Black Swan: "It seems everyone has their own different understandings of dreams and reality."
Black Swan: "This point, indeed, makes me very happy."
Black Swan: "Then allow me to ask one last question. If, at the beginning of the journey, you already knew the outcome of this trip,"
Black Swan: "Would you still embark on this journey without hesitation?"
Black Swan repeated Acheron's last question, leaving it for everyone to answer.

"Yanqing, if it were up to you to answer this question, what would you say?"
Luofu, Divine Foresight Department.
Jing Yuan looked at Yanqing, who was standing ramrod straight beside him, and asked in a testing tone.
"This… this question General, allow Yanqing to think about it carefully."
Yanqing was stumped and quickly started to rack his brain, thinking seriously.
.. . ..
Belobog—
"Brother, what are your thoughts on this question?"
Inside the mechanical room, Serval looked at the newly arrived Gepard,
And asked curiously.
"Sis, this question is a bit difficult to answer. I haven't thought it through yet."
"Do you have any unique insights? Why don't you share them?"
Gepard currently had no answer in his mind, so he wanted to hear his sister's opinion.
"Me? If I were to answer…"
—
—✦Omniscient Viewer's Chat Lodge✦—
Serval: "If I were to answer, then my answer would be yes!"
Serval: "Because I believe that the outcome is not important; what's important are the experiences during the journey!"
....
—✦In Between✦—
"Is that what Sis thinks? It really is her style."
Gepard couldn't help but smile knowingly when he saw Serval's comments in the live stream.

Yanqing: "Yanqing's view is contrary to this teacher's."
Yanqing: "My answer is no!"
Yanqing: "Because Yanqing believes that if the outcome is known before setting off,"
Yanqing: "Then all of this loses its meaning."
Yanqing: "Embarking on the journey again would just be a waste of time."
Yanqing: "It would be better to use the sharp sword in hand to forge a new path leading to a new outcome!"
In the Divine Foresight Department, Yanqing pondered for a while, and gave his opinion.
Paimon: "Your analyses are all so reasonable!"
Paimon: "If Paimon had to choose, I'd choose yes!"
Paimon: "Just like Miss Serval said, Paimon just wants to travel with Lumine forever, so I don't care what the outcome will be."
Lumine: "Mm-hmm, Paimon's thoughts are my thoughts!"
Sampo: "I agree with young master Yanqing's point of view. Walking a path with a predetermined ending is simply a waste of life."
Hanabi: "Hai, hai~ A known fun becomes uninteresting! You know."
Hanabi: "So why should I spend my effort on this? With this time, I'd definitely go find some new fun~"
Welt: "My choice is yes! Because this is Trailblazing!"
Welt: "I think this is also the answer every Nameless would choose, right?"
March 7th: "That's right, this is our collective answer as Nameless!"
Dan Heng: "Indeed, it is."
Himeko: "I agree."
Stelle: "I OBJECT!! I insist on giving a different answer!"
March 7th: "Born rebellious, are we? Objection OVERRULED!!"
....
—✦In Between✦—
"I told you, can't you be a little more serious! Everyone's on the same side, why are you being special?"
On the Express, March 7th looked at Stelle, feeling both annoyed and amused.
"Because I'm a different kind of fireworks!"
Stelle looked at March 7th and replied profoundly.
"A different kind of fireworks? I think you're more like ghost fire!"
"Alright, alright, stop messing around, and behave."
March 7th looked at Stelle as if she were looking at an idiot.
She couldn't help but reach out and affectionately pat Stelle's head.

Black Swan: "Thank you all for your answers."
Black Swan: "This is a valuable memory for me."
Black Swan: "I will remember all your answers! And seal them within 'Memory'."
Black Swan thanked them solemnly.
....
—✦In Between✦—
"Memory? Could this Miss Black Swan be from the Garden of Recollection?"
Welt saw these words, and couldn't help but guess.

