After Arran finished speaking, he didn’t wait for the big man to say anything at all. Just like he said, they only had two minutes to break out of the trap and three more to escape before the ship self-destructed. If they couldn’t make it out in time, then they would be toast.With all these considered, Arran quickly spoke to the big man.“You’ve heard what I said. We don’t have a lot of time. We have to get you out of there in two min... no, in a minute. That’s the only way we can guarantee we make it out in time before the ship explodes.”Ha!Hearing Arran’s words, the big man laughed mirthlessly.In a self-deprecating manner, the big man said to Arran.“What is the point of that? We’ve already tried everything we can, but still can’t break through the glass trapping us inside. Main command says we should try our best, but what they are really saying is that they are leaving us to die in here.”“Well, it’s not like I can blame them. After all, I am the one who led us into this mess
Arran didn’t have time for this, nor was he ready to explain himself to anybody.The big man seemed like he wanted to explain himself, but Arran immediately stopped him from speaking.“Listen, I don’t have time to deal with this. We are currently on a tight deadline, so you can explain yourself after I finally get you guys out of there.”Hearing Arran’s words, the big man was first stunned before the implications of what he said dawned on him.Feeling doubtful, the big man asked Arran tentatively for clarification.“Do you mean you have a way to break the glass and get us out?”Arran nodded in affirmation.Immediately, the big man became incomparably excited. Forgetting about the other cadets that had become wary of him, he quickly focused on Arran and asked.“How are you going to do it? Quickly, explain it to me.”Throwing the big man an annoyed look, Arran said, “Would you rather I explain myself or just get you out of there directly?”“Uh, sorry. Please carry on.”The big man was e
Boundary!Arran’s voice was like a foghorn, carrying a magnetic sound that cleared the confusion in people’s hearts.The cadets, after hearing it, were brought back from their daze. Now the way they looked at Arran changed.No longer were they suspicious and wary of Arran. Now they were very excited.The cadets hadn’t been able to react in time when Arran started removing his space suit and, when they wanted to stop him, he suddenly revealed his wings to them. This had given all of them pause as they finally realized that Arran was a Kingsman.This had caught them by surprise, but they were still excited to hear the word Arran called out.Boundary... this was an ability that the kingsmen possessed. With this ability, all laws were in their command.Inside their boundary, a Kingsman was king!This was a saying used to describe the power that boundary granted a Kingsman. With it, they could influence and change the laws and rules as they pleaded.Finally, the cadets understood how Arran
Having rested enough, Arran stood and was prepared to leave.By now, the cadets had already dealt with the monster with the help of Arran’s unit, who broke into the glass cage to assist them.Despite Arran being weakened, his boundary still persisted, as its activation wasn’t affected by any conditions. As long as a Kingsman wanted, their boundaries could continue to exist, even if they were dead or unconscious. It would also still maintain the last effect it had by feeding off the energy in the universe.Without their troubling regenerative ability, the tentacle monsters were nothing to the cadets who weeded hem them out in short order.After the battle ended, the cadets checked the rest of their inventory to see how many supplies they had remaining.“Leader, we are almost out of ammo. Most of us used our last energy cells in the battle and can’t participate in subsequent battles.”The big man frowned when questioned when he heard this.“How did we use up so many energy cells in one
Boom!Ahhhh!Bang!A powerful explosion rocked the entire space cruiser, causing it to shake unstably as everything inside was sent flying in an uncontrollable mess.The cadets were taken by surprise by the sudden occurrence and they ended up being thrown around from all the shaking before hitting the hard metal walls and floor after everything had ended.In a flash, the cadets sprang to their feet and surveyed their surroundings quickly to defend against any possible attacks.“Where did that come from? Were we attacked?”“No, it seemed like something exploded just now. I wonder what it is?”“Do you think we stepped into a trap?”“Everybody silence. Now is not the time to be asking questions. Don’t be distracted and watch your surroundings in case of an ambush.”As the cadets discussed amongst themselves, the big man suddenly interrupted and scolded all of them. They didn’t know what had happened to they all needed to maintain incredible vigilance.At this moment, another explosion ro
Arran suddenly jumped out of the spaceship, not giving anybody the chance to stop him. In a panic, a few cadets jumped after him, hoping to save him. Although it was possible to survive in the void of space, the cadets hadn’t reached that level, so they were still very vulnerable to cosmic radiation and other hostile elements of space.The rest of the cadets soon followed through, as they didn’t have a choice. Staying on the ship meant being blown up. But as long as they managed to get far away from the ship, they might be able to survive.That was if they didn’t get implicated in the space battle that was going on outside.The space suits the cadets wore were equipped with fusion-fueled rocket boosters with a built-in oxygen supply that was recyclable, so even if they were stuck in space, there was no need for them to worry about running out of air to breathe.When the cadets made it outside, they first searched for Arran. They were expecting to see him frozen in the cold void of spa
“Hello, can anybody hear me? This is team leader Burton calling to all units in the vicinity. I and the rest of my teammates have been Martin in space. We request rescue and assistance to return.”“If anybody can hear me, my location beacon has been set to publicly broadcast on all internal channels. Please send help immediately. Some of us are injured and need medical attention.”The big man, whose name is Burton, sent a call requesting for help to the internal channel of the Aeth army stationed here. Around him were a few cadets whom he had managed to find after they were sent flying by the shockwaves of the explosion.All of these cadets were quite lucky. They hadn’t been sent flying too far away and had ended up close to each other, so they were able to gather quickly to support themselves. The only bad news was that they were still close to the main battlefield.In the distance, the cadets could make out fast-zipping figures spiraling through space, chasing one another while shoo
In the dark void of space, hovering over the main command ship overseeing the mission jurisdiction Arran was assigned to, a beautiful figure floated in the barren void, her flaxen hair flowing and cascading behind her like a gentle stream.The crisp red and white uniform donning her figure reflected dazzling in contrast to the bleak darkness that surrounded her. A pair of majestic wings unfurled on her back, their feathers like tongues of dancing flames burning in the void.Commander Margo’s eyes stretched into the distant void, her gaze overseeing the battle that was taking place between the Aeth army ships and the criminals attempting the flee.Nothing could escape from her sight, not even the criminal leaders scurrying like rats in a tunnel after trapping her cadets could escape commander Margo’s eyes. It was as if her eyes could seem to pierce through even the greatest tricks and illusions.Commander Margo watched the battle silently. Her body, which she used to physically exist i
