The Catacombs—Slera's Den [ Early Morning ].
Quietly fluttering around the streets of the den—small litmus bugs spread out across the area as they lit up the village in a bright hue, representative of the morning sun. At the same time, the slimes that had slept through the night began flooding the streets to get a jump-start of their day.
"Gloop!"
"Gloop~"
Meanwhile, from the entrance of the village—two young women stepped into the Sleras's Den with tired and exhausted eyes, alongside an expression of dejection.
"...we're back, huh?" The one who had entered into the den first—Hikari, spoke out in a tired voice. "Sigh... That was such a hopeless expenditure."
"Ugh... Did we seriously just spent six hours or so searching through the unexplored area?" From behind Hikari, the blonde-haired woman—Crowelin, clicked her tongue whilst scratching her head. "All those encounters with the immortal monsters... And we found nothing! Nothing at all!"
