Now in a fantasy world far removed from paperwork and computers, Yuji has just one thing on his mind: waking up from what he thinks is a dream and getting back to the mountain of work he left behind! But this other world has other plans for Yuji, who quickly discovers his Monster Tamer character class allows him to befriend slimes! And thanks to their number, those slimes help him absorb so much magical knowledge that he gains a second character class in the blink of an eye!

1"I Wanted to Protect the Town"
Transliteration: "Machi o Mamoritaku Natta" (Japanese: 街を守りたくなった)
Yasunori GotōNaohiro FukushimaKeisuke KojimaJuly 4, 2022 (2022-07-04)
Yuji is an adventurer in the village of Phastan. Due to his classification as a Monster Tamer he is assumed by most to be weak and is often overlooked, but in secret is a very powerful sorcerer known as a Sage. Ten thousand monsters attack the village and Yuji helps the other adventurers mount a defence. Tracking the monsters with his multiple tamed slimes, as well as his wolf monster Proudwolf and forest spirit Dryad, Yuji is able to protect the village with a barrier and destroy the monsters with Dragon’s fire by feeding a dragon bone to one of his slimes. His other slimes capture the man responsible, a member of a cult called Blue Moon of Salvation. The cultist however commits suicide after being captured; leaving behind a magical lantern he used to control the monsters. Yuji passes out from using too much magic. Yuji briefly remembers a past life as a Salaryman in Japan and so he sneaks away from the celebrating adventurers before they can thank or reward him or draw too much attention to him.
2"Trying Out a Party"
Transliteration: "Pātī o Kundemita" (Japanese: パーティーを組んでみた)
Yasunori GotōNaohiro FukushimaKeisuke KojimaJuly 4, 2022 (2022-07-04)
Yuji travels to Kilia’s adventurer guild and is invited to form a party due to his tracking abilities; the knife wielder Rodis, archer Tina and spear wielder Lisa. They accept a job to track a rock dragon. As they sleep that night Yuji dreams of falling asleep as a salaryman but waking up in the world of a game he was playing as a novice Tamer. Despite his confusion he tamed several slimes and immediately discovered the disused hut of a deceased sorcerer. He found that as the slimes read the sorcerers’ book collection he instantly gained all the skills and knowledge from the books and within minutes gained the title of Sage. Awakening he finds Rodis is missing. Tracking him they follow Rodis to a bandit camp and learn Rodis is a bandit who lures adventurers to kidnap and sell into slavery. Yuji freezes the bandits camp in solid ice and the girls realise one of the bandits is Gelios, an infamous bandit and cult member with a substantial price on his head. Yuji realise the Blue Moon cult was behind the attack at Phastan and appears concerned about a cryptic claim Gelios made about a future calamity.
3"I Meant Too Strong"
Transliteration: "Tsuyosugiru tte Imi Datta" (Japanese: 強すぎるって意味だった)
Michita ShiraishiYutaka YasunagaKiyotaka SuzukiJuly 11, 2022 (2022-07-11)
Yuji continues tracking the rock dragon with Tina and Lisa. The moon and sky suddenly turn blue, as foretold by the cultist’s prophecy, and a blue dragon appears, forcing them to shelter in nearby Delight Canyon. The rock dragon emerges and blocks Yuji, Tina and Lisa from going further. With the slimes Yuji uses a powerful fire spell to burn the Earth Dragon so only its skeleton remains. With the dragon skull and the bounty on Gelios the guild pays them 14 million gold. Yuji is drawn into a meeting with Guild Chief Rayard and Grand Cathedral representative Father Steyl. Steyl reveals in church legend the dragon appeared and destroyed a continent before being defeated by a divine emissary who rivalled the power of God. 30 years ago the church performed a summoning ceremony to cause the emissary to appear one week before the dragon, but the emissary never came. Even without the emissary Rayard orders the guild to attack the dragon at first light. In private, Steyl reveals a holy vision directed him to gift Yuji a church relic, the Dagger of Kethis, which can focus magic power. That night, as his slimes report that the blue dragon continues to grow larger, Yuji fears many adventurers will die and comes to a decision.
4"Truly Unusual Situations"

Yuji and his slimes spring an attack on the dragon. Utilising protective barrier magic Yuji is able to avoid the dragon’s attacks, and with his fire magic concentrated in the Dagger of Kethis, stabs it in the neck so the explosion kills the dragon instantly. With the dragon mysteriously defeated Steyl leaves but Rayard suspects Yuji. Having drawn too much attention again Yuji leaves for the town of Ricaardo which, according to Tina and Lisa, is a completely ordinary place. Dryad informs Yuji dead dragons contain something called Dragon Grace, which has sprouted mushrooms around the corpse with which she can make potions, red to increase Sage skills, and Blue to restore depleted magic. As the potions brew Yuji remembers first meeting Dryad dying after an unidentified person drained her forests magic with a crystal, so he saved her with a magic transfusion then destroyed the crystal, restoring her forest. Yuji encounters a village shrouded in fog called the Village of Messias. The villagers are suspicious of his presence but allow him to leave when he assures them he was just lost. As he leaves the villagers contact an unknown person to reassure him their plan to retrieve the Dragon Grace is unaffected. Yuji makes it to where Ricaardo should be but finds the landscape covered in unnatural snow.
5"That Cold Looked Troubling"

Naohiro FukushimaKenichi IshikuraJuly 25, 2022 (2022-07-25)
Entering Ricaardo Yuuji learns the snow is unusual and none of the villagers were prepared for it, as such the firewood has already been used up. Disappointed he can’t try Ricaardo’s famous cuisine without cooking fires, Yuuji figures out how to use his slimes to dry out freshly chopped trees to make perfect firewood. The town chef, grateful for the wood, cooks Yuuji one of his finest dishes in gratitude. Seeing the rest of Ricaardo is still short on wood Yuuji joins the local foresters and shocks them by procuring enough wood for the entire town to last several weeks. Yuuji receives yet another meal but the chef reveals it is not his best food as the fields where the town grows its famous herbs is plagued by monsters that eat them. Proudwolf and the slimes help locate the boar-type monsters and defeat them. They also find a crystal orb which turns out to be Dragon Grace refined into a cursed crystal that is absorbing all the magic in the area and causing the snow. Following other crystals set in a circular pattern Yuuji locates the pattern’s centre and, despite Dryad’s unhappy permission, destroys the forest around the centre, revealing an old house with a trapdoor leading underground.
