"It worked..." Tom muttered, struggling to accept the operation's success just like that.
The slime on his shoulder... was still there!
As if in response to his feelings, the slime turned bright pink, wiggling around like some kind of oversized tit.
'So you are happy as well,' Tom thought, raising his fingers and gently patting the slime.
It was a strange feeling. All the way until now, Tom believed that outside of a few glorious examples, all the monsters were only the targets to be eradicated. The obstacles on his way to the dungeon's stones or to his attempts at crossing over to their other side.
But with the slime happily wiggling on his shoulder right now, he couldn't really look at the monsters in the same way ever again.
