"We're about to head to the next stop, aren't you excited?"
"By the way, this is your first trip, so you should be...double the excitement!"
"Oh right, I haven't told you about our destination yet."
"The train received an invitation from the family to attend the family's grand celebration—the Harmony Ceremony—in Penacony."
"As for the family and Penacony... let the all-knowing Dan heng answer those questions for you!"
On March 7th, she pulled Dan heng over.
The latter sighed, then recounted the story of his family and Penacony to stelle and Xun Yu...
Soon after, the train was ready and officially began its jump...
Although the train was on its way to the Harmonious Music Festival, the next destination was not Penacony, but a lush and beautiful planet recorded in the Archives.
Hmm... considering the last time the train traveled there was thousands of years ago, it's hard to say what that planet looks like now.
"Hey—hey hey! Everyone, please return to your seats, the jump is about to begin..."
"5...4...1!"
"That's the Jarilo-VI?"
On March 7th, looking at the snow-white planet in the distance, she picked up her camera and took a picture.
"Space readings are abnormal! Orbit stability has dropped to 12%!"
"The stop schedule has been changed. The stop time at this station has been extended from 7 days to indefinite!"
Pom-pom's words left March 7th with a helpless, downcast face.
"Sigh, it's the same situation again. Needless to say, the cause of this star orbit anomaly is also—the 'stellaron.'"
The stellaron, its impact will bring about drastic changes to civilization and ecology, and will also produce spatial distortion phenomena such as rifts.
No one knows where it came from; the train crew speculates that it is a scourge scattered across various worlds by some Aeon...
The Stellaron is known as the "cancer of all worlds," causing many planets to go from prosperity to destruction.
"Star, I hope to entrust this 'exploratory journey' to you, March 7th, Dan heng, and Xun yu."
"The purpose of the journey is clear: to find the 'stellaron', which has brought calamity to this world and caused spatial distortion, and bring it back to the train—leave the rest to us."
Himeko's arrangement made Welt sigh.
"It won't be our turn this time either..."
"I know you really want to go, but the young people should be allowed to walk around alone and get to know each other."
"Stelle, march, if you have no objections, why don't you go and talk to Dan heng and Xun yu?"
Suddenly, stelle raised her hand.
"Um, Himeko, it seems Xun Yu has already flown away..."
"Um?"
Himeko and the others looked in the direction the star pointed.
Xun Yu assumed an Ultraman flying posture, leaving a trail of colorful flames behind him, and flew towards Jarilo-VI.
"...."
A moment of silence fell over the train.
After a long while, Himeko coughed lightly.
"Now that Xun Yu has already set off, why don't you all hurry up and go find Dan Heng?"
After watching the three leave the train, Himeko looked at Welt.
"I have a feeling this expansion won't be peaceful."
"With Xun Yu present, there shouldn't be any major problems... but that's not necessarily true."
"Xun Yu: Creation Engine.jpg"
Xun Yu: Look at the amazing treasure I found on Jarilo!
Welt: !!!
Welt: I'm getting off now.jpg
Welt looked at the message Xun Yu had just sent, and then thought about his own identity...
"The instruments detected undeniable Emanator-level energy fluctuations within the child. As for his personality"
"Although we haven't known each other for very long and the kid is a bit unreliable, I can tell that he's not a bad person at heart."
"No envoy fluctuations were detected on the train on the Jarilo-VI, and with the two of us here, there's no need to worry too much."
Worried? Actually, he was more eager to see that giant mecha...
Sigh, let's wait until they find the star core on March 7th before we have another chance to go.
With the "boundary anchor" of "exploration", returning to Jarilo doesn't take too much effort.
...
Meanwhile, on a snowfield in Jarilo.
"Kafka, are you sure we can succeed? That guy survived two planet-destroying shots from the herta, we..."
"Don't worry, Elio said we won't die here."
"Moreover, it's just an attempt, more about getting to know him."
Kafka recalled what Elio had said back then.
Elio told him that Xun yu was special, and that he usually only had fragmented pieces of information about his "future"...
This person is a big variable, but also a "constant".
Elio didn't explain much, only saying that if they couldn't get rid of him, they should spend more time with him...
Kafka had her doubts, but seeing that Elio had no intention of explaining, she had no choice but to give up.
Elio must have his reasons for doing this...
"Alright, according to Elio, he should be arriving soon."
Silver Wolf had no hope for this operation.
How could things be so easy?
This isn't a game where you can just give him a bunch of negative stats and easily crash his plane...
"SAM, all ready."
SAM's emotional voice came through the headset. Kafka clasped her hands together and looked at Blade beside her.
"Listen to me: Release, mara-struck."
"Well!"
As blade clutched his face in pain and let out an incomprehensible roar, Xun Yu's figure appeared in the sight of the four stellaron Hunters present.
"Huh... that gold belt around his waist that looks like a taiyaki (fish-shaped pastry)..."
Silver Wolf looked at the thing on Xun Yu's waist and couldn't help but recall some things he had seen before.
"Oi, it seems everyone's waiting... You guys have no sportsmanship!"
Xun Yu was about to make a flamboyant opening remark, but the blade, trapped in the mara state, rushed over without a sound and cut him down with a single sword strike.
Immediately afterwards, SAM, who had already fully charged up, delivered a "Supernova Overload" to him.
A series of exhilarating combo moves brought Xun Yu down.
"Hahahaha! Aha knew it, Aha knew it!"
Aha laughed at the sight.
This scene of interrupting the dialogue and the transformation was really interesting.
Of course, Xun Yu was the one who was interrupted most often.
"...That's it?"
Silver Wolf stared in disbelief at the large, still-silent pit.
"No, of course it's not that simple."
Kafka shook her head, looking ahead with great interest.
Countless phantom images of clocks appeared in the air, then vanished, the watch straps coiling into a sphere...
A mechanical sound rang out, but something about the word seemed off.
"A moment of blessing!"
"Cheating! Awesome! Invincible!"
"The most benevolent! The most virtuous! The most supreme! The most powerful king!"
"OhmaZi-O" (pirated)
The figure of Oma Zi-O (bootleg) appeared in the four people's sight.
"Dude, can you really transform?"
While Silver Wolf was still in a daze, he fired a quantum cannon.
Silver Wolf's response was...
"The final moment!"
"Oma Zi-O's Ultimate Attack!"
Silver Wolf looked at the flying kick coming towards her and her little face fell.
Trade a basic attack for your ultimate?
