That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Light Novel, Chapter 397

Chapter 397

Just now, a female officer who worked under Hiragi was putting the torso of Jegyll into a medical capsule . It would not be able to regenerate the lost cells, but by sending nutrients to her body, her ability to self-heal would return . Jegyll had told him as much .

“Jegyll ordered you?”

“Yes, she did . ”

“…Now I remember . I did give you that order . ”

Karman was confused . Hiragi nodded . Jegyll confirmed it .

“So, she really was being controlled then…?”

“That appears to be the case . It’s definitely difficult to believe, but we should get on the ship now . We can talk as we head over to where General Michelle is . ”

And so Hiragi invited Karman and his men to come with them .

While Karman wasn’t completely satisfied with everything, he had known Hiragi for a long time .

He couldn’t believe that Hiragi would betray him, and so he decided to believe him .

However, Jegyll was an entirely different matter .

Or so Karman thought…

‘Jegyll, you’re safe . I’m so glad that I made it in time . ’

The mechanical voice rang once Jegyll’s capsule was brought onboard .

“!?”

Karman looked surprised .

And then Jegyll’s eyes blinked and she muttered .

“…It can’t be . Is that you, Michelle?”

‘Yes . It’s thought waves . I took over this ship’s operating system . ’

“What!?”

“Are you kidding…”

The mechanical voice said something most shocking .

Could it be that some artificial intelligence was trying to trick them?

No, Karman knew that this wasn’t the case . After all, while the voice was different, the manner in which it talked was clearly the same as Michelle .

And more than that, there was something about it that had a strong sense of authority .

Huh . Karman nodded .

“I see . That’s a… Well, you always exceed my imagination, General Michelle…”

“Well, that’s what she does . Her voice is what woke me up . So I can’t complain…”

Karman had a lot more that he wanted to say, but at this point, he had no choice but to believe .

Judging by Jegyll’s shock and how she reacted as if she were seeing a ghost, he decided that she wasn’t lying .

And it wasn’t just Jegyll .

Reiz and his men had also regained their own will after being exposed to Michelle’s thought waves .

“What have we been…”

Reiz and the others looked like they were waking from a dream .

After seeing this, Karman could not continue doubting it .

He put a cigar in his mouth and scratched his head .

“Tsk . All right then . So, General Michelle . What’s the situation?”

Karman finally bent .

He swallowed his anger towards Jegyll and decided to listen to what Michelle had to say .

And then he learned that Michelle was currently cut off from her body .

Her body was running wild and unleashing massive amounts of energy…

“…With the encryption key that I have, I could connect Michelle’s ‘brain’ to her body again . I have to hurry!!”

Jegyll said .

But it was very dangerous for Jegyll to get close to Michelle in this situation .

However…Jegyll still intended on going .

Karman also did not hesitate .

“Let’s go, Mister Hiragi . ”

“We already are . And at full speed . ”

Not only Karman, but Hiragi, no, everyone aboard the ship was united on this .

They would witness the fate of the world…

While Karman was reluctantly convinced…

Kristoph was also listening to Michelle’s ‘voice . ’

Now just Kristoph, all the officers and men on the battlefield and all of the resistance were also listening .

This was because Michelle was using the immense amount of energy that was overflowing from her, to unleash the thought waves in every direction .

As the thought waves were so strong, those who still had intact ‘brains’ were able to return to their original selves .

Of course, those who were just following orders would now obey Michelle .

As for the resistance…

Sharma had told them that Michelle was an ally, and so they quickly realized that something strange was happening .

Thankfully, Zaza was quick to believe .

“Stop fighting! This is without a doubt, the ‘voice’ of Michelle!!”

Because of Veldora, Zaza could no longer be shaken so easily .

And so he was able to accept all of this as if it were a mundane part of his every day .

In a way, you could say he had been poisoned by Veldora . But for now, it was working in a good way .

As the resistance’s largest fighting force that Zaza was with had now stopped fighting, the Empire was also able to settle down .

And so the battle came to a close without too much chaos .

Once the fighting was finished, they were able to detect the release of unbelievably high-power energy coming from the city .

And with that realization, came the certainty that continuing to battle now would be foolish—both the resistance and Empire were in agreement on this .

“I’m worried about Michelle . We have to go and find out what is happening…”

It was as if Zaza’s words represented the will of everyone present .

And then…

They all decided to head to that location .

It was there that they would bear witness to something they could never have imagined .

◆◆◆

Damn it . What was happening?

I take my eyes off them for one week and now a whole world is about to be destroyed .

No one would understand what I’m saying, but even I don’t understand how things had come to this .

I had just escaped to take a light breather, as a present to myself . But it looks like I made a mistake in allowing Veldora and Ramiris to do as they pleased .

To think that they would lead a world to destruction…

My little trip seemed cute in comparison .

Yeah, these two were crazy .

They had no sense of what was normal .
