Chapter 905


"So, that guy will be freed soon."


"Where will he go after being freed? He"ll also be allowed to join the Star Alliance, or you"ll send him back?"


"As I told you before, we can"t send him back. Each portal to that s.p.a.ce takes a lot of energy, and we aren"t going to waste that on someone like him. He will just be granted citizens.h.i.+p in one of the worlds under the jurisdiction of the Star Alliance. He"ll have to find a way to survive on his own from that point on," Joana explained calmly.


"His abilities... Isn"t it too risky to leave him alone in the world?" Lucifer frowned. "He can be really troublesome. You have no idea. He can control s.p.a.ce and manipulate it. If you freed him, he"d come back to bite you in the a.s.s. Just don"t underestimate him."


"Oh, don"t worry about it. We aren"t underestimating anyone. We know exactly what he"s capable of. All I said was that he"d be freed. He"ll still be under restrictions. There will be some conditions applied to him as well."


A grin spread across the lips of the man.


"For example, he still has the rings of restrictions. And if he removes them without legal permission, he dies. Moreover, he will be needed to register his presence at the Star Alliance branch in whichever City he"s a.s.signed to stay in. He can"t leave that city for as long as he lives."


"So you bluffed him too." Lucifer"s fingers tapped on the table as he understood what these people did. "One must be really careful when dealing with the Star Alliance. You promised him freedom but the kind of freedom you gave him... I"m sure his definition of freedom was quite different."


"Hah, our definitions don"t need to match. He didn"t specify what kind of freedom. We gave him what we considered freedom. We always keep our words. Well, mostly anyway." Joana scratched his temple as he rolled his eyes, going on the technicalities.


"It doesn"t matter. As long as you don"t send him back to earth to create dangers for my family, I don"t care where he lives." He kept the three stones that he had received in his shadow realm. " I already got what I needed from him."


He was also slightly surprised that he had received three stones. This meant that the guy had one more than the two he took.

The gigantic s.h.i.+p raced through the infinite s.p.a.ce, occasionally even creating portals to pa.s.s through the Spatial barriers.


The World of Trials was an isolated world that didn"t have anyone living in it when it was discovered by the Star Alliance members.


The World was reported to the High Council, which decided to use it for the good. Before the world was discovered, there were no Trails for Promotions. Every promotion depended on the Higher Ups. However, it was only after the discovery of an empty world that the High Council came up with this idea.


They decided to make the Word into a Training Ground for their members at first before coming up with the idea of Trail for Promotions to generalize the entire process to save some time for them. The world was the perfect place for it, after all.


As the world was something that was going to be used for promotions to prestigious Captain Ranks, there were many safety precautions that were taken to make sure that no one could interfere in the trials when it was ongoing.


Multiple spatial barriers were cast around the world, which only got activated when the Trails had started. Once that happens, even the Captain Rank s.h.i.+ps couldn"t pa.s.s through the barriers. No one could get inside except Two Star Members of the Star Alliance.


Moreover, even before the Trials started, no s.h.i.+ps were allowed to land on the world. At best, the s.h.i.+ps could escort the partic.i.p.ants to the range of the Portal, from where the candidates were ported inside after making sure that their Card of Entrance was valid.


The s.h.i.+p of Joana traveled many light years before ultimately reaching the vicinity of the World of Trials, where it was commanded to stop.


By now, Joana had taken back the command of the s.h.i.+p after clearing up every misunderstanding with Lucifer.


Lucifer stood right behind Joana, gazing at the beautiful red planet. The world appeared to be slightly shorter than Earth, yet it seemed more special.


There was no sun or moon in the atmosphere. There weren"t any meteorites either. The entire s.p.a.ce was clear. Except for darkness, nothing could be seen. Despite having no sun or moon, the red world still seemed to have some left. It was unclear how.


Beep~


Joana"s system started beeping, which forced her to gaze at Joana. "Captain, we are getting a transmission from the world. Someone is asking to enter the s.h.i.+p."


"Let it through. I have a feeling who it will be. They"re coming to check the pa.s.s." Joana ex explained. "They"ll take Lucifer after making sure it isn"t fake."


"People forge even these? Isn"t that stupid?" Lucifer inquired. "The Star Alliance has the data of all its members. If the data was forged and someone successfully pa.s.sed the Trail during the time of Promotion, wouldn"t it be easy for that person to be caught and punished?"


"Oh, you really misunderstand the number of crazies in the Star Alliance. There are people who have been waiting for an opportunity to take part in the trial for over a century. The desperation can make them do some really stupid things."


"There have been some people who were caught lying to get an entrance. That"s why every entry is verified now."


"You still seem to remember a lot, Joana." An old-sounding voice came from the back as a figure appeared inside the s.h.i.+p.


Joana stood and turned around. "Commander Norn? You came here personally to check?"


"Yeah. All the members who were supposed to be here are already here, all fifty. Yet you arrive here. Of course, I"ll come personally to check. There have never been fifty-one partic.i.p.ants," the old man stated.


"So you think I brought a faker here," Joana chuckled. "Do you really think I can be this stupid?"


"Well, stupidity should be your middle name. I know how you cleared the Trial of yours. You were really lucky that despite all your stupid actions, you won." The old man rolled his eyes. "Anyway, who is the candidate this time?"


He noticed a lady sitting on the vice-captain seat. "You must be the one. Show me your card."


"I"m the one," Lucifer"s voice came, attracting the attention of the old man.
