Chapter 1231
Three days later, David approached the vicinity of Planet Royal in his Galaxy Warship.
As he looked at the giant planet glowing with a blue light, David could not help but lament about the magical universe.
Planet Royal was an enormous living planet in the Milky Way and was at the heart of the Milky Way.
If one looked at it from outside of the Milky Way or from the depths of the universe, one would see that the entire Milky Way was seemingly revolving around Planet Royal.
Planet Royal was located at the center of the Milky Way majestically and imposingly, like a king.
Such was Planet Royal, a planet everyone in the Milky Way yearned for.
According to legend, anyone born on Planet Royal would get the Milky Way’s blessing and luck.
Therefore, countless forces in the Milky Way would feel proud to have a small house on Planet Royal.
However, not many people among the millions of living planets and hundreds of thousands of big and small forces could achieve this.
This was because money could not buy something like this.
Planet Royal was controlled by the royal family of the Milky Way Empire, the Barlowe family.
If one wanted to obtain residency in Planet Royal, one had to be a force that had contributed significantly to the empire. That was the only way they would be assigned a residence.
One could only imagine how tight the competition was and what the chances of success was.
At the same time, Planet Royal was the safest planet in the Milky Way.
This was because the strongest person in the Milky Way, Emperor Nimbus, was residing there. He was a powerhouse at partial Eternal Realm.
Emperor Nimbus was only halfway to Eternal Realm.
Even though it was miles away and he might be stuck in that realm forever, Nimbus was still the person in the Milky Way with the most potential to break through to Eternal Realm.
One had to go through a lot of safety checks before one could enter Planet Royal.
First, they needed to land on one of the eight satellites protecting Planet Royal to be inspected.
After passing, the empire would send someone to receive the guests and proceed to the second inspection.
After passing the first two inspections, they could enter Planet Royal for the final inspection.
Once they passed all three inspections, they could move freely within Planet Royal’s public areas.
The ones with a residence could stay permanently, while the ones without could only stay up to one month at most.
When the time was up, they could be kicked out of Planet Royal.
Before David arrived at Planet Royal, he heard Mia explaining the situation on the planet.
Since they had Princess Astrid’s token, so they could go in without obstruction and would not be inspected.
Despite this, David followed the rules and landed on one of the eight satellites following the guidelines.
After the Galaxy Warship landed and the hatch was opened, a few staff of the Milky Way Empire came forward as David and Mia walked out of the hatch. The staff were here to inspect the Galaxy Warship.
“Where did you come from? What are you doing here? Are you here for the state banquet?” The staff at the front asked politely.
They could not afford to offend anyone who could travel in a Galaxy Warship.
Although they were the empire’s staff and had the empire’s backing, who could be sure if this young man before them had elders with important roles in the empire?
This young man might send them all to hell with just one word.
These people had been checking all warships and flying vessels entering Planet Royal daily, so they were pretty discerning.
They knew who they could and could not offend.
David and Mia did not look like they were easy to deal with.
Despite this, the staff still had to inspect them according to the standard of procedure.
Everyone had to be inspected, no matter who they were.
This was the empire’s rule.
Chapter 1232
No one and no forces would dare to go against it.
“Astrid invited us to head to Planet Royal,” David answered.
“Astrid? Her Royal Highness?” The staff widened their eyes and asked in surprise.
“That‘s right.”
“Do you have any proof?”
David took out a token with the word ‘Astrid‘ and tossed it toward the staff.
“This is the token Princess Astrid gave me back then. Is this enough proof?” David asked.
The leading staff took the token and looked at it carefully. After that, they were shocked.
This was indeed Princess Astrid‘s token and it was impossible to fake.
Also, no one in the Milky Way would dare to make a copy of Princess Astrid‘s token. The success rate aside, no one would dare to use it even if they managed to make a perfect copy.
This was because Princess Astrid had given out an order to notify her if anyone came forward with her token.
If Princess Astrid found out someone was faking her token, the person would lose their life.
