Winston smiled. “That part’s easy. You don’t have to worry.”
As he spoke, he immediately opened his lightcore.

Right there on the spot, he recorded a message saying he was voluntarily assisting Corvin with the experiment, then sent it out to everyone at once.
Silas wanted to stop him, but it was already too late.
“There. Settled. Now let’s do it.”
Winston adjusted his robe and sat upright on the bed.
“I want to feel it properly this time. The last two jumps were too quick. I barely felt a thing.”
Seeing that Winston was absolutely determined, Corvin looked at the two cubs perched on Marcus and could only go along with it.
“Sir, since you insist, I’ll begin. But let me say this first. The system still isn’t stable, and the destination can’t be controlled yet. Wherever we end up, you can’t hold me responsible.”
“Of course not. Of course not.” Winston nodded eagerly. “Just go ahead. Don’t be afraid.”
Corvin threw Marcus a glance, then pretended to take some sort of instrument out of storage. “Sir, I’m starting. Be ready.”
He began stabbing at the machine with exaggerated seriousness, making it look incredibly complicated.
“Three… two… one…”
The instant he reached one, Marcus casually lifted a hand and poked the cub on his head.
The little thing responded immediately.
In the next second, a terrifying pulling force slammed down. The spatial distortion that erupted this time was far stronger than before.
“D*mn, the coordinates shifted!”
Corvin shouted as if alarmed, then grabbed the nearest bedpost like it was pure instinct.
“It’s fine. I’m prepared! Come on! Send me right into it!”
Not only did Winston fail to retreat, but he actually spread his arms like some heroic martyr ready to sacrifice himself for the Empire.
A heartbeat later, Corvin, Silas, Marcus, Jim, and Winston-who looked ready to die gloriously-vanished from the room all at once.
They reappeared inside the Grand Theater.
A massive charity gala was in full swing, and the Empire’s hottest male idol had just reached the emotional peak of his

All of a sudden, five adult men fell out of nowhere and crashed straight into the center of the stage, taking out the backup dancers with them.
The lighting technician was frighteningly competent too. A brutal white spotlight snapped onto them immediately.
Winston, still in that loose robe and still standing with both arms flung wide, faced the audience of tens of thousands and roared in a voice like thunder, “Corvin, excellent work! That landing was stable. Didn’t hurt at all.”
The audience was stunned into silence.
Corvin lowered his head and covered his face. Just kill me. Please. Right now. No one say a word.
The whole venue went dead still.
The crowd, the singer onstage-who had been in the middle of a high note and nearly died choking from the shock-and every last person in the hall froze on the spot.
That spotlight was mercilessly bright. There was nowhere for Silas and his beautiful face to hide.
He had landed in an extremely embarrassing half-crouch and was trying to fold himself behind Corvin’s heavy armor, like he wanted the floor to open up and swallow him.
“Is that… Consul Hamblin?”
A stunned voice suddenly came from the front rows. Then, in the next instant, countless lightcores lit up and flashed toward Silas like machine-gun fire.
Faced with tens of thousands of shocked stares and that scorching spotlight, Silas’ brain blanked out for a tenth of a second.
Then he moved.
In an instant, he switched into perfect chief consul mode.
He rose elegantly, adjusted Corvin’s crooked armor as though everything was completely normal, then reached over and tugged Winston’s robe closed a little so it covered more skin.
With a warm, effortless smile, he even raised one hand and waved to the audience.
“Please don’t be alarmed.”
His voice carried smoothly through the theater sound system.

The audience remained silent for three seconds.
Then the theater erupted.
Applause crashed through the hall like a storm.
