A woman who died from overwork in her previous life is reincarnated as an immortal witch and is supposed to be living a slow life for 300 years, but as the title suggests, she ends up killing slimes and reaching the maximum level, something every RPG fan has thought about at least once, and she ends up running into a lot of trouble that disrupts her slow life. This is a homely comedy that depicts how she solves these problems and the little everyday incidents that occur.

Even after learning that she's reached max level without realizing it, she prioritizes her slow life over showing off her strength. She's a character who, in a good way, is unwavering in the sense that she would rather have her slow life fall apart than become stronger or be relied upon.

The Azusa family decides to quietly participate in the festival by opening Azusa's house as a cafe. Since maid outfits are a staple in cafes, Falfa and Shalsha all try them on, and Azusa's doting attitude is on full display as she repeatedly says cute things. Apparently, Harukara's large breasts are emphasized and she's quite lewd! I'd love to see it in the anime.

After arriving in the Demon World, the clumsy Harukara immediately makes a fool of the Demon King.

As expected, the Demon King is easily defeated by Azusa, whose stats have been maxed out. As expected of a max-level Demon King.

The Demon Lord, who had been feared until now, had apparently longed for someone stronger than himself, someone he could call "big sister," and fell for Azusa. He declared that he would obey anything Big Sister told him to, and readily agreed to her release from Harukara. What's more, the Demon Lord's favorite books are all yuri, making this scene seem unrealistically Demon Lord-like.

After accidentally eating poisonous mushrooms roasted by Harukara, Azusa turns into a child. Everyone changes their eye color and tries to comfort her, even the Demon King. This friendship is reminiscent of a slow-life scene.
