"That's right! The Controller has access to motor impulses and instinctive reflexes. So your body can be controlled, but Arthemisya still sees and feels."I felt a chill run down my spine and up to the back of my neck. A monitor beside me lit up. The image displayed a constantly shifting map of my brain like an aurora. A purplish line of light appeared in the center of the screen; I remembered my high school science teacher explaining the connection between the prefrontal cortex and the limbic system. Sure enough, that's where it was."Look at that!" said Frans, pointing at the monitor, " This is an intelink, definitely a bridge between your brain and the Controller. LCD builds a chemical pathway that resembles new nerve fibers. The connections will be linked to thought patterns and responses.""Can they feel what I feel?" Finally, I spoke up.Frans sighed.“Not completely. But they can hear the echoes of your emotions. It works a bit like hearing music through a wall. They know when y

"Okay, let's finish it, Madame." Tiger pulled a small knife from inside his jacket and, in one swift motion, cut the thin wire from the bracelet. My breath caught; I watched Amadeus' signal cut off and saw what was at stake for the woman.Elizabeth collapsed without a weak groan, except for the pounding of her heart that shattered the silence. Finally, police sirens began to wail. Surely someone had discovered the condition of Elizabeth's bodyguards. I stood on my tiptoes, observing where the flashing red lights were heading.Lucy's calculations were correct. Luckily, they headed for the back garden of the left wing. She said that although the right wing, where we were located, was more secluded, management avoided this area.That meant the festival was still going on, and the bodyguards had been evacuated to a remote location. Whether by coincidence or design, the festival's main stage was located on the beach. In contrast, until now, we had been operating from a hotel where privat

After the anchor was lowered, the tidal waves seemed to subside. But undeniably, the nausea was getting stronger, gripping my stomach. The early morning wind was getting even colder. Tiger nimbly draped my furry jacket over me as we disembarked the ship.It was about two hundred meters from the pier to the point where the three of us were walking in the light's reflection. Lucy was steadily lifting a large backpack containing several explosives, smuggled under her clothes and food. Tiger held me tightly with one arm, while his other hand slipped into the inside pocket of his jacket.Our steps reached a clearing. As we suspected, two people were waiting. However, their movements didn't seem defensive.The mist cleared, and my eyes widened. "Zerikyu?"I quickly glanced at Tiger and Lucy, but they had the same expression as I did."Hey! You didn't expect that, did you?" Zerikyu greeted cheerfully."Welcome to Ushant!" chimed a middle-aged man, about forty, with a neat mustache that appear

"Dead! Go to hell!! You bastard!!!" Tiger growled. The pressure of the dagger pierced Zerikyu's chest an inch deeper.Seeing Zerikyu trembling violently, dripping with sweat and blood, and his gaze brimming with red veins, I was terrified. I feared that losing him would affect my existence. After all, it was because of his abilities that I was able to live a second life. Without him, I didn't know how to face Amandeus. But how could Zerikyu not give up on returning Arthemisya? Now that I knew his intentions, I just had to find a compromise."Wait, Tiger! Please wait!""Now, what?! You said, Everyone can die!""It's not like that! He's the key!"It was my turn to receive this deadly glare. "Don't expect me to let him live, whoever he is," Tiger threatened."He knows where Amandeus is!" I gasped. I didn't know whether Tiger interpreted my nervous breathing as a sign of lying."Then, a spy should die quickly!"That one word sucked all of Zerikyu's oxygen out of him, and after a loud scre
