Even after two weeks had passed, the emperor’s speech remained a hot topic of discussion. This was remarkably long for something to stay relevant in the fast-paced world of the internet.

Far from fading into obscurity, the emperor's speech seemed to gain momentum, its importance escalating with each passing day, leaving the public increasingly intrigued.

Today was the day of the official imperial funeral for the deceased explorers, broadcast live through the imperial news channels.

The viewership was enormous, especially after the empire released video footage of the evacuation that showed the chaotic and disastrous conditions the planet was in, which had led to the scientists' deaths.

The footage seized the public's attention, as many were astounded by the fact that only a few lives were lost in the midst of such a chaotic natural disaster. The survival of the majority was a testament to the advancement of imperial technology.

The funerals took place at the new imperial cemetery gro

    A month after his address to the empire and two weeks after the funeral, the empire kept its promise by releasing comprehensive data about the data collected throughout the entire exploration fleet's mission. The release included almost everything, except for a few classified sections, which were clearly marked as such for those reviewing the information."Holy shit," Ryan, a microbiologist, shouted involuntarily when he saw the amount of data."What is it?" Irene, his coworker and wife, asked, startled by his outburst as she prepared breakfast in their comfortable home."Come take a look at what the empire gifted us," he said, his face alight with excitement as he called her over, knowing she'd be even more thrilled than he was."This is going to take us centuries to go through," she said with a tone brimming with excitement, contrary to what one might expect from someone facing such an immense task. "But first, we should request at least a month off." The sheer volume of data in the

    {With the changes being agreed upon, I hereby declare that the amendment has passed and will be ratified the moment it is signed by the emperor.} Gaia announced, as usual, acting as the chair of the imperial council. She then hit the gavel to conclude the session.Everyone in the room clapped for a moment, with many of the watchers unsure if the applause was out of obligation or genuine happiness. However, the smiles on their faces suggested it was the latter.Gaia then brought the meeting to a close, as this was the only agenda item for today's session and the attendees had other pressing matters to attend to.…….."Why didn’t you ratify the constitution if it had already passed the council in the first place?” Rina asked him the moment he left VR.“What is the urgency in it, darling? We teach our children (not his students at school) not to pay for anything or sign anything without seeing it first, and you want me to do the same for whole new races without seeing them?”His response

    Proxima Centauri.It had been a year and three months since the messenger was sent, and everything continued as usual, following the meticulously prepared plan from the start.Proxima A was as busy as ever, perhaps even busier than before. If observed closely from space, one could see rudimentary cities nestled within the massive tree branches where the Proximians were born. These cities were built in a manner that integrated seamlessly with the trees rather than destroying them, creating a beautiful and harmonious ambiance.As per the universal bureaucracy rule, there always needs to be a meeting taking place. Currently, one such meeting was occurring between Ayaka, the official responsible for the planet, and admiral Bianchi, the leader of the entire exploration fleet."We are expected to complete the training within a month and should start extracting them from the VR pods with everything they need to live together with humans and by themselves already taught," Ayaka reported to Fl

    Space between Solar and Proxima star system.{Permission granted to access the network} announced the AI controlling the ten spaceships that had halted a week away from the Proxima Centauri star system upon receiving access to the Proxima exploration fleet's network.The reason the ships had come to a stop at this specific distance, rather than proceeding further or turning back, was that it was the farthest point where they could still connect to the exploration fleet's quantum towers. Additionally, continuing to the Proxima star system would mean wasting another week, which was unnecessary since their mission was brief and purely functional, not for sentimental reasons.{Initiate communication anchoring.} The AI began by setting up the Proxima side of the communication network as the endpoint for the quantum communication link it was establishing.{Initiating network boot and docking.} As it issued this command, the AI sent a ping to the nearest installed quantum towers that the ten

    Fifty-five minutes later.The entire Proxima Centauri star system returned to a semblance of its previous silence before humans arrived. The majority of the machines were put into automatic mode, while those requiring human control were switched to power-saving mode.Everyone who wasn’t engaged in an essential task had already donned their VR devices and logged into the local VR network. They clicked on the invitation link, which transported them to a massive meeting hall capable of accommodating all of them. The hall reminded them of their last gathering of such magnitude, right before they embarked on their exploration mission.“What do you think they gathered us for?” Yavuz, a mechanical engineer standing next to Lee, asked him, as Lee was currently one of the most well-known people in the exploration fleet.He was on the same level of being known as the fleet admiral, with everyone knowing and jokingly addressing him as the father of all the created Proximians since they were lite

