Chapter 154 Lost in Space...Again 1 (1/2)

John woke up covered in cold sweat and trembling.

”Why did I dreamt about my graduation?” He muttered while his tired eyes scanned the surrounding.

It took only a moment for him to realize he was in the Crafting Room of the spaceship.

And he slept while sitting in one the chair of the room while using the touchscreen keyboard in front of him as a pillow.

He moved his hand to rub his eyes and felt something slipping from his body and falling on the ground.

John looked down and saw it was a blanket.

When he fell asleep while working, someone came by and put on a blanket over his body.

His hands clutched the blanket as he deeply looked at it.

After taking everything in, John looks up and freezes when he saw Lenny leaning by the door of the room with his arms crossed and staring at him.

”It was Forge that put it on you,” Lenny said as he pointed with his chin at the blanket in John's hands.

”Oh...” John was surprised for a moment before nodding.

Lenny looked at John's situation and asked, ”Nightmare?”

”Yes...” John weakly answered while wiping the sweat from his forehead.

”That assassin?” Of course, John knew who Lenny was talking about. It was none other than Mouro, the one that tried to kill both of them in the Lunar Mining Facility 12.

John's first kill that often invaded his dreams and turned them into nightmares. The frequency of nightmare got even worst after John went through that illusion in the swamp when he was in the Great Hunt.

”No, worst.” John's face twisted a little when he heard Lenny commenting about that event, but, as soon as his face worsened, it recovered to normal, ”Earth...”

”Huh? That sounds bad, indeed.” Lenny walked by John and stopped at his side, ”Can you think of any reason as to why you had this nightmare?”

”Probably because the situation we're right now kinda reminds me when I just escaped Earth's destruction and was all alone in outer space with a damaged spaceship.”

After John managed to flee from the Miniknog's pursuit and activated the FTL Drive, they soon found themselves stranded in a foreign place.

John tried to see their coordinates with the Navigation Console and the map Itsuki gave to him...there was nothing in the map.

Even though John could clearly see the massive planet made of gas right at their side, there was nothing about such place the map, nothing at all.

It was like someone purposely erased this place from the map.

John was curious, and even though he wished to explore around and see if there was something Itsuki or Letheia is hiding something, he simply couldn't make the spaceship move. After all, the only engine that wasn't damaged was the normal one.

To get out of their place, they had first to fix the engine. Secondly, they need fuel, Erchius Liquid Fuel.
