A Little Child

After resting, Darma's body has now recovered. He was invited to tour by Captain Erdo. The mist on this planet is simply immeasurable. But as long as it is close to the city, the air is still safe to breathe even though it is thick fog. Nobody wore a mask at all.

Captain Erdo explained that in addition to getting a mission from the Commander, he also carried out an expedition to find energy sources. It was darker under the tower. But down there is a garden for growing plants that are oxygenated to meet respiratory needs on top of the tower. In the future, it is hoped that at least the air around the tower will be cleaner.

Every day, planes pass by. Either go and come back from an expedition, or go and come back from a mission. On each side of the tower is a tube that functions as an elevator. In the garden, they do not only plant plants to produce oxygen. But also food for survival. When it is harvested, a special plane for transporting food will transport all the crops to the top of the tower. There is one more thing. Namely water. They make machines to filter dirty water. The machine is in a lake some distance away. And the filtered water is flowed through a pipe and ends up in a reservoir that is stored in the tower. Inside the reservoir there are also pumps that pump water throughout the building on top of the tower. Also of course the fountain in the garden.

Darma was invited to climb into a small capsule that only two people could ride. The capsule flew up and showed all the towers that even though they were only dimly lit. The main tower is in the middle, and the rest surround the main tower which is connected by a bridge. Captain Erdo also explained that the top of this tower could fly and form a Freedom Alliance Twenty Division Aircraft Carrier.

After walking around, Darma met Ramna while she was busy reading books in a park.

"Where's Yora?" asked Darma while sitting down.

"I have no idea."

Darma looked around. How beautiful this place would be if there wasn't a thick fog.

"Hey, you're an alchemist," said Darma then.

"Then?" asked Ramna while still reading the book.

"Is there anyone who mastered alchemy apart from Ethias?"

"As far as I know, not many. But there are the strongest people who master this science. "

"Who is he?"

"Captain of the Red Alliance's First Division."

"Have you met him?"

"Not yet. But reportedly, he's very strong. He is the opponent of all the captains of the first division from either the five strongest alliances, or ours."

"Then Captain Ozaf is very strong?"

"Certainly."

Then, came a man whose whole body was made of iron. However, it is covered in some kind of synthetic leather but not completely. Like on the wrist. His face is like a human face but the front cheeks are flat. The eyeball was also made of iron and in the center it was like a light was on. Darma then remembered Guldi's words. He then guessed that this person was from the planet Tron. However, here is the synthetic leather.

"Oh, I have been transformed into such a shape like this," said the creature.

"What is your name?" asked Darma.

"I'm Rex," said Rex.

"I have seen your countrymen in Efora."

"They are taking their own paths."

"Is it true that your planet has no air?"

"Correct."

"Where is it located."

"In the star area of ​​Garda."

"How long if from here to there?"

"Only a few hours."

Darma is shocked. This is because he, Ramna, and Yora alone took tens of hours and were still in one star region.

"I forgot to tell you," Ramna laughed.

"What is that?" asked Darma who was still confused.

"Every spaceship carrier has a big engine. So it can be at the speed of light many times that of an ordinary airplane. "

"But commercial planes are about the same speed as Yora's."

"I mean specifically for military spacecraft. If you are taking a regular or commercial airplane and want to go to another star zone, you will need a lot of time too. And of course transits on various planets. "

Darma just laughed. He cringed at the fact how vast this galaxy was.

On a planet where part of the land is light blue in the star region of Cakra, Captain Raden is conducting a negotiation with the leader of the planet. When the magnificent double gates opened, Captain Raden stepped out. His posture was small, a cream white robe wrapped around his body like a pajama coat. His hair is neat straight, light blue. Her bangs were neat and didn't cover her face. Hisskin is pale white. His eyes are sharp with cat-like eyeballs. At first glance he looks like a spoiled child.

He walked slowly past the guards lined up in hideous armor. Planet Gorf, all of its inhabitants are tall and fat. Three times the average creature in this galaxy. He looks creepy like a crocodile. The skin is thick scaly. Big hands with sharp sharp black nails. Red eyes and very sharp teeth.

When he arrived in the presence of the Leader of the Gorf, he stopped then looked at the Leader who was sitting on his throne with a crown and gun with a giant hammer of thorns looking up. If an analogy is made, Captain Raden and the Leader of Gorf are like normal adults with a three-story house. It's simpler like a frog and a big male monkey.

"Who are you? How dare you come here?" asked the Leader.

"King Dermit, the leader of the Gorf. I came here to carry out a negotiation," replied Captain Raden calmly.

"Don't call me king. I am chosen by the people of Gorf."

"It is a call of honor from me."

"What negotiations are you talking about?"

"You could say this is an offer."

Dermit fell silent.

"We offer a technology to harness the resources of the planet. and the result, we can negotiate. I guarantee no one will be harmed."

"We are already using our natural resources in our own way."

This time it was Captain Raden who fell silent.

"I don't know what our ancestors said if we were working with a little child who might still drink milk with his mother hahahaha!" Dermit burst out laughing.

All the soldiers in this room also laughed.

"You can imagine when we reported the results of natural resources, but we accidentally saw her breastfeeding her mother, hahahaha," said a soldier with a laugh.

All the soldiers laughed even louder. Captain Raden only smiled slightly. But his smile made Dermit laugh even louder to the point where his tears trickled out.

"Breastfeeding with her mother bwahahahaha," Dermit said.

The soldiers all laughed louder than before.

Captain Raden took a deep breath. Then he quickly jumped and now he was level with Dermit's head. He unbuttoned his robe and suddenly his robe opened wide. Inside the robe, there was a weapon in the form of a short sword in the shape of a circle about five centimeters in diameter and a pointed tip. He drew it and slashed the sword towards Dermit. Sensing he was being attacked, Dermit blocked Captain Raden's slash with his hammer. But Captain Raden's slash was so strong that he was knocked backwards through the wall and tumbled all the way into the forest.

All the soldiers fell silent. They did not think that this dwarf creature could send Dermit so far that it made a hole in the wall. Captain Raden landed on the floor. He stood straight, his left hand he clenched towards the back of his back. His right hand held the sword which he straightened and pressed against his forehead.

"Anyone dare to mock me again?" asked Captain Raden.

"DAMN YOUUU!" shouted all the soldiers who immediately attacked Captain Raden simultaneously.
