Chapter 253: State of Emergency

****(POV) 

"Another lifeless body, is it?" 

"T-that, yes madam!" 

*Sigh* that almost makes me sound old. 

Here we are on a crime scene. 

I and my 4 subordinates. 

This is an official investigation. 

One that proves thorny.

This whole situation is getting out of hand. 

Somehow, recently nothing has been going right in Eaglevein. 

The good thing is we managed to somehow keep it quiet. 

There have been many murders. 

Well, this is only our hypothesis. 

The issue is that every corpse never shows any sign of injury. 

No physical scar, no magical one either. 

As if they simply ran out of lifespan. 

Breathing their last.

This is the scariest thing. 

This means that this serial killer can evade the city's safety measures. 

*Shiver*

I believe it to be some kind of magic related to the soul. 

This would explain us failing to detect it.
