The pirate fleet’s furious screams slowly faded as the silver ship continued speeding through space peacefully once more.
Inside the cabin, Garion leaned back in his chair while laughing loudly. "Hahaha! That was a crazy one."
He looked toward Alira with an amused grin. "But seriously... why are you looking so excited right now?"
Alira blinked briefly.
Garion pointed directly at her face. "You look so happy after blasting apart pirate ships."
For the first ti since the battle started, Alira looked slightly awkward. "...Sorry about that."
Garion raised an eyebrow in surprise.
Alira coughed lightly before speaking again. "I’m just... a bit of a weapon fanatic."
A brief silence filled the cabin.
Then Garion suddenly burst into even louder laughter. "Hahahahaha!"
He held his stomach while pointing at her. "I seriously didn’t expect you to be that type of person!"
Alira’s calm and professional image instantly felt completely different now.
Garion grinned widely. "Good. You’re actually way more interesting than I thought."
Alira quietly looked away for a second before returning her attention to the controls. "Enough about that."
The ship’s engines glowed softly as the silver vessel continued moving deeper into space.
Alira calmly operated the control panel again. "Let’s continue the journey."

Inside the damaged pirate flagship, warning alarms continued flashing nonstop.
Several crew mbers were still running around frantically while smoke spread through parts of the ship.
The scarred pirate captain stood silently in front of the shattered screen with a terrifying expression on his face.
Then suddenly... BOOOOM!!!
He slamd his fist into the tal wall hard enough to dent it deeply. "That DAMN woman..."
The surrounding pirates imdiately fell silent.
Nobody dared speak while their captain was in this kind of mood.
The scarred man’s face twisted violently with rage. "To think that I got humiliated... In front of my entire fleet."
One of the pirates hesitated before speaking carefully. "Boss... should we just forget it? That ship clearly isn’t norm-"
"Forget it?!"
The scarred captain instantly grabbed the man by the throat. "You want to forget this humiliation?!"
The pirate trembled in fear imdiately.
The captain threw him aside before turning toward the others. "Contact the other pirate groups imdiately."
The surrounding pirates froze. "Tell them I want information on that silver ship."
His scarred face darkened further. "I don’t care how much it costs."
One of the pirates swallowed nervously. "Boss... are you really planning revenge?"
The captain’s killing intent exploded instantly. "Of course I am."
His eyes looked completely vicious now. "Nobody humiliates the Black Fang Pirates and leaves peacefully."
He slowly turned toward the endless universe outside the ship. "That woman..."
His voice beca colder than ice. "And that laughing bastard beside her..."
A dangerous grin slowly spread across his scarred face. "I’ll make them regret ever humiliating ."

Several hours later, the silver ship finally began slowing down.
Garion, who had been casually staring out the window the entire ti, imdiately noticed the massive planet appearing ahead of them.
His eyes instantly lit up. "Oh?"
The enormous world slowly filled their vision as the ship descended closer.
Violent storms swirled endlessly across the atmosphere while gigantic mountain ranges stretched across the land like ancient scars.
Parts of the planet glowed crimson from volcanic regions, while other areas were frozen beneath endless snowstorms.
Even from space alone, the planet radiated danger.
Garion grinned wider and wider the more he looked at it. "Hahaha... this place really does look insane."
anwhile, Alira calmly operated the controls beside him. "We’re descending."
The ship continued descending through the atmosphere.
VVVVVMMMMMM!!!
The entire vessel shook slightly as flas appeared around the outer hull during atmospheric entry.
Outside the window, Garion could now see enormous flying beasts moving through the clouds.
So looked large enough to swallow buildings whole.
One gigantic creature even roared toward the ship before imdiately fleeing after sensing the vessel’s terrifying aura.
Garion laughed loudly at the sight. "Good! This is exactly the kind of place I wanted!"
Alira glanced at him briefly.
Most people would probably be terrified after seeing this planet for the first ti.
But Garion sohow looked even more excited than before.
Soon, the silver ship finally broke through the thick storm clouds completely.
BOOOOOOM!!!
A massive snowy mountain range appeared beneath them alongside violent thunderstorms and endless forests filled with gigantic beasts.
The ship slowly descended toward a relatively flat area between several mountains.
Then...
VVVMMMM!!!
The silver vessel landed heavily onto the ground, sending dust and snow flying everywhere.
Inside the cabin, Garion imdiately stood up with a massive grin on his face. "Welco... to the new ho of God Gym."
---
The ship’s door slowly opened as freezing wind imdiately rushed inside.
Garion stepped out first, staring at the brutal world around him with a grin full of excitent.
Violent winds roared across the mountains while distant beast cries echoed endlessly throughout the land.
anwhile, Alira walked out behind him calmly.
For a few monts, both of them simply stood there silently.
Then Alira finally spoke. "Is there anything else you need help with before I leave?"
Garion rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "Maybe materials."
Alira nodded once. "What kind?"
Garion turned toward her. "Do you have any [Origins]?"
The mont she heard that word, Alira looked slightly surprised. "[Origins]?"
Garion nodded casually.
Alira crossed her arms while thinking for a mont before replying, "What grade do you want?"
Garion imdiately raised an eyebrow. "There are grades?"
Alira looked at him strangely. "Of course there are."
She calmly explained, "Just like cultivation realms, [Origins] also have classifications."
Then she raised several fingers one by one. "Mortal Grade, Awakened Grade, and Star Grade."
Garion listened quietly.
Alira continued, "Anything above that is far beyond what our territory can casually provide."
She then looked directly at him. "But if it’s Awakened Grade [Origins], we can still help you obtain them."
Garion only nodded, and after saying that, Alira soon went back with the private ship, leaving Garion alone there.
Then he fell silent for a mont while staring toward the violent planet around him.
His eyes gradually narrowed as if thinking deeply about sothing important.
