A door opened on the leading imperial ship, and Nico flew out to welcome them.
Bertram brought his vessel to a stop, and as soon as the entrance opened, Nico stepped inside with a broad smile.
"Welcome to the Northern Star Region, Caelus! I'm glad you came."
Caelus smiled as he glanced at the imperial ships outside.
"You brought quite a few ships just to say hello."
"Haha, they were already patrolling the area. I simply joined them when I heard you'd arrived."
Nico greeted the others before turning his attention back to Caelus.
"Still, I would have been rather disappointed if you never used that card I gave you."
Hearing this, Caelus chuckled.
"Well, we heard about your famous Cell Energy Pool. Since we were planning to come here anyway, I thought we might as well visit you and the emperor."
"So the pool gets all the credit?"
"You can share some of it."
"Hahaha! I'll take that."
Nico laughed before giving Bertram the route to the imperial palace.
