"This is impossible!"
Big Bear Squadron Leader nearly smashed the bottle in his hand.
It was absolutely preposterous!
Even if he sold the entire Jiu Defense Company to some rich idiot willing to pay a sky-high price, he still wouldn't be able to afford a Crystal Jet.
Even if he could afford it, the manufacturers that only take sovereign customization contracts may not be willing to accept this order. Crystal Jets are only made to order; there are no mass-produced models; and in the customization field, it is entirely a seller's market with extremely high entry barriers.
And even if they did accept a customization, no one would be able to pilot it.
Not even Chekhov would be qualified; he just didn't make the cut.
The Sky Knights capable of piloting Crystal Jets were, in a sense, no longer bound by the flesh of mortals; they were monsters.
