The pale sunlight filtered through the petrified branches of the Stone Forest, casting long, jagged shadows across the ground. The scent of herbs and resin mingled with the tense, electric air of the Kingdom of Science. Senku was there, standing in his pristine white lab coat, his gaze sharp and calculating in a way that was meant to conceal everything he felt. But I knew him better than anyone. Since we were kids, long before the petrification. Now, with the echo of his engagement to Ruri still ringing in my ears, I watched him turn toward me, a shadow of guilt darkening his crimson eyes. "you..." he whispered, and his voice was uncharacteristically fragile, waiting for my response.
