Chapter 71: C71 Shores Of Respite

"You know that he might not regain his past lives memmories at all"

War said not understanding why the others were loosing their minds.

"I say we just sit back, relax and see how this all plays out"

War completely unbothered by the current state of affairs said as she plopped her ass onto her throne and closed her eyes.

...

As Nole with black eye bags under his bloodshot eyes who had been pulling all nighters to sell off what he couldn't transfer to Nova Roma and packing up what he could Into his personal fleet of airplanes stepped out of his CH-47 Chinook.

The first thing that caught his eyes apart from the harsh sunglight hitting his eyes was the Thraen passenger airplane and the disembarking from It Thraens.

"From comments online It seems like everyone In this batch is ex military..."

The equally tired Lisa commented on the side after unbuckling her safety belt like every other member of Noles company who decided to join the Imperium with or without their families.

Of course a large number of those who wanted didn't pass TAI0 and Hans Inspection as for those who did most of them decided to bring their families too but it was decided that theyre families would have to wait before the necessary infrastructure such as schools and etc was built.

After all so far the Island housed only Infrastructure of military nature.

Only for the cosmic marines squads commander who had accompanied Nole because of Dracula's orders to speak up after he removed his fully enclosed helmet causing the pressured air to leak out.

"You heard It right all of them will be joining Militaris so as you"

The man with a grosteque scar running through his right healthy dark crimson eye and buzz cut gray hair said as he stuck a ciggarrete between his pale lips and light it up.

"Huh? Were also gonna be part of Militaris?"

The surprised Noles asked because he thought he'd be just transferring his company to the Imperium and will remain a civilian.

"Well of course the R&D department Is part of Militaris what did you think was going to happen?"

The Terran asked as he breathed out a mouth full of smoke.

"I see..."

Nole murmured to himself as he watched his fleet of airplanes land on the tarmac one after another.

"Ofcourse I might be misunderstanding our Imperators Intentions but what I can guarantee Is that he will never allow a company that he has no direct control over to exist In the Imperium"

The Terran added while shrugging his shoulders only for his earpieces which were directly linked to his fully enclosed helmet to crackle to life.

"Imperiale civis Ksum follow me the Imperator wants to have a word with you"

The squad commander barked as he spit out his ciggarrete and stomped on It while putting on his helmet which sealed and pressurized Itself Immediately.

...

The sun beat down on the pristine beach, casting a golden glow over the sparkling waves.

I reclined on my beach foldable bed, clad only in my boxers, enjoying the warmth on my skin and the refreshing taste of a cold specially made beer straight out of the beaches bars fridge which was as strong as Thraes vodka.

Beside me, WolfIn his standart Issue service uniform provided me with the latest updates on our operations.

"Imperator, the final batch of Thraen recruits had finally arrived a few minutes ago"

Wolf reported, his tone serious despite the casual setting.

"Anynthing to report regarding their Identities check, medical examinations and augmentations so far?"

I asked as I took another sip of my beer.

"Nothing of worthy for now Imperator, there Is one report of Interest but until those two can confirm It..."

Wolf explained only to get cut off by me.

"Got It, tell me about It then you have a concrete answer for me... go on"

I reminded Wolf as I took another sip.

"Our spare resources Imperator, despite the local production we are quickly running out of them, we need to secure large sums of more if we want to stay on schedule for constructing the space lift."

I nodded, acknowledging the gravity of the situation.

Building the space lift was essential for my long-term plans, and any delay could have serious repercussions.

"Those fossils should be waking up by now If they administered our serums the moment they returned..."

I mused while subconciuosly scratching my necks grosteque barbed wire scar which for some reason was becoming more I her by the day which shouldn't possible because of my brains augmentations.

"... contact them, It's about time we started collecting and If they try to vezale their way out of It, well I don't have to explain to you what you have to do, do I Wolf?"

I asked while smirking evilly.

"No Imperator, our men have been quite bored lately..."

Wolf didn't finish his words because he didn't need to.

"And what's the status on Nova Romas construction efforts?"

I asked.

"Our construction is at 97 percent completion. Our military Installations are done, with defense weapons emplacements, factories, and other essential facilities all completed only the Imperiale palatium Isn't finished yet but at this rate It won't take long"

Wolf reported In one breath.

"Good, dismissed"

I said while wawing my hand as I did Wolf did just that.

"Ave Dracula"

Wolf declared as he performed a modern military salute and after that left.

Satisfied with the progress, I allowed myself to relax fully into the moment.

Around me, my off-duty soldiers, NCOs, and officers reveled in the rare opportunity for leisure.

Clad in their black boxers, they frolicked in the sand, playing beach ball, swimming, and surfing with abandon all the while displaying their superhuman abilities.

One of my cosmic marines easily jumped three meters and heavily smacked the ball with his right palm.

Another cosmic marine failed to reach the bullet like ball by a width of his fingertips causing It to embed itself Into the sand while the first cosmic marine fell down.

Causing his legs to sink In while dust rose Into the air and the ground trembled slightly.

Afterall we masses of pure muscle and alloy enriched bones weighted a whooping 600 give or take a few kilograms.

Another batch of cosmic marines were having a swimming competition, they swam with such gusto that If someone saw them from afar they'd think that It's motorboats that are making all that splashing and wawes.

I watched with a sense of pride as my warriors let off steam, knowing that they had earned this moment of respite.

It was important to balance hard work with moments of relaxation, and to them who were off duty today was a well-deserved break.

"I think I could get used to this..."

I muttered to myself while lowering down the beds front part, determined to enjoy a quick power nap.

Well If you could call It a nap since we only slept like normal people then we were extremely tired to the point we could drop dead from lack of sleep.

So normally we would be In half asleep half awake state like a lucid dream, I really might have gone overboard.

I thought only to hear a salute that was only used by my warriors.

"Ave Dracula!"

Hearing this I sat up while removing my sunglasses as I grabbed another cold one and after removing the bottle cap with my hand took a sip.

"Any problems?"

I asked eyeing Nole who from the looks of It was In a need of a good night's sleep.

"No Imperator"

Nole answered as he did I handed him a glass see-through holographic tablet containing all the plans for the space lift.

"What's this Imperator?"

Nole asked as he took the tablet from my hands and started playing with It, causing a holographic blueprint to get projected from the tablet.

"You got two choices"

I began, my tone lazy as I watched Noles eyes sparkle like a stary nights sky as he started studying the holographics projection with gutso.
