Zenith, Royal Palace Throne room.

"Your majesty, they are almost here," States Aila as she holds a broom. It looks like she was sweeping the floor before this.

"Really? I'd better get prepared," exclaimed the Queen who was reading a novel.

She got up from her throne and went to her room, "Aila! Help me dress!“ she orders.

"Yes, your majesty" Aila responded as she followed her.

At the TSS Explorer.

At the cafeteria, Gonzalez sat in his usual place along with Yang, or 'Yatz'.

"Well, we're arriving at Zenith in about… 3 hours, it's been quite the journey," Yang said.

"Should I refer to you as Yang, Ritz, or Yatz? I'm still confused about your name," Gonzalez changed the topic for a moment.

".. Just.. Call me Yang," Yang Answered.

"Okay, then what's up with that maid girl that got bitch slapped?" Gonzalez asked.

"Isn't there a better way to call 'knocked unconscious'? Anyways, she still hasn't woken up yet," Yang replied.

"But she's alive, yeah?"

"She is, yes, "

"Then we'll ask her about this galaxy, the nation states located within it, and the average people's lives here," Gonzalez suggested to Yang.

"Provided that they are educated enough, we don't want a repeat of Iklor," Yang added, crossing his arms.

"Shit, you're right," Gonzalez clicked his tongue, "speaking of, did you know that Earth was attacked by terrorists?"

"Yeah, it happened 3 Terran days ago right?" Yang's face became serious.

It came as shocking news to all on board the explorer, the space elevator at Earth or Terra, whatever you wanna call it, was bombed by presumably Brers rebels. But Yang had guessed that the Anarchists did it, the government probably already knew it as well. In addition to the space elevator, the Terran space station, located in orbit of Terra, housing over 400 million people, was bombed as well. Causing several hundreds billions of dollars in damage.

"Yeah, public order is shit back home right now. Riots and protests everywhere," Gonzalez said nonchalantly as he sipped his carbonated soda.

"Well, I just hope that my family is safe from the ongoing upheaval,"

"Same here,"

Yang hoped that the problems back home would be resolved quickly, so the republic wouldn't disintegrate. Otherwise, it would be a nightmare. If the third Galactic power were to suddenly disintegrate overnight, it would cause massive irreparable damage to the galaxy. The galactic economy would further collapse, and it would cause wars on the old territories of the republic. Not that the other great powers are in a position to wage wars right now.

"That reminds me. Julius, what about the other great powers?“ Yang asked Julius Gonzalez.

“ About what?" Gonzalez questioned.

"What are their reaction to the bombings?"

"As far as I know, indifference," He said as he put down his soda can, "they are in their own crisis right now"

"Damn, the war took a toll on everybody didn't it?" Yang dryly laughed.

"No shit, It's a fuckin 7 millenia long war with pauses in between, of course people are upset, "

"Anyways, we'd better look up on that girl," Yang said as he looked at his watch.

"Yeah, you're right," Said Gonzalez as he got up, "Wait, isn't that watch super expensive?"

Yang stood up and said, "it's a bootleg," With a straight face.

"Where… Am I?"

I woke up in a white room, and in a nice bed too.

The last thing I remembered was that I escaped the elven ship into the human ship. Then when I was exploring it, I went unconscious for some reason.

Humans!

They are just like me!

We were exiled to the great void for our 'crimes'. Maybe the exiles have returned to exact revenge?!

I need to tell the king of humans to save our kind which are still enslaved all over the holy realm!

But first, I need to escape and find a way to tell him.

I got out of bed and stood straight, dusting off my maid dress. Although the dress is a sign of servitude, I like the design and how it really suits me.

I looked around and spotted what seemed to be a door. I went up to it and tried to open it, but It doesn't seem to open no matter how much I tried. Then I noticed a box with small buttons on the side of the door. They're numbered 1 to .. 0?

Curiously, I slowly pressed them. When I pressed for the fourth time, I got jumped by a voice from somewhere, "access denied"

After recovering from the shock, I continued to press the buttons randomly. Until I gave up. Just now I noticed that on top of the small box, there is a flat area which doesn't do anything.

"Why won't you just open!!" I angrily screamed while pounding at the door.

Suddenly, the door opened.. Sideways? It disappeared upwards. I then fell forwards and I expected a pain to appear, but my fall was cushioned by something, no, someone.

"Damn, Julius. I wish I were you right now, but fortunately I am a faithful husband" The man standing said. He's wearing rounded glasses, is he a scholar of some sorts? I dismissed that assumption after seeing his uniform, clearly a military uniform. A white with gray patterns and a coat of arms of a flower.

My thoughts were interrupted by someone wiggling in the bottom of me. I quickly stood up after realizing that I was suffocating him.

The man groggily stood up, and took heavy breaths. The man is wearing a military uniform also, but with a huge difference. This man is wearing a more formal uniform than the other guy. His uniform is dark blue with a white leggings, he also wears a peaked cap while the other man doesn't.

"Man.. That was rougher than being pummeled by ion cannons." He muttered.

"Um.. Hi?" I spoke out to them.

"See look I practiced my othergalactic language.. *Ahem*, what is your name?" He asked me.

"Dima.." I answered him shyly. I don't know whether I could trust them at all, they look eerily similar in attitude and the way they dress to the elven nobles who would do horrific things to us..

"Uhh… how did you get in?" He stuttered. The other man looked on to us in amusement.

"... I was escaping,"

"From what?"

"..From..everything"

Yang and Gonzalez exited from the infirmary after questioning Dima the maid. They got some very interesting information and disturbing ones as well.

“Okay, to recap. This galaxy is called the Holy realm for some reason. There are about 6 major nations.. Or realms.. in the galaxy, the Elven realm, the Beastmen realm, the Demon realm, the Dragon realm, and finally, Utopia.” Gonzalez said.

“You know, I never expected a religious organization to become the GUN of sorts for this galaxy. With literal gods controlling it” said Yang as he corrected his glasses.

“Yeah surely that won't go wrong at all.” Gonzalez replied sarcastically.

“Also, apparently, Humans are enslaved here.” Yang said with a worried expression.

“Yeah that would be a problem…. For the government! Because our mission here is only to establish diplomatic relations and some wee bit insignificant-ish imperialism.”

"As if all the problems back home aren't enough, we have to add another one."

"Also, isn't the GUN reorganized? I heard that a post-war session would commence some time soon"

"Yeah, the governments got a lot right now."

"Alright, let's get prepared to meet royalty"

Surface of planet Zenith, capital world of the elven realm.

The duo, along with Madelyn and Hawk landed on planet Zenith. After a short descent using a smaller spacecraft, they managed to land safely.

Yang wore an army uniform, while Gonzalez wore a more formal captain's uniform. Both Hawk and Madelyn wore black business suits with a red tie and a polka dot tie respectively.

When the doors opened, they were greeted by a crowd of people, and a military band playing music. As they descend from the spacecraft, they are greeted by a regal person befitting royalty, flanked by two people. Hawk notices that this is the queen and shakes hands with her.

"Your majesty, we are the Terran delegates. We come in peace, and the milkdromeda galaxy says it's hello. "

While this is happening, someone is watching in a not so far position with a burning hatred.
