After the battle had ended and Lucilia, along with the others, retreated into a nearby star system, everyone took a deep breath of relief.
"Status Report!" Rumia said, ordering on the bridge.
"Light damage to Hull; shields are at about 45% and will need time to repair; otherwise, we're good to go." One of the bridge hands said.
"Good...at least we can keep moving." Rumia said. "What should we do, Princess?"
Lucilia was sitting on her throne. "We continue with the plan and set course towards Nyflona."
"Yes ma'am!" Rumia said.
The trip was fairly quick, as Nyflona was in a nearby star system.
"Good job today, everyone!" Ren said as the pilots all gathered. Mission was a success, and their side didn't suffer any losses, only a few minor injuries among the ship.
"You too, Ren!" Scarlet cheered.
"Ren!" Ashastha yelled, running inside. "I'm starting to get tired of not fighting with you. When we land on this new planet, I'm coming with!"
"I..." Ren said before being interrupted. "
"This isn't negotiable. Besides, as a Queen, I must meet the Queen on this planet; it's only right." Ashastha said.
"I'm not against it; you should come, along with the others from Versaerth." Ren said.
"Good." Ashastha said with a smile.
"By the way." Ren said before turning his head. "That was an amazing job, Serenity."
"Yay! Praise me more!" Serenity said cheerfully.
Ren smiled before patting her head which made Serenity smile.
"Next time I want more than just head pats Ren..." Serenity said teasing.
"U-Uh I...." Ren stuttered nervously.
"I'm not kidding, Ren~" Serenity once again teased.
"G-Got it..." Ren said.
"Wow, she's forward..." Scarlet said after watching what had just happened.
"I guess she's tired of waiting." Lily replied.
"Speaking off, Eleonora...when are you going too...you know." Scarlet said, teasingly.
Eleonora blushed "We haven't even been on a real date yet!"
"So once you go on a date, then..." Scarlet said. "Here that, Ren, you gotta buy her dinner first."
"I was going to do that anyway." Ren replied. "I'm a gentleman, after all."
Soon, the announcer of the ship came on.
"We are arriving at the Nyflona system in an estimated 40 minutes. All hands prepare for landing."
"Seems like we're nearly there." Lily said.
"I'm excited about going to an entire new planet. This is awesome!" Scarlet said excitingly.
"Well...it would be if they weren't fighting a three-way civil war." Ren chimed in.
"Booo buzzkill." Scarlet teased.
"I'll head to the bridge and talk to Lucilia. You guys should get ready." Ren said.
"Alright, what should we bring?" Eleonora asked.
"I...don't know. I've never been to this planet, so I don't know what the environment and the weather are like. Might wanna make sure you bring some pants though; we will be near a jungle after all." Ren said.
"I hope it's not hot because I'd rather not sweat like crazy..." Lily said.
Ren walked towards the bridge, and Lucilia smiled upon seeing him.
"Welcome back!" Lucilia said. "Good job out there."
"Thanks, everyone really pulled their own weight." Ren said. "So we're near the new planet?"
"Yup." Lucilia responded. "Nyflona, when we get near the planet, we're called in to say that we're arriving. Our first stop will be with the Queen of Nyflona."
"What's she like?" Ren asked.
"Well...just don't disrespect her, and everything will be fine." Lucilia said.
"Sounds fair enough." Ren said.
"Also Ren...?" Lucilia said, looking at Ren in the eyes.
"Yes?" Ren asked, confused.
"Try not to make her daughters fall for you; for some reason, you just attract royalty." Lucilia said.
"That's not true!" Ren said.
"Me, Ashastha, my sister Octavia, possibly my sister Sienna, who knows about Aurelia, and not to mention Queen Tsukiko's daughters...maybe even Tsukiko herself, I don't know anymore." Lucilia said listing everyone for Ren.
"I....okay you may have a point." Ren said, sighing in defeat.
"Thought so." Lucilia said, with a smile. "Anyway, wanna wait with me until everyone arrives?"
"Is that even a question? Of course I'll wait with you, although I may have to get a shower..." Ren said.
"Well, we can both do that; let's head to your room!" Lucilia said with a blush on her face.
"This isn't going to be a normal shower, is it?"
