Chapter 1103: Chapter 1103: Mister Ririrossonovich
"He... he really is just flying in space! Is he wearing some sort of jetpack!?"
And as the shocked tondions have said, Riley was now flying across the expanse of space — and if it wasn't for the bright pink helmet he was wearing, then they probably wouldn't even know where to follow him. He wasn't really moving that fast, but he was moving randomly like a mosquito. If they didn't know where to look, they would have already lost sight of him.
The other spaceships, however, were completely unaware that a single individual was just flying across the expanse of space while they were busy trying to take down and kill each other.
"Well, that's surprising." And while the tondions were unbelievably shocked with what they were seeing, Miss Pepondosovich just had her eyebrows raised, "He still hasn't killed anyone... I would say that's an improvement, wow."
"Just..." Captain Kuhoo could really only glance at Miss Pepondosovich,
"...Just who are you people?"
As for Riley Ross, there wasn't truly any particular reason why he was just flying around like that-no. If there was a reason, it would be that he just wanted to fly around while being surrounded by a chaos that he did not really start.
Well, of course, since the people attacking this place are literally called the Order of Nothing and their leader was an individual called Darkday, he might actually have something to do with it and that is what he was here to find out.
Riley finally stopped moving around the expanse of space and just started scanning the surrounding area.
"Hm," and with a small hum, he looked at the nearest ship belonging to the Order of Nothing and quickly flew toward it. This particular ship, however, already had someone else tailing and following it - a red ship, belonging to the so-called Nothing Nothing squad.
"We're locked on the target!" The people in it were all wearing half-face helmets that completely covered their eyes, each of different color-no. In fact, they were also all wearing different-colored suits.
"Yellow, wait for my signal!" The one who was wearing a red helmet raised her arm - she was the only one standing, on top of a deck of some kind as she overlooked everyone as well as the large window shield in front of them, which also projected several images of what was happening around them - and this time, she was focused on the ship they were tailing,
"Wait...
...Fire!"
And as she waved her hand, the one wearing a yellow helmet pressed something on her terminal — and not even a millisecond after doing so, a beam shot out and went straight toward the ship they were targeting.
"Yes! Direct... hit?" The one wearing a yellow helmet was about to cheer when he noticed that the ship did not explode at all or was even damaged by their attack.
"Wait, what's that!?" The one wearing a blue helmet flicked the screen in front of him and threw the image toward the large window - and there, a zoomed-in footage of the ship was shown, or more specifically...
"Is that... a person?" Red Helmet could not help but just lean forward as she saw what seemed to be the silhouette of a person, "Blue, zoom in further!"
"It... it really is a person!" Everyone stopped what they were doing, even the main pilot as he looked at the person floating in the expanse of space, wearing a pink helmet with bunny ears on it.
"Did-is it the one responsible for stopping the blast!?" Red Helmet asked.
"I... I believe so!" Yellow Helmet nodded several times.
The person nearest to the one who pulled out a gun ran toward his comrade - but before he could even take 3 steps, his body completely split in half as Riley appeared right beside him and pulled out his gun... along with the entire belt around his waist.
And without even any hesitation or waiting for anyone to react, Riley started shooting everyone inside the ship — and he did not even move his feet at all; just standing there like a turret and swinging his upper body to kill everyone.
Since none of them seemed to want to comply with him and go with him for questions, Riley really had no use in keeping them alive since he was not in the mood of abducting people against their will and then keeping them in glass cages - he was living the nomadic lifestyle now, he has no time to care for pets.
"Hm..." Riley then headed straight to the cockpit, casually pushing the main pilot to the side as he took her seat. He then started looking around at all the buttons and stats on the screen before just letting out a small but very deep breath.
He did not even know how to drive a car, and he would not start now without someone teaching him. And so, Riley just did what he always does he drove the ship with his telekinesis and just pretended to smash the buttons on the terminal.
"Now..." Riley then scanned for enemies, "...I suppose I should just shoot the first ship I see
and-"
And before Riley could finish his words, one of the screens in the terminal started blinking.
Riley did not really know what to do with it and just tried tapping it hoping that it would do something, and fortunately for him, it did - it projected another screen right in front of him which covered his view of the expanse of space.
And there, in front of him, was Red Helmet.
[Order of Nothing! We do not know what sort of tricks you are trying to pull, but we have your ship locked on and we will shoot you if you do not surr-Wait, you...?] Red Helmet then started shaking her as she looked around, [... Are those dead Nothings behind you? Wait, are you on our side? Did you actually take control of their ship?]
"I am not on anyone's side," Riley just tilted his head and answered, "And yes, I am controlling this ship perfectly with the buttons."
[...Buttons?] Red Helmet also tilted her head to the side. But after a few seconds, she shook
her head and pointed at Riley through the screen, [That doesn't matter - Stranger, you are
now in possession of a ship owned by the Order of Nothing. Shut it off, or you will be caught in
the crossfire!]
[Uh... Didn't you just see what he did, Red? He practically pried the_"
[S...shut up, this is protocol!]
"I apologize, then..." Riley shook his head, "...I still plan to shoot several ships down as this is
the first time I am experiencing this."
[T-]
"Goodbye."
