"Here is your room. If you need anything then just come to the counter and ask the staffs there." The lady said. "Thank." Lucy went inside to check his room out. It was small and not much space to move. He had to crouch in order for him to stay in the room. The bed was also small as it was design for average people only. Lucy decide to set his bed on the floor instead.

For now, Lucy will go out to sight see. Lucy was on his way to the shores as it look promising. Lucy got to the shores and was shock as it was even more beautiful than what he had expected. "If only my world have this kind of place." Lucy shake his head. Lucy retract his armor suit so that he can feel the ocean breeze. The ocean breeze was so nice that Lucy want it to be like this forever. "Come on Diana. We should go get some fish." Amelia said. "Okay, but how are we going to catch fish fast. I don't want to wait for the fish to take the bite." Diana said. "Don't worry we got the net. And did you bring the paper?" Amelia ask. "I do." Diana show Amelia the paper. "Keep it safe." Amelia said. Diana and Amelia walk towards the shores to throw the net. They got to the beach shores and set up everything. Amelia cast the net. It was very clumsy on the way how she did it. The net did not even open fully. "We should get some good catch since I have thrown it nicely!" Amelia said proudly. "Are you sure?" Lucy ask from behind them. This startle Diana and Amelia. They look back and saw Lucy. "Lucy!? Why are you here!?" Diana ask. "Going home of course." Lucy said. "You! Why did you leave us!? It was because of you that Gormon almost got kill!" Amelia shout at Lucy. "Is it really my fault though?" Lucy ask. "It is! If you did not leave us like a brat!" Amelia reply. "And who is the one that does not want me to make sure everyone is safe?" Lucy ask.

Amelia heard this and stay silent as she is in the wrong. "And who is the one that want freedom and not for me to make sure everyone is safe?" Lucy ask again. "Enough! Can you go look at my uncle Gormon. He suffer heavy injuries." Diana said. "Should I help? I mean... She did kick me out of the group." Lucy said. "Apologize auntie." Diana said. "No no. I don't want an apology." Lucy said. Diana and Amelia was taken aback by this. "What do you want then!?" Amelia ask. "Nothing. I want nothing and I don't care about your uncle." Lucy reply. "Then get out of here!" Amelia lost it there. "See... That is why I think that your uncle deserve what he get." Lucy said and walk away. "Auntie! He is the only hope of saving uncle! But you had to go and chase him away!" Diana shout at Amelia. "Tsk! He can't do anything at all." Amelia said. "You should know that uncle is on the verge of death. He is the only one to save uncle." Diana said. "I know but I don't think he can do anything also." Amelia reply. "He can! I put my life on it! He had create many miracle and he could do it!" Diana said. Diana chase after Lucy. "Lucy! Please wait!" Diana call out to Lucy. Lucy stop and turn around. "What is it?" Lucy ask. "Please! You got to help my uncle! I know that you're the only one to save him!" Diana beg Lucy. "Give me some good reason." Lucy ask. "Uhhh..." Diana does not know what to say to convince Lucy. "Oh! If you want to return home then you have to help my uncle!" Diana said. "That? I can always use brute force for it. Am I not correct...?" Lucy ask. "Can you not use brute force? I will offer my life in place of saving my uncle then!" Diana puff out her chest.

Lucy lower his face closer to Diana face. Lucy retract his helmet and look at Diana straight in her eyes. Lucy straighten his back and put his helmet back on. "Alright!" Lucy said. "Thank you!" Diana said and tears began to flow down Diana cheeks. "Hope you are ready for this." Lucy twirl a knife and hold it against Diana chest. "Stop!" Amelia threw an axe and cause Lucy to back off a few step. "Deals off then. Later then..." Lucy wave to them and walk away. "Auntie! What are you doing!" Diana shout at Amelia. "What are you doing!?" Amelia ask. "I offer my life so that uncle can be save!" Diana reply. "You're the princess and you are just going to offer your life like that!?" Amelia shout at Lucy. Diana push Amelia off and chase after Lucy. Amelia try to stop Diana but she ran pass her. "Diana! Diana!" Amelia chase after her. "Can you two stop bothering me?" Lucy ask. "Please Lucy! help my uncle!" Diana beg Lucy. "Was the deal not call off?" Lucy ask. "That was not me! Please! I'm begging you!" Diana said. "Alright alright... Take me to him." Lucy finally give in. "Really!? Come with me then!" Diana drag Lucy towards the city. Amelia chase after them and want to see what Lucy can do. They soon arrive back to the inn where Lucy is also staying at. Diana drag Lucy to a 2nd class room. *Knock knock* Diana knock on the door. *Creak* Jean open the door. Jean was shock to see Lucy here. "Quick! have a look at uncle!" Diana drag Lucy towards the bed.

Lucy got there and saw no injuries. "Where are the injuries?" Lucy ask. "Uncle did not get attack but was curse by a witch." Diana explain everything to Lucy. "Apparently after Lucy left them. They encounter many problem and have a lot of near death experience. They manage to reach this city but encounter a witch on their way here. She apparently them to offer her Jean. But they reject and she got violent. But Gormon quickly put her down with one slash and before dying. She curse Gormon and that he will suffer heavily. "I see..." Lucy use thermal vision to check Gormon out. Red appear everywhere on his body. "Just a fever." Lucy said. "Fever!?" The other ask as they have never heard of such thing. "It is when a person body is battling pathogen that enter the body and will cause harm to ones body." Lucy was using words that they have never heard from before. Lucy could see that they were confuse on what he is trying to say. "Let me rewords it. To put it simply, he is sick." Lucy said. "Sick!? He can't be! He is curse by a witch!" Amelia said. "Up to what you think. But I can't help him without having his consent and all of yours also." Lucy said. Everyone agree as they want Gormon to be cure. "Alright!" Lucy take out a syringe and cause everyone confusion. "Now... Don't reflect or move. Just relax. If you are a man then you can take a small pain." Lucy said. Gormon nod his head and relax his whole body. "Don't fear now." Lucy inject the syringe into Gormon arm. Gormon felt a small sting but did not move and just let it be. "All done! Just relax for a day and you should feel better." Lucy said. "That is it!?" They all ask. "Yeah! Simply as that." Lucy said. "Where are you staying?" Diana ask. "Does it concern you?" Lucy ask. "No..." Diana said. "I will see you all in the morning again." Lucy said. "Glad you join our group again." Diana said. "I did not say that I join. But I am just hanging out for fun as I can kill more people if I am near you all." Lucy then left to his room.
