purposes.
- Oh well. Go on, this is getting interesting.
“As you know, in order for Invir to convey experience, the power of magic and knowledge, he must spend some time in a state of lower form of existence. Invirs transferred to the lower form are sent to the star system Markaley and Zhuzhey (to one of their colonies). Of the hundreds of Invirs, two or three return alive, and then if we have time to pick them up in ten or fifteen days. Of all my sons and daughters, no one has returned. But the youngest daughter met on the colony with Ambassador Alex and General Leah. When I arrived ten days later, I saw that she was not in danger. She is under reliable protection of Earthlings (although they believed that it was she who protected them).

- Galka!
- Yes, Ambassador Alex. That is the name you gave her. And for a whole year she was under your safe guard. But this colony was attacked by Marcali. Usually such attacks are transient. Suddenly, they attacked, destroyed the security ships and shuttles, looted the bases and flew off, until help arrived. But this time it was different. Despite the fact that Markaley’s security was interrupted in the mines, not a single shuttle of Zhuzhey returned from the planet to the ships. And while their ships were awaiting the return of the shuttles, the help was led by Admiral Bull.

Naturally, all the ships and rescue shuttles of Zhuzhey were destroyed. Somehow, only the Marquis of Zhuzhey managed to escape to the planet. Later, I found out that Ambassador Alexei had already destroyed both Markals' ships, pursuing the Marquis (knocking them together) near the surface. And the marquis captivated. But in the footsteps of the Marquis was an admiral with a dozen fighters. Ambassador Alex, along with General Leah and the Marquis, were forced to fight. From which they emerged victorious, except that they did not abandon my daughter. The admiral interrupted her legs in battle, but General Leah and the ambassador cured her. Even when they flew away, they did not abandon her, but took them with them. Moreover, they did it very nobly: they released the admiral alive and unharmed. I would never have left that scoundrel alive. I could not take my daughter unnoticed from them. Yes, and she would not agree to just leave General Leah. Transition Invirs from the lower kind of existence is a sacrament, and no one (except for close relatives) should know who, how, when and who returns to the highest form of existence. This is something akin to transmigration.

But her daughter became so attached to General Leah that she would not want to return to her former highest form, just to be close to the general. Intelligence reported to me that the admiral decided not just to destroy the Earthmen’s fleet, but the entire civilization. I had to hint to my colleague, Invir nodded his head toward the cat, that Bul is about to kill his chief of staff. But fortunately it was the other way around. Under the command and with the support of the fleets, the commander of the Alliance and the Arihons, the admiral's fleet was destroyed, and Byul was killed. In addition, the scouts of our Alliance reported that there was someone from Invirov of the lowest form of existence near General Leah. And the emperor of humans personally appealed to me for help in the destruction of the civilization of earthmen.

He was absolutely sure that I would agree, motivating it with the fact that Earthlings subjugate Invirs to themselves.And in order to completely destroy the Earthlings, he will send the killer to the past, from which Ambassador Alex has arrived, and then the Earthlings can be destroyed without problems. But if Alex is killed in the past, my daughter will die without him (for there will be no one to protect her on the colony of Markaley). I had to tell a colleague about imminent danger. And together we organized Ambassador Alex’s guard in the past and the elimination of the imperial killer. And to gain time, let the emperor on the wrong track. They sent the twins of Alex's family to Zhuzham, but my daughter went there too. After entering the three-dimensional space near Zhuzhey, I was able to replace my daughter with an elite fighter who tried to behave similarly to her. I saved my daughter, but earthlings were still in great danger. If I refused the emperor, it means he will turn to the commander of the enemy Alliance, which in fact has nothing to do with the Earthmen. And there are plenty of those who want to destroy a weak opponent at all times.

“The history is tearful, but if we hadn’t arrived just in time, then a devastating war would begin between civilizations of different levels of development.” And then not only Earthlings would cease to exist, but also many other civilizations, including higher ones.
“Elder Drago, we are to blame.” And we know the laws. If you said that they already had an outstanding commander, then a new one (or rather a new one) was born. I solemnly swear to you, - Invir bowed his head respectfully, - that I will do my best so that, in terms of their level of development, Earthlings become equal to my civilization.
- I hope that you will keep your word. And it’s already time for a colleague and me - both elders “dissolved” in the air, as if there were none.

“We are almost at full strength,” Lia began, “there is no only Commander of the Earthlings.” But I'll call her now.
After a moment, Violet was here.
- President strongly raged?
- Not. She merely growled that the ambassador would always get into some kind of trouble.

