interstellar fairy tale

July 31, [-], Galactic Calendar

For the people of the entire Muse galaxy, July of this year undoubtedly has a funny but thought-provoking irony.Not long ago, the festival celebrations of the military regime of the fourth planet Mars just ended, followed by the game of the upper forces in the Republic of Seth on the seventh planet. The ceremony seemed to be just yesterday, and the γ planet at the end of July had silently ignited the flames of ambition and betrayal.

What happened on the three main human-inhabited planets in the Muse galaxy within a short period of one month cannot be said to be completely accidental. The debate continued for a long time, and some people insisted that the civil strife on planet γ this time was entirely due to the conspiracy of the Mars military regime. The Mars politicians headed by the Martin Consul took off their politicians' skin, and they were still militaristic in their bones. Aggression and expansion under the teaching.They were defeated in foreign wars, and the people fell into panic. In order to restore the dominant position of the entire Muse galaxy as a strong and forceful force, the upper echelon of Mars power and the military must restore the confidence of all the people.

Therefore, planet γ, which has no achievements in military and political affairs, naturally became the best point of conflict transfer.The chairman of the Free Cities Federation, Zina Joe, has been bedridden for a long time and is unable to handle political affairs. The loose city federation structure uses the alliance between the various city lords as a link. When the most critical link begins to loosen, no external force is needed. It began to crumble from within like a plate of loose sand.Aja Derich from Mars, a plump gray-haired beauty, took advantage of this, and by virtue of the secrets and power she had gained from her long-term relationship with Zener Joe as a lover and close friend, in less than a month During this period of time, they completely controlled the military and internal affairs of the Federation of Free Cities on Planet γ, including several "ambitious elements" who tried to replace Zener Joe during his illness, and also bowed their heads in front of laser guns and particle cannons.

When Aika Delic executed three high-level power figures in the Federation of Free Cities on the charge of rebels, others chose to remain silent for various reasons.They stood behind the dome fence of the execution ground, exchanging glances with each other, their faces pale, and their eyes reflected the doubts and fears in their hearts. It was a kind of fear of the unknown future and the uneasiness shrouded in the shadow of death that might fall at any time.

Aika Derich still maintains the usual elegance and gentleness, wearing a retro earth age mermaid dress, her round and white shoulders are completely exposed, her long gray hair is loosely coiled behind her head, and a long skirt inlaid with rubies The hairpin was inserted obliquely into the bun, a few strands of long hair were hanging down in front of the ears and forehead, and two ruby ​​pendants shone brightly on the side of the cheeks.

She gathered the shawl of the same color as the long skirt with both hands, and walked leisurely and slowly through the long corridor. She did not appear outside the execution ground, even though she was the one who ordered the execution of the three former city lords.

In the end, Aika Derich walked slowly, and would stop at every door she passed, just like she used to play games with Zener Joe when she was a girl, and there would always be one of them as a hiding place. The character of the protagonist, leaning quietly behind a certain door, and the other, will stop in front of each door, expecting to see the smiling face that makes him dream when he pushes the door open...

The door opened slowly following Aijia's movements, except for the darkness of the room and the surprised gaze of the maid behind her, there was nothing else.

Aika Derich bit her lips tightly, leaving a clear mark on her plump red lips.

Turning around abruptly, Aijia's gray eyes reflected the panicked face of the maid. The gray-haired Mrs. Derich was no longer the kind and gentle goddess in their hearts, she was the devil who imprisoned the city lord.

Aijia didn't notice the maid's eyes, she just lifted her skirt and ran quickly to the room at the other end of the corridor. The ruby ​​hairpin fell with her running, and there was a crisp sound, and her long hair fell loose. Pushing open the closed door, inside the heavy curtain, Zener Qiao fell asleep like death.

"Honey, forgive me..."

Aika Derich knelt down beside the bed, and tightly grasped Zener Joe's bony hand, which should not be Zener's hand. After Aika explained everything to Zener Joe, Zener Joe's hand The eyes have lost their luster...

