Note: From today forth… Mimic will refer to kuma’s skill. While Mimick will be the full name for Mii… the conscience within that skill.
“Please talk, I’m going to hear you properly this time.”
{Why don’t you just ignore me again?, what I’m going to say is not important after all…}
“Now now, stop sulking okay? I’m sorry for ignoring you. So please continue?”
When Nanda and I was talking, this guy’s voice, «Mimick»’s voice suddenly appeared inside my head.
She introduced her self and such but I ended up ignoring her because of my shock after I heard that I had been sleeping for almost two years.
And as the result she is sulking.
{Are you really sorry?}
“Yes I’m really sorry.”
{Okay then! I accept your apology! Once again I’m «Mimick»! I was created by goddess-sama to support you Kuma-san! You can just call me Mii~!}
Eh?! So fast!
“Ah! yeah. Nice to meet you Mii… just call me Kuma.”
{Okay~ do you know why are you reincarnated as a slime?}
“…is it because that goddess enjoys watching people suffer?”
{No! It’s because the
“Limitless…potentials?”
{Yes! It’s all possible because of their core, their Nucleus, which based on the memory of an individual named
…eh?
{In addition to that, their nucleus can also divide and pick the most suitable element from anything that their host devoured, and improve it! }
Eh? Eh?
{To put it in a more detailed fashion, the Nucleus breaks an element down to the molecular level and then decide whether-}
“Wait, stop! Stop! Stop!!! What kind of nonsense are you talking about?! Please talk in a language that I understand!”
{Eh? Oh, um…to put it simply if a slime ate a bunch of rocks then its body will be harder than said rocks, and if it ate a lot of
I understand.
But…
“I want an explanation! Just what are you-”
{Ehehehe…uh…okay, actually…}
-explanation in progress-
“So basically that goddess made you using the memory of individuals from another world?”
{Unum! Yes! But to be precise I was made with 2 base memories,
“Ah okay…I understand…”
I don’t! This is crazy!!! Another world summoning!? What is wrong with that goddess?!
Don’t tell me…those heroes from the past that was said to have incredible super human like power are…
Aaaaaagh!!!
Me being reincarnated is still in the edge of my common sense and its still understandable…but another world summoning?!!! Just what is wrong with that goddess!!!!
“Huff…huff..huff..haa..haa..”
{Umm…are you okay..?}
“Uh..huff…yeah, I’m..haa…I’m okay…”
C-calm down…take a deep breath… fuuh… I’m calm…fuuh… like the wind…
Haa… okay.

“…I’m calm now… so please continue, but please… use easy to understand words okay?”
{Yea-yeah… I’ll do that… ahaha… ha..
Ehem! Continuing from where we left off…because of slimes unique body structure that are extremely flexible and their powerful Nucleus, they are the only beings capable to handle the huge amounts of stress produced by a deity’s tampering. And thus…its limitless possibilities.}
“So you are saying that…my body has been tampered with by the goddess?”
{Yes, your body has been designed to be able to take on a human appearance, but still… to perfectly finished the evolution you need a tremendous amount of time and energy, luckily you have me here! I already optimized your bodily functions, so the time and energy needed are considerably less than normal. That’s why you only slept for 1 year and 11 months! But do take note that you are still a slime…you do not have flesh like humans do.}
“Yes…I’ll keep that in mind…”
So that’s why I slept for two years.
“Thank you for your explanation Mii… now, shall we get changed?”
{No problem!}
—
“Now this is a problem…”
As soon as I opened my drawer, I can only sigh…
“There are mostly girl’s clothes in here…”
Well…
I can’t really blame them though… when I saw my self in the mirror I also thought that I cannot possibly be a boy.
The figure that was reflected in the mirror was cute to say the least, my shoulder length black hair is simply beautiful. I have black eyes too…
“Black hair and eyes are rare right? If I remember correctly only a few part of the royalty family have those.”
{It’s rare alright! The color black symbolizes the connection with the world’s mana! The darker the color, the more deeper the connection! And according to my data you have only met 2 other people with black hair these past years.}
“Eris and Nanda right?”
Does that mean they have large mana pool?
Anyway, I’m too cute… It felt weird seeing this body in a mirror.
Come to think of it… Eris got a nosebleed when she attempted to get me to wear clothes huh… she has changed. In a good way, she is more honest, but I’m a little afraid that she will become a pervert.
