Veyric leaned forward from the copilot seat for a closer look. “Oh, this is the surveillance system. There’s someone not too far from us, but you don’t have to worry. This is the newest model aircraft, which costs a billion stellar coins. They say not even a meteor can punch through it, and mortars are nothing. In the air, we don’t have to worry about being shot down.”
Oh
Sylvara had barely finished responding when Veyric suddenly cursed.
He slammed his hand on the surveillance system and swore loudly, “Shit, we’re being tracked! See those blinking black dots? It’s either an aircraft or a warship.”
Sylvara stared at the dot on the system as it got closer and cranked the aircraft’s speed to the max. “Are you sure they’re coming after us?”
The aircraft shot forward. Veyric got thrown sideways and ended up slammed against the seatback. “I’m sure. I even figured out it’s a warship.”
She was stunned. “How do you know it’s a warship?”
It’s a warship?
Don’t tell me it’s Blake?
He just finished messing with Agares, and now he sends a warship after me?
Isn’t that overkill?
What a sore loser!
No, it’s not that.
He’s simply trying to finish me off for good!
“Their speed is insane.” Veyric kept swiping at the surveillance system. “Our aircraft does around 600 miles an hour. They’re going even faster-between 930 and 1,200 miles per hour.
“Only a warship could move that fast. So, yeah, what’s after us is definitely a warship.”
Sylvara arched an eyebrow. “Veyric, you sure know a lot
Veyric froze for a second at her words, then forced a sheepish laugh, trying to cover for himself. “I’m a military academy student, and I love all things military. Gotta know this stuff, or I wouldn’t be here, right?”
Look at him.
She was just messing with him.
She wasn’t even trying to blow his cover, yet he was getting all nervous. Tsk.
Just look at his face-he was as pale as a sheet
Sylvara shot him a sideways look and smiled. “Alright then, tell me, what’s our aircraft’s advantage over a warship?

“Advantage?” Veyric’s mind worked fast as he stared at the warship getting closer on the display. “It’s small.”
She repeated, “Small?”
He nodded hard. “Yeah. This aircraft is way smaller than a warship. Ours is a two-seater. The warship in this training has to be a two-seater too.
“And since it’s a two-seater, a warship won’t be small. Plus, it carries weapons, so no way it is as compact as our aircraft. It can only be bigger.
“Ours is expensive because of its surveillance system, and it should have an electronic jamming system too. Most importantly, it’s tough. Unless we go head-to-head with the warship, crashing, hitting a mountain, or landing in water is no big deal.”
Sylvara’s mouth dropped open.
In her heart, she silently thanked Malcom for splurging on the aircraft.
When we get back, I’ll make sure to cook him lots of ment. And I’ll make plenty of fruit desserts for him.
“It really does have an electronic jamming system!” Veyric found it on the controls and shouted, “Sylvie, there’s a jamming system, we’ve got one!”
Sylvara’s mouth snapped shut as she grinned. “Turn it on and mess up their radar. We’ll wait for them here for a bit.”
Veyric flipped the switch, his voice trembling. “We’re waiting here? Y-You want to take them out?!”
Sylvara suddenly dropped the aircraft. “Veyric, they’re after us to take us out. You don’t want that, right?”
Veyric shook his head so fast it was almost a blur. “No way, I don’t want that! The jammer’s on. For the sake of my recommendation letter and the Hunting Legion, let’s take them out.”
Sylvara burst out laughing. “Now that’s the spirit! Aim high! Maybe the one chasing us is General Kenobia.”
Veyric said, “What?”
Sylvara kept laughing. “Veyric, imagine this. You took out the commander, and now you’re about to take out a high general all in the same day. You’d be a legend across the Empire!”
With that praise, Veyric felt like he was floating. It was the highlight of his life. Taking down both the Commander and a general in one day-how awesome was that?
“That’s right!” Sylvara summed up. “You’ve got to dream big. Maybe we’ll get lucky again.”
Veyric agreed enthusiastically. “Right, I’m with you. If we got lucky once, we can get lucky again.”
“That’s what I like to hear. Hang on tight.” Sylvara called but as the aircraft plunged and then jerked to a stop
on a treetop.
Veyric grabbed the handrail.
She opened the window, rested her hand outside, and the Smokewillow in her palm turned into a thick, wild vine, wrapping the aircraft tightly.

Inside, everything went pitch black. Only the dim light from the surveillance system glowed, showing the black dots moving closer. It was now right above them.
“They’re gone.” Blake, under his sunglasses, frowned as is violet eyes grew dark. “Their aircraft has a jamming system. Well, Aslan, this is interesting. I have a feeling our princess consort is in that aircraft.”
