01x04 - Everyday Life with a Slime

[bunniefuu]

My darling was so cool.

I'm going to start dating you
as a potential marriage partner.

I'll look forward to it.

Darling!

M-Marriage, huh?

I must properly maintain my blade

so I am always prepared to protect my master.

Hey, Centorea, let's play a game!

Stop, Papi.

I'm polishing my sword.

Centorea!

I told you to stop.

That should do it.

Dinner, everyone!

Master, let's play a game!

After dinner, Papi.

Hurry, hurry!

Something smells good.

What's for dinner today?

Miia?

Species 4 "Everyday Life with a Slime"

What was that?

It was a slime.

A slime? Like those slimes?

There are many species still
unrecognized by human society.

Slimes are one of them.

No need to worry, however.

I will protect you, Master!

I swear upon my blade,

though it's a replica...

I will not permit a lesser being
such as a slime to harm you!

Uh, thanks...

Hey.

Let's play a game! Play with me!

This is no time for games!

Aww, why not?

What are you talking about?

Papi's really taken a liking to video games.

Get down!

Get away from my master!

What? No effect?

But aren't slimes the weakest
of the weak in RPGs?

Do you get all your information from games?!

Cerea, are you okay?

Yes, I believe so.

I had no idea slimes were so formidable.

My entire body is slimy.

Master?

I, uh...

I-I'm going to take a shower.

Be careful, Papi.

This girl...

I never expected a slime to show up.

I'm living in some kind of fantasy world.

What should I do?

Should I call Smith-san?

Master, um...

Would it be all right if I...

Huh?

Oh... Sure. I don't mind.

All right...

Then...

Excuse me.

Huh?

Hey!

Cerea, what are you doing?

I-It's not what you think!

My motives are not impure.

The slime may attack again,

so I can't leave you by yourself.

I have to! I have no choice!

Couldn't you keep your clothes on, then?

I—

I couldn't get the slime off my body,

so I was hoping you could wash it off.

I'm sorry for the trouble.

It's fine.

You got dirty trying to save me.

But you can't reach back here, right?

Do you not usually wash it?

I do! I use a long-handled brush.

I was just especially dirty toda—

Master...

Y-You don't need to clean around my rump.

It's a very, um...

s-sensitive area...

Sorry! You're right!

Of course your rump would
have some sensitive areas!

Don't say it so loudly...

O-Okay, I'll wash somewhere else.

No, wait!

Sorry, I panicked!

Anyway, that's not what I meant!

Shouldn't she have gotten
in the bath to begin with?

A-Anyway, I wonder why the slime attacked us.

Water.

Water?

It was probably looking for water.

First it was in the pot,

then it went to the water in the sink.

This is just conjecture,

but perhaps it must always seek out water.

Water, huh?

It'd be dangerous to let it in the bath, then.

The slime! When did it—

Th-That's not your sword...

Cerea, are you okay?

W-Wait! I'm not very nutritious!

Besides, why would you want to t*rture a guy?

there's no demand for—

Wha—

A girl?

Oh, that's just what her species is?

Wh-What are you...

N-Now, hold on. You can't just...

I'm not ready for...

U-Um, hello?

What is this? Why are you washing me?

H-Hey!

Are you listening to me?!

Do you not understand me?

Why is this happening?

She's washing me the way I was washing Cerea.

Could it be...

Has she been trying to copy
what we were doing?

Is she trying to communicate
with us by copying us?

Maybe she's not dangerous.

I can't grab her!

I can't get out!

I can't breathe...

P-Please, Slime-chan...

If you want to communicate,

please read my thoughts!

Nope, she doesn't understand!

C-Can't breathe...

It's no use. I'm losing consciousness...

But if it's come to this,
I have to take a chance!

I-I thought I was going to die.

Stay there for a while.

You defeated the slime by diluting it.

I'm impressed, Master.

Darling, that was amazing.

No, no.

It was a gamble, though.

She could have absorbed the water
and become a giant monster.

I was shocked when she took
on a human form, though.

Human?

And her breasts were huge.

What?

Uh, I mean...

A humanoid slime, huh?

What? Is that unusual?

I've never heard of one before.

Shouldn't we report this to Lady Smith?

Will she actually handle the situation?

She can be so careless.

Is it all right for us to leave it in the tub?

I'm not sure.

I'm sure it won't run away again...

Monster Girls.

Monster Girls.

My mug!

It was part of a matching set with Darling's!

Wh-What is this?

My sword is covered in slime.

Damn this slime!

Now, now...

Now, now. Don't be so angry.

Suu isn't doing it on purpose.

Suu?

Since she's a slime, I named her Suu.

