Chapter 104: Shadow element
Alex thought about the dark beast that resembled the fatty and then recalled when the fatty had told his father to hand Emily over, a conclusion formed in his mind.
It couldn’t be that the Dark Union wanted his sister, right?
Alex could not think of any other possible reason why they would come to his home, the question in his mind now was why they wanted to kidnap Emily.
No matter what reasons they might have, Alex wasn’t going to let them take his sister; he silently decided to speed up his plan and craft the spells as soon as possible. Resolving the case of the missing people would ensure Emily’s safety as well since he has confirmed that the Dark Union was behind it.
Alex soon left the Union building, he had left the corpses of the dark beasts behind. Before he left, Silvia and the others had assured him that they would station some officers around the outskirts and keep watch to avoid another kidnapping in the outskirts.
While Alex was pleased with this, he wasn’t satisfied and didn’t plan to leave the safety of his sister in their hands. After all, these dark beasts were as strong as common rank magic beasts, while the officers were just humans with magic weapons.
Alex had other plans in mind as he left the Union building.
Getting outside, Alex moved through the well-lit street of the commercial district. He didn’t immediately use void walk skill to return to the outskirts because he felt someone following him.
After walking for a while, Alex noticed that the presence that was following him would oddly disappear briefly when he entered a clear space and return after he left the area; it was as if whoever was following him was avoiding something.
A grin formed on Alex’s face behind his mask. He suspected that whoever was following him must be the person who was controlling the dark beasts.
A member of the Dark Union!
