Chapter 438 Chapter 438 – Governor's Crossroads

The city had been in relative peace up to now since Anatomy couldn't really fight Kugelblitz.

After all, they only had a single Initial Hero, while Kugelblitz had three. Updated from n0velb(i)n.c(o)/m

But what about now?

Anatomy was now an actual threat to Kugelblitz.

Would the city remain peaceful?

These were genuine concerns that went through the governor's mind.

With this Demon, the entire city might get thrown into disarray.

Would there be an actual war between Kugelblitz and Anatomy?

And what about the governor?

How would Anatomy act towards him?

At this moment, the governor had to make important choices.

He hadn't expected the Demon to be this powerful, and he also hadn't expected Anatomy to have three Heroes.

That was why he had helped earlier.

But now, he wasn't sure if he had made the correct decision.

Should he remain an honorary member of Kugelblitz?

Should he tell Kugelblitz about the Demon and kill Anatomy right now before they could go back to the city?

Should he stay neutral and let the two Manufacturers duke it out?

Should he join Anatomy?

The fate of the entire city was being decided right at this moment, and everyone who was present knew that.

There was a very good reason why Ariel was not here.

As a Sniper, it was best for her to remain far away from the battlefield.

The governor had saved Ariel's life earlier, but now, she was preparing to kill him if he tried anything.

However, while there were many decisions the governor could make right now, he wouldn't battle them at this moment.

Yes, he was a Mid Hero, but he knew that he most likely wouldn't win against them.

And if he actually lost, he probably wouldn't even die.

Most likely, they would give him to the pillar, creating a powerful puppet.

"When I arrived, you've already suppressed the Specter," the governor said evenly.

"Of course," Mundus answered neutrally.

Then, the governor looked at Nick, who just gestured that he didn't see anything.

The governor furrowed his brows.

The governor's appearance and the power of the Specter were already unforeseen circumstances.

Killing Nick would cause the situation to become even more chaotic.

Now, the question was, did Anatomy want a chaotic situation or not?

Nick didn't know.

After running for some time, Nick reached the shore and jumped over the cliffs.

When he landed behind the cliffs, his ability still hadn't reactivated.

Nick just kept running.

Every step felt like it took forever.

Eventually, Nick's ability reactivated again, and he took a deep breath.

When the crimson pillar of mist came into view, Nick finally felt relieved.

If Anatomy decided to kill him, they would have done it already.

This meant that Nick was finally safe.

Nick ran past the Desert and veered towards the left after passing the mountain.

Half a minute later, he saw the southern entrance of the city.

Only when Nick walked past the four Veterans defending the south did he truly feel safe.

He went over the bridge and reached the outer city.

He was back.

This entire mission had taken less than an hour, but it had felt like forever.

After entering the city, Nick slowed down.

'It was risky, but it was worth it,' he thought as he slowly walked towards the Inner City.

Nervousness left Nick's being and was replaced by excitement.

'We really earned a lot today!' Nick thought.

When Nick thought about the Specters they had secured today, his mind was going wild with possibilities.

The payout was absolutely tremendous.

So, what would Dark Dream receive?

One Peak Adult.

One Mid Adult.

One Early Adult.

And seven Adolescents!

Ten Specters!
