Chapter 203 New Digs



Having executed Echo, Erich now found himself as an Archon of the Alfheim Dominion, which essentially meant he was Lunaria's enforcer. There were no rules or regulations which applied to him within the Alfheim Quadrant of the Milky Way Galaxy, and because of this, his service to the Germanic Star-Empire had suddenly come to an end.

Erich was now a free man, able to traverse the galaxy as he saw fit. He could spend his nights in any world he dreamed of, or even in the private quarters of his new ship. Speaking of ships, Erich was given a specially designed stealth frigate. This was no mere warship, but the personal starship of an Archon.

This ship was small enough to be able to land on worlds, but was large enough to accompany a sizeable crew. It also had enough firepower to punch a hole in a capital class ship and enough speed to outrun just about any vessel in the galaxy. It was the pinnacle of Alfheim technology, but due to the fact that Erich came from the Germanic Star-Empire, its aesthetics matched the ships in service to the Germanic Navy.

Erich found himself gazing upon the ships while he was visiting the world of Alfheim. Lunaria was showing him around the vessel, which she had named the Vigilance. Erich was truly surprised by the overall capabilities of the ship.

The interior was utilitarian, as was common among Germanic ships. And because it was designed to mimic those in the Germanic fleet, at least in appearance, Erich felt himself at home. Although some comforts were added that were more common on civilian ships, such as leather seats, and a proper kitchen. Lunaria had a proud smirk on her face as she finished giving Erich the tour.

"Well? What do you think?"

Erich looked around once more and nodded his head with a proud smile on his face.

"It's amazing. A hell of a lot better than the tiny exploration ship I currently have. Although I have a question: how many people are required to crew this thing?"

Lunaria wore an arrogant expression on her pretty face as she answered Erich's expression with a hint of pride in her voice.

"Absolutely zero. The entire ship can be automated, if you do so please. Though there is ample enough room for about six people. Perhaps a landing party to assist you in combat operations. Or some people you pick up along the way whose skills can aid you in your mission.

Oh, that reminds me, with your new title, you are also granted unrestricted access to Alfheim databases and communications channels. At any point, you can command any Alfheim Units, or those of my vassals to assist you in your operations, if need be. But I wouldn't recommend doing so, if you can at all avoid it.

Those old fuddy duddies in the military don't take kindly to following the orders of an independent operative. They will follow your orders if you command them, but you might create some powerful enemies if you routinely do so."

Erich was stunned by this sudden information. He had no idea how he had managed to earn such a privileged position, but he was honored that Lunaria had granted it to him. Of course, this only created further questions, chief of which was what the hell was he supposed to do with so much power.

"Your Majesty, what are my orders?"

ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm Upon seeing how serious Erich was, despite being alone with her. Lunaria couldn't help but giggle as she grabbed hold of his collar and pulled him in close for a kiss. After she had twirled her tongue around with his for a satisfying amount of time, she whispered in his ears with a seductive voice. I think you should take a look at

'Your orders are to do whatever the fuck you want to do!"

After saying this, Lunaria pulled away, before winking at Erich where she continued to explain what she had meant by this .

"Archons are my ultimate weapon against internal rebellions. Your goal now is to traverse the Alfheim Quadrant, and eliminate any fools who wish to shake up the established order of my territory.

If I'm being honest, you are the 100th Archon, and the first person to be assigned the title in the past one thousand years. Your peers are out there in the galaxy. Most of them are active within the Alfheim Quadrant, though some like to go beyond our borders and take the fight to those enemies abroad who do their damndest to stoke the flames of rebellion.

You should just know that if you do go outside the Alfheim Quadrant, you will no longer be immune to the law. Those other quadrants will not recognize your privileges and will treat you like any other foreign agent, especially if they capture you alive.

As far as your revival goes, I have rerouted your data to the world of Alfheim. No matter where you may perish in the galaxy, you will be brought back with your memories intact. As our network is far more advanced than that of your homeland."

Erich was once more astounded by the perks of being an archon. Not only was he now operating with some of the most advanced military equipment in the galaxy, but his revival was now certain, no matter how or where he may perish. It was truly unbelievable. All with the goal of maintaining order in mind.

This was a job that Erich felt he was far better suited to. And thus, he responded to Lunaria's words with an Alfheim salute. Which only caused her to giggle once more. She then began to explain a bit more about the perks he now had.

"I would suggest putting together a crew. As an archon, any actions they may take that were under your orders will give them the same level of immunity that you have. You don't even need to register their identities, so long as you confirm that they were acting under your orders, and not as rogue agents.

Of course, like I said during my speech. Although you are immune to the laws and customs of the Alfheim quadrant, if you were to betray me in any way, I would easily be able to revoke your status and paint a target on your back. One that will only disappear after you are dead. So I suggest you don't do something so foolish, wouldn't you agree?"

Erich could only smile. He had no intentions of betraying Lunaria. In fact, right now, he had a mission in mind. After learning that, the Sages of the Alfheim Dominion were colluding with the Sages of the Svartalfheim Federation. Erich now believed they were the greatest threat to the order which he was tasked with protecting.

Thus, Erich was now tasked with putting together a crew of elite operators to traverse the galaxy in an attempt to hunt down and eliminate the Sage's, who were now his enemy. Something which he planned to begin immediately.

Of course, while Erich was planning to eliminate the Sages, they were also planning on how they would assassinate him, now that they believed it was confirmed that Erich was indeed the Dark Sage, as prophesied by fate.
