Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken novel Chapter 62

After vaporizing the golem I flashed an evil smile.

Ku ku ku.

Now we can continue the conversation on our terms.

ŒNow then, if you don't want to be scorched to death, how about you come on out?

I know exactly where you are all hiding, you know?

I know the general direction but not the exact location.

I'd much rather they come out of their own volition.

In response to my words, in great panic,

ŒYes! Yes, yes, yes!!!

As You have commanded, though greatly embarrassed, we appear before you!!! 

And, with dragonfly wings growing from their backs, tiny and cute girls (?) came flying out.

They were no longer than 30 cm in height. Not midgets, but the kind of fairy you'd hear about in a fairy tale.

At the front of the group lined up girls dressed in dazzling dresses with many frills; behind them, another group was dressed in rather plain dress.

Overall, they dressed in darker colors.

ŒTa-daa! I am one of the ten gweat~...

She bit her tongue.

Should I make fun of her? It seems that she's gotten so used to telepathy that she forgot how to talk.

Œ..... are you okay?

She held up her hand in response,

ŒI am one of the ten great demon lords! Ramiris of the Labyrinth!!!

Cease thou haughty actions! Show humility!!!

She happily said,

While proudly showing off her none-existent chest. Why do I feel so pissed off...

First, let's chop her.

ŒUhyou!!! Wha-what was that for! You'll give me a heart attack!!!

She complained after dodging with her small body.

Horrible, right~? Right~?

Should we kill it? Kill it?

But, but, but, but, it killed the golem, right?

Impossible. Impossible. We'll be killed!

How noisy.

My head was filled with their chatter.

ŒBesides, you are cheating! Why aren't you affected byŽThought Manipulation!

It's been too long since we last met someone like you!!!

Isn't she furious.

I see, so the strange anger I feel towards them is due to me resisting theirŽThought Manipualtionright?

However, there's no way anyone among these fairies (brats) is a demon lord. Are they still messing with me?

ŒHey, next time you lie come up with a more believable one.

There's no way anyone among you brats is a demon lord! 

ŒDon't call us brats! Seriously, how rude. What else am I, if not a demon lord!

ŒHuh? An idiot? Anyways, speaking of demon lords, you know how stupid your claim sounds in comparison to my friend Milim?

Compared to her, you guys are... pathetic?

ŒStupid!

Stupidstupidstupidstupid!!! You are so stupid~!!!!!!

The spirit named Ramiris loudly shouted and then stopped to catch her breath.

And,

ŒListen here.

When you say Milim, surely you refer to that unreasonable demon lord Milim.

The one that solves everything through brute force.

To compare that unreasonable brute to the beautiful I, aren't you just being rude?

Hey, I'll be troubled if you can't understand that much!

Her words full of indignation.

And,

ŒBesides, aren't you a strange one yourself?

What was that? Did you have to suddenly use that dangerous skill!

How many special skills must you possess to use that hell flare?

Please don't be so unreasonable.

Ah, whatever.

I'm not even surprised that you're that Milim's acquaintance; I believe you.

So, believe me as well!

Somehow, she might not be lying after all.

Well, you know? They look pretty harmless up close.

And, they actually listen when you sit down to talk to them.

For some reason, I was preparing the snacks.

If I am the guest, why are our roles reversed?

Not that I care.

The kids have gotten friendly with the fairies and are happily munching on some snacks together. With a satisfied smile.

In the first place, the golem that freaked us out was meant to be shown after we have had our fun.

In fact, they didn't intend to kill us or hurt us.

Which is why,

ŒAaaah... and we we had just finished making it from all those parts...

She complained begrudgingly.

Nothing can be done about it now. If I don't kill it, it'll kill me"so I thought back then...

ŒDo you know just how efficient it was?

Earth Spirits manipulated the weight,

Water spirits moved each individual joint,

Fire spirits provided its power,

Wind spirits regulated the temperature.

Combination of many chemical elements. It was the epitome of the genius of the Ghost Researchers...

She's surprisingly persistent.

If I knew it was going to end up like this, I would have eaten it and made a copy. Though I don't know if I could have done so...

But, genius of the Ghost Researchers? Does that have anything to do with Kaijin's story"the one about the "Magic Soldiers" plan the dwarfs had undertaken withe the elves?

ŒHey, are you talking about the magic soldiers that the dwarfs and elves have been researching together?

ŒBingo, bingoooo!!!

How did you know! It went wild after they failed to use the heart"the Spirit Magic Circuits!

So, we picked up the shell that they threw out!

Does that make us... geniuses? Are we that amazing?

Annoying, but, yes, amazing.

But, we are talking about Ghost Researchers who employ the power of ghosts, and fairies who are probably an existence close to that of ghosts"in other words, I can accept their proficiency in regards to this question.

Anyways, to summarize Ramiris' story: people tried to manipulate the power of ghosts to create a golem.

Filling its body with magical energy as if blood, and pumping it with oil to make it move. And to control its weigh with magic.

But it proved nonsensical.

I mean, its magic supply would be cut off if it just jumped five meters away.

However, were it made usable, it would become a terrifying weapon.

Though Ramiris is an idiot, I guess she is amazing.

ŒAlright, I understand your awesomeness.

Now, I have a request to this awesome you!

I declared.

Then, I explained the children's circumstances.

Without hiding anything; truth and only the truth. The children listened intently.

ŒI see, I see~
