The backdrop can also be propped up.

After returning to Ithanar, the group first took Pollarid home, while Alina went to stay at Maria Elisa's rented apartment.

Then Ancadis took Maria Elisa to another spaceship.

On the other spaceship was the guard team that Ancadis had promised to bring to Maria Elisa, a total of 920 people.

After counting the number of people, Ancadis took Maria Elisa back to her apartment.

Along the way, Maria Elisa sensed that Ancadis wanted to say something. When they reached the apartment building, Ancadis stopped Maria Elisa and asked her, "Tell me, what do you need these guards for, Elisa?"

Ankadis wouldn't normally have bothered with Maria Elisa's questions, but seeing Maria Elisa being choked by Makachi today, which was unusual for her, he had to take it seriously—he suspected that Maria Elisa was hiding something from him.

“I’m going to take them to Kladas to help me solve some problems.” Maria Elisa felt that there was no point in keeping the capture a secret from Ankadis, so she might as well tell him first, who might be able to help her in some way.

"You're going to send them to guard Krada? That's not enough people, is it?" Ankadis sensed that Maria Elisa hadn't told him everything.

“Someone has opened a brothel on the planet Krada.” Maria Elisa dropped a bombshell for Ankadis right off the bat. “When I went to Krada before, I found a rather prosperous town. When I went down to take a look, I found this brothel.”

“There are quite a few people inside, especially young children, who make up a large proportion of the population. Many of them, both boys and girls, have been abducted,” Maria Elisa recalled what she had seen and heard in that town on the planet Kladas.

Ankadis, who was already frowning, frowned even more deeply when he heard Maria Elisa say that.

“Oh, right, I also saw a portrait of my father over there.” Maria Elisa didn’t dare to describe the painting in full, fearing that her brother, like in the timeline where she died, would scatter her adoptive father’s ashes when he got home—although Mr. Ottolai wasn’t exactly a good person, it was still quite troublesome to collect the ashes after they were scattered.

“Actually, besides my father’s portrait, I also saw portraits of many political figures, as well as some celebrities from the entertainment industry, the kind who are very popular,” Maria Elisa continued.

From the moment Maria Elisa mentioned seeing her father's portrait, Ankadis closed his eyes and pressed his brow, seemingly unwilling to try to understand these things.

When Ankadis heard that other political figures and celebrities were also involved, he laughed in exasperation.

Those brothers and sisters of mine are really good at causing me trouble. Who the hell is behind this now? Ankadis really wants to pilot his spaceship back to their family's planet and dig out Old Man Otolay's ashes from the grave and scatter them into the air.

“I understand, Maria Elisa. So you need the guards to do these things, right? I can send someone to take that place to…” Ankadis was about to say that Maria Elisa didn’t need to worry about it and that he could send people to break into the place and take care of everyone involved when he felt Maria Elisa hug him.

“Give me a chance, Anx.” Maria Elisa buried her head in Ancadis’s chest. “At least I inherited that planet; you’ve already given it to me!”

If Anke really gets to handle it, the people there will be in big trouble. If there are government officials there, my brother will definitely be cursed to death by other organizations. Maria Elisa thought helplessly.

Ankadis paused for two seconds, then reached out and patted Maria Elisa's head, saying, "Okay, but I have to come with you."

“Yay! Anx is the best.” Maria Elisa said, hugging Ancadis a little tighter.

Then bring Lily and Pollarid along. Lily's a doctor; she can examine those people. As for Pollarid, bringing him along should be enough to complete the mission. Maria Elisa thought to herself, turning and entering the apartment building to say goodbye to Ancadis.
