Chapter 381 344 – Future Sight, Killing the Slime

The skill he had created actually had absolutely nothing to do with the original [Amenotejikara].

It was purely an application of spatial power, allowing him to swap places with anything within his field of vision.

However, he had created the ability based on his impression of Amenotejikara, so he simply kept the name.

Now that he had arrived above the sealed cave, Takumi once again experienced just how absurd [King of Creation (Gold)] truly was.

Manifesting something purely from imagination was indeed extremely difficult.

However, as long as he possessed a theoretical foundation, the process became much easier!

He could now create entire batches of spatial derivative skills like this within minutes.

"[King of Creation (Gold)] doesn't truly create something from nothing."

"It's only because I already possess the necessary foundation that I can expand it into more branches."

"And the continuous process of creation helps me comprehend and understand the powers that were originally hidden inside me."

With every breath Takumi took, he could feel the flow of the surrounding space.

His mastery over the laws of space was also gradually reaching the point where he could manipulate them at will.

If he took one more step forward, he could be considered to have touched the level of spatial authority.

"As expected of one of the Star-King Dragon's core skills."

"It really gives me that cultivation-novel feeling where mastering one law allows you to understand ten thousand others."

Countless thoughts passed through Takumi's mind, yet not even half a second had passed in reality.

When he did not deliberately suppress his condition, his ordinary thinking speed was already thousands or even tens of thousands of times faster than that of a normal person.

The moment Takumi descended upon the sealed cave, he sensed the surrounding magicules, which were so dense that they had almost become viscous.

"The concentration is nearly thick enough to become liquid. The purer something is, the more poisonous it can become."

"For anyone unable to digest these magicules, inhaling them would be no different from breathing in lethal poison."

Takumi looked around and saw nothing but lush vegetation.

These medicinal plants had grown under the nourishment of the magicules, while the excessive concentration prevented living creatures from feeding on them.

"Hipokute herbs. They're fairly valuable medicinal plants."

Since he was already here, Takumi uprooted every herb in the surrounding area with a single thought and transplanted them into the Space-Time Realm.

In an instant, the lush field became a barren slope.

"I'll have to search personally. The magicules here are too dense for my spiritual perception to spread properly."

"This is when I need to rely on luck and prophecy."

After entering the cave, Takumi unhesitatingly activated [Prophecy of Death (Purple)], which he had obtained from Rikka Sakuragawa.

Drops of his life force drained away as one future prophecy after another unfolded before his eyes.

"Not enough. This still isn't enough!"

"Chrono-Vision Eye, Prophecy of Death—combine!"

"King of Creation: Future Sight!!"

Using [King of Creation (Gold)], Takumi upgraded his [Prophecy of Death] by combining it with the power of the [Chrono-Vision Eye].

He could now directly consume magic power to observe images from hundreds of possible future timelines, with a maximum range of one hour into the future.

One scene after another appeared before Takumi's eyes, representing hundreds of possible timelines.

"I feel like saying, 'Emperor, it was me, Diavolo!'"

"Still, mine is much stronger than his Epitaph."

"Unfortunately, I can't create King Crimson's time erasure yet."

Takumi stood motionless, dividing his attention as he reviewed hundreds of possible scenes from within the next hour.

The magic power inside his body drained rapidly, but compared to his vast reserves, it was utterly insignificant.

Half a second passed in the outside world.

Takumi opened his eyes, revealing a confident expression that showed he had already grasped everything.

Across those hundreds of possible timelines, he had practically explored more than half of the sealed cave.

And among those possibilities, he had also found the scene where he encountered the slime.

Takumi immediately ventured deeper into the cave, perfectly reproducing the route he had observed.

Half an hour later, he arrived in the depths of the sealed cave.

Advancing through the cave was extremely difficult. Some passages were far too narrow for any human to pass through.

Fortunately, he could freely alter his bodily structure and easily flow through them.

All kinds of "magic ore" could also be found throughout the cave. In the outside world, each piece would have been an extremely valuable forging material.

Takumi naturally took all of it without hesitation before arriving at a medicinal herb field.

At that moment, a blue slime was freely bouncing around among the herbs.

"Chomp! Chomp!"

"This is so boring. All I can do is eat grass to pass the time."

"Repeat absorption, analysis, and storage."

The moment Takumi focused on the slime, he immediately heard its inner voice.

The slime, however, did not see him. Takumi was currently standing invisibly in a corner.

As he observed the slime, Takumi's expression became somewhat cautious.

"Emerald Eyes!"

[Name: None (Slime)]

[Level: F+]

[Attributes: Favored by Fortune (Gold), Great Sage (Purple), Predator (Purple), Slime (Green)…]

[Favored by Fortune (Gold): Your luck is unbelievably great. As long as even the slightest chance of survival remains when you encounter danger, you can turn disaster into fortune.]

[Great Sage (Purple): Not yet fully integrated. Composed of multiple skills, capable of autonomous evolution, and possesses the wisdom to calculate all things.]

[Predator (Purple): Composed of multiple skills. Can devour targets and has a chance to analyze and replicate their abilities or skills.]

[Slime (Green): You are a slime.]

"Oh? He isn't the protagonist anymore?"

Takumi frowned slightly and discovered that there had been no problem with his transmigration mechanism.

The Yuuki Kagurazaka he had killed earlier had genuinely become the protagonist of this world.

But wasn't the protagonist originally supposed to be the slime?

Takumi's mind spun rapidly, and he soon realized where the problem lay.

"This world contains a mechanism similar to a closed time loop."

"My arrival broke that loop, while [Curse of Love (Red)] twisted the timeline and fate, causing everything to change."

"If the slime were still the protagonist… then I wouldn't be able to attack it at all."

Most of Takumi's knowledge about That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime came from the anime.

But there was one thing he understood very clearly: the slime became absurdly powerful later in the novels.

It could freely travel through timelines and create worlds. Using his own level system, it should have reached somewhere between the hyper-universal and multiversal level.

If it truly possessed that degree of power, then attacking the current slime would be as ridiculous as going into the tokusatsu world and trying to travel back in time to kill Ohma Zi-O.

Still cautious, Takumi repeatedly examined the future scenes and confirmed that he had left flesh and bodily tissue behind in the Space-Time Realm.

Once he had ensured that he could afford to take the gamble, Takumi acted instantly!

At that moment, he pushed his magic power to its absolute limit, raising his aura to Chief God class.

A Chief God-class being launching an underdog assault against an F+ slime.

Splat!

Takumi brought down a single palm, crushing the slime into paste on the spot before it could offer even the slightest resistance.

A vast number of cellular spores instantly absorbed the slime's entire body.

At the same time, the [Soul Devour (Purple)] attribute activated, completely consuming the slime's soul as well.
