บท 1012: Curtains Descend

Silence took over the room after Ciara's demise.

No one uttered a single word. There were just various expressions displayed in varying degrees.

As they all stared at her bleeding corpse, multiple emotions went through them, and several thoughts flowed through their minds.

None of them uttered them, though.

Instead, the room took a tone of deference to her death. The silence was palpable, and the dead calm was scary just as it was beautiful

However, the lull in the atmosphere was short-lived

"Hehe... hehehehe... hahahahaha... HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA!!!"

The one who laughed, breaking the wall of silence, was none other than Neron himself.

"Hahahahaha! What an idiot! To think she confessed to Phoenix XY-001!" He broke into more peals of laughter.

His latest and most sophisticated project, Pheonix XY was merely an attempt at the creation of a perfect, undying soldier.
