A world where there is gods predicting the future, means free will is nonsense, but at least the cookies taste good right.
It doesn't read like predetermnation, more like a incredibly vague job description.A world where there is gods predicting the future, means free will is nonsense, but at least the cookies taste good right.
If we follow that logic, the fact Leon is famous for killing a dragon might be sus. What if Leon didn't kill a dragon and instead he was the dragon.I wonder. Could Leon possibly be something similar to Jelly and Lumir? Not really a slime, but another monster that was able to take over a human corpse. Can't really base this theory on anything, just a wild guess. But I think it would be interesting.
Also chief slime spotted on page 21!
It's foreshadowing, our venerated Saint Jelly will neg diff the Umbra Mole in one page and the mysterious hooded attacker will summon Chief Slime next.And of course the "village chief" of the slimes seemingly being a special type of monster is very intriguing as well.
That's more 'having human emotions' rather than 'knowing human emotions'. Though TBF, slimes might already have had empathy between themselves.There's so much of relevance happening in this chapter!
Jelly actually made a lot of progress in understanding and empathizing with humans by now (that part about not wanting to see Celestria means that she actually is much more knowledgeable about human emotions now than just very recently).
Hmmm...Then there's the fact that this book was absolutely just teleported in there by the goddess herself, so Celestria having had it at a young age actually is quite interesting.
My thought was that the book was a Monster Encyclopedia, and they just picked chief slime as an example of slime. But yeah, maybe an evolved slime.And of course the "village chief" of the slimes seemingly being a special type of monster is very intriguing as well.
