was nothing special about it anyway other than its color.
After he finished eating, Dean went straight to the prairie. Dean was shocked with so many people there hunting for blue slime. Sys told Dean about the price spike for blue pillow. Sys asked Dean to grabbed this chance and earn some money and Dean took the advice to heart and went to find a blue slime. He knew how important money for him right now. He needed money to buy some better gear to use.
Dean went around the prairie but he can't find any blue slime because there were too many people hunting the same thing. After an hour of walking, he finally found a blue slime.
"Finally find one. Why is it so hard to find the blue slime? Is it because of too many people?" asked Dean.
'That is one reason. The other is the blue slime did not get much time to reproduce since we keep killing them' said Sys. Dean was shocked when he heard that.
"Wait, does that mean they will go extinct?" said Dean. He was concerned about this since he was the one who create the blue slime. Seeing his creation went extinct was painful for him.
'No, don't worry about that. Once you create a monster, they will never go extinct' said Sys.
"Phew~ That is good," Dean relief. Dean then quickly went to the blue slime and killed it.
'Normal grade blue slime killed. Blue slime core, blue pillow and blue slime soul obtain. Do you want to register them?' Sys notified Dean. Dean was shocked with what he got. Dean decided to register all of them. All three things disappear and registered in his system.
"Sys, why did I get all three of them altogether?" asked Dean. He found it weird that he got all three at his first kill. There was no way that was possible.
'This is the advantage given to the creator of the new monster. Whenever you create new monster, your first kill of that monster will guarantee you the core, item drops and soul of the monster' said Sys.
"No way. That is too good," said Dean amazed with that but then he thought of something. "Urm… Sys, is that really an advantage? Even if I got all of them at my first try, I will register it to my system and lost them forever. How can that be an advantage?" asked Dean.
'There is another advantage. That one for your first kill. After this, whenever you kill the monster you created, you will 100% get the core with full 10 data to be absorbed, 75% chance of item drop and 50% chance of getting the monster soul' said Sys and Dean can heard him chuckle a bit.
When Sys told Dean that, his eyes and mouth wide opened shocked with all that.
"Amazing!!! Then I can easily power up and complete collecting all my data," said Dean with big smile on his face.
'Dean, there is also something else I need to tell you' said Sys with serious voice.
"What is it?" asked Dean.
'Never ever tell this to anyone else. If someone else knew that you can create new monster, they will try to exploit you' warned Sys.
"I know that. Don't worry. I never intend to tell this to someone else. I want to use this power to help myself. I want to create many new slimes and help all the people with slime compatibility. My aim for now is to fill my normal data by creating many normal grade slimes. I already calculate everything that if I want to help everyone that have the same fate as me, I need to create at least 25 different slimes for every grade," said Dean with determined face.
"I want to change the world"
