But it wasn't a joke. It was real. It was the truth.
While some remained skeptical, they all believed it—because the source was undeniably reliable. Anything presented before the Federation Council was first verified by the Goddess of Wisdom herself. So, as unbelievable as it seemed, they accepted it as truth.
After all, for many—if not all—it had always been a given that the destructive power of Divine Pilots surpassed everything else. Not even the Federation's dreadnought-grade warships or their colossal cannons were considered equal.
And yet… here they were. Watching undeniable evidence that a single warship had demonstrated power clearly greater than that of even Divine Pilots—at least in terms of raw destructive capability.
So yes, their skepticism had been justified. Because what they were witnessing wasn't just a powerful ship.
It was as if reality itself was shifting.
And they weren't the only ones shaken to their very core.
