Chapter 516: Chapter 516 – Truth of the World

Nick asked for a couple of names from Aria and cross-referenced them with the black book.

Sure enough, none of the people were in there.

They were honest and followed the law.

"You don't seem worried," Aria commented. "What's your plan?"

"Do you not know?" Nick asked.

Aria furrowed her brows. "I wouldn't ask if I did."

Nick calmly stood up from his chair and walked to the door.

"The fact that you can't see it shows that you don't see reality," he said.

"Excuse me?" Aria asked with annoyance.

"But I don't fault you," Nick said. "You've been in this city for too long, and the only things you had to fight were companies in the market and Specters."

Aria became very annoyed with Nick's arrogant tone.

Nick was barely 34!

Yet, he was talking to her, an Early Hero who was almost 200 years old, like she was a child.
