The Beast Tamer Is A Slime

[Quick! Cover me with your body so that the other hooman won't see my special effect!] 

[Aye, aye, ancestor!]

The conscientious "contracted beast" immediately held the slime on his palm and turned around facing the wall, blocking everyone's sight with his broad back. 

Since he had decided to make full use of this unfortunate event, John spared no effort and even threw away his dignity just to serve this ancestor. 

Once John's body completely blocked the little slime from everyone's eyesight, Neo immediately activated the skill he wanted to use. 

DING! [Borrow For Eternity] skill is activated. 

[Borrow For Eternity] 

(Skill level: S) 

A soft white halo swallowed Neo's whole body and the next second, the slime suddenly changed into a robber costume, with a mask on its face and a huge sack on its back. 

Then, the robber slime laughed like a villain and snatched a tiny phantom man's money, instantly making the tiny man cry on the spot! 

"Your skill is mine!" The slime even had a voice-over with the voice of a rough man. 

The slime acted all this self-directed drama without changing expression, not feeling embarrassed at all. 

But John almost curled his toe and bangs his head to the wall. 

Really. The system deserved to die!! 

After the ridiculous robbery drama with a slime as the main character, a blue system panel appeared in front Neo, urging him to choose a skill to copy. 

Neo didn't hesitate to choose [Attack Is The Best Defense] skill and the next second, the same skill appeared on his personal system panel. 

This time, the system opened a new column called [Acquired Skills], which stored skills that the awakened hunter acquired or mastered outside of their basic and personal skills. 

After making sure that he got the skill, Neo wasn't in a hurry to test the efficiency of the skill. 

He started to discuss things with John instead. 

[Hooman, I still have one more beast slot here. Should I save it for other dungeon beasts, or choose one of our companions?] 

Neo honestly told John about his private assessment of the other hunters and the more John listened, the more his face twisted. 

Haha. Thanks for picking him among his teammates. He's soooo honored. 

John didn't give any advice this time and actually acted mysterious in front of Neo. 

[I have a candidate in mind, but you need to see and experience it yourself so that you will be convinced.] 

Just when Neo's head was full of question marks from John's mysterious suggestion, the group of hunters started to make a fuss. 

It was mainly Tom. 

"Hey, hey, hey, I'm hungry! Can anyone here cook? Or do you guys bring some dry rations?" 

Obviously, Tom disdained to eat dry rations and hoped that someone among the other hunters brought some kind of materials to cook a hot meal for him. 

The trio Lina-Remy-Daniel plus John, all rolled their eyes at Tom, but then, Remy subconsciously pointed at Charlie. 

"He can cook. He is especially stuffed into our team not only to become a porter and a cleaner, but also to cook for us!" 

When Charlie heard what Remy said, he didn't shrink from his responsibility and immediately assured Tom, who was looking at him with eyes full of distrust. 

"I-i can cook! Wait, let me collect the raw materials first." 

Charlie acted as if there was a fire on his b*tt and in no time, he ran away, leaving behind the five hunters. 

Tom, who was new to the team, looked at the other four people with confusion. 

"Why did he run away? Don't you guys bring the raw materials with you?" 

Otherwise, what would they eat? 

The four hunters, including John, just kept their mouths shut and deliberately ignored Tom's question. 

They all started to do their own things, either checking their spoils and helping Charlie deal with the rest of the slime corpses, or simply sharpening their weapons. 

The ignored Tom pursed his lips in embarrassment and secretly cursed the four hunters fiercely. 

Damn you, District 9 people. You dare to be so arrogant in front of this young master! 

Tom felt that he was wronged. 

If not for he was so unlucky and awakened as an F-rank hunter with only a C-rank potential, he would not have been sent to World District 9. 

It was also annoying that his guild in World District 8 obeyed his family's order and abandoned him at this waste disposal site. 

Tom gritted his teeth and patiently waited for Charlie to come back, only to see the guy bringing a bunch of rocks, weeds and mushrooms! 

Tom widened his eyes in disbelief and almost spat on Charlie's face. 

"What are you doing? Do you really want to cook weed and mushrooms??" 

Who knew if those weeds and mushrooms would have a strange effect because they lived in the slime dungeon? 

Tom thought that it would be better to eat the slime corpses directly after steaming it in a pot. 

Charlie scratched his cheeks awkwardly but didn't try to explain to Tom. 

On the other hand, he quickly set up a simple pot that he brought to the dungeon inside his backpack. 

Other hunters brought special containers, while he brought pots and pans. 

The young man quickly set up a fire with a lighter and once the pot heated up, he added water from a slime corpse. 

Yes. He actually used the slime corpse's liquid residue to replace water! 

Then, the young man calmly threw weeds, mushrooms and even rocks into the boiling pot! 

Neo looked at Charlie's action with twitching eyes. 

[Hooman, are you sure what he cooks is edible? The slime corpse's residue liquid is corrosive, you know? Won't you all die of food poisoning?] 

Adding weeds and mushrooms were okay, but rocks? What the hell! 

Who would eat rocks? Even he, a slime, didn't want to eat rocks if he could eat other things!
