Bolt waited for long time but no one showed up, sky started darkening, he moved from his hideout, he reached where dead body was there, he searched there, he found a core and a device, he stored them and the rocks, he returned to the cave.
Next day he left the cave, searching for new hideout. Even though he faced ugly side of humanity, he didn't change his approach of surviving, because that's how humanity constructed. His emotion totally subsided when facing the lion again, not because of he punished the criminal.
He didn't find any place to rest, he used his usual tactics to rest.

"Did any scrap left there?"
"No, each and every data is vanished. Even a system not related to it vanished, though that system may had contact with it."
"How many died and arrested?"
"Death count is not yet confirmed, all planet level executives and above them are arrested."
" This is why system contracts are double edged sword. The origin always knows everything but keeps quiet. When time comes, it is like merciless executioner. Initiate the new slave system and the alternative for purged systems in two days."
"That will take atleast two weeks, the source data vanished as if it didn't exist before. There is no memory about it, no hard data."
" Okay, take your time on that. Find the one who reported it."
"Why do you think it was reported? Not some other way like contract breach."
"I don't know about other methods, but origin won't take action due to contract breach. Just investigate this issue slowly. Don't rush, it is delicate issue."
" Okay, any other instructions?"
"Nothing, for now."

" Here 1000 F-Rank cores for each you. I want you to survive in this world, so choose easier difficulty in the trial, but don't refuse these.", Amy handed over cores to his sisters and brother-in-law.
"Okay", three of them said in unison, they left for trial and came back.
"Consuming 1000 cores at a time can damage your body, but if you enter trial without delay, there will be no issues. So, next time don't be impatient."

"Most of the slave traders are died suddenly."
"What happened?"
"Nearly half of them in wilderness, so I don't know about them, and a very few of them only survived inside the city. No clarification from outside."
"What about soul sensors, are they moving or not? And I also didn't receive any answers."
"Most of the soul sensors are not moving. Did any of you get response?"
"No!"
Eight people sitting in round table, looked each other in confusion. They seeked answer but that was not avail.
They continued their meeting, moved to next agenda.
