CHAPTER 193: NOVA CAPITAL

As Hanse talked about various matters in the universe, they soon arrived at the Customs Office.

"Little Hanse, you’re here. Are these two Cosmic Elites?"

"Your eye is indeed sharp Lady Sasha! this is Leo, and this is Noir, a Seeded talent," Hanse said, introducing them.

"Oh, what talented children! Come, follow me. I’ll register your identities." Sasha said, motioning the two.

Feeling the unfathomable pressure, they nodded obediently, following her inside a dome-shaped building.

"Your names?"

"I’m Leo Vantrel."

"Noir."

She input their names into a spheroid floating machine dotted with runic language.

As metallic tokens emerged from the machine, Sasha clapped her hands.

"Done. These are your identification seals. When you’re out in public in the Nova Capital, you must wear them at all times. Otherwise, the planetary defense weapons will disintegrate you into pieces."

Handing them the seals, Sasha explained that they could transform the metal into any accessory.

Listening to her words, Nash turned his into an earring and fastened it to himself.

With the process complete, Hanse said goodbye to Sasha and led them back to the ship.

"Who was that lady? She seemed so strong," Leo asked curiously as they walked.

"That’s Supreme General Sasha, one of the twelve Supreme Generals of the Nova Army," Hanse said respectfully.

"A Supreme General? Isn’t that a title only a War God can hold?"

"That’s right..."

"Oh." Realizing he had just brushed past a legendary War God, Leo felt a surge of disbelief.

Nash, too, had an epiphany, quickly setting the parameters for a War God in the runic space.

Since it was his first time meeting a War God, his runic detection had only registered a string of question marks.

---

Back at the ship, Nash stayed in the cockpit, eager to see firsthand what the Capital of the Nova Sector truly was.

Passing through the barricade of planetary weapons, they soon entered the heart of the Nova Sector.

Looking at the screen, Nash and Leo were a little fascinated.

The planetary system in the Nova Capital didn’t rely on one star but three large stars rotating around each other.

In the surrounding space, over three hundred planets orbited together in a stable formation.

Each planet was encircled by a planetary ring to control and maintain its rotation in harmony with the three suns.

To further counteract the complex gravity, the space was filled with various spherical objects.

These spherical objects were the space void anchors that stabilize the gravitational system and prevent any fluctuation in space.

Without such an artificial stabilization, such a dense Planetary System would tear itself apart.

"How is it? Did the Nova Capital broadened your horizons?"

"It’s indeed amazing..." Nash and Leo nodded in unison.

This was just the capital of the Nova Sector. What more could there be in the various Domains or the Capital of the Chronos Empire? What kind of scenery might they witness in such places?

Too stunned to speak, they didn’t notice they had already landed on one of the planets.

"We’re here. Auralis I, the main training planet for Seeded Talents," Hanse said, looking at Nash.

"What about Leo?"

"Don’t worry, I’ll take him later. Auralis I to Auralis X are for you Seeded Talents. The other Cosmic Elites train elsewhere."

"I see."

Nodding, Nash stood and followed Hanse outside.

Leo, equally curious, trailed behind.

Soon, as the hatch opened, Nash was greeted by a fresh breeze, calming his body and soul.

Unlike the metallic jungle Nash had imagined, the place brimmed with a vibrant atmosphere that seemed to soothe his soul.

"Although this is a training facility, it’s mainly the residence for you Seeded Talents. Naturally, the environment couldn’t be lacking," Hanse said with a hint of envy.

With ten planets dedicated to their training, even Hanse, a Tier 6 War Emperor, felt envious.

Every piece of land in the Nova Capital was precious, yet ten planets only served hundreds of individuals, which was too extravagant.

"I see. It seems the treatment of Seeded Talents isn’t bad." Nash smiled.

"Not bad?" Hanse, feeling speechless, just guided Nash to formally register at the facility.

Using his identification seal, Nash’s identity was quickly processed, allowing him to move freely between Auralis I and Auralis X.

The identification seal is also connected to the main network of the Auralis Planets, granting him access to a full map for navigation.

"Alright, that’s all I can do for you. If you don’t understand anything, ask the people in charge of the Auralis Planets," Hanse said, preparing to take Leo back to the ship.

But before they could leave, a group of students slowly approached them.

"Camilla?" Nash spotted a familiar face.

"You! Why didn’t you tell me you arrived in the Nova Capital? If I hadn’t received the notification from the Auralis system, I wouldn’t have known!" Camilla lunged into his arms, complaining.

"I forgot..." Nash smiled apologetically.

Too busy with training, he hadn’t even realized they had arrived at the Nova Capital.

"Tsk, as always," Camilla clicked her tongue, familiar with Nash’s nature.

"Since you already have friends here, I’ll leave," Hanse said, bidding them goodbye.

"Hmm, see you later, General Hanse."

"Goodbye, Brother!" Leo also waved.

"Good. I’ll contact you later."

As they walked away, Nash finally had time to look towards others beside Camilla.

Spotting a familiar woman and the group around her, Nash felt a chill in his heart.

"The Nova Academy Squad? Natasha? I didn’t expect you’d come all the way here to welcome me."

"Haha, it seems you remember us well." Natasha smirked, clenching her fist.

Recalling their previous encounter, where she’d been powerless because of Nash’s virtualization, Natasha’s fist tightened.

"Captain! Don’t!"

Unfortunately, it was too late. Before Camilla could react, Natasha lunged at Nash’s annoying mask, aiming to punch it off.

Having anticipated Natasha’s revenge, Nash had already donned and activated the Tier 4 runic armor given to him.

With his runic body activated, Natasha’s movement trajectory became crystal clear in his eyes.

Pushing the runic armor to its limits, Nash stepped to the side, cleanly dodging Natasha’s attack.
