"Wait, I have a question."

Chiki interrupted them and turned to face Dan Moroboshi, who was standing in the center of the group.

Where did Feng Yuan go?

"Stop paying attention to that useless guy."

Upon hearing the mention of Fengyuan, Shirato's expression immediately turned sour.

"He has other work to do, so don't worry about him for now."

Dan Moroboshi, no longer wanting to answer the question, turned around and showed everyone the screen behind him, using his cane to point to the area marked on the screen and assign tasks to everyone.

"Area A: Kuroda; Area B: Aoshima; Area C: Shirakawa; Area D: Momoi; Area E: Chiki... Shirakawa, you're on a guerrilla mission."

Dan Moroboshi gave him a deep look, knowing his determination to seek revenge.

"Now that everyone understands, let's get started. Be sure to report any issues promptly."

"Yes!"

In the vast and boundless universe, the light of countless nebulae and stars is incredibly dazzling. The powerful and beautiful light is mysterious and magnificent, illuminating countless places in space.

However, such beauty can only be appreciated when the field of vision is vast enough; for a human being to float in such a cosmic space would only feel fear.

The size of stars is unbelievable, and the radius of nebulae is even more unimaginable. However, when the great light they emit reaches a terrifying distance, it loses its grandeur. On the human retina, it appears as a large cluster of light in the distance. Compared to that untouchable grandeur, the omnipresent darkness around us seems more real.

Floating in this ancient cosmic space, feeling engulfed by darkness that has existed for countless billions of years, an indescribable terror will instantly take hold of your heart.

It was a fear of infinity, a feeling that all concepts were shattered by the vastness of the universe... a feeling of having no foothold, as if the surrounding void was about to devour even one's own fear.

In a place devoid of starlight, in this darkness, the remains of a planet silently exude the stench of decay, while a horrible carrion worm devours its corpse.

Its hunger is insatiable, as its diseased body is uncontrollably producing a terrifying monster called the Disc Creature.

As its mother planet and parent body, it is also a giant creature of unknown origin. However, this consciousness is crude and instinctive. Because it uncontrollably nurtures disc-shaped creatures, it must satisfy its appetite by destroying other planets.

On this strange, enormous creature, its "children" usually remain quietly in a shrunken, standby state. Only a small number of individuals obey its commands, searching for food for the mother under the leadership of a commander.

That's right, this terrifying creature is Black Star.

And now, on this dark planet, a meeting is being held to decide the future of this enormous creature.

As individuals differentiated from the planet Black in order to better obtain food, Commander Black possesses a thinking ability far exceeding that of his almost unintelligent homeworld.

Their minds are imprinted with the mother's desire to find food and survive, so they understand long-term planning.

However, compared to the mothers who only know how to satisfy their immediate desires, those who think about the future seem quite pathetic.

Because they are acutely aware of the nature of their home planet, they constantly destroy other planets to feed on them, uncontrollably breeding disc-shaped creatures for invasion. Then, their desire to feed is increased by these pathetic life forms. They will only be trapped in a vicious cycle of plundering energy and consuming population, which is constantly depleting energy resources.

Their future is bleak.

This reality is cruel for the only intelligent life forms on their planet. This enormous creature is a mistake, and so are they... The best fate is destruction, just as they have fought against other planets in order to survive.

This is extremely tragic.

In this situation, the Black commanders also split into two factions: the Enma faction and the Doma faction.

Having witnessed the beauty of other planets and hating their own fate, the commanders of the Enma faction, led by Enl, became twisted, transforming their despair and hatred for the future into jealousy that drove them to want to destroy other beautiful things.

Those who still held a glimmer of hope for the future were the Doma faction. They believed that their home planet would evolve through continuous devouring, and that the Disc race would eventually break free from the vicious cycle and destiny of constant invasion and plunder. All they could do was wait.

The difference between them, and the point of contention, is that when invading other planets, the Enma sect will destroy everything on that planet, including all life on it, while the Doma sect will choose to spare them.

But they will not stop invading; this is their tragic survival philosophy. Moreover, their planets are so lacking in energy in this vicious cycle that they are on the verge of depletion.

"There is a blue and beautiful planet out there in the solar system, which may become our next target."

Enma took out the Black Crystal, which was filled with the energy of this planet, and with the help of the special equipment around her, a rough map of the entire Milky Way appeared in front of them in a 3D form.

"Moreover, a special dark energy was recently detected there. Although it was very small, so small that we almost didn't detect it, it was a particularly pure form of darkness, seemingly a power beyond its current level."

"That would be wonderful!"

As soon as a commander from the Enma faction finished his report, a commander from the Doma faction immediately stood up upon hearing the news, even though they were at the end of the meeting.

"Perhaps our home planet can evolve after absorbing this power!"

"Hmph! You guys are still so childish!"

One of the commanders from the Enma faction immediately mocked.

"Accept your fate as soon as possible. How much longer do you plan to sleep in that bubble of fantasy?"

The words of the Enma sect left no one in the Doma sect daring to refute them; they had always been the weaker party.

"Yes."

Enma, the representative of the faction, nodded, gripping the Black crystal ball in her hand even tighter.

"Only by constantly devouring... can we prolong the life of our planet. This is also our destiny. You have all felt it, haven't you? We haven't been eating the corpses of this newly invaded planet for long, and our planet is even hungrier because more disc-shaped creatures have been conceived, and energy is becoming even scarcer... Now we need to abandon this cosmic junkyard and move on to our next target."

As if it were a manifestation of the will of Black Star itself, the meeting reached a consensus that this dark planet, or rather, this terrifying, enormous creature, would fly towards the distant blue planet.
