章 49: Chapter 49: Old Friend

"You should really keep your nerves in check, Captain Grace."

Hearing this voice, Grace couldn't help but turn her head in a rush. "Zia Trarzaoreth…!"

A headless being walked into the room, donning a set of beautiful black armor while holding what seemed to be a head in its arms. Its neck was set ablaze by a green fire, and its head had the face of a beautiful maiden. The head's eyes opened, and a beautiful pair of emerald eyes shimmered, but in contrast, a dark sclera was seen.

As if a breeze hit it, its medium-length white hair with strands of green swayed lightly.

"It's been quite a while since I've last seen you, Grace," The headless being, Zia Trarzaoreth, stated as she sat down on the sofa, crossed her legs, and laid her head atop her lap.

"It truly has been. So, why did the Captain of the Unit Beta visit me today?" Grace said with a smile since Zia was one of her closest friends.
