Chapter 87 - Persuade

Point-of-View: Neo Cronje

———————————————————————————

"Hi, there. It's nice to meet you, I'm Neo. What's your name?" I inquired with a friendly smile, but got no response.

It's the 15th of January, and I was in the newly captured Outlier's room. The higher ups had been nagging me to get this kid started with his training...they were under the impression that I could pull it off since I'd apparently 'sweet-talked' the other Outliers into trusting Harmony.

But that's not true at all, all of the Outliers were highly suspicious of me for quite a while. They only went along with it because they had nothing to lose in their lives...this kid is different though, he seems to have had a happy life before this, which is apparent by how depressed he is right now.

The higher ups also want me to help train this kid, since I'm the best Space Skill user in Harmony...though, admittedly, I haven't mastered many advanced techniques that aren't related to my portals.
