Derick's appearance was still clearly different from that of a Borisin. Seeing him like this, Sunday was finally convinced that these starfarers were indeed from the Xianzhou Alliance.
He imdiately activated his communicator and called out to Derick:
"Commander Derick, I am Sunday, head of the Oak Family from Penacony. I have co this ti searching for the location of the Borisin. Mr. Derick, can you tell where the Borisin are? After this is over, I will reward you greatly, Commander Derick."
Since Derick's starskiff was carrying so many Borisin, he must know their situation very well. Sunday hoped he could get so information about the Borisin from Derick.
Hearing that it was Sunday, Derick was a bit taken aback. He hadn't expected it to be him.
He quickly said to Sunday: "Are you looking for your sister, Robin? She's on the starskiff with right now. We were planning to return to the Xianzhou before contacting you. Since you've co, Mr. Sunday, you can pick her up."
Derick disagreed with what Sunday was doing in Penacony. However, this disagreent didn't cause Derick to be prejudiced against him. At worst, he would just have to stop him in the future. But Derick had no doubt about the sibling bond between Sunday and Robin.
Seeing his anxious expression, Derick didn't waste any more ti and told Sunday about Robin's current situation.
When Derick's words reached Sunday's ears, his whole body couldn't help but tremble.
His sister was really alright! She hadn't beco food for the Borisin; she had been rescued.
Sunday had rushed here more out of his own unwillingness to accept the worst. Logically speaking, any ordinary person who fell into the hands of the Borisin would inevitably beco their food.
Now, soone was telling him his sister was actually fine. If not for Derick's status and power, Sunday wouldn't have dared to believe it. Yet, he desperately hoped that everything Derick said was true.
"Are... are you telling the truth?" Sunday asked, needing confirmation.
"I have no reason to deceive you, Mr. Sunday. Alright, wait a mont. I'll go back and let them know. When Robin cos over, she can tell you the details herself."
After speaking, Derick headed back towards their starskiff.
"Mm..."
Sunday's face was full of anticipation. His heart pounded in his chest, a sign of his extre tension.
Back at the starskiff, the others hadn't been able to hear the conversation between Derick and Sunday because of the distance.
Seeing Derick return, Feixiao tightened her grip on her weapon and said, "What is it? Is the enemy strong? Wait there, your teacher will go with you."
"No, no, that's not an enemy," Derick said to Feixiao.
He looked over at Robin.
"Robin, your brother is here to pick you up."
"Brother!" Robin's face lit up with a delighted surprise.
Feixiao, standing to the side, sighed with a hint of disappointnt. If it was Robin's brother, then there definitely wouldn't be a fight.
"Let's go, we'll take you to him." Derick had the starskiff move toward Sunday's position.
The starskiff flew up to Sunday's vessel. Since Derick's group's starskiff was small, it simply flew directly into the larger ship.
Inside the ship's docking bay, Sunday was already waiting for them impatiently.
As the starskiff's hatch opened, Robin rushed out eagerly.
"Brother!" she called out happily, standing before Sunday.
"Mm." Sunday suppressed his excitent and gave Robin a gentle nod. Now that he could see her, he regained his composure.
"Sister, are you hurt?"
"Not at all, Brother." Robin shook her head gently. She glanced at Derick before replying to Sunday: "Not long after I was captured by those Borisin, Mr. Derick rescued . But because the Xianzhou was at war with the Borisin, I didn't have a chance to leave. We only left after the Xianzhou Alliance dealt with the Borisin."
Derick glanced at Robin, surprised that she would even hide the fact that she had been a Borisin War Chief from her own brother.
While such a small matter wouldn't affect Derick, Robin's concealnt could help Derick avoid a lot of potential trouble.
Sunday also noticed that his sister wasn't telling the whole truth. But nothing was more important than his sister's safe return.
Sunday looked at Derick, his eyes filled with gratitude. He walked up to Derick and said earnestly, "Commander Derick, thank you for saving my sister. If you have any need in the future, please do not hesitate to ask. I would go through fire and water for you."
"There's no need for that..." Derick waved his hand. "I just happened to be there. As for thanks, I heard the Charmony Glee is about to be held. I wonder, might I be able to attend?"
Derick was quite curious about the Charmony Glee. Besides, the power there might help him take that final step and achieve the strength of an Emanator.
