Honey Night Bright 136: D49.
Honey Night Bright The ti was nearing Dawn Break.
The moisture in the forest condensed due to the temperature change, enshrouding it in white mist.
The darkness of the night gently faded like a light veil being lifted, half-lit and unclear.
A few drops of dew had condensed on the tips of the girl’s hair and the tip of her nose, the morning chill causing her delicate eyebrows to furrow slightly.
The forest, silenced by the Hero’s rampage the previous night, slowly ca to life again with the chirping of birds in the dim light.
The first ray of dawn pierced through the leaves, tinting the mist with color.
——The sun had risen.

Curled up under the tree among the fallen leaves, the Hero slightly furrowed her brow at the chill penetrating her skin and the distinctly unsoft feeling of her makeshift bed, then opened her eyes.
Although her Constitution had almost reached a point of being unbothered by the cold or heat, and she herself wasn’t picky about sleeping arrangents, that didn’t an she had beco a tin person who felt nothing.
Her skin was still soft; wearing too much would feel hot, too little, and she would feel cold.
Yet, these sensations wouldn’t affect her physical activities, nor would they cause her any sickness.
Perhaps if she beca even stronger, those sensations might weaken, but for now, the Hero just uncomfortably opened her eyes.
‘Indeed…
because I overused Magic Power, so—’
Her head was still shrouded in a vague, dull pain; recalling her actions from yesterday, a late sense of tension and regret began to creep into her heart.
Even she knew that passing out in a forest in the wild was not at all safe.
Even if a Familiar was present to protect her—
…Huh?
She blinked her Erald Eyes in confusion.

And she did not know that one of her predecessors, due to fighting with other Magic Creatures and causing an explosion, plunged the entire Kingdom into darkness.
The Sli King (`・ω・′) was shaking its shimring blue body.
[Sli King (`・ω・′) uses Splitting Mimic]
[Sli King’s Mimicry (Wisdom Species 10, Spellcasters 10)]
D80 20=d80(34) 20=54
The round Sli King transford into a flat puddle, and then, the liquid body rose, shaping into the form of the Hero and the Gleaming Scale Serpent above.
Although the mimicry was exquisitely detailed, even replicating the Hero’s intricate details, the deep blue and transparent body composition fully exposed its Identity.
And this blue, Transparent “she” was staring at herself sowhat blankly.
The girl woke up under the light of the dawn, unaware of the scene in the Sli King’s eyes.
‘…Is this, a Sli?’
Realizing the true nature of the other, the Hero made a peculiar face.
Although it was blue and Transparent, having a third-person perspective of her original form was still unusual…
and all this in a forest on the outskirts.
Her cheeks flushed slightly, her lips parted, but no sound ca out.
‘What happened last night?’ The Hero mouthed, trying to inquire, then helplessly massaged her throat.
She had forgotten again; she couldn’t speak, and she didn’t bring her notebook and Feather Pen…
and Slis probably couldn’t read either, right?
However, the empathetic Sli King seed to perceive the Hero’s confusion, fluidly transforming its body, vividly mimicking how it ca here, and how the Gleaming Scale Serpent had guarded her.
No, your performance isn’t an issue, but can’t you let wear my clothes for the act?
And why does this big Sli act so familiar with ?
The Hero, stifling her inward embarrassnt, turned her head and cast a questioning look towards the Gleaming Scale Serpent beside her, but the serpent seed equally confounded.
Watching this, the Sli King blinked its transparent Blue Eyes.
The bond between Humankind and Magic Creatures is truly fascinating.
[Can the Sli King speak?

“Pururulu—”
After finishing its act, the Sli King vibrated what approximated human vocal folds.
But as expected, it couldn’t replicate the organs fully and ended up blowing bubbles, allowing the Magic Elent to dissipate into the air.

Anyway, after the Sli King’s performance, the Hero also understood what had happened last night.
“Pururulu—”
“Ssssss—”
And one must say, although the Sli King only copied the Hero’s appearance, it indeed captured so human essence on a certain level.
Even the nonverbal Hero, by observing its expressions, movents, and tone, more or less understood what it was trying to communicate.
It could also be due to her unique sensibilities since normally Humankind couldn’t read information from Magic Elent.
But with the translation help from the Gleaming Scale Serpent on the side, the interaction between the Hero and the Sli was orderly, she occasionally nodded in response and gestured back with her hands.
‘It says, Queen, you have a very nice scent on you.’
‘It’s the first ti it has seen a human like you.’
‘So, it wants to be with you—’
With what?