    Aron, having completed his lengthy discussion with the fleet's admiral and granted him leave, sat alone in his VR room, enveloped in silence.{What’s on your mind?} Nova inquired as she materialized beside him, breaking the stillness of the room.“I’m trying to imagine the range of emotions they’ll experience during their reunions,” Aron replied, accustomed to her probing questions.“The majority will feel happiness,” he said, “but there will be a few who experience profound distress. Some of the soldiers might face the harsh reality that their spouses, whom they left behind, were unfaithful—either having cheated out of remorse or used the mission as a chance to welcome others into their lives during their absence.”“The opposite is also true,” Aron continued. “Some members of the crew, while on the exploration mission, were unfaithful to their spouses. Additionally, some will receive the devastating news of the deaths of their loved ones during their absence.”He reflected on these s

    Aron had been spending more and more time with his family since he had decided to go to Proxima Centauri at the Proximians tree folks' request, and that decision was further reinforced after the two-star systems were connected.An hour before, the Emperor addressed the Proxima Centauri exploration fleet.While the fleet admiral was sending out an emergency call order for the meeting Aron had requested and scheduled for an hour later, Ayaka was seen leaving the mothership and heading back to the planet, having been assigned another mission.Upon landing at the designated zone, Ayaka wasted no time. She stepped off the ship with a suitcase in hand and walked purposefully toward a lone tree.When she was about a hundred meters away, the lone tree began to shake and transform. Branches and leaves twisted and rearranged until a humanoid figure emerged, facing Ayaka with an uncanny valley smile."Welcome, Ayaka," the humanoid tree said. Her tone and manner of speaking seemed to have evolved

  • Getting a Technology System in Modern Day   The Meeting

    Ayaka wasted no time and immediately logged into the VR, reporting the results of her discussion with Birch to the emperor. After logging off, she opened the suitcase, which immediately materialized a physical copy of the emperor thanks to the nanomachines inside it.The physical copy's eyes had been closed since its creation, but they shortly opened, revealing golden irises as the body looked around, adjusting to its new environment.He extended his hand and closed it into a fist, testing the responsiveness and sensation through the nanomachine body. Feeling the smooth movement and the sensory feedback, he nodded with a satisfied expression.But that didn't last long. ‘I don’t like this stuffy feeling,’ he thought to himself. Currently, he could be considered to have his consciousness transferred into this body, and as a result, he could only sense what this body was sensing. With it being a purely technology-based nanomachine, he wasn’t sensing a single bit of mana or experiencing

    Near Pluto’s orbit, a massive space station was in the final stages of construction. Only the finishing touches and full-scale testing remained before it could officially open for use and visitation by imperial citizens.Spanning nearly a thousand kilometers in diameter—about a third of the Moon’s size—the station looked nothing like a natural satellite. Its sleek, glossy exterior was adorned with enormous glass panels, each manufactured in space. These panels stretched for kilometers in length and width, and hundreds of meters in thickness, allowing light to pass through effortlessly. Yet, they weren’t just for aesthetics. Equipped with advanced safety features, the glass could filter heat and radiation while controlling the amount of light passing through in a precise five-centimeter grid, ranging from full transparency to complete blackout. Additionally, they were reinforced to withstand asteroid impacts, a testament to the station’s durability and the prestige of its purpose.This

  • STARGATE Dressing Rehearsal

    Aron sat before a stack of papers containing the final experiment data. Though he was in the universal simulation, he liked to switch up how he processed information, avoiding fatigue from relying on a single medium—especially since he spent what amounted to centuries conducting experiments in accelerated simulation time.{From the tests, it works as expected,} Nova, his ever-present assistant, stated once she was sure he had finished reviewing the data."I know, but let’s do a real full-dress rehearsal," Aron replied, lifting his gaze from the papers.He always insisted on a full-scale trial before declaring any research complete. Unlike the universal simulation, where things could be conjured at will, the real world required careful logistical considerations. Even a flawless design could become an operational nightmare if mobilization wasn’t accounted for.{Okay,} Nova acknowledged, and in an instant, they both vanished from the lab, reappearing in the vast emptiness of space, far f

  • Discussion and Finalizations

    It took Nyx several hours to sift through the vast amount of data collected before she was ready to deliver her findings.“Using the asteroid field as a natural cosmic phenomenon to mask the wormhole’s opening worked in our favor. As far as we can tell, no one in the vicinity detected it,} Nyx stated as she began her report.A scientist in the room frowned. "There were people where we opened the wormhole? What are the odds of that?"Nyx responded immediately.“While the natural occurrence of life in the galaxy is rare, remember that we are infiltrating Conclave territory. Intelligent life is abundant here. Furthermore, asteroid fields serve as valuable resource hubs for spacefaring civilizations, which greatly increases the likelihood of encountering activity.}As she spoke, the room’s environment transformed, shifting into a massive asteroid field—a direct projection of the data collected. Nyx had opted to show rather than tell, planning to let the simulation play before diving into