“Of course! Sir, please wait. Her Royal Highness told us to notify her if anyone came forward with her token. If not, we can‘t afford the consequences.”
After the staff said that, they contacted their higher–up immediately.
David did not stop them.
‘I‘ll just let them do their job.
‘Since I‘m here, I have nothing to hide.‘
Plus, he needed to see Astrid and hand Fergus to her.
Astrid was eating with Empress Gamore in the Royal Palace on Planet Royal.
Ring!
The communication device rang suddenly, and Astrid immediately answered it.
Then, she heard a middle–aged man‘s voice.
“Greetings, Your Royal Highness.”
“Who are you? Do you need anything?” Astrid asked.
“Your Royal Highness, I am responsible for safety on Satellite 7. You said to notify you if the person with your token arrives,” the middle–aged man said respectfully.
Astrid stood up excitedly and asked, “Are you saying someone is here with my token?”
“Yes! A man and a woman came to Satellite 7 with your token. I immediately contacted you when I got the news, Your Royal Highness.”
“Tell them to come in at once. Skip the inspection. They are good friends of mine. Let them in and bring them to me,” Astrid said excitedly.
“Certainly. Please wait, Your Royal Highness. I will arrange it now.‘
The middle–aged man hung up after he said that.
Astrid was smiling to herself as she looked at the communication device.
“Astrid, is David here?” Gamora asked.
Astrid came back to her senses and answered, “Yes, Mother! David is here. I’ll go and welcome him now. You can take your time.”
After she said that, she was about to leave.
“Wait. You can go after you finish your food. It will take some time for David to reach Planet Royal,” Gamora stopped.
“Oh, Mother! I can’t eat now. You should continue eating. I’ll go
Astrid left in a hurry after she said that, leaving Empress Gamore alone in the dining room. After Gamora pondered for a while, she picked up her communication device.
A deep voice came from the device.
“Gammy, what’s wrong?”
Gamora was enraged.
“What’s wrong? Your daughter is about to be abducted! What else? Are you not going to do anything about it? I can’t stop it myself.” th
“Is that punk David here? Where is he? I’ll see him now to check if the Sangruil Sinners sent him. If this is the case, I’ll kill him on the spot. Even if it’s not, I want to see if he’s worthy of my daughter.”
“Hmph, I’d like to see how you’ll kill him if your daughter wants to protect him.” “Don’t worry. I’ll find a chance to meet him in private.”
Chapter 1233
Under Princess Astrid’s order, David was released. Then, he got into the Galaxy Warship and headed to Planet Royal following the relevant process. Soon, he slowly landed at Astrid’s residence.
When the Galaxy Warship stopped and the hatch opened, David saw an alluring smiling face as he led Mia out of the ship.
It was Princess Astrid.
Next to Astrid was a gorgeous middle–aged woman who looked just like her.
David figured that must be Astrid’s mother and the empress of the Milky Way Empire.
At this moment, Empress Gamora was also observing David.
“This kid looks alright. He looks pretty handsome and is quite strong.
‘At least he can save Astrid from a Celestial Ranker.
‘However, I have to wait for Nimbus to determine his identity.
‘I can’t spare him if he’s a Sangruil Sinner.
‘If he’s not…‘
Gamora looked at Astrid, who was beaming next to her, and sighed.
‘Fine! Fine! I’ll let them date.‘
Gamora thought to herself helplessly.
‘David is passable in terms of his appearance. He’s not inferior to my husband when he was young.
‘I just have to verify his identity.‘
“David, Mia! You’re finally here!” Astrid said happily.
“Sorry for making you wait, Your Royal Highness,” David said courteously. novelbin
“Mia greets you, Your Royal Highness, Your Majesty,” Mia bent down slightly and greeted -respectfully.
Even though this was the first time Mia was meeting Empress Gamora in person, she had seen Empress Gamora’s photos in other places.
Thus, she immediately recognized the beautiful middle–aged woman.
