Chapter 18 - Entering the Sakura Samsara

[Advocate of gender equality: Did I hear someone is going to live stream!?]

Just as he was about to click the button to start the live stream, Kazuma's annoying message reached him

[Devourer: Yes]

[Advocate of gender equality: Yes! Now I will not be the only one to be humiliated!]

[Sentient game character: Don't you think that's just because you are an idiot and a useless shut-in otaku?]

[Advocate of gender equality: Damn! I've already said that I'm not!]

Adam closed the Chat Room as he saw the beginning of a long argument that he didn't want to get involved with

[Devourer (Admin) has activated the streaming function]

Both Monika and Kazuma immediately stopped arguing when they saw this

Adam looked at the camera in front of him and waved "Hello, can you see me and hear me?" His smooth voice echoed out to the surroundings

[I'm a slime, so what?: We can see and hear you Adam! All is working fine!]

[Schizophrenic spider: ....]

[Exhibitionist: Huh, I didn't expect you to be so h-handsome]

[Sentient game character: I didn't expect this... But I'm quite amazed~]

Adam nodded to express that he understood their words

Well... Having the charm of the skill [Chosen one] combined with the perfect body designed by the world's voice and C.C's own inherent charm and elegance that the character card gave him, their reactions are quite natural

[Advocate of gender equality: You...You're a bushounen!!?? And I thought we were comrades!]

Except one it seems....

Adam looked at the camera with an intense stare and smiled "Indeed Kuzuma. But don't worry, even though I'm more handsome than you, you are still my friend" He finished with a smirk

[Advocate of gender equality: Don't joke with me, you pretty boy! I'm more manly than you!]

[Schizophrenic spider: Relatively speaking, Adam is more pleasant to the eye than you~]

"Thank you, cute spider" Adam replied with his charming smile

[Schizophrenic spider: Eh?]

"Anyway, it's time to go see the sealed Herscher" Adam ignored the spider and walked forward the shrine while the camera started following him

As he entered the shrine, his gaze slid to the black box hidden in the corner

The shrine wasn't anything special, the items and furniture inside it were worn out and scattered

[Exhibitionist: Is this really a place where a sealed Herscher is?]

[Sentient game character: How do I say this... This ruined and old place isn't really a place where a being who can destroy a city can inhabit]

Adam turned to the camera and spoke "This place is a remnant from 500 years ago"

"As for the Herscher, She has been sealed in this box for 50.000 years, so she has lost a lot of strength" Adam spoke in a grim tone, even though the Herscher having lost a lot of strength should have been a good thing

[I'm a slime, so what?: 50.000 years!?]

[Schizophrenic spider: That's.... A long time]

[Advocate of gender equality: Damn, shouldn't the Herscher be an old granny now?]

Adam chuckled "Herschers don't age, and they also vary in strength depending on their ability"

Adam approached the black box that was hidden in the corner and touched it "As for this one, she doesn't have a lot of direct combat potential, but her abilities are one of the most dangerous" He said as he looked at the camera beside him

[Exhibitionist: I see... For you to approach it so casually means that you have a way to combat her]

Adam looked at her message as he opened his mouth to say something "Well actually-"

He was interrupted as his vision went black and a suction force came from his hand as he was sucked into the black box

....

...

.

"Ugh" Adam exclaimed as he opened his eyes to find himself standing in a forest

[Sentient game character: Adam! Are you okay!?]

[I'm a slime, so what?: Yeah! What happened!?]

Adam looked at the messages as he felt the worry oozing out of their words

"So the camera came with me..." Adam murmured as he noticed the camera beside him

[Exhibitionist: You were sucked in the black box, and the screen shifted to forest]

"I see" Adam frowned as he searched his memories to see if he could find what this place was

"Maybe I'm in the stigmata space?" He murmured again as he thought back to the space created by the Herscher of Corruption to torture Sakura in order to possess her body

[Advocate of gender equality: What's a stigmata space?]

He looked at the message as he decided to satisfy Kazuma's curiousity

"It's-"

[Schizophrenic spider: BEHIND YOU!]