  • Tempting Fate

    Crack!Had there been air to carry the sound, that would have been the noise echoing through space. Instead, there was only silence as the fabric of space fractured—a jagged crack forming for the briefest of moments.A small, round object emerged, slipping through the gap before it sealed itself shut, leaving no trace of its existence. The only evidence that anything had occurred was the lone sphere, now drifting amid the vastness of space.Roughly the size of a football, the sphere remained still for only a moment before it came to life. It scanned its surroundings, finding itself deep within an asteroid field, surrounded by tumbling rocks and frozen comet nuclei.Without hesitation, the object accelerated, weaving through the chaotic debris field with ease and with no visible propulsion method. Tiny blue sparks flickered from its surface each time it passed near an asteroid or an icy fragment, scattering briefly before fading into nothingness.It was collecting data.Its movement fo

  • The Test II

    Yaloria’s gaze shifted to the battery status display. Despite the intensity of the fight so far, only about one percent of the mana battery’s energy had been expended—and even that was already nearly replenished.It was a stark contrast to the mechas she once piloted.The Yrall Coalition mechas were directly powered by their reactors, like plugging a device straight into a wall socket—efficient until something went wrong. If the reactor failed or was damaged, the mecha would instantly shut down, leaving its pilot stranded and vulnerable.But these mechas were different.Instead of drawing power directly from the fusion reactor, they ran on mana batteries—a buffer between the machine and its core power source. These batteries didn’t just store energy; they were constantly recharged by the reactor, keeping them at full capacity. More than that, they were embedded throughout the mecha’s frame, like blood flowing through a body, ensuring every part had immediate access to power.Even if t

  • The Test I

    A few minutes before the fight began, an alarm blared across the testing grounds, and all personnel in the vicinity received an immediate evacuation order. Given the low number of individuals present, the process was completed in under a minute.Once the area was cleared, a massive shield dome began forming, expanding to cover a thirty-kilometer diameter and reaching a height of five kilometers. This barrier ensured that nothing occurring inside would escape—critical for a semi-live fire test.Outside the dome, the evacuated soldiers gathered, their eyes fixed on the transparent section of the shield, which projected a live feed of the battle about to unfold."Thank God they sent us to move those boxes," Charlie muttered, his voice brimming with excitement.On the screen, two towering mechas stood a kilometer apart, weapons drawn, locked in an intense stare-down. His earlier complaints about manual labor were long forgotten—he knew he was about to witness history.This was the first-e

    BAM!! A heavy thud echoed as a box was set down, the sound hinting at its weight.“We have tractor-beam technology at our disposal, so why are we hauling these things by hand? Isn’t this a waste of both resources and our valuable time?” Charlie, a soldier in an Imperial army uniform, grumbled as he straightened his back and headed toward the remaining boxes they needed to move.Despite his complaints, there was no hesitation in his movements, creating a stark contrast between his words and actions.“You’re already using anti-gravity devices to carry them, so what are you whining about? Besides, we’re in a testing zone—do you really think they’d let us use high-end tech and risk a disaster mid-experiment?” his friend retorted, dropping his box before jogging to catch up.“Laziness is the mother of innovation. Do you think we’d have advanced this far if we weren’t too lazy to repeat the same tasks for centuries? And if that were really their concern, they could just disable the equipmen

    John lifted his head from the piles of documents in front of him, his expression calm but carrying the weight of responsibility."How is the progress of our preparations?"At this moment, few individuals in the empire were busier than him. As the overseer of the entire imperial military, he was tasked with preparing for the massive military restructuring, ensuring every division was ready for the upcoming changes. His monthly progress reports to the emperor demanded at least an intermediate understanding of every research project under his jurisdiction. Though he could have had the research heads report directly, John insisted on personally understanding each project—an exhausting endeavor, made possible only through knowledge assimilation and time acceleration technology.A response quickly followed, {I have already finished decrypting all of the information we collected during the war and from the captured Xalthar’s ship.

  • A Journey Into the Unknown

    While the emperor remained engrossed in his work, Mars—still concealed from all external sensors—was undergoing significant modifications. The planetary shield, which doubled as a stealth veil, was in the process of receiving a major upgrade.When the emperor had first deployed the shield, he had also integrated it with a rune-computer interface, allowing the shield’s runes to be controlled and adjusted through computational input rather than manual intervention. Now, this interface was being augmented with the newly developed stealth technology, a fusion of imperial advancements and Shadari stealth techniques.Once the system was activated, the planetary shield itself remained unchanged, but a new outermost veil formed around it, acting as the first line of stealth defense. This additional layer further reinforced Mars’ invisibility, making detection by any known technology even more improbable.However, the original stealth properties of the shield were not disabled. Instead, they r
