"War... Is it going to end? "This somewhat sudden news hit Calais.

"Well, I heard that the Ferrelat army of Piristar has begun to withdraw to the country one after another through the jump point."

Pili is a colonized planet of the seventh galaxy in the Southern Sky Domain. The Seventh Galaxy of the Southern Sky Domain is the location of the jump point connecting the Herry Star Domain of the Ferralai Empire, and is the only large shipping route between the two star fields.

Piri is the second largest colonized planet in the Southern Sky Star Field, with a population of 1.3 billion and four latest orbiting spaceports.

Unlike Harman, a planet that has been abandoned by the Ferelais, Piri is the main force of all the Ferelai Empire's expeditions to the Federation, reaching more than 800 divisions at its peak!

It can be said that more than 800 divisions are enough to encircle the entire Pyridium and leave the Federal Army with no place to stay.

"The withdrawal of the Ferelai is a signal and a sign of good faith, and at present, their diplomatic envoys have entered the federal capital of Mordpila to start peace talks."

The Ferreleans began to take the initiative to make peace.

"If the negotiations go well, this war should be over." Looking at the starry sky, Magnolia was also a little melancholy, and the sudden end of the war made her feel a little less realistic.

Is it finally coming to an end?

After four years of anti-aggression war, 16 million Federation soldiers died on the battlefield, trampling the road they paved with blood, and the Ladel Federation finally ushered in the dawn of victory, but this was the Empire's initiative to sue for peace.

Missing a sense of revenge with a bladed enemy.

Magnolia once thought of breaking into the Ferrelian Empire, killing all the way to the depths, and returning the color to the invading Ferrelai Empire.

If the negotiations were successful, none of this would have been possible.

This may be where Magnolia feels melancholy.

"Don't talk about this, we just wait for the result, and it's useless to worry about it." Magnolia was still like that, her mood changed quickly, and her mind jumped.

"If the war is over, do you want to join the 17th Division?" Magnolia extended another invitation to Calais.

"Nope." Calais shook his head, rejecting Magnolia.

Although he also has a heart to fight for his country, Calais does not plan to join the army.

"You're really a stone in a pit, smelly and hard." Magnolia wrinkled her nose and spat Calais.

Calais smiled and did not refute.

"Hey, that's the end of the battle, tell me your story." Magnolia was a little looking forward to hearing Calais's story.

I said yes before, but I didn't expect the war to end so quickly.

"It's not over yet." Calais retorted to Magnolia.

"The battle is almost over, if the negotiations go well." Magnolia's eyes flashed with a sly glint.

"But the battle of Haman is over, you are not allowed to Laipi, say it quickly."

A little helpless, Calais felt like he was being tricked.

"Actually." Calais spoke in a hurry, pausing halfway through.

But Magnolia was not impatient, and listened expectantly, like a curious baby who was fascinated by books.

"Actually, I'm not a citizen of the Radelle Federation."

"Huh!?" Magnolia was stunned, thinking she had heard.

"Didn't you always say you were?"

"I'm just a black household, and I don't have citizenship." Calais speaks amazingly.

"How, how is it possible." Magnolia couldn't believe it.

For Magnolia, who was born into a wealthy family, was admitted to the First Army Military Academy in Radel at the age of 17, and went on to participate directly in the war between the Federation and the Empire after graduation, those who struggled at the bottom of society would never be reached.

"Yes." Calais confirmed Magnolia's doubts.

The story of Calais begins.

For as long as he can remember, he was an orphan who was taken in by an old man in a slum.

The old man's name is Rim Green, and he is a waste picker who lives on the edge of Herm, the edge of the large garbage dump of the Hildefa Commonwealth.

The old man took him in and named him Calais Green.

"We just roam the fringes of the federal dumps, collecting items that we can sell for, every day." Calais fell into the memory.

All along, the old man taught him only the skill of scavenging, which was a skill on how to distinguish valuable items.

The dump is huge, and there are many waste pickers, and powerless waste pickers like Calais and the old man can only roam the most marginal areas of the dump, digging for treasures in the garbage heaps that others have picked up.

The two of them behaved well, and they never took a step beyond Lei Chi.

But even scavengers are subject to protection fees.

The two of them are also well-behaved, handed in on time, and their lives are also uneventful, hovering on the verge of hunger.

For a bite to eat, you have to spend a day in the garbage dump. As low-level garbage without federal citizenship, they can only survive like this.

The old man had a wish in his life, that is, to become a federal citizen, and he spent half his life scavenging, quietly accumulating savings, in a vain attempt to obtain a forged resident ID card from the black market.

