"Hey, keep up! I'm not slowing down for you," Growled Arisu irritably.

Today's the 5th of July, 2025, about two months since the Meta-Orbs had been scattered. Ever since that last Outlier, who was found living in a nature reserve, no others have appeared yet, and the captured Outliers of Eden were improving steadily, though they still weren't quite battle-ready.
In the last month or so, Eden has been focusing on brainwashing the leaders of small nations and taking over by controlling them. Naturally, those with Dark Skills have been at the forefront of this operation, since they're the only ones with brainwashing powers.
A lot of them aren't exactly highly skilled, but they're more than skilled enough to brainwash regular humans. After all, unlike Meta-Humans, normal people have absolutely no resistance to even the most minor of Meta-Human powers, so yeah.
