Life was always on the side of the rich. The rich lived happily while the poor suffered. I grew up in a slums in yangchen, capital of china year 100 BC of the Lunar calander. I was adopted by Assassins and trained to kill. This is my 52nd mission I'm 14 by the way names Rino. I grew up by that name because when I was little i beat up a pack of dogs and rino was the name of the devil. My codename is devil. I am your best man in poison, Silent assassination, Long distance kills, and espionage.

This mission I'm meant to kill the crown prince. Water Wind, this is the Water empire so his last name is water. The reason I'm being sent to kill him is for the reason of treason. The Crown prince, sold state secrets to the enemies under the disguise of a man that should have been alive today.

Wind was whistling in the rooftops as I ran across them. I Was approximately 100 meters away from the window I would jump through and stab a sword through my targets heart. The Night was beautiful under the stars and I wanted to get this done quick. I wanted to get back to Zilla. she was adopted with me but, unlike me she was nobility. 20 meters out of the the window I stop and look through the window. There are two silhouettes one of a man the other of a woman.

I didn't think much of it, ran and jumped through the window. I landed 3 inches away from the target when I had seen a familiar face. "Zilla" I said with my voice a little croaky as I had seen them mating the two of them connecting with their lower bodies.

"Your here." she said while covering her body up.

"Why are you fu*king with my kill target?" I said my voice acting as if I didn't believe it. "Come out guards" The prince yelled.

As he said that about 10 guards came and surrounded me pinning me to the floor. All of them looked angered and pissed then I noticed a face among the guards, it was the man who raised me, the man who turned me into a killing machine, Lin Park Do Hyuk. "Mr.Park why are you here?" I asked out of question. "isn't it obvious you little traitor?!" He yelled at me full of anger. "What do you mean?" I asked wondering what he meant. "You almost killed the leader of our organization!" He yelled. "Sir this man was the man Zilla told me to kill! She handed me the papers and said that someone had asked for me to do it!" I yelled half bewildered.

"BULLSHIT!" Lin yelled at me at a full voice. I was wondering what was happening scanning the crowd and then I found one person who was smiling through all this. Zilla.

"Enough cut this monsters head off."said the Leader of our organization. "Wait let me say something to him honey." Zilla said as she walked to me and bended. then she whispered to me " nice job my puppet but sorry I don't need you anymore... you liked me right?" I was shocked on how she knew "I used you, I used your kindness against you, from the beginning you were a disposable pawn at my finger tips."

My eyes widened at those words anger swelled up in me. It swelled up enough in me to allow me to use the final technique in my body Time expansion. It is a art that speeds up the body at a cost of it shutting down. When it activated I grabbed my knife from my pocket sleeve, Cut the throats of the two men who were holding my legs, cut the two men holding my arms in place in their muscles making their arms useless. Got up and ran to the window. I jumped and thought 'If I'm gonna die I'm gonna die the right way.' and seconds before I hit the ground the world around me went dark.

Endless darkness. Like an abyss. No this is an abyss

The darkness was going on forever I didn't know how long I had been there. If only I was strong enough I could have survived. was the only thought that ran through my mind. If only I could live another life. A life where I could do what I want.

"Do you want power?..." a voice resounded in the darkness. I freaked out when a black and white entity floated to me. "Do you want Power... young devil?" the voice sounded frail and weak like the entity was dying. "What's the point I'm dead." I said while looking down. "Death is a mere thought humans cooked up." The entity said looking at me as if it were looking at a creature that knew nothing.

"Power should be given to those who are strong, and have no fear of death." I said as I closed my eyes. When my eyes closed the entity forcefully jerked me. "power is useless... Only way to be powerful is to earn it." I said when the entity jerked me.

"If you want it that way fine." The entity then grabbed my head and forcefully injected its aura in me. "Great sage, Predator, Heat and Cold immunity, Stealth, Magic talent, pain removal. These are the gifts I give you to become powerful." As it was saying that I lost conscious at some point I awoke.

