Arc 2 – Slag that Interstellar Admiral
Chapter 34

When he was brought back by the mecha, Louis was in a completely unconscious state and after waking up, the first thing he did was to compare the gene on it with the gene database. His subordinates had asked him whose genes he was comparing, and he only said that it belonged to a hostage who had not yet been saved and didn’t say anything else. So apart from Louis, no one else knew that Shao Ze’an might be Louis’s lifesaver.

Now that this matter had been proven to be false, there was no need to tell them.

Louis however still found it strange, but he couldn’t put a finger to it. After another three or four hours, Chi Zhao who was beginning to feel drowsy again heard someone call out to him, “Wake up, we’re here.”

Chi Zhao opened his eyes, his blurry gaze falling onto the figure before him. After seeing clearly who that person was, Chi Zhao finally completely woke up.

Louis didn’t miss that moment of vigilance in his eyes and that strange feeling inside him grew even more. Louis lightly frowned and said again, “We’re here at the main star. Can you get up?”

Chi Zhao nodded, pulled away the sheets and slowly got out of bed.

The minor procedure Morris had done didn’t bring any harm to Shao Ze’an’s body, but it had a certain impact on his nerves. Chi Zhao himself didn’t feel any severe pain, but his body had been desperately sending out SOS signals and his muscles were inevitably tense. Even after resting in the treatment capsule, he still felt stiff, as if every cell in his body was extremely tired.

Chi Zhao walked slowly. Louis also slowly accompanied him. Chi Zhao pursed his lips and suddenly stopped.

He seemed unhappy.

“I didn’t save you, so you don’t need to be so good to me Mister West. You are the highest ranked officer in this ship. At this moment, you should be standing in the command room, not by my side.”

Louis was about half a head taller than him. With such a height difference, he needed to look down slightly to look at the young man. There were no fluctuations in his voice, “Regardless of whether you’ve saved me or not, I am treating you like this because I wasn’t able to save you in time. It’s was because of me that you were imprisoned for such a long time. This is undoubtedly my fault.”

Hearing his words, Chi Zhao was non-committal, “If you want to atone, do as you please. Anyway, as I have already said, I don’t need you to treat me so politely.”

With his show of concern being regarded as atonement and what he had said with the intention to show goodwill being taken as an act of politeness, Louis felt a little depressed inside. His face and the corners of his lips fell as he walked out with Shao Ze’an.

Before, he had given Shao Ze’an the label of a proud young master but now he gave him another label; moody. He wondered if the other young masters also have this problem.

The answer was naturally no. Chi Zhao was purely afraid that he, like Li Yihan, wouldn’t play his cards according to the usual routine, once again destroying the character and plot he had worked so hard on, so he did his best to speak with thorns in his words.

Exiting the ship, his older brother Shao Zelin was already waiting. When he saw Shao Ze’an come out, he took a few steps forward. Despite also being a soldier, Shao Zelin’s eyes were much colder than Louis’s, but Chi Zhao could also see deep concern in them.

“How do you feel?”

Chi Zhao didn’t look at him. They are family so Shao Zelin would easily see the change in the soul in his brother’s body. Chi Zhao planned to use the stimulation from this incident as an excuse for his change in temperament and then slowly change the Shao family’s impression of him.

“I’m alright. Let’s go.”

His younger brother seemed a little different from before. Shao Zelin frowned as he stared at him for a while but when he remembered where he had just returned from, he felt that it could explain this change in him. After a short moment of silence, he nodded, “Let’s go.”

The place where they had stopped at was the Mission Port. Only imperial soldiers can enter and leave this place, so the eldest son was sent to pick him up instead of Shao Ze’an’s parents. In fact, they are in the hospital at this moment waiting for their youngest son to arrive to give him a thorough examination.

The two took a few steps before noticing that someone was following behind. The two turned their heads at the same time but if you looked more closely, you would notice Chi Zhao turning his head around a little earlier.

Shao Ze’an didn’t speak. It was Shao Zelin who spoke, “Admiral West, do you still need something?”

Louis stood in place, his deep gaze quietly stopping on Shao Ze’an. Hearing the question, he looked at Shao Zelin, his expression returning to his usual official and stern look, “No. That’s all for today. I will personally visit the residence another day to give my apologies.”

Shao Zelin nodded and turned to leave with his brother.

Louis stood there watching them leave and didn’t make any attempt to follow.

The rest of the journey was very quiet with no one saying anything unnecessary. Morris sat in his seat, poking his forehead with the back of his electronic pen. He couldn’t help but laugh, “This is very interesting……”

Chi Zhao now has some psychological shadow left from Morris. Although he had won some freedom for himself, Morris still had complete control of his life. He had to do whatever he says and all he could do was to change some minor details. He was in no position to disobey any of Morris’s orders.

It wasn’t fun being a puppet. Chi Zhao frowned irritably and leaned back against the chair, closing his eyes to rest his eyes.

Shao Zelin turned and glanced at his younger brother. He felt troubled inside.

