I Was Reincarnated As An Instructor In An R18 Game... - Chapter 119
As I reached the gate, crowds of people and carriages were frantically pouring in.
The soldiers were trying to keep people calm and prevent any incidents.
But some were so panicked they ignored the soldiers and rushed into the capital.
I pushed through the crowd and approached the gate, calling out to a familiar face.
“Captain! What’s the situation?!”
“Lord Reid! Why are you here!? You need to evacuate!”
“Forget that, just tell me what’s happening!”
“Damn! There are still many wagons on the road! Behind them, blue monsters! They keep multiplying and won’t stop!!”
I held out my hand to stop the captain who tried to hold me back, and looked outside the gate.
The captain raised his voice so it wouldn’t be drowned out by the noise and explained.
Despite the rain, many wagons came toward the capital today, too many for the gate guards to handle.
They sent subordinates to summon reinforcements and rang the bell after hearing the scouts’ reports.
Hearing that, I slipped past the captain and ran out the gate.
That vast sea of blue on the horizon was entirely Blue Slimes.
The captain followed me in a hurry, then turned to where I was looking and spoke regretfully.
“They look like slimes, but magic doesn’t work! They absorb matter and multiply! There’s no visible core! What can we do!?”
“Calm down! They absorb mana to multiply! Don’t use magic!”
“Lord Reid, you know about those things!?”
I nodded, took something out of the magic bag, and tossed it to the captain.
Holding it with both hands, the captain glanced at the item with a surprised expression before meeting my gaze.
“If they get close to the castle gate, smear that on your weapons and attack! Absolutely no magic, got it!? I’ll borrow a horse!”
“W-wait, Lord Reid!?”
“I’m heading to the front lines!”
I borrowed a nearby horse, mounted it, and rode toward the blue slimes.
I steered slightly away from the flow of carriages and people and pulled my bow from the magic bag.
For this event, it’s established that the royal capital doesn’t have detailed knowledge about Blue Slimes.
In reality, thorough information is recorded in the documents of both the academy and the royal capital.
However, for some reason, it’s missing at this time.
If it’s just the event’s plot convenience, then fine, but it’s really troublesome.
I let out a big sigh, steeled myself, and urged the horse forward.
Thanks to the horse, it took less than ten minutes to get close enough to see the blue slimes.
In the distance, I spotted the last carriage and the soldiers battling around it.
I could tell they were soldiers because they wore silver armor.
“Aaaah!! Help me, please!!”
Turning my head toward the scream, I saw a soldier being engulfed from the legs by a blue slime, reaching out and shouting toward me.
It was larger than a normal slime, but a translucent blue.
Even though he wore armor, the soldier was being absorbed by the blue slime.
This is the worst, it’s like horror, really!
I immediately coated the arrowhead with something, drew the bow, and released the arrow.
The moment the arrow struck, the blue slime vanished with a splash and a popping sound.
Only the slime’s bodily fluid remained, and it was incredibly sticky.
The soldier quickly checked his legs, then hurriedly stood up and ran toward me.
His face was a mix of relief and lingering terror.
It must have been that terrifying.
I was scared just watching; for him, it must have been even worse.
“You saved meeeee!! Thank you! Thank you!!”
“Ah, no problem! What’s the situation!?”
“Quite a few of my comrades got killed! Damn! We don’t know where their cores are!”
“Can you use light magic!?”
“I can’t use it! But my comrades… my comrades should be able to!”
“I’ll put it simply! Shine light magic on the blue slime; the part that glows is the core! Do NOT use any other magic, got it!?”
“W-what!? Hey!?”
I glanced sideways at several soldiers who seemed to be this soldier’s comrades rushing over, and raised my voice.
I left the confused soldier behind and spurred my horse toward what seemed to be the last carriage.
Blue Slimes are in a different class from normal slimes; it’s not just that their color is different.
They absorb magical power and continue to multiply, absorbing enemies inside their bodies to increase even more.
