Sylvia and Ian were seated on the floor, both looking up at the ghostlike figure floating in front of them. “Can you please come again. So, you mean to say that you're the chief head of this research center?” Ian starred at the floating ghost as he questioned. “That's right. I'm the one who oversees the operation of this whole facility. You might as well call me the brain behind this research center.” The male ghost figure, wearing a white coat meant for researcher smiled as he said confidently. “It’s been thousands of years; shouldn't you already be dead by now. How did you become this way?” Ian questioned again. Sigh. “Actually, I'm already dead. As to why I'm in this state, that's such a long story.” A sad expression appeared on the chief researcher face. “Were you the one spying on us earlier?” Sylvia had her suspicion as she probed. “The research center has never been visited by anyone since ages. Seeing some new faces, I became curious and come over to take a look.” The chief researcher honestly answered. “What? You've been spying on us all this while!” Ian’s eyes widen in surprise as he was stunned by this sudden revelation. The chief researcher saw the surprise look on Ian’s face. “Didn't you know. I thought you did since one of you caught on my existence earlier so I immediately went into hiding.” “Were you aware that he was spying on us all this time?” Ian asked as he turn to look at Sylvia. “It was just a feeling.” Sylvia shrugged her shoulder as she answered. “I had a hunch that something was watching us but I thought that must have been my delusion hence I ignored it.” “Wow.” Ian was stunned by how weak his perception had been. It looks like his void contract with Huji had really exposed his shortcoming. Just how weak was he to not have realized that there was someone observing them from the dark.“Were you the one who set up the array prohibiting us from summoning out our contract beast.” Sylvia looked up at the floating chief researcher. “You tell me, this place is being inhabited by weak researcher who has no strength to protect themselves. Therefore, we definitely have to take some measures in order to ensure their safety. Actually, I was the one who came up with the idea to have a beast expelling array set up around the base. Damm. Now that I think of it, I'm really a genius. During my time when...” And then the duo listened to a certain ghost researcher bragging about his achievements when he was still alive. “Oh, that remind me. Does Starry Sky planet still exist?” The chief stared down at two kids in front of him with a bit of hope in his eyes. Sylvia looked sideways at Ian who then answered. “Yes, it does.” “Ahh, that's a relief. I thought that the planet would have ceased to exist but who knew there would be luck on our side. This is a great news. After hearing this, I can finally let my soul discard peacefully.” Happiness was evident on the chief face. “Hum… Mr. chief researcher. Before you leave, can you please tell us what happened here in the past? Why did you think Starry Sky planet would have ceased to exist? Did anything earthshattering occurred in the past that we are unaware of?” Sylvia watched the expression on the chief changed as she asked. “That... Although I've been living in this place for so many years, I can still sense the passage of time. Hence, it wouldn't be good for me to bring up topic about the past since what’s done is already done. Therefore, you two should just focus on the present and be a great warrior for the planet in the future. As for where the valuable treasures are kept, I can show you where it's being stored.” The chief moved, ready to show them the way. “Wait a minute, Mr. chief researcher.” Sylvia got up to her feet, pulling Ian along with her. Ian stared confusedly as he was being pulled, not knowing what the other party was up to.“Him. Do you know who he is?” Sylvia pointed at Ian. “Him.” The chief was confused by Sylvia question. He looked straight at Ian as he answered. “Isn't he your partner.” “That's right. He's indeed my partner. However, do you know that he has another secret identity you’re unaware of.” Sylvia spoke with a hint of mysteriousness. “He is the current crown prince of Starry Sky planet.” “What!!” The chief’s eyes widen, feeling both surprised and shocked at the same time. “A royal. Wow, I must have saved a planet in my previous life for me to have encounter a royal before I even disperse.” The chief suddenly went on his knees. “Greeting to you, your highness. This servant here is named Yatran. I’ll be at your service anytime and anywhere you need me, your highness.” Sylvia and Ian were taken aback by this sudden change in scenario. Most especially Sylvia. She had never expected that the chief would react this way. Besides, shouldn't he be suspicious that she was lying about Ian’s identity. How come he believes her that easily. Ian was also in a state of awkwardness upon facing the chief sudden excitement. “Hum, you can get up on your feet.” He finally managed to say. “Thank you, your highness. You are just as benevolent like the saying in books.” From the bragging ghost, Yatran immediately switched over to a flattery ghost. “According to history, the royal family of Starry Sky planet are known to have been blessed by the dragon lord. As a result, they are very powerful.” The dragon lord? It seems like the chief was talking about Huji ancestor. “That's right.” Ian nodded in agreement. “It a pleasure to meet you, your highness. Do you have any question to ask me, your highness? I'll answer everything without leaving a single detail.” “You said you thought that Starry Sky planet would have ceased to exist. Can you explain to me what happened back then.” Ian repeated Sylvia earlier question. “That... Since it's being asked by you your highness, this servant of yours will explain it all to you. Actually, everything all began thousands of years ago. There was no Abyssal beast, neither were there machinery that could destroy a planet. Human beings were weak except for the royal family of Starry Sky planet who had been blessed by the dragon lord according to history.” Yatran became to explain everything to Ian.
