"We only do this when we are on higher volume periods and the heat causes things to melt or catch fire. I never planned for this system to be used t defeat slimes. Let alone, a species I have yet to see in my life." The king of the middle was still bragging making Walker worry even more. 

Yet, when Walker surveyed the area he found that there was almost nothing left there to deal with. The guards were cleaning or discarding weapons and armor so that they would not be hurt by the remaining acidic slime bodies. 

Midnight came to Walker\'s side from the shadows and opened her mouth. She let seven slime cores, both whole and cracked fall in front of Walker. "Nice job, I am sure you managed to keep the guards very safe and watch their backs." Walker praised Midnight while keeping an eye out still. 

He knew that Midnight had used her shadow wrapping skill to hide way and attack the slime at her own pace. He could tell she was also the reason why the slimes had not been able to get anywhere near him while he had prepared his skills and focused on melting ice in to water. 

"You slew that many from your shadows? How great you are dragon. You are welcome to stand with me at any time!" The king of the middle was very impressed with the party so far and was beginning to see them as indisposable allies. It was yet another reason for him to join the Genesis alliance. 

The sounds of victory were constantly coming from the many streets around them. The king only stood taller and taller as they increased and eventually came to a stop. The only sounds left were the golems marching through the merchant district looking for nay slimes to destroy. 

"You have shown me your strength. Welcome to the high forge and the merchant district of the dwarven city." The king of the middle gave his official greeting. "But I will need to ask more of you. I need you to depart and assist those in the mind below. The king of the deepest parts, of the mines, is dealing with the water running off from here but also the west of this infestation." 

Walker planned to help more anyways, but having the king ask him, motivated him even more than he was previously. "I will be on my way. I will return to the high forge when I have completed this task. I do have business with you and the high forge." Walker found that the guard, who he had saved, was waiting for him. 

"My king, allow me to repay this hero and guide him to the depths. I was born there and can not call myself a royal guard if I owe a debt to another." This was a very serious ask of the kong. Losing a royal guard was normally a taboo, yet, when Walker looked at the king of the middle there was no surprise on his face. 

"Go and pay the debt you owe. As the king, I believe you will uphold the order and prosperity of the dwarven name." The guard stood up and stepped in to a forward position for Walker to follow. 

"Hero, follow my lead and I will have you at the entrance to the mine and the source of these terrible things." The guard took a heavy step forward. It was as if he had never chosen to head down his own path. 

There were no reasons to make Walker hesitate. He had come to this city to do exactly what he was doing. He had not expected to move so fast through things but had the feeling that the dwarves had much more information in the party than they let on. 

Walker knew that this was an important moment to contact his party and pulled up the party chat function he rarely needed to use. "I am heading to the mine entrance. I believe Gil, You are already there. Remey, what is your status on the slime poison? Su, will you join us or remain healing? Onyx will stay with you regardless while Midnight is sticking we me." 

Walker sent this to all of them and instantly was met with Su\'s response to stay and assist with healing. He had not expected any other result though. Gil was the next to contact him, "I am waiting at the entrance. I used most of my water elemental wither spike arrows and some of them can be used again since they were very small slimes. I will wait for you." 

The last reply from Remey was a greater surprise. "I will have results in three hours. I will be there soon. Just wait. I found a solution." Walker felt that this was more important for the lower mining level. The reason being that the slimes were much more likely to be in higher numbers due to the more ore to eat. Walker crossed his fingers while setting off with the dwarf royal guard, Midnight at his heels. 

The party was using a lot of their resources and had bolstered many of the dwarves on to action. However, Walker felt things were too smooth. He had yet to see one of the colorless slimes that had controlled the purples slimes. It made him worry while he walked toward the mine entrance.
