"A few hours ago an elf with a rank of B-Rank rampaged at the adge of the city, because of this most of the city's officer's were told to keep guard the cities edges

With the slime locked down at the cities edge the officers moved closer to its last seen location while the soldiers marched into the passage to kill those slimes

And with the number of officers low in the city some greedy people committed crimes, the ratman was seen among the individual that were causing chaos in the city..."

"What happened to the ratman?" The orge with a scar on it right eye spoke while Lucy stood next to it

The goblin pushed back its glasses and spoke "the last report we have says that it vanished"

The orge tapped it fingers on the chair "continue" the goblin nodded

"Now with the soldiers marching out of the city, the slimes suddenly appeared in the city and they rampaged in the city" the goblin flipped a page

"With the slimes running wild in the city and no one to defend the city the blood mage Uzil moved to suppress the slimes as the only commending officer that remained in the city but"

The ogre stopped tapping its chair "but what?"

"The city ceiling crumbled" the goblin looked up at the ogre sitting across the table "Sir that where the report ends"

It clenched to the papers "we have tried to contact the city but failed everytime"

"In our heart we should all pray for their souls" Lucy glared at the ogre as it spoke "if I had teleported there instead of dealing with the slimes at the city gates they would have survived" the ogre looked back at Lucy

"Is that what your thinking?" Lucy didn't answer as remembered telling the ogre to head to the city when they received the report about Vice

"Regardless of how you feel the city still stands" the ogre looked at the goblin "what about the water system"

The goblin flipped through the pages and pushed back its glasses "the water system is no longer contaminated but some people have fallen ill because they drank the uncontaminated water"

"Are they at risk of dying?" The ogre tapped its fingers on the chair

"No Sir" the goblin spoke

"Confine those who have fallen ill until we know what they have is infectious and tell them to pray" the ogre turned to Lucy "you will be responsible for moving every person from the other cities to this one"

"But first I want you to alter the machine guns in every city to fire automatically then put every speaker you can find in the city near the walls playing different songs and movie's" the orge turned to the goblin

"You can leave" the goblin saluted then walked to the door while Lucy kept staring at the ogre

The door shut and Lucy mouth opened "what is your plan?"

She walked to the other side of the table as the ogre reached for the papers on the table "Lucy have faith in the lord"

Lucy bit her lip as he read through the papers ignoring her presence, she stomped her foot and walked to the door

"Also put recorders in every city wall" she looked back but he kept staring at his papers, she sighed and walked out of the office

Despite haven't seen each other for many years he never showed any emotions when he saw her, his cold demeanor bothered her but she could waste time trying to understand him as she now had to face the difficulty of being a single parent

She walked to the leather chair outside his office and sat down 'how am I supposed to take care of child when I'm barely struggling to keep myself together'

She grabbed her hair as she stared at the tiled floor as the memory of Utal daughter filled her mind, every time she went home she would be greeted by her puffy eyes

She had tried to cheer her up but failed when the child saw her cry as well, she sighed letting go of her hair and leaning back to the chair

"How did he do it?" she spoke under her breath as she looked up at the grey ceiling remember all the times Utal was happy to head home to see his daughter

Hereyes filled up with tear, she had buried herself in work avoiding going home just to avoid that sad child yet deep down choice was eating at her as she knew the pain of being left alone to deal with grief

"Captain" she jerked off the chair wiping away her tears with her back against Dexter

"Captain are you ok?" She turned and forced a smile

"Im fine" the edges of her smile shock while her eyes teared up

Dexter sighed "you should take a break captain"

"Hey I'm no longer your captain" she spoke with that wavering smile on her face while her tears threatened to fall

Dexter walked to the chair next to the window while she wiped her eyes "regardless you should take some time off"

"No I have thing to do I can't leave" she buried her eyes in her forearm trying to cover the tears

"You remember how you said your father made you feel when you lost your mother" he stared out of the window as she pulled back her mucus

"I wish I could say I know your pain but I would be lying" he turned to her and looked at her red eyes "and now you have grieving child at home things must difficult"

"That why you need to take a break" he stepped closer to her "if not for yourself do it for the child, don't let her feel how you felt when you lost you mother"

She said nothing as he hugged her "take some time off to figure out your life and its just one or two days" she nodded in his chest

Her tears falling on to his suit

*********

While Lucy was crying, in a place that was once filled with sand now filled with rivers of lava and ashy ground

Vice felt as if he could cry as he looked at the pink slime sleeping on the floor

Being unable to kill someone that had tormented him filled his eyes with tear as he looked at the snoring slime

"It should be there" he clenched to his dagger looking at her slippery breast hoping that her core would be there

He took a step toward her and in an instant fell to his knees

"Thud"

As he felt his heart betray him and threatened to killing him for having a thought for the 567 time

Vice was trapped in a cruel cycle where he would attempt to kill the slime and his heart would threaten to kill him for trying

He felt as if it was karma and yet he felt conflicted because he couldn't find a single thing that made him deserve this level of karma

As he growned on the ground his blurry eyes looked at the dagger waiting for the pain to stop so he could do it for the 568 time

As his eyes bleed Vice was hopeful that he would succeed on his 568 attempt
