Following the worker's slime, Zen notices many monster corpses lying on the floor, with their skin melted off their body, showing the bloody organs.

'Damn, with the corpse becoming like this, are they even worth anything else?' Zen cursed inwardly when he noticed the corpse's state.

There was barely any recognizable feature of them being monsters considering the amount of damage it took from the acid shot.

The crazy slimes were indeed ruthless as they didn't care about holding their power back and fired their acid shot until the monsters had fallen without any resistance.

"Are all the monsters going to be like this?" Zen asked the crazy slime who was jumping up and down to move forward in an awkward tone.

The crazy slime didn't know what he was thinking, happily replied, "Yes, we made sure none of them have their body intact for trying to harm our master."

Zen twitched his mouth and was stumped, unable to reply or even yell at their action.

Not when they are believing themselves to be a guardian of the sort, protecting him from any harm since it was also his mistake. A mistake on not properly ordering them on how to handle the monster and not just decimate them completely upon sight.

Seeing Zen not replying to the crazy slime, it became frightful that he said something wrong so he hurriedly approached him.

"D-Did we do something wrong to displease the master?" The crazy slime stuttered as it could be seen trembling from its transparent body that was bluish in color.

Zen shook his head and said, "No, you guys did a great job. Let's just hurry our movement to the stair and the rest of the group since all the monsters are like this."

Afterward, he turned around to check on the princesses who remained silent throughout the journey and wonder what happened to them.

Glancing at Krista Dragoon, Zen asked, "Why aren't you talking anymore? You can't possibly be mad at me for ignoring you before right."

Although it was true he neglected her when she asked about the question regarding the smooth wall, it wasn't on purpose.

He has too much thinking to do and can't waste much time flirting when he needs to get out of this labyrinth as well.

Zen has secretly tried to use teleport to see if he can get out of the floor but alas, it was restricted and it wasn't surprising for him. To teleport multiple nobles into this labyrinth without anyone suspecting would be suspicious if they didn't have a counter-move against mages who can teleport.

"No, I'm not some petty woman who would get mad for being ignored. I'm just wondering if you wanted these crazy slimes as a pet for this purpose. Otherwise, I can't imagine why you would want to keep them as pets instead of annihilating them all." Krista Dragoon spoke softly as she gazed Zen deep in the eye.

A surprised expression appeared on his face as he rubbed his chin lightly.

"You already know the answer yet you're asking me. That's pretty surprising and unexpected of you." Zen took a few moments before replying calmly to Krista Dragoon.

Her reasoning wasn't entirely correct as making them work for him is part of his plan. The main reason is, people always underestimate weak monsters such as slime so having them work for him would lower the enemy's alertness.

Who would believe a slime is capable of many things? 

No one, unless they had met an abnormal slime before in their life otherwise, their only reaction would be scoffing whenever they see a slime approaching them.

"I would still like to hear your confirmation and your reply just made me wary of you. It seems I have overestimated myself this time when I thought you're just a playboy initially who doesn't have a brain." Krista Dragoon said as she hid behind Leila Dragoon a little bit.

She knew her words would trigger Zen to punish her slightly and his punishment is usually about taking advantage of her.

She had enough of being held in an embrace by Zen or worse, having to kiss him to get away from her predicament.

Also, she can never tell what he's thinking whenever he holds a cheeky smile that could either be malicious or happy inside.

Zen shrugged his shoulders when his image of being a gentleman had completely shattered.

'I was hoping to keep this image of mine to be a bit longer. But alas, a shameless scoundrel like me can never change my natural habit no matter how much I tried.'

Zen squinted his eyes to stare at Krista Dragoon who hurriedly avoided his eyesight, causing him to have a helpless expression.

"Am I scary Leila?" Zen decided to ask Leila Dragoon since Krista Dragoon is clearly terrified to interact with him any closer.

"Instead of scary, I would say you're more of a lecherous man who will take advantage of a woman at any given opportunity. In front of a woman, especially a beautiful woman, you will become a predator that's trying to hunt them down." Leila Dragoon replied softly before giggling softly as she glanced at her sister.

Zen was dumbstruck by Leila Dragoon's fiery words and Krista Dragoon became dumbfounded on hearing her little sister's words.

'You have finally decided to side with me, Leila. My little lovely sister is back.' Krista Dragoon said inwardly as she became cheerful.

Meanwhile, Zen felt like he had been stabbed by a knife into his heart and soul for such words coming out from Leila Dragoon.

'Damn it, another betrayal. This is why I rarely form an alliance with anyone when I can't trust them fully.' Zen cursed inwardly as he ignored the two princesses who held a smug expression.

Zen was too embarrassed to chat with them any longer as he ordered the crazy slime to move forward again since it stopped his track when Zen initiated a conversation with them.

Shortly after, the crazy slime brought Zen to a narrowed and dark area where piles of monster corpses form a tiny hill. 

The crazy slimes could be seen jumping up and down while firing their acid shot in a specific location at the dead corpse with cheers erupting when they've landed the shot perfectly.