'Why can't I see anything, Why is my body blue. Why can't I talk or feel my body?' I said as I was freaking out inside my conscious. "Host cannot feel anything a human feels because host doesn't have those body parts." Said a mysterious voice in my head that sounded like a old man. 'GHOST! WHAT IS THAT?!' I yelled inside my inner thoughts. "I am the Great Sage ability in this world. My purpose is for information on anything in this world."

'If your a great sage than what am I?' I tried saying out loud but forgot I couldn't talk. "You are a slime the weakest creature in this world." The great sage said with no emotion. 'Weakest?' I thought 'Well what are those things she said before I passed out and what to they do?'

"Predator- A unique ability only you have

"What is this Magec?" I said with full understanding of the rest because of the explanation. "Magic is the thing that is all around us in this world." 'Okay, you said you know everything right?' I thought while seeing if I could move. "Yes". 'then can you teach me how to move?' I said in my mind sheepishly while thinking how the Great sage would react. "would host like information sent to head?" 'Yes?' I thought not knowing how sick I'd feel.

I tried making a jumping motion in this jelly like form and succeeded from where I landed I noticed the feeling of flowers. I asked the sage 'How do I use predator?' Because I wanted to eat them seeing if I could learn something about it. "The way to activate Predator is to just say the name in your mind or think about it.

After hearing the explanation I thought about using predator and Devoured the 12 flowers I had landed on they dissolved into my body. Don't know why just left it there. I travelled around like that for quite a while until I felt a presence. The sound of twigs and leaves snapping continued until I heard people talking "There are no monsters here Linger." said a voice. "Yeah but I'm not going back til I tame one." said the person supposedly called linger. The voices got louder and louder until they came out into what sounded like a clearing. 'Don't notice me, don't notice me.' I thought. The people searched around until they spotted a movement in the field. "MONSTER!" The man shouted. Out of panic I asked great sage 'What is the composition of the flower.'

"The flower is named Hypotic

it is a rare flower in this world it's composition is made of 13 things-

-Poison

-Antidote

-Body strengthening

If host were to eat this flower he would gain the abilities and skills

If the host were to absorb the properties of the flower host would most likely survive."

'whatever absorb it.' I yelled inside my thoughts.

Just as I absorbed the properties both the human sounding creatures came and I had seen their faces.

The woman was a beautiful blonde with brown eyes and a nice pair of Jingles. While the male was a nice tall broad shouldered man that looked like he wanted to kill me. He unsheathed his sword and was about to jump at me when I jump at the Lady and hid in the flowers behind her. "You scared it away Quo." The lady said. The lady was upset for him scaring me away. "We haven't met a monster that I wanted to catch all day heck we met no monster and the only one we found you scared a way." She said to me she sounded upset and angry. The man replied "I'm sorry madam, I was worried about your safety". While they were arguing I backed up and hit my plushy back on something hard and furry. When I turned around it was a big creature about 10 times my size. Me not knowing what to do I ran back to those two people bickering like a couple I did all I could to get their attention. When they noticed me they noticed the giant monster behind me. When they had seen the giant monster behind me their bodies froze up. Me not wanting to die or run stood in front of the group. When they all noticed I stopped the monster was still running at me. Now that I stopped I noticed the body shape of it it was like a wolf with a horn and a lightning red coat like it was drenched in blood. When it was in swiping distance of me it lifted it's paw up and swung at me when its claw hit me it tore me in three but what really scared me was how I wasn't dead but regenerating. The monster toppled over I was confused until I remembered what the Great sage had said 'Poisonous' I probably unconsciously activated it. The wolf was lying there on the floor dead "I suggest using predator on it." The great sage said. I did what it said I walked over to it.

I was wondering if it was still alive I checked it's pulse and noticed it wasn't breathing so I assumed it was dead. I presumed using predator on it. After predator had done its job devouring it I took on it's form for convenience. When I turned to the people that were there the women finally unfroze and said "High?". I looked at the man and noticed that while he was still frozen in place there was utter hate in his eyes. I had seen him going for his sword but did nothing about it instead I walked over to the Lady who was probably scared stiff and moved my nose on the ground to show an arrow pointing from north, east, south, west and proceeded to write with my nose City? Forest? Where? "Are you intelligent?" The lady asked. I nodded my head yes.