‘The empress! The wife of Emperor Nimbus, the strongest person in the Milky Way Empire!‘
Gamora had a very high status and was said to be very strong.
Gamora was one of the high priestesses in Lunar Palace, one of the two major palaces in the Milky Way.
Gamora was the idol of many young girls in the Milky Way.
All of them wanted to be like her.
She had an invincible husband at the top of the Milky Way who towered over the entire galaxy.
Mia never expected to one day have the chance to meet the empress in person.
Right now, she was very excited.
“David, Mia, you don‘t have to be so polite. This is my mother. Mother, this is David, whom I told you about. He saved me back then. Next to him is Dance Fairy Mia, one of the four fairies,” Astrid held Gamora‘s hand and introduced everyone.
“You‘re David, right? Hello. Welcome to Planet Royal, and thank you for saving Astrid,” Empress said politely to David.
“You‘re too kind, Your Majesty. It was just a little bit of effort. I believe anyone would do the same if they were me,” David said with a grin.
Gamora frowned at what he said.
‘This kid is speaking so bombastically.
‘Is he looking down on Celestial Rankers?
‘Plus, he‘s not very respectful toward me, the empress. It feels like I‘m his equal.
‘Who is he, and who am I?
‘Is David really not a Sangruil Sinner spy and he genuinely came back after exploring for decades, just like Astrid said?
‘If not, why would he not have any manners?‘
Gamora did not know that David was also at partial Eternal Realm and had the strongest combat power in the Milky Way, just like Emperor Nimbus.
Even if her husband Nimbus were here, David would not speak to him like he was inferior, let alone herself.
Chapter 1234
If Gamora were not Astrid’s mother, David would not want to talk to her.
He could act like this because of his ability.
However, Gamora did not say anything.
Her daughter was here, so Gamora would not embarrass her.
However, she became increasingly resentful of David in her heart.
Gamora could see how Astrid acted when she returned to Planet Royal, so she was pretty biased against David.
Even though she was grateful that David had saved Astrid, who knew if this was a trap?
“Mother, David, stop being so courteous to each other. Let’s talk after we get back.”
“Alright, let’s go,” Gamora said.
David and Mia headed to the courtyard where Princess Astrid stayed under the guidance of Astrid and Gamora.
On the way, Astrid smiled happily as she told David everything about Planet Royal.
Right now, she was delighted that she could be with David.
Of course, it would be better if they were exploring together and not on Planet Royal.
Gamora did not talk much during the journey.
Although she did not have an unpleasant expression, she was not smiling either.
At this moment, Mia was following them like a respectful maid.
When the three of them were together, they got along pretty well.
However, Empress Gamora was here, so Mia did not dare to act recklessly.
After all, their identities were miles apart.
“David, there is still some time until the state banquet, so I can bring you around Planet Royal. Even though Planet Royal is not as exciting and thrilling as your explorations, you can still visit many places since this is your first time here. You won’t be disappointed,” Astrid said while walking.
David wanted to decline, but he did not have the heart to upset her after seeing how excited she was.
However, he made up his mind secretly.
The moment the state banquet was over, he would leave Planet Royal at once and return to Earth.
That was his home, and a lot of people needed him to be there.
“Thank you, Your Royal Highness. I was stunned when I landed on Planet Royal. As expected, it’s the biggest, liveliest, and most majestic planet in the Milky Way. I feel like staying here and enjoying myself,” David lamented.
“If you like this planet, you can stay here forever. I heard the people born here and the ones who stayed here long–term will get the Milky Way’s blessing. Even if it’s just a rumor, many people believe it. Also, if you stay here, I can come and hang out with you all the time. It’ll be amazing!” Astrid suggested.
“Um… It’s fine. Thank you for your kind intention, Your Royal Highness. I can’t do that now because I still need to take care of many things out there. I’ll think about it if I have a chance in the future,” David rejected quickly.
That would be the most miserable ending.
He had almost dug a trap and jumped into it himself.
