The Number One Star in the Interstellar Era [BL]

But Gage still didn\'t show his anger and instead continued asking, "Where are you keeping this \'souvenirs\'?"

Cecil\'s expression appeared very reluctant. His brows scrunched up and his expression turned very ugly. But at the end, he still answered Gage\'s question. "At my villa on the planet Seavis."

"Tell me the exact location."

Cecil\'s expression became even uglier. But he still told Gage the exact location of the villa.

Emmy almost made a fist bump when she heard that answer. This was the information they were waiting for. A clear evidence of Cecil Lancaster\'s crimes. If people found those \'souvenirs\' and then extracted the DNA from them, if they entered it on the database, they would surely find that the owner of those eyes belonged to people who died or had been missing.

Even if the Lancaster family hid the deaths of Cecil\'s victims, he couldn\'t just simply erase their existence. 

They planned to send the recording of this video to someone who could fight with the Lancaster family and was determined enough to reveal Cecil\'s crimes to the public. Of course, their top choice was her dear father. 

If they gave him a copy of the video, he could mobilize the Grimaldi family\'s force and ensure that those \'souvenirs\' wouldn\'t end up in the hands of the Lancasters. 

In the case that he didn\'t live up to their expectation, then they could simply send the copy of the video to one of the Empire\'s generals. Preferably one who was on the opposing side of the Lancasters. 

Once they were sure that the evidence was secured, then they would post the video on [StarNet]. Emmy had no doubt that it would definitely spread like wildfire once it\'s posted there. 

She looked back at the virtual screen and saw Cecil trembling all over. Most likely because of anger. No, definitely anger. 

Cecil looked at Gage viciously, as if he wanted to kill the other in the most painful way. Then suddenly he calmed down, as if he just realized the seriousness of his situation right now.

"What do you want? Are you doing this for money? To blackmail my family? I can give you as much money as you want. I could even forget this disrespect that you\'ve shown me. I\'m still under the influence of the serum, so you know I\'m telling the truth."

"I\'m not here to negotiate with you," Gage said in a cold voice. "I don\'t plan on letting you get out of here alive. This will be the place where you will die."

After Gage said that, the video transmission on Emmy\'s Terminal suddenly ended. And she immediately knew that the other cut off the transmission. Probably so she couldn\'t see what he was about to do to Cecil Lancaster.

But Emmy couldn\'t remain calm. The distance of the aircraft from the area where Gage and Cecil were was not that far. But it was also not that near. If Gage was too immersed in his anger to the point that he lost track of his surroundings, what would he do if those ferocious beasts started to swarm them?

That\'s why they decided that he would contact him as soon as he finished his interrogation. That way, she could bring the aircraft to where he was. And yet this guy not only cut off the video transmission to her Terminal, he also didn\'t bother to contact her.

She didn\'t mind if Cecil Lancaster was eaten. But she would certainly not allow Gage to have any scratch on him.

She didn\'t think more and quickly drove the aircraft to Gage\'s position. As she did, she could see from the distance that there were already some beasts that were running towards the direction of where Gage\'s was. She pushed the acceleration button and the aircraft\'s current speed almost doubled. 

Arriving at her destination, she lowered the aircraft so it would be easy for Gage to jump up. She stood up and opened the door of the aircraft. The moment she did, the first thing she heard was a loud scream. Like a pig being slaughtered. 

She turned her gaze to the source and she almost gasped when she saw Cecil\'s current condition.

He was no longer tied to the tree. Instead, his body was now lying on a pool of blood. Or at least, what remained of it. His arms and legs were cut off. The cut off limbs were scattered on the ground. Blood pouring everywhere. Surprisingly enough, he was still alive. Screaming in so much pain. Well, his body had an S level physique. It would be too bad if he died just like that.

She looked at Gage who happened to also raised his head towards her. She couldn\'t see his expression because of the mask. But he could see his hand that was tightly gripping on a sword. The veins on it were almost popping. Showing just how much anger he had right now.

She glanced at the sword he was holding that was now almost drenched in Cecil Lancaster\'s blood. She remembered how he told her that he would use a dull blade to cut Cecil. That way, the pain the other would feel would definitely be unimaginable. After all, cutting flesh using such a dull blade would be much more painful to the recipient.

Cecil Lancaster deserved this much and definitely more.

"What are you doing here?" Gage asked, his voice hoarse.

"There are beasts coming. Go inside the aircraft, that bastard would definitely not go anywhere even if we leave him there," she said, glancing at Cecil who was whimpering in pain. He didn\'t even look like he was in his right mind anymore.

Gage gave Cecil one last glance before pinning his shoulder on the ground using the sword. Then he jumped up towards the aircraft. Emmy quickly closed the door and drove the aircraft higher.

Just as she did, a number of ferocious beasts suddenly emerged from the forest and they all swarm towards Cecil\'s body. 

She and Gage didn\'t speak and just silently watched as those beasts tore through Cecil Lancaster. They watched until only his bones remained. 

Emmy turned towards Gage. He already removed his mask. The anger she was expecting was no longer there. Instead, there were only silent tears. Before she could think properly, her body already moved and she enveloped him in her arms.

"Sshh… it\'s okay, it\'s okay," she said in comfort while patting his back gently.

She felt his body stiffened at first before it slowly relaxed. Then he felt his strong arms surrounding her, hugging her tightly. As if he could draw strength from her petite body. She could also feel the tears wetting her shoulder. 

Emmy didn\'t mind and just continued to gently pat his back. "It\'s over now, Gage. It\'s over."

Yes, it\'s over. But the journey of the two of them was only just beginning.
