In a distant era of boundless expansion and unparalleled advancement, humanity thrived across the expanse of the Milky Way. With unmatched technological prowess and biological... more>> superiority, they shunned slavery and conflict, striving to spread their enlightened ideals to all corners of the cosmos. Yet, dissent simmered within their ranks, fueled by a deep-seated hatred for the methods by which these ideologies were imposed upon other species.
This prompted a bold exodus to a distant star system—our own humble solar system—seeking a fresh start. But fate dealt a cruel blow, shattering the unity of humanity across the galaxy in a cataclysmic calamity. Miraculously spared, our ancestors found refuge in the cradle of our solar system, where they embarked on a unintentional separate evolutionary path. Some viewed the loss as a regression, fearing a descent into inferiority. Others, however, glimpsed the glimmer of opportunity, recognizing the chance to forge a destiny free from the shackles of the past. As the eons unfurl, the true significance of this divergence will reveal itself.
Now, as the wheels of time turn anew, humanity rediscovers the lost art of spacefaring. Yet, looming on the horizon is the specter of their past—a resurgent human dynasty, wielding power and influence that threatens to engulf all in its path. Will we succumb to the echoes of history, fading into obscurity like so many civilizations before us? Or will we rise above the trials of our own inadequacies, charting a bold course into the uncharted depths of the cosmos, forging a destiny that defies the annals of time?

‘True was the cosmic tree beacon to protect and champion all the beauty of the stars. I know some will call me naïve, but I sincerely believe in that light.’

Unfortunately, not everyone likes omnipresent walking nukes playing bodyguards to humpback whales and starry-eyed kids with dreams to cure cancer. Facing the possibility of challenges, scum and villains from across the Astral Sea decide it is now or never to pave their brutal reign.

With the peaceful illusion out the windows, chaos inevitably knocked on the door.

Caught in the crossfire of the multiversal crisis, the Earth is shoved up the Astral Sea to meet its new neighbors—a grim escalator to a time bomb.

Considering this escalation, True's response is simple: first train the two schmucks from the planet Earth and build the taskforce to forklift those scums and villains down the comical mass grave.

One way or another—be it Earth’s prided capitalism, fusion-powered satellite laser, or their homegrown outer gods — the Order of True shall prove good is not toothless

Flint does, especially since he is one. But, Flint’s sense of purpose died along with him, and a century after his own death, he struggles to find meaning in his immortality. His galaxy’s interstellar war has been at a stalemate for nearly a hundred years, and nothing that Flint does in the conflict seems to make a difference.

But things change when Flint makes a shocking discovery that could give him the sense of purpose he seeks in his strange existence—a discovery so great that its mere existence could bring an end to the galaxy’s endless war.

Chased off his homeworld, Jonathan Jones escaped with a stolen Reaper-Class Corvette to start a life in space. 

Ever since the Link-Gates that connected the Sector to the rest of the Federation of Orion shut down, chaos has been the norm. There is no corner of the Sagittarius Arm untouched by economic and political strife, smuggling, piracy, illicit trading, and warfare. An unfortunate death is but the norm.

But Jonathan Jones is getting tired of dirty business to survive. Paranoid of authorities hot in his tracks, while seeking a proper meaning in life, his path intersects with a powerful ship AI Core undertaking an impossible noble mission to salvage what's left of the Sector. A mission perhaps too noble for an outlaw.

Synopsis: He was once a soldier on earth. The Ace Mecha Pilot. He was the strongest.

Noah. Code Name: Serpent-Bearer. One of the 13th constellations.

In the end, after a long prolonged war and many sacrifices. He managed to destroy the Mother Ship of the Parasite. Taking down the Parasite Queen with him as they fell through a wormhole.

This should have been the end. He should have died. Only…He didn’t.

Not only did he survive but he changed, irreversibly so.

He woke up on a strange planet with a companion he never wanted to have that would never leave him and now he fought and survived on a hostile planet filled with monsters out to eat him.

This life of survival lasted for years until one day, something changed. A star or rather a spaceship fell on the planet he inhabited.

This was going to be the start of his new adventure.

Noah's fate takes an unexpected turn when he forms a symbiotic bond with the enigmatic entity known as the Parasite Queen, granting him incredible power, but also a grave responsibility.

With their unique skills and unwavering determination, this eclectic crew sails the cosmic sea, pursuing ruthless pirates and relentless criminals who threaten the balance of the universe. Will they succeed in their quest to protect their home planet, or will the forces of darkness prove insurmountable? Join Noah, Morgiana, Alibaba, and an ever-growing crew in this thrilling space adventure as they, journey through the seven cosmos, fight pirates, confront a galactic empire, save princesses, and leave legends that will resound through the universe.
