The Matchmaking System!

Selena, Rico, and Kira entered the room. Their expressions were curious and eager to know what transpired between Shinon and General Ironheart. As per their plan, Selena casually opened up the conversation.

"So, Shinon, what did you and the general talk about?"

"Oh, nothing much," he replied, his tone calm. "Just some general discussions about potential collaborations and other plans. You know, the usual. Nothing you people need to be concerned about."

Selena's eyes narrowed slightly, sensing that there was more to the conversation than Shinon was letting on. "Well, I guess we'll find out soon enough."

Selena thought Shinon still didn't trust her, but she was wrong. Shinon somewhat trusted her because the system had named her an ally. However, he found it hard to believe Selena had no idea that the Phoenixes were selling his weapons to the military.
