Does anyone know more of manga of this type? I mean cozy fantasy. I don't mind isekai.

 

[pandatime]

Ah yes Slimes and cleaning trash iconic. Did get a chuckle on the "still a little big" after the first cleaning.

Unironically a lot of the cozy fantasy manga have slimes you could probably just search slime on manga dex and find a bunch.

Do the monsters only available as a summon from that ritual conducted by the army? I can somewhat understand if it does cause the lack of knowledge they have about the monsters. But it still weird that there's no institution (especially an official one from the country) that does research on the monsters.

I mean "wowzers hell yeah, monsters. They all looks different surely they does things differently too. Let's find out". And judging from MC's future, it seems like they still hadn't done any research about it.

 

[Sakidornis]

Unless they state otherwise that slime is a rare monster despite being widely known as one of the weakest... It's kinda hard to believe that people haven't found out by now that they can be used to dispose of garbage.

isekai 118 my review? better that 52 percent of isekais ive seen, because it starts out cozy for a bit, but because of the title im not confident that it will stay this quailty for long, my guess is by about capter 5-10 the slime gets op

It's as inevitable as an adventurer guild, isn't it?

There are many things in these Jap fantasy stories that make no sense, but we've learnt to just go with the motions.
For an instance, it makes as much sense for the government to not only allow, but force every citizen to have their own summoned-being, without the ability to limit them. That's like giving everyone a gun, and only taking up the guys who summoned a rifle or a bazooka, while letting those who got a handgun run loose. It makes as much sense as superhero societies functioning, when a building falls every day or so.

In Jap stories, we also came to accept that "Adventurers" are accepted, even though it heavily promotes individuality and the ability to easily abandon one country for another -- and worst of all -- it allows individuals to garner immense personal power, that is often times left unregulated and unchecked.
That's a long winded way to say ---- yyeeaaahh, it doesn't surprise me at all that this premise makes little sense once you think about it.

I'm just here hoping the "secret power of the slime" is to NOT turn into a loli, that's an actual power in these stories. It'd be trope subverting.

why is mc getting tired he hasnt done shit other than carry the slime around lmao

Okay so, let's do some math.

The slime looks no bigger than my Recco RFA-LEGGERO15 Air Fryer. So, let's say the slime can form a half sphere with radius 12cm. So, around 3619 cm³.

Assuming Water density that's barely above 3.6kg . That's like... a 10th of his weight, which doesn't sound like much to a grown adult but to a kid with no developed muscles is a lot, especially if he has to carry him everywhere for a working day.

Imagine going everywhere at your top speed with 8kg on top of you that you have to balance because it isn't in a bag or backpack, without lunch or breakfast (to replicate his lack of muscle) for 6 to 8 hours, I would be tired too!

I love that the slime drank the tea, he remembers too

"Adventurer's Guilds" were a thing in IRL history tho, they weren't adventurers but mercenaries, but the same basic idea applies. The nobles/royalty let it happen because they normally didn't have the training of knights and used to do things that would be "beneath" knights or just more dangerous.
I guess mercenary "guilds" normally didn't leave the country, and there were some that even operated in multiple countries (like The White Company), so in a world of monsters with magic being "common", it seems normal for such a thing to exist.

 

[ManBehindTheCurtain]

I love it. Something about MC being so in love with his summon from the get-go rather than later feels refreshing. But I have to ask; this slime isn't going to inevitably turn into a girl is it?

Thank You translators.

You are comparing potatoes with oranges.
Stories with "adventurers" usually feature "S-rank adventurers" that can level mountains, and more than not, we can see the guild-leader piss at nobles, all the way to the king.
When a commoner can get THAT STRONG, in both authority and in personal might -- it doesn't make sense for the ruling body to allow it.

P.S: I am also pretty sure "being a mercenary" is nothing like "being an adventurer".
A merc afaik, is a sword-hire, not a freelancer that is up to snuff on whatever, and has a convenient merc-ID, with an organization to back them up.

The White Company had a reputation and uniforms (which can work as ID), and they weren't all hired at once. Like people make quests, nobles and villages would hire these mercenary companies to do things that involved armed forces. Although I doubt individual contracts were popular, some free knights would roam around and take jobs alone or in small teams, not belonging to any group. Samurai for hire were also hired to do stuff like guard caravans/merchants.

I raise you this article talking about the White Company that is literally titled:

The White Company, Freelancers of the 14th Century​

While ‘freelancer’ today means independent contract workers, the original term referred to free knights like the mercenaries of the White Company or the ones that went around solo/in small teams.
To clarify tho, I'm not saying The White Company is the same as an Adventurer's Guild, just the closest we had IRL because "killing monsters" and "random odd jobs like cleaning the sewers" were either non-existent or done by people who did them as their profession.

In a world full of monsters, it makes sense for people to make Adventurer's Guilds, and when they do defy nobles/kings, they tend to be international so they can easily threaten to leave their country and let them deal with the monsters themselves.

About the "a Commoner being that strong" part, that's just fantasy, but it's not like the people in charge of the kingdom would know if a random person went to the mountains or go into a crypt and got super strong, and its better for the super strong person to be happy with you than angry at you.
And, in those worlds where 1 person can destroy a mountain, normally there are also monsters that can do the same or worse

Why didn't he just show the boss that his slime can eat garbage rapidly?
