Chapter 155:
From the unfortunate vampire Mary, Murphy quickly learned about the various events that occurred in Kadman City an hour before the Astral Realm rift erupted.
But she herself didn’t actually know much either.
According to her, that day she was hiding with her lover Mork in a dark little street-side room doing some spicy things that couldn’t be described without getting censored. It was only because of vampires’ keen perception of spirit energy that they noticed the Nocturne barrier being suddenly shut down.
Afterwards, Mork took her to investigate all around the city’s shadows.
Well, from this detail, we could see that the fool vampire who previously reminded Murphy to “eat well before hitting the road” was actually a loyal fellow to his family.
This could be seen from his willingness to risk being burned by sunlight to investigate the crisis for his family, which was not something any random vampire would bother involving themselves in.
However, these two unlucky lovebirds obviously had terrible luck.
According to Mary, they had only just gone out and hadn’t figured out what was going on when they were immediately ambushed and beaten down by those treacherous scoundrels who disregarded martial honor.
Those traitors who had already defected to the Wolfsbane Clan not only shut down the city’s barrier core but also made off with much of the family’s wealth, and even members like the corridor guards and the patriarch’s personal guards who were theoretically absolutely loyal were involved.
