Death came on swift wings. A soul, blessed by a goddess, falls to the land and enters his new life. He clings to a single memory, the defining moment of his previous life. Now he learns how to succeed in his new life as a new dungeon heart. To become the best dungeon he can be, he partners with the one existence all dungeons need: his bonded dungeon pixie.

Nice story. Well read.

Have you ever watched a movie series made by someone who has never watched a movie, but had someone explain what a movie is to them? That is the nutshell of The Slime Dungeon Chronicles as a whole. It is an Isekai story written by someone who has the basics of an Isekai explained to them but doesn't have any experience with the subject matter at hand.
Characters are written without consideration for consequences, cohesion, or a sense of fairness in the world. Things just happen and favoritism from the writer is on the rise. Have a backstabbing, lying, manipulative character? Everyone relates to them and even praises them and never figures out their two-faced nature. Have a cautious, strong-willed, and thoughtful character? They will get their plans undermined, destroyed, and picked on by their allies for their small list of shortcomings constantly. It is like the writer felt that characters who they liked as main roles could do no wrong, and childishness, irresponsibility, and selfishness were praised the entire book through for the side of the protagonists while the antagonists got "Deus Ex Machina" out of the story when their establishing storylines for the main cast were finished.
This book was free and for obvious reasons by the time I got to book two or three in the series. The evil types of characters are well set up for you to hate them, which brings you into the perspective of the protagonists, but otherwise, you get lazy scenes where a character is an absolute jerk to someone else and only gets praised for it from the writer's point of view through other characters. In the end? The unrealistic portrayal of socialization in an isekai fantasy novel is a key element that is missing from this series. The idea is that it is someone or something relatable at base in a different world adapting and growing in it. In this series? Their adaptation and some of the characters they meet fail to grow or even become likable or relatable.
So the dungeon gets stronger, and the supporting cast gets stronger, but no one ever grows as a person. Liars stay liars with no punishment, those who stand up for good get ignored, and deus ex machina saves the day. There are only maybe two characters out of a cast of 40+ that are named and important that ever grow, change, and learn outside of power level increases, and it's a poor showing.
It's a decent attempt at a story. Would have been nice if the people made sense and matched the gravity of their situations instead of spending so much time picking on each other and acting childish, even for a book imho meant for the 16-20-something demographic.
A story that misses key elements