If Sunday could do it, then there was no reason he couldn't beco an Emanator, especially since his current power was much greater than Sunday's.
Regarding the situation on Amphoreus, while he could rely on the power of other Emanator-level individuals like his teacher, he would only feel truly secure once he beca an Emanator himself.
From reading the Fla Reaver's mories, although he hadn't finished them all, Derick knew that Amphoreus had so kind of restriction. Even if an Emanator were to attack from the outside, it wouldn't necessarily be able to save the world. It was more likely that it would completely destroy Amphoreus from the outside.
Hearing Derick bring up the Charmony Glee, Sunday hesitated for a mont. But soon after, he nodded in agreent.
"Since you're interested, you will certainly be my most honored guest," Sunday said seriously.
"You're going to the Charmony Glee? Really? That's wonderful!" Robin, listening from the side, showed an expression of excitent and anticipation.
She then blurted out, "When you get there, I'll be sure to give you a grand tour of Penacony."
"Mm, definitely."
Derick nodded.
Sunday watched his sister's expression from the side and had a bad feeling. This kind of expression was very familiar to him.
Although Sunday himself had little experience with romance, being handso and powerful, he certainly had no shortage of admirers and pursuers. He realized that the way his sister looked at Derick was exactly the sa as how those girls who adored him looked at him.
This was not good! Could it be that his sister had fallen for Derick?
A life-saving hero, handso, powerful, high status, and polite to boot...
With all these buffs combined, Sunday couldn't help but suspect his sister's feelings for Derick. What Sunday didn't know was that Derick's image in Robin's eyes had already undergone a complete reversal from hell to heaven.
"Sky-Shattering General, Commander Derick, and the young ladies, you're not in a hurry to return to the Luofu, are you? Why not allow to host you here for a while?"
"Alright!" Feixiao nodded in agreent.
Since there was no fight, having a al was a good alternative.
Derick said to Sunday from the side, "Mr. Sunday, please don't call commander anymore. Just call Derick from now on."
"Very well." Sunday nodded in agreent.
Afterwards, Sunday arranged for mbers of the Oak Family to lead Feixiao, Derick, and the others to rest for a bit.
Watching Derick and the others leave, Robin's gaze followed Derick for a while. Sunday watched this, speechless, thinking to himself that his little sister had finally grown up.
She was already in her twenties; he couldn't very well force her not to fall in love.
Sunday was a doting brother, but not the possessive, controlling type. He maintained a respectful attitude toward his sister's love life.
Especially when he thought about the plan he was executing, it would be good to have soone to help look after his sister if sothing went wrong.
Sunday advised his sister, "While I don't oppose you interacting with Derick, you should still get to know him better. If you really want to be with him, you can use the upcoming Charmony Glee to learn more about him, see what his character is like."
It was one thing to like soone, but throwing herself at him without a second thought was sothing Sunday did not want to see.
Hearing her brother's words, Robin's face instantly blushed. She stamped her high heel lightly and said in a defensive tone, "Brother, what are you talking about? Mr. Derick... he has a girlfriend. Besides, I don't... I don't have any feelings for him like that."
You've practically got 'I like him' written all over your face.
Sunday retorted silently. But his main focus was on what she said before that.
"You're saying Derick has a girlfriend?"
"Yes."
Robin nodded.
"I see. It seems I misunderstood you, sister," Sunday said with a smile.
Then, he imdiately made a decision in his heart. When Derick cos to Penacony, he absolutely cannot let his sister be his guide.
I absolutely cannot let my sister beco the other woman!
Especially not when she knows he's already taken.
Derick's expressions and words showed no such intentions, but he couldn't account for Robin's initiative. Sunday thought that if Robin spent too much ti with Derick, he would surely be unable to resist his sister's charms.
As a top-tier singer in the cosmos, her looks and aura were both exceptionally captivating. Sunday believed that as long as a man wasn't completely dense, no one could resist his sister's active pursuit.
If sothing were to happen, no matter how Derick handled it afterward, Sunday would find it unacceptable.
Sunday was now starting to regret promising to let Derick attend the Charmony Glee.
"I should have just told Derick that all the guest rooms were full and that I'd host him so other ti."
Sunday thought to himself.
But the words had been spoken, and Sunday couldn't go back on his promise.
He could only resolve to find an excuse to prevent his sister from having too much contact with Derick when he arrived in Penacony.
