Ethan started a fire, took out a few pieces of meat from his space bag and began to roast them.

"Here you go." Ethan said while giving the cooked meat.

Akira looked at the man in front of him who was always so calm no matter what their situation was.

"Actually, I think we can just act like we're not getting along in front of outsiders but when we are alone we can still eat and sleep together and be as close as before so please don't you dare avoid me again." Akira said while eating.

"I suspect that there are spies planted in our squad." Ethan said while drinking water.

"Spies? Do you have any suspects?" Akira asked.

"There are some clues, but I don't know who it is yet."

The two men, who had eaten and drunk their fill get ready again but suddenly a strong double s grade alien suddenly attacked them, for the last moment Ethan forcedly opened the black hole using his spiritual power then pushed Akira with Rowan inside it and faced off the attack.

Ethan frowns being pushed backwards with blood on his lip but eyes burning with resolve.

Across from him stands an ss-class alien warrior, exoskeleton glinting, four arms flexing, twin blades retracting into its forearms. Its eyes glow violet.

Alien said in its gravelly voice: "You're strong... for a human."

Ethan just smiled then said: "Oh, an insect that could speak human language."

"How dare you compare me into an insect!"

The alien arms strike like whips, but Ethan twists, ducks, and parries on far with the alien, every move of his precise and flowing.

A spinning kick lands on the alien's chest which makes it stumble back, growling.

The alien adapts mimicking Ethan's style. It blows become more refined, deadly.

Ethan narrows his eyes. His stance changes then clashes again at the climax, Ethan leaps, spins midair, and slams a kick using his spiritual power to the alien's head which finally kills the alien.

The severe pain of overusing his spiritual power made Ethan's face turn pale instantly.

At the same time, a shrill howl came from the alien lord's place.

Hearing it, Ethan immediately jumped inside the black hole.

Arriving in a strange place, Akira suddenly pushed him and angrily said: "Why did you do that?! How dare you get left behind!"

Ethan just hugged the angry Akira then said: "I'm sorry I... I wouldn't do it again."

"You have better be or else...." Akira being hugged calmed down.

Seeing his wife was finally calm, Ethan asked: "How is private Rowan situation?"

"His fine." Akira said without any care.

Ethan felt that his wife's attitude towards Rowan was a little strange. He always regarded himself as Rowan's protector but now he was suddenly uninterested.

"How are you?" Akira gently asked looking at the pale Ethan.

"I'm fine." Ethan said while he leaned his head on Akira's shoulder. He was lucky that their uniforms is black or else his wife will definitely see the blood on his clothes.

"You aren't fine, I have to let my family personal doctor help you take a good look when we get back. No, in fact let's go now."

"Akira please calm down." Ethan gently said while hugging his wife looking at him now.

Akira looked at Ethan's pale face then nodded.

At this moment, on the top floor of a wizard tower, all the top researchers were sitting around a square table. The person who called for the meeting named Yuan Mendoza.

Looking at everyone, Yuan seriously said: "The content of this meeting is classified as top secret." The he added: "This mission was issued by the military an hour ago."

The meeting lasted for two hours to finish, after the meeting Yuan returned to his room and called someone.

Ethan answered the call then said: "Brother."

"Ethan, I just received a mission from the higher-ups regarding the information you give." Yuan seriously said.

"Just now?" Ethan frowned then he added: "We submitted the report to the military five days ago."

Yuan angrily said: "Damn them! Until now they're still thinking about how to get a lot of benefits!" Then he added: "Let's get down to business. I need you to tell me every detail about what happened during your mission."

"First...." Ethan carefully explain everything from every detail except using his spiritual power instead of mental power that was much renown to this world.

Soon, Yuan got the information he wanted. The phone call ended.

Inside Akira's room, Akira who was currently laying on Ethan's lap asked: "Have you ever regretted it?"

"What?" Ethan look down and didn't quite understand what he meant.

"Back then, you ignored the opposition of your family and choose to follow me even though you didn't like....." Akira didn't finish his words, Ethan already understood what he meant.

"I'm still walking on the same path without deviating so don't you ever feel guilty of my own decisions." Ethan said while gently looking at his wife.

The Research Institute quickly came up with a definite analysis report that the alien lord was planning to go on its hibernation state. It was neither good or bad news but while the alien lord is on the process of hibernation its power was much stronger than before.

Well it is still good news because that is the best way to kill the alien lord before it totally hibernate or else no one can touch it because its cocoon is to strong like a shield that could never be penetrate.

A few days later, a high-level meeting held regarding this research report caused chaos. Several generals totally disregarded their image and quarreled like a child. Half of the generals want to send hope squad as the front liners for the battle against the alien lord.

General Kenji, who had been very emotional before, fell silent. He felt disgusted when he saw the greedy eyes of his co-generals. Whether for public or private reasons, he wanted to send his own troops to reinforce his son's army, but his base locations were the exact opposite of where the alien planet located. By the time his troops arrived, the alien lord had already hibernate successfully.

General Kenji sigh, even if they can successfully wipe out the aliens this time, it is unclear whether the future of humanity will be smooth specially looking at their greediness. Maybe humanity will not be extinct from the hands of aliens but by the hands of humanity itself.
