Another enemy of note is the Metal Slime; it can actually give 1350 EXP for every one you defeat! But, it also has 999 Defense, 5 HP, complete immunity to all offensive spells, and a 30% chance of running away per turn; killing it before it runs is extremely unlikely with just Rex and Carver. You can do it, but it's recommended that you give it a miss for now; Rex and Carver do not need the help, and low levels are ideal for later Job Class grinding (more on that later). | Another enemy of note is the Metal Slime; it can actually give 1350 EXP for every one you defeat!

It's not useful to wear, but you can sell it for money; otherwise, you get nothing for your trouble. Whatever you do, head back to Port Haven. | ||

Johan WILL succeed, and nothing bad will happen to Ella; you can move on in peace. | ||
