All Chapters of Astral Odyssey: Dying Ember: Chapter 201 - Chapter 210

Angie's three teammates could not answer her. They were ready to follow her to the death, but to partake in something as seemingly silly and reckless, then lose their lives to that? They began to have second thoughts about it. Their expressions clouded over as their loyalty conflicted with their rationality. Angie softened her tone. “I understand that this is something huge to absorb. Take your time to think about it. Think it through, carefully and thoroughly. Don’t rush it. Understood?”The men looked at her with grave expressions, but nodded. At the same time, the door to their room opened. Angie and her team immediately straightened their posture and saluted the man who entered with a team of technicians. "Report." Their section commander demanded."Angie Dawson, reporting. I punched the mimic and it fell apart." Angie got the ball rolling."Brandon Fields, reporting. We know that should be impossible.

"What?" Elias broke out of his little trance-like state."Hm? Nothing." Angie recovered her flat expression fast, then walked away."Can't be. I'm sure I heard you say something.""That's some really good lie you told at the clinic to get me out.” She changed the topic, hoping that he would get derailed too. “I didn't know you'd stoop to that to get what you want." He shrugged. "You didn't seem keen about the checkup either. So, I figured, why not? I didn't think you would mind. Do you mind?"Angie shook her head."What exactly do you hate so much about the clinic?""Nothing much.""Impossible. Did you know how much hostility and negativity radiated off of you when we left the clinic?"/I can't trust his blabbermouth…/"If you're so curious, feel free to check in each time I visit the clinic.""Huh? Why're you so sure that you'll return to the clinic?""You'll know w

“I’m planning to fake my death during my upcoming mission. I’ll leave behind some trouble for them to be preoccupied with, so that you can sneak out and come with me on the mission.” Angie shared more details of her plan.“Does everyone on the mission know of this?” Her mother pulled back from the hug to discuss more seriously.“I’ve told them but they haven’t decided yet.”Her mother frowned.“Don’t worry. Even if they don’t go, they’re trustworthy. They won’t blab.”“Do they… Know?”Angie shook her head. Her mother sighed in relief. “You know… Since we’re leaving… We could cause a breach in the military’s security and let them get ravaged by all those monsters out there.” Her eyes sparkled like a little child. It was on the tip of Angie’s tongue to reject he

Over the next few days, the results of the new rearrangement already began to show. Due to different reasons, Angie, Elias, Jeffery, and Alfonso reached a new peak performance. The better and more resilient teams approached them during the team battles segment and received pointers and guidance. The rest of the teams that gave whatever excuses for their low performance and rested on their laurels got relegated to a new division. Although the purpose of the new division was left unsaid, any smart and observant individual could infer from the composition of the teams and how much resources went to training them. This further spurred the teams in the original division to stay focused and driven. Valerie was one of those who got relegated. Despite her relationship with Conrad, he could not help her out too explicitly. Otherwise, it would only give others more reason to disapprove of their relationship. Conrad was already doing what he could to save Valerie from being summoned by the hi

"Look, you don’t have to accept this.” Angie suddenly said. “I told you, I had another plan in store. If you don’t agree, we’re just different and we’re each better off not working together. You wouldn’t want any issues from our differences coming up while we’re out there.”[Angie? What’re you saying? What if she really disagrees?]/We can’t forget about keeping negativity to a minimum. I don’t want her displeasure with me to cause any trouble, especially when she’s the lead in this story./[Oh… How burdensome.] BaoBao grumbled on Angie’s behalf.Meanwhile, Valerie sucked on her bottom lip. There was a perpetual frown between her brows. Angie had caught on to her. She wanted to agree just because she was the only one with the issue. However, Angie was right. If they did not settle their differences now, more issues will app
