Adam's mouth was wide open, he couldn't believe what he heard. Silvana was as baffled as he was.

"What the hell are you talking about? What do you mean there are no free Operators here? How can there even be fewer Operators than Phantoms? That's bullshit!" he rose, slamming the table.

Strangely enough, Orel didn't get angry, he wasn't the least bit embarrassed by Adam's reaction. It only amused him.

"Hahaha, Adam, I'm sure you as a K3-Phantom are well aware of where all Operators begin their journey, right?"
