Chapter 294 Chapter 294 – Assessing
?"That's bad," Nick said absentmindedly.
Jenny narrowed her eyes in rage and turned back to look at Nick.
"Do you know what I mean?" she asked.
"Yes," Nick said as he looked back with a neutral expression. "He jumped into the red Specter and died, right?"
Jenny's eyes became filled with fury, but instead of saying anything, she just kept quiet and continued going towards Dark Dream's new location.
Jenny had known Nick for over four years now, and she had always believed him to be reliable, dependable, nice, and empathetic.
Yet, people only showed their true selves when they were in desperation.
A loving mother might hold her child in front of her when a threat appeared.
A strong man might run away and leave his family behind.
A strict mother might protect her child with her own body.
A weak man might fight a seemingly immortal foe to buy time for his friends and family.
And Nick?
He was always nice, strong, and dependable, but as soon as things became terrible, he just wallowed in self-pity. The initial instance of this chapter being available happened at N0v3l.Bin.
And when one of his closest friends died, he just gave a nonchalant response like he had just been told about the weather tomorrow.
Jenny had believed that Nick cared about them.
But obviously, he didn't.
She thought that Nick was different from all the other Manufacturers.
In her career, she had heard a lot about other Manufacturers, and she always despised how cold and apathetic they were.
She had always been happy that Dark Dream was different.
But now, she only felt like a clown.
Different?
Of course not.
Dark Dream was just like all the other Manufacturers.
They were only interested in profits.
Maybe she should reconsider the offers from other Manufacturers she had declined in the past.
Nick silently followed Jenny for a bit.
Eventually, the two of them arrived near the Inner City.
Dark Dream's building was sitting on top of three other buildings, and it was currently leaning against the megastructure.