If I can choose between male or female… which should I pick I wonder?
I’m mentally a male though… so I would like to be treated like one.
Though I have nothing ‘down there’.
Is this that goddess’ taste? Or…
Haaa…
Oh well…guess I’ll just wear this shirt and find a pants. Luckily I could find an underwear in one of the drawers.
{Don’t think too much about it Kuma! Like a wise slime once said…’if you think about it, you’ll lose’!.}
“Yeah, I’m not going to dwell on it…let a go downstairs, I’m hungry.”
As I opened the door, I suddenly thought of something… its related to Mii, so I guess I should ask her.
“Oh yeah, by the way Mii… you said you are going to support me? What exactly are you doing?”
{Me? I’m going to act as your Nucleus! Leave all information management and other Nucleus related stuff to me!}
“Ah, yeah. Glad to have you here.”
Nucleus related stuff? Does she manage my whole body or something? Hmm…
Should I tell her?
Haaa… I guess I should.
“Mii, just so you know… I don’t really trust that goddess, are you fine with that?”
{You don’t trust her? Hmm… it doesn’t bother me because my whole purpose is to support you but… why? }
“Its because of ho-”
{Ah nevermind! I can just look through your memories and watch it my self.}
Wha?!
“You can do that?!”
Do I even have any privacy in here?!
{Well yeah, I AM your Nucleus you know? I function kinda like your brain, though now you don’t have any. But I do need your permission to see anything personal, like your memories for example. So?}
“Okay then, I allow you to watch my memories. But! Only about my meetings with that goddess!”
{‘Kay! I’m going to be busy for a while then!}
Knock Your self out.
Shortly after, I arrived at the dinner table.
“Good morning Kuma.”
Said Eris while blushing. Why is she blushing?
“Hey, your face is red, are you sick?”
“Uhm…ehehe..”
“Don’t mind her Kuma, she is just embarrassed.”
Oh Nanda is cooking…
pfft! What’s with that apron! It’s flowers all over!
“Hey…what’s with your apron? Do you really like flower that much..?”
“Nevermind about my apron, you should mind more about your appearance. Your pants are too short!”
“They are called shorts because they are short you know? Anyway you don’t even buy a single pants that I can wear!”
Eris body was… shaking just know?
“Huh? I did though?”
Eh? But I can’t find any I’m the drawers.
Then Nanda stared at Eris with an intimidating gaze. While Eris was sweating heavily… what’s wrong with them today?
“Well I can just buy them again for you later… here let’s eat, this is
“Ah… cheers.”
He said cheers… but he is the only one with alcohol. I’m old enough to drink you know?
“Ah, hey… I just remembered. After both of you are done eating, come to my room okay? I have something to tell you.
“Hmm? Your room right? Okay… after I wash the dishes is fine right? Oi Eris help out after this.”
“Okay Nii-chan!”
Then we began eating, it was delicious. I guess I can taste food now that I have a pseudo-human body.
After I’m done eating, I washed my dishes and went to my room.
I sat by the bed while waiting for them to come.
—
{Are you really going to tell them that? Won’t they be disappointed?}
“If it’s about what I just told you, then yes. After all, I can’t leave that goddess alone can I?”
{I guess you’re right.}
“You’re not going to push me around and tell me to finish collecting those 7 treasures quickly?”
{Nah, I don’t have any intention to do that. I am here to support you and that Is what I will do.
Anyways… about your meeting with the goddess. There are some weird things about her… though I don’t know what.}
“Really? I guess if you saw your creator talking in a murderous manner you will feel weird… its normal… I think.”
{Maybe… ah here they come.}
“We’re here Kuma, here I brought you tea.”
“Ah, thank you. Where’s Eris?”
It’s green tea, with sugar.
“She’s standing outside. Hey! Eris, come in.”
“Um… is it really okay?”
Is this related to the time when she tried to dress me? Does she feel guilty or something?
“Ah its okay, come in. Here sit beside me.”
“Un! Okay!”
After smiling for a bit, she happily ran and sat beside me. While hugging my hand.
Nanda was sighing.
“Nanda, you take a seat too. I’m going to tell you both something important.”
After seeing my serious expression, he took a chair from the corner and sat down.
{Take a deep breath Kuma! Don’t be nervous!}
I know, you don’t have to tell me that.
“Guys… I’m thinking of exploring the world.”
“”Eh?””
