Star Year 23, June 4th…

"Tarius, Fariz, can you hear me?!" An adult man asked in a worried voice.

He had short dark green hair and a pair of silver colour eyes. Above his lips was covered in a thin moustache. A military attire in mixed black and white colour was worn on his tall and lean body at 1.88 metres height. His head was covered by a military black hat.

"Captain, we couldn't contact Spaceship Alpha 002! Their communication devices seem likely to have been damaged by the enemy's attack! And they have gotten lost within the wormhole. Their coordinates are unknown!” A young woman looks at him with fear and anxiety in her eyes.

“Shit!”

The adult man, who was the captain, growled while slamming his hand on the electronic information board in front of him.

“All of you, do everything you can to locate them at once! Rasha, contact the mothership and explain to them our situation! We need back up!” He quickly gives the order.

“Yes, sir!”

Somewhere in the wormhole…

“Aaarrghhh!!!”

“Tarius, stop shouting and make a shield for us!” A young man orders his partner.

His eyes were the colour of midnight blue with short black hair. On his body was a tight black suit, showing his strong and tall body at 1.9 metres in height. His head was covered with a protective helmet. The helmet was showing malfunctioning data posted in front of his eyes. He closed the data that was going to give him a headache by touching a small smooth button beside his left head.

His partner, Tarius, has short golden hair with baby blue eyes. His body was the lean type and not much muscle as the other but still tall at a height of 1.83 metres. He too wore the same suit and was yelling his heart out.

They were in a small spaceship, a size as big as a half football field. However, red alarms sounded everywhere inside the spaceship. Fariz, the one who ordered, feels like they would not be safe after seeing their spaceship damaged heavily by the enemy.

“The air is getting thin and none of this control works anymore.” He thought with slight nervousness.

Tarius, who finally snapped out of his panic, because their spaces were hit and rolling wildly toward somewhere unknown, finally used his hidden power to make two oval shields and enclose them in them.

“Fariz! If we don’t do something, this spaceship is going to explode!”

He could see their engines were on fire through the spaceship window. Fariz grit his teeth.

“Tarius, we only have one way. Could you use your power of teleportation?”

“Huh? Are you crazy?! My teleportation cannot reach our mother world! Did you forget we’re in space?!”

“Yes, I know that but we might have a slight chance to live. So, teleport us somewhere you could feel there’s a safe place to be transported to.”

“Shit! This won’t be easy. We’re in the wormhole. Who knows what place we’re going to be teleported to. Are you sure about this?”

Fariz nodded with a serious expression. Seeing his unwavering eyes, Tarius finally summoned his inner power again. While at that he closed his eyes to concentrate. He searches through his senses outside the spaceship.

At first, he was worried there was no place for them to go until something was found from his senses. It was another world they were going to pass by. Since the wormhole has no end, unless they can control their spaceship back and set a location, that world was their only chance to get out of it.

“Hang on!” He told Fariz before he bit a finger until it bled and drew something like a small rune in the air.

The rune stays in the air and glows yellow. After the last line connected to the other end, both him and Fariz’s bodies glowed slightly and they disappeared from the spaceship. If they were a minute late, they would die in the explosion that happened from the spaceship overheating.

As for in another place…

“Pegasus! You bastard!!!” Someone yelled out.

Some people who have a high sense of hearing heard it. And one of them was Kairi, the leader of the 32 Bright Star users and also the King of Syarantonia Kingdom.

He had short red hair and the same colour as his eyes. He, who was washing his face, was startled along with his wife, Aries, in the bathroom. Both look at each other with a helpless smile.

Aries had long blond hair with sparkling blue eyes. Her face, according to him, was the most beautiful he had ever seen, which was an exaggeration on his part. Her skin was smooth, fair and milky white. Currently, she was wearing a red nightdress that made Kairi's eyes form a hidden desire toward her.

They just got married more than a month ago and Aries was already pregnant with their baby.

“Those two… Can’t they just stop making trouble? It’s morning!” Aries complains before she feels dizzy all of a sudden.

Her body, which almost fell to the floor, was caught by Kairi.

“My love, are you alright?” Kairi was anxious seeing her situation.

Aries brushes her eyes. “I’m fine, my beloved. It’s just one of the symptoms of pregnancy.”

She then looks at him with a small smile.

Kairi instantly shows guilt in his eyes.

“I wish I could have your symptoms... So that you won’t have to go through any of this.”

Listening to his concern, she reached for his face and kissed his lips.

“I am fine. I’m happy to do this for you… And I’m doing this for our child as well.” She put her hand on her stomach.

Kairi's eyes went to it too and slowly smiled at her. He lifted her up and didn’t allow her to move or walk on her own. He’s going to ensure that she wasn’t doing anything that harms herself. Aries scolds him for turning into a worrywart but she was happy about his careful attitude toward her and their baby.

The baby was only a month old inside of her. It was still a dangerous period for her. Kairi, who would become a father for the first time, truly worries about everything that involves her. If, according to his wish, he didn’t want her to walk a step out of their house.

Yes, a house. A house on top of a small mountain behind the palace building. He didn’t want to stay in the same room inside the newly built palace skyscraper since he felt it was too high for her and too small for them since they would have a child now.

As for their new house, it was surrounded by a high gold fence and watched by the palace guards in and out of it. Some servants and maids help with the daily work of the whole house and yard. And one of them was Aerith, who had become the head maid, for the house.

