Interstellar Age

Erich sat in a command chair, while overlooking the border defenses that existed countless of kilometers away. In an entirely different star system, or should I say in a series of different star systems, Tia had constructed borders defenses, and had done so for years on end. All in preparation for the day, the Naraku Hive Fleet arrived.

The daring strategy Erich had previously employed to defeat the Hive Fleet in his past life would not be used this time around. In Tia's exact words, it would be a colossal waste of resources. Instead, Tia planned to catch the bugs completely off guard.

The moment they jumped into one of the systems, Tia would use her superior scanners to scan the fleet for the hidden Queenship which housed the Naraku Hive Queen. And then she would launch an attack from a drone, which carried what she described as a secret weapon.

What exactly was this secret weapon? A laser so powerful it was capable of punching straight through a planetary core and out the other side. A quick and surgical strike, designed to disrupt the Naraku Hive Mind, and turn the Hive Fleet Against itself.

The other preparations Tia had made, in terms of defenses and military assets was simply in case her surgical strike failed. If that were the case, the Armed forces of this so-called Triple Alliance, which encompassed the militaries of the Germanic Star-Empire, the Great Oni Empire, and the Dvarakian Consortium, would be in for a hell of a fight.

And thus, Erich waited for Tia's command. Soon enough, he heard the familiar voice call out to him from his NeuroLink, which only he could hear.contemporary romance

"Master, they have finally arrived..."

The Terminus Hive Queen sat on her Queenship's throne. She was the spitting image of her little sister who had yet to be born and had quite the smug expression on her pretty face as she gazed upon the fleet that had assembled to intercept them. Her tone was filled with an equal level of contempt as she voiced her thoughts aloud to her subordinates.

"These filthy pests think they can withstand the might of the Great Naraku Race? We will show them what their destiny is, and that is to be devoured by our swarm! Release the- What in the hell is that?"

Before the Naraku Hive Queen could even finish her boast, she noticed a flashing light growing in size not too far away from the Hive Fleet. Where it was coming from, she did not know, but her sensors were raising the alarm at the level of energy that was gathering seemingly out of nowhere. In a panicked tone, Terminus gave the order to raise the shields.

"Raise the Shields!"

But it was too late. The superlaser that Tia had devised specifically to destroy the Queenship had already fired, and its speed was unmatched by the manual calculations of the Naraku. The laser bore straight through the Queenship's defenses, igniting every combustible element of the biotechnology that the Naraku made use of, and killing every single bug inside of the giant explosion.

The attack had happened so suddenly, and from a drone whose stealth capabilities were so high, that any potential observers had completely and utterly failed to detect what had destroyed the Queenship, a flash of light, and a large explosion was the only thing witnessed by any bystanders.lights

Of course, Tia knew exactly what had happened, as did Erich. They had sacrificed an extremely advanced and powerful drone to eliminate the Queenship in a single surgical strike. One that immediately sent the hive fleet into a state of frenzy as they began to attack and devour one another.

With the Hive Fleet's chain of command completely dismantled, Erich gave the order for the nearby Alliance Fleet to sweep in and mop up the remnants of what was supposed to be one of the greatest threats to any single civilization in the galaxy.

Lunaria sat in disbelief as she watched the Naraku Hivefleet get torn apart by the Germanic Star-Empire and its allies. This was a Hive Fleet which had single-handedly destroyed the Rylonain Imperium, and scattered what remained of the Rylonian race against the stars.

For the most part, the galaxy considered the Rylonian Imperium to be among the greatest Sub-Galactic powers in terms of military strength. Though the Alfheim Empress had switched her favor to the Germanic Star-Empire, this did not mean that the Rylonian Imperium would not have been able to best the Germanic Armed Forces in a fight.

Fundamentally, what it came down to was the scale of their militaries. The GSE was at best a Special Forces Sized Unit in comparison to the vast and overwhelming Rylonian Military. While the GSE's military capabilities were elite, they lacked the overall size and logistics to wage war against the Alfheim Dominion's enemies without the support of Lunaria's other vassals.

Nobody suspected the GSE would survive the war with Terminus, and those who did suspected it would only be after a long and brutal conflict. One that would cause half of the Germanic Star-Empire to be devoured by the bugs.

Yet, in a single instance, the GSE turned the tides of war in their favor, and capitalized on it to such an extent that they were able to annihilate a Naraku Hive Fleet with minimal casualties. While this was a Hive Fleet that had already suffered substantial losses at the hands of the Alfheim Fleet, it was still a Hive Fleet, and was something that a regional power like the GSE should not be able to survive without serious consequences.

Because of this, Lunaria and the Galaxy as a whole were now afraid to enter Germanic space, until a reasonable explanation for such a victory could be ascertained, and that was exactly what the Elven beauty planned to do.

Thus, she wore a stern expression on her face, before giving the command to her youngest daughter, Celestia.

"Prepare my personal starship. We are going to Germania..."

Celestia bowed to her royal mother respectfully before responding in a stoic tone to the woman's demands.

"As you command, Royal Mother..."
