Ienis almost didn't slow down. Sure, he paused long enough to not run into Baleron, but honestly, slimes were one of the less serious threats in the world. With Ienis' power to shield himself and his swordsmanship training as a guard, they had approximately the threat level of a three year old child brandishing a lollipop. He did however fully recognize that an unarmed civilian would have no way of fighting back against a slime, due to the fact that they basically just rsn over you with their somewhat acidic bodies and digested you on the spot, he proceeded carving a path. He had to stoop a little to slice in a logical way for how small they were, but he didn't miss when he swung his sword.<br/><br/>Priority number one was getting to the person who was in distress down here, so he made sure to keep his speed up regardless of whether or not he had killed them all yet.
