Chapter 135: VOL 2 - 80: Moon walk.
The group of masters, disciple, and maid appeared with a flash above the moon that just minutes before Erik had been gazing at with longing. Upon arrival, the runes on Erik's suit gently illuminated, instantly generating something akin to an invisible force field around him, keeping him safe from the void while simultaneously allowing him to breathe normally.
Visibly euphoric, like a child in an amusement park, Erik looked in wonder at the ground beneath his feet, which appeared as a canvas of fine, gray dust that stretched out in gentle undulations toward the horizon—a horizon that looked much closer and displayed a curvature that was incredibly evident to the naked eye, with craters of various sizes dotting the surface, almost like indelible scars recounting the history of countless impacts the moon had suffered throughout its existence.
In the distance, the planet Aranta hung in the sky like an orb of vibrant blues and greens, surrounded by a halo of white atmospheric light—a breathtaking and moving spectacle, especially for Erik, who scanned his surroundings with excitement. This sight brought affectionate smiles to Seraphina, Eleonora, and Sigrún; they truly missed seeing him act so adorably—a behavior that only emerged when he was faced with something "new".
Although for beings of their level, the void of space posed no challenge—and they only donned their suits to match their beloved Erik—the three women nevertheless activated them in order to create a suitable environment for their dear Erik to enjoy his "space adventure" in the best possible way.
"This is fascinating..."
Almost dazed as he surveyed his surroundings, Erik softly remarked. The sound of his voice reached the three women despite the void of space thanks to their suits—even though, in truth, they didn't really need them to communicate; they were simply very important for setting the mood.
"So, what are you waiting for? Let's begin your first 'space exploration'."
Sigrún said with a loving smile. Erik nodded excitedly and stepped forward, but the excitement on his face soon turned to a slightly troubled expression as he realized that the gravity he felt was the same as that of the University planet.
"Fufufu"
Imagining what was going through the mind of her beloved disciple by his expression, Eleonora let out a small, amused giggle from her beautiful lips before gently touching Erik's suit. At that moment, she added cheerfully.
"The gravitational simulation functions are now deactivated."