The reason the core’s position is unknown is because the core is the same color as the blue slime and blends in.
It is not that the core does not exist; it simply cannot be seen.
While riding the horse, I surveyed the blue slimes swarming all around and noticed my mood lifting a bit.
While doing free play, I usually couldn’t match times with friends and often went by myself to challenging locations or to face monsters.
Maybe because I got used to it, I stopped inviting friends often, and solo play became my default.
As a result, I started investigating the monsters, their weak points, behavior, and how to handle them.
For this reason, I am fairly knowledgeable about monsters and aware of their weak points.
Naturally, not every monster, but those related to the events I am familiar with I should be able to manage.
“It’s rough not being fully equipped…”
I muttered aloud and ended up chuckling to myself.
The wriggling mass of blue slimes looked disgusting from horseback.
Compared to this, Silver Wolves are much cuter.
Those don’t look this disgusting, after all.
While helping the soldiers being attacked, I approached the last carriage and focused my eyes.
There, a blue-haired boy was about to have one arm absorbed by a blue slime.
Come to think of it, this guy came to the capital!
I immediately took my bow, nocked an arrow, and fired; the blue slime hit by the arrow burst and disappeared.
“Pull him quickly! Slimes are going to swarm you soon!”
“Yes!! Instructor!!”
Startled by the voice coming back, I widened my eyes to see a purple-haired boy pulling the blue-haired boy behind him.
What, why are these two together?
No… confirming where they met up comes afterward.
Foria and the others were also there, hidden in the shadows on the otherside of the carriage.
Seeing Foria and the others, I let out a relieved breath and shouted while continuing to shoot arrows.
“Do not use magic! They absorb magical power and multiply!”
“Reid-san!?”
“Its instructor!”
“Alright! Our odds of surviving just increased!”
“Instructor said not to use magic!”
I was relieved to see the adventurers looking well, then quickly pulled myself together.
I got off my horse and approached the carriage, noticing the family crest and my cheek twitched.
This doesn’t make sense, it’s way too crazy!
Why, why is the royal family’s carriage appearing in this event!?
The carriage door opened slightly, and a girl with shining blonde hair and a noble air peeked her face out.
Alerias Libertonia, the first princess of the Kingdom of Libertonia.
“Reid-sama?”
“!? Please forgive my rudeness! Hurry and escape now!!”
“…Reid-sama, what do you intend to do?”
“Your highness!”
Princess Alerias tried to say something, but the soldiers quickly shut the door.
Of course, showing her face at a time like this would surely get her scolded.
She’s a tomboy princess no matter how much time passes.
I told the soldiers to hurry and leave, then spoke to Foria who rushed to me.
“Foria, can you use light magic? Just shining it will be fine!”
“I can use it, but what do you want to do?”
“Illuminate the blue slime, I’m counting on you!”
“Wait!?”
I release an arrow into the swarm of approaching Blue Slimes and move closer to Roy, lowering my gaze.
The blue-haired boy, Hilbide, grimaced in fear, shaking violently.
He is Roy’s rival and the one who poaches students from the academy.
I pull something from my magic bag and hand it to Roy, who is glaring at the Blue Slimes with a serious expression.
Roy hastily receives it with both hands, tilting his head and looking up at my face.
“Roy, escape with the carriage! If the Blue Slimes get close, apply that and attack. It will explode like my attack!”
“…Understood!”
“Sorry, I know you have questions, but just forgive me for now. Go!”
Roy attempts to help Hilbide to his feet, but he is unable to stand, likely because his legs have given out.
I call out to a nearby adventurer, handing over my bow and having them shoot instead.
I carry Hilbide in a princess carry and run toward the carriage with Roy.
We hurry toward the carriage, but internally, I’m shocked by the sensation in my hand holding Hilbide.
He must have tightly wrapped cloth around himself, but I can tell by the sensation when I touch him.
Hilbide… you were a girl!?
