Volume IV - Chapter 54: An Escaped Captive

I slowly and calmly entered my room, the room where, as the highest-ranking person in Caleuche, I could control everything.

It was a large room. Inside, my assistants and a few staff members were tinkering with the ship's control mechanisms and giving instructions. They could control most things on the holographic screens in front of them, and they could do it just by thinking. They didn't even need to move their bodies in any way.

At his words, everyone else in the room stopped what they were doing for a moment and turned to me. They bowed their heads in the same way.

I raised my hand and nodded in acknowledgment of their respect for me, and everyone went back to their work.

I took a deep breath, moved toward my seat, and let myself sink into it. I closed my eyes, trying to ignore all the noises around me.