“I see. Well… You must come and stay for a while after finishing your work. I promise you’ll fall in love with this place.” novelbin
“I will!”
Even if David said this, he knew it was impossible at the bottom of his heart.
No matter how great Planet Royal was, he would not stay here.
As the saying went, ‘the smoke of a man’s own house is better than the fire of another.‘
David would only feel at home on Earth.
Astrid was the only one who spoke the entire way.
David would occasionally reply.
Meanwhile, Gamora did not say anything as she listened to the two of them.
She thought, ‘David is pretty good. He’s so good at playing hard to get.
‘It seems that he’s a professional.
‘People like this will be very attractive to inexperienced girls like Astrid.‘
However, the more he did this, the more Gamora felt that something was wrong with him.
Chapter 1235
Astrid was still talking when David remembered he had forgotten something
‘Fergus is still inside the Galaxy Warship!‘
This was why he came to Planet Royal and did his best to help the empire. It was so that the empire would not start a war with the Sangruil Sinners, causing the people to suffer.
Therefore, David asked, “Your Majesty, how is the situation between the empire and the Sangruil Sinners?”
‘Hmm?‘ Gamora was taken aback.
She did not know why David would suddenly mention the Sangruil Sinners.
However, she answered, “The Sangruil Sinners are just clowns. Of course, they can’t pose a threat to the empire. It‘s just that the emperor is very busy, so they can run rampant for now. Soon, we will get rid of all of them.”
Of course, Gamora would not tell the truth.
The empire was very troubled after finding out the Sangruil Sinners were working with the Nine– Headed Serpent Clan.
Most importantly, Moe had injured the emperor.
Even if Moe‘s injuries had suffered worse injuries, this would still be hard for the people to accept.
Who was the emperor? He was the strongest person in the Milky Way, and now he was injured by someone else.
If word got out, the entire Milky Way would be in chaos.
“That‘s good. I ran into the new head of the Callisto family, Fergus, while I was on the way. He had become fully dependent on the4 Sangruil Sinners and had fused with the genes from the Nine–Headed Serpent Clan, causing his strength to skyrocket. However, I‘ve subdued him, and he‘s in the Galaxy Warship. Your Majesty, you can get someone to bring him away. I hope this will help you with your research into the Sangruil Sinners,” David said.
“Oh? The Callisto family has become dependent on the Sangruil Sinners? Is this true?”
Gamora was interested now.
The Callisto family was one of the eight prominent families in the Milky Way, and they were not weak.
The empire had also obtained information about forces suspected to have relied on the . Sangruil Sinners.
However, these were just suspicions, and they were not confirmed.
Moreover, the Callisto family was not on the list of suspected forces. This could only mean that the Callisto family was good at covering their footsteps.
Moreover, the emperor was resting during this period, and it was inconvenient for him to act.
That was why the empire did not do anything.
If it was confirmed that the Callisto family had relied on the Sangruil Sinners, the empire could exert pressure on them.
The empire could punish the Callisto family to serve as a warning to others.
If David’s information were legitimate, it would be hugely beneficial to the empire.
“I am unaware if the rest of the Callisto family is working with the Sangruil Sinners, but Fergus, the head of the family, has indeed become a member of the Sangruil Sinners. You can go ask him anything you want to know,” David answered.
“Good! David, if this is true, you will have made a huge contribution,” Gamora said earnestly.
David smiled but did not say anything.
He did not care about credit.
He just did not want to see a war happening in the Milky Way.
One side would be humans, while one side would be half–human, half–beats monsters colluding with foreign races. novelbin
Naturally, David would side with the empire.
After Gamora said that, she asked her people to bring Fergus out.
David also notified Balu to bring Fergus out to hand him to the empire.
Soon, the four of them reached Princess Astrid’s courtyard in the Royal Palace.
Someone had prepared a table of sumptuous food and drinks.
After David and the others arrived, they sat down, and the welcoming banquet officially began.
Astrid was happy throughout the meal.
