Hearing her ask this, I didn't say anything at first.
Then I just slowly said, "I don't know."
"What do you mean?" The female black dragon asked in a confused voice.
After another pause, I slowly said, "When I woke up, I was in the carriage of these humans. I didn't know what was happening, but I had no choice but to fight back when they tried to kill me. Then the goblins came all of a sudden and I had no choice but to take care of them as well."
"You really don't know anything?" The female black dragon asked in a surprised voice.
I slowly gave a nod without saying anything.
The female black dragon just looked at me as if she was trying to figure out if I was telling the truth or not.
But after a while, she suddenly said with a smile, "Then since you don't know anything, do you want to come with me?"
I was caught off guard by this invitation and I didn't accept it right away as I just didn't know what this female black dragon was planning.
However, the way that the female black dragon was looking at me…
It really didn't seem like it was thinking anything else. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs novel⸺fire.net
It even seemed like it was drooling because of the face that I had…
A female black dragon that seemed to care about face value, there really were all kinds of things that were out there.
Still, this was a female black dragon.
While I didn't exactly know how powerful she was, it wasn't as if she would be weak since she was a female black dragon that could even transform into human form. To do something like that, the purity of her black dragon bloodline definitely wasn't low.
Staying with her was a good choice for the future, but that was only if I could control her.
If she saw me as some kind of toy, then it would be dangerous since there was no telling when she would abandon me.
For now, there was nothing that I could do since the female black dragon was only showing interest in me. I had to show that I was a slime that was worth her time before our relationship changed.
After a momentary pause, I said, "Alright, I can come with you for now. But when the time comes, we should prepare to go our separate ways."
The female black dragon was surprised to hear this since she didn't expect me to propose this, but she slowly nodded in agreement.
After all, she knew too that it wasn't as if we would remain together forever just on curiosity alone. The way that she looked at me was as if she had already expected to abandon me one day.
It was just that after I proposed this, I had triggered her curiosity and she didn't seem that keen to leave me that soon.
Once we agreed on this, the female black dragon suddenly asked, "Do you have a name yet?"
I thought about it before slowly shaking my head.
I had thought of a name for this avatar, but since I was feigning memory loss, it wasn't as if I could just say my name that quickly. I had to at least pretend that I didn't actually have any memories.
"Then since you don't remember, how about we come up with a name for you for now so I have something to address you by?"
I wasn't exactly thrilled about this suggestion, but it was hard to reject her with the way that she looked at me.
Picking up a stick from the ground, the female black dragon started writing a few things on the ground before suddenly realizing something. She looked at me as if she had somehow wronged me.
I could guess why she was looking at me .
The way that she looked at me was as if she was looking at someone who was illiterate.
After all, I was a monster that had lost his memory.
Well, from the story that I told, it would make more sense if I was a monster that had suddenly gained intelligence while being transported by humans.
Either way, it didn't make sense that I would be able to read.
But I just said, "I can read it, don't worry."
"Oh." The female black dragon said with a surprised look before continuing to write on the ground.
I didn't say anything at first, but my lips couldn't help twitching when I read the names that she came up with.
These really weren't names that an adult would come up with, these were names that a kid would come up with because it sounded cool…However, it wasn't as if I wanted this to be my name even if it was temporary…
So in the end, I said, "I think I'm starting to remember something."
The female black dragon suddenly stopped writing down names and looked up at me as if she was expecting something.
"Tempest, that's my name."
"Oh…" This time, there was a disappointed look that appeared on the female black dragon's face. She didn't seem suspicious at all that I had suddenly remembered my name , but I really couldn't let her name me…
After all, some of the names that she was writing on the ground weren't proper names at all.
Spot, Dot, and other names that seemed like they were for a dog rather than a person.
It was almost as if she was seeing me as some kind of pet rather than a partner.
Perhaps that was just how a relationship between a dragon and a slime should be, but I had to stop her from giving me some kind of ridiculous name.
To move the topic forward, I asked, "What about you? What is your name?"
The female black dragon revealed an awkward look before saying, "I don't actually have a name."
Then after a pause, she said with a wide smile, "How about you come up with a name for me?"
