Void creatures, since invading their universe have brought chaos and death everywhere they went. Their presence alone was dangerous to humans, and to make matters worse, they were only susceptible to weapons made from magical energy.
While they were also classified into levels like those of hunters, the classes of void creatures were superior to hunters or awakened for that matter. A Class E void creature is more powerful than a Class E hunter.
Even the geniuses of the human race still struggle to take on void creatures corresponding to their class one-on-one. They normally had to team up with other hunters of the same class or a hunter of a higher class than the void creatures themselves had to take them.
This gap in power between void creatures and hunters only widens as the level increases. So far, humans have only come across Class A void creatures, and they were classified as the monsters of the bunch.
A single Class A void creature could destroy an entire galaxy within a decade if left alone. For Class A hunters to take them on, they had to accumulate damage to them continuously before they could kill them. Either that or a Class S hunter fights them, quickly defeating the void creature.
Now, imagine what a Class S void creature would be capable of. And while humanity had not encountered one yet, there was bound to be some out there. Their universe was not entirely explored as it was too big and while most of the regions in the universe were in chaos, they had not encountered one.
This had been one of the fears of humans over the millennia, but so far, nothing had appeared, pushing that thought far away.
A moment of silence settled in the control room as everyone waited for Zol to contemplate. His gaze was still on the feed, his thoughts unknown to the operators.
"When was this thing discovered?" He inquired after some time.
"We're not sure. The region where this phenomenon began was in a known location of a veil tear. The theory is that the veil tear in that region is what slowly turned into what we see right now."
"Mm." He acknowledged.
"What about Region 4? That galaxy is close to that region." He turned his gaze away from the display and focused on director Dirgg.
"Yes, region 4 is also aware of the issue and we believe their guardian has been notified."
[Yo, my man! What's up?]
Mason Lee, a Class S hunter and guardian of Region 4 in Sector 2 responded once he accepted the call.
Zol simply looked at the man in silence for a moment. Mason was a normal human with dark hair, and hazel eyes and had a height of 1.87m. He appeared easygoing and jovial, the direct opposite of Zol.
"You already know why I'm calling." He replied without a change in his expression.
[Yeah, I figured. But seriously man, you should be calling more often. I'm getting all lonely here you know...]
Mason began to rant about how Zol did not keep in touch, but Zol just waited for him to finish before continuing.
"Are you already in the region?"
[...] Mason had a blank expression on his face when Zol completely ignored everything he said and just went straight to business.
[You're no fun. How do you even get laid?] He questioned again, completely disregarding the question Zol asked before. However, Zol remained the same and waited for him to come to his senses.
[Tsk, whatever. I'm already at the location and I have to say, it's one spooky veil tear. The aura it's giving off is higher than normal.] He briefly said, his expression mirroring how he felt when he arrived there.
Zol observed his reaction with narrowed eyes. The mason he knew was always in a joking mood and never adopted a serious outlook except when he was engaged in a fight. He hardly ever showed fear as well, so whatever he felt from that veil tear must be very alarming.
'Hopefully, it won't be too problematic.'
"I'm on my way now. Expect me within the hour." Zol said and ended the call before Mason had the chance to switch back to his shenanigans.
