Chapter 40: Bow's Decision
Sila couldn't open his syste Bow as it took his full concentration just to glide alongside her Therefore, he decided to read slime-race skill's description later
Bow seeliding too slow She only waited for hiht This happened so many times Sila couldn't help but comment
”If Bow is busy, you can just tellBrother, I'm not I'm just impatient,” replied Bow
”Ied on Bow's pink body ”The faster Big Brother finishes your quest, the faster I will be able to witness the world outside I'm just so happy I haven't seen the world outside before”
Sila felt surprised and pitied He looked around and found that it wasn't just Bow but other sli one word
Hope
Sila started to feel worried He wasn't confident in hi onto him, the more pressure he felt Once he was a kid, his teacher always told hi too much into his action Soht, especially in a battle There is no need to think about ould happen if he loses or ould happen if he wins; he should focus on the fight itself, not the result
Sila ht able to do it soer opponents, he couldn't help but think that heup to this, his body stopped ain to folloho had waited for him ahead
Both of thedo this place is called Cliff of Heroes Without it, this place doesn't look much different than a usual cliff
”Bohy is this place called Cliff of Heroes?” asked Sila
”Because this place is the location that sliainst hard ordeals It's a place to test whether one is h If one wants to take on the ordeals, one needs to prove that one is brave enough to jump off this cliff,” answered Bow
Sila moved closer to the cliff ”Thank you for direct o now” He said as he saw that Boas still standing on the edge of the cliff
Bow seemed hesitated for a moment before so brother, ju back Bow had already jumped off the cliff
”Hey Wait…”
Sila looked doard The cliff see down there but darkness As Bow said, the bravery is needed to ju for us
”Even a little girl like her can jump” Sila muttered to himself He sed his saliva and finally juht see into darkness In the end, a co
It was truly dark It felt like he himself had become a part of the darkness
He didn't kno long time had passed Once Sila woke up, he found that he was finally on the flat ground He must have arrived at the bottoht as daytime
”So you finally wake up” A bass sound of aout Sila turned his head to look
There was a sli in front of him This slime's color was blue A scar could be seen under his left eye
As Sila was a qi-type player, he could somehow sense qi deep inside this slime's eyes
”Yes, sir I have woken up” Sila replied before looking around ”Excuse irl? She is currently under the trial,” answered the blue slime
”The trial?” Sila was curious Does this slime mean Way of Slime's ordeal?
”It seems you are not yet to fully understand Let me tell you We slime are different froy type For instance, dragon is ic-type creature, merpeople is psychic-type, and wolf is qi-type Usually, when humans choose a race, they tend to choose a race that is in line with their current energy type for efficiency Well, choosing race of different energy type frorant you the skills of another energy type Although it's not an efficient choice, some people choose this way as it's more versatile
”However, sliy types e are young We only have to choose the energy type once we ender once it reaches adulthood Though, sliirl, Bow, is currently doing is trying to pass a trial to prove that she's y type It's only that…”
Sila was about to ask for more detail about it But as the blue sli, he felt he wouldn't like what he was about to listen However, he asked anyway
”It's only… what?”
”It's only that Bow is still too young I don't knohether she will survive Actually, she should try it five years later But she said she was in a hurry”
Sila's body was pale ”Wait Why don't you stop her then, sir?”
Blue sli off the Cliff of Heroes means that she believes she is ready to face whatever fate awaits her There are only two results: pass the trial or death It's a rule The name of this place already implies that fact If you dare to face the trial, you also need to accept the consequence of your action”
Sila was stunned He couldn't believe that Boas such a reckless girl No, thinking about it, this decision of her wasat the edge of the cliff for so long, hesitating to face with the trial But his arrival shoved that hesitation of hers away
Hope
Such a powerful concept which can lead to either good or bad result It is like water that can make a boat float while also able to crash it down Bow et out of this place and believe in Sila that he can do so She believed in hi off the cliff to obtain her freedom
”Don't lose yourself in other people's business You better concern about yours” The blue slime interrupted Sila
”Me?”
”Is what I have said not clear enough? There are only two results waiting for slime who jumped off the cliff: pass the trial or death”
Sila just realized at that time He came to complete Way of Slime's ordeal too
”My name is Poluk I'm your instructor in the first trial,” said the blue slime
”My name is Sila,” quietly said Sila He was still unable to stop worrying about Bow
