Astrum and Lilo continued to move to look for the exit from this room, he didn't know how long he had been trapped in this room. There is no feeling of hunger or fatigue, this space is completely separated from the outside world.
After spinning a few times, Astrum finally got bored and asked Lilo to stop. Looking around he could still see the dot of light in the same position. He was confused, trying to find a way out of this room.
He tried to enter the space of his consciousness but to no avail. He tried to use his powers of perception, but that didn't work either. In this space, all of his abilities cannot be used at all. He was starting to get frustrated with the current situation.
He wanted to rage in this space but he was also at a loss as to how. There was no ground to stand on, he was still riding Lilo floating in the air. Confused and frustrated, he finally decided to sleep to rest his brain.
Laying his body on Lilo's back and looked up at the dark sky with a few dots of white light. He closed his eyes slowly and felt his consciousness slowly fade away. Feeling that he was about to enter a deep sleep he let go of all his thoughts. Within seconds he was asleep and started snoring. Lilo also followed Astrum, he began to close his eyes and fell asleep quickly.
Something happened without them noticing, dots of light floating in the air suddenly moved towards them.
Astrum enjoyed his sleep very much, he entered a beautiful dream. The dream is wrestling with the Star Beast, slamming the Star Beast hard and declaring its victory. In his dream, there was a white light present not far in the middle of the forest. He ran through the forest until he found a large white light shining in front of him. Without hesitation, he entered the light.
Within the light, the scene changed. His body floated without a physical form, he could see below him a Star Beast that was shaped like an 8 meter Bear was fighting with someone. That person looked as big as a Viking, but he wasn't human. His skin is brown and his face has several thorns, even his body has many tattoos.
The battle was quite fierce, the person was able to deal several fatal blows to the Star Beasts. Astrum can feel pain all over his body, even though he doesn't have a physical form. But he realized these attacks were meant to injure not to kill.
He continued to watch the fierce battle seriously. After a while, the Star Beast collapsed in exhaustion. That person approached the fallen Star Beast. The person also received injuries on his body as a result of the fight.
That person looked at the Star Beast with a serious look and said "Is this enough to prove it".
The Star Beast didn't reply to the person's words, only looking at him with a serious look as well.
The person just silently waited for the answer from the Star Beast by extending his right hand towards the Star Beast.
The Star Beast retaliated by extending its hand and when it was touched there was light flowing from the Star Beast into the Person's hand. The light flows towards the deltoid of the person's right arm and prints a star mark. The Star mark resembled the form of the Star Beast.
The person gets the star mark from the Star Beast. Astrum saw this, realizing that this person was Insignia. The previous battle was a battle to prove his worthiness to carry the star mark of the Star Beast.
After the Star mark formed, the two of them recuperated. The person took out some materials for the Star Beast to recover.
"It is impossible to take you with such a big body, I have prepared something suitable for you". He took something out of the pocket on his waist. It was originally only shaped like a silver tube.
He gripped the silver tube and suddenly the silver tube turned into a big ax.
The Star Beast seemed to understand the person's intentions. He touched the ax and his 8-meter body turned into light and then entered the ax. On the surface of the ax appeared star mark which was the same as the form of the Star Beast.
Astrum saw this for the first time, he just realized that the Star Beast that had given its star mark could turn itself into a weapon.
Then the current formless Astrum disappeared from that location. He moved to another scene. This time he saw that person fighting another Star Beast, this time the opponent was much bigger and stronger.
The person fought with all his might but his attacks were unable to get the Star Beast. He took a few steps back, then took out a few things from the pouch at his waist. There are 3 tubes with different engraved colors. He threw the tube into the air and instantly the tube turned into a weapon.
There are currently 3 weapons floating in the air; axes, spiked bats, and broadswords. The tattoos on the person's body glowed and so did the weapons. The weapon transforms into a Star Beast.
Astrum saw this scene in shock, realizing that the tattoo on the person's body was no ordinary tattoo; but is the star mark. And the person has 3 Star marks. He had a question in his heart "How many Star marks can Insignias have?".
