Are you saying the princess is currently practicing martial arts?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was an unbelievable story.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the Sun nodded as if it were the most natural thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『Yes. Parina is constantly growing stronger, even at this very moment. Unfortunately, forming a pact through marriage will be difficult.』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sun spoke with a tone suggesting they should consider another way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Yeongwoo couldn’t accept that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only was the marriage with Parina recorded in Records of the future, but according to Earth, the only way to form a pact at present was through marriage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why not just tell your daughter to stop training already? The planetary system is on the brink of orbital collapse—what’s with the seclusion training?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Yeongwoo said this, the Sun shook as if exasperated and looked up at the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『Parina listens to no one. Even if she comes out of her training voluntarily, she wouldn’t agree to marriage with…』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sun trailed off and quietly scanned Yeongwoo from head to toe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Parina, the Princess of the Sun who reveres martial strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had dedicated nearly every moment of her life to martial arts training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only would she have no intention of marrying, but even if she did, she wouldn’t choose someone weaker than herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What kind of look is that? Are you saying I’m too weak to marry a princess who reveres martial strength?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『…….』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sun answered only with silence, and Yeongwoo’s jaw dropped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you serious? The planets have finally united to overcome their innate limitations, and we’re giving up because you can’t convince your daughter?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『I’m not saying we’re giving up…』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then what do you call it when marriage is the only way to form the pact and we’re not doing it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Planetary ships were said to be rare in the universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So it was impossible that the birth of such a planetary vessel hadn’t been noticed throughout the universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which meant many beings out there were already watching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them were bound to be those hostile to planetary ships.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So now that they’d transitioned into a planetary ship, the most urgent priority was to gain mobility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bluntly put, if warships showed up outside their orbit and started shelling, they had no way to stop them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m not planning to force someone into marriage either. But can’t we at least ask her?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeongwoo pleaded, and the Sun finally closed its eyes tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『Fine. Let’s see if she can at least pause her training.』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, the Sun waved a hand lightly through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A rift in space, about four hand spans wide, opened in the air, and from within emerged a glowing, flaming sigil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…What’s that?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeongwoo asked, wide-eyed. Earth answered in a low voice instead of the Sun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『That’s Princess Parina’s sigil.』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Parina’s sigil?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『Yes. To put it simply…』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earth mimed knocking on a door with the back of its hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『This is the Sun knocking on his daughter’s door. In this case, her training chamber.』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, this was the first attempt in 3,000 years for the Sun to communicate with his daughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rift in space the Sun had opened was a link to Parina’s training ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So that’s… part of the Sun?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one knew exactly where Parina was training, but the most likely answer was somewhere inside the Sun itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like Earth’s command center was hidden deep inside the planet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that realization, Yeongwoo quickly pulled out the coordinate locator from his pocket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Coordinate Locator」 - Artifact tool\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【It shows the coordinates of visible points.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a square metallic object small enough to be held in one hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earth tilted its head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『Why?』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I want to check if I can read the coordinates of that space.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the sigil summoned within that rift really marked a point inside the Sun, maybe the tracker could detect its coordinates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was purely a hypothesis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there was some circumstantial evidence to support trying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Namely—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘President Lemu gave me the Sun’s coordinates. But if those aren’t for summoning the Sun or destroying it, then…’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be that they were coordinates to summon Princess Parina?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yeongwoo activated the tracker, a hologram flashed above the rift in space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gasp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he suspected, the coordinates exposed through the rift were visible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the coordinates revealed by the tracker for the princess’s training ground were—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flaaash!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>〔l||-Moro-001-483-0548-20〕\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘…What?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The familiar pattern of numbers made Yeongwoo unconsciously hold his breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Shit. That lunatic Lemu.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The strange coordinates Lemu had once sent in a flower wreath…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were none other than the location of Princess Parina’s training chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lemu had essentially told Yeongwoo in advance that he would need to fire on the princess’s training ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in the meantime…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Translator - Night]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Proofreader - Gun]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『Ri… Rina?』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moro cautiously spoke toward her daughter’s sigil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As expected, there was no response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this, the Sun glanced at Yeongwoo and knocked with a different line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『Our star system… is in danger!』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Parina’s sigil, which had been completely inactive until then, flared up violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fwoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『Danger? A danger great enough to interrupt my training?』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From her choice of words alone, Parina was clearly no ordinary person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sun then leaned her upper body closer toward the sigil, wearing an unusually servile expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『You’re needed now more than ever in our star system. As a princess, you must come forth.』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『For a threat that dire, Mother’s demeanor seems unchanged.』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, the flames of Parina’s sigil began to dim once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『I believe I made myself clear. ‘Seclusion.’ Thoughtless disruptions like this are an insult to me.』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, Parina’s sigil started to fade rapidly on its own, without Moro’s permission to close the link.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘This is troublesome. She won’t even listen to her own mother, the Sun?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that was precisely why Lemu had passed along this coordinate, wasn’t it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Can I input the coordinates myself?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeongwoo asked in a low voice, placing a hand on Earth’s shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earth’s eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『W-why?』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So it is possible. Open the input panel now. You can’t enter these coordinates, that’s why.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『…!』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earth instinctively gaped in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because right now, Yeongwoo had only one coordinate in his possession.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『Y-you’re not serious. You’re not…?』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Or are you gonna be a cripple stuck in one place for the rest of your life? That it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Yeongwoo threw the question back at Earth, the planet said nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, to dare inflict physical damage on the Sun’s core… was sheer madness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beyond insubordination—an act that violated every ethical standard of the planetary order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『You can’t handle this.』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I can. That’s why I’m the one firing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With those words, Yeongwoo raised his hands as if typing on a keyboard, prompting Earth to let out a deep sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『Crazy bastard.』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Earth transmitted the coordinate input field for the \"Planet Hunter\" to Yeongwoo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fwoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『You don’t input coordinates like that.』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Earth said, what appeared before Yeongwoo wasn’t a traditional keyboard of characters—but a massive blank space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in that void, the coordinate Yeongwoo had been thinking of was already written.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>〔l||-Moro-001-483-0548-20〕\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘What the—? It reads thoughts directly?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yeongwoo silently acknowledged the coordinates, unfamiliar symbols began to writhe beneath the blank space, as if alive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘…?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Yeongwoo couldn’t visually comprehend the strange script, its meaning was crystal clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘F…fire. Confirm.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he mentally read the meaning of the symbols, the “blank” space vanished in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, Earth’s eyes flew wide open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He realized Jeong Yeongwoo-07 had truly input the Sun’s coordinates into the Planet Hunter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this fact—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『Huh?』\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>『What?
