章節 91: Masquerade's Veil
As Lyra entered the resistance club meeting, the atmosphere was thick with tension. Cherry, a senior member of the club, approached her with a grave expression. "Lyra, we've uncovered some crucial information about the mafia responsible for your parents' murder."
Lyra's heart raced at the mention of her parents, their loss still a painful wound that had never fully healed. She leaned in closer, her eyes locked on Cherry's face.
"The tattoo we saw on Luciano, the man that attacked you in the city, belongs to the Nightfall Mafia," Cherry continued, her voice low and urgent. "They're one of the oldest and most dangerous criminal organizations in Nocturnia, known for their involvement in illegal elixirs, potions, and tonics."
At the mention of the Nightfall Mafia, Lyra felt a surge of anger coursing through her veins. These were the people responsible for tearing her family apart, for taking away the two people she loved most in the world. She clenched her fists, her knuckles turning white with the force of her grip.
Cherry placed a comforting hand on Lyra's shoulder, her eyes filled with understanding. "We know how much this means to you, Lyra. That's why we want your help in gathering more information on the Nightfall Mafia and their plans. We've learned that they're planning to release an illegal party tonic, designed specifically for Sanguines. If it hits the streets, it could be deadly for humans."
Lyra took a deep breath, trying to calm the storm of emotions raging inside her. She knew that this was her chance to finally get justice for her parents, to make sure that no one else suffered the same fate.
"I'm in," she said, her voice steady and determined. "Whatever it takes, I'll help you stop the Nightfall Mafia and their tonic."
Cherry nodded, a small smile playing at the corners of her mouth. "We knew we could count on you, Lyra. The first step is to gather more information on Luciano and his associates within the mafia. We need you to create an elixir that can disguise our scent and appearance, allowing us to infiltrate Sanguine-only establishments where the Nightfall Mafia operates."
Lyra's mind was already racing with ideas, her alchemical knowledge and skills bubbling to the surface. She knew that creating such an elixir would be a challenge, but she was ready to face it head-on.
As the meeting came to a close, Lyra headed straight for her laboratory, her heart heavy with the weight of her past but also filled with a newfound sense of purpose. She would not rest until she had uncovered the truth behind her parents' murder and brought the Nightfall Mafia to justice.
With each ingredient she added to her elixir, with each experiment she conducted, Lyra felt her resolve growing stronger. She knew that the road ahead would be dangerous, but she was ready to face whatever challenges lay in her path.
Finally, as the first rays of dawn began to peek through the windows of the lab, Lyra held up a small vial of shimmering liquid. She uttered "Masquerade's Veil" she knew that this elixir could be the key to infiltrating the Nightfall Mafia and stopping their nefarious plans.
