Chapter 6
After concluding the deal with Anders, Aiden’s destination was his hideout.
A 5-story apartment on the outskirts of Pittsburgh.
Aiden, briefly looking up at the shabby exterior, stepped into the quiet entrance.
It had been several hours since he left this hideout.
While Aiden had multiple purposes for his outings, one of them was... to buy time.
Ever since he realized that Arian was a presence different from what he expected, he naturally considered distancing himself from her.
Of course, Arian’s utility had not diminished. Even though she wasn’t a zombie or a human, Aiden was still quite interested in Arian’s immunity that could withstand the zombie virus.
However, despite that, Aiden eventually decided to give up on Arian.
It was due to the inexplicable ability that Arian possessed. Aiden didn’t feel confident about restraining someone who could use such magical abilities.
So, Aiden, aware that Arian’s restraints were loose, intentionally left her alone during his absence.
During the few hours he was away, he hoped Arian would find a way to break free from the chains and leave quietly.
