"You... You are Lester?" Sunny's voice was devoid of panic, replaced by cold calculation. He snapped his fingers, and the five rescued children instantly vanished, safely transported to Eldoria.
"I see you are the cautious type." Lester's image on the screen slowly nodded, an appreciative smirk playing on his lips. "Teleporting the kids away is a very good idea. A commendable display of quick thinking."
Sunny didn't respond to the praise. He strode toward the main command chair and sat down, meeting Lester's gaze across the vast emptiness of space and the intervening holographic screen.
"Why did you go through all this trouble to lure me onto this ship?" Sunny demanded, his focus absolute.
'He must have someone watching me, or some terrifying scrying ability,' Sunny thought, struggling to reconcile how this being, who wasn't even physically present, knew every detail of his movements.
"That's the only explanation for his omniscient knowledge.'
