All the crew members were happy as they had successfully evaded the life threatening danger of the asteroid belt.

While they were cheering themselves up Vice captain Dilip called out to everyone: “Guys come here I have something to show you all.”

Everyone frowned as to why the vice-captain was calling them and why he was so serious and went to him to look at his screen.

Dilip said: “Please take a close look at this, Captain.”

Captain Siddhant came and looked at the screen on Dilip’s workstation and saw and his eyes widened in surprise and shock.

Arjun, Bharat and Anjali all were confused exactly what Dilip showed the captain that made him give this kind of reaction.

Siddhant said: “Is this what I am looking at and is this true Dilip? Are these really the Asura ships which you have identified?”

Siddhant had a look of disbelief as he was not able to believe on his own eyes what he was seeing.

Vice-captain Dilip said: “Yes captain these are indeed Asura space ships and they are already here. It seems like they might have come here to look for the source of the energy essence as well since prior to this the Asura space ships were not seen in this area of the Galaxy on this large scale.”

Siddhant thought if the Asura had really got the information of the presence of energy essence in the Desolate space of the Dark Dimension then it will be impossible for them to take the energy essence from them since they were in the Dark dimension now and Asura’s were one of the main species in the Dark Dimension of all the evil beings.

Even if they hadn't come here for the energy essence, it would be difficult for them to get out of this situation because they don't know how long the Asura space ship will be roaming around in this territory because they won't be able to conduct any kind of searching activities in their presence, so Siddhant was unsure what his next course of action would be.

Also, they were very close to being discovered by the Asura Spaceship, and if they were, it would be a much bigger problem because there was only one space ship, whereas the Asura's had so many spaceships with them that if they were discovered, it would be a guaranteed loss of the mission as well as loss of life of all the crew members.

Captain Siddhant without wasting any time commanded Anjali: “Anjali activates the space ship's invisible mode and tries to steer the spacecraft as far away from the Asura Spaceship as possible while keeping an eye on them from afar to ensure that they do not see us at any cost. Also, attempt to figure out what they're doing here and if they're heading towards the Tamro planet.”

Anjali said: “Yes captain.”

Anjali quickly activated the space ship's invisible mode and steered the space ship away from the Asura space craft that could be seen, and she also activated the space ship's spy cameras and locked on the Asura space craft to keep an eye on them.

Vice-Captain Dilip said: “Captain now that the Asur space ship has come to this area we do not have any chance in discovering the energy essence so we should head back and come out of the Dark Dimension while we are still alive.”

Siddhant did not want to abandon the mission and head back and not only the captain but all the other team members wanted to continue the mission.

Bharat stated once the space ship was placed up at a safe distance from the Asura Space craft's group: “Captain I think we should carry on with the mission, don't worry, we'll do everything we can to get to the Tamro planet and get the specified Energy essence as directed by the Interdimensional Warriors' headquarters.”

Vice-captain Dilip interrupted and said: “Stop your nonsense. Bharat, can't you see that there are already a number of Asura Space ships patrolling in this area? We don't have a chance to even go close to the Tamro planet now, so we must abandon our mission and return to our own dimension to return to Earth.”

Captain Siddhant said: “Vice-Captain Dilip, of all people, I never expected such cowardly words to come from you because you are the Vice Captain of this group and you should be a role model for your team members and encourage them to complete the mission, but you are doing the opposite and demoralizing them.”

Dilip was outraged with Siddhant for being publicly chastised in front of the team members for the second time, and he said: “It appears that you are just blinded by these new team members or that you do not want to see the reality, and if that is the case, you are incompetent for the role of captain and should step down because a captain's job is not only to complete the mission but also to ensure the safety of each and every member, and it appears that you are trying to endanger the lives of all the members for your selfish personal gain that you will receive after the mission is completed.”

Siddhant said: “First of all if we are successful in this mission every single member will be benefited from the success and not only us but the whole of humanity will be benefitted. Secondly if we are unsuccessful in this mission then not only it will be our loss but a big blow to the humanity since if the Asuras and the other evil beings are able to get their hands on the energy essence then they will get stronger and might get freed from the Dark Dimension and if that happens they will first enter into our Dimension and then the humanity will face a big challenge or might be on the verge of extinction so it should be our moral responsibility to make sure that the evil beings should not get the energy essences at any costs.”

Siddhant further continued: “And my Third point is that who said we are in danger at this point in time and how can you say that the Asura’s can discover our ship. We have still got as much chance as before to reach the Tamro planet it’s just that it will be a bit difficult to reach our destination without catching the eye of the Asura’s and it is definitely possible since we have done countless stealth drills to face this kind of situation so we will not back out of this and that is my final decision.”

Bharat was grateful to Siddhant that he supported his idea of continuing the mission and liked his captain’s determination and courage in the face of imminent danger.

Bharat, Arjun and Anjali said together: “Captain, we agree with you to continue our mission of finding the energy essence.”

Dilip did not say anything since everyone on the ship had agreed with Siddhant to continue the mission so he also had to give in and proceed with the mission.
