As they listened to what Nyx had just told them, the room descended into a deadly silence.
No one spoke as Lucas and Aurora tried to digest what they had just been told.
Nyx merely let them be lost in their own thoughts, trying to swallow everything he had just said.
He simply looked out the window at the sea of trees, watching the leaves ruffle in the wind howling outside.
The sound of a clock ticking echoed throughout the entire room.
An entire minute passed without anyone making the slightest sound.
No one spoke...
Two minutes.
Three minutes.
Four minutes.
After five minutes, the silence was finally broken by Lucas, who...
Laughed.
"Pfft!"
A hollow laugh escaped from his lips as Aurora broke out of her own thoughts and looked at him weirdly.
Nyx also finally turned around and looked at Lucas curiously, his eyebrows shooting up.
