Chapitre 79: Shattered Facade

The group stood in a tense silence, the weight of years of betrayal and unresolved hatred hanging in the air.

Eratz and Kenny finally faced each other, their history pressing in like a thick fog.

But Kenny didn't look remorseful or intimidated. In fact, a sly, confident grin curled on his lips as he stepped forward, daring to break the silence first.

"Well, well, look at you now, Eratz. All this power and still carrying a grudge? You always did have a way of getting things handed to you, talent, opportunities... but we both know you're just a fake. A cheater."

Kenny's voice dripped with venom, the accusation hanging in the air like a poisoned blade.

Mercury's eyes narrowed as she studied Kenny, recognizing him immediately.

"Wait," she muttered, her voice icy. "This is the piece of shit that used to stalk me like a beaten dog."

Kenny flinched at her words, but he quickly turned back to Eratz, trying to regain his composure.
