Nick looked with surprise at Simon.Please visit https://novel-next.com website to read fastest update

 

He had a job for him?

 

Why?

 

Nick was only an Initial John.

 

What could he possibly do that the governor couldn't?

 

"Are you interested?" Simon asked.

 

Nick looked uncertain. "Why? What can I do that the governor can't?"

 

"It's not about you being able to do something that he can't," Simon said.

 

"It's whether or not he will actually do it."

 

Nick raised his eyebrows.

 

"I don't trust anyone in this city," Simon said.

 

"Humans are selfish creatures, and the stronger they become, the more their selfishness grows and manifests."

 

"Aegis doesn't have the resources to send anyone into the city, which means that we can only ask the leaders of the city for help."

 

"But in the end, the leaders of a city are only interested in their own prosperity most of the time," Simon said with a sigh.

 

"If I ask them to investigate something that might end up reducing the power of the city, I will most likely get no results whatsoever."

 

Nick looked at Simon with uncertainty.

 

'So, if I accept this task, I might end up weakening Crimson Fungus City?'

 

Nick took a deep breath.

 

'Humanity is more important,' Nick repeated to himself.

 

"What do you want me to do?" Nick asked.

 

Simon showed a small smile.

 

"This is not something that you have to prioritize immediately. I know that what I am asking for you most likely won't be accomplished within this decade or even the one after that."

 

Nick took another deep breath and continued listening.

 

"It's concerning the relay," Simon said.

 

"What you have seen is a greater relay, which is different from a normal one."

Simon looked at Nick.

 

"I need you to find out which Manufacturer holds Envy's servant."

 

"I can't trust anyone that has the power to suppress an Elder since they are suspects as well."

 

"If the leading Manufacturer of the city has it, neither the governor nor the most powerful people of the city will produce any results since they won't even investigate."

 

"And even if the servant isn't with the leading Manufacturer, the Manufacturer that has it will just bribe them. Maybe they will also share the Specter."

 

"I can't trust them. Even if they don't have the Specter, they are still selfish and bribable."

 

"That's why I need you," Simon said.

 

Nick took a deep breath.

 

"To summarize," Nick said. "One of the Manufacturers must have one of Envy's servants, and you want me to find out which one, right?"

 

Simon nodded.

 

"Is there anything you can tell me that might help me in finding out which Manufacturer might have it?" Nick asked.

 

"Only one thing," Simon said. "If they have it, they are definitely keeping it secret. Most likely, not even the city knows of the Specter."

 

"Its existence must be kept even more confidential than any other Specter the Manufacturer owns."

 

Nick furrowed his brows.

 

This definitely wasn't easy.

 

There were only five potential forces that could have captured the Specter.

 

Kugelblitz.

 

Anatomy.

 

Ghosty's Lab.

 

Gemini.

 

And the city itself.

 

While Solace might have the strength to capture an Elder, it most definitely didn't have the power to capture a very strong Elder, and based on what Simon said, an Elder that could create a greater relay must be very powerful.

 

One of these five must have the Specter.

 

Nick took a deep breath.

 

"I don't know how long it will take, but I will do my best," he said.

 

Simon nodded. "I know that it will take a long time and that I am asking much of you, but know that I will not overlook your readiness to help humanity."

 

"There's not much I can do for you, but that doesn't mean that there is nothing."
