Ace Of Terrans

Shi Lang was taking deep breaths and calmed himself down as he said, "You think I like this?"

The ship was brought to dock in the spaceport, and then the Ace Division made its way to the office of the Strike Force, they were carrying the weapon with them, and going to submit it to the force. Shi Lang had taken his time checking this missile and he did not find any spiritual interference in the weapon otherwise he would have dismantled it.

When the team walked inside the building, they attracted the attention of all the people. Shi Lang came to the reception and asked, "I need to submit the mission report, and also this weapon needs to be submitted as well. Can you tell me where I go for all this or who do I find?"

The person in the reception had cat ears and her lips were also akin to that of a cat, she smiled and said, "Captain Shi Lang, the weapon can be submitted to the Arsenal on X level, while the mission report needs to be submitted to the Commander herself."

Shi Lang nodded and said, "Thank you."

The young man turned around and said, "Jill, take the weapon. The rest of you find the office space they have given us, also, prepare your reports and hand them over to me."

The team nodded and then they split up. Crystal followed Jill like a tail. Shi Lang made his way to the top floor. He looked around and found Adjutant Shina. The lady was working on some documents on her holocomp when she sensed someone approaching her. She raised her head and asked, "Captain Shi Lang, you are back? The mission has been completed?"

Shi Lang nodded and replied, "Yes, Ma\'am. It has been completed. I was wondering when can I submit my report to the Commander?"

He acted in line with being a soldier, never forgetting the difference between the ranks. Even if someone was weaker than him, if the person was his superior officer, he would follow the rules and the protocols.

Shina nodded to him with a smile and then said, "Let me ask her."

She used her communicator and after a few seconds she said, "Go in."

Shi Lang saluted her and with a nod he left. The young man knocked on the door and the Commander said, "Come in."

The young man pushed the door in and entered the room, however, he was surprised when he saw that three people were standing in front of the Commander. He did not know any of these guys and nor did he have any interest in them. He walked over to stand in front of Harley and saluted her.

The lady nodded and asked, "Did you complete it?"

Shi Lang nodded and replied, "Yes, Sir, the mission has been completed."

Harley asked in a cold voice, "The casualties?"

"None, Sir.", replied Shi Lang.

This shocked Harley so much that she stood up from her chair and asked, "What did you say? Zero Casualties?"

Shi Lang nodded and said, "You heard that right, commander. Zero casualties."

Harley asked, "The details, now."

She was eager to ask what Shi Lang had done to complete this task with such a record. Shi Lang was about to reply when one of the three people on the side cleared his throat. This was to remind the two people of their presence.

Shi Lang did not turn his head to look at these people but Harley said with an exasperated face, "This time I will not entertain the requests of the big five, Captain Stix sexually harassed a new member of the Strike Force and he has been complained against by several other members, he is not someone we can afford in here if you wish to see this place working in harmony that is."

The man who had cleared his throat said, "Commander Harley, do not think that you can throw your weight around, there are many people who are eager to replace you, and then Stix will be put back to work as well."

Harley tilted her head as she looked at the man and said, "You can try and get me to be replaced, but I will remind you, if your champions are not sure of their skills, they will die and you will be the one responsible for it."

This was enough to shock the people and to tell them about the attitude Harley had toward them. Thinking about something the man said, "Fine, tell me the name of the person who dared to stand against him."

Harley sighed and said, "Why?"

The man replied, "I want to see, who is the person, so daring that even the big five of the galaxy do not mean anything to him."

Shi Lang stepped forward and said, "Commander, may I?"

Harley nodded, she knew this will not end, and Shi Lang was not someone who would step back either, so she decided to let them have a go at it, she was going to support Shi Lang if he was pressured.

The man looked at Shi Lang and was about to retort about the latter interrupting the conversation when the young Terran General said, "I am the one who acted against Stix, what can I do for you?"

This confession shocked the three people, and the man in the lead said, "Oh, so you are the Terran who dared to act insolently. Did you not know that Stix was a member of the Ikeras? The big five."

Shi Lang shook his head simply with a calm expression on his face. This calm on his face pissed the three people even more, however, he kept his calm and asked, "Now that you know his status, would you like to pledge your fealty to him and serve as his dog? You can have anything that you want."

The offer made Shi Lang raise his eyes and then he said, "If it was my home world, you would have died so many times, that you might not be able to keep count for saying something like this. Also, what if he is from the big five, and what about you being from the big five? Come at me when you dare to go out without the Ikeras tattooed on your ass for safety."

The man clenched his fist and glared at Shi Lang and said, "Are you sure you want to stick with that statement? I work for the ambassador of Ikeras."

Shi Lang glanced at the man and said, "Stix must be your relative then, however, I want to ask if this matter involves the ambassador. Let me check, the council must be in session now, we might be able to get a comment from him."

Harley was surprised while the others were shocked. Shi Lang said, "Commander, you might be able to contact, Sir Ambassador about this matter, right?"

The lady found the young man winking at her, and caught the hint. The angle prevented the Ikeras from catching the signal and the lady nodded, "Let me contact him right away. After all, such a matter is questioning the reputation of the Ikeras."

Shi Lang nodded and said, "I want to know if there is a civilization that is willing to wage a galactic war over such a petty issue."

The man was left speechless. Shi Lang said, "You need to understand where to throw your weight around and where to walk with your head down. The Ikeras are the big five, the leaders of the galactic civilizations, we all aspire to be as great as they are, and we learn from them. However, just like anyone else, Ikeras also have a few rotten seeds, I will be making a personal complaint to the Ambassador and have him look into this matter."

The butler shivered, the ambassador was a righteous person, and he would definitely not let him get away with this manipulation. Shi Lang literally tricked this man to jump into a pit he dug and this attempt was successful. He did not intend to go against the Ikeras, but that was just for a limited time. If the big five tried to wage wars against the federation in a few years, then they will regret it.

The butler grit his teeth and then he walked out of the cabin with his subordinates. Harley sighed and fell back on her chair, she said, "I thought you were picking up a fight?"

Shi Lang nodded and said, "I am, but not now, in the future, yes."
