Chapter 35: 21: A Distant Dream (Thanks to the Alliance Hierarch Xiao Ya who also wants to sleep today)_3
The cobalt-blue long hair shimmered with fine golden light, like stars speckled throughout, giving her face a look that was soft yet firm, and a silver-blue pattern on her forehead, hollow inside, but the radiating lines outlined the contours of starlight, making her exceptionally beautiful.
She listened to the report from the general beside her, then stopped and stood on the suspended walkway inside the space station, overlooking the beautiful planet outside.
"You all may leave now, I wish to stay here for a while."
"Your Highness, this..." Although the general thought it was inappropriate, seeing the expression of the blue-haired woman, he knew he couldn't change her mind, so he slowly withdrew.
As the blue-haired woman turned her head, looking towards Hexia's direction, Hexia also floated over, just as she had anticipated, no one present could see her.
Suddenly, the woman turned her head and looked in Hexia's direction.
"You've arrived."
Hexia didn't have time to respond before the other continued speaking.
"I'm not as powerful as Isenisha; I cannot see your form, only vaguely sense your presence."
"Of course, this is just the remnants of time after all. In real history, I wouldn't know of your existence."
"Your era must be a very, very long time from now, I wonder if the Rose Federation still exists then."
"But if it inevitably leads to disappointment, then let it all end."
"Actually, I'm already treading on the wrong path, and you will witness the tragedy that is about to unfold."
The words of the woman paused, and then she took a deep breath, as if she had made a certain decision.
She beckoned for the awaiting general to come over.
"Your Highness." The general inquired.
"Begin, hand me the activation device."
"But... let us carry the burden of such an act." The general closed his eyes, ordering the soldiers beside him to block the blue-haired woman.
"I, said, let me do it!" Her words echoed through the space station, piercing through the structural layers, resonating directly in the hearts of everyone, and the soldiers who had been blocking her instinctively stopped.
The blue-haired woman took the box from the general's hands, unlocked it right away, then inserted the key card she had been holding in her palm for a long time, and channeled a special magic power into it.
[Key verification correct, passed]
[Aijieka Particle waveform correct, passed]
[Biometric verification, passed]
...
After 27 separate verifications were completed, the second layer of the box flipped open, and a regular sixteen-faced polyhedron rose from within, slowly unfolding in the air.
[Identity monitoring passed, commencing connection to the Revelation]
Above the planet, a majestic triple circle slowly emerged, so holy and yet incredibly imposing. As it appeared, an indescribable fear rose in the hearts of all.
"Activate the 'Annihilation Ritual'!"
[Initiating activation, Aijieka Sea interference ongoing]
[According to the eternal covenant of Loranshia, the Aijieka Sea will recirculate gravitons after this interference...]
[Graviton charging initiated, beginning to lock onto the Star Core's position]
The cold mechanical voice echoed in the hall as everyone intently watched the increasingly luminous triple circle outside in space.
[Star Core locked, commencing focusing and tearing...]
Even though sound couldn't travel through space, the shifting of the planet's continental plates, the ebb and flow of the tides, were still so heartbreaking and inevitable.
After more than ten minutes, the intense tearing eventually fractured the Star Core, and the planet met its destruction. Countless magma spilled from the surface; the dark red core of the planet threw outward relentlessly, countless fragments losing gravitational constraints, starting to drift into space. The space station was also struck by some of the fragments, resulting in violent tremors and beginning to fracture.
In the shaking, nearly shattered space station, the blue-haired woman watched the destroyed planet, tears unceasing, yet she did not leave until the entire planet fragmented, then she moved her hand away from the sixteen-faced polyhedron she had been activating.
[In the year 862 of the Sixth Era, December, in order to annihilate the conservative faction's high command stationed at the gate of the moon before enemy reinforcements could arrive, the Federation first used the Annihilation of Stars Revelation in the civil war. This greatly shattered the power of the conservative faction, re-stabilizing the crumbling battle lines, and earned precious time to regroup the fleet. However, this act also resulted in approximately 1.6 billion innocent Federation residents perishing, forever engraved in history.]
[Years later, after the civil war concluded, 'Cobalt Blue Tears' Emuralin ended her own life at the highest Court of Judgment of the Federation. Yet, a new party was established within the Federation, a faction marked by the cobalt blue tears which, in the following decades, continuously purged corruption within the Federation despite harsh methods, ultimately receiving immense support from many Federation citizens and maintaining nearly a century of clean governance among the senior officials.]
The long-gone events from times past, are now vividly before her eyes.