"are there others like you?" she said. I shook my head no because I didn't even know if I was normal. "Are you really a slime?" She said almost doubting her beliefs about slimes. 'Why does she ask questions?' I thought but to be nice to her I changed back to my slime form. From the looks of it she was surprised. "Why are you being so rude in your thoughts?" She said like I was talking out loud. 'SHE CAN HEAR ME?!' I shouted at the top of my lounges in my mind. "Ow Ow stop yelling." She said almost covering her ears. 'How can you hear me?' I thought almost like I felt like I was talking. "I'm a monster tamer, I can tame monsters when I give them a name. When they are given a name I can communicate with thoughts but you are the first monster to be able to think much less me communicate with when we haven't formed a pack." She explained her job. 'Am I really that different?' I thought like I was abnormal a person just like when I was young. "So since you can communicate with thoughts do you have a name and if so did you use to have a master but they died?" She said.

'My name is Rino, I never had a Master." I said to her through thoughts. "A named monster without a master. Strange." She replied to me. 'Do you two have names?' The thought passed my mind. "Oh sorry, we haven't introduced ourselves I'm Zilla and he is Quo." She said kinda embarrassed for not introducing themselves first. Just when she said Quo's name he snapped out of it and looked around wondering where the monster went "Where is it?" Quo said in panic. 'He isn't all that bright is he?' I thought while looking at him. She giggled embarrassingly "That's my brother for you." she said kinda sounding as if upset they were related.

They chatted like that for a while. After some time Zilla asked if Rino wanted to follow them out of this dingy flower filled cave. (The cave was covered with flowers and twigs were scattered everywhere because of the high winds.) Rino replied happily and they left into the bright new world.

Rino leaving behind his old one.

THE CITY

When we left the dingy cave we walked and passed some places. Talking along the way. I suggested for me to turn into the White Wolf (Name of the beast I used predator on) But she refused. For some reason it felt like we were always being avoided by monsters. I had finally gathered up the courage to ask "Why are there monsters avoiding us.'. "They aren't avoiding us, they are avoiding you." She said while sighing. "Why is that?' I asked. "They sense your aura since you did whatever you did to the White Wolf you took it's aura and that's what's scaring the monsters away." She said while looking at the beautiful landscapes. "Am I abnormal?' I asked to her in a way to make her feel like I spent all my life like that. "In some ways yes, In someways no." That was the end of our conversation We continued walking until we hit farmland.

Beautiful was the only words I could think. The farmland was ripe with crops there were children playing happily in the fields. It was like they had no worries in the world. We continued walking to the town when two children came running to us. "Big Sister is that your tamed beast?" One yelled "Big Bro Quo why don't we play knights today?" They were chatting happily with the children that they hadn't noticed I was moving around the town. There were people that were part beast part human in this town. They looked like they were slaves because they were in shabby clothes and they were doing the heavy lifting. I continued moving and didn't know where I was. I moved into an alley way and noticed that there was a man and women. The man was holding down the woman and the woman was crying begging the man to let her go. the man was a black haired man with fine features the woman was about 12 years old with a red racoons tail and ears. I supposed she was a slave and the man was her master.

