I’ve been killing slimes for 300 years, and Laika is calling herself a Dragon Lord?! That reminds me, she was victorious in a huge competition to decide that a long time ago. Now it seems that she intends on meeting the dragon race’s various masters and fighting them to grow stronger…!

After living a painful life as an office worker, Azusa ended her short life by dying from overworking. So when she found herself reincarnated as an undying, unaging witch in a new world, she vows to spend her days stress free and as pleasantly as possible. She ekes out a living by hunting down the easiest targets - the slimes! But after centuries of doing this simple job, she's ended up with insane powers...how will she maintain her low key life now?!

When you're level 99, finding time to relax can be the hardest part...After I died from overwork in my previous life, I decided keeping a good work-life balance in this one would be my top priority. I've been a lot busier ever since word got out that I'm level 99, but my world has also been getting bigger. Beelzebub is the most reliable demon I've ever met, Falfa and Shalsha are as adorable as can be, Laika is the best apprentice anyone could ask for, and Halkara is...well, Halkara is doing her best. Whether it's hosting a café, fighting ghosts in a factory, or even meeting a demon king, there's nothing we can't handle together! Still, what I'd rather be doing the most is enjoying my downtime. And I'm not about to forget the importance of taking life one step at a time!

When I first came to this world, I said I'd live a carefree, laidback life. Recently, I've been thinking about trading the R&R for quality time with my new family, but... Argh! First, Falfa gets stuck in her (admittedly adorable) slime form, then a witch cons me and gets me involved in a huge mess...! Why does this keep happening?!

The slime-slaying, max-leveled, immortal witch Azusa’s main goal in reincarnation is to live a laid-back life with her new family of four. But trouble comes knocking on her door when the elf Halkara arrives, seeking sanctuary from the demon Beelzebub...Will Azusa ever find peace?!

Welcome to the Witch’s House Café! Azusa’s life doesn’t seem to be slow or laid-back anymore. At least, not while maid cafés, factory hauntings, and invitations to prestigious demon award ceremonies are a part of it. But maybe that’s okay...?

Family, check. Trip to demon lands, check. Demon king meet and greet, che—Uh-oh. Azusa’s laid-back vacation is smashed to a million pieces when Halkara smashes into the demon king—just as the Great Slime prophesied. Can Azusa clear up the misunderstanding, or will it be off with Halkara’s head?

At level 99, raiding tombs just isn't the same...Ugh, Pecora is exhausting! When she said she wanted a "fluffy elder sister," I didn't think she'd actually turn me into a fox! Sure, I might have caused some trouble at the castle, but it was her fault! And then we went to explore some ancient ruins with Beelzebub and Fighsly, but of course, we can't ever have a normal expedition in this world...Still, it's the little things that make my laid-back life so fun. I even got to meet the goddess who reincarnated me again!(And naturally, Beelzebub herself has more stories to share about her [mis]adventures in the demon lands!)

I'VE BEEN KILLING SLIMES FOR 300 YEARS-AND NOW I'VE BROKEN THE LEVEL CAP?!I never needed to be this strong-all I did was fight a goddess! But life in this world is challenging no matter what your level is. Sandra shot up into a young woman pretty enough to make me jealous, I got lost on a deserted island, a "human" (who is definitely not a human) came to repay a favor, and Pecora discovered...livestreaming?!Stick around at the end of this volume for "Food for an Elf," detailing President Halkara's quest to find the perfect restaurant!

Aaaaand the secret to Falfa’s slimy condition is…she slept wrong! Good news-she can be fixed. Bad news? Only the famous slime martial artist, Fighsly, knows how! And so, Azusa’s gotta fight Fighsly…without magic! Can she pull it off?

Azusa just can’t catch a break! Between planning mushroom parties and visiting the World Tree, she’s busy, busy, busy…But a little adventure never hurt anyone-right?

Public Service x 1,500 Years + Pecora's Magic = Minister of Agriculture ​A DEVIL'S WORK IS NEVER DONE!Beelzebub is a demon of many roles—minister of agriculture, Azusa’s “big sister and the demon king's closest confidant. Before her illustrious rise to power, though, she was just a low-ranking pencil pusher in the government with no ambitions, no dreams, and no adventure in her life. Then, on a whim of the newly coronated demon king, she received the biggest and most terrifying promotion imaginable! How will Beelzebub handle the sudden responsibilities of the entire Ministry of Agriculture?! Originally published as short stories in the hugely popular I've Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years and Maxed Out My Level, the spin-off is back with brand-new illustrations and additional tales from the demon lands!

I’ve been killing slimes for 300 years, and now…I’m a slime?! …I mean, just inside a pocket sandbox world, though. I’m a bit worried about getting back home, but it’ll be an adventure anyway! This time, I also get my hair cut (no, not because of a breakup), go on a little date with my daughters, and watch sports in the demon lands…sort of. Not only that, but I also get another (slime) daughter! Plus, at the end of the book, company president Halkara shares more of her foodie adventures!!