She had been excited ever since she heard about David arriving on Planet Royal.
At night, David was arranged to stay in another courtyard.
He was a man, so he could not stay in Princess Astrid’s courtyard.
Even though Astrid wanted him to stay, this would not be the case since Empress Gamora was around.
At this moment, David was in the courtyard chatting and drinking tea with Mia. At the same time, they enjoyed Planet Royal’s night sky.
Chapter 1236
As expected of Planet Royal, even its night sky looked dreamy.
Suddenly, David‘s mind power sensed an energy that was as dazzling as the sun approaching him.
David smiled and said, “Since Your Majesty is here, why don‘t you show yourself?”
“Not bad! David, you found me. I guess Gammy was right. You are not indeed not a simpleton,” a deep and resounding voice penetrated David and Mia‘s ears.
Unbeknownst to them, a middle–aged man was sitting opposite David.
Mia felt her brain haywire when she saw the middle–aged man who appeared out of nowhere.
‘What did David call him?
‘His Majesty?
‘His Majesty!
“His Majesty Emperor Nimbus of the Milky Way Empire? The strongest person in the Milky Way?
‘Such a legendary figure is in front of me right now?‘
Mia felt as if she was about to pass out.
Back then, looking at someone like Emperor Nimbus would burn one‘s eyes.
He was like the sun, shining down on the Milky Way and subduing all the top forces.
“Mia greets you, Your Majesty!” Mia returned to her senses and knelt on the ground, greeting respectfully.
“That‘s enough. You may rise. His Majesty is not here tonight, only Astrid‘s father, Nimbus. I am here as Astrid‘s father,” Nimbus shook his hand and said.
“Thank you, Your Majesty,” Mia stood up and got behind David.
She did not dare to continue sitting.
How many people in the Milky Way dared to sit next to Emperor Nimbus?
Mia peered at David.
She saw that he had no intention of getting up. He sat there quietly and looked at the strongest man in the Milky Way with a smile. ‘That‘s Emperor Nimbus!‘
Mia was confused.
She did not know if David had forgotten his manners after leaving the Royal Region for too long or if there was another reason for his behavior.
How could he be so calm facing the emperor?
After staying with him for so long, Mia did not think David was nuts.
‘He’s pretty normal, right?
‘Why does he seem so insane now?
‘Is the emperor not still the emperor even if he says he’s here as Astrid’s father?
‘Is David taking the emperor seriously?‘ novelbin
Mia wanted to remind David of this, but she thought it would be inappropriate for her to speak up.
‘What should I do?‘ Mia was anxious.
They would be doomed if David offended the emperor and pissed him off.
Mia had no idea that David had reached partial Eternal Realm and was on the same level as Emperor Nimbus.
Of course, David would not be humble if he faced someone on the same level as him.
Also, David’s strength would rise again soon. When that happened, the emperor might have to bow whenever he met David.
The difference between partial Eternal Realm and Eternal Realm was more significant than the differences between the realms before it.
If David managed to break through, he would be immortal.
Even Emperor Nimbus would have to call someone at Eternal Realm master.
This was a world where strength was of the utmost importance.
Mia knew David was mysterious, but even so, was he more powerful than the emperor?
Of course, she was not the only one who felt this way.
Everyone who knew David would not think he was on the same level as the emperor.
Chapter 1237
“David, you’re pretty good. You’re the only one among the youngsters in the Milky Way to be so relaxed and calm when meeting me,” Nimbus said.
Nimbus lamented internally when he saw David grinning at him.
Other factors aside, David would have a bright future based on how he was neither obsequious nor supercilious when facing Nimbus.
There were not a lot of people who would smile like this when they were sitting opposite Nimbus in the Milky Way. Even amongst the elders, no one, including the grandmasters from major forces, would dare to do this.
“Mr. Barlowe, you’re too kind. Didn’t you say His Majesty is not here, and you are only here as Astrid’s father? Since I am friends with Astrid, I don’t have to fear you, right, Mr. Barlowe?” David said with a smile.