The scene sickened me to the point where I changed my form into a white wolf and rammed into the man from behind. "F*ck who was it that did that to me" The man yelled as he was getting back up. I looked at the woman that was looking at me with fear in her eyes. To lower her fear I Touched her with my nose and let her feel my warmth. "WHY IS THERE A WHITE WOLF IN THE TOWN!" The man yelled so loud that everyone in the surroundings heard it and came running even the guards. When they arrived there all they had seen was me with my nose on the woman and the man 15 feet and a crater in the wall. The guards probably thought I was trying to harm the woman so they tried attacking me with swords but when they hit me all that happened was me regenerating at a fast pace. There were Monster tamers in the crowd because I had seen the way Zilla dressed up and noticed that they were dressed the same way so I looked to the crowd and thought "I mean no harm, I saved this girl from being raped if you can please restrain and retrieve these people.' All the beast tamers were surprised when they heard my thoughts and thought about it for a while "Stop! It means no harm!" someone in the crowd finally said. after the guards finally stopped attacking someone sent a few goblin looking creatures to retrieve the girl. While I walked over to the man. When I was 5 feet from him I turned back to my slime form. Which let's be honest surprised everyone. I then moved towards the man and when I was using predator he begged "Please no! No! I don't wanna die!" After I devoured his body I got flame magic, Speech and, appraisal. Everyone was shocked when I devoured him and said "Treat the girl." then they all looked at the girl I used that to escape back to Zilla's side. When I got there people were looking at Zilla in a perverted way. I jumped my slimy self over to her and said in what I named thought transversion "Hey people are staring at you.' I said. "I know" she replied. After we talked we moved deeper into town having small talk that made her laugh most of the time until we got to the place that looks like a clan. "Why are we here?' I thought. "Oh we are here at the Adventurers guild to collect our reward." She said. "Reward for what?' I thought. "Reward for gathering polymethis flowers that are used to make medicine." she replied. "Oh those weird flowers.' Was the only thing I said when we walked into the guild all eyes were put on them.

All men were Looking at Zilla as if she was a female dog and they were dogs in heat. All the woman were looking at Quo as if he was the man they all wanted to have a big orge with. While I was getting weird looks from other monster tamers beasts they were all whimpering and being scared as if they were about to die any second. When the Monster Tamers noticed their monsters weird reactions they all started looking around to see if there was a monster that they had never seen before and when they laid there eyes on me they were all shocked. they noticed me from the time I had killed that human. "Hey you over there stop!" one yelled. Everyone including those two stopped "Where did you get that monster?" They said and everyone shifted their gazes upon me. "Does it matter where I found my monsters?" she said with a look of annoyance. "Doesn't anyone remember that slime from earlier?" One of the tamers yelled "Are you talking about the one that devoured the young man and saved that 12 year old beast kin?" One of the drunk adventurers said.

"Oh yeah at first it looked like a White Wolf, then a slime, and devoured a human and spoke just like him." another one said. Since the cat was out of the bag and they had already discovered me I changed into the White Wolf form. The pressure being emitted by me caused the monsters to be more frightened by me "That's the one!" yelled the first monster tamer that recognised me. After he yelled I looked at the man and the glare that came with the gaze caused the man to shut his mouth. After doing that I thought why not scare them to hell I thought. After asking the Great Sage to merge the human form with the White Wolf form. I transformed into a beast kin form with both white and black hair. "Why do you have to be annoying." was the only thing I said. They all looked at me with their mouths dropped open only then did I realise I was ***** with a 8 pack and a big tree hanging out.

All the woman were both mesmerized by the way I look now and the way I have a thing just flapping in the air. "WHEN DID YOU LEARN TO TALK?" Quo yelled out loud "AND WHERE ARE YOUR CLOTHES?". "Oh I didn't account for this." I said while looking down. 'Hey great sage why do I have a gender? aren't slimes meant to not have a gender?' I thought to the great sage.

"You can eliminate the Bodily reproduction and Anus of the body if you so please because that stuff is useless." He replied 'Oh can you do that for me.' I thought honestly. "Of course I can." It said with a proud tone.

After that little talk all the bodily parts that weren't needed (***** and Anus) I now looked like a genderless creature. This astonished everyone. "Hey do you think I can become an adventurer too?" I asked Quo and Zilla. "Hah! A monster wishing to become a adventurer!" A drunk adventurer yelled out. In a matter of seconds I was behind him from the anger he caused deep down inside me from remembering the memories of my boss back then calling me a monster when they wanted to kill me. Before he could react I grabbed the adventurers head, bloodlust leaking out. I regained my self control when Zilla yelled stop. I released the mans head but whispered in his ear "I am different from other monsters, I am not tamed and will kill whoever calls me a monster or tries harming those close to me." those were all the words I said. I returned to Zilla's side.

