Chapter 304

Welt asked carefully.

【Of course!】

【She was a distinguished scholar of memory dynamics, the first to apply the memory rate measurement method to interstellar travel.】

【Unfortunately, because of the Luminous Memory Court, ordinary people rarely care about the nature of memory.】

【In the end, she died unknown, leaving behind only a few thin notebooks.......】

【I came to Penacony out of admiration, endured countless hardships to find the Dream-Drifting Reef, all because this is where she passed away.】

【What a pity—had Lady Lazzarina been given more time, she surely would have found a way to reverse the flow of memory!】

【I feel it—the origin lies in...... the Golden Moment!】

【There is some anomalous presence stirring the currents of the Memory Domain.】

【I must provide a more direct proof......】

【I will surely convince everyone.......】

Stelle: "Lazzarina?!"

Stelle: "Isn't this one of the unnamed travelers we're looking for?!"

March 7th: "That's right, that's right!"

March 7th: "It's this exact name!"

Himeko: "Lazzarina, former cartographer of the Stellar Express."

Himeko: "I never expected to hear her name here at the Dream-Drifting Reef......"

Himeko: "What a pity....."

Furina: "Hmm..... according to this Miss Kemei's account."

Furina: "Lady Lazzarina has long since died unknown."

Pam: "Sigh.... I was mentally prepared for this, Pam."

Pam: "But hearing the news for real still makes me deeply saddened, Express Leader."

Pam: "Still, I knew her."

Pam: "She was an outstanding unnamed traveler!"

Pam: "Even if she truly passed away, she shouldn't have died unknown, Pam!"

Hu Tao: "Exactly!"

Hu Tao: "Lady Lazzarina, who inspired Miss Kemei to travel thousands of miles to Penacony in pursuit of her footsteps,"

Hu Tao: "could never have been an unknown person!"

Gallagher: "Hmm, she was also one of Penacony's heroes."

Gallagher: "But sadly, today's Penacony has betrayed her past sacrifices."

Gallagher: "And buried her deeds......"

Stelle: "Never mind. As the new generation of unnamed travelers, we will surely restore these pioneers' rightful names!"

March 7th: "Exactly right!"

March 7th: "We absolutely cannot let our predecessors suffer after death!"

Brother Dan Heng: "Um, have you all noticed?"

Brother Dan Heng: "Aside from Lady Lazzarina's fate,"

Brother Dan Heng: "there's another thing Miss Kemei mentioned that's deeply concerning......"

Nadezhda: "The Dream-Drifting Reef will be completely consumed by the Dream from the other side of the Great Hollow in ten system hours."

Nadezhda: "If this is true, then perhaps a disaster is about to strike........"

Robin: "Ten system hours later..... isn't that?!"

Goldsand: "Heh, yes."

Goldsand: "That's when the Harmonic Festival is about to begin."

Truth Doctor: "She was remarkable—using only memory dynamics, she calculated such precise timing."

Amber: "So that means..... she wasn't wrong?"

Truth Doctor: "The timing matches."

Truth Doctor: "Combined with the family's current irregularities,"

Truth Doctor: "it's essentially certain she was correct."

Truth Doctor: "Unless something unexpected occurs, this place known as the Dream-Drifting Reef will vanish completely in ten system hours."

Gallagher: "Tch, even the last shred of sanctuary won't they leave us?"

Gallagher: "Let's be honest—this is total annihilation!"

The video continues.

【.... Stelle, do you remember the name Lazzarina?】

After the exchange with Kemei,

Welt suddenly asked Stelle a question.

【One of the unnamed travelers the Express Leader mentioned.】

Stelle had not forgotten the name.

After all, it was one of the goals of their journey here.

【Yes, before setting out for Penacony, the Express Leader asked us to inquire about several unnamed travelers, and her name was among them.】

【It seems she conducted extensive research and calculations here at the Dream-Drifting Reef before passing away suddenly.】

Welt nodded,

Her expression was somewhat wistful.

【Young Lady Komei often mentioned her.】

【I heard that Madam Lazarina passed away during the Prison War...】

【If she could see Penacony as it is now, watching everyone build a home in the Reverie Domain... she would surely be very happy.】

Little Misha's tone carried a note of emotion.

【... Perhaps.】

Welt heard Little Misha's words,

and could only give an uncertain reply.

Because he did not know

whether the Penacony of today

was truly the kind of place Lazarina had hoped for.

【Our destination is the Trade District.】

【That's the most crowded place in Dewlight Pavilion — we might be able to find your companions there.】

Little Misha began leading the way once more,

taking everyone toward the Trade District of Dewlight Pavilion.

【Let me go......】

After arriving at the Trade District,

the three of them heard a terrified shriek from afar.

【Wake up! I'm begging you......】

Another helpless voice immediately followed,

and Welt and the other immediately recognized it —

it was March 7th's voice!

【G-g-ghost!】

【D-don't... come any closer......】

The three walked up not far from March 7th,

only to see a Pepeshi about to faint from being scared by March 7th.

【Sigh, I already told you I'm a living person, and you're a living person too — act normal, will you...】

【Ah! Uncle Yang, and Stelle, I've been waiting for you guys forever!】

After March 7th gave an explanation with a hand to her forehead,

she spotted Welt and Stelle walking over nearby,
