Please help me, I have a scented pepper bonsai which I have had 2 months now and today when giving her a soak I spotted a mini slug creature. I removed it but when I looked again I realised there were about 10. I don’t know where they have come from or how to get rid of them. I don’t know what to do.

They come from eggs, after two slugs mated.
Renova them by hand.

Ah... phone keyboards. That's: Remove them by hand.

The standard gardening solution to slugs is a small dish of beer. A couple of tablespoons overnight in a saucer will produce dozens of dead slugs. I don't know how to adapt that to bonsai.
