Black Market [2]

Alden walked through the busy streets of Black Market.

The black market, unlike its name, looked really normal, just like any other bustling market.

Many vendors were selling their goods while customers were busy bargaining for them.

The lights from the lamps shone brightly, illuminating the roads.

The Black Market looked peaceful except for some occasional alleys Alden passed by.

He could see some shady people doing some really shady deals in those alleys.

But overall it was not like the general image one might have formed from its name.

To be honest, Alden didn't know much about the black market. It was just mentioned briefly in the novel.

Lucien had never visited it, and its only significance was in revealing the schemes of a minor antagonist.

Cipher.

It wasn't a real name, just a code. The only name she had.
