The six of them sat in a carriage that carried them towards the next city. Gray grabbed a red crystal from Izuku's backpack and smashed it next to him so that Izuku could heal. Natsu, Wendy and Izuku just crumpled up in sickness while Gray was explaining to Erza, Happy, Carla and Lucy about what happened in the alleyway.

LH: "So Gray, what happened?"

GF: "I have no idea. Izuku kept on mentioning that there is a monster in the alley but I didn't see it."

ES: "Well, we can't ask him about it but I did hear that the city we're going to is filled with monsters so we can use this to our advantage so we could ask Izuku what it looked like and see if they looked similar to the ones there."

The five of them sat in silence whilst deep in thought.

The carriage stopped at the end of the road and they all departed. In front of them stood a city that they've never seen before.

"Hello there." Their attentions turned towards eight figures making its way towards the group. The figures got closer to reveal a female in formal clothing with purple hair, a horn and a large sword. A male in a red attire two red marking going down his eyes and two red horns. The next was a man with black markings in a lightning shape, blond hair, no shirt which reminded them of Gray but with a cloak. A man that has green skin and muscles. Then there was a man in formal clothing as well but he had black hair with a red streak and his eyes were black with yellow. Then there were two animals. One looked like a dragon while the other looked like a pig. Lastly, there was a young female that stood in the middle of them all. She had blue hair, black attires and a sword. "Welcome to Rimuru City. I am Rimuru Tempest. That is Veldora Tempest, my my sworn bestie. The rest are my subordinates. Shion, Benimaru, Diablo, Rigurd, Geld and Gabiru." He intriduced them all "So, how could we help?"

Erza equipped one of her weaker armour and stood there in a defensive position. "Why are you attacking nearby villages?"

RT: "Wha-what do you mean?"

ES: "There are reports that people have gone missing in a town nearby and they claim that it was a monster. The mayor there also mentioned that this was a nation of monsters as well."

Izuku watched Erza yell at them. He noticed that she could see them so that meant that either they were the ones that created them or they are not the monster. "Wait!" Izuku jumped in between the two groups as he realised something. "If they are monsters, then why do they look different to the one that attacked Gray and I?"

"Wait, you can see them?" Rimuru walked up to Izuku. His friends went into a battle stance and prepared for just in case if Rimuru was going to attack. "I've had some citizens that have randomly disappeared as well. We barely got to see them but all we know is that they didn't look human. Speaking of them, the humans that I know of are talking about how they can't see these monsters while the monsters here could. Let's head to the Council Hall and discuss matters there." Everyone nodded and began to make their way in.

The city was filled with many monsters that looked too happy to turn others into monsters. "This is one interesting place. I wonder if they have any celestial keys here." Lucy couldn't help but to look around.

The group made it to a large building at the end of the city. The interior were quite traditional considering the fact that the whole city was filled with monsters. The group arrived at a room which contained a long table with chairs on either side. At the end, there was a massive chair that they assumed was for Rimuru. Rimuru's subordinates sat on one side of the table while they decided to sit on the opposite side. "Now to begin the meeting. Izuku, would you tell me what this monster looked like to you?"

IG: "Well, it had two eye on the top of it's head. A lot of hair that covered it's body apart from the top. There were also long, pointy nails that it used to scratch me and hit me into the wall."

RT: "How about the rest of you. Have you seen this monster?"

ND: "Have not seen something that matches you description."

LH: "Don't know someone that has hair or eyes like that."

Ha: "Nope."

WM: "No never."

Carla shook her head.

GF: "Is that what Izuku saw?"

ES: "Sorry miss but we haven't seen anything like that."

RT: "Um excuse me but, I'm a boy."

The group just stared in Rimuru in surprise. "Well sorry about that but..." Rimuru didn't finish since he stood up and made his way outside.

"Rimuru sama, where are you going?" Shion immediately stood up and followed Rimuru. One by one, everyone else  followed so Team Natsu decided to follow.