His emotions did not change because of what Nimbus said.
Moreover, David hid his true strength using the system.
Nimbus would not have said this if he knew David’s true strength.
David would never divulge all his trade secrets and display his trump cards too early.
Behind David, Mia’s vision turned black when she heard what he said.
If that was the case, David had indeed taken what the emperor said seriously.
‘His Majesty was only being polite, but why is David so oblivious?novelbin
‘I think he has forgotten basic etiquette after exploring for too long.‘
At this moment, Mia felt her future turning dark.
However, since she decided to follow David, she would not leave because of this.
Mia decided to talk to David about this after the emperor left so that he would no longer make stupid mistakes like this.
“Splendid! Haha! Uncle Barlowe? David, you surprised me. You have a fearless heart at such a young age, so no wonder you have this level of strength right now. Furthermore, you will have unlimited achievements in the future!”
Nimbus guffawed.
He had been observing David since he got here and was trying to guess who David was.
However, Nimbus had not found anything wrong with David until now.
If David were a Sangruil Sinner spy, he would not be so unmoved when he met Nimbus. Even the grandmasters would not have such strong hearts, let alone a youngster like David. “Mr. Barlowe, stop praising me. You can’t praise me too much, or I’ll be full of myself. You should have a reason for coming here tonight, right?” David asked the question he had in his heart.
He knew Nimbus did not want Astrid to know about his visit, which was why he came here at this time.
He was trying to avoid Princess Astrid.
Mia did not want to stay here anymore. She would feel like an arrow had shot her whenever David said something. She was almost struggling to breath.
‘David! The person in front of you is the emperor of the Milky Way Empire! ‘Can‘t you be humbler and speak nicely?
Aside from Empress Gamora and Princess Astrid, the only person in the Milky Way who dares to talk to Nimbus in that tone is Wilfred, who is hiding in the dark.
‘Aside from those three, I don‘t think there is a fourth person who dares to act this way.
Now, David is the fourth individual. Of course, those Sangruil Sinners are an exception.‘
Nimbus was shocked.
He did not expect David to talk to him in that tone.
Chapter 1238
‘The ignorant are fearless indeed!‘ However, since he was the emperor of the Milky Way Empire, Nimbus would not do anything to David over this trivial matter. He was here today to confirm David‘s identity.
Even though Nimbus could not sense anything wrong with David, this did not mean David was off the hook
He still needed to double–confirm this.
“David, I did indeed come here for a reason.”
“Please tell me, Mr. Barlowe. I will do my best as long as it‘s within my power.”
“I have a few questions for you, and I hope you can be honest with me.”
After Nimbus said that, his face turned solemn before David could answer him. Then, he looked at David seriously and asked, “David, who are you?”
David was confused by the question.
“Why are you asking that, Mr. Barlowe?”
Mia‘s soul left her body after Nimbus’ expression changed.
Her hands and feet started shaking.
She thought, ‘Oh no! Oh no! David has enraged His Majesty. What should I do? What should I do? Right, Princess Astrid! Only she can save David now.
“But how can I notify Princess Astrid?‘
“David, Astrid was at an impasse when she was in danger. When I went to save her, King Moe of Sangruil stopped me, and there was a split second that I thought Astrid would not make it. Why did you show up at the scene so coincidentally? You saved her so easily and got on her good side. She‘s obsessed with you now. Don‘t you think this is too much of a coincidence?” Nimbus asked, staring straight at David.
Nimbus thought David would show a big reaction, regardless of whether he was problematic or not.
However, he was only slightly shocked before smiling helplessly. Then, he answered, “Mr. Barlowe, do you think I saved Princess Astrid because I had an ulterior motive?”
“Don‘t you? If not, how can you explain the coincidence?”
