The next day, Synthia woke up and went upstairs and heard loud noise coming from the meeting hall. She immediately headed there and she could see a large crowd of humans in the meeting hall, including the children, they numbered a bit over a hundred. Looking at the front, she could see Kyle on the stage, but before she could do anything, she spotted her four most loyal saints as well and calmed down, but she was still a bit confused on what was going on. She immediately transformed, grabbing the crowds attention, and flew towards the front.
"What's going on?" She asked Claire and she looked at her lady with a happy look on her face
"My lady, they have been here since morning? They are saying that one of the saints is missing, a man named Darren." Claire explained
'Darren, who's Darren, I'm pretty sure he isn't one of my saints? But either way this is bad, we only have around twenty saints and I suspect that less than half of them are actually loyal to us, if he was one of the loyal ones then this is quite a blow.' Synthia thought
"Do you know who this Darren is?" She asked Claire but before she could answer, someone else did.
"He is one of my saints." Mr. Ziek said as he and Castiel flew in
"Where is Sera?" Synthia asked
"She is in the core room cultivating, she said that we can handle this on our own." Castiel explained
"Now what is this about Darren?" Mr. Ziek asked and someone from the crowd replied
"He has been missing since yesterday and the last time we saw him he was riding a motorbike out of the [Holy Territory]." The person said and a look of realization appeared on Synthia's face
"What do you know something?" Mr. Ziek asked
"Yes, I think he's the guy I sent out yesterday to go to City A. I sent him to deliver that gift to Colin." She said and she could hear someone in the crowd gasp loudly, causing her to fight the urge to roll her eyes.
"Why would you do that?" Castiel asked with a raised eyebrow
"He kept pestering me about wanting to go, I thought he was just trying to show his appreciation or trying to conquer his fear of demons or something. I didn't think he would-" Synthia said and another look of realization appeared on her face, and she finally realized why that guy was so persistent, this was a set up.
'But why would he want to fo something like this? He is definitely going to die if he doesn't come back to the [Holy Territory]? Maybe he snuck back in and is currently hiding somewhere? But again, that doesn't make any sense, why the hell would he do that? Is he like one of those extremist Angels who don't like to rely on their affinity and instead rely on their fists to fight? I need to talk to Mr. Ziek, something weird is going on here?' Synthia thought and just as she was about to say something, someone shouted from the crowd.
"So it was that Demon who killed him!!!" And Synthia immediately scanned the crowd to see who said it, but she couldn't find them.
"You might be right, that demon did threaten to kill us around a week ago and he almost killed us three days ago with those explosions." Someone else said and this time she saw the person, but she couldn't do anything right now, or that would cause even more problems. The crowd soon descended into chaos as everyone started agreeing with the person and Claire, Tim, Kirt and Roxy along with a three other saints tried to calm the crowd as they demanded the Angels do something. Some even shouted that they should kill Colin and soon others joined in until everyone was chanting for them to kill Colin. By this point, Synthia's anger had reached it's limit.
"SHUT UP!!!" She shouted and a wave of holy energy was released from her body, pushing back the crowd a few steps and shutting them up instantly.
"All of you vacate the meeting hall now, I and my companions will discuss this and conduct an investigation, when we reach a decision, we will inform you." Synthia said firmly
"You can't-" Someone said but instantly shut up when Synthia glared at him with fiercely glowing golden eyes.
"I can't what." Synthia said and cold sweat rolled down his face as Synthia looked at him with a furious look on her face.
"If you have nothing to say, leave." She said coldly and the man immediately dashed out of the room and everyone else soon followed
"Not you seven, come with us." Synthia said to the Claire and the others who tried to calm the crowd.
