Galaxy Wars: The Legacy of Light and Darkness

Chapter 65: Rigo's Cunning Move

James' decision was harsh, he knew that, but he also knew he couldn't waste any more time here. He had to improvise to escape this death sentence, or else everything he did would be in vain.

He glanced at Dora, as her face showed the expression of horror. He wanted to comfort her but he didn't. He knew there were some friends of her on that cruiser, and speaking right now might compromise his plan to his enemy.

After all, the two remaining spies belonged to Ricaro, and so he wouldn't risk revealing his plan to him so soon. The issue was the time when Ricaro would realize something was off at Dora's ship.

Ricaro was someone who was feared not by James alone but also by the Immortal and the traitor. He was someone that could laugh at your face this moment and stab your heart in the next then continue his daily routine like nothing had happened.

Dealing with such a person would be harsh, especially his reaction couldn't be anticipated. James feared his reaction to the killing of his men, would he realize the role of James on this? Or would he think Dora's men did it?

'Tell me what ability could you use to help me here?'

This was the only safe route for James and Dora right now, so James asked his scepter hoping to hear something good.

'You could have guessed it on your own, that's disappointing.'

The scepter reply wasn't expected by James, as he didn't say anything for a couple of moments before realizing his scepter was criticizing him.

'Does your shame have no limit? What the hell have you done to me so far so you can be disappointed? If you don't reply directly and straight right now then I will order my man to throw your scepter in the middle of the ongoing battle!'

James was really furios of this scepter. So far all he got from it was some promises and no more. He was now on the brink of death, so he needed that scepter to act, and this must be really useful.

'Ok, I will tell you although I hoped you would find it out yourself. My ability is just like the one I'm exercising on you right now,' the scepter said.

'Is it a paralytic ability?' James asked with astonishment, as this ability didn't pass his mind even for once.

'Yes, but paralyzing three strong individuals like them with their strong weapons isn't an easy feat. All I can do is to buy you some time, limited time actually,' the scepter replied.

'So the problem here is about the time you can provide for me to paralyze them. how much can you hold the three of them motionless then? Please don't tell me it's one second or two second, or else I prefer to die here rather than humiliating myself with some useless scepter like you.'

James got used to his scepter bad responses, so he was prepared for the worst. For him to escape, he needed to untie Dora first, then the two would move rapidly towards the hole where the small cruiser would be waiting.

Then the two would board the cruiser, and escape rapidly away from here. so, the effect of his scepter must be enough for all of this to happen. He gave himself two minutes to do all that, and so anything lower than that would be risky.

'I can paralyze them for one minute, and that will be with the help of my brother.'

James wasn't satisfied by the response of this scepter. He needed more time, especially when considering the fact these people could chase him in this space.

The time must be enough for the small cruiser to pull off some distance away from here. He didn't forget how the three of them managed to return to a rapidly moving large cruiser in a matter of minutes.

'Didn't you say you will absorb these weapons to merge with your brother?' James asked as he noticed that his scepter neglected this part.

'Yes, but I need four weapons, not three. Absorbing three would only make us rise from grade three to grade three plus. That isn't a big boost to our strength.'

The scepter words were logic, but he missed the point here. James didn't ask for them to be fully upgraded, he asked that to eliminate one source of trouble.

'If you can't be fully upgraded, at least you will get some boast and those three wouldn't be able to threaten my escaping cruiser from far.'

'Ok, but believe it or not, those people must have more weapons in their hands. these weapons could be weaker than the ones in their hands, but they could also threaten your cruiser nonetheless.'

That meant everything he planned for was compromised with these three. James was realistic, he knew he couldn't kill them. if he had the strength to do it, he wouldn't hesitate to do so, but he knew he wasn't a match to any of them.

During all this, the three were still busy with their word battle. Each one of them was trying to secure his post, gain more benefits, and put the other two in a more disadvantageous position.

All this was going smoothly and very calm until Rigo moved. As James expected, Rigo was a ruthless humanoid, or else he wouldn't be the leader of his war elite droids.

In less than five minutes, Rigo managed to slain many of Dora's followers, including the two spies who belonged to Ricaro.

Rigo was really cunning, as he changed his clothes with the clothes of Anna, so for those who died under his hand, Anna was the one who did it, not him.

He did that to add more fuel to the fire, and luckily this changed the course of events here.

"Are you out of your mind? Why is your spy wreaking havoc in the little cruiser? Have you already formed an alliance with that bitch? Are you crazy?!"

Suddenly and out of nowhere the tone of Ricaro changed from the calm and steady words into this explosive and aggressive one. The other two exchanged silent glances before Dora's mother spoke first:

"Then I now knew who killed my spy, he was one of yours after all. I should have expected that."

"What are you saying? My spy was killed on the hands of a stranger that wasn't part of Dora's crew," the Immortal said just after Dora's mother.

"Are you two trying to trick me? do you think I will believe this nonsense?" Ricaro yelled angrily
