Outside the Tower, the atmosphere was razor-sharp with tension.
Dozens of cameras flashed, reporters shouted over one another, and the elite team preparing to enter the mysterious structure stood in formation.
But the oppressive mood that blanketed the scene wasn't due to the looming journey into the unknown—it was because of Fredric Black's temper, simmering just beneath the surface.
Kevin Jenner, the #1 ranked hunter in the world, leaned in toward Rick, one of Legion's top handlers.
"What's with the boss? He's been looking like he wants to tear the Tower down with his bare hands."
Rick exhaled slowly, gaze flickering toward Fredric.
"He's mad because Fenrir entered the Tower without saying a word. Just disappeared."
Kevin frowned.
"He's a teenager. How the hell did he get past the security detail?"
Before Rick could reply, Louise chimed in, arms crossed and eyes sharp.
"If the security team is that sloppy, I'd be more than happy to retrain them. Personally."
