Will of chaos

Chapter 1276 Cap 1274: Detective Zenos part 1

The next day after arriving on this nameless Planet, I bought a house or should I call it an apartment. 

In this world, each city is colossal, occupying a space of 50 thousand km², which is why there are few cities on this planet, less than 20 cities from what I heard, with each one being controlled by the same government system made by what they call a dome, where there are even 10 Elders elected based on their capacity. 

The dome does not govern the cities, it only maintains order between the various races and keeps the city organized, the laws here are also very simple and basic, even the currency here is the common one throughout the universe, not having its own currency, they do not have in even an army since there are no wars here. 

All this is basic information that everyone knows, Elizabeth told me about it, cities are very big, but the number of people is still very large and therefore the value of land is very high since cities do not like to expand out of fear to displease the planet, which is why there are few houses built with most people living in apartments. 

The location I chose was a little expensive as it occupied the entire floor, but this meant I had fewer neighbors and I was allowed to put whatever defense I thought was best inside the apartment. 

I left the defense to Irina who is the expert, in the meantime we made preparations for a long-distance teleportation ritual for when the others arrive, which shouldn't take long as they are preparing for it. 

"How is everyone?" (I) 

"Hela is refining the bone base into a magical item, but she should finish it soon, everyone else is already inside the Dungeon, as soon as Hela finishes it, all you have to do is summon Nix here." (Irina) 

"They are used to changing locations, their efficiency in preparations is very good." (Elizabeth) 

"I just don't know the reason for this Teleportation Ritual, wouldn't it be better to open the Dungeon here?" (Irina) 

"No, this place has a lot of strong people, we are investigating things and I don't want to attract attention." (I) 

"A Dungeon causes a vibration in the nature around it and one slightly interferes with the space around it, ordinary people may not notice it, but others will notice it." (Elizabeth) 

"It would also be strange if the number and variety of people coming and going from this apartment increased a lot, so you will set up a separate base somewhere else, far away from anyone's prying eyes." (I) 

I summoned Irina here with a blood magic that uses our Father and Daughter lineage bond to summon her, something Elizabeth helped me with as it was her specialty. 

"Within 2 days at most we will be able to implement the plan." (I) 

"As I said before, it all depends on you, my contribution will be minimal and following your instructions." (Elizabeth) 

"This is not the time for your tests, Elizabeth." (I) 

"This Evil God is killing Spirits and Sacrificing people." (I) 

"I understand, but this is still a rare opportunity for you, I can't always be by your side, investigation is something useful for a leader to know." (Elizabeth) 

"Depending on the Evil God's strength, it will also be in your hands to deal with him." (Elizabeth) 

"Your damn tests..." (I) 

----------------- 

During our time in the city, Elizabeth didn't tell me anything about this city and Planet without me asking first, but she also doesn't know everything, this particular city didn't exist the last time she was here over 1000 years ago according to her. 

Because of this, it has been difficult to obtain information, looking for something in a normal-sized city is one thing, but this city is the size of an entire region of a country. 

There are many streets and people, every corner of this place is full of people and the districts are not very separated, many of the buildings have shops and warehouses on the ground floor along with 1 or 2 upper floors and when all the other floors upwards are used like apartments. 

I don't know where to start looking and we don't have people to deal with this to this day, that's because it's been two days and I can finally call my helpers. 

"< Familiar Summon: Nix >" (I) 

My Aura emanates from my body as it joins with my Spiritual Energy in Runes in specific patterns as Nix's illusory image appears, slowly becoming more realistic, after a few seconds and a large amount of my Spiritual Energy reserves Nix's body becomes tangible as she smiles at me. 

"Master, how is your mission going?" (Nix) 

"Horrible, for starters, I don't know where to start without attracting attention, I'm also not sure where to start and this damn city is unnecessarily big." (I) 

"They cannot spread across the world, areas have been given to people to occupy, but mirroring many cities or building roads is impossible." (Elizabeth) 

"That's why the best way between cities is in orbit." (Elizabeth) 

"Nix, I need you to bring Lilian and her children, I also need Elsaris' family including Samira, also don't forget Kira and her subordinates." (I) 

"I'll take care of it, but is this a good place?" (Nix) 

"Yes, the defenses were put up by Irina, I think even I would have difficulty breaking into that apartment." (I) 

After that, we all talked together, plus my other Family members and Servants who decided to come along, I explained everything about the mission and our target, at least what I knew so far. 

After that I divided them into groups, Cinthia will be alongside Elsaris and her family to investigate the criminal world of this city, the Evil God will not do anything personally, he will probably have a small organization that functions as his religion acting in his name and must rely on criminals for various situations, I need a knowledgeable eye in this area of which I found nothing in this city. 

Haku will be together with Lilian and her family to get the general overview of the city as well as put together a map of the city, the races that are found here, the type of commerce, the latest news from the last few months as well as other general things to use as basis for investigation. 

Hades will be part of Kira's group and her subordinates, their job will be to investigate the adventurers who act as guards and the government, I don't want anything confidential, I want them to look for irregularities and corruption, from what the Spirit told us this Evil God is sacrificing people, I don't think he's doing it with few people, so I suppose a lot of disappearances have been happening, so it doesn't become talked about in town and there being no news about it could mean it's being covered up, I could also be completely wrong and already are being investigated, even so trying to find out what the government knows is a step closer to the target. 

I am using my Divine Servants since I can always be in contact with them due to our connection, no one would be able to notice this allowing a centralized flow of information in me in real time. 

I didn't make them leave the apartment together, I made them all enter my shadow before letting them leave in different parts of the city where I didn't feel anyone else's eyes. 

---------------- 

The next day, at night. 

I was with someone with amputated limbs beneath my foot, my Aura being used to emphasize my killing intent as I look at his face. 

"Tell me now, why are you kidnapping people?" (I) 

"Please, I don't know anything, I'll just take it to the indicated place... HHAAAHHHHHH!!!!" 

"..." 

"That's number 12, none of them knew anything..." (Samira) 

"No, you found a clue, investigate this person, track everything he has done in the last few months, I want to know everything." (I) 

"Give this to Cinthia to investigate, she will know what to do." (I) 

"Okay, then I'm leaving." (Samira) 

From the results of the investigation, it showed a large number of missing people, from young to old of all races, but in recent months the number of Spirit Contracting Adventurers has been very high. 

Samira has been giving me packages of people for further interrogation, only those who resisted Elsaris' "kind" conversations, most of the time I realized that these people were lying, but it was possible to see the fear in their eyes and in some cases the cruelty. 

But this one was different, I noticed that his eyes became cloudy many times whenever he was going to answer something, and when I used my Aura on his body I noticed a reaction of Spiritual Energy within his body, it was a curse directly affecting the Soul, I needed to kill them to extract this fragment of Spiritual Energy that I froze in a crystal from my blood, that's what I threw for Samira to take, Cinthia will be able to use this to track our next target. 

"Finally a clue..." (I) 

This city is a dangerous place, Hades gave me reports every hour, that's how I discovered the number of disappearances, they are normally quite spread out with nothing out of the ordinary if it weren't for the trail of missing Adventurers increasing in recent months, it was this clue which led Elsaris to this bastard from whom I got this later clue. 

"A Slave Rune with a sense of the power of a Spiritual Authority seems like a solid list." (I)
