“Agh, turn the lights off, just 5 more minutes.”
…
I suddenly open my eyes from my own groans.
This is… I feel … odd?
Just 5 more minutes? I... that doesn’t sound like me, what does that even mean? Yet it doesn’t feel unnatural.
“Oh well!”
I shrug my worries away and got up on my feet and started some morning stretches.
“Ahh such a beautiful morning.” I said while stretching my back.
“the sun is out, birds are chirping, the trees dancing and-”
I take in a deep breath, “this refreshing forest air, nothing can be more soothing than this. You can never get this kind of fresh air in the city.”
...
In the city? I never came from a city, wait, I did live in a city, wait… what’s going on? My memory is playing up? No that can’t be possible. But it doesn’t feel unnatural at all, but it feels weird just like the moment I woke up.
“Agh, ok ok!”
I quickly slap my cheeks and cleared my mind.
“Fuuuu.”
I took another deep breath and breathed out.
Ok first, I started feeling weird this morning, my memories feels jumbled up. Let’s backtrack to yesterday.
So I arrived at the plains after starving for a week and ate a slime...
“Oh that's right!”
I just remembered, this odd voice popped into my head after I ate the slime and I planned to check my status after I slept.
“Let’s see let’s see.”
I pulled open my own status window in my mind, going over and looking for changes, I notice Otherworldly Knowledge and Blessing of God added. These were exactly the same as what was mentioned by the systematic sounding voice.
I look into what the Otherworldly Knowledge meant first.

//Otherworldly Knowledge - Knowledge obtained from a person belonging to a complete different world named Earth. The knowledge includes anything and everything the person has experienced before their death, their memories, as well as the person’s personality. Any being obtaining the knowledge will retain their own original knowledge, memories and personality and take on the additional knowledge, memories and personality creating a mix.
Special note: The skill is unique and can be passed on if the being holding the skill is consumed.//
I see, so this is why I obtained this odd skill, this also explains the odd feelings I’ve had since I woke up. So basically I have 2- no 3 personalities and memories mixed together…
“NOOOO!”
I clutch my head in thought.
Wait wait wait wait wait wait.
Does that mean I’m part slime now? I gained personalities and memories of a slime?

Only someone with a knowledge of magic might be able to to help him, but sorcerers are nearly extinct in the world. Two brothers remain, however; the last of their once-noble kind, holed up in a secluded valley, waging their own private and very personal war.
