Chapter 61: Virtual Entrapment

The livestream of Zed's confrontation played on repeat, each viewing stoking the fire of Tranter's anger. The air hummed with the soft whir of advanced cooling systems, keeping the room at an optimal temperature despite the heat radiating from the massive screen.

The high-definition display captured every nuance of his expression, from the tightness around his eyes to the slight tremor in his lips. "So what if you have those little robots, Zed? I can get them too. You think that changes anything?"
