By default, all Monsters want to seduce and join with humans. So, that means the Parasite Slime would have to see all Humans as a neutral target by default. The entry says the Slime only attacks foreign enemies so a human would have to make the Slime their enemy first which the menas that a Human would have to attack the Slime. In this case, it would be self defense every time.

As for animals, I'd imagine it's pretty similar to how we treat animals now. I'd kill an animal if I had to eat but that doesn't mean it was my enemy.

Also, eliminate doesn't have to mean kill. If you were a monster fighting a human trying to kill you and you seduced him, you would have technically eliminated the enemy. This discussion is actually very relatable to the update that I posted at the bottom. Give it a read and you'll understand why the Slime's profile still makes sense (Specifically read the part about Japanese valuing context over literal definitions).