『 The video continued to play. Shortly after Stelle woke up, Pam walked over to her side.
[ Pam: Trailblazer Stelle, what's wrong? Why… why are you suddenly crying? ]
Pam looked at the tear stains on Stelle's face, a little flustered.
[ Stelle: I was cut by someone in my dream… ]
Stelle said with lingering fear.
[ Pam: It… it sounds like you had a nightmare! To encounter something like this just after arriving in the Asdana system… you must be more careful, it seems your resistance to memoria is very poor. ]
[ Don't worry, dreams and reality are opposites. While you were sleeping, the Express has already arrived at Penacony… ]
Pam saw that Stelle's face looked a bit pale and comforted her. 』
『 ....』
—✦Omniscient Viewer's Chat Lodge✦—
Stelle: "Wuwuwu, I shed tiny pearls, how embarrassing."
Stelle looked at herself crying in the video and felt a bit shy.
March 7th: "Good girl. Don't cry. You were cut by a bad woman, so you got scared."
Acheron: "…I really am not… a bad woman."
Himeko: "Then, Miss Acheron, why did you cut Stelle in the end?"
Acheron: "Most likely, it was just to wake her from her dream."
Acheron: "I said, I'm not good at manipulating dreams. So, if that scene in the video really happened, besides that method, I had no other way to wake her."
Acheron looked at the people in the live stream who still thought she was a bad woman, and felt a bit helpless.
Stelle: "Stop talking, I believe she was helping me!"
March 7th: "Huh? Why would you think that?"
Stelle: "Because, the way she drew her sword was really cool!"
March 7th: "…"
Dan Heng: "…"
Himeko: "…"
....
『 [ Pam: …The frontier prison of yesteryear has now become this luxurious hotel. Although I, the Conductor, am also very curious about Penacony's current appearance, I can't get off the Express after all… You two go and experience it thoroughly for me. ]
Pam gazed at the grand hotel entrance outside the train window, and said a few words to Stelle with a somewhat wistful tone.
[ Pam: Pack your luggage, you can get off anytime. Remember to go find Trailblazer March 7th in the back, she's waiting for you to set off together. ]
Turning around, Pam reminded Stelle. 』
『 ....』
—✦Omniscient Viewer's Chat Lodge✦—
Lumine: "Why can't the Conductor get off the Express?"
Welt: "Uh… because of some… unspoken restrictions."
Paimon: "Does that mean Conductor Pam has to stay in the carriage alone? That's too sad!"
Pam: "Sad? I think it's alright? I'm used to it."
Pam: "Besides, isn't Trailblazer Dan Heng keeping me company?"
Dan Heng: "Yes, I do intend to stay on the Express."
....
『 Stelle, having received Pam's instructions, began to look for March 7th.
[ Stelle: Is March 7th still packing her luggage… ]
On the way, Stelle couldn't help but mutter.
[ March 7th: Stelle, you're awake? How are your preparations coming along? Uncle Yang and Sister Himeko have already gotten off, I'm waiting for you here to set off together. ]
[ What do you say, shall we go meet up with them now? ]
In the Express corridor, March 7th saw Stelle arrive and couldn't help but urge her.
[ Stelle: I'm ready, we can leave anytime. ]
Stelle said without hesitation.
[ March 7th: Mm-hmm, 'Planet of Festivities' Penacony, the largest and most luxurious amusement park in the entire universe, here we come! ]
Having received Stelle's reply, March 7th immediately pulled her luggage and, with cheerful steps, ran towards the Express door.
And Stelle, in turn, followed closely beside March 7th.
They walked off the Express together, then passed through the hotel's main entrance, going through layers of security checks, finally, they entered the hotel together.
[ March 7th: Ugh… we're finally here! The Family's immigration procedures are too complicated, aren't they? There were dozens of checks, big and small, and my suitcase was searched four or five times… ]
[ I was even worried they'd insist on taking out the Stellaron inside you to look at it. ]
March 7th thought of the incredibly tedious checks they had just endured and couldn't help but complain to Stelle.
[ Stelle: Luckily not. ]
Hearing March 7th's words, Stelle said with some relief.
[ March 7th: In a sense, the Family is truly very accommodating…. ]
Thinking that Stelle, with a Stellaron sealed within her, could enter the hotel safely, March 7th felt that the Family was indeed incredibly tolerant.
[ March 7th: But the hard work wasn't in vain—this hotel lobby is too spectacular! Are those countless rooms? How many people must be staying here? ]
March 7th's gaze swept over the hotel's interior, and she was immediately awestruck by its grand scale.
[ March 7th: I wonder which room is ours. Let's go, Uncle Yang and the others must be queuing at the front desk, let's hurry and meet up! ]
March 7th began to pull Stelle towards the front desk.
But on the way, Stelle encountered a hotel bellhop who greeted her warmly.
[ Welcome to the Reverie Hotel, may you have an unforgettable vacation experience! If you wish to check in, please proceed straight to the hotel front desk. ]
The bellhop bowed, his tone very respectful.
[ Stelle: Is that the child from my dream? ]
Stelle was a bit surprised and stopped to talk to the bellhop. March 7th, meanwhile, continued towards the front desk as if nothing had happened.
[ I am Misha, a Penacony service attendant, it's a pleasure to serve you. If you require luggage assistance… ]
The bellhop first introduced himself to Stelle, and then intended to ask if Stelle needed luggage assistance.
But, before he could finish, March 7th, who was near the front desk, called out to Stelle.
[ March 7th: Stelle, hurry over, something seems off… ]
March 7th's voice was a bit low, as if something unpleasant had happened.
[ Misha: …If you require luggage assistance to your room, you can find me anytime. Go, don't keep your friend waiting. ]
Seeing this, Misha smiled slightly and said to Stelle.
Hearing this, Stelle nodded at Misha, then went to March 7th's side. 』

