The Small Sage Will Try Her Best In The Different World From Lv.1!-Chapter 35: High Five with Everyone!

Being the focus of everyone’s attention, the blue slime that was placed on the ground, Maximillian Jr., was wobbling.

“Now then, let’s measure your understanding of our wish!”

Karin-san said, and I watched over them cautiously while wondering just how she was going to do that. Apparently it was not only me, as the others were also holding their breaths while we were watching.

“Now, Maximillian Jr. [Hand]!”

Karin-san said as she crouched, smiling and extended her hand towards the slime. The blue slime continued to wobble.

“What’s the matter?! Give me your [hand].”

The slime was wobbling.

“Hey, hurry!”

The slime continued to wobble.

“Maximillian Jr., what’s wrong?”

The slime was…

“…Hm. It seems there’s no effect at all.”

No wait, I think that’s obvious, though?!

After all, slimes do not have hands, do they?!

“Karin…may I have a word with you?”

Amanda-san pressed her forehead as she called Karin-san with a low voice.

“What is it?”

“Do slimes have hands?”

“Amanda, what absurdity are you spewing? There’s no way slimes could have hands. Generally, slimes have jellylike round sphere form that makes them beautiful. You can say that it’s their flawless beauty. Despite that, it’s so sad that you don’t understand the magnificence of this form. This form, you see—”

“Stop, stop! What I wanted to talk about isn’t the slimes’ shape, but it’s the fact that they don’t have hands, so even if you asked for its [hand], it won’t be able to do it.”

“Hmph. So that’s it.”

Hearing Amanda-san’s words, Karin-san nodded and pointed at me.

Eh. M-me?!

I, the slime’s hand—

Ahh.

“The little girl there had asked [hand] from the slime. Therefore, it’s nothing that Maximillian Jr. can’t do.”

“Yuuri-chan did it?”

“Jou-chan, you did such an interesting thing.”

Argo-san and Frank-san who had been silent until now were surprised and looked at me.

Virna-san was speechless, but her ears were twitching.

Wait, wait. There’s an explanation to that!

Flustered, I pushed my hands forward.

“I didn’t actually ask for Purun’s hand, I was just instructing Noir.”

Noir is a magical beast, so it might be different from others, but Noir is still from the cat family at first glance, so I was wondering if it could give me its hand, so I tried it out.

Cats might not do a handshake, but I still wanted to test it out.

“Hey, Yuuri-chan. What is the [hand] command?”

“Eh?”

When I was asked that, I wonder if this world doesn’t keep any pet like dogs or cats?

Could it be that ordinary animals don’t exist because magical beasts exist?

If ordinary dogs don’t exist here…Yup. It might be a little bit too unreasonable to have magical beasts as pets.

I glanced up at Virna-san’s beast ears.

There is no custom of keeping animals as pets in this world, so I wonder if Virna-san likes Noir.

“Uhm. Hypothetically speaking, it’s when I extend the palm of my hand to Noir and then Noir reacts by placing its hand on top of mine, but…it hasn’t done it yet until now—huh? Eeh?!”

As I explained how to complete the [hand] command, Noir’s forefeet were placed on top of my hand!

“Amanda-san! It’s Noir’s first time giving me its hands! Uwaa, uwaa, I’m so happy! How cute!”

I reflexively hugged Noir and lifted it high up in the air.

Noir! How smart are you?!

“Little girl! Let me hear something about the slimes, not Noir!”

“Ah. That’s right.”

I hugged Noir closely as I stuck out my tongue and shrugged.

Ehehe. Since it’s the first time Noir managed to follow the [hand] command, I was unconsciously getting too excited.

“I’m sorry, Karin-san. U-hm, about that. At that time, I was dejected because Noir wouldn’t give me its hand, so Purun who was right beside me did the command in exchange.”

And the way it did the hand command was by nimbly bouncing and getting on top of my palm.

‘Eeh, that’s how the [hand] command works?!’ Everyone was surprised.

I thought that it might be just a coincidence but when I tried it again, it jumped on top of my palm again. Amazing, right?

I was unconsciously moved that I ended up bringing Purun with both hands like now and turned around.

“Why?! Why can this little girl’s slime do the [hand] command, while my Maximillian Jr. won’t do it?!”

“Perhaps that’s because I have a subjugation skill, and the level of the skill is quite high?”

“Didn’t you say earlier that if I were to give it a name, we would come to understand each other, little girl? Is it just a lie?”

“U-hmm…How should I put it? The subjugation skill is a skill that enables us to tame monsters. If we were to give the tamed monsters names using the skill, the monster’s power will be increased, and furthermore it seems to be able to understand what we’re saying…I mean, I feel like that’s the case.”

“How can we acquire the so-called subjugation skill?”

If you ask how we can acquire it, uhm…

“I think I acquired it the moment I tamed Noir, but I don’t understand. I managed to acquire it before I even noticed.”

“Before you even noticed, huh? …Hmph, then there’s a possibility that I have already acquired it. But the [hand] command didn’t succeed. …Why is that?”

“Uhm…maybe it’s because the level of your subjugation skill is still too low? How about we try to use commands that are easier to understand? For example, ride on my palm?”

“Let’s try it out.”

Karin-san crouched once more and extended her palm towards the slime.

“Maximillian Jr., ride on top of my palm.”

As Karin-san said it, Maximillian Jr. wobbled and wobbled before it did a big jump and rode on top of Karin-san’s palm. 𝒇𝑟e𝙚𝑤𝙚𝐛𝗻𝐨ν𝚎𝘭.c𝐨m