But he met Calais, and this desire was transferred to Calais.

It has to be said that this is really good luck for Calais.

"But how can things go so smoothly." Calais smiled wryly, recalling the pain of that time.

The head of the land and the snake alternated, and the little boss who collected protection money was beaten to death on the street because he offended people, and no one dared to collect his body for him.

The little boss has collected ten years of protection money in this area, and he is also familiar with the old man, although the friendship is not deep, but the ten years of face to face also make the old man feel sorry.

In the end, the old man, together with Calais, found a plot of land for the little boss to bury.

The old man chose to let this little leader return to the loess, which drew an end to the turn of ten years.

A well-intentioned move, but it fell into the eyes of a new generation of leaders.

This is undoubtedly a disrespect to him.

One sunset, the little leader came to the old man's hut, beat him, broke both of the old man's legs, and increased their protection money.

Angry in the head, Calais wanted to go to the little boss to fight hard, but was stopped by the old man.

Since then, the old man has been bedridden.

The old man, who was missing his legs, was a wasted man, and the burden fell on Calais's shoulders.

That year, Calais was 13 years old.

Every day is on the verge of starvation, but Calais is still trying to take care of the old man and contribute to the old man's dream.

However, four years later, the old man fell seriously ill and died.

Before leaving, the old man told Calais about his dreams, and told Calais about his dreams after he had changed.

Make Calais a citizen.

"You don't go to him, take this money, go to the black head, let him fake the identity of a citizen for you, leave here, and never come back."

The old man's words before he breathed were engraved in Calais's bones like a knife. Holding the old man's withered and old hand, and looking at the old face that had closed his eyes, Calais silently sent away the old man who had adopted him for his kindness.

Tears fell, but Calais did not weep. There is no night darker than tonight.

So Calais sat here for the night.

The early morning sunrise coincides with the monthly charges of the small boss.

Calais stabbed the little leader to death with a dagger.

Calais picked up a long iron nail and nailed the little leader to the dilapidated wooden wall of their hut. Spikes pierced his throat, shoulders, knees. Calais is paying tribute to the dead old man in this way.

Burying the old man and picking up a piece of rubble as a tombstone, Calais leaves the dump where he has lived for more than a decade.

Remembering the old man's last testament, Calais found a man named Blackhead.

But he was still a step too late, and received a wanted warrant from the underworld, and the blackhead betrayed Calais to Maury in the slums.

Mori, the slum's big brother in the underworld, is in charge of the underground business of the entire Hildefa slum.

Of course, he will not ignore the death of his subordinates, otherwise how can he serve the public in the future?

In the face of Maury's pursuit, Calais spent all his savings, and with the help of the space station near Hildefa, Calais boarded the X-36 star that headed to the edge of the North Sky Star Field, and left this land where he had lived for more than ten years.

The 9th galaxy is already on the edge of the Northern Sky Galaxy, which can be described as a distant frontier and barren land. If it weren't for the fact that there was a colonized planet there, perhaps he wouldn't have been classified as a star field of the Federation.

"X-36, I think it was a high-gravity mine." Hearing this, Magnolia's eyes had changed a little, she didn't expect that behind Calais, there was such a story.

"Yes, the Green Snakes, an organization that specializes in receiving fugitives, stowaways, and transporting them to X-36 as absenteeism at high prices, I got on their ship."

Calais had no choice but to step on the Green Snake organization's spaceship.

"X-36, not only is the ultra-high gravity, but the rating of solar flares is also abnormally high, and the temperature difference between day and night is 50 degrees, and ordinary people can't survive at all."

Only by hiding in the pit can you withstand the heat of the day and the bitter cold of the night.

However, the cruelty of the X-36 is not limited to this, the gravity is not the same in different places, and the intricate mine tunnels will die instantly once they step into a place with unconventional gravity.

Arriving at X-36, Calais struggles with the brink of death every day, and several of the women he was traveling with in the early days have also died, either unable to withstand the high intensity of gravity or burned to the ground by the heat wave that swept across the surface.

Calais is not without grief, the death of his companion will inevitably lead to the death of a rabbit and a fox, but the environment does not have time for him to grieve.

"But it was also here that changed my fate."

It was here, under an abandoned mine, that Calais discovered the notes of his ancestors, the legacy they had left behind.

Countless ancient books.

Although it is an ancient book, it uses a common font of the Federation, but even so, Calais could not fully understand it, and the old man only taught him some basic words.

However, Calais, who discovered the ancient books, has grown by leaps and bounds, which allows him to complete his daily quest early and come here to study.

Day after day, two years passed, and Calais was 20 years old.
