A Dark Alley!

Zion stood dumbfounded as he stood on his guard. After watching the scene in front of his eyes, he was sure that the silver masked man had perhaps escaped and ended up standing among those people. And after that, he deliberately put all the blame on a human before the latter could even call out others. Since humans had always been scolded for no reason, no one would believe in Zion's words anymore. Even if he told them that he had seen the masked man from his own eyes, the murderer might use his exceptional social skills to turn the tables around and make trouble for Zion.

His eyes squinted at that as he glanced at the crowd filled with elves. Almost all the elves were using a fire torch here, and he frowned. Weren't elves supposed to have magical skills to do supernatural stuff? Then why wouldn't they use spells to create a ball of light or something?
