Chapter 125: I\'ll Come With Just In Case
Liz was back inside her room, seated on her bed.
Holding her folded legs with her arms, she wondered.
‘Am I supposed to feel jealous? No… The whole thing is already weird so…’
Remembering the scene, she blushed, and let her curled-up body fall to the side.
‘I… Don’t know…’

“Taking a shower? Now? When we’re on this goddamn planet?”
“Oh, shut up.” Rea rolled her eyes and let out a sigh. “What do you want me to do about it, Jay?”She had just gotten dressed after taking a long shower, and was walking towards the command room.
“We should already be-”
“By the way, shut up.”
“Ha?”
“I have some dirt on you, so you’d better stay silent.”
Jay grimaced, but remained silent.
‘What’s that supposed to mean?’
Rea sighed again as she entered the command room.
She thought that taking a shower would have made it pass, but it didn’t.
Remembering the Paru’s member and the feeling of having it inside of her…
‘I can’t wait for everyone to go to sleep… I seriously…’

‘Should I ask him to take another shower with me…?’ Raya asked herself, seated on a stool in the laboratory. ‘Or should I invite him to my room… Or should I just go to his?’
She made the stool below spin around as she wondered.
‘I can’t get my mind off of it… Off of him… Will it end like it did before, or will it… Go inside of me…?’ Raya blushed and shook her head. ‘No, there’s no way I can take that inside of me! But then… Hmm…’

Unfortunately, not everyone was in a good mood.
While the three couldn’t get him out of their minds, this wasn’t the case for all of the female Worka.
Through his strength and abilities, the possibility of the mission’s failure had greatly decreased.
Still,
“Fuck… Fuck… Fuck!” Roka cursed as she slammed her fist against the desk.
She was inside her room, having opted to remain in there as the meeting had been delayed.
“An outsider was fighting… Fighting for our mission and people while I was standing around inside… Pathetic… It’s…” She muttered through her clenched teeth. “It’s pathetic! While Liz and him were fighting, I stayed in here… I never should have done that! I should have been fighting with them, if not in their place! I’m the Commander of this… I should be the one…”
Roka held her hands to her face.
Her gaze was stuck to the wall in front of her.
“Fuck…” She cursed.
Tears started to rise from her expressionless face, but she didn’t allow them to flow down.
“I need to do something…”

Rea’s voice resonated throughout the spaceship.
About two hours had passed.
Answering the Navigator’s call, the crewmates assembled inside the command room.
“Want to come with?” The Paru whispered after kissing Rani’s shoulder.
“Waa…” She exclaimed, letting her body fall onto the mattress below.
“Alright.” He chuckled and started walking away.
The female Granilith waved, causing him to let out another chuckle.
The Paru hadn’t gotten any sleep in.
Still, he felt rested.
[Endurance Points: 810/1420.]
‘Good enough.’ The Paru nodded as he walked up the stairs. ‘Let’s see what this meeting is about…’
…
“Ha? But we just came back. Of course, we need to rest!” Liz argued.
“We can’t stay here forever. We need to move quickly.” Al muttered.
“We’ll be able to make it as long as we don’t take unnecessary risks.” Raya shrugged.
“Getting it back isn’t an unnecessary risk. Supplies, weapons, and countless things we brought exactly to combat Visero are in there.” Jay explained. “It’s the-”
“I disagree.” Rea interrupted. “We should go for the Tsero Crystal right away. Keeping fuel in mind, we can’t go to where the other ship is, move this ship if we’re attacked, and go back to the Tyl. Starting it up uses too much fuel. We can only turn it on twice. One of them being to go back to Tyl.” She turned around to face the rest of the crewmates. “Either we keep the ability to run, or we go to the other ship.”
“Serolia doesn’t have the fuel we need for the ship, so we can’t forage for it…” Kris whispered. “We should keep it for escaping then.”
The crewmates’ arguing grew louder as they failed to reach an agreement.
Liz suggested that it should be put to a vote, but all disagreed.
One side wanted to prioritize safety, while the other wanted to prioritize victory.
Neither wanted to put it to a vote. Their lives were on the line after all.
‘Just because more agree with the dumb option doesn’t mean I want to go with that!’
The Paru’s gaze silently moved from one crewmate to the other.
‘Hm…’
Liz was standing next to him, and would blush a bit every time their gazes met.
She asked for his opinion often, but none seemed to find that strange.
‘Going to the old ship would make it easier. If those lightning rods and EMPs or whatever can keep lightning from hitting Giganto Zillas, then the fights would be simpler. But if a Giganto Zilla’s charge can’t be stopped, it’ll get to the ship… Let alone if there are multiple ones approaching… If we don’t take the ship to the location of the lost one, then we’ll have to bring the supplies and machinery over. Even for me, that’ll be tough…’
Since the crewmates couldn’t come to an agreement, the meeting was adjourned.
The fact that anything they decided to do would need to be delayed anyways, because both Liz and the Paru were in need of rest, made adjourning easier.
The Paru’s eyes lingered on Roka, the Commander, who had adjourned the meeting.
She had remained silent throughout all of it.
…
“Are you sure about this?” Bak asked, his gaze moving from right to left.
“Just open it up.” Roka ordered, holding the weapons in her hands tight.
The ramp was lowered, and Roka exited the spaceship.
“I’ll go take what I need from the lost ship… Then bring the Tsero Crystal!” She muttered to herself after taking a deep breath in.
‘I hope you succeed…’ The invisible Paru walking half a dozen steps behind her thought to himself. ‘I’ll come with just in case.’
