Galaxy Wars: The Legacy of Light and Darkness

The safety pod left the cruiser fast while he was inside watching the space circling around him until it stabilized itself. "Now, let's have some walk," he smiled as he pressed the button and the hatch opened, with a great traction force taking his body forcibly outside.

The next moment he pictured himself and turned into a dragon.

"What do you think?" he asked while trying to test a theory he had.

Yet nothing came to him at all!

"Can you hear me?" he muttered before he sighed in relief when he didn't hear anything back. "So space can jam the signal," he was excited to find a place where that witch wouldn't prey on him.

"Now, what the hell just happened?" he was finally able to think rationally about everything that he passed through. "Was I poisoned? Tricked? Or what?!!" he recalled the meeting with that stranger while feeling much odd about what just happened.

"But he proved his words after all," he sighed when he recalled what that witch said when he used the words that master provided to him. "Yet he did that in a discrete way, tsk," he shook his head before adding, "would it kill him if he just told me everything directly?"

James knew that man was strange and unique, yet he was now in a grave situation. "Islinda was infected and now she is going to infect everyone," that was the imminent crisis he had to solve right away. "How can I do that again?" he muttered when he recalled what the master did.

"He waved his hands like this," James tried to mimic him, yet the next moment he felt like holding a burning aura inside his hands; was about to explode. "Damn!" he cursed while he tried to recall everything in a calmer way.

"That master used words, posture, and movement to activate his techniques," James reached this conclusion not through what the master did to extract that parasite from his soul, but from the technique he used on the witch to force her to spill out everything.

"So I have to mimic his posture, his movements, and also his words to the letter," James started to take the same posture that man had while recalling the words he was saying.

"Wait a minute," James paused, "it was me who said those words!" it hit him while another realization hit him, "I need another one to perform this on him," he thought again and the more he did he became more confident to try this out.

"But…" he hesitated, as if he did so while Islinda was inside the suit then she wouldn't be severed from the spy of that witch; the witch would hear everything and figure out what he was doing.

"I need to make her level rise up fast," he muttered, "not only her, but also the others," he thought about his long harem and sighed. "Time to go back," he moved towards the cruiser and the moment he reached there he heard the sound of the witch ranging in his mind:

"Babe, can you not do that again? Please? I was so worried over you."

"Me too," he lied before adding, "what happened? I shouted a lot but you never answered."

"Dunno, maybe the distance between us is very vast so that cold and merciless space interferes with our loveable connection," she said before adding in soft cuckle, "what are you going to do now? Summon the girls and have a wild party?"

His heart clenched as this wasn't the first time the witch asked about his girls. "Sure, but I have a war to supervise plus my girls are weak right now," he said before heading directly towards the commanding deck.

"Relay my orders," he instantly said, "tell Islinda to take all the girls in my palace and go to Luna. They have to start eating all the ores stored there, and make Luna leave this one single command," ha paused while the droid responsible for the communication was eagerly listening. "All the ores must be moved and stored at their current place; the supply shall never stop!"

Everyone glanced at him in a weird way. They were in the middle of a big war right now, and many riots started to erupt across the empire and he was only caring about his girls and some ores!

"What are you waiting for?!" James shouted angrily making everyone jolted awake. The droid hurried to relay the orders while the right man droid in the cruiser said, while watching James returning to his seat.

"What about the riots? We have many occurring at the moment, and Islinda is the one leading the resistance."

"Relieved."

"What?"

"She is relieved from that duty," James simply said.

"And… who is going to suppress the resistance?" the droid was having more doubt towards his leader.

He had many dark thoughts about being poisoned or even replaced!

"We will," James firmly said, "relay the orders, we will take charge of that fight!"

The droid was surprised before he hurriedly asked: "But my leader, we are already leading the operation of the frontlines."

"And what's in that?" James casually asked while noticing the hesitation and puzzlement of the droid. "C'mon, I'm the general leader of this army, the emperor of the empire! Don't tell me you think I'm that useless to lead my empire at the times of distress!!"

The droid felt more nervous as he realized he stepped voluntarily inside a hornets nest! "I… I never meant that, my supreme leader and emperor," he hurried to retreat what he just said, hoping for James to forgive and forget.

"Never mind," and James wasn't in the mood to care about these minute trifles, "go and do your duty, we have a lot to do," he moved his seat to face the hologram while thinking of the man who stood there a while ago.

"Let's show the entire universe how mighty and capable I'm," he muttered while he meant totally different meaning.

"You are acting… weird!" the witch said.

"How?" James wasn't fazed by her doubt, as he knew she would have much.

"Won't you crave for your girls?"

"Why are you so fixated about them anyway?" he laughed before adding, "will you join us, perhaps?"

"Stop it," she laughed while feeling more peace knowing he didn't change, "I just want to have some fun."

"Want some, come and join us," he laughed while using this as an excuse to make her stop harassing him.

"No, thanks, I will have to pass on that."

"C'mon, you are sexy and mature, or do you have a man?" he said.

"What?" she laughed, "no, of course not, I'm a lonely proud lady," she said.

"Wrong," he said, "you are a sexy hot lady waiting to be squeezed and moisturized, hehehe," he laughed and she just sneered without saying another word about the matter.

"Emperor, news from the front," the droid said, "Dora's fleet is preparing to move to attack," he added while showing the latest updates on the hologram.

"Good," James said, "what about the pockets of resistance?" he muttered, while indirectly checking on what Islinda and others were doing right now.

"We…" The droid hesitated before adding, "we still didn't take the command over the operation from…" he didn't continue when James suddenly went angry as his domineering dragon aura dissipated to cover the entire commanding deck; making everyone tremble in fear.

"What did you just say?" James asked, and the droid just swallowed his dried up throat.

The next moment he showed the picture of Islinda on the hologram, putting the main culprit in front of his emperor for him to save his neck.

"James, wha…" she was about to speak when James gave her a very serious and threatening glance that made her heart shudder and she paused in her phrase with sweat oozing off her face.

A very cold sweat.

"Do… As… I said!" he simply said those words in a very calm way, yet they came out in a very loud and domineering tone!

"S- S- Sure," she stuttered before nodding.

He waved to the droid who was already petrified in his seat. "Receive the command of the operation now," he said while Islinda was still on with him.

"Now!" he shouted at her and that jolted her body awake! She hurried to press many buttons in a very nervous way before she said: "It's… done."

"Good," he said while he took the confirmation from his droid.

"Do you want me to brief you ab…" she was midway when he gave her another warning glance, making the rest of her words suffocate inside her throat.

"I'll come to visit and play when I finish killing off those worthless fools," he said before simply closing the connection from a button on the side of his seat.

Then the deck ushered under a heavy silence.

"My emperor," the droid said after long minutes of hesitation.

"What?" James replied in an aggressive tone.

"Shouldn't we move now to destroy these rebels?"

"What are you waiting for?" James glanced at him and the droid hurried to look towards his own panel and started moving the cruiser and the small fleet alongside it towards the front. "We are on the way, emperor," he said while trying to limit his own wordings with James from now on.

A sense of fear and danger overwhelmed him as both overwhelmed Islinda who sat back at her palace trying to catch her own breaths. "He was never in such a way before," she muttered, while recalling his scary gazes. "I should… yeah, I should hurry and make everyone move with me towards Luna."

She couldn't dare to risk delaying, or else this new version of James was really unpredictable.
