I've Been Killing Slimes For 300 Years and Maxed Out My Level!
"Hi!" Venus smiled when the woman answered the door, "The villagers said you were a powerful witch, and...,"
"Argh!" the woman yelped and slammed the door.
"Well, that's a thing...," Venus murmured and knocked again.
This time a young woman with red-ginger hair and, oddly, black horns answered. "You aren't here to challenge Mistress, are you?" Laika demanded.
"No?" Venus blinked.
"Oh thank god..." a third voice muttered.
Venus found herself being served tea by apologetic ladies. There was the witch herself, her dragon apprentice, her elf apprentice, and her two ghostly daughters.
"Sorry about that," the witch, Azusa, apologized.
"Ever since word of Mistress being maximum level got out, there's been a steady stream of random adventurers and such coming here and challenging her," Halkara explained, the bosomy elf bringing in a plate of cookies.
"I see," Venus nodded. She looked at Azusa, "How did you manage that?"
"Three hundred years of killing 25 or so slimes a day," Azusa explained.
"Three HUNDRED," Venus blinked.
"Yes?" Azusa looked at her oddly.
"Why did you want to know?" one of the two twin girls asked.
"I was looking for a somewhat quick way to increase my power," Venus admitted.
The other apprentice, who it turns out was a dragon, gave her a sympathetic look. "I was like that," Laika noted, "but I've decided slow and steady wins the race."
"Conceded, but I don't HAVE three hundred years," Venus admitted.
"What about the demons?" the other twin asked.
"Demons?" Venus asked warily.
Halkara noted, "They are much more physically powerful. Maybe they have a fast training?"
"Huh," Venus muttered,
"I can write you a letter of introduction," Azusa offered. She added wryly, "They like me, for some reason."
"Well, it might be interesting," Venus conceded.

"To face Beelzebub, first you must defeat her subordinates!" the two women declared.
The two leviathans (!) had dark blue hair and were taller than Mamoru, interestingly enough. And both women were racked, bluntly. Venus was kind of envious.
"Uff!" Venus grunted as she blocked a punch one handed.
"Eeehh!" Vania looked surprised. "You're that strong?"
Fatla blinked as the more serious one said, "My turn."
Venus braced herself as the other woman charged, then grabbed her arm. She used a judo throw and sent her crashing to earth.
"Ha!" Vania laughed.
"That wasn't fair," Fatla scowled.
"All's fair in love and war," Venus quipped.
Fatla closed with Venus, the two swiftly exchanging powerful blows. Neither used their powers, just skill, and seemed very evenly matched. Finally Venus got a punch past Fatla's guard and sent her staggering backwards.
"Nicely done." Fatla conceded. "Miss Beelzebub?" she called.
"Very nice," the white haired, slightly tanned looking demoness smiled. She was dressed like a female RPG adventurer, with light armor that was also a skirt. "I am Beelzebub, Minister of Agriculture for the Demon Kingdom."
"Sailor Venus, intradimensional traveller," she introduced herself.
"So why have you come to the kingdom?" Beelzebub asked.
"I was hoping you had a magical way of increasing someone's power," Venus admitted.
All three looked at her blankly. "Training," Vania blinked.
"Training," Fatla agreed.
"LOTS of training," Beelzebub added ruefully.
"Ugh," Venus groaned. "Sorry for the trouble," she raised the Time Key and disappeared...
The pretty blonde with huge ram horns appeared from behind a tree. "She left already?" Provat Pecora Aeies, the pretty Demon King pouted.
"It appears so," Beelzebub noted. Frankly, she was happy the mysterious woman hadn't gotten tangled up with Pecora.
"Oh poo," Pecora sighed.

The Plutos continued their search for Venus.
Plutotron, sadly, had to stay with Crystal Cybertron. "These crossover universes are even less stable than most," the transformer explained frankly.
"Be careful about breaking that fourth wall," Doc Pluto muttered.
"And I have to help protect the realm from Beryltron and her Deceptimoon."
"What," Doctor Pluto blinked, then decided she just didn't want to know.
"Good luck!" Plutotron added.
So they all piled into the TARDIS and headed out again.
Sailor Pluto was attempting to use her Time Staff to track Venus, but there was a lot of interference. Similarly, Doctor Pluto wasn't having much luck with her time console...
Doc Pluto pushed up her sunglasses. "We need my car," she declared.
Everyone else: "NO."
Doc just grumbled. "How about your time shield?" she asked Magi Pluto.
A bit sheepishly Magi Pluto admitted, "Other than accessing the Time Gates, I'm limited compaired to Sailor Pluto."
Doctor Pluto frowned, "That's a odd reading..."
Suddenly the whole TARDIS jerked wildly, nearly knocking them all off their feet.
"What was that?" Sailor Pluto yelled as she grabbed a control panel.
"We're doing an emergency re-entry!" Doctor Pluto answered, "No idea why?"
They finally stopped, and Doc Pluto cautiously cracked the door. "Huh," she blinked.
"Got you, you time travelling bastard!" Rick Sanchez yelled.
"RICK?!" Sailor Pluto recognized the voice immediately.
The tall, gangly grey haired scientist's eyes widened. "Oh fuck," he blinked.
Sailor Pluto burst from the TARDIS and charged, swinging her staff at his head. "YOU BASTARD," she yelled.
"Wha wha what did you do?" the boy yelled as they both dodged.
"Nothing THAT bad, Morty," Rick lied.
"Who...?" Doc Pluto looked at the others.
Doctor Pluto replied, "Rick Sanchez. Mad scientist, basically... I think something he did rippled my TARDIS out of the time stream."
"Pluto, don't kill him," Magi Pluto helped restrain their counterpart. "Get him to talk, then kill him."
"No helping." Morty complained.
They (eventually) found put Rick was trying to catch a time traveller that was messing with his history.
"It's Summer," Sailor Pluto noted, "she's doing it in revenge for all the crap you will put her through."
"WHAT," Rick and Morty both yelped.
Sailor Pluto ignored that as she continued, "Stop acting like a dick towards her, and her future self won't want revenge."
Doctor Pluto picked up the surprised Rick by his labcoat, "Now, one warning. Do NOT screw with Time. I allow your dimension jaunting, but do not screw with the time stream."
"Yes, ma'am," Rick squeaked. "I'll destroy the time beacon I built."
"Let's go. We have a Venus to catch," Magi Pluto sighed.
Morty and Rick watched the TARDIS disappear. "Should we tell them that Venus was here yesterday?" Morty asked.
"Hell no," Rick growled, taking a hammer to the time beacon.
To be continued...