Robin: "Stellaron?!"
Robin: "This Miss Stelle actually has a Stellaron inside her?!"
Robin: "And she even entered Penacony in the future?!"
Thinking of the conversation between March 7th and Stelle in the video, Robin was somewhat shocked and even more worried.
Stelle: "Oh no, I've been exposed!"
Stelle: "Now I'm going to be blacklisted by the entire universe."
Stelle: "Wuwuwu, please don't blacklist me, okay?"
Stelle: "This Stellaron inside me is really well-behaved! (Pleading.jpg)"
Seeing that the news of the Stellaron inside her had been revealed, Stelle immediately started to play the victim in the live stream.
Sunday: "Miss Stelle, I sympathize with your predicament, but Penacony cannot tolerate potential crises…"
Sunday: "So…"
Stelle: "So, you're going to blacklist me?"
Sunday: "Heh, not exactly. The Family has always been inclusive of everything! But the premise is that you can prove that the Stellaron inside you is indeed not dangerous."
Stelle: "That's it? No other requirements?"
Sunday: "Isn't that enough?"
Stelle: "Alright, that's simple. I, the famous Galactic Baseballer, am well-known and have connections all over the universe. I can easily find a few important figures to vouch for me."
Stelle: "Now, I'll randomly call out a few fated individuals to help me testify!"
Stelle: "Ms. Herta, step forward! General Jing Yuan, step forward!"
Stelle: "Let me think who else… Oh right! All members of the Express Crew, step forward!"
Stelle's actions were as fierce as a tiger, directly calling out several names.
Herta: "What? You want me to help testify? What will you give in return?"
Stelle: "I'll make time for you to test me more often when I get back!"
Herta: "Alright, I can vouch for her. The Stellaron inside her is not dangerous, that's it."
Jing Yuan: "Haha, Stelle is one of the Xianzhou Alliance's most important distinguished guests. As a Xianzhou General, I am also willing to vouch for her."
Himeko: "On behalf of all members of the Express Crew, I vouch for Stelle! If any consequences arise, the Express Crew is willing to bear them all!"
Everyone called out by Stelle was very cooperative, all willing to vouch for her.
Sunday: "Heh heh, since so many people are willing to vouch for you, then Miss Stelle, Penacony will not restrict your arrival."
Sunday kept his word and did not prohibit Stelle from entering Penacony.
