It’s mysterious because there is a hidden person who solves the danger lurking around in this city. And the monsters who tried to dominate this small land, will be dead-no, turned into ash like they have never appeared before, well, if it was not for the little hole that the monster came out to appear in front of that ‘person’ that it left, maybe they would really think, there was not a monster appearing in this small city to create chaos just to get the soil they wanted by force. And it is also mysterious because, they didnt know who is behind of this thing.

It’s the same as before when they got a mission in this city. Bailou city is truly a mysterious city.

WELCOME TO H CITY was written on another one. Alex scoffed. Did they forget the meaning of *welcome*? H City was one of its kind, a place without rules guiding them from the government.

A lot of inappropriate things happened there with no one to arrest or be held responsible for anytime it happened because it was mostly because those who worked with the Mafias had secret identities and multiple ones at such to use for missions thereby proving hard to find.

MARIA I had arrived in Palermo with my heart beating wildly in my chest, searching for answers I could no longer avoid. On serene city days, the streets looked like labyrinths full of mysteries and potential dangers. But they were not the dangers of crowded streets, nor were their secrets to be sought behind the crumbling walls of buildings. They buried the real enigmas in the souls of the people who lived in this city full of history and passion. And my story, my secrets were here too, but nobody knew that. For now.

Sucks to be in this city, I thought it would be cheap and cheap it was until the economy crashed thanks to Corvin and his crew, screw them. Corvin? That’s right, Corvin. What’s it about Corvin?
