Chapter 145: The Dark Alliance (Vote for monthly tickets!)

Baron Adrian did not take a carriage and instead arrived in Nasir Town alone. Just a few steps into the town, he was detected by the "Black Mirror" barrier set up by Viscount Bast.

Suddenly, he heard a familiar male voice surrounding him.

"Your Excellency Baron Adrian, you've finally arrived. I've been wondering whether you would come here or rush off to seek Viscount Garcia overnight."

The voice was calm and powerful—it was Byrne Fischer's voice!

"His Excellency Byrne?"

Adrian was shocked, having no clue where the voice was coming from; he couldn't see Byrne's figure anywhere around him.

Where was he?

In fact, in a hidden spot unbeknownst to him, Byrne had previously left a Sound Marker, and that sentence was a recording of Byrne's voice all along.

There were only so many normal entrances to Nasir Town, and since Adrian bore no ill intent, Byrne could easily predict where Adrian would enter the town without taking a detour from Black Mountain Town.
