The First Phase of the Carmine Revolution

The next day, Ves handled his daily chores before paying a visit to the design lab that he had not visited in many weeks.

This was the downside to going on a business trip. He became so caught up in other affairs that he got cut off from the intimacy of the mech designers who earnestly worked to make the Larkinson Clan more prosperous.

His relationships with the various mech designers also deteriorated due to isolation.

So much had happened during his last trip that it seemed as if an entire lifetime had passed.

Ves could barely recognize people such as Viktor MacMillan, Harry Kaikkonen, Adrian Marceau and Kelsey Ampatoch.

Only his relationship with Alexa Streon remained the same, and that was because they corresponded on a regular basis due to their master-disciple relationship.

Perhaps it was not all that bad for him to develop a bit more distance from the other mech designers.
