"I volunteer for this operation!" Leo firmly blurted out.Everyone at the table turned to look at him when he said that.In any case, they weren't surprised to see Leo volunteer easily. Except for the head general, he was someone everyone respected because of his strength.Even the generals there, although they were too proud to admit it, had great respect for Leo.Why? The reason was simple. Leo was strong, and not only was he strong, but he was also someone who was not easily swayed.He was just as strong as the generals, even a little stronger.Although he was only a sergeant, most generals in the base respected him and would always avoid being on his bad side. As for his co-sergeants, they dared not to mess with him, and sometimes they even respected him like a general, even though he had the same rank as them.But Leo did not care about those things. He only does what he thinks is right and pays due respect to the higher-ups.Seeing that no one opposed Leo's proposition, Gen. Ryk
"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
Without waiting for Shota's response, Orah entered the air.He went higher and higher until he was no longer visible and was obscured by the dark clouds of the planet. But even then, he still had the humanoid figure in his sight and didn't take his eyes off it for even a second."If that's Erix, then our problem is half solved. We just have to find a way to get back to Earth, easy enough, right?" Orah muttered as he flapped his wings a little faster to increase his speed....Erix decided to take a break after several hours of walking. He spotted a small rock at the corner of his path. After scanning the arena, he decided to rest on the rock since there was no beast in sight.Although it was a bit strange to see a rock in the middle of a barren field, Erix didn't think much about it. He simply walked towards it."This planet is really boring, what do you think, Lena?" Erix spoke out as he sat down on the small rock.'What can I say, it's indeed boring. Unless you want beasts to keep yo
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
[Quest failed]Erix wanted to cry out in frustration when he saw this message, but he managed to hold himself.He had missed the kill. Orah slaughtered the beast before he could even launch an attack.This was frustrating, but what could he do? He lost the exp and could not do anything about it.Looking at Orah, he could see a pleased look on his face. Orah was pleased that he had finally killed the beast that had been bothering them without knowing that someone had lost something important because of his actions.'It's not his fault. Don't punch him in the face with that look. He is completely innocent. It's you who is slow and dimwitted,' Lena interjected, which upset Erix even more.'You are really good at pissing one off,' Erix hissed, annoyed."Thank Goodness, we finally killed that pesky thing," Orah gloated as he approached the body of the Skystone, from which a green liquid was still gushing.As soon as he arrived where the body was lying, he knelt beside it and tore it open. H
"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
After about thirty minutes of flight, Erix and Orah finally arrived on the roof where Shota was patiently waiting for them.Before that, however, Shota had taken control; he was the best at handling situations that required dialogue.Rigel was ruthless and was only good at fighting. He was messy and rash at almost everything. He believed violence was the best way to handle situations."Why the hell did you two come after me? Do you know you can die of starvation here?" Erix asked the moment he landed on the roof.As much as he wanted help getting off this planet, he didn't want to jeopardize the safety of his friends.As long as his blood bank was filled to the brim, he was immune to long-term starvation, but that wasn't the case with his friends. Without food and water, they'd be vulnerable."Ah, have you forgotten that I'm also a demon? Such petty things cannot harm me. I can absorb energy from the bodies of beasts, so I'm good," Orah said, smiling wryly.Just as Erix wasn't affected
Erix had a shocked expression on his face when he recognized the voice behind him. The familiar voice came from none other than Shota."I wasn't bluffing, guys. I got here about twenty minutes ago," Shota blurted out with a smile.Erix turned around doubtfully to check if he had imagined the voice, but that wasn't the case.He saw Shota walking toward them with a cheeky smile on his face. He wasn't imagining anything, but seeing the reality.Orah was so shocked that he couldn't even say a word. Shota said he had arrived about twenty minutes ago, but how?"You didn't get your hopes up for nothing. And I wasn't bluffing," Shota added before stopping in front of Erix."A-Are you really here? But how did you get here so fast?" Erix stuttered in a dazed state of belief."I'm afraid I can't tell you that now. But you'll know soon enough." This was the only answer Shota could give at the moment.Certainly, he wouldn't hide Rigel forever, but at the same time, he didn't want to reveal his exis
