Cosmic Professional Gladiator

Lunarstar sat in a dim hallway, all by himself.

He raised the wine glass in front of him and took a small sip. Wu Ming has become a cosmic legend.

I've always wanted to be friends with Wu Ming from the day he became an Origin lifeform, Lunarstar thought, his gaze fixed on the endless cosmos beyond the planet. I knew he was incredibly talented and impressive. Even though I was the heir to the throne, I never dared to underestimate him.

Even when I became the emperor, I never did anything to jeopardize my relationship with him. But who could have guessed that he would become corrupted? He went mad!

He contacted me directly and publicly executed my brother. Lunarstar poured himself another glass of wine. As the emperor, what was I supposed to do? Could I just ignore it after watching my brother be killed in front of me? And then be threatened with my own execution in public?