The lifeless room did not add any vitality to the heart-piercing cries of Edgar Derich. On the contrary, the darkness and dullness began to envelope at an accelerated rate, just like the fate of this planet.

Novi stood in front of the window, his light-colored eyes reflected on the window glass, like the cold rough stone in the deepest part of the black sea of ​​the universe.

"Your Mightiness……"

"how?"

"I'm very sorry, but failed again."

"yes."

Novi didn't intend to blame his subordinates for their incompetence. Since ten days ago, they lost contact with the mother star fleet.It can't be that Soran Edrich unilaterally cut off the signal transmission. Even if the proud first prince of the empire doubted Novi's loyalty, after Novi made a clear promise, he would never use this way to humiliate a brave soldier of noble birth.

Then, the only possibility is that the photoelectric code of their communication with each other has been completely cracked!That's the only explanation.

Novi closed his eyes. Perhaps, he and His Royal Highness Solan Edrich were too confident. They were confident in the powerful force and the invincible record of the Golden Empire. Perhaps His Royal Highness only regarded this galaxy as a pastime, or maybe It was to kill the suspicion of His Majesty Emperor Haini III, but Novi, who was in the Muse galaxy, gradually developed a negative emotion that should not exist at all.

"Send the order down."

"Yes, sir!"

"Tomorrow, no, today, immediately, prepare to return to the Imperial Fleet!"

"Your Mightiness?"

"Do as I say!"

"Yes!"

The subordinate left the room, and Novi was still standing in front of the window, without making a sound for a long time.

Golden Empire Space Fleet

Soran Edrich has not "summoned" Shang Ping for three consecutive days. The black-haired boy was puzzled but relieved. Perhaps, this prince who is so beautiful that he is not like a real person is finally tired of playing a A game of affable princes?

Walking to the door of the "prison room", through the electronic scanning window on the door, you can clearly see the soldiers of the Golden Empire passing by from time to time in the corridor.This is another place that makes Shang Ping very puzzled. Since this is a cell where prisoners are held, why is there such a smart device on the door that can check everything outside the door?Shang Ping would occasionally think humorously, in this way, would the people locked up here have a chance to imagine that the people outside are poor creatures trapped and unable to escape?

"Maybe these aliens are just idle and bored?"

While fiddling with the communication device that Shang Ping had installed, Lochte made innocuous jokes.Perhaps because of Shang Ping's infection, Lochte is no longer as desperate as he was when he was first captured, and he no longer suspects that someone will blow his head off with a laser gun at any time. Think about it carefully, compared to him and Shang Ping Using two "toys" in the eyes of these people to destroy the humanoid mecha that made them proud, it is a miracle that the two of them can survive until now.

"How's it going?"

Shang Ping walked to Lochte's side, lowered his head, and the other party was still buried in the small communication device.

"There is no way at all!" Lochte spread his hands, and complained to the communication device in his palm that had been installed with energy but still could not work: "Shang Ping, as a genius, you shouldn't treat someone who has never Madoff Military Academy graduates with high grades in technician classes have too high expectations."

"Is this embarrassing for you?" Shang Ping held his chin with one hand, frowned deeply, then sighed, "Well, I made a mistake in judgment, but I don't ask much, just make it work."

"It's just... repayment?! This is not asking for much?! Why don't you try it yourself?!"

"Lochte, calm down, calm down."

"Fuck you! I don't understand which planetary language you're speaking!"

While the two were exchanging views in a very friendly manner, the door of the cell was suddenly opened from the outside. Shang Ping and Lochte froze at the same time, and looked out of the door. A person they didn't want to appear appeared in the out of sight.

Giovanna, the noble lord who has been refusing to leave under the pretext of recovering from his injuries, seems to have finally got the opportunity he wanted.

"Rochet..."

"kindness?"

"Tell me it's an illusion."

"I always thought you were a realist."

"No, I am more willing to be a visionary, especially when facing this noble lord."
