"It's not fear, just caution. I think as Commander of the fleet, you should always remain vigilant."
Ai Lan responded calmly, showing no sign of being upset.
"I don't need you to teach me, do you really think...."
Commander Anu replied coldly.
"Enough, Commander Anu."
At this moment, a powerful voice interrupted Anu.
A man clad in black V Generation Mechanical Armor, with a strong build, full of muscular physique, and a composed face exuding confidence, walked over.
Anu looked at the man in front of her and couldn't help but lower her head.
"Duke Ashton, you've arrived."
Ashton nodded slightly, turned to Ai Lan, and said gently, "Ai Lan, don't mind it. Anu's personality is like this; she means no harm."
"How could I care about such things."
Ai Lan replied softly.
Ashton reached out and held Ai Lan's hand affectionately, "Well then, after this escort mission is over, I'll take you to the Mandiri Star Domain to see the most beautiful nebula.
"Okay!"
