Due to Shiratori's strong intervention, the two princes who had originally planned to fight to the death in the imperial capital decided to temporarily cease fighting and hold a peace talk with the direct participation of the leaders.
Of course, everyone knew that this was just a formality - they actually wanted to use the peace talks to directly kill each other, or at least find out the other party's weaknesses.
——So this peace talk, which had nothing real in it, officially began with everyone having their own ulterior motives.
……
"Listen carefully. If I take off the disguise on my face, no matter who is by my side, you must temporarily turn off the communication."
"This... obeys your command."
Although Locke was somewhat puzzled, he did not question Aarons' order. The other team members did not have any opinions and just nodded silently.
"Also give me a psychic bomb. Do you have any?"
The psychic bomb is actually a special grenade - this portable weapon does not release a lot of spiritual power, but its power is enough to cause damage to ordinary combat professionals.
Aarons specifically asked for this thing just to increase his deterrent power.
"Okay... this is it."
After bringing the team to the designated location, Aarons saw a large temporary tent.
The soldiers belonging to the eldest prince and the second prince were standing outside the tent, guarding against each other with their swords drawn, and it seemed as if they could start fighting at any time.
"We came from above. Can we go in?"
Seeing a man who looked like an official waiting at the door of the tent, Aarons led his team over.
He just pointed to the sky and the other party immediately understood what he meant.
"Are you the envoy of His Excellency Marquis Aarons Moti? Welcome. However, for security reasons, you can only bring one attendant with you."
"Humph, are those two guys so afraid of death?"
While laughing at the two fools who dared to provoke a war but were afraid of death, Aarons waved to Locke beside him.
He had agreed on several secret codes with the team in advance. With just a gesture, he could make this fully armed team immediately attack all enemies around them.
Of course, if they really did that, it would be difficult for them to return alive.
"Whatever. It's not up to me to decide whether I will die or not."
……
"The negotiation specialist has entered the tent, and the captain of the Sand Lizard Team has followed him in."
"Very good, this way we can find out what those two guys rely on... Hmm? Yalu, what's wrong with you?"
After confirming that the negotiator had entered the negotiation site, Keliya, as the acting captain, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
——This is a very important task. The negotiation specialist sent by Shiratori needs to find out the true intentions of the two princes as much as possible. If everything goes well, they also need to find a way to leave a mark on them.
Although killing these two guys directly can solve the problem, their power will also get out of control. Whoever takes charge of the empire will take over a huge mess.
Therefore, Klia must find a way to eliminate these two sources of trouble at the lowest cost.
"Sister, I didn't find the problem?"
"Problem? What's the problem?"
"Brother, where have you been?"
Hearing her sister, who was also working on the bridge, say something strange, Claire couldn't help but frowned in confusion.
A few days ago, Aarons finally realized that he was too tired and could no longer continue to work normally, so he decided to take a good rest. He left White Bird and returned to the border alone in a small boat.
Everyone present at the time knew about this - and Yalu should have been by his side at the time.
"Hasn't my husband gone home? He said he was too tired that day and went back in a boat. Didn't we send him off together?"
"Brother, are you leaving?"
For some reason, the mysterious girl expressed doubt about this statement.
However, Claire had no idea why she thought so - that day, all the female members of the team came to the bridge to stop Aarons from taking any further risks, and Aarons readily admitted that he had some problems, and then immediately transferred the command to her.
Then everyone saw him off from Bai Niao together... saw him off together... left?
"Well... he did leave. Does anyone else here know about this?"
——Something seems to be wrong.
"But brother, you have always been by our side. You are still here today, preparing something."
"Etc., etc!"
With a flash of uneasiness in her heart, Keliya immediately called out to her other half - and when her left eye turned into a burning golden pupil, her expression became stiff.
Only then did she realize that she had actually seen two completely different scenes.
"It was my husband's mental illusion... I couldn't even see through it!"
——Aarons actually never left White Bird.
After he had an argument with the female group, he immediately used his mental power to create a fictional illusion.
Thanks to the amplification of the Mist Demon Star's body, even Klia, the Child of the Star, was unable to see through the illusion in the first place - they were trapped in the illusion and mistakenly believed that Aarons had left White Bird, and even acted according to the false arrangement.
At that time, perhaps only the real Mist Phantom Star was not affected by this mental power... But Yalu didn't know what Aarons was going to do, and she trusted Aarons so much that she never thought about pointing out this fact.
As more and more people showed abnormal behavior, Yalu, who had been just observing, finally asked this question... This also made Keliya, who had the other half of her body, realize her mistake.
...but that's all.
"Oh no... Where is my husband now? Does anyone know?!"
"Eh? Your Highness, what's wrong with you? Didn't the captain go back a while ago?"
The other people in the command room have not been able to escape from that illusion until now...so they still think that Aarons has returned to the border territory.
So Claire
"Well, I actually made such a stupid mistake... Yalu! Find a way to dispel the illusion left by my husband! Get ready in the hangar! I need the 'Evil Star' to be ready to attack immediately!"
[What... Your Highness, your machine is still undergoing equipment debugging, so it cannot be started immediately! ]
"Remove all the unused parts! I need to go immediately--"
——But it was too late.
"What... Report! A large number of unidentified flying objects have been detected approaching at high speed from the northeast! The number... is over three hundred! The estimated energy level... Oh my god!!"
"What's wrong! Damn it... hurry up and tell me!"
"Report! A critical carbon-uranium reaction has been detected in an approaching UFO! The scale of the reaction... may trigger several spiritual explosions!"
Yes, it's too late.
