“I’m here.”
The remnants of the silver flowers that had been blossoming a moment ago appeared in a translucent liquid again and condensed into jade, or rather, Captain Kelly.
It glanced at the man, including his muscular chest that was almost bursting out of the curved breastplate and the two hairy legs below the short skirt. It merely raised its eyebrow and did not shout like Princess Summer did.
“Don’t be surprised. It’s perfectly normal.
Jade said to Princess Summer casually, “The sea of stars is vast, and the universe is dark. Carbon-based intelligent creatures have been wandering in the sea of stars for thousands of years, living a life of uncertainty. They may be faced with unpredictable and unstoppable destruction at any moment. Such high pressure is very difficult for your low-end, backward brains to deal with. Accidents such as overloading or crashing can occur at any time. Therefore, many crew members have their own hobbies to ease their highly-strung nerves. We should be understanding and tolerant of such hobbies that do no harm to other people.
“So… it was like this…” Princess Summer was confused.
Jade looked back at the man and said humbly, “Alright, I’ve finished explaining for you.”
“What the heck!”
The man jumped to his feet. “I’m not asking you to explain it to me like that! What ‘little hobby’? What’s ‘harmless’? What’s ‘relaxing nerves’? What’s all this? I don’t have any little hobby at all! In this regard and in that regard, I don’t have any little hobbies that are harmless or harmful! I was forced! I was framed! I was captured by the evil magician ‘Transformer’ Eric for experiments! He injected a lot of witch genes into my body and turned me into a woman!
“Sister Summer, you must believe me. When you broke into the Dark Magic Tower, you saw me tied up and hanging in midair by Eric the Shapeshifter, didn’t you? I had no choice at all!
After hearing Jade’s explanation and seeing the man waving his hands and explaining clumsily, more than half of Princess Summer’s fear was gone. She found it both funny and annoying. She nodded and said, “Yes. There was indeed such a thing. Your appearance was indeed weird when we first saw you. Everybody thought that you had been… defiled by Eric the Shapeshifter. That’s why we were so concerned about you. But we didn’t dare ask, fearing that you might be sad.”
“I have indeed been defiled by him!”
The man spat and said, “Bleh! Bleh! Bleh! Why does it sound weird when I say that? He didn’t ravage me. He savaged me. That’s not right. He savaged me so badly!”
“What? Such a beautiful face is definitely not some ghost.”
Princess Summer took a long breath and adapted to the man’s appearance. “Then, your real name is not ‘Teresa’. What’s your name?”
“My name is Han Te. I am the man who has sworn to be the king of cannons in the sea of stars!”
Han Te posed as casually as he could.
It was a pity that, against Theresa’s breastplate and short skirt, the more confident she was, the sleazy and perverted she was.
Princess Summer shivered.
Silver brightness was shining around the jade, too, which was not enough to resist Han Te’s movement.
“Special Agent Han… Special Agent Han…”
Princess Summer thought for a moment and replied, “Ah. The ‘real man’ that you told me about.”
“Yes, that’s me. Please understand, Sister Summer. I was on a great mission to travel to the Emerald Universe by myself, only to fall into the evil sorcerer’s hands by accident and become unrecognizable. I can’t tell you the truth right now, but it doesn’t mean that I’m a pervert or anything. I’m a real man!” Han Te said in grief and indignation.
Princess Summer frowned, deep in thought, as if she were analyzing whether or not Han Te’s words were true.
“Don’t doubt me, and don’t hesitate. Although I’ve changed my appearance, this is just an insignificant episode. The previous proposal is still valid. Let’s just take the escape capsule and run away. Revenge is a dish best served cold. Let Black Jack be arrogant for a while. When we gather the magnificent fleet of the Star Ocean Imperium and return to the Emerald Continent, we can crush him however we want!”
While talking, Han Te reached out for Princess Summer.
Princess Summer’s eyes bulged. She shivered and withdrew her hand subconsciously as if she had been electrocuted.
“What, you don’t believe me?”
Han was anxious. He raised his hand and swore, “I guarantee that I’m not the same as Black Jack. I will never deceive, force, or hurt a girl. Just follow me. If you are wronged in the Pangu Universe, many people, including Ding Lingdang, will jump out and blow up my head!”
“I… I’m not… not scared of being bullied by you…”
Princess Summer lowered her head and hesitated for a moment, but her voice was still clear. She asked in a low and clear voice, “What will happen to them if we leave?”
“Them?”
Han Te was dazed for a moment.
“Them.”
Princess Summer pointed at the harem outside of the transparent cabin wall, which was still being controlled by Black Jack. Their eyes were dull, and their expressions were either numb or crazy. Some of them were bombarding the transparent cabin wall, while others were acting as batteries that were being drained.
“They are my best sisters. If I leave with you just like that, won’t I be leaving them here to die?”
In a flurry, Princess Summer said, “I—I can’t do that. I can’t stand by and watch my sisters be fooled, exploited, and even devoured by Black Jack.
“Now that I’ve awakened, I should wake up all my sisters and run away from Black Jack together with them. When you were ‘Teresa’, didn’t you preach to me that girls should be independent and control their own destiny instead of being manipulated by any man? Then, how could we run away from the jerk Black Jack without a fight?
“Well…”
Han Te scratched his head hard.
“In fact, they might not be exploited to death by Black Jack.
Han Te continued his speculation that even he found hard to believe. “You see, Black Jack is exploiting their vitality because he wants to breach the defense of the cockpit of Jade. But as long as we leave in the escape capsule, we can give Jade to Black Jack for now. He won’t have to bombard them anymore. What reason does he have to exploit his sisters?”
“It can’t be that simple.”
Princess Summer smiled miserably. “Nobody knows Black Jack’s ambitions better than us. Controlling Jade is not his ultimate purpose. If he takes control of Jade today, he will wage a war against the entire Jade Universe tomorrow until he has every inch of the soil, ocean, and sky under his control. In the process, rivers of blood will flow, and all the people will be killed. All my sisters will be the fuel for his ambitions and burnt to ashes!
