There was a small gap of 5 seconds to use [Queen's throw!]. When the timer was up, Nero didn't hesitate and used the skill again.

[Queen's throw!]

*Whoosh!*

Even in pain, the bald thief still stood his ground. Now more than ever, he was focused on dodging the attack that was coming his way; he vowed not to underestimate this winged girl.

*Bang!*

Much to Nero's misfortune, the bald thief managed to dodge. He now saw that if he concentrated well, it was not so difficult to dodge. Although her aim was good, he realized her failure. This was that she was not used to attacking moving targets. She couldn't predict the path of the bald thief, which made it easy for him to dodge.

But he still had a problem: although he could dodge, he still couldn't attack. Both he and his partner were hand-to-hand fighters who used swords and daggers. They had no long-range attacks.

Nero saw that the thief was taking advantage of the time she was taking to attack again and began to treat his wound with a green ointment, much like the green paste that the other thief used.

Speaking of the other thief, he was really pitiful. He was chasing after Green Slime, but he couldn't get close, because he feared Green Slime's acid. He had already been hurt by the acid and was very cautious of it now.

That was the difference between a monster that lives by instinct and the one that was now being controlled by Nero. She may not have been a born warrior, and she didn't understand much about fighting, however, her reasoning was several times superior to the primitive instincts of a Slime. She made Slime use [Spit Acid] at the right time before it was even attacked. This made the red-haired thief very frustrated.

It was incomprehensible to him for a Green Slime to be so smart. And it was even more shameful for him to be taking so long to defeat a simple Green Slime at level 3.

Returning the focus to Nero's battle, she found herself in a dilemma. Although the 5-second cooldown seemed to be small, it now felt like it was huge. She saw the bald thief heal and could only watch; she still didn't know how to make another attack. It was then that she thought of attacking using stones even if it had to be without using a skill. If she was lucky, she'd end up hurting him.

Picking up a stone in each hand, she began to throw stones, one after another, at the bald thief. Her actions left the bald thief quite frightened; he didn't understand how she managed to get so many stones. Finding himself in the middle of a stone rain, his previously smiling face was distorted. He ran as fast as possible to avoid the raining stones that were coming his way.

*Bang! Bang! Bang!*

The stones fell to the ground like a hailstorm, only heavier to the point of sinking a little into the earth.

The bald thief dripped sweat from his head; he now had another reason to fear this winged woman. He started to regret his decision to ambush her and wanted to run away, but he didn't know if he would be attacked if he did that. The thought of picking up stones from the ground and throwing them at Nero was not very viable; it was just too high for him to get it right.

When the cooldown of her ability was over, Nero smiled. Her smile was beautiful and charming, but to the bald thief, it seemed even more frightening than a demon's smile. However, he was wrong to think that he was still her target. Nero was not a fool. She saw that if she wanted to defeat this guy, it would be easier if she coordinated with her Green Slime. And if she took too long, even though Green Slime is stronger with her in control, it was only a matter of time before it was defeated.

[Queen's throw!]

*Whoosh!*

"Marco, watch out!" It was too late. As he himself guessed, she had a good aim and while the other red-haired thief named Marco was distracted by Green Slime, he didn't have time to dodge, let alone know where the attack came from.

"Poow!"

[Critical damage]

It was a stomach-churning scene. The stone hit right in the middle of Marco's head and traversed all the way through. The red-thief's cloth pants were torn and his organs splayed out along with the stone that went through his entire body.

· You defeated the Human: [Thief] Rank F: Level 4.

*blergh!*

Nero vomited. It looked like a rainbow falling from the sky. She felt completely nauseous. She was quite ill to see this scene, being the first time she killed someone in her life.

The bald thief dumbfoundedly didn't make a sound. He didn't even try to see if his friend actually died or not. He took advantage of the moment when Nero was throwing up and started to run away.

When Nero stopped vomiting, she realized that the other thief was no longer there. He ran away even faster than he came. This was also a good thing for Nero. She was starting to feel tired; she didn't know how much longer she could keep flying.

Descending from the air, flapping her wings, she landed on the ground. The scenario itself was disastrous. Many holes had been left, and some trees have been bruised by the stones and Green Slime acid.

Incredible as it sounds, she managed to keep Green Slime alive for a long time. She could also see that, although she was not so sure, she was probably at least as strong as someone at level 5.

Looking at the red-haired thief's body, she felt uneasiness in her heart. She was not a cold-blooded person. Killing someone, even if he was a thief who wanted to harm her, still affected her a little. However, she was not as pious as she appeared to be. Nero saw that if she were just a little weaker, it would be she who was suffering at that moment. She could be in a situation where death would be preferable to being alive.

Nero ordered Green Slime to absorb the red-haired thief, and that's just what Green Slime did. Of course, she didn't look and turned away her face as the Green Slime melted and absorbed the red-haired thief's body.

· [Green Slime mutated!]

· [Green Slime Level 3; became Primal Slime Level 3]

_ _

"Kya!"

Turning to see the result, she let out a small, cute involuntary squeak as she was startled by her monster's current appearance.

Primal Slime was an even uglier and more disgusting Slime than Green Slime. It had a melted lower body and was crawling on the floor like a slug. In the upper part of the body, that was the scary part, there was a silhouette of a human skull head with a wide-open mouth and wicked eyes. Looking at this, Nero couldn't help being scared.

Although there was no change in the level of the current Primal Slime, the ability [Spit Acid] became level 2.
