A secure room was prepared for the portal to be used in the virtual training. There were four fully equipped war robots in this room, where there were four group leaders and a few personnel.
The four humanoid war robots turned their weapons towards the portal door. At the same time, swords appeared in the hands of all four group leaders. When the edges of each sword began to glow in its own color, Intelligence and Security Chief Baran gave the order to his subordinates. "Open the portal gate."

This black hole, which was slowly advancing in a certain orbit in endless space, was approximately 614 light years away from Earth. It was not very large. There were a few each asteroids orbiting the black hole like crumbs left behind after dinner.. In time, these asteroids would also be swallowed by the black hole, but their time had not come yet.
On the face of the medium-sized asteroid in orbit facing the black hole, there was a cave that was impossible to see from the outside. There was a faint flash of light on the steep slope of the cave, and then a door suddenly appeared on this steep slope. The door slowly opened and Chief Baran, who came out of it, took his first step into the asteroid.
He did not have any protective clothing. He released his aura while looking around with his shining sword in his hand and checked a very wide area. There seemed to be no danger, but he still had to check thoroughly. He went out of the cave and used the celestial steps of the north wind to search every part of the asteroid for about half an hour and made sure there were no problems.
…
Chief Baran was a martial supreme like Dean Noyan. While Dean Noyan was at the peak of martial supreme, Chief Baran was in the middle rank. The main goal of every martial supreme is to enter the realm of immortality. And the first skill that needs to be learned for this is the ability to breathe in endless space.
Mana breathing is a technique required for breathing in space. It is also known as the process of obtaining the oxygen the body needs by using the unique pitch-black mana of space. An evolution process occurs due to the filling of a foreign mana into the body, especially the lungs.
The process of assimilating this freezing cold pitch black mana instead of the air that the lungs have always been accustomed to is very painful. It takes centuries for the structure of the lungs to change and become capable of assimilating pitch black mana. But the martial greats have to achieve this somehow. Otherwise, they can never be immortal.
…
When Chief Baran back returned to the entrance of the cave, he turned towards the black hole and watched it for a while. His sworn enemies were there, but he could not go there in his current state. He wanted to demand an account from these enemies who had displaced him, his family, his friends and the rest, and killed most of them, and to make them pay for what they had done.
Hundreds of years had passed since the events, but now, as Chief Baran looked at the black hole, everything started to pass before his eyes as if it had happened yesterday. No matter how angry he got, it was useless. There was nothing he could do. For now...
When his anger finally subsided, he left there and went back to the academy through the portal door. After it was confirmed that the asteroid was safe, work to set up the virtual training room accelerated. Each unit participated in the work using their own staff and technical equipment, and time passed quickly.
...
A month later, Teacher Ayla opened the door and entered the classroom for the first lesson of the new term's virtual education. Instead of going to her desk, she came to the middle of the classroom.
- Good morning, young people. As you know, you will be connected to the virtual education device today. I have shared all the information about virtual education with you in the lessons we have been doing for a month. Therefore, I do not think you will have any problems with your virtual education...
Yes... If you are ready, let's go out and go to the virtual education room.
When the children got up from their seats with enthusiasm and joy, Eiderd could not hold himself back.
- That's it. Now I will show everyone who is really strong. I will remind you what it means for useless peasants like you to stand up to a royal noble like me. Get out of my way, you filthy peasants. Do not dirty the path of your king.
- (Tauriel) I was wondering where this insect sound was coming from. It turns out that our dung beetle king was squealing.
- (Eiderd showed Tauriel his fist clenched. His fist turned red and then flared slightly.) You want to fight? Huh? If you think I can't hit a girl, you're wrong.
- Oh, I'm so scared... What difference does it make if your whole body is completely on fire. Even the flame of a candle is hotter than you... Instead of messing with us, go and collect crap. There's a lot of crap outside. You can roll them and take them to your home...
- (Tauriel was about to say more when Teacher Ayla's voice was heard.) Come on, young people, hurry up.
- (The two of them turned and looked at teacher Ayla. And as teacher Ayla turned away, Eiderd said slowly to Tauriel.) Don't think this ends here, you dirty peasant.
They all left the classroom together and came to the virtual education room on one of the lower floors of the formal education building. This room, which was quite high and wide, had a health room separated by glass partitions on the right side and a section that could be used for general work. When the children's attention was drawn to the four doors with numbers on them on the opposite wall, Teacher Ayla warned them.
