Planet Governor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no reason—and could never—become arrogant before Venicca, simply due to gaining the favor of Miss Athena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aaron Ferguson.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your humility truly matches the achievements and glory you possess today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Venicca stood in the sky before the gates of the Celestial Castle, her face so beautiful as to cause one to lose focus, showing a faint smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I dare not, I dare not!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron remained ever respectful in his bearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let me, Venicca Riel, conduct your formal investiture!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Venicca smiled, waved her hand, and, from the void, grasped a crown adorned with white crystal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wear this crown, and you shall no longer be a mere resident; you will possess power on this planet second only to mine!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Venicca’s voice became more resonant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having spoken,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She danced gracefully through the air, arriving before Aaron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron dropped to one knee, bowed his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Venicca solemnly held the crown in both hands and placed it upon him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment the crown descended, Aaron’s body could not help but tremble slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aaron, my Vice Governor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why are your eyes turning red?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Venicca noticed his response, and asked gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I, I...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was only thinking of the benefactor who changed the course of my entire life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron, always honest, spoke his true thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As his voice faded,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The streets of Heaven City were stilled for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron’s tale had long spread throughout Heaven Star, even to the Pegasus Star Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even in the Federation Central Star Realm, many people spoke eagerly of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone knew—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron’s fate was changed by ’Yu Jin’.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one knew who Yu Jin really was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the Federation moved forward, Miss Athena stirred immense turmoil across every star realm under Federation rule, in search of that man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah, Aaron Ferguson.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If the Lord were to know how deeply you miss and feel gratitude, surely he would be greatly comforted.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The smile on Venicca’s face grew gentler.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If one looked closely, they’d see that when she spoke those words ’the Lord’, her eyes revealed genuine devotion and respect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron, still unsettled and emotional, clearly missed this subtlety.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a deep breath, wearing the crown, and slowly stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, Lady Venicca.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"From this day forth, I will give all my effort, never betraying the role of Vice Governor, fighting for the rights and welfare of all Heaven Star residents!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron’s words rang firm, echoing through all Heaven City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The people filled every street and alley, calling his name together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The feverish cries sustained endlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buzz—!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A tremendous wave surged abruptly above Heaven City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rowdy city suddenly became silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A decree from the Central Federation...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Venicca’s brows, far and graceful as distant hills, slightly furrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Central Federation decree?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The newly promoted Aaron, too, looked utterly bewildered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miss Athena wants to promote him again?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s unlikely, he had just assumed office...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buzz—!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Above Heaven City,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surging energy enveloped the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A vast light screen suddenly appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the screen, the face of a golden-eyed, golden-haired woman emerged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Athena!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron recognized her in an instant and called out softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Athena!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The whole of Heaven City followed with cries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Venicca, always unwaveringly loyal to the Federation, merely bowed her head slightly in respect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aaron!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Athena’s gaze swept the city, quickly locking onto Aaron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Within one day, arrive at Athena Planet!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Federation has granted you the highest interstellar shuttle access!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those were her only words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The light screen vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both Aaron and the citizens wore expressions of confusion and daze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s happened?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless people glanced at one another, unable to fathom the sudden ’Central Federation decree’.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Venicca’s eyes narrowed slightly, as if pondering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked at Aaron and spoke softly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Perhaps...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Athena has once again found traces of Lord Yu Jin...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice was gentle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And somehow,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron sensed that in her tone, there was a hint of anticipation and excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lady Venicca really wishes to meet Lord Yu Jin?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maybe it’s just pure curiosity...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron did not dwell on it, bidding farewell and turning to board the spaceship headed to Heaven Star’s orbital space station.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Waited an interstellar shuttle, symbolizing the highest technology of the Ophelia Federation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ordinary folk had no privilege to use it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Aaron, now Vice Planet Governor, received usage rights only by Athena’s approval.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Celestial Castle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Venicca watched the ship’s silhouette fade into the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In her eyes, emotions flickered—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A longing, a yearning, and a sense of loss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My Lord...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Have you forgotten Venicca and Heaven Star...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you persistently refuse to descend here...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Venicca’s whisper was heard by none.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Aaron had really caught the term ’My Lord’, he’d surely be shocked speechless...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One day later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ophelia Star Realm, Athena Star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron, aboard the interstellar shuttle, crossed unfathomable distances and finally arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s going on?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are we going to war?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the interstellar shuttle, not yet docked, Aaron watched the swarming warships and spaceships gathering above the planet, his mind going blank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Athena Planet—he’d been here before—when logging onto the Alpha Star server.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back then, Athena Star never had such enormous military and warship deployment!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron looked through the porthole into the starry expanse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Federal warships beyond count, dense and stretching beyond sight!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What on earth is happening?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Athena summoned me—wasn’t it to locate Lord Yu Jin?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron, filled with countless thoughts, finally disembarked and entered the space elevator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh—!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The space elevator, tens of thousands of meters high, reached the planet’s surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron finally trod upon the land of Athena Planet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scene before him was filled with human figures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At a glance, there were at least a million people—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All soldiers, to be precise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They wore armor and carried weapons, their expressions solemn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron, still bewildered, was recalled to reality by a distant greeting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A young man with blue hair strode up to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stunned?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blue-haired youth was none other than Don Flack, the former captain of the Blue Silver Squad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In recent times, as Athena logged onto various servers to search for Yu Jin, she brought these two along each time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, the once unfamiliar pair had grown close, now teasing each other as good friends.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You came too?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh wait, of course you would.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are we doing here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With so many spaceships, warships, and troops...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron’s mind still vacant, his speech stuttering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Smack—!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don Flack stepped up and slapped Aaron’s shoulder hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What for?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Athena called you and me—not for anything but to find that man.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She certainly wouldn’t merely find us pleasing to the eye, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don Flack cracked a joke completely lacking in chill, and led Aaron onto a spaceship docked at the planet’s surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rumble—!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ships lifted one after another, soaring skyward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The warships in orbit roared their engines, assembling into formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh whoosh—!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside, Aaron gazed through the porthole at the passing starry vista, still flustered and lost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where are we really headed?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aaron couldn’t help but press Don Flack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don turned, looked deeply at Aaron, and murmured two words:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Low
