"Heh~"
Skye found it interesting. She crouched down and gently patted the silly penguin on the head.
"Li, you're so bad! Hurry up and put it back, look how anxious it is~"
Penguin: "Nia! Nia! Nia! (Recharge Q-Coins! Recharge Q-Coins!)"
"Doesn't it sound quite happy to you?"
Ye Li pulled her small hand, helping her stand up, "Look here, Skye, we've arrived."
"Arrived? Arrived where?"
The girl curiously raised her pitch-black eyes———
In those eyes.
Instantly reflected was a brilliant starry sky,
And a blue planet...
"We've... we've arrived in outer space.....!"
Admiring the vast and magnificent universe, Skye's little tongue even stumbled a bit.
"So, this is what you called the Ghost Spider?"
She walked up to the porthole, gently pressing her two slender and beautiful palms against it, her delicate fingers spread open, and her pretty face pressed very close to the crystal-like window...
"It's so beautiful... Li, tell me… Those alien creatures keep visiting Earth, is it because they also think this planet is stunning in the universe~?"
"Cough… Not really, they aren't exactly visual creatures."
Ye Li responded in a straightforward manner,
"Our planet, in the vast universe, is nothing more than a tiny speck of dust."
But in his heart, he added:
'...But in the Marvel universe... it is the most special speck of dust...'
"Li~——"
Skye turned her head, her eyes carrying a hint of helplessness.
"I thought you'd be a bit more romantic~"
"Romantic? Hm?"
Seeing her slightly bent posture and the subtle curve of her waist, Ye Li chuckled and walked closer, wrapping his arms around her slender waist from behind—
"Heh, are you expecting me to say something like 'You are the most dazzling star in the galaxy'? Doesn't that sound too cheesy?"
"...Didn't you just say it anyway..."
"You like hearing it?"
"Whatever you say... I like hearing it..."
".....You're quite the sweet-talker too..... Skye~"
"I'm not like you..... I mean it from the heart..."
"What about me then?"
The girl pouted slightly, "You're a flirt....."
"Uh... alright~"
Ye Li was amused.
In front of the porthole.
With Earth's blue hue as the backdrop.
He lowered his head toward her soft, pink lips———
"My little assistant~ You're really adorable..."
"Mmm..."
…..
The camera slowly zoomed out, rising higher.
It revealed that the couple was on a raised observation deck of the Vibranium mothership.
Above and all around them, a 360-degree one-way mirror system displayed
An uninterrupted view of the deep, tranquil cosmic sky…
If one could see through the ship's stealth technology,
They would witness the Ghost Spider—its exterior painted in a black-silver color scheme.
Enormous in scale, standing like a towering mountain range,
Even a Dark Elf mothership would seem insignificant before it…
"Skye... you've worked hard... managing the club's assets all by yourself..."
"It's actually not that busy… Besides, I should be thanking you… If it weren't for you, at just eighteen, how could I possibly be in such a high position…"
"Oh? Then how do you plan to repay me~"
Ye Li leaned in again, pretending to kiss her.
Skye: "Mmm…"
"Skye, you're falling behind~ Cindy already....."
"Enn..."
Skye puffed her cheeks slightly, half-complaining, "That's only because Sensei hasn't visited me lately. Actually..."
Ye Li blinked: "Could it be that you actually already wanted to...."
"Of course, not..... mm....."
Her mouth spoke in denial, but her soft lips were quite honest.....
…..
The sun and moon share the same bed...
Heaven and Earth as the mat...
The galaxy as the quilt...
Orioles chirping sweetly...
Grace showered across the cosmos...
…..
"So beautiful..."
The girl lay weakly, gazing at the starry sky glittering across the heavens, as if she were floating within it, wrapping the starlight around her like a ribbon...
Her beautiful eyes, reflecting the blue planet, slowly closed in satisfaction.
Curled up in the man's embrace, her delicate body murmured softly in a dreamlike tone...
"....Li....."
"....So beautiful....."
A boat full of clear dreams, pressing down on the Milky Way.
