Chapter 466: Arriving
Brilliant galaxies were suspended in the universe like fish in an endless sea. Their colors varied, as did their sizes, but flying between them really made one understand how inconsequentially tiny they were in the grand scheme of things.
Galaxies, however, were not as far apart as Jack had expected. They were clustered together. Unlike stars, which were tiny dots compared to the massive distances separating them, galaxies were more like neighboring islands. Sure, there were gaps in between, but sometimes the gaps were smaller than the galaxies themselves.
Their starship was like a tiny fish crossing a dense archipelago.
“Enjoying the view?” a voice came behind Jack, startling him. He looked away from the large window and towards the new arrival—Starhair, the peak B-Grade Envoy whose hair resembled rivers of stars. The man walked beside Jack and gazed out the window.
This starship wasn’t too small. There were various rooms and compartments. Right now, Jack and Starhair were alone.
“It’s nice,” Jack replied. “Better than looking at the other wall, which is just metal.”
Starhair didn’t laugh. Jack frowned.
“Is something the matter?” he asked.
“Nothing much. I just don’t understand why we had to waste a month to escort a C-Grade.”
