Homunculus Research

Sylvia dare not meet Zero's eyes. Her arrogant attitude from earlier was completely crushed with Zero's display of capabilities. In front of the chosen one, she was deeply humbled.

"Before I talk about your child's soul, I have questions about your research. Did you know that trying to create something that falls outside of the natural life cycle managed by Gods is considered a crime? This crime could get your soul returned to the void."

Sylvia nodded slowly. "If it means that I can see my child return to me even for a brief moment, then all will be worth it."
