The news regarding the complete disappearance of every slave within the city under only a single night was already spreading everywhere, many people woke up to their bosses' corpses shredded into pieces, and with none of their slaves present.
There wasn't even a single slave left, even the smallest slave belonging to a lonely space pirate was gone from the entire city, and every slave working at the factory was also gone, none of the security cameras that could had caught what happened were left without being destroyed.
The news reached the higher ups very quickly, as the few God-Realm people that governed over large groups of Space pirates quickly learned about this entire incident, feeling something very dreadful about it.
The four Gods that resided in this city quickly gathered in the largest building, an enormous tower, and quickly began to discuss what had just happened.
The four Gods were nothing but extravagant in their own looks, all four of them belonged to different races, and only one of them was an actual human.
"Thank you, everyone, for gathering here. I have called you here due to the newest incident that had ever happened in this entire planet, actually… Valen-sama had already been informed about this. So he gave the green light for this urgent meeting… Now, let's immediately discuss this…"
A white-skinned man with pale gray eyes and short gray hair started the conversation, he wore a formal, white-colored suit, with silver-colored shoes, he was a simple human, but the power he emanated within him contained a certain special divinity…
"I've never liked your stupid meetings, Silver, this entire thing is more than just a little thing we all gather to talk about, we are workers for Valen, so we should be moving our asses and trying to catch the damn bastards that stole our slaves! This is a fucking terrorist attack! They also killed like a few thousand of the people that held these slaves, what are we going to do over it?!"
The second in this place was a green-skinned and incredibly burly man, an Orc… Indeed, it was an Orc man that had achieved Godhood, a man known as the Ravager on his original planet, who singlehandedly ravaged entire other tribes of demi-humans and made of Orcs one of the strongest species in such a small planet. A barbarian that had ascended to godhood, and his power was nothing to scoff at.
"To be expected of my fellow barbarian, Brutus, would you shut the fuck up? Silver is trying to assess things formally and you ruin everything with your stupid personality and how smelly you are… Can't you get out of here? You're an eyesore."
The third person in this place was a woman. A sharp-tongued woman at that with purple-colored skin and sharp knife-like ears, glowing pink and purple eyes and a slender and tall figure, almost as tall as Brutus, she had a long, purple-colored hair, and wore tight black clothes, with many knives attached around her wide hips. She belonged to the Moon Elf race and was a cold-blooded assassin.
"What did you say, you knife elf rat?! Silver, I swear to everything in this Galaxy, if Lucia keeps talking shit to me, I am going to fucking kill her!" roared Brutus, hitting the ground with his foot.
"Oho? Try it then, shithead!" said Lucia, the Moon Elf woman was incredibly sharp-tongued and devoid of any manners.
Silver sighed as he waved his head, his silvery-gray eyes looked at the two in hopelessness.
"(They're such a troublesome pair… But their power is commendable, they're indeed at the last Ranks of God-Realm, and are the closest to reach the Realm that Valen-sama is had reached… I suppose this city has a great strategic territory as it is located near the shore… But to think that Valen-sama's decision-making capabilities would end up making him think that it was a good idea to mix Brutus and Lucia together… It is rather notorious how he doesn't even inspect the personalities and traits of his workers aside from their strength…)" thought Silver.
"T-This… E-Everyone…"
Suddenly, the shy voice of a small-looking girl resonated across the large room, the three tall figures eyes glowed brightly as they looked at the last and fourth member of this committee, a young-looking girl with pale-white skin, incredibly pale at that, bright aquamarine-eyes, short bobby-styled black hair, and black-colored tear-shaped marks below her eyes, wearing a black and purple hoodie and a miniskirt, with tight black stockings wrapping around her slender and small legs. She held a large black staff, holding a gigantic purple jewel on top of it.
This "girl" wasn't a young kid, but was in fact a woman well beyond the age of everyone here… Her race simply did not aged much, she was a Banshee.
"Ernesticia, yes?" asked Silver.
"I am quite surprised… I had not believed it when I heard it… To think that there was someone capable of escaping my detection… Whoever took away every slave and also killed these people must be at the same level as us, at the bare minimum, but I doubt it was just only one person, it might be many…" she said.
Brutus and Lucia looked at Ernesticia with intrigue.
"You're right, now that I think about it, I should had picked up something when they were doing the deed, but I couldn't detect a single shit. What's going on in here? Who was capable of doing this so easily?" wondered Brutus.
"T-That's why… I think it might be a large group of powerful Gods…." Said Ernesticia.
"I am amazing at detection yet I couldn't find anything… It was as if darkness itself showed up and swallowed these slaves away… Someone or something… capable of becoming darkness did it…" said Lucia.
"So you suggest that a Darkness attribute god did it? Hm… Interesting." Said Silver, his eyes flashed with bright white light as he crossed his legs.
"How can we even find them if they're so sneaky though?" asked Brutus.
"It will certainly not be easy… But I think there might be ways…" said Silver.
