Erich and his team made their way back to the hotel which they were staying out. In comparison to the strictly utilitarian architecture and interior design of the Germanic Star-Empire, one could definitely use the term "wasteful" to describe the overwhelming degree of luxury that was in their rooms.
For the sake of the mission, and to maintain their cover as an executive, and his bodyguards, the Empire went out of their way to provide appropriate lodgings for the team. Which included a presidential suite designed to house six people.
Because of this, the team of elite operators stared upon the neon lights of the decadent city, which was the capital of Alpha Centauri. Erich could hardly believe that he was staying the night in such a degenerate place, and felt dirty because of it.
Independence Day is tomorrow, and because of that, my family has been celebrating the last few days. Meaning that it is a four-day weekend. I will only be posting one chapter today and tomorrow. But come Wednesday, and I will be back to my normal schedule. I thank you all for your patience, and your continued support, and look forward to writing more Interstellar Age for you all. For those of you who are Americans like myself, happy independence day!