- You will use the numbered rooms you see there for your virtual training in a moment. But remember! Since the materials used in the virtual rooms are special, you cannot use your elemental power while in the room. Prepare yourself and trust your physical strength.
Now, we will inject nanobots into your body so that the experiences you will encounter during the virtual training can be processed into your bodies. But don't worry, we will remove them from your body again when your virtual training is complete.
- (Tauriel) Teacher Ayla, I know you said it before, but is it really necessary for us to buy these nanobots?
- Of course it is necessary. As I said before, these bots will give you experience. They are also there to turn the damage you receive during the virtual training into reality. For example, your opponent somehow broke your arm. The nanobot will immediately take action and interfere with your nervous system, preventing you from using your broken arm.
But if you drink the healing potion to heal, then the nanobots will fix your nervous system again and you will be completely healed. You understand, right?
- (Demir) Yes.
- If you are ready, let's go to the health cabin and get your nanobots.
When the group came to the health cabin, Ms. Esin welcomed them. She brought out small tubes containing nanobots that were kept in a refrigerator.
- Tau, come here.
- Yes, Master
Tauriel came forward and approached Ms. Esin. Ms. Esin asked her to extend her right hand and gave information about the side effects she might experience while injecting the nanobots just above her wrist.
- There might be a slight tingling and a small numbness in her fingers for a short while. This situation is not very important. Don't worry, it will pass in a minute, okay?
- Yes, Master.
- The transaction is completed. Now, you have to wait in the resting chairs on the side for about ten minutes. The nanobots we injected will spread to the nervous system in your body. Then you can enter the virtual room. (She didn't forget the children waiting in the back.) You heard that too, didn't you? You will wait ten minutes after the injection process.
Everyone was injected with nanobots in order and they went to rest. Ten minutes later, Teacher Ayla reminded the children when she brought them to the doors of the virtual rooms,
- You may feel a little uncomfortable because the materials in the room will prevent you from using the elements. Don't be nervous and continue moving forward.
I wish you all success. Do the best you can and train your body thoroughly.
Now, everyone choose a door for themselves and go inside...
When Tauriel passed in front of door number one, Eiderd came to the door right next to it. Durualp had taken door number three. When Demir came to the last remaining door, everyone opened their doors with the instructions of Teacher Ayla. Demir stepped inside the opened door with a slight uneasiness in his eyes and a lot of curiosity...
…
When the children entered the portal doors, an anxious wait began among those left in the room. Although it was like just opening the door and entering for the children, this journey would actually take about 25 days. Nothing should have gone wrong.
…
When they escaped from their own world and exited the black hole, their ship was unusable. When the ship was pulled to a safe distance, the automatic repair process began. It was a long wait. When everyone had adjusted to the new reality, they decided to leave the black hole.
But they couldn't go like this. After thinking for a long time, Dean Noyan decided to set up a secret warning and control center on one of the asteroids orbiting the black hole. In this way, he would be informed of any enemies that might come out of the black hole.
He also had to set up a portal inside this base. Because when time passed and they got strong enough, they would use this portal to come back here and return to their homeland more quickly and take their revenge.
Chief Baran objected to the establishment of the portal. Because the other end of the portal would be inside the ship. It was very dangerous to open a passage into the ship they lived in, right in the middle of the clan.
After long discussions, they decided to establish an old-generation portal. Although the warning systems were state-of-the-art, the portal was very old. Thanks to the slow transmission speed of this primitive technology portal, they would have gained time against possible dangers.
…
Chief Baran had checked this transfer process in great detail several times. When he believed that everything was in place and correct, he had allowed the transfer. But now, as he looked towards the portal gates, there was a growing uneasiness inside him.
As he looked towards the portal gates with concern, Chief of Administrative and General Affairs Atay came to him and put his hand on Chief Baran's shoulder and spoke calmly.
- Don't worry, everything is fine. There will be no problems with the transfer. (When there was no change in Chief Baran's gaze, he changed the direction of his speech.)
You checked the system and made sure it was working properly, right? If there was a problem, you wouldn't have allowed the transfer, am I right? Calm down a little now, won't you?
- I know... No matter what we do, everything will be as it should be... But this uneasiness inside me won't go away until the children get there safely...
- …
There was a moment of silence and when both of their gazes turned to the portal doors, Chief Baran said calmly.
- I hope everything goes well...