“How can I explain this coincidence to you regardless? If I planned to get close to Her Royal Highness using this tactic, wouldn‘t that make me Sangruil Sinner?” “We suspect you‘re a Sangruil Sinner spy who was sent to infiltrate the empire. Since you have no chance of taking action anywhere else, you decided to take action against Astrid.” “Mr. Barlowe, your suspicion is baseless. I just sent you that monster Fergus who has relied on the Sangruil Sinners and fused with the Nine–Headed Serpent Clan‘s genes. Why am I
suddenly a Sangruil Sinner myself?” David said bitterly.
He never expected to be doubted like that.
However, he figured it made sense for Nimbus to doubt him after thinking about it.
The main reason was that David had showed up just in time.
The Sangruil Sinners had not shown themselves in centuries, yet they made a comeback the moment David arrived in the Royal Region. novelbin
Anyone would be suspicious.
“That’s the reason we’re a little unsure. The empire has examined Fergus, and he has perfectly fused with the Nine–Headed Serpent Clan’s genes. According to what we know, this rarely happens to the Sangruil Sinners, which means he had a bright future. Moreover, the Callisto family hid this so well that the empire didn’t suspect them. The empire has now eliminated them, all thanks to you. If you used the Callisto family to gain our trust, then I imagine that this price is much too high for the Sangruil Sinners,” Nimbus said in confusion.
Not long ago, Azure Dragon and White Tiger Internal Halls had eliminated the Callisto family.
They had indeed sided with the Sangruil Sinners.
When the halls were raiding the Callisto family, they found many Sangruil Sinner core seniors hiding within the Callisto family.
This was definitely a heavy blow to the Sangruil Sinners.
After learning about the Callisto family, Nimbus knew the chances of David being a Sangruil Sinner were close to zero.
However, he still asked this question to see how David would answer.
Chapter 1239
“Mr. Barlowe. I genuinely can‘t explain this to you. I ran into someone chasing after the Dance Fairy when I arrived at the Royal Region, and shortly after, I ran into someone chasing after Princess Astrid. I feel helpless as well. I would feel guilty if I didn‘t save them, but if I save them, I would give myself a lot of unnecessary trouble. What do you think I should have done? Who can I vent to?” David said helplessly.
“David, I‘m sorry for causing trouble to you,” Mia said apologetically behind David.
“It‘s fine. Mia, you don‘t have to apologize. Even though I initially did not want to be troubled, you helped me a lot afterward. You made many things easy for me when I arrived at the Royal Region. If not, I wouldn‘t have kept you around,” David comforted.
“David, even if I don‘t think you‘re a Sangruil Sinner, I have no choice but to be suspicious because this is related to Astrid. That‘s why I have to be vigilant about this. Tell me about your experience in detail. You should start from the moment you started to form memories until the present to prove your innocence.” David found this difficult.
‘How should I tell him my experience? I can‘t! ‘I can‘t tell him the truth.
‘I am from an indigenous living planet, and I can‘t tell him how I got to this stage.
‘Moreover, it‘s unrealistic for me to make something up. Nimbus is not like Astrid.‘
If David made something up, it would be proven to be fake very soon. If so, he would be at a disadvantage.
Even though David was not scared of Nimbus, it would be better to avoid any potential trouble. He did not want to be stuck in a deadlock with the empire.
After all, David would side with the empire if he had to choose between the empire and those half– human, half–beast Sangruil Sinners.
Nimbus wanted to find out David‘s background by asking this. Perhaps he had already looked into David. Since David was not from the Royal Region but an indigenous living planet, they would not find anything even if he suddenly appeared in the Royal Region. 1 This was why Nimbus asked him this.
David racked his brain, yet he could not find a suitable explanation. Therefore, he could only reject the request, “I‘m sorry, Mr. Barlowe. Everyone has secrets, and I believe you have them as well. Plus, my experience is a little special, so I can‘t tell you about it. Please stop asking me to share this.”
“How can I believe you then? Or rather, how can you prove your innocence?” Nimbus asked.
“I have already reached this stage, so what can I do if you still don‘t believe me? Moreover, I can‘t prove anything,” David spread his hands and said begrudgingly.