The fight broke out again, this time the fight was one person with three Star Beasts attacking one bigger Star Beast. The clash between the claws and the blow between the Star Beasts created a violent shockwave.
After 1 hour of fighting, that person looked exhausted as well as his group of Star Beasts. The opposing Star Beasts were still standing staring at the group of attackers.
Suddenly the person raised his hand and said: "Enough!, I don't think I am worthy for you". It was a sign of surrender, that person gave up in this fight.
The huge Star Beast just stared at the person with a scornful look, then it turned to the forest and disappeared.
"You guys have worked hard, use this for recovery. Looks like we'll have to find more medium-rank materials to level up." He took out some materials and handed them over to his three Star Beasts.
Astrum slowly disappeared from that location and moved to a different location. At this time he saw the person in the spaceship, sitting staring at the cube with unique carvings.
The person touches the cube and a hologram appears showing 6 pictures of people lined up. Each image does not show a clear face, only a distorted image.
"We've never been together like this for a long time, is there anything serious?" The person asked casually.
"Looks like something very serious is going on, never has the Starian race summoned us all in one place." the person on the far right of the hologram answered.
"Seriously, of course, there seems to be a stir in the Inner Circle." Another voice from the left answered.
"Why should we get involved with the Inner Circle problem? So far they have never considered us at all." The person in the middle was also involved in this discussion.
It wasn't long before another hologram appeared.
"Thank you for being here." Her voice was so clear that it was a woman's voice.
"You must be aware of the turmoil in the Inner Circle. I'm not here to force you to accept this task. Anyone willing to refuse can leave this room and who accepts this mission will receive 100 medium rank materials each."
"Hey, you just gathered us here and already want to kick us out without telling us what to do!". The person in the middle of the protest.
"Looks like the task isn't simple, seeing that you're willing to give us 100 medium rank materials." The person on the far right commented casually.
"If you are willing to hear about this assignment, that means you accept it. I will give some time for those who are not willing to leave this communication room." The woman said firmly.
Hearing the very minimal information, 6 people in the hologram gossip to decide whether to accept this assignment or not. Not long after that several people disappeared from the hologram, which means they did not accept the task and left the communication room.
One of the people who said: "We and you never interfere in things, even now I will not get my hands dirty with your problems". The statement was addressed to the woman and then he disappeared from the hologram screen.
The woman just stayed silent and let them out of the communication room. Currently, there are only 3 people who are willing to listen to the woman's assignment.
After waiting a few seconds, the woman opened the screen. Previously only showing a distorted image, now showing the woman's face.
When Astrum saw this, he realized that the woman was of the Gold Starian race.
After the woman showed her face, the two people in the hologram also did the same. Look at their faces, one with a fat face with lower canines sticking out of his lips and another one with have a very thin face and long like a tree trunk.
"Thank you for accepting this mission." The woman spoke very politely.
"Potta is here and ready" The fat man turned out to be Potta.
"Call me Twig" The skinny man also replied.
"Goren" The owner of the Star beast replied casually.
After they said their respective names, the cube as the center of the hologram glowed and there was an open hole.
"In each of them there are 50 medium rank materials, for the rest you will get after completing the task," said the gold star woman casually.
Goren took something from the cube and saw that what he took was a marble. The marble is a storage media specially made by the Starian race and it seems that the cube can teleport matter.
Goren looked at the marble in amazement, for he had never had such a storage technology; the small object was able to hold 50 medium rank materials and even more.
"You can keep the marbles." The woman said casually after seeing Goren-Twig and Potta's reactions as if the marbles weren't valuable.
"Alright, you've probably heard that there's been a stir within the Inner Circle. I can say that it's not a rumor. Currently, King Chrysus is facing trial."
"Before the results of the trial came out, we were ordered by king Chrysus himself to bring our comrades in Gleas to the Sanctuary."
"Sanctuaries?" Goren surprised to hear the word.