Adam instantly side flipped and turned his head to see what attacked him

The location where he was previously in was pierced by a white and pink spear

His eyes widened when he looked at what attacked him

"A honkai beast!" He shouted in both surprise and a slight fear

Actually, Adam had already sensed it with his Magic (honkai) perception

It was quite inconspicuous as it radiated a lot of honkai energy, but he didn't make a move as he wasn't sure if it was real or an illusion

And now...

'It's a chariot? No a knight maybe?' He tried to identify the type of honkai beast that this was

This was the first time he was facing a honkai beast, so he had no idea about what class it was exactly

Of course, he could pull information out of his memories from the game, but he didn't pay much attention to honkai beasts below emperor level when he was playing honkai impact

His combat experience was limited to practising martial arts and the beasts he slaughtered with Rimuru in the Tensura verse

With Thought Acceleration running at full power, Adam activated [Heat Vision]...

And as expected, nothing came up. He should have expected this, honkai beasts are not biological creatures, they are silicon based

'So [Noxius breath] and [Paralysis breath] won't work either...' Adam concluded

The honkai beast didn't wait any longer, it directly lifted up the spear and ran towards Adam's direction trying to pierce him or run him over with it's huge size

When the beast reached him, it once again thrust it's spear to him

Adam shot a [Sticky thread] from his left hand towards the beast's head and focused all his power on his legs as he jumped up

He shifted his hand as the thread pulled him over the honkai beast

In the air, Adam stared at the honkai beast as he flicked his other hand and a high pressure water blade launced from his limp towards the beast's weak spot

Surprisingly, the water blade cut it's head like a knife through hot butter

Adam landed on the ground as the honkai beast collapsed behind him

When he raised his head, his eyes shifted from brilliant blue into noble golden as [Great Sage] analyzed this phenomenon

"So weak?" Adam said in surprise as how fragile it was

He watched as the honkai beast dissipated into air

[Advocate of gender equality: Damn! That was really cool!]

[I'm a slime, so what?: As expected of Adam!]

He didn't pay attention to the messages as he felt multiple presences in front of him

And sure enough, he saw a lot of honkai beasts appearing in front of him

'It seems the Herscher of Corruption detected me and tried getting rid of me' Adam concluded

'Great Sage, can you analyze the stigmata space from the inside?' He mentally asked his skill

[Affirmative.... Analyzing....]

'The Analysis should take quite some time, so until then....' He looked at the numerous honkai beasts in front of him, and he licked his lips in anticipation

....

...

.

Adam was currently behind the one of the last honkai beasts that were spawned in this place

The honkai beast's body was filled with white threads everywhere on its surface, and it was staying still since it couldn't move

Adam violently flicked his right hand...

And the honkai beast was cut into countless pieces before dissipating

'They have to be weaker than normal, otherwise I don't think [Steel thread] could cut the honkai beast so smoothly' Adam silently thought in his head as he noticed the abnormality of these beasts

The Chat Room, on the other hand was eerily silent as the members watched his battle with the utmost focus

[Sentient game character: Wow...]

Monika was quite amazed at the previous display of violence, but she was also amazed at the display of Adam's powers and abilities. It's quite normal, she killed her own friends through coding and otherwise normal means, so such a display is enough to get her in deep thought

Adam sensed another honkai beast trying to injure him from behind, but he made no move to dodge

[Schizophrenic spider: Careful!!]

Just as the honkai beast's spear was about to pierce him, it was cleaved in half by a sword

Adam turned around and saw a beautiful woman sheathing her katana

The woman had cherry colored hair with ocean blue eyes, she wore a miko outfit that exposed her side breasts and her slender legs

The woman turned to him and spoke "You should be more careful from now on. Not being aware of your surroundings could kill you" She finished

[Advocate of gender equality: What a beautiful and dangerous woman!]

Adam had to agree with Kazuma

'Hello there, Sakura' he said in his mind as his golden eyes shifted back to glowing blue
