After a bit of total silence, Rex's grin only widened. "Of course, sir. Anything to keep things professional." He shot one last look at Leena, who was doing her best to regain her composure, and gave her a mock salute.
As the General stood there, her expression a blend of frustration and defeat, Carlos leaned over to Ys, whispering, "That's twice in one day she's been shut down. Almost feel bad for her."
Ys smirked, her gaze fixed on Rex. "Almost."
Rex then clapped his hands together, his voice cheerful as he addressed the troops around him. "Alright, show's over, everyone! Let's get back to saving the world or whatever it is we're paid to do."
The gathered soldiers chuckled, some even applauding as they began to disperse, leaving Leena standing alone, staring daggers at Rex's back. And as he walked away, Ys and Carlos moved to his side.
