Slimes ｢粘性体, suraimu, lit. "Viscous Body"｣ are a race of Specters and are Demi-spiritual life-forms. They are one of the weakest Monsters known to exist.
Slimes are typically creatures without any form of higher intelligence that only eat and regenerate. They also usually never leave their territories. It is possible for an intelligent Slime to naturally come into existence as a Unique Monster, though there hasn't been any such occurrence as of yet. In the Slime Diaries, they are seen emerging from the ground in large numbers during hot weather.
The Slimes in magicule-deprived regions are extremely violent and eat biological material, since there is a need for survival and a lack of Magicules to consume.
Abilities[]
Slime bodies are a composition of identical cells that can each serve as both a neuron and a muscle cell at the same time. Thus, as the thought process is undertaken by different cells at different times, sleep is unnecessary.
Slime bodies move and are sustained with magicules. Since oxygen is unnecessary, no form of breathing occurs. They lack hunger and thus have no need for physical nourishment under normal circumstances, though if they lack the magicules they need they can substitute it with meat and plants.
