Chapter 432
The cabin remained still, each soul suspended between awe and contemplation. Jack’s eyes drifted over the endless starscape, his hands resting lightly on his knees. The DragonJet hummed softly, carrying them through the void as though the universe itself were holding its breath.Finally, Jack opened his eyes, letting a small smile curl his lips. “And that, my friends… is the essence of what I wanted you to understand. Time, space, spirit, responsibility… they are threads of the same tapestry. Observe carefully. Live consciously. Choose wisely. That is all we can do, and it is everything.”A quiet ripple of awe passed through the cabin. Even Ryan, usually brash and skeptical, leaned forward, nodding slightly, as if absorbing the weight of Jack’s words. Sarah squeezed his hand gently, her presence grounding him in the human world even as the stars stretched infinitely beyond.Then, after a long pause, a small voice broke the reverent silence.“Jack?” Matilda’s voice trembled with curios
Chapter 431
The soft vibration of the DragonJet seemed to slow, like the universe itself was pausing to listen. Starlight poured through the panoramic glass, bathing the cabin in a silvery glow. Everyone sat transfixed—Lena’s fingers clutched her pendant, Jackson’s pen trembled over his notebook, Emily’s breath came slow and shallow. Even Ryan, usually skeptical, was silent.Jack’s gaze remained on the stars. His voice carried that deep, reflective calm that only comes from someone who had seen too much—and understood even more.“The ancients,” he continued, “once said that gods walked among men—not as rulers, but as teachers. I used to think that was myth. But maybe… they were people who simply awakened before their time. Souls who remembered who they were.”Emily frowned slightly. “Remembered?”Jack turned to her, his expression kind. “Yes. Remembered that we are not separate fragments scattered by fate—but reflections of the same source. Consciousness wearing different faces, speaking through
Chapter 430
The DragonJet’s hum deepened, the steady rhythm of engines pulsing like a heartbeat in the stillness of space. Beyond the windows, stars shimmered like ancient eyes—silent witnesses to everything that was, is, and might yet be.Jack leaned forward slowly, the soft light of the holograms reflecting off his face. His eyes held that rare gravity that made everyone instinctively quiet. “…Now,” he said, voice low but resonant, “we move from physics… to what lies beyond it.”Ryan raised an eyebrow. “Beyond physics?”Jack nodded. “Metaphysics—the study of what reality truly is, beyond what instruments can measure. The part that science hints at but cannot yet touch. The bridge between matter and meaning.”Emily tilted her head. “You mean… the soul?”Jack smiled faintly. “In a sense, yes. Every civilization that ever reached for the stars has asked the same question: What animates existence? We know the universe runs on energy and matter. But consciousness—the part that observes, dreams, choo
Chapter 429
The DragonJet hummed softly, a quiet companion to the endless stars outside. Days blurred together — or at least, the faint simulations of day and night did. Three months aboard had given them perspective not just on planets, but on time itself.Jackson’s gaze lingered on the swirling stars beyond the window. “…Jack,” he murmured, hesitating, “if time is relative… if it moves differently depending on speed or gravity… does that mean… one day, humans could travel backward or forward in time?”Jack’s expression softened, fingers tracing invisible patterns in the air as he brought up a new hologram: a lattice of spiraling timelines, branching and intertwining. “Time travel… in theory, it’s possible — but it’s complicated. Einstein’s relativity allows for time dilation — moving forward relative to others — but traveling backward introduces paradoxes.”Ryan sat up, rubbing his chin thoughtfully. “…Like the grandfather paradox? Where you go back and… change something, and then you never exi
Chapter 428
The DragonJet drifted silently in the void, the vastness of space stretching beyond the cabin windows. Days had bled into nights — or at least, the faint simulations of them — and they had been aboard for nearly three months. Time had begun to stretch and fold in peculiar ways, a subtle reminder that space did not follow the rhythms of Earth.Jackson leaned against the hull, eyes tracing the distant streaks of starlight. “…Jack,” he murmured, voice hesitant, “we’ve been out here for months, but it feels like days. How… far are we from Mars? Or from Earth, really?”Jack swiped the holograms, revealing a 3D projection of the inner solar system. Mars floated as a rusty orb, Earth a brilliant sapphire nearby. “Distance depends on alignment,” Jack said softly. “At closest approach, Mars is about fifty-five million kilometers from Earth. That’s 55,000,000 kilometers… or roughly 34 million miles. At the DragonJet’s maximum cruising speed, we could traverse that in a few months. But in realit
Chapter 427
Jackson blinked at the darkened window, his pencil resting on the page. “…Jack,” he began slowly, “if life is so dependent on balance… why do planets even have atmospheres? Why not just… nothing, like space?”Jack’s eyes flickered, thoughtful, as if he’d been waiting for the question. He swiped the air, and a translucent layer of colored gases appeared around Earth in the hologram, shimmering in the dim cabin light.“Atmospheres are like… the lungs and shields of a planet,” he began, voice soft, almost reverent. “They trap warmth, hold water, regulate temperature swings, protect life from radiation, and even deliver chemicals essential for life — oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen. Without an atmosphere, oceans boil, organisms fry, ecosystems collapse. And few planets can hold one for more than a few million years.”Matilda leaned forward, eyes wide. “So… the air itself is a kind of… organism-support system?”Jack nodded slowly. “Exactly. Every molecule matters. Wind moves nutrients, ra