The only thing that could make Lieutenant General Shao feel troubled, was the prestigious Madam Shao.

In the Royal Hospital, several highly respected experts were invited over to examine the official’s young son. They were all waiting quietly in the waiting room at this moment. Hearing the sound of the door opening, everyone looked over. Before they could see what the legendary second young master of the Shao family with a normal person’s body looked like, the usually reserved Madam Shao had immediately rushed over. She nervously checked Shao Ze’an up and down, “My dear son, you scared your mum to death! Are you okay? Did those rebels do anything to you?!”

Perhaps it was because of the body’s memory itself, the moment Chi Zhao saw her, he thought of his own mother. Ever since he had entered this world, his nerves had been tensed but he felt that he could now finally relax. His voice unconsciously carried a hint of grievance, “……Mum.”

Madam Shao could tell that her youngest son had been mistreated. She immediately hugged Chi Zhao in distress, patting him on the back, “It’s okay, it’s okay. You’re home now. Mum will not let those people get away with it. I’ll definitely pay them back double.”

An unsmiling official stood on the side. Although he seemed calm, he was actually no less worried than his wife. When he heard that Shao Ze’an was caught by the rebels, he was so panicked, he almost collapsed. At this very moment, he was very excited to see his son, but he didn’t show it. He walked over to his son and said awkwardly, “Dad too.”

That line was spoken too late, confusing the people there in the process. After some thought, it was understood that his line was to supplement Madam Shao’s lines. The official received some silent stares from the people around them. In order to relieve the embarrassment, he shifted his attention to his older son who had been silently standing to the side.

Shao Zelin and his father stared at each other for a long time. He then finally pursed his lips together and said, “……..Yeah, brother too.”

After some reassurance, Chi Zhao was led by several experts to get an examination. Sitting in a device that looked very futuristic, Chi Zhao wondered, “Are Morris’s inventions really that good? In such a big hospital, they couldn’t even find those two devices in my body?”

【Don’t forget, his laboratory could even block the scanning rays from an S-grade mecha. If the laboratory could be hidden, two small devices shouldn’t be an issue.】

Chi Zhao understood, “You mean, these two devices also have a shielding function?”

【Yes.】

Chi Zhao was speechless, “Then wouldn’t that mean that no one will be able to find my implanted devices?”

【Of course. Why did you think it took such a long time for the others to find out about it?】

Chi Zhao still found it strange. Was Morris really so powerful such that his own inventions far surpassed the technology of the entire empire? This hospital was the Royal Hospital and the most talented doctors in the galaxy as well as the most advanced equipment are here. Could there really be no one else who could be his opponent?

Just as he wondered this, Morris suddenly spoke, “There is a purple space capsule shaped examination machine. Try to avoid being examined by that one.”

Chi Zhao raised his eyes and looked around the room. In the distance, there was a purple machine and two doctors stood next to it discussing with each other, “Should we check his myosin response too?”

The other looked at him like he suggested something unnecessary, “No need. Those measurements will only change with burns. Young Master Shao has no burns so there is no need to test it.”

“I was just suggesting. Didn’t Madam Shao say it earlier? She wanted everything to be checked. Why don’t we…….”

As the two discussed, they would glance at the purple machine from time to time. Chi Zhao understood now. Turns out, Morris wasn’t omnipotent. That myo something something could detect the abnormalities in his body.

Chi Zhao looked over at the two doctors and walked over. He said to them, “Excuse me, is the examination over? I want to go home and rest.”

The doctor who insisted on making Chi Zhao also have this check done opened his mouth to speak but he was interrupted by the other one, “Ah, it’s all done now. The results will be out soon. You can go out first. We will take the results and find you in a bit.”

Chi Zhao smiled politely at him and walked out.

The results of the examination naturally showed no abnormalities. Even so, Madam Shao didn’t feel reassured. Once home, she immediately coaxed her younger son into bed and ordered him to rest. As for college, she called and asked for a week off. To Madam Shao, studies weren’t important at all. The most important thing was her son’s wellbeing.

After lying in bed for a while, Morris’s voice sounded again.

Chi Zhao found it a little annoying. He was like a fly, always appearing when he didn’t want to be disturbed!

Seeing Chi Zhao’s unhappy expression, the system quickly placated him, encouraging him to endure. Chi Zhao silently endured. Morris said a whole bunch of grandiose words and then talked about something he couldn’t understand. Finally, once he had finished setting everything up, he moved onto the main topic.

“Now Young Master Ze’an. You should complete my first task for you.”

Chi Zhao’s eyelids were originally dropping, almost falling asleep listening to Morris’s rambling. Hearing those words, he instantly became more energetic. Chi Zhao’s heart pounded. He did his best to restrain his excitement. He pretended to speak calmly, his voice faintly trembling, “What task?”

Morris: “……..” Did he hear wrong? Why did he seem to hear some eagerness in his voice?

After a moment of silence, Morris smiled again, “The task is, to do everything possible to be married to the admiral ——– Louis West.”
