Galaxy Wars: The Legacy of Light and Darkness

Chapter 63: Show Me Your Worth or I Will Destroy You

James felt great shock when he heard those words. It was like the voice came from his mind, but he was sure it wasn't his mind at all.

'Who the hell are you?'

'I'm just half of me, so I can't really define who the real me is. I think I am still not fully born in this world, and you need to make me complete to know who I am.'

James was speechless, what nonsense was this? He couldn't understand anything but this scepter inside him was only half of the real scepter, and this was the first time the real scepter was born.

That meant this scepter was unique, very unique, or else why three of strange, strong looking enemies fight among themselves to obtain it?

'What benefit does it have for me?'

This was the main thing he wanted to know before considering completing this scepter or not. This scepter seemed pretty dangerous, either it would cause some damage to him or he would suffer the three enemies' retaliation.

So he needed to know if the risk was worth the effort. His body was still paralyzed motionless above Dora's head. If he couldn't move, then he wouldn't be able to help himself, Dora, or that weird scepter.

'I want to move, but I can't. if I can't move, how am I supposed to get your second half?'

'If you move, then you will consume a lot of my energy. It's not worth it. as for the benefit, you can say I would make you stronger.'

His answers weren't received well from James, who felt this scepter was bluffing. He had to move, or else waiting here was like waiting for his death inside a hot oven.

'Supreme leader, those three who just got blasted by your cannon are about to enter your place now. Be careful, I only need one minute and reach you.'

Before he could say anything, Rigo's warning came to make him return to reality. He wasn't safe yet from the threats of those three.

'Change for plans, if you want me to find your second part, then you must help me escape from here,' James thought in his mind.

'I'm sorry, I didn't have any stealth function at all. You have to escape on your own.'

'Then I need you to attack and try to kill the incoming enemies.'

'I'm sorry, I don't have any attack ability. You need to figure this out yourself.'

James felt great rage towards this scepter, as this wasn't the definition of strength he was expecting. James felt he was schemed and fell for the dirty joke of someone not funny at all.

This scepter was useless, more useless than a scrap of metal in a junkyard.

'You know I'm regretting letting you inside my body, and I won't let you get any close to your second half. I will order my right handed man to throw the other scepter into the space to be lost forever.'

James vented down his anger over the scepter as he was really mad about it right now. However the voice of scepter came at once trying to change his mind:

'Please don't, I promise you will get great strength out of the two of us.'

'That's just rubbish talk. I won't fail for it ever again. I will order my man to throw your brother into space.'

James intended to throw the other scepter but not now. He still needed to move the scepters away from here to save Eli. At the same time he needed to find a way to get rid of the shameless scepter inside him.

'Wait, what can I do to make you believe me?'

The scepter seemed to know the inner thoughts of James, and it knew James wasn't bluffing here. so, it had to find a way to make him seriously consider its value and turn his mind away from throwing its other half away.

James on the other hand didn't have to think of an answer, as he yelled with an audible angry tone:

"I want you to show me your worth!"

"Excuse me?!!" Dora asked with some weirdness that James didn't mind too. He was deep in his own mess right now.

'Ok, I get your point. I believe you will be satisfied with my performance. All you need to do is to tell me who your enemies are and I will handle them.'

The tone of the scepter had strange confidence in it that made James doubt it was telling the truth. James then said to the scepter:

'If you fail, I will ditch your second part and you will be forever alone. I also promise to find a way to get rid of you, so don't try to fool me. if I died, you die with me. Do you understand that?'

'I do, I totally understand what you mean. Please trust me and give me this chance to prove myself,' the scepter said.

'Like I have even a choice to do that.'

James was very frustrated, however he knew his options ran out and he had no other way except to accept the scepter's offer. He hoped the scepter didn't screw up, or else he would die alongside Dora, and everything he did so far would be lost forever.

Just as he finished his inner quarrel with the scepter inside his mind, James felt something as he moved his eyeballs towards the opening in the deck.

They were back, the three enemies were here. Rigo had already warned him, but as he was suspended motionless like this he had no way to escape or even defend himself.

He had to stay at his place peacefully like Dora, watching the three enemies entering the commanding deck. They had some sort of a protective suit that helped them sustain the impossible space environment.

However James still couldn't understand how the three of them returned inside a very fast cruiser like this. That was unbelievable, however he wasn't that amazed. Since he escaped from his planet, he didn't see anything normal at all.

"Well well well, look at what we have here. a rat had entered our home and he even dared to eat our meal. What do you think, friends? Do we help him and end his life swiftly, or do we leave him to suffer until his flame of life becomes extinguished?"
