Maya's communicator rang, and when she picked it up, it turned out to be the Yin Yang Principal contacting her.
"What is it, Principal?" Maya activated the communicator and asked.
"Maya, Sanctuary Base has sent a high-speed hover car to collect the blood samples that are afraid of sunlight," Yin Yang Principal said in a sharp tone.
"Principal, you should contact the infirmary. They should have some of those blood samples stored. Why are you contacting me?" Maya replied somewhat impatiently.
Nearby, Rek and Alice were trying to eavesdrop.
"The issue is your father. He sent word that you must return to Sanctuary Base with the hover car. He wants to celebrate your birthday and arrange your engagement," Yin Yang Principal stated.
"Principal, can't you delay or postpone this matter?" Maya said, sounding displeased.
"It can't be postponed. This time for your engagement, I heard your father has called all the unmarried young men from the *** over. On the surface, it's for your birthday celebration, but in reality, it's to choose a fiancé from among them.
If I delay this, I would be opposing many influential military figures from the Star Alliance Military, which would be quite troublesome," Yin Yang Principal said sharply.
Maya thought for a moment and then said, "Fine, tell the people coming from Sanctuary Base that I will return with the hover car tomorrow morning." After saying that, Maya ended the communication.
Maya looked at her students Rek and Alice standing beside her.
"Teacher has some matters to attend to and will be away from the Super Soldier Academy Fortress for a while.
During this time, you both should train well on your own. Before I leave, I will have Yin Yang Principal arrange for a temporary teacher to cover your classes," Maya told Rek and Alice.
Alice nodded in agreement.
However, Rek decided not to give up. From the communication he just received from the principal, he understood that Maya was going back for a blind date.
In Rek's mind, even if Maya didn't marry him, she shouldn't marry someone else so soon.
"Maya, I'm going back with you," Rek said aloud.
"Why would you come back with me? I'm going to Sanctuary Base, and I have things to do," Maya refused.
Rek confidently stepped forward and said, "Maya, there's no need to explain. I heard clearly from the principal's communication that you're going back to Sanctuary Base for a blind date.
From the looks of it, you don't want to go on that date, and you don't want to marry those strangers you barely know. Just take me back with you and say I'm your boyfriend; that will send those suitors away."
Maya was taken aback by Rek's words. This plan was feasible, but when she looked at Rek's age, he was clearly still too young and obviously just a student.
"No way, I can't take you with me. I'll go back myself; bringing you along won't help at all and might even get you into trouble," Maya insisted.
"Why not?" Rek asked.
"My father isn't joking around. If things go wrong, he might exile you, and you're still too young," Maya replied.
"Those are just excuses; in my opinion, they aren't problems at all," Rek insisted.
"Alright, enough nonsense. I'll give you both a day off today.
After I leave, the Yin Yang Principal will assign a temporary substitute teacher," Maya said, urging Rek and Alice to leave.
Rek and Alice walked along the path in the campus.
"Alice, do you know Maya's identity? Who is her father?" Rek asked Golden-Haired Alice beside him.
"What! Oh my god, I thought you had already figured out her true identity since you got close to Maya before!
I can't believe you don't know anything! Maya's father is Muku Tenmu, one of the three giants of the Star Alliance Military, who has ultimate control over all the armies of the Star Alliance Military in Dark Space.
Muku Tenmu is located at Sanctuary Base in Dark Space.
In previous lives, it was because his daughter Maya was killed by a Dark Golden Ant in the mines that he developed an intense hatred for Alien Species.
After the Alien Horde outbreak, Muku Tenmu led his direct line, the Genetic Mecha Squad, guarding the Spatial Channel and fiercely battling against the Alien Species from Dark Space." Alice said to Rek.
Upon hearing Alice's words, Rek recalled his Previous Life, where he had heard of General Muku Tenmu's name in the news. However, what he truly remembered was that General Muku Tenmu was posthumously honored as a martyr by the Star Alliance Military, and the entire Star Alliance lowered their flags to half-mast.
"Do you know how to stop Maya from getting married? And about her returning to Sanctuary Base for her birthday and matchmaking?" Rek tried to ask Golden-Haired Alice.
"In previous lives, Maya died at Dark Gold Ant Mine around this time and never returned to Sanctuary Base for her birthday or matchmaking. How would I know?
But Rek, I advise you not to get too involved in Maya's future life trajectory. Muku Tenmu, one of the three giants of the Star Alliance Military, is quite ruthless in his actions," Alice warned Rek.
"It's fine. I didn't expect my future Father-in-law to have such power; I'm just a bit surprised. Since Maya is going back to Sanctuary Base for her birthday, I'll accompany her to meet my future Father-in-law Muku Tenmu," Rek replied.
Hearing this, Golden-Haired Alice sighed, knowing she couldn't dissuade Rek.
"Alice, you should head back to your dormitory. I'm going to the Principal's Office to chat with that old guy Yin Yang Principal.
Maya doesn't want me to go with her, but what Maya says doesn't really matter. In this Super Soldier Academy, Yin Yang Principal's words carry the most weight."
Even the high-speed Hover Car sent by Sanctum, as long as the Yin Yang Principal agrees, no one can force me off," Rek said confidently.
Alice shook her head helplessly.
Rek walked towards the Principal's Office.
After more than twenty minutes, he arrived outside the Principal's Office. Rek knocked on the door and pushed it open.
Rek saw the Yin Yang Principal, an old man, combing his hair in front of a mirror.
"Rek! What brings you here?" the Yin Yang Principal said in a harsh voice, having somewhat remembered Rek.
"Principal, I'll be straightforward! I previously asked you to arrange for Maya's Reward to be given to me, but you couldn't do that and instead promised me a knife.
This time, regarding the Dark Space blood fountain incident that feared sunlight, I did save the Super Soldier Academy Fortress.
According to Academy Fortress regulations, those who have made contributions are entitled to corresponding Rewards. This time, I don't want any other Reward; I want to return to Sanctuary Base with Master Muya tomorrow." Rek looked firmly at the Yin Yang Principal as he spoke.
Upon hearing Rek's words, the Yin Yang Principal stopped combing his hair and thought quietly for a few minutes before saying in a peculiar tone, "You and Maya are not suitable; you are still a student while Maya is a mentor. There is a significant age difference between you two, and Maya's father is the Overall Commander of Sanctuary Base—"
The Yin Yang Principal tried to persuade Rek, but he only saw Rek looking at him with a mocking expression, clearly not listening.
