Arran and Trapp joined the queue and waited for their turn to register. The line was really long due to countless people constantly trying to enter the main area of the station.The registration process to enter the main area of the station was fairly simple. One just needed to provide a public identity that could be investigated before you would be allowed access to the main area. This was probably a way to keep track of everybody who enters the main area, so no matter one true identity that is hidden in the dark, they had to at least provide a public identity that is easily investigable.This was the only condition, and it was non-negotiable.Hearing such a strict requirement to be granted access to the main area, Arran was even more curious about what specialties the main area offered. From all the fuss over registering and paying money to buy a ticket, there ought to be something truly remarkable inside if it could draw so many people from inside the ether a

"The universe sanitation organization that is made up of janitors is your go-to people when you want something to clean up. The exact definition of their job description is very broad. Some might call them common cleaners, while others consider them to be scavengers. Either way, they are professionals when it comes to what they do. If it wasn't for the fact that the universe sanitation organization does not have a lot of experts, their status would not fall below organizations like the mercenary organization."Trapp was still explaining to Arran about the universe sanitation organization.He continued, saying. "The universe sanitation organization, or the sanitary department, as they are more popularly called, has too many members in their ranks. That coupled with them being only a third-rate organization that exists on the goodwill of others even if they are highly regarded will not have much status in this station. Their members will only be able to enjoy the most ba

Just as Arran was considering Trapp's offer, one of the soldiers guarding the platform suddenly addressed them and said, "Excuse me sirs, but can you hurry and move along? There are still a lot of people waiting in line behind you two to enter."The guard reminded Arran and Trapp that they were holding up the line and they should move along. Usually in this kind of situation, Arran and Trapp would have both been thrown to the back of the line to delay everybody. But this did not happen. Instead, when the guard spoke to Arran, there was even a respectful tone in his voice. It could be seen that even the guards of Fort Crawford, who could be quite unreasonable at times, could only behave cautiously around Arran.They thought that Arran being able to bring out so many precious gems one after the other meant that he probably had a powerful background. And not only did Arran have a background that was so powerful, but his status was not low there at all. If not, he wouldn't

Trapp raised his hands and removed the hood covering his face. At once, Trapp's extremely handsome face was revealed to everybody there.The whole crowd fell into stunned silence as everybody was caught off guard.Nobody had been expecting the face hidden underneath that thick hood to be like this. In fact, what almost everybody had been expecting was an ugly face that was very rough and hard and filled with hideous pockmarks and heavy pustules.These people couldn't be blamed for having such thoughts. When a person completely covered up their face underneath a heavy hood that prevented anybody from spying on their appearance, people would usually attribute it to them having something to hide and in most cases, it was because they were very ugly and dreaded the thought of others seeing their faces.There was no helping it as this is how people usually thought. Even if one suspected that Trapp was very handsome under the hood, they would have dismissed it

"Wait!" Trapp said aloud to Arran."What is it?" Arran asked."We still haven't come to a decision about what we should do with the rest of the money." Trapp reminded."Remember what I said before? That we should employ somebody using the change leftover from what you paid so that they could be of help to us. Well, I feel this idea is really good. Trust me, with an additional helper, the benefits we gain in the main area will be much greater. Right now is the time to choose from among those here before others can get to them first. It's even the best, since there is enough to employ one more person with the rest of the change.""So what do you say?" Trapp said to Arran.Arran looked at Trapp suspiciously. He didn't understand why Trapp was so adamant that they find somebody to work for them after paying for their ticket."What's the reason behind this suggestion of yours?" Arran questioned Trapp."What exactly is it that goes on in th
