Chapter 253 – His City

"Huh?" Nick uttered as he looked at Julian. "No, I didn't know about that."

Julian kept looking at Nick. 

"I'm in contact with many different people within the city, and I also help out here and there," Julian said. 

"But most of the time, I am walking around with the guards."

"About seven months ago, a Veteran vanished. Something like that isn't that unusual. A Veteran in the city vanishes about once every couple of years. Most of the time, they die to a Specter that surprised them."

"Because of that, nobody really cared."

"But then, a month later, another Veteran vanished."

"Sure, that was more than normal, but that could just be a coincidence."

"And then, another one vanished a month later."

Nick looked at Julian with worry. "That doesn't sound like a coincidence."

Julian chuckled. "I can assure you, it's not."
