The Hour Long Wait

Without opening the communication channel, I could only guess what they were thinking upon the situation suddenly evolving to this.

Are they cursing me or are they cursing me? Surely what has just happened made them curse me to death. Who told them not to check if that was a clone or not?

Well, one thing was for sure though, these three weren't the source for that danger which my Adaptability was still sensing.

It's here but it's not them. They're only a subordinate, probably only Rank S or SS at best. Their abilities aren't that great even or the Metagen wasn't specially made for them.

Err… Who knows? I haven't fought them head-on and I quickly dealt with that one once the chance showed itself to me.

But three Core Pilot level subordinates, there's a possibility that they were raised here or they came from either of the factions involved. Whatever their background is, an enemy is an enemy.
