Seeing this, Stelle shudders, remembers the news she learned when she first boarded the Express, and subconsciously nods.

Welt Yang looks at Stelle, sighs helplessly, and says: "That Lady Ciyu is clearly just joking, don't take it seriously."

The Astral Express.

The Parlor Car.

"This conductor does not agree, Pom!"

Looking at the barrage in the livestream room, Pom-Pom also discovered that the animal tail in Aventurine's mouth was actually herself!

Thinking of this, Pom-Pom can't help but say angrily and somewhat fearfully: "This woman named Aventurine is really too scary, Pom!"

"No, must stay away from this woman, Pom!"

"And Trailblazer Stelle, must make it clear to her that this conductor's tail definitely has no effect on resurrecting Akivili, Pom!"

Thinking that in the plot, Stelle seems quite interested and is still thinking about whether there are scissors on the Express, Pom-Pom can't help but sweat.

Looking at Pom-Pom jumping anxiously, Himeko smiles and comforts her: "Conductor, don't worry, Stelle isn't the type to be reckless. Although she likes to joke sometimes, she will never hurt the conductor."

Pom-Pom also gradually calms down at this time, and a few traces of loneliness flash in her eyes: "If Akivili could really be resurrected, this conductor would agree even if I really sacrificed my own tail, Pom."

"However, that nasty woman, she was clearly just joking, Pom."

【In the game's story, looking at the Trailblazer who is lost in thought and silent, Aventurine smiles gently: "See you again, Miss Stelle."】

【Stelle is still thinking about the feasibility of Aventurine's previous words, not even caring that Aventurine has already said her real name.】

【However, it can be seen from here that Aventurine indeed knew Stelle's identity from the beginning.】

【The conditions mentioned before were probably just the rare humor of this Lady Ciyu.】

【After leaving Aventurine's room, by the pool at the stern of the Radiant Feldspar, Stelle met Argenti, the Knight of Beauty.】

【Seeing Stelle's figure approaching, Argenti waves his hand and greets her with a sincere tone, praising: "We meet again, my dear friend. You have already walked out of a style even more profound than mine on the path of 【Beauty】, I pay my respects to you from the bottom of my heart!"】

The Luo Fu Xianzhou.

Inside a tavern where players gather.

An adult Xianzhou man looks at Argenti who appeared, listens to his elegant and sincere tone, and says: "I've wanted to say it for a long time, this Knight of Beauty named Argenti is too good at praising others."

The companion beside the adult Xianzhou man also nods and says: "Not only does he like to praise people, but he also says it extremely sincerely. Speaking of which, are all Knights of Beauty like this?"

A player at the table next to them says: "Perhaps it's because this Argenti is a person who is good at discovering beauty. Moreover, if you carefully review the Trailblazer's experiences and actions, you will find that although what Argenti says sounds exaggerated, it can be considered well-deserved."

A Foxian man says somewhat puzzled: "It's just, clearly Argenti is the one walking on the Path of 【Beauty】?"

The Foxian man's companion says: "Perhaps, in Argenti's eyes, everything the Trailblazers do conforms to the path of 【Beauty】 in his heart."

Another player laughs out loud and apologizes: "I really can't help it. I don't have any malicious dissatisfaction with Argenti, it's just that listening to him talk, I can't help but..."

【Listening to Argenti's undisguised praise, Stelle scratches her head somewhat embarrassed and says: "I also pay my respects to you, my dear friend."】

【Argenti looks at Stelle, listens to her words, and continues to praise: "Even after achieving such extraordinary accomplishments, you are still humble and peaceful... what a chivalrous act!"】

【"I have heard of your feat of leading everyone to defeat the Omen. Although the story sounds regrettable, you undoubtedly upheld 【Beauty】 and justice. May Idrila show you a smile."】

【Hearing the term 【Omen】 from Argenti, Stelle is a bit confused. Is this a unique title for the Knights of Beauty?】

【Argenti explains: "If those who pursue 【Beauty】 lose their way on the path of pursuing power, they will fall into the appearance of an 【Omen】, neither human nor beast."】

【"Although that Mr. Sunday has no intersection with the path of 【Beauty】, his actions are no different from an Omen. A pathetic soul who has lost his way on the path of goodness... it is truly sigh-worthy."】

Livestream room.

"Sigh! Mentioning Sunday, my heart is also exceptionally complicated."

"Perhaps just as Argenti said, Sunday is a pathetic soul who has lost his way on the path of goodness."

"Sigh, to be honest, when I heard Sunday mention the Seven Holidays, my heart subconsciously felt excited, but it's a pity, the result was ultimately like a dream bubble."

"The so-called Seven Holidays, if everyone rests and plays, society probably wouldn't be able to function, right."

"Although the Seven Holidays sound beautiful, they are actually not realistic at all."

"Don't talk about reality, Sunday's matter tells us that even in a dream, such a world cannot arrive."

"Saying this, my heart is even sadder."

