"Elis... that forest is over a hundred kilometers wide, and it's filled with dangerous creatures.
I want to make it to the other side in one piece, not get torn apart halfway through. I don't think it's possible to cross all that distance in just fifteen minutes," Leon said seriously, glancing at Elis with a doubtful look.
"Prrr... Prrr...?"
"Prrr... Prrr..."
The slime and Elis started communicating again, exchanging soft, strange noises between them.
They continued their conversation for nearly two full minutes and suddenly Elis turned towards him.
"Master, the slime says it has crossed the entire forest within fifteen minutes before—without encountering any dangers during this time of day.
It also claims that all the truly dangerous monsters only come out at night. The slime is asking for your trust, Master,
It says, if you trust it... You will be able to cross the forest within 15 minutes." Elis explained calmly, her face completely neutral.
