"Eren, why don't you let them win already?" Rhys stepped in, seeing that the bowing would never end unless one side finally gave up.
Meanwhile, a small red signal with a low chime started to beep on the screen of his exoskeleton.
Rhys's attention snapped to the alert. His brows knit, and his voice turned firm. "Eren, we have a meeting. Let's go."
Eren also heard the beeping and saw the red indicator flashing on his arm, knowing too well what it meant.
He immediately rose to his feet and gave his final words to the Velari still kneeling on the ground. "Sorry, King Vale, I have urgent business now. We can continue when I return." Then, with a single leap, he went through the open door of the hoverjet, which was hovering low above their heads.
Rhys turned to the researchers and to the two soldiers in exoskeletons at the back, giant rifles in hand, standing ready for orders on full guard. "We will be back in at most 30 minutes. Can you manage in our absence?"
