"Disaster,"
Alphonse seemed lost in thought. He lowered his head and said somberly, "Have the people on the ground already forgotten the truth about that event…?
"Heh, it's understandable. After all, even I've forgotten how long it's been—twenty years, or thirty years…"
Without waiting for the player to urge him, Alphonse took a deep breath, looked up, and said, "Where should I begin…?
"I am Alphonse Anderson: a billionaire, the 21st century's most outstanding biochemist, a philanthropist, and the owner of the Libra Company.
"When I took over from my father, the Libra Company was just an obscure local juice factory in Boston. But by the turn of the second millennium, it had grown into a global monopoly, providing chemical euphoria to all of humanity."
As he spoke of these things, Alphonse's tone became animated. He glanced at the silent player in the heavy protective suit and sighed softly.
