"Dan, take off your armor, Jonathan, bring the cart over."
Jonathan lifted the gray cloth covering the cart, revealing the iron cages beneath, where tiny slimes lay silently within.
Kael snapped his fingers, and his silvery-white gloves suddenly transformed into a blade, slicing the iron cage in half.
The Gluttonous Slimes inside slowly crawled toward him, prostrating at his feet.
Or more precisely, they were submitting to the feet of the Gluttonous Slime attached to Kael's body.
Behind Kael, a ripple formed, and a silver-white metallic mass slowly took shape, outlining a petite girl who wrapped her arms around Kael's neck, laughing with a bell-like sound.
The crowd looked curiously at the Slime Girl who bore a resemblance to Kael.
"Just call her Aister."
That was the name Kael had given to this monster, and when the little Slime Girl heard Kael's call, her otherwise unfluctuating expression showed a slight change.
