Chapter 327 The Funeral

Finished

She wanted a life like that, too—simple and uncomplicated. She truly didn’t want to be that caged canary…

Soon, it was Fiona’s turn.

Fiona’s improvement over the past month had been quite noticeable as well.

She could now perfectly control both her physical strength and the power of her Divine Sigil without any of the instability she had struggled with before.

Her combat instincts and saber techniques had also improved significantly.

Overall, her progress was quite good.

Steven patiently guided her as well.

Afterward, he had the two girls spar with each other.

Steven sat to the side and watched.

Around six o’clock, he received a message from Olivia.

“Steven, Big Spoon’s funeral is at nine tomorrow morning. After that, we’ll be holding a small meeting.”

“Got it,” Steven replied.

“Be careful of anything the Reads might try.”

“Understood.”

Steven absorbed energy from a divine crystal while watching the two girls fight.

Bianca’s improvement was even more obvious. Even against Fiona now, she no longer showed any clear disadvantage.

Steven pondered the situation. Was this turning into a future where he and his wife would dominate everything together?

A smile tugged at the corner of his lips. Everything was getting better and better.

By the time the training session ended, it was already past seven–thirty.

“Stay for dinner before you leave,” Steven suggested.

Fiona shook her head. “No. I won’t interrupt your time together any longer. I’ve already troubled you enough.”

Steven gave a wry smile. “It’s just a meal.”

Fiona shook her head again. Just then, her Starlink flashed with a new message.

She glanced at it, and her expression immediately changed.

“I have to go.”

Fiona hurried away.

Steven called after her. “Big Spoon’s funeral is at nine tomorrow morning. Don’t forget.”

Without turning around, Fiona replied, “I remember.”

Watching her leave in such a rush, Steven frowned slightly.

It was rare to see her act like that.

Late that night, the two of them lay together in bed.

Naturally, they couldn’t help fooling around for a while.

A faint blush colored Bianca’s cheeks.

Steven was still reluctant to stop.

At this moment, Bianca nestled against his chest.

They quietly breathed in each other’s familiar scent.

“I’m going to Big Spoon’s funeral tomorrow. Do you want to come?”

Bianca asked, “Can I?”

“Of course. Aren’t you planning to join Team Ashen in the future? Besides, we’ve all shared meals together. It would be appropriate for you to attend.”

Bianca nodded. “Alright. We’ll go together.

“Do you think the Reads will make a move?”

Steven nodded. “I don’t know. We just have to stay careful.

Uriah looked at him with both gratitude and lingering sadness. “If it weren’t for you, my ashes might be buried here today too.”

Steven shook his head. “We’re teammates.”

The survivors still felt lingering fear, as that battle had come frighteningly close to wiping all of them out.

Louie carefully cleaned around Big Spoon’s grave. Among everyone present, he was the most heartbroken.

Danny sighed. “If only I hadn’t been injured…”

Olivia comforted everyone. “What’s done is done.”

Everyone nodded.

At that moment, Fiona arrived, looking somewhat rushed.

She greeted everyone briefly.

Soon afterward, the funeral began under a heavy atmosphere of grief.

Louie sat before the gravestone and spent a long time talking to Big Spoon.

Everyone personally laid his ashes to rest and placed a handful of earth over them.

Then, one after another, they offered their highest respect, performing the most solemn salute reserved for an Awakened Squad member.

Alan said, “We can’t bring the dead back to life. Big Spoon has old friends here to keep him company, so he won’t be lonely. We can come visit whenever we have time.”

Only then did the group gradually suppress their sorrow.

Several of their former teammates were buried nearby.

Once everything was more or less finished, Alan spoke.

“Let’s head back to headquarters. We have a meeting.”