The area was wide and had a small fish pond on the left side while the right side had a big garden and a small playground. Kairi made the playground because he thinks his children and their friends would play with it in the future.

Behind the house, a children's and an adult pool were built there. It was suggested by Kage or his stellar name, Scorpio, for him to make the style look more modern. Kairi thought it was not needed and he worried that his children might accidentally fall into it.

However, he’s the one who let Kage build his house. Since the project was done before he could stop it, he could only add a steel fence around the pools and also around the pond. He hopes the fence will ensure the children's safety.

As for the part where he doesn't want Aries to step out of the house, well, it wasn’t agreed. Aries, who had read his mind, hit his head and scolded him about it. If he really stops her, then he can sleep outside forever.

So harsh…

After washing and changing their clothes, Kairi teleports them to the meeting hall in one of the palace's new buildings. Two weeks ago, their palace was destroyed along with the entire city by Revioryx’s attacks. After defeating him, Kairi along with the help of Orion and Kage rebuild the entire Antonia once again.

The city can finally be occupied after everything was done a week ago and their residents who were in Econia have returned and checked their new homes. Although lots of merchandise and their stuff were destroyed, Kairi and all the power users involved compensated them with anything they needed for free.

Even the angels had come to Kairi, one at a time during the nighttime and given him lots of items and gold, hoping to help him to compensate for the destroyed city. Though they could just use their power to create one, that would waste lots of their power and startle the residents.

The residents didn't know that angels existed and thought they were just mitos. The secrets of their existence must not be exposed or their world would turn into panic again.

“Hm… Where are Agi and Pegasus? Wait, don’t tell me. Sigh… Those two…”

Kairi was going to start the meeting with everyone from the 32 Bright Star users and those who were involved in the war before. Yet, only two people were missing.

“Tsk! Your Majesty, just start it. We don’t need to wait for those two idiots.” Sethan, the stellar Monoceros user, spoke up.

“Sethan, be a little more polite with your words. You are in the presence of our king.” Hartina, the Hydra user, scowled at him.

“Whatever… Come on, I don’t want to be here for more than a minute! I want to go fight the seadragon now!” Sethan looked impatient.

Some rolled their eyes at this fighting maniac. Some sighed and then turned their head on Kairi again when they heard him speak once more.

“Alright, let's just start without them. Don’t worry, Sethan, we will only have the meeting for half an hour. I do have another meeting with King Loar and other kings after this.”

Kairi smirked after seeing the excitement light in Sethan's eyes. He then looked at everyone.

“Today, as usual, you can go to the other kingdoms and help them eradicate the monsters there. But, I want you to be extra careful. I heard some monsters can infect some humans and turn them into a monster like them.”

“Huh? What the heck? This is like a zombie movie turned into reality.” Ceilius chuckled after listening to it.

He was the stellar Lupus user.

“Zombie movie? What’s that?” Gemini asked.

Gemini was the only stellar user who had two children combined to become him. They wouldn’t always stay as Gemini and only appear when needed. The children were named Gem and Ini.

Ceilius turned to him.

“It was a moving image shown only in the Eridan Kingdom’s theatre with humans turning into something wild. They still look human but they eat the flesh of another human and turn the one they ate into like them as well. There’s some who have lost their parts like eyes, hands and legs but still can move when they smell a living human. But the one infected, they were not a living being, they were already dead.” He explained in detail.

Unbeknownst to him, everyone looked at him with surprised eyes. Ceilius, known by them, would never speak so patiently before or in detail.

Is this really Ceilius? Why can’t they believe it?

Even Kairi raised his eyes at him with bewilderment before he snapped out of it.

“Ehem! As mentioned and explained by our friend here… You will meet these kinds of monsters later. So, make sure you wear your thick armour or shield. This monster's appearance was said to be as small as a rat but don’t have much power. Still, it was one of the dangerous creatures created by Revioryx’s power.” He told them about the monster.

“Heh! Even though Revioryx was gone now, he was still able to create chaos for our world. Who knows what creatures you might see in the Eridan Kingdom. So, once again, please be extra careful and don’t lose your focus even a second once you are there or in another kingdom. Understand?”

“We understand, Your Majesty,” Leo said, for all of them.

He was the sub-leader for everyone if Kairi was busy with something. And before Kairi appeared, he was the one who handled the entire kingdom's safety along with Auriga and his wife, Perseus. All three were the oldest Bright Star users.

“Well then…” Before Kairi could finish his word, the entrance door was open from outside.

“My apologies, Your Majesty, everyone. I was stuck with something annoying just now.” Agi finally appeared.

He was the stellar Sagittarius user and his expression looked very irritated.

“It’s fine… Where’s Pegasus?” Kairi doesn’t sense him nearby or anywhere in Antonia.

“Oh, him…” Agi moved his eyes away. “Ah, he had something to do. Don’t worry, Your Majesty. He is doing his duty as usual.”

Everyone stared at him and silently, they felt a little sympathy for Pegasus. But they think he deserves it. Agi probably had sent him somewhere where the latter would turn into an unusual self and might shriek like a woman.

Who told him to always tease and annoy the little guy. Yes, Agi was the smallest among them and shorter. They would think he was a kid if they passed him but no one dared to tease him as Pegasus did.

His power… Well, he can overturn a city if he went really mad and of course, no one wants that to happen.
