The atmosphere grew tense as the seven elders of the UAT stood before the five representatives of Tertius: Chronos, Azure, Kehinde, Dashavatara, and Megaera.
Grandmama Tai Sui, the oldest and wisest among them, stepped forward and spoke in a commanding voice, her words resounding through the arena.
"Genos, the day has finally come,"
She declared, her gaze fixed upon him.
Surprisingly, Genos kept his head bowed, showing a rare display of humility.
He dared not speak without seeking permission, so he discreetly glanced at the female android standing at the center of the Machinian representatives, Aurora.
It was as if he sought her approval before uttering a word.
Aurora, exuding an air of confidence and superiority, lightly nodded her head, her gaze focused elsewhere, casually fiddling with her long metallic nails, too proud to acknowledge anyone in attendance.
