The Number One Star in the Interstellar Era Chapter 208 - MY BROTHER WISHED TO COME HERE

Chapter 208 - MY BROTHER WISHED TO COME HERE

ASTRID stared at his brother's furrowed brows and felt amused. It seemed that the good opinion Reas had about Wulfric only extend to the latter's ability as a soldier and a general. But when it came to Astrid meeting Wulfric, Reas was still very adamant about it.
"Well, I have a… situation. It kind of needed the help of someone from the military. The higher their position, the faster it would be solved. And since, you know, the prince was your trainer for the past week, I just thought that maybe he was there. And that maybe he could help," he explained in a very vague way.
Because if he directly said what really happened, Reas would definitely be shocked. Then, he would needlessly worry. He might even scold him for being reckless. And he really didn't have any time for that right now since he was probably only half an hour away from reaching the Imperial Military Academy.
Reas looked suspiciously at his brother when he heard what the other just said. It was very vague and didn't really tell him anything. Then, he noticed a figure lying on the backseat behind Astrid. His suspiciousness just increased.
"You did not accidentally kill anyone, right?"
Astrid stopped and then laughed out loud. He knew his brother was joking. It was quite funny because the other said it in a way that anyone who didn't know him well enough would think that he's serious.
"Just tell me if the prince is still there," he just said instead. "If he is, can you ask if I can go there and have an audience with him? It would be best if there wouldn't be too many people around." When he saw Reas' frown became even deeper, he just went for the kill. He blinked his eyes at him and said in a sweet voice, "Please?"
Hearing this 'please', how could Reas not agree? So, even though he was still curious and suspicious as to what really happened, he said that he would try to find the general and that he would contact him again once he did. They temporarily ended the call and he went to find the general.
The opening ceremony just ended, the other probably hadn't left the academy yet. But he was probably about to leave soon. So, the most likely place he would be right now was one of the academy's parking lots. The one which only VIPs were allowed to use. So, he ran towards there.
Even though he still had no idea why his brother wanted the help of someone from the military, he could see that Astrid was in a hurry. Even if his brother didn't say that directly, he could still see it on his expression.
When Reas reached the said parking lot, he saw that the general was about to board an aircraft. Following behind him was the gruff looking, red-head captain who helped them once during their one-week training. If he remembered correctly, his name was Slade Elmer.
He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that they hadn't left yet.
"Sir!" he called.
Having a high-level physique, the two quickly reacted to his call and looked back at his direction.
When Wulfric saw Reas, he unconsciously frowned. Because he had no idea why the other suddenly called him.
Slade saw this frown and thought that the general was annoyed. So, he asked, "Do you want me to send him back?"
"No," Wulfric said.
It's because he suddenly remembered what Hildred said. That Reas would be meeting Aster. What if because he did a damn good job of making a good impression, the kid now wanted to invite him to have lunch with them? He felt excited at the thought.
He had been reading and looking for news about Aster for the past few days on [Cyberspace]. The latest one he found was about the rumor that Aster was filming something on FS08. Some kind of filming studio planet.
On the post he had been following concerning that, there was a lot of speculation. They said that it might be for a movie. In which some refuted, saying that it's too soon for Aster to show up for one. Of course, there would be some who said otherwise. That if it's only for a very small role, then, there's nothing wrong with that.
Then, there were some who said that it was probably for a web drama since a lot of that was being filmed at FS08. Most people also agreed on that opinion.
They tagged Polaris to ask about Aster. Wulfric actually also did the same. The thought of contacting Grant Fleming directly and asking him directly about it even crossed his mind. He stopped just in time before his sense totally leave him. But that didn't mean that he would stop tagging Polaris.
He was doing it under a username anyway. He might as well go unhinged. But still, there wasn't any announcement yet from Polaris about Aster. Which was really frustrating and irritating as hell.
His thoughts were cut off when Reas finally reached them.
"Do you need something?" he asked.
He might have a normal expression on his face, but deep inside, his excitement was already rising exponentially because of the thought that he might meet Aster.
Wulfric must have thought that he was being stealthy in covering up what he's feeling but anyone who knew him closely would definitely have noticed it. And Slade was one of the few who would be able to.
He wondered what got their captain so excited? He turned to the teenager who just walked up to them. Was it because of this kid? Could it be that the captain wanted to recruit him to their army?
When he heard the general's question, Reas suddenly had no idea how he should answer. Because he also didn't know what was the exact situation. But he thought, once he mentioned his brother, the general would probably help without a question. That didn't really sit well with him. But it would be really helpful in this situation, so, he just went for it and said whatever.
"Sir, my brother wished to come here and meet you, would it be alright for him to do that?"
