"Master, what happened to you? Why did you…act like that? Is it some mental attack?"

Varian slumped on a couch and shook his head. "No. It\'s purely physical. It\'s like…my body, my instincts were acting."

Closing his eyes, Varian recalled the feeling of revulsion. It reminded him of the dark days he wished to never go back to.

"Master, let me conduct a full-body scan." Boo didn\'t wait for Varian\'s approval and did its thing. "Phew. There\'s no abnormality."

Seeing Boo sigh in relief, Varian didn\'t know whether to laugh or cry. "I just had some abnormal reaction."

"Your body is safe and since you said your mind is also safe, you didn\'t receive any damage," Boo stated. "Then we can think of countermeasures."

Varian nodded.

He was interested in this \'abnormal\' reaction of his body. But more important than that was solving the current mess.

Varian looked at Enigma through the special glass window and was at a loss for words.

Betrayal. Near-death. Rescue.

\'I wonder if she can take it.\' Varian pitied her and turned to Boo. "Are their comms taken care of?"

"Yep. No one can track u—"

Boom!

Boo\'s assurance didn\'t end and the ghost ship shook violently.

Varian turned on the monitoring and gasped.

Ghostship already left earth and was wandering in the region between moon and planetoids.

They avoided the patrol routes.

Yet…

Almost 100 patrol ships were coming from them.

The attack just now as the blast of a fire lotus condensed by a level 8 awakener.

And in less than a second, dozens of such attacks—fire lotuses, ice thorns, lightning bolts, and earth hammers were created.

"Gulp." Varian swallowed his saliva and yelled. "Boo!"

"Going!"

Ghostship sped up in an instant and left behind the patrol shuttles.

The location they were previously at was now a blend of fireworks as even space shook violently.

"Son of a …" Varian exhaled and gazed at Boo. "You were saying something about not being tracked."

"Ah? Did I? Must be my system error. Ahahaha." Boo laughed awkwardly.

"Expand your radar and watch out," Varian instructed.

Having left behind the patrol shuttles due to its superior speed, Ghostship won a few minutes of peace.

Until a group of patrol ships a dozen thousand miles away from them suddenly started rushing towards them.

Varian wanted to flip the table.

"There\'s no way these guys aren\'t tracking us."

Ghostship was known for its stealth. There\'s no way current human technology had any chance of detecting them.

That meant…Varian turned to the healing room and his face showed a troubled expression. "One of these has a tracker which escaped your full body scan, Boo."

Boo was silent for a few seconds before replying. "Could also be treasure, master."

"Hm."

"Maybe we can put Blue Flash on an asteroid and check if the tracker is on her?"

From a purely rational perspective, it was the best choice.

Since Varian\'s goal was saving Enigma and not Blue Flash. It was a 50% chance to get rid of the chase.

Sure, Ghostship was faster than them and wouldn\'t be caught.

But!

Now, anywhere ghost ship goes, the whole federation would know.

If nothing was done, then forget about sneaking into secretive areas, ghost ship and by extension, Varian wouldn\'t even be able to \'stop\' anywhere. They would have to keep running because once they stop, they\'d be caught up.

A 50% chance to reduce this situation was very tempting.

If it was before, Varian would\'ve thought it through seriously. But after hearing Kyle\'s name from her, Varian didn\'t consider abandoning her.

At least not until he confirmed her relationship with Kyle.

If it was the same Kyle, then fine, he\'d not throw her out.

If it wasn\'t, then…

"Boo, speed up their treatment." Varian rubbed his forehead.

In the next fifteen minutes, they attracted the attention of space patrol four times.

Varian was, understandably pissed. This was the first time the Ghost ship\'s stealth was utterly useless.

"Just when I thought Valos\' shit is over, this happened." Varian downed the wine rather furiously as he muttered with an annoyed face.

Another reason for his annoyance, something he wasn\'t willing to delve deeper was his abnormal reaction towards Enigma.

The fact that he had no control over it pissed him off.

Despite drinking wine like water, he couldn\'t get drunk. To him, it was really equivalent to water, just flavored.

Thankfully, being sober helped him think through a solution.

"I can use my body and mind powers to restrain those instincts. Though, training for it will be a pain…"

The solution didn\'t really help his mood though. He was only temporarily fixing the issue and not solving the underlying problem.

Even then, he\'d probably not have enough time due to Enigma\'s issue.

"These days, I might go on a rampage. Destiny, Fate, or whatever it is, it\'s fucking with me." Varian clenched his fist.

"If destiny is a guy, I\'ll really kick him in the balls." He vowed.

"What if it\'s a woman?" Boo titled its head in confusion.

"Ovaries," Varian replied without hesitation. "Hail Gender Equality."

"…ok." Boo nodded with a strange face and said. "It\'s not like destiny is conspiring against you with an evil grin, right? It only happens in old age movies, master."

Varian fell silent. Boo thought it was because he agreed with its words. The truth was the opposite.

\'System, are you behind this as well? Enigma, my abnormal reaction and ghost ship\'s info leak?\'

[…Host, you should stop pushing everything on this system.

You destroyed your bed while taking a nap, who was responsible?

Or you keep cursing your junior high principal with beautiful civil words as he made fun of your dream, was it also the system\'s plan?]

"Well," Varian scratched his cheek with an embarrassed smile.

"We can actually forge—"

[And your wet dreams about—]
