The Unnamed God. I'm really Not a God You Guys!

Comes an astounded and excited voice. And a barrage of words. All about slimes. I do stop it in time before it becomes overwhelming.

[Wait! Who the hell are you?!]

In front of us stands a robed individual with a golden mask. Clothes are dark and seem to be travel weary. Wearing a hood too.

The neutral-sounding voice makes it hard to determine the gender. Whoever this is has a small build, however. That person was apparently eating here and rose up in surprise hearing our conversation.

"Pardon me for my indiscretion. I couldn't help but overhear you guys. Can I see the slime up close?"

We look at each other.

"S-sure I guess."

I feel like we are all thinking the same. What makes a slime so interesting? And interested this random person truly seems!

We can see eyes that are extremely shiny. Behind the mask is a huge grin I am sure. It keeps touching the slime and shouting stuff like wow, amazing, unbelievable! We are just here being confused.

[So, who are you again?]

"Me? I am one that travels the world in search of knowledge. I am the experimenter that will definitively bring forth a new golden age. I am the one that will figure out the truths of the universe one discovery at a time. I am the one that is relentless and a seeker. My curiosity knows no bounds and my tenacity is unequaled. No matter how many doubts me I will prove them all wrong for I am …"

"Can you cut to chase please?"

"This young lady sure is lively haha."

Wait how does the old man know she isn't a man? Is it a superpower he possesses? Did she give out a clue I didn't notice?!

"…that…. I am KIM."

So much buildup for such a short name. At least it's easy to remember. I get the feeling this one goes by many titles and nicknames, however. Most of them being self-proclaimed I bet.

After that, all of that above was a mouthful. How long would have that speech lasted if it wasn't prematurely stopped? Probably 2k words or something. I don't know. Still would have been long haha.

[So Kim? What brings you here?]

"Ah? It's KIM."

[That's what I said, Kim.]

"Yes, that's what he said."

"This old man agrees."

"Ah? No, not Kim. KIM!"

I'm lost. If anything she is saying the same thing again but with slightly more energetic pronunciation.

[KIM?]

"Yes?"

[Why do you sound unsure?!]

"Oh, I thought you were about to ask me a question."

"Young lady how about answering the previous question? What brings you here?"

"Oh, that? The noodles. They are delicious. Ah, shame that it fell."

"I'm pretty sure he meant what brings you to this town in general."

"Oh, that? The slimes! The slimes brought me here. You see I am wandering around places where slimes can be found to try and learn more about their behavior and characteristics."

[Are you some kind of researcher?]

"Ah? No, I'm an alchemist didn't I already say that?"

"No, you did not lady! You said everything but that!"

"Ah? Must have slipped my mind. Happens."

This new character is definitively peculiar. What's with beginning the sentences with a question? Also, how is her introduction that long and besides the point?

So she is an alchemist that is here for the slimes. I fucking knew it! There is something to be done with slimes!

[I'm getting curious. What can one craft with materials from slimes?]

"Ah? The possibilities are endless. You see!"

*Nod, nod*

The other two are just watching the conversation on the sidelines now. What do you guys know? Slimes have amazing potential!

It is possible to use slime suits infused with mana to fight!

It is possible to create an invincible army of slimes, especially when you get picked up by a god!

It is possible to…. actually, I do have a real-life slime expert in front of me!

This is awesome.

Whoever that lady is she has potential. KIM has potential as the greatest alchemist of all times!

"There are so many things that should be impossible yet that slimes manage to do."

*Nod nod*

"Just their existence itself is a miracle!"

*Nod nod*

"How can such a creature that only ever eats exist? Besides evolving, it doesn't do anything with all that energy. It is an ultimate being!"

*Nod nod*

"We have so much to learn from them too!"

Completely agree with that. I know a guy that became the strongest FFFF class hero using wisdom gained from a slime! I wanna do the same, but this seems close to impossible to say the least.

"People look down on slimes, but their possibilities are limitless!"

*Nod nod*

"No poison can affect them! Nothing is especially effective against them!"

*Nod nod*

…. wait divine energy seems dangerous to them. But otherwise, I agree.

"The only way to defeat them is through sheer power!"

*Nod nod*

I can hear little Bai scoffing about how that is not a hard thing to do in the background. What a fool!

"Such an amazing constitution brings forth so many endless options!"

*Nod nod*

"Can you imagine armor having the resistance of metal and the elasticity of slime?"

I totally can!

"Can you imagine weapons being able to devour your opponent's weaponry and even fight by itself?"

Totally can!

"Can you imagine medicine made with slime body fluid to cure all illness by dissolving the root cause directly?"

Hell yeah!

"Can you imagine using slimes to increase the efficiency of information gathering?"

Of course …wait is she talking scouting or torture? Some kind of waterboarding from hell? Should I get behind that?

"Can you imagine developing new communication methods using byproducts of slimes?"

Oh my god. She can do that?! This is amazing as fuck!

"Can you imagine slowing down one's aging process through slime-like regeneration?"

Wouldn't it make it possible to become immortal!

[All of this is awesome! I can imagine all of this for sure! How are you able to do all of that?! I want to learn for sure!]

"Ah? Do that? I said the possibilities are endless. This stuff is all theoretical."

[Wait…so how much of it can you actually do?]

"Ah? None. None of it works practically."

This....why does she have to crush my dreams like that?!

Some of it is possible, right?!
