Chapter 8 - 8

- It's just information. – Rihaine replied.

- The one that is an excellent book: in it, everything is described in detail, it would be where each troop is positioned and how the battles take place. Rihaine said.

- Very didactic. Taurus said.

"On the contrary, that's exactly what I'm not interested in," Rihain began to explain.

- Even so, what do you mean, it can change? - Taurus questioned him.

- So, do you want to simply see how the races that exist in that galaxy kill?... - Rihaine questioned him.

- A slacker like you shouldn't fight so well. Rihaine said.

- I let them kill themselves first. Taurus said.

- So, look, in 2023 there was a volunteer here, a Martian, it seems. Taurus said.

The enemy forces were in ambush, so it had been a few days since the Martian and another army had been campaigning with us, in which he wore a blue cape…, but then they killed the boy. Rihaine said.

- He was very flashy, he was flustered, he was seen, I hid, I let the fire go down. Taurus said.

- So, here, my dear, nobody is surprised by anything, I'm still alive, with my tricks, my treacherous plans. Taurus said.

- I may even be ashamed later, but the misunderstanding that the captain had of my intention, I did not try to dissuade him. Taurus said.

- So, man, your dead superior, was brave? – Rihaine questioned him.

- You know that the gods of the pantheon of the Um-Mu sect is witness. Taurus said.

-This alien was always ahead; where there was fighting, there he was. – Until he was thrown in front of armies like cannon fodder. Taurus said.

- Correction, you played him to attack from the rear. Rohaine said.

- I surprised them and attacked them from behind, I invaded their fields, with a private army, I surrendered them, when I only surprised them. Taurus said.

- So, you don't look like you were brave at all. Rohaine said.

- He was braver than you. Rohaine said.

- No, simply, if you play on the battlefield without a plan, and where you're not called doesn't mean you're brave… - Taurus said.

- After all, what do you understand by brave? Taurus said.

- Brave, brave? - General Rohain repeated with the air of a person who, for the first time, asks himself such a question.

- What I understand by brave is the one who behaves as he should and is not afraid to protect the weakest. – Rohaine replied after thinking a bit.

- So, I'm a brave man, I don't delay in defending the weakest, so, playing the fools in the field of war, after all, there was no weak one and neither who should I protect, everyone there could do it alone. Taurus said.

That's when Rohain remembered that Galactic General Platum who defined the synonym of courage, such as the knowledge of what is necessary and not necessary to fear, even if it was what happened around them, in which despite the Galactic General's age and vagueness of the definition of the captain.

When I found that the fundamental idea of both was not as different as it might seem, and that the captain's definition was even more correct than that of the sage of the galactic empire.

All this because, if he could express himself as Galactic General Platum, he would certainly say that the brave is the one who fears only what needs to be feared, and not what is not necessary to be feared.

I felt like explaining my idea to the captain, but at least he left me without any belief that he would understand, even so, maybe give it a try.

By that time, Rohaine was entering a disbelief complex about him.

- Yeah, well, yeah. - Rohaine said. − It seems to me that in every dangerous situation there is a choice, when you make a choice under the influence, for example. - He said.

- Following the feeling of duty is courage, and the choice made under the influence of a low feeling is cowardice; therefore, a man who, out of vanity.

- Even if it is out of curiosity, or out of greed, he risks his own life cannot be called courageous and, on the contrary, a man who, under the influence of a pure family feeling

- Using it like this, with your struggle and with your feeling of responsibility or simply of belief, you renounce a danger that cannot be called a coward – Rohaine said.

The captain looked at me with a strange expression as I spoke.

- You know that I don't have an answer for that, nor can I say, as for the rest. - Taurus replied, filling his pipe.

- Even though we have a junkier 3 here who likes to philosophize like this. Go talk to him. He also writes poems.

I only met the captain in the Galactic Army of the Cassian Empire, but I had already heard of him in the Galactic Colony of the Sian Empire, when his mother, Malta Kolovkpa Novnakoi, wife of a lord of one of the businessmen who finance some empires allied with the gentry of a galactic empire, in which he lives two versts4 from a territory near one of my galactic fortresses.

It was just before I left for the stars, I was recruited and allied myself with the government, I took it upon myself to defend it, in a struggle, with the march I started, it was entailed with the destruction of a congress of the galactic supreme court of empire Ucra, that's when I became part of the galactic army of the Cassian empire, I was in its headquarters of the galactic station, allied with the old woman, of a council, in which she was very happy because I was going to see her Shepaken.

Even so, as she called the grizzled old captain he didn't know why.

It would be a memory of an ancient galactic empire that is still alive, where I could talk to him about his mother's daily life and give him a package.

Sometime after eating an excellent fruit pie and slices of dried fish, Mariana Bavilaniarioba went to her room and came back with a very large cyan blue scapular attached to a black silk ribbon.

- When you take this Priestess of the traditional empire that was made of burning bush wood. - The priestess said.

When some time after kissing the image that represented the galactic alliance being the image of the Beast from the end of the temple of Zarathanis and placing it in my hand.

- So, do what you are ordered, in which you can hand him this. – The general said.

Seeing that at that time, with the aim that no one agreed with the seizure of power, that's when he went to the Cassian empire's galactic army.

Leaving for another part of the galaxy on the other side of the empire.

- So, I sent the galactic forces that could start the cult of conversion, in addition to the promises they made when they won the war, they were with the promise that, if he stayed alive and safe, I would order this little picture of the Beast of the end of the temple of Zarathanis.

In which it has been eighteen years since the Protector and guardians of Zarathanis' armies, in which none of the soldiers have mercy on their enemies.

Those who haven't been hurt even once and look like they've been in battles I don't even tell you about! …

In which everyone went to the galactic temples.

It was when Mikhailo, who was with him, told me, that my hair stood on end!

When I found out everything about him, it was only through the others, in which he, my darling, does not write to me about his campaigns... he's afraid of scaring, which was contradictory considering the origin of the dark beings.

When he was already inserted in the galactic army of the empire, it was when I learned about the armies of the Cassian empire, in which I learned, but not from the captain himself, that he had been seriously wounded four times.

These situations were more than obvious, just as he had not written to his mother about the campaigns, nor had he told her about his wounds.

- From now on, you must always carry this protection totem with you to wars, as a way to protect your armour.

So, she said, when she said it, that is when she went on with her speech. "I will give him my protection.

When that said, in which the Holy Warrior Priestess and Protector will protect you!

So, from that moment on, when he had to always carry it with him, especially in battle. Tell him, my dear, this is your mother's command.

I promised to fulfil the mission literally. – He said to his confidant.

- How much do I know about what you will like about my Shepakens. – The priestess who wielded her forges, in which she used the ancient totems.

- Yes, it looks so interesting, he is sympathy personified. - The woman said in her direction.

- So, believe me, not a year goes by that you do not send me money, and contributions for the war, as well as supplies for the homeless of the war. – They said.