【Listening to Argenti's words, Stelle nods. Suddenly, she remembers something and says: "During the final battle, why didn't you come?"】

【After all, with Stelle's understanding of Argenti, upright as he is, he definitely wouldn't have watched Sunday's plan succeed.】

【A flash of imperceptible sadness passes through Argenti's eyes, and he says slowly: "I am ashamed to say, that 【Dream of 'The One'】 was truly realistic. I couldn't bear to say goodbye to my deceased friend who had already turned into a beast, and I actually lingered in that ethereal dream for a long time..."】

【Speaking of this, Argenti shows a rare self-deprecating smile: "Heh, Ada's appearance and smile were truly too vivid."】

【However, Argenti is not a person who indulges in sadness. At this time, he has already cheered up and says: "I failed to pass this trial of 【Beauty】 and spent a lot of time reflecting on my wavering. I hope Idrila is still willing to be a banner for me and hone my determination for 【Beauty】."】

The place where the Astral Express crew is.

Welt Yang looks at Argenti in the game's story and sighs silently.

Welt Yang can feel this feeling to some extent.

March 7th also sighs: "I feel... Argenti's dream is so heavy."

"Seeing the deceased old friend in the dream, perhaps Mr. Argenti also vaguely sensed it, but just couldn't bear to break it."

Dan Heng also sighs: "From here, it can also be seen that Sunday's Dream of 'The One' is indeed extremely powerful. Even a firm and seasoned Knight of Beauty like Argenti found it hard to bear to break it, let alone others."

Welt Yang adjusts his glasses and says solemnly: "This is all thanks to Tiernan and the help of the Galaxy Rangers, otherwise it would indeed be a difficult task to shake the will of everyone in the Dream of 'The One'."】

Livestream room.

"Damn, why do you have to stab me at such a warm and happy time."

"Mr. Argenti is also a person of temperament."

"To be honest, I might understand Argenti better. If I really sank into the Dream of 'The One' and saw those deceased relatives and friends, I might be the same as Argenti."

"From here, I can't help but sigh, even Argenti found it hard to quickly break free from the Dream of 'The One', most ordinary people are probably even harder to break free."

"That's why I admire the Galaxy Rangers even more. What kind of firm will does it take to do all this?"

"They are all amazing people. If I could have the fate to meet the Galaxy Rangers in the future, that would be great."

"Haha, this possibility should increase greatly next. Didn't Boothill say it? After this turmoil in Penacony, the Galaxy Rangers can be considered to have officially come out of retirement again."

The Luo Fu Xianzhou.

The Seat of Divine Foresight.

Jing Yuan looks at Argenti's words in the game's story and sighs gently.

He truly remembered his former master and friend—

(If that incident hadn't happened back then, would we all be completely different now?)

【Listening to Argenti's words, Stelle also has a complicated expression. After saying goodbye to Argenti, Stelle came to the lounge chair by the pool.】

【Thinking that the ceremony hasn't started yet, it's fine to rest for a while.】

【Suddenly, a crisp and gentle voice sounded behind Stelle——】

【"Hi, we meet again."】

【(This voice is...)】

【Stelle listens to this voice and turns around quickly, only to see a familiar figure appearing before her eyes.】

【Gray hair like a waterfall, beautiful face, it is Firefly.】

【Seeing Stelle turn around, Firefly also smiles and says: "It really is you, I knew I didn't recognize the wrong person before."】

【Stelle says somewhat confusedly: "Who did you mistake me for?"】

【Firefly shakes her head and affirms: "It's you yourself. I saw you opening treasure chests, hitting balloons, playing Dream Ticker, it shouldn't be that I saw wrong... right?"】

【"There's still some time before the Charmony Festival opens, want to chat?"】

【Regarding this, Stelle naturally has no objections.】

Livestream room.

"How could there be any objections!"

"This is Miss Firefly, hesitating for a second is a disrespect to Miss Firefly and a distrust of oneself."

"Hehehe, walking with Miss Firefly, so envious."

"And there's more before, in the Golden Hour, Miss Firefly had a great time playing with the Trailblazer."

"Although the hidden secrets hadn't been revealed at the time, the happiness couldn't be fake. Thanks to Miss Firefly, the Trailblazer wouldn't be running around like a headless chicken."

"Sigh, I remembered when Firefly and the Trailblazer were on the rooftop of the secret base again. That photo, it's so beautiful."

"Hehehe, I saved it at the time, and I take it out to admire it from time to time."

"Me too."

【Subsequently, Stelle and Firefly walked and talked, and when the view became wider, they stopped.】

【Firefly and Stelle discussed their experiences in Penacony along the way, and couldn't help but sigh: "... two 【homicide cases】, a duel with the IPC envoys, the inheritance of the Nameless path, a remnant of 【Order】 who wanted to replace the Aeon to create a paradise—you guys even shattered the dream in the end... it's truly a magnificent holiday."】

【After sighing, Firefly also showed a smile, looked at Stelle and said: "Fortunately, you guys successfully solved these problems, congratulations. After the Charmony Festival opens, you guys should be setting off again, right?"】
