"Really?" Elijah couldn't help but swallow hard, seemingly drawn in by Gavin's description of the future.
"Of course it's true, Quentin. Let me tell you, this place is freaking amazing. I was in a survivor community before, just over a dozen of us, and we got wiped out by a mutated zombie. I was the only one lucky enough to survive. Then, you know what happened? Some people from YLK Group passed by and effortlessly took down the mutated zombie!"
Gavin recounted, a mix of fear, gratitude, and admiration in his voice.
"So I decided to follow them back here, determined to become an Awakened."
"These people here are really something. I hope I can become Awakened too!" Elijah chimed in.
The two continued chatting for a while until Gavin checked his watch and announced, "It's about time for dinner!"
Just then, Wendy returned and nodded at Elijah. "Everyone, gather in the lobby. Once we're all here, we'll go to the cafeteria for dinner."
