Master Of None

1990 1990. Bait A demon?

"Reporting to the Genesis council of representatives. The floating city has left the borders of the controlled angel territories. Now it is nearing the beaches and islands off the coast. It is projected to be heading in to the unknown ocean. Hoover, there are further reports." 

The entire meeting room was full of stress. Being called for an emergency meeting in the middle of the night only two days after the largest wedding ceremony any of them had attended was not a good sign. But they had also expected something like this. 

Through the last few days, the floating city had been tracked by the best of the best. No matter who they were, the scouts had been gathered from every race. The information had been gathered and mapped constantly. 

With all of this effort, every single monster, undead, that had been seen was documented. Even sketches with detailed weapons and some elemental affinities had been documented. It would greatly help when the attacks on the floating city began. However, up to this point, there had not been a single instance of the created undead monsters attacking anything. The city had seemed weak. Just an observer of sorts. 

"A hundred or more slimes were dropped nearby the marsh lands. It appears that they are varying in affinity. Decaying slimes, acid slimes, poison slimes, and a few more slimes we can not get sight of just yet were seen. They have extremely aggressive tendencies. They are attacking anything and everything." 

"The angels have already moved to destroy them, but they are having a harsh time in doing so. The angels sent are finding that their control of mana is weakening due to the chaotic nature of corrupted mana around the area. It appears that there may be an infection spreading from these slimes." 

This made the entire room feel heavier. The entire party and every signal kingdom had some interaction with the slime breeder and the slimes that they created. Right now, they had known that the angels were hit next on the list. Even the wyverns had nearly missed their chance to become a race because a lord slime had been on the brink of killing their queen. 

Tragedy was all that this slime breeder could bring. Nothing more and nothing less. It was even worse that it appeared that the slime breeder had fully begun to attack everything and anything with their slimes. To the point that they had become infected with the corrupted mana causing problems all over the world. 

"We should focus our efforts on defeating them. Those that can use natural mana or follow steps to produce it should work to defeat the slimes." The human king was not present, but Markus Raven had greatly stood out as one of the leading forces helping with genesis growth. 

So much so that he was often met with many questions about the processing of paperwork and how to stimulate the new businesses applying every single day. It made him a versatile and sought after person. He even communicated to the human kingdom often to ensure that every single detail was shared to allow the best cooperation. It was why so many humans had readily been able to join Genesis lately. 

"I want to agree with you. But sending the mages would cause weakness elsewhere. we are not fully prepared to fight the slimes and the coyote if it continues to send down corrupted monsters." Scylla wished she could fight. She wanted to send armies upon armies to defeat the enemy. But that would be a family strategy. 

Fighting slimes and the city full of powerful corrupted undead that most likely could heal themselves? What a foolish idea. They had to focus their forces on one thing at a time. 

"We know the name of the slime breeder. The sin title of Envy. if it was Sloth, they would not be acting. And the demon lord is not the slime breeder. So, what can we find out about that?" Walker's opinion had come to this. He saw many other representatives sift through papers or have their aids run to them. 

He had not been the only one that wished for more information. "We know that the Sin title holders are considered the demon equivalent of lords so to speak. But the demons just focused on them since they mostly had these title holders. Not every single one was and has been a demon in the recorded history. Pride has changed and was even a human title holder once. It was recorded many years ago and only small bits appear." Markus Raven responded. 

"We have documentation that Lust appeared within the elves once upon a time. A rogue elf with darkness affinity. She caused a small village to fight one another for her enjoyment before she was handled. This information does not leave this room. We elves do hide some of our history for the betterment of the people." Everyone understood this. The forest elf queen shared this since she was still present for a meeting. She was also helping Alma learn. 

"Goblins can remember." silence fell across the entire room yet again. No one expected that the goblins, as a monster race that had once neared becoming a recognized race knew something. 

The history of the goblins was tragic. Ruined by the demons, specifically the sin title holders and demon lords, they had lost a chance to become a race. Then they fell in to servitude and nearly extinction because of that. After meeting the party, they and the gray haired spiders had gained their race from the world officially. 

"The ruins found. Many goblin bodies in them. Records from long ago." Everyone felt that they had not understood, but they had all seen documents from the ruins where the ant nest had been. 

This had been through the ruins that the ancient elves used. But it was easy to forget that places like that were naturally overrun with monsters. The goblins had managed to get in to a small portion. This had been a big deal for the goblins who were learning more of their own past and also creating a foundation for a future as a proper race. This included reaching out to the small villages to welcome them to the larger gathering within Genesis. 

"Envy wants. Envy as a goblin want all power of goblins. What does slime maker want? Strength from slimes? Can Genesis make new slime to show them?" the broken speech was easier to understand by the day. The rate that the goblins learned and adapted was proving to be amazing. But right now, the first goblin that Walker had met had just shattered the entire case they were stuck on. 

"Search every citizen record of Genesis and see if the tamer's guild can help.w e are going to do what we can to make a healing or a light slime. Two slimes that we are certain that the slime breeder did not make and has not used yet." the order went out to everyone. The room became a flurry of conversation and movements. Many aids rushed in and out as information was gathered. 

From what everyone had seen, it went from a single room full of important figures with a lot of stress on their shoulders, to a massive office of people looking for a needle in a haystack. 

"We can stop for now. The adventurer's guild recently welcomed in another demon. It may be coincidental, but it appears that some demons are very good at taming slimes compared to other monsters. This young man was recommended by one of Ventus's children. They managed to tame a fire slime while a rampaging monster attacked their village. The boy impressed the young dragon and they are apparently friends now." 

"Clara looked like she was winning a massive competition. Especially since this was a tamer that had been brought over to the adventurer's guild and not to the tamer's guild. A major event to say the least. 

"So, we have the tamer, now we need slimes and whatever materials we can get. Elise. Work with Clara to prepare. I think everyone else knows what to do?" Walker's smile was all that everyone needed. The other representatives were surely prepared to do the most that they could. 

"Our lady lord will be joining us shortly after her recent trip to the villages. The elders will settle soon. I believe there will also be more warriors beside me when we are prepared." This meant that Rise would be returning to Genesis again. She had left for the elder's villages. Now she would be here to help. She would also be the best person to help create a slime that relied on light. 

"With The cathedral helping, we should succeed sooner than later." Walker was even more motivated now. It was time to prepare bait.
