บท 269: Prodigy

Nero and Vanessa concluded their conversation there. It felt odd that they had a long and borderline treasonous conversation right in the middle of the street of a secret base, with patrols keeping an eye on them and even reminding them to hurry up lest they stay past curfew.

Nero was beginning to get a glimpse into why a secret agency might want someone with abilities like his father. Just the ability to secretly transmit data was incredible. He wondered if Unity had ever tried to approach or recruit him.

Speaking of Unity, Nero was expecting a visit from them but wasn't sure when it would be. He briefly considered that Bael might act as the contact, but did not say anything to him at all. Flintlock had specifically mentioned that Nero was only useful, so long as no one knew he was a member.
