Bab 730: Slimy

"Who?" the slime suddenly turned around, its googly eyes staring at Ning.

"What's… going on?" Ning looked at the two, not sure whether to be angry or confused.

"Teacher? Teacher!" the princess shouted the moment she saw Ning. "Teacher, look, look. I ranked up."

"Huh?" Ning turned to the princess and checked her rank. As he did, his eyes narrowed in surprise. "Rank 3? How?" 

"Slimy gave me spiritual energy," the princess said.

"Don't call me slimy. I told you to call me master," the slime said.

"No! You're slimy," the princess said and started laughing on her own.

Ning couldn't process the situation at the moment, so he instead went up to the princess and checked whether something was wrong with her or not.

She was mostly fine, aside from being dirty from playing on the ground. Although, now that Ning properly did check the floor, it was mostly hard-wood that he was standing on. That didn't seem like a place one could get so dirty.
