A Core Ship From The Start

It was at that moment, Dada Niel learned that his ancestor was a Merchant Voyager. He traveled aboard something called a "Warship," flying back and forth in the Universe, vaster than any ocean, and his world was just a small planet amongst it all......

Since then, Dada Niel’s mindset changed. For him, being a Prince or an Emperor no longer held any meaning. He wanted to be like his ancestors, to venture into space, explore the unknown, and expand the star map in the name of The Emperor!

Dada Niel got lucky; using those materials, he discovered an old, broken-down Warship in an abandoned, long-forgotten repair factory. Of course, Dada Niel had no understanding of this thing, but fortunately, the factory still had sealed Mecha Servants. After waking them up, Dada Niel gradually learned about the Warship.

So he made a decision: to repair this old, broken Warship, then head into space and become a Merchant Voyager just like his ancestor!

Initially, Dada Niel longed for the help of the Royal Family, but to others, it was merely an ancient legend. They were more interested in power struggles than exploring the Star Sky. Moreover, they viewed Dada Niel as a strange, mentally challenged Prince.

Dada Niel had no interest in the throne, but the calm was disrupted by the windy strife; other Princes tried to eliminate their rivals, and naturally, Dada Niel was among them. They even fabricated charges, claiming Dada Niel was lured by the Devil, had turned into a symbol of evil, and needed to be imprisoned and secretly executed to prevent him from spreading absurd ideas.

Upon learning all this, Dada Niel finally made a decision. He gathered a group of like-minded individuals and, before his other brothers could act, escaped to the repair factory, started the repaired Warship, and directly left the planet, beginning his life as a Merchant Voyager.

Of course, dreams are beautiful, but reality is harsh. Dada Niel quickly discovered that the Universe posed far more threats than the Royal City. He was once kidnapped by local natives, encountered Alien Monsters attacks, and even pirates. Several years passed with ups and downs, and Dada Niel’s situation couldn’t be described as good; at best, he was barely making a living in the Universe.

There were even times when Dada Niel thought how dangerous the Universe was and considered going back home or finding a random planet to live a stable life. Yet the longing for his ancestor made him grit his teeth and persist.

Until one day, during a pirate attack, he encountered the Tribunal......
