"Is that all you have to say?"
The person by the hospital bed asked calmly.
"There’s more. The true leader of the company is an extremely secretive individual; even we have never seen his true face. But one time, I happened to hear how the company’s people addressed him," Brock recalled that dreadful memory, which he would have preferred to leave buried in his heart if not for the pandemic that had taken everything from him. "That person has no name; the company’s people all refer to him as ’Corruption.’"
He had never heard of anyone who would choose such a name for themselves.
It was filled with an aura of death and ominousness.
"I understand," said the person by the bed, turning away. Brock’s tone became even more urgent, "Wait, wait a moment!"
His gaze once again swept over the apple on the bedside table. Knowing he had no right to make any demands as a Sinner, he still couldn’t help but ask, "This fruit, can it save this nation?"
Brock had never thought that one day he would pin the hopes of Oasis on a spoiled apple.
He couldn’t think of anything crazier.
"Save this nation?"
The retreating footsteps halted.
She turned around, came to the bedside table, and gently picked up the apple that had been bitten into.
She walked to the window, allowing the cool evening breeze to sweep through every corner of the room.
"That depends on how strong your desires are," she stated quietly.
With a gentle toss, the apple was thrown out the window, vanishing with the evening breeze into the dawn that was about to break.
The next moment, Brock heard a roaring sound.
The roar spread through every corner of Lira like the tolling of a bell, seemingly signaling to all those who were huddled in their homes with doors and windows bolted.
Then came the violent shaking.
Everything in the hospital room shook violently with the sudden earthquake, and Brock, with his eyes wide open, witnessed the arrival of dawn and the rapidly growing plant that, in the blink of an eye, surpassed any skyscraper in Lira.
Something entered through the open window and extended all the way to his hospital bed.