She could tell something was bothering me. I knew she probably feared me from the way I acted just now. But to my surprise she didn't show fear only friendliness to me. We walked to the registration hall which is at the back of the guild. "Hi how may I help you?" A nice young girl about 19 years old said to us. "We'd like to register." Zilla said while looking at the receptionist. "1 Knight and a beast tamer?" she said while looking at me "Is this your slave?" she said while giving me a mocking manner. "Sorry but instead of him being registered." Zilla said while pointing at Quo "This one is being registered as an independent." She said while looking at me like I was a human being that mattered.

I looked at her showing her the sentience of myself in this form. Though she looked at me in a distasteful manner she said "Alright come to the testing room" as she led us down a hallway into a open colosseum. "This is where the test takes place defeat an instructor and you pass." was all she said about the test before she left. After a while 2 instructors came over "are you two taking the test?" was all they asked Zilla nodded. We then left and down to the colosseum. After we exchanged greetings Zilla said "do any of you have an extra pair of clothing?" they replied yes and she asked if she could borrow them. she then fed them to me which I used predator on and absorbed their property which I could now change into clothing.

"Why did you feed my clothes to it?" one of the instructors said. After she said that she shut her mouth to see that I was changing forms into a White Wolf, then gradually into a white wolf demi-human look. When they had seen the ***** figure they looked with their mouths dropped open but what surprised them even more was that the clothes appeared on the body as if magically. "Can I take the test now?" I said while looking at their faces which now look like their jaws have had weights weighing down on them.

"Ahem yes." said the one man carrying a great sword "What would you like to test in?".

"What are the choices?" I asked the man.

"Swordsmanship, Bowman ship, Magic, assassination, scouting, and tracking." said the man trying to recall what they were. "How many can I take?" I asked the man. "any and all if you have the proficiency." he said while recalling the rules.

"Then I choose all besides magic." I said while looking at the rack of weapons "May I?" I said while looking at the rack of weapons. "Sure." except the one to reply wasn't the man it was the Assassin test lady.

I walked over to the rack of weapons and picked 3 weapons 1 a sword, 2 a nice bow, and the final were 2 katars that were my main weapons in my last life. They were watching me when I turned around and asked "what happens if these disappear? do I have to pay for them?" The magician girl said "No you don't but why are you asking?". I turned back to the weapons and said great sage use predator. Then as I thought those words my body devoured the weapons and I got a message from the great sage saying

"Predator successful

devoured- 1 sword, 1 bow, 2 katars

Gained from weapons-

Swordsmanship Ranked- D

Bowman Ship- Ranked-C

Assasination class- Ranked- Uncommon

Extra- able to make weapons out of parts of your slime- can appear at any time.

Random- Gained the skill bloodlust- Rank-C(Beginner)"

They all looked at me shocked and I then said "Let's begin." When I got all of the knowledge transfered to my head. they snapped out of their shocked state when I said those words and the one to step forward was the girl and boy with a bow. "I'm Limika. and I'm Will. were twins and the bowman instructors." they said in unison. "your test will be to hit 5 moving targets that are traveling by teleportation at slow rates." said Limika. After will and Limika asked where my bow was they were shocked to see the bow manifest from my body from the same slime like material that swallowed the weapon earlier. "please start the test." I said while looking at her. she broke from her daze and started the test immediately.

The 5 targets were moving in a circle at a fast teleportation speed. They were 6 inches in diameter and were white which made it hard to see them. I grabbed the bowstring and pulled back as a arrow made from my slime was materializing I shot in the middle of all five and made it hit the wall so then it splattered all over the targets back. now that my slime was all over it I could now track the movements of them no matter how fast it was going. I pulled my bowstring back again and shot it at of the targets getting a bullseye. I repeated the repetitive motion 4 more times hitting all of them when the test ended I recalled the slime back to my body Zilla and Quo weren't even surprised at what I did. The magician lady on the other hand bombarded me with questions. Like a river that leads into the sea, it begins but never ends. This is a fun city.
