Chapter 236: Detective Sunny
Sunny lay stretched out along one of the circular booth seats in the party car, data pad resting flat on his stomach, gently glowing. As the only person who ever sticks around here, the party car was quiet as usual.
Sunny scrolled the data pad with one lazy finger.
"Historians often start the planetary history of Jarilo-VI from the War of the Gods..."
He stared with dubious belief.
’Right. Because calling it a war between people doesn’t sell as well.’
He turned slightly, resting his head on one arm, thumb flicking downward.
"...the eleven Perun States and the Veles Union Army scorched the land..."
"...an early spring completely changed the fortunes of war..."
Interestingly enough, Jarilo was the name of their imaginary spring war god. To those ancient people — who must have been a technologically underdeveloped civilization created from a resource-starved offshoot of humans — then this might as well have been divine intervention.
Sunny stared at the word Jarilo for a few seconds longer than he meant to.
Then moved on.