After three hundred years killing slimes, I’m…going to sell them?! Well, the edible version anyway. Falfa was convinced my unique confections would win the top prize in a national sweets fair—and who am I to say no to my precious girl? We also came across a strange fortune-teller and joined my (step)daughter on an adventure (and hopefully bonded with her a little more!). Meanwhile, we learned what happens when Flatorte really cuts loose, and the results are pretty surprising!

For 1,500 years, Beelzebub has happily taken. it easy as a rank-and-file clerk. But her lazy lifestyle comes to an end when the new demon king suddenly promotes her to minister! Can she adopt the appearance and demeanor expected of the highest demon on the bureaucratic pyramid?

Beelzebub has at long last grown into her new position as minister. From auditing the territories of hostile aristocrats to renovating the cafeteria, she can handle it all. With things going so well, surely no one would object if she were to plan an office trip-er…a training excursion to a hot spring region to “sample” the local specialties, would they?

From corporate slave to a laid-back witch—reincarnation’s a pretty sweet deal! Or so Azusa believes until her maxed-out status comes to light...In this new manga adaptation of the original novel, enjoy the hilarity that ensues as Azusa attempts to evade all forms of adventure and regain her lazy life!

Party at the rock fest! Will the new Kuku be a hit after tweaking her music a bit…?! Meanwhile, sparks fly when Halkara meets a serious business rival…And what’s this about a fighting contest in Flatorte’s hometown?

After a few centuries as minister, Beelzebub has grown into the demon king’s most loyal and capable servant. It is while the two are traveling together that they happen to stop by the quaint little village of Flatta, home to a certain long-lived witch! What occurs in the forgotten first meeting of Beelzebub and Azusa?

WHO YOU GONNA CALL? …MORE GHOSTS?! As if this world couldn’t get any weirder, now we have UFOs—er, well, UFCs? Honestly, stuff like this should barely faze us by now, but my daughters are determined to get to the bottom of this mystery! What will it turn out to be...? In the meantime, I spread the joy of rice-based cuisine, go ghostbusting with some of our phantasmal friends (terrifying!), and set off across the sparkling seas to find a legendary sage! Meanwhile, Laika’s chaotic, battle-filled school days continue in The Red-Dragon Academy for Girls!

A LEISURELY WALK IN THE EMPTY WASTES... I’ve been killing slimes for 300 years, and now I’m finally going to meet the reaper?! I can’t say I was thrilled at the idea… but it turns out she’s not too different from this world’s other gods. I also take a trip in the demon lands with Pecora (it’s supposed to be “exciting and full of adventure ★” apparently) and clear a video game created by a goddess (video games in another world, huh?). Plus, Halkara accepts a challenge from a “phantom thief.” And stay tuned until the end to see Laika take her battles at the Red-Dragon Academy for Girls to the next level!

IT’S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN! I’ve been killing slimes for 300 years, and it’s already time to open our third annual Witch’s House Café! This time around, there’s a big problem, so I decide to tackle it with a secret strategy! Plus, we take some time to eat apples grown in the demon lands (the forbidden fruit!), play with ghost cats at a cat café, and meet an elder god deep underground. And after all that, I’ll share the scripts for two stories previously available only in drama CD format!

With the music fest over and done with, it seems like the slow, laid-back life Azusa’s always wanted is just around the corner! Or that was the plan at least…After all, what could possibly go wrong during celestial banquets or vacations with Beelzebub’s family?

At this point, Azusa’s just about given up on her slow, laid-back life. After all, with a house full of elves, dragons, spirits, and now plants, every day is a new adventure. So it’s time for Azusa to enjoy each wild escapade to the fullest!

It’s vacation time! Whether it’s a dip in the ocean, a visit to Halkara’s hometown, or an invite to the demon king’s birthday party, plenty of twists and turns are in store to spice up Azusa’s slow, laid-back life!

I've been killing slimes for 300 years, and my family has finally decided on my birthday! We didn’t have a date until now (mainly because I forgot it…), but my daughters are going to celebrate it with me this year, and I'm really, really excited! Later, I meet the goddess of fate (I can't be surprised anymore!), I help out a phantom thief (and my family grows), and I visit a strange land where there are no slimes! I'll share another short story from a drama CD at the end, so don't miss it!

The latest and greatest in the world of Azusa and fam—a sister’s wedding, a battle for who is the best dragon, and now a field trip to some ancient ruins! Nothing could possibly go wrong with any of that, right?

Although Azusa’s used to semi-weird things happening in her generally laid-back life, getting dragged into a celestial struggle by the goddess who reincarnated her is a bit much…

Why do strange things always seem to happen to me?I've lived in this world killing slimes for three hundred years...so how did I turn into a little kid?! I bet it was those mushrooms Halkara cooked...And now everyone in my family is trying to coddle me! Please cut it out! Not only that, but I have traveling minstrels, a World Spirit Summit, and even a demon music festival to worry about...Still, I'm not giving up on my laid-back life!