- Then everything is fine. Before we start discussing the upcoming battle retribution, I ask all commanders to take some precautionary measures. In all fleets it is necessary to transfer all observation ships to combat mode. Just jumps scout in the solar system, instantly destroy it. Your new ships cannot appear here, guests are not expected. So any ship that appears is an enemy ship. In addition, if the first three scouts are destroyed, the rest will not be touched and imitated by everyone to leave home, and as “guests” low-speed ships will be attached to high-speed ships. Everything should look like flying home. And no long-distance links. All this should be explained to your deputies immediately, until the first intelligence officers appeared. Phaeton!
“Yes, Commander,” came the voice of the onboard computer of the ship from the shuttle located not far away.
“Urgently provide the commanders of the fleets with communication channels, each with his own,” ordered Lia Phaeton.
- I do.

After that, everyone simultaneously and unquestioningly began to explain to their deputies what to do and how. All this was done mentally, as the Phaeton distributed this info, I did not even delve into it. And how they communicated, without interfering with each other, is also not clear. Of all the "warm" company, I just missed. Even Leah was busy. She managed to eavesdrop on what the commanders explained, and in the case of a hitch, to prompt. I even had a vague suspicion that the dragon had endowed her with something. Soon all orders were given. And then the discussion went on how they would fly. How and where to jump in three. How to act in the case of detection of enemy ships and anti-space defense bases. And also if the enemy will have alien fleets in the def.

Then the discussion began on how to deal with the civilization of humans in the event of victory.We decided not to apply any repressive methods to them. But they must be led by "our man." Leah suggested Girman. Violetta did not agree. Then it was proposed that Violetta take the place of the fleet commander. She broke a bit (like any woman), but agreed. They invited Guirman, explained to him that he was “without him and married”. In surprise, his eyes were seventy kopecks. While this discussion was going on, the tracking ships detected the appearance of reconnaissance ships, which they immediately destroyed. Fleet commanders (except Varkan) flew off to their flagship ships to prepare for departure.
Pauchara stayed and for about an hour passed on to Lia his knowledge, skills and strength. At the same time, he suggested that I should transfer everything (the initiative was his own). I objected that time was running out. After all, soon it will be necessary to take off. But he assured that no extra time would be needed. If Leah and I are side by side, the transfer process will be parallel. Having fulfilled what his lord ordered him, Varkan immediately flew away to his flagship. And we are with Leah to the president. They brought her an apology, told that they had prevented the betrayal in Stetenov. And after that scattered on their ships. Preparations for the flight was in full swing.

Finally started. Lia ordered Violetta to leave half of our fleet in the protection of the Earth. But no one wanted to stay. Outrage began, almost a riot. But rescued Vyalis. He proposed to leave damaged, but combat-ready ships from all fleets in the protection of the Earth (so as not to carry with them). Then fly in a calm atmosphere and take them home. So did. Indeed, in any battle, the wounded is a burden for the rest. But do not throw the wounded. And so they are in business and in the rest there will be no headache for these ships.

All the ships Invirov, Stetenov and Varkanov jumped out in three-dimensional with the invisibles turned on. Anyway, the guard ships of the Men raised the alarm. But what could make half a thousand ships against six thousand? Almost all of them were caught in power traps. And the most aggressive destroyed. Considering that the ships of Men and their commanders were with us knew the deployment of most of the anti-space defense bases, these bases were destroyed by the first shots. And then the negotiations began. And at the beginning of these negotiations, the Humans claimed that the emperor was alive. But it turned out to be just a double. The battle lasted less than a minute, and negotiations with representatives of the Humans lasted more than a day. As Leah supposed, Girman became the king of men. Violetta fleet commander. If Girman ascended the throne without strong indignations, then Violet had to "win" his right to command the remaining fleet. Many commanders did not want to submit to a representative of a different civilization. And she proved with her knowledge of cosmonavigation, the device and the performance characteristics of ships, commanding skills and even force.

Vasilisa was appointed commander of the Earth space fleet. Although she and Vyalis were separated in different fleets, Vasilisa agreed. And those who wished to take her place from among the earthly commanders quickly put them in their place. She easily surpassed all of them not only with fighting skills, but also with knowledge of the tactics and strategy of space battles. But what is most interesting, all the crew members of the Humans, who were subordinate to Earthlings, wished to return to Earth. As an additional protection of outer space, a thousand Earth ships remain in orbit. The rest, including the squadron of Girman returned to Earth. Invir, shared his knowledge and skills with Leah (and then she with me) and invited them to stay with them. We promised, but later, when we choose the time, and Galka wanted to meet. In the meantime, home, home and again home.
