A week had passed since Alexander got swallowed by a veil tear and things had never been the same since.
The academy, with the help of the Orbital Guards, had performed several deep space scans and had yet to pick up Alex's signal.
"I'm afraid the boy is nowhere near the empire's territory. Even with the help we solicited from the other regions and sectors, all the scans came back negative.
"I think—"
The operator wanted to say, but the principal stopped him with a raised hand.
"Keep searching and don't stop until you find something, even if it would take a year."
She received clear instructions to find the golden boy, dead or alive, and she intended to do just that.
"Yes, ma'am."
When the academy students learnt of the reason behind the emergence of the veil tear and the subsequence disappearance of Alex, they were shaken to the core.
"To think this planet nearly got destroyed because of the reckless actions of one student."
