Chapter 325
Pom-Pom: "To think that the shy, reserved young man from back then could actually become Penacony's famous clockmaker, Pom..."
Pom-Pom: "This really doesn't match the him in my memory..."
Pom-Pom: "It seems that after getting off the train, he went through a lot too, Pom..."
Himeko: "Ragovock Schaefer Mikhail..."
Himeko: "Just as I thought — the name this senior left behind wasn't his full name."
Stelle: "The clockmaker is the last of the Nameless seniors."
Stelle: "Then wouldn't the inheritance he left us be absurdly much?!"
Stelle: "Could it be credits that wouldn't be spent in several lifetimes?"
Stelle: "Or perhaps, ownership of all of Penacony?"
Stelle: "In any case, I feel like our train crew is about to strike it rich!!!"
Paimon: "Wow!!!"
Paimon: "It feels like tons and tons of treasure are already waving at Miss Xiang Xing!"
Paimon: *sniffle* *sniffle*, so jealous, Paimon wants treasure too!."
Miss Qingque: "Stelle, if you become rich, don't forget us poor friends!!"
Guinaifen: "Right, right!"
Guinaifen: "We want to catch some of the rich person's glow too!"
Stelle: "Don't worry, don't worry, we're all good sisters, how could I forget you?"
Stelle: "Once I inherit the inheritance, I'll take you all out to eat the best and drink the best!"
Welt: "Uh... I'd advise you not to be so optimistic."
Welt: "Based on the style of us Nameless..."
Welt: "Duobanbu Society leave behind such ordinary inheritances..."
Amber: "Ordinary?"
Amber: "So in the eyes of the Nameless, material wealth is just the most ordinary thing?"
Zhong Li: "Speaking from a purely rational standpoint, the Nameless who walk the Path of Trailblaze likely care little for external things."
Venti: "Of course, what they value most should still be the spirit of Trailblazing!"
Venti: "So I guess... the inheritance this clockmaker senior left behind should also be related to the spirit of Trailblazing, right?"
March 7th: "Ah, this..."
March 7th: "But how can something as intangible as spirit be treated as an inheritance?"
Black Swan: "Hehe, Miss March 7th, have you forgotten?"
Black Swan: "In the dreamscape, anything is possible."
Black Swan: "Even spirit can be made concrete."
Brother Dan Heng: "Indeed... borrowing the hand of the dreamscape, many things can indeed be accomplished."
The video continues.
Stelle and the others step forward,
and meet the clockmaker Mikhail.
At this moment, Mikhail,
in the garden closest to the full moon in the water,
reclined in a lounge chair, silent and still.
He had already stepped into that endless long dream,
and no sound could wake him ever again.
【As expected... the clockmaker is the third Nameless, even I guessed that.】
Looking at Mikhail's peaceful face,
March 7th's expression grew somewhat complicated.
【The inheritance he left behind is a dream bubble; I guess inside it is stored something that only holds meaning for a Nameless.】
【After all, when I checked the contents, I found nothing inside at all...】
【It's probably some Trailblaze cipher again, even more mysterious than me.】
Gallagher pointed at the dream bubble Mikhail held in his arms,
and explained a few things to the three of them.
【Mm, let's take a look.】
Himeko nodded,
then gave Stelle a look.
Seeing this, Stelle understood Himeko's meaning.
After taking a deep breath,
she began walking toward Mikhail,
and reached out to touch the dream bubble Mikhail held.
However, she saw nothing at all from within this dream bubble.
This left Stelle somewhat surprised,
but she immediately adjusted her state of mind,
focused her attention,
and tried once more.
But they still found nothing.
This led her to conclude that this was merely an empty dream bubble!
【Huh?】
【What's going on....】
【Is there really nothing inside this dream bubble?!】
March 7th saw this scene,
and couldn't help but show a look of shock and doubt.
【....】
Himeko fell silent.
【How could this be?】
March 7th couldn't understand.
【Hmph, then again, it's exactly as expected.】
【He always had inexplicable faith in the Nameless Guest.】
【In his arrangements, the Trailblazer always had a place—I don't know where this confidence came from....】
【Even when he was alive, he never successfully contacted the Train.】
【I've never understood what this old man was thinking, but this empty dream bubble truly fits his style.】
【Filled with absurd fantasies..... and incomprehensible romanticism.】
【Old fool...... I never expected him to leave behind any contingency plan anyway.】
Gallagher watched this scene,
though he claimed not to care,
he still felt a certain degree of disappointment.
【No, Mr. Gallagher.】
【I believe Mikhail will have left us the most precious thing.】
After a moment of thought,
Himeko spoke to Gallagher.
【Hah, are you about to start spouting some grand philosophy too?】
Gallagher thought Himeko was overthinking it.
【Just as Mikhail believed in the future Nameless Guest, we will unconditionally believe in the past Nameless Guest.】
【They were willing to devote their entire lives to the land they loved—how could they depart hastily with regret for the future?】
【This dream bubble must contain something—we simply haven't deciphered it yet.】
