I’ve Been Reincarnated as a Tentacle Slime~ I Want to Live a Comfortable, Secure Life and Do Whatever I Want~ - Chapter 13

Today, I made sure not to repeat my previous mistakes, so I focused on clearing the Monster House before planning my next move.

“Alright, next is the 6th floor. The first monster there is going to be tough…”

As I descended through the black gate, I read the sign I check every time. It mostly said the same things, but there was one important note.

“Hmm… it says, [The next floor, is a water area. Water-type monsters inhabit the area, and they may use water magic.] Magic, huh… I hope I can use it if I consume them.”

My gloomy mood lifted, and I descended to the lower floor with renewed enthusiasm.

The water area was a bit different from the previous areas. It was still a maze, and the ceiling was about 5 meters high, but the floor was submerged by about 1 meter. By the way, the safety area with the white gate was exposed above ground like an island.

I decided not to enter the water and instead took my wolf form, sticking to the ceiling to begin my exploration.

◆◆◆◆◆◆◆

As I continued my exploration, I discovered a monster. It looked like a snake. If I change the part where it coils around me into a spear, I should be fine. While thinking about how to fight the snake without getting close, a sudden blue magic circle appeared, and a ball of water flew towards me.

I instinctively blocked with my shield, and my excitement soared at the sight of the magic I had never seen before.

“Awesome! Give me that magic!”

I approached the snake on purpose to be grabbed. As expected, the snake coiled around me, trying to strangle me. But it had no effect on my soft-bodied form, and following my plan, I skewered the snake and consumed it.

I acquired [Swimming], [Water Magic], and [Fire Resistance]. Since I don’t often get the chance to swim, I probably won’t use [Swimming] much. [Fire Resistance] is really helpful since slimes are weak to fire. And, I managed to gain the main ability of [Water Magic], but I didn’t quite understand how to use it. If I imagine the water bullet from earlier, I can shoot a water bullet. But that’s about it.

“Is this all I can do because its level is so low?”

To level up my skills, I went around hunting snakes. When I tested if water magic worked on them, the snake created a water wall to block the water bullets. After that, I was able to use water walls as well.

“So, I guess I can only use magic that I’ve seen before.”

After that, the snake didn’t use any new magic, so I think the snake only has these two types of magic.

I found a black gate and went looking for the Monster House, but I couldn’t find one on this floor. So, I created a 20x50m Monster House near the white gate and ended today’s exploration.
