"It is time for the God of Justice and his followers to get a taste of what it felt like to be targeted and eliminated" Said Rahz.
The group walked back to the town and used the flying mount service to reach the following town. Rahz was loving the feeling of flying and bowed to get himself a powerful one, Rahz loved the feeling of air on his face, the feeling of freedom and when the creature descended, the speed was amazing.
The towns where the flying mounts were available also had Silverwing Auction Houses on them and were run by the devoted followers of Odos. Rahz and Midori acted their part and Mycroft received the communication once more which alerted him to the anomaly that was occurring but not being there to witness what was going on, put a blanket over his eyes.
"Hmm.. Maybe it was a False alarm and the ones in the other town were just different people. That bastard... trying to get my enchanted item, but is a good time to get him to owe me one for failing the task".
Mycroft tried to communicated with the office in the first town he received a call from but was unable to get in contact with anybody at the site for a couple of days. When the call finally went through, the voice on the other end was one that he had heard before but he couldn't place a face on it.
"Who is this?"
"This is Mycroft from the office at the town of Naas, I was looking for the director. Who am I speaking with?"
"Omega"
"Omega!!! Hello Sir did something happened?"
"Everyone from the branch disappeared over night and we are investigating the events. Did you speak with the director over the past couple of days?"
"I did speak with him 5 days ago but was unable to communicate again until now."
"What did you talk about?"
"He wanted to buy an enchanted item in my possession but I said that it wasn't for sale so I was trying to see if he would be interested on a different item"
"It wasn't because he found a few members of the Demon Squad and try to get the item as compensation for them?"
Silence…
With a trembling voice mycroft responded, "I thought he was crazy Sir, there was no way that they would appear after 4 years, I swear I was not looking for them"
"I sure hope that is the case, apparently their souls never made it to Lord Odos realm but one thing is for sure they are all dead".
Hmm…
Mycroft hang up with Omega and was sweating bullets, that was not the only time somebody called to say the members of the demon squad were in their town. He quickly scrambled to get in contact with the second director that had called to report but he got nobody to answer the call. There was no way for him to go there himself and the only thing he could do was to wait for another call from another town to join the dots together but the called never came"
5 days later…
"Hello Mycroft, this is Omega".
"Omega Sir, what can I do for you?"
"There has been another incident in a town connecting via taxi service and looks like the killers are using it to move around. According to the reports, the locals went to denounced two members of the demon squad to the Auction House director and then they remembered seeing the whole of the Auction House forces surround the tavern the so call Demon Squad members were staying at. Apparently, they went to see the show but all they remembered was waking up in the middle of the street the next day and all the members of our faction were gone".
"Sounds like the work of an illusionist at least close to the fourth tier"
"That is exactly right Mycroft, Do you think this Demon Squad of yours could be behind the attacks?".
"No sir. The Demon Squad is a low 20's team and according to all the information we have there was not a single illusionist among them"
"I believed so too and already called for backup, the attacks could continue so stay alert we know the next town but we probably are going to be late. Looking at the path they are taking they should hit Naas in about a month".
The rumors of the Grim Reaper slaughtering the people of the Silverwings Auction House spread like wildfire and very soon all the auction houses around started closing their doors and going into hiding whether they were close to the incidents or not. This was another blow to the God of Justice as the Auction was the money maker for the organization and since they had to shut down for the time being, they took a financial hit.
While the God of Justice was scrambling to contain the loses, Rahz's group was gathering together in an inauspicious Inn of a small town far away from the ones that had being hit before. Rahz had used the name of the Demon Squad for the first two town to draw the people in the auction out but for the next two he just barsh in and started his vengeance but only on the Elites like the director and the paladins responsible for his protection.
Rahz was now Level 22 thanks to all the juicy XP and Rewards from the Realm that came in the transformation of his body that was becoming as solid as mithril ore and the changes to his perception were like nothing he had experienced before. His level 20 milestone gave him the power to actually see as well as sense the Elements that made up nature.
The fourth town they hit showed signs of readiness when it was attack by Rahz and the others so they knew the jig was up and it was time to lay low for a while and that translated in given Rahz the opportunity to go hunting for beast in the wild.
"It is pandemonium in the big towns, I heard that all the Auction houses had being close down until further notice, and that many third tiers and above are looking for the culprits"
"I heard it was a powerful follower of an Evil God that decided to act and try to weaken the God of Justice faction".
There was a ton of gossip going around with speculations as wild as a demon that devoured the souls of his victims. However, none dare to speculated that the group of characters eating merrily on a big table in that humble Inn were the savage Demon they were talking about.
"So Rahz even if you don't have a rune anymore, you still have to follow the rules of the temple to graduate, I don't think the levels would be an Issue but what about the new move, have you thought about it?"
Rahz frowned and said, "I have been thinking about that part and with the system of the realm I can replicated many of the Skills given by the gods and use their true potential but if we talk about creating something new I am afraid that is not that simple, but I am sure that it is going to work out somehow. In the meantime, I am going to absorb all the knowledge the Temple has to offer".
"What are you saying? You can copy the skills from other chambers?" Said Jazz while working on a nice Hawkstrider Roasted Leg".
"Well is not copying as much as learning the steps of Energy Manipulation and then sort of letting the realm show me what the skill was meant to be in the first place. It takes longer but once is done the skill might have and additional effect or more potency like this".
Rahz took the back of his wooden spoon and jam it against the table without much force. The back of the spoon hit the table and sort of bounce upwards from the recoiled.
"That was the spoon without the used of any skill now look at this.." said Rahz while using the old devastating blow on it that cover the spoon with visible energy and then hit the table once more leaving a dent on it. "This is the result of using the skill Devastating Blow that we learned as a Level 1 warrior and is supposed to increase the damage an object does by around 50%".
Giant Blade nodded at the statement as it was very common knowledge but what happened next left him with his mouth open. He saw Rahz use the skill again but this time saw all the energy disappeared inside the spoon and when Rahz used it to hit the table, the back of the spoon made a dent three times as big.
The Goggles started displaying the data from the skill and when he saw the data comeback as Devastating Blow damage increased by 150% he was perplex. Rahz used the skill at the legendary Grandmaster Level that was supposed to happen when a person had studied and understood the skill in his entirety, this took an incredible amount of years and devotion but how old was his student barely 19 years old.
