On a shady planet, far from the coordinates of Earth and far from the sun, a seemingly dark-haired boy lies unconscious in the middle of a dark wasteland.Having repeatedly dyed his naturally red hair, his hair now looked dark, as if it were his normal hair color.Destroyed buildings could be seen far away from him, with a few boulders here and there. All the buildings far and around him looked destroyed and abandoned.There was no sign of life or vegetation on the land. The whole planet looked abandoned and deserted, with no civilization or modern technology.The entire planet looked like a place where an apocalypse had taken place in the past.You could also see beasts of various kinds and levels moving freely all over the planet, as this was their home.The destroyed buildings were obviously the work of high-level beasts that went berserk and destroyed the whole place.This was the reason why the planet was considered damn dangerous and not fit to live in. At least until all the bea

Instead of going to class, Nicole made her way to Erix's room.When she got there, Rin was still asleep. What woke him up was her knocking."Hey, what are you doing here so early in the morning?" Rin asked in a sleepy voice, still lying on his bed."Are you serious right now? Seven in the morning is early, really?" Nicole articulated, shocked."Wait, seven?!" Rin exclaimed, jumping down from his bed."Oh, no, I didn't know it was seven already. Usually, Erix wakes me. Now he isn't here, I overslept. Give me a few minutes, I'll get ready quickly."With those words, Rin hurried into the bathroom, leaving only Nicole in the room.After Rin left, Nicole quietly walked down to the table in the corner of the room and grabbed the water bottle that was sitting up there.As she was in a rush, she had forgotten to drink water after having breakfast in the cafeteria that morning.Opening the bottle, she gulped down the entire contents in one gulp.Then she went to Erix's bed and lay down there.

"Wait, Shota?! What the hell are you doing here too!!!" Orah exclaimed, shocked.Startled, Shota turned around to fight, thinking it was a beast, but then, he saw a humanoid figure with bat-like wings.And as soon as he saw that, the first thought that popped into his head was that it was a humanoid beast, but he dismissed that thought because humanoid beasts couldn't speak. However, it was still a possibility, so he didn't act completely lax.The planet was quite dark, so he couldn't see the figure's face clearly."Stay back! One more move and you'll regret it!" Shota barked as he began to slowly back away."How the hell do you know my name and who are you?! Make yourself known right now!" He further added."Are you crazy, Shota? It's me, Orah. Don't tell me you don't recognize me. Did coming to this planet mess with your head, hehe…" Orah said jokingly as he carefully flew closer and closer to Shota until he landed five meters away from him."What, Orah? What are you doing here?" Sho

On the other side of the planet, far from the area where the battle between Erix and the Skystone was to take place, Shota would be seen sitting on the roof of a ruined building, talking to himself.Apparently, he was talking to himself, but that wasn't quite. He wasn't talking to himself, he was talking to Rigel."So you really saw that? You know, you're an idiot," Shota said, a little annoyed.'Huh? What did I do wrong?' Rigel asked, confused.So far, he hadn't misbehaved or done anything absurd. He had only told Shota about the image flashes he had been seeing lately, but right after he told him everything, Shota called him an idiot."Because you didn't tell me about it earlier, you're an idiot," Shota retorted, frowning.'Oh, c'mon, we've already talked about it. I'm sorry I didn't tell you. Still, that doesn't change anything, so why are you still annoyed?'"Did you remember anything else?" Shota asked, changing the topic.'Nope. What I told you was the only thing I saw. I didn't

"May I know why you need the teleporter? At least I have the right to ask you that question, don't I?" Gen. Ryker asked with a conflicted look on his face.He wanted to know why Quito needed a teleporter because it was anomalous that someone bypassed other good things and requested only a teleporter."I don't think you have the right to ask that question, sir. Just fulfill my request and we're good. Other than that... I don't think I should remind you," Quito said, smirking wryly.Then he leaned back with his arms crossed and made himself comfortable in his seat.Even more comfortable than the actual owner of the office.Gen. Ryker's expression twitched when he saw the smile on Quito's face. He had the urge to punch Quito in the face and shatter his bones, but he managed to control himself as that would be counterproductive.He had never been so humiliated in his entire life. For a General who had encountered many powerful and important people, he hadn't felt as helpless as he was no
