Bab 274: Tumors

Fifteen days later.

After continuously searching around the cities that could potentially house the Black Sorcerers, they still had no clue about Lefay's whereabouts. Grimm's patience was wearing thin.

From what Nina had described, there was something peculiar about these black apprentices. They seem to have appeared out of the blue in great numbers.

They shared nothing in common and there wasn't any pattern that could lead to a clue. They have never even interacted with each other before.