Suu?

Yeah, Suu.

It spoke?

She's good at mimicking.

But she can't be allowed
to remain naked forever.

She can't wear clothes with
that slimy body, though.

A raincoat.

It doesn't absorb water,

so it won't get wet and transparent.

Good idea, Darling.

You're so cute, Suu.

Hey!

She seems more erotic now.

I thought she was slightly larger, though.

Why did she shrink?

Maybe she lost water while
running from the bathroom.

Papi.

In fact, that might be her actual size.

Papi is Papi.

Papipi?

But Darling, what are we going to do?

Huh?

She probably didn't arrive
through proper channels.

She may have been mixed in with imports,

or someone may have brought her here.

You mean she's an ill*gal immigrant?

Shouldn't we turn her over to Lady Smith?

Since we don't know where she's from,

we don't know where to send her.

They'll probably put her under
probationary supervision or imprison her.

Imprison her?

Surely they wouldn't do that.

Imprison?

But if something isn't done,
they might punish you, as well.

Master, I believe we should turn her over
to Lady Smith as soon as possible.

There's still friction between
our species and human society.

I can't imagine that slime
overcoming that conflict.

She may eventually make a mistake.

When that happens, everything we've
worked to build will go to waste.

Wait, Papi!

Where are you taking the slime?

Wait, Darling!

Where are you going, Papi?

Stop struggling!

Suu!

Huh?

Are you okay, Suu?

Wow! You're totally fine!

There's someone here who's not fine, though.

But why did you suddenly start struggling?

She was probably afraid of the river.

She melted in the bathtub.

Maybe she thought she'd die if
she fell into that much water.

Oh, right. Sorry, Suu.

You can apologize to her later.

Why did you run away?

You're not allowed outside
without me, remember?

And you took Suu... chan with you.

Well, you were going to arrest Suu!

She hasn't done anything wrong!

That's not entirely true.

I nearly died.

That happens all the time!

But the Interspecies Exchange Bill...

In any case, I'll protect Suu!

Protect her?

Protect?

Hey, bird lady!

We're playing with water g*ns.

Come play with us, bird lady!

Papi, do you know them?

The bird lady plays with us all the time.

Oh, you're the girl from...

Wait, "all the time"?

Yeah. We played with her yesterday!

Papi, you've been sneaking out by yourself?

But why are you so popular?

Run!

Now you've done it!

Wait up!

Hey!

I caught you!

So that's what those pervy kids are after.

Regardless, Papi is a
surprisingly good caretaker.

She tried to protect Suu, too.

Maybe she has powerful maternal instincts.

Hey, don't do that!

Hey, you—

What are you doing?

I get it. If she absorbs enough
water, she gets bigger.

But why is she making herself bigger?

She's copying Papi.

Do me next!

No, me!

I'd like a turn, please!

S-Stop!

There's water in my nose!

Take this!

Run!

After them!

H-Hey...

Master, I believe we should turn her over
to Lady Smith as soon as possible.

It seems like she's just having fun, though...

Nice wheels, right?

Nothing beats an American ride.

This thing is insane.

Oh, sh*t!

Watch out!

Are you okay?

Suu saved the girl.

She used her own body to
absorb the impact of the truck.

That was so cool, Suu!

Slime lady...

Thank you!

But are you okay, Suu?

What? You're stuck to
the wall and can't move?

Suu!

It's slipping...

I can't hold on with my hands.

If Suu falls into the river, she'll...

Papi.

Thank you.

Suu...

I'm okay.

Papi.

Suu!

That was close.

Master!

Papi.

Suu! Suu!

I'm okay. I'm okay.

Suu!

I'm okay. I'm okay.

What?! You're going to keep
her here for a while?!

Don't sound so surprised.

There's nothing to worry about.

She's not a bad girl.

She's just a little short on common sense.

But Master, it will be too
late once something happens!

I don't want to report her when
she hasn't done anything.

We just need to teach her
some common knowledge.

Yes, but...

But...

It'll be fine.

Just think of her as a child.

A child...

Daddy! Mommy!

Father! Mother!

I suppose we have no choice, then.

Wh-What was I thinking?

Despite being my master's servant,

I had an imprudent fantasy!

Just make sure Smith-san
doesn't find out, you two.

Okay!

Do they really get it?

Oh, right.

Huh? What?

I'm home now, so I'm hanging up.

I'm home.

Smith-san's here right now,

so when you come home,
make sure she doesn't find out...

Er... Huh?

I am the mermaid Meroune Lorelei.

Starting today, I will be
living here on a homestay.

Species 5
"Everyday Life with a Mermaid"

It's a pleasure to meet you, Master.
