Chapter 269: A New Responsibility
Chapter: A New Responsibility
---
The Chapter begins with Adam’s sharp gaze fixed on Zero, his mind still focused on ensuring every precaution is in place.
The room is quiet, the tension palpable as his companions await further instructions.
The silence is broken when Krish interjects, his tone tinged with sarcasm and a hint of insecurity.
"Master, aren’t you going to tell me to stay hidden too?"
Adam turns his attention toward Krish, his calm expression unshaken. He replies evenly, "I don’t need to tell you that. I’m instructing my people because they wouldn’t act on this unless I explicitly told them."
This response sends a ripple through the group. Sona, Tayo, Ninja, Zero, and Phantom nod in unison, their agreement silent but resolute.
Their loyalty and discipline are evident in their synchronized acknowledgment of Adam’s statement.
Krish, observing their unwavering unity, places a hand on his head in exasperation. He mutters softly under his breath, "If you tell me, I’d honestly prefer it."
His tone carries a mix of frustration and self-deprecating humor, but it goes unnoticed—or perhaps deliberately ignored—by Adam, whose focus remains steadfast.
