Olivia thought of this and suddenly said, "Alice Ashford."

Louis' expression remained unchanged as he watched Rimuru digest the magic waste with great interest.

Instead, the Marquis of York looked at the little swan in confusion, not quite understanding why Olivia mentioned the daughter of the Earl of Ashford.

"No reaction? Did I really misunderstand?"

If Louis was really reborn like her, he shouldn't have no reaction at all.

Alice Ashford, that was one of Louis's mortal enemies in his previous life.

To be precise, before Louis relied on Greedy Feast to elevate his career level to Legend, he was often suppressed by the Crimson Sword King.

Well, to say it's suppression is a nice word.

He was even beaten in his early years.

Calculating the time, it will be about a month later.

But seeing that Louis had no reaction at all, it seemed that I was really overthinking it.

Little Swan had no idea that the Louis she knew would never write the news of his defeat directly in his diary.

Even if he was blasted to pieces by the twelve-ring magic, he would still have his mouth open and shout "I didn't lose".

But the current Louis has not inherited any memory of the original owner.

It would be strange to have PTSD.

At this time, Louis was thinking about a problem.

This large amount of magical waste seems... not necessarily without a solution.

Calculating the time, it was about 19 years later that the original owner, who was then Emperor Enser, received a research report from the White Tower Mage.

It is a study on the slime population.

Generally speaking, there are three growth paths for slimes.

LV1 Slime.

——It is also the most common and largest slime.

LV2-10 heterochromatic slime.

——Most of them are special species that have evolved to adapt to the environment. Their harmfulness varies and adventurers need to clean them up regularly. If left alone, they may spread and become a beast disaster.

LV11-20 giant slime.

——A highly dangerous monster that is capable of causing extensive damage to a city.

Going further up, there is the kingdom of slime that only exists in legend, also called the Slime King.

Logically speaking, the evolution process from the lowest level slime to the different colored slime, giant slime, and slime king is clear and organized.

Logically speaking, it is not uncommon for ordinary sorcerers to use it as a magical pet.

But why do few people keep it as a magical pet?

There are three reasons:

1. The method of upgrading Giant Slime and Kingdom Slime is unknown.

2. For unknown reasons, the giant slime cannot be directly contracted as a summoned beast.

3. The Kingdom Slime is a legendary level scourge and cannot be defeated.

However, in the year 14469 of the Stellar Calendar, an accident occurred in the area where the White Tower cultivated the colored slimes separately.

The cause was the carelessness of a wizard, which allowed the individual slimes that were originally cultivated in separate areas to tear open the isolation fence and escape into the sewers of Enther.

These slimes were originally intended to be used as a "control group" for evolutionary conditions, similar to the hybrid rice control, and there were tens of thousands of them.

If left unchecked, they could pose a danger to the city.

However, when the mages arrived and prepared to deal with the accident, they found that the huge group of slimes had disappeared, and only a giant slime was found in the sewer.

At this point, the key to the birth of giant slimes was finally discovered.

It's not about evolving by eating any precious materials.

The material needed for evolution... is one's own kind.

Let more than 10,000 LV1 slimes devour each other, so that their cores can combine with each other, and eventually they will aggregate into a giant creature like a giant slime.

This also explains why the mages have not been able to figure out the conditions for the Alien Slime to evolve into the Giant Slime no matter what method they use.

Because no one is crazy enough to let 10,000 slimes devour each other, it is normal to have a control group for comparison.

Even in nature, it is rare for tens of thousands of slimes to gather together and devour each other, so no one has ever witnessed the birth of a giant slime.

The reason why the spellcasting mage couldn't contract with the giant slime was also figured out.

...Contracting a contract with a giant slime is equivalent to contracting with 10,000 ordinary slimes at once. It would be strange if it could succeed.

Contracting 10,000 slimes at once? This is not something an ordinary magician can do.

What was the first thing the original owner did after receiving the news? That's right, he directly ordered the White Tower to block the news, and bought most of the rare slime individuals on the market, ready to make a fortune by relying on the information gap! He is indeed the embodiment of greed.

Of course, none of this matters to Louis.

More importantly, he has the opportunity to upgrade Rimuru to a giant slime.

As long as Rimuru can maintain his own characteristics and be promoted to a giant slime, his digestive ability will definitely not be matched by ordinary slimes.

only……

Will exposing the Slime's advancement route 19 years in advance have some unpredictable impact?

The next moment, Louis nipped this idea in the bud.

With a future diary, what is there to fear? If you don't act now, will you regret it when you are on the guillotine?

Let’s do it! Beatrice, who happened to hear the news, rushed over at this time. Louis rushed over and said, “Beatrice, I want to talk to you about something.”

Beatrice, with a frown on her face, saw Louis walking towards her and couldn't help but look over.

His frown relaxed a little, and he smiled and said, "Thanks to you two for discovering this matter in time. Otherwise, if it had really gone as the villain wished, I'm afraid I would be very troubled."

"I'm glad I could help you. By the way, there are something I want to talk to you about."

Beatrice blinked. "Go ahead. I can temporarily serve as your wishing lamp. Whatever you want, as long as it does not violate the principles, I will find a way to get it for you."

If this matter had not been discovered early, she dared not even think about the consequences.

So even though she discovered the problem, she felt a lot more relaxed, and could even be said to be happy.

Louis took a breath of cold air.

As soon as these words came out, [Sin: Greed] began to stir again.

He waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about this. Let's talk about serious matters first."

After much thought, Louis decided to secretly tell Beatrice about the giant slime.

Beatrice never expected that she had already made preparations and directly took the magical waste to the suburbs to deal with it with the explosion.

As soon as I got there, I heard the solution from Louis.

Her eyes lit up slightly. "The giant slime's advancement is so special? If this information works well, hiss... Louis, you've been a great help."

"It's a good thing I can help you." Louis said seriously.

My first wife is here, who dares to accuse me of ruining the country?

Besides, the sooner she knows it, the sooner the value of this information can be realized.

Beatrice would not owe him anything.

Huh? Louis suddenly found that Beatrice approached him, and she circled the succubus's tail with her fingertips with ill intentions, and said with narrowed eyes:

"My fiancé, you should have protected your tail well and didn't let anyone touch it, right?"

Louis coughed. The touch was wonderful.

He quietly pulled his tail back: "You are the first."

Louis fell into deep thought.

I always feel that my wife has an inexplicable obsession with her tail.

"If you want something, the Wishing Lamp is waiting for you." Beatrice grabbed the tail again, rubbed it slowly with her palm, and said with some dissatisfaction, "Don't let the lamp wait impatiently. Treasures, delicacies, rare items are all fine, or..."

She leaned forward and whispered in his ear:

"Or does my prince want something astringent?"

Louis gasped.

This kind of thing...

Hmm? It seems quite tempting.

Fortunately, he suppressed his willpower.

He shook his head, clearing the charming emotions in his mind, and said with a clear purpose:

"No, if I really want to talk about it, I'll have to leave the training of my slime to Your Highness."

Beatrice lifted his chin with her fingertips: "Hmm? Did you forget something?"

"…Beatrice, thank you for your help."

The first wife chuckled and said, "Scream more. I like to hear it. After all, my little prince can not only help me maintain my eyes, but also relax my ears."

Louis: ??? I am not eye drops or white noise to help you sleep? (End of this chapter)