“David, I‘m not satisfied with your answer,” Nimbus said, his face turning dark.
“Since you‘re not satisfied, should I leave the Royal Region? I won‘t participate in the battle between you and the Sangruil Sinners. I also promise never to return to the Royal Region to see Princess Astrid. We will never interfere with each other‘s lives ever again.”
“Do you think I will let you leave now that you‘re here and refuse to explain yourself?”
“Mr. Barlowe, please stop forcing me. I have contributed to the empire by bringing Fergus to Planet Royal for you, right? Are you now preventing me from leaving? How is that reasonable?” David said sarcastically.
The two were talking to each other liárshly now. On one side, Mia was beyond nervous. She was worried that Nimbus would kill David if he were not happy.
“David, I‘m not forcing you. The Sangruil Sinners are bearing down on us menacingly after working with the Nine–Headed Serpent Clans from the Beast Galaxy. If we‘re not careful, everyone in the Milky Way will be affected, and there will be unimaginable casualties. You must know that the Nine–Headed Serpent Clan loves to eat humans, as this can help them grow quickly. If the Sangruil Sinners gain the right to rule the Milky Way, humans will become the Nine–Headed Serpent Clan‘s food,” Nimbus explained out of the blue.
He did not know why he did this. novelbin
Logically, Nimbus should make that scoundrel David‘s life difficult since David dared to speak to him that way.
However, Nimbus‘ intuition told him it would be best not to start a conflict with David.
Chapter 1240
Nimbus felt that this was because of Astrid.
No matter what, David had saved Astrid before. If he did something to David, it would be hard to explain to Astrid.
Of course, the most important thing was that Nimbus was very suspicious of David being a Sangruil Sinner spy.
If David showed the tiniest sign of being a Sangruil Sinner, Emperor Nimbus of the Milky Way Empire would not spare him.
Nimbus could still see the bigger picture.
“Mr. Barlowe, I understand. Of course, I’m with you because I’m a human. I will not say no if you need my help, but I genuinely can’t explain my background,” David said with a bitter grin. “David, are you sure you want to continue being stubborn? Are you sure you don’t want to tell me? You will make things hard for me if you do this.”
Nimbus did not expect David to be so stubborn even when he had said this.
He was the emperor of the Milky Way Empire.
When had he ever exchanged so many words with a kid?
Nimbus had tried his best to control himself today. novelbin
“Alright, Mr. Barlowe. Even if I tell you, you won’t believe me, so I better leave. Don’t worry, I won’t say anything after I leave the Royal Region. I hope you can eliminate the Sangruil Sinners soon to prove
my innocence.”
After David said that, he turned to say to Mia, “Let’s
Then, he got up to leave.
The moment he stepped forward, he felt a terrifying energy overwhelming him. David quickly pulled Mia behind him to block this energy from hurting Mia.
If not, the energy just now would cause Mia to pass out.
This was not Nimbus‘ full strength.
If he showed his strength as someone at partial Eternal Realm, all of Planet Royal would shake. Even so, Mia still felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave.
“David, you’re too foolish. I am the emperor of the Milky Way Empire, and you’re the first youngster who dares to speak to me this way. Don’t even think about leaving Planet Royal if you don’t tell me your background for me to verify your identity. It’s fine if you don’t want to tell me. I will lock you in the empire’s prison until the end of the war between the empire and the Sangruil Sinners. You can choose for yourself.”
Nimbus was still sitting in the same place, but his energy was different.
This was how an emperor should be.
Just now, he was a father go, Mia.”
Even if Nimbus had not completely recovered from his injuries until now, it would be enough for him just to show David his energy. However, the sight of David pleading, which Nimbus expected to see, never appeared. David stood before Mia. The smile on his face gone. “Nimbus, i respected you and called
you Mr. Barlowe because you‘re Astrid‘s father. Now you‘re trying to take advantage of your seniority? You don‘t want me to leave, huh? I‘d like to see if you can stop me!”
