I opened a shop on the Astral Train-Chapter 103

The group arrived in town, met the mayor, saw Liuying, encountered the robin who was supposed to be dead, and Sunday, who had been brought by Gallagher. They also visited the tombstones of the three former nameless guests.

Under Gallagher's leadership, the four members of the train group reached the place where Misha had died.

Meanwhile, Kevin, Liuying, Ying, and Hu Tao explored Liumeng Reef, hoping to find treasure chests containing some Stellar Jade.

Kevin, March 7th, Himeko, and Welt climbed to the highest point of the garden, where they found Misha's body and the dream bubble in his arms.

Gallagher spoke.

"This dream bubble is what the old man left for you. I've looked inside—there's nothing there. Maybe it requires you nameless guests to open it? Some kind of secret key or code."

Himeko turned to Kevin.

"Kevin, give it a try."

Kevin reached out and touched the dream bubble. The result was disappointing—there was truly nothing inside.

"There's nothing here."

Everyone was puzzled.

At that moment, Misha ascended the stairs with the clock boy.

"Of course, there's nothing inside—because what was inside ran out and didn't stay around."

He smiled knowingly.

"He heard the train whistle and couldn't wait to see the train and meet the nameless guests.

Dear guests, we meet again. I am Misha, the doorman of the hotel. But you may also call me by another name—Misha."

March 7th stared in disbelief.

"Are you Misha, senior?"

She glanced at the old Misha in the wheelchair, then back at the young Misha before her. They looked so alike, yet it made no sense.

Himeko and Welt had already understood.

Misha continued.

"I am a small microcosm of Misha's life."

"Years ago, I boarded a train and traveled across worlds. I was fortunate to share that journey with great people.

I'm sorry—the watchmaker's legacy is a lie. But if there is anything that could serve as a legacy, it is the faith that still burns in this old heart.

The hands of the clock move forward and backward, just like people's doubts, troubles, and weaknesses.

Like your hands, they always fall forward.

The pioneering journey will never end. With your will, continue to explore.

And I will watch you quietly as you reach even greater horizons."

Welt caught onto something in Misha's words.

"You said you will watch us reach a more distant future—what do you mean by that?"

Misha smiled slightly.

"Yes, I met Yuri before this and learned from Pom that he is a great man. He gave me a body, allowing my memory to live on within it."

Himeko was surprised that Misha had met Yuri. She looked at Misha and smiled.

"Misha, welcome home."

March 7th beamed and waved excitedly.

"Misha, welcome back."

Welt and Kevin also expressed their gratitude for Misha's return.

Misha nodded.

"Go, do what you must—rescue those trapped in the dream."

Himeko, Welt, and the others nodded firmly.

Misha smiled.

"Good luck to you. See you on the train."

Himeko, Welt, March 7th, and Kevin left Misha's resting place.

In the theater, Kevin, Himeko, Welt, Ying, and the others gathered.

They were attending a ceremony held by Suleda Production Company.

Through the ceremony, they could enter the depths of the theater and seal the star core.

Kevin and Liuying were paired together.

Liuying noticed Kevin was distracted.

"Kevin, what's on your mind?"

Kevin didn't hide his thoughts.

"I wonder if Senior Misha has Stellar Jade. He's traveled to so many worlds."

Liuying pondered for a moment.

"After this is over, you can ask him when we're back on the train."

Kevin nodded, deciding to do just that.

The two continued participating in the competition, eventually arriving at the entrance of the Grand Theater after defeating a certain 'Galaxy Street Slicker.'

Meanwhile, Acheron and Black Swan encountered Dr. Ratio, a long-lost Sea Patrol Ranger.

Dr. Ratio glared, pointing a revolver at Acheron's forehead.

"You dare show yourself before me? I'll kill you in one shot."

Acheron sighed.

"I'm sorry. I was searching for you to return a relic. But I could never find your trace."

Dr. Ratio's eyes narrowed.

"So, you paraded around under the Sea Patrol Rangers' name, hoping we'd come find you?"

Acheron didn't deny it.

"Yes. And it turns out, I was right."

She removed a pendant and handed it to Dr. Ratio.

"This belonged to someone dear to you. I don't know its purpose, but now I can finally return it."

Dr. Ratio hesitated, then took the pendant. He examined it, a rare smile appearing on his face.

"Of course, you wouldn't know. This is a symbol of heroism. Only those who have made great contributions to the Sea Patrol Rangers receive it.

When it rises, no matter how far, the Sea Patrol Rangers will gather.

Because when it rises, it means a hero has fallen, and injustice remains."

Acheron and Black Swan listened, now understanding its significance.

At that moment, a hole opened beside them, and a small hand reached out, snatching the bullet away.

"Hahaha! This looks fun! Let Aha play with it!"

Before Acheron could react, Aha had already disappeared.

In the night sky, a bullet soared like a shooting star, followed by countless glowing streaks.

Each streak represented a gathering Sea Patrol Ranger.

Dr. Ratio froze.

"Damn it! Who dares steal from the Sea Patrol Rangers?!"

Black Swan chuckled behind her hand.

"Didn't He say His name was Aha?"

Acheron sighed.

"I couldn't stop Him. I didn't even have time to react."

Dr. Ratio finally processed what had happened.

"Damn it! It was really that Fun Star God?! Damn it!"

Meanwhile, Kevin and his friends saw Sunday giving a speech.

"In my view, the ideal society should follow a 'seven-day weekend' system."

"The day after Sunday is another Sunday, then another, and so on forever."

"This is the face of the new world—a day of eternal peace with nothing to do."

Aha, Hua Huo, Yuri, and the six children watching the spectacle clapped their hands in admiration.

"Good! Well said!" Hua Huo jumped excitedly, clapping.

Aha continued.

"Aha has recorded it. Aha will post it on the company's website so all the workers can see it. Hehe, this is going to be fun. Aha loves fun~"

Sunday frowned slightly as he looked at Hua Huo and the others.

"Fools. Well, since you're here, bear witness."

Sunday slowly turned, rising into the air. Countless spirits drifted out of the "rooms" around the theater.

In an instant, the entire theater collapsed, revealing a massive mecha standing before everyone.

Kevin drew the Judgment of Shamash and locked eyes with Sunday.

"Everyone, get ready!"

God Lord Sun raised his baton, conducting the chorus into a powerful performance.

Notes materialized and surged toward Kevin and the others.

Kevin slashed forward.

"Judgment of Shamash—Destruction!"

Kevin wasted no time unleashing his power, but Sunday's strength was far greater than expected.

Sunday waved his baton slowly, directing the Qi Xiang Choir to launch another attack, forcing Kevin back.

Kevin landed and immediately charged forward again.

Himeko aimed at Sunday and fired the rail gun.

The Star of Eden in Welt's hands gathered immense energy, forming a black hole. Welt flung it casually, the gravitational force pulling God Lord Sun's body.

March 7th pulled out her bow.

"Sun Shooting Arrow!" She drew back the Houyi Bow and released several light arrows, piercing Sunday's hand, forcing him to drop the baton.

Sunday swiftly grabbed it with his other hand.

He hadn't expected the nameless guests to be this strong.

There was no other choice—he had to use his final resort.

"All creation has been completed!"

"First day."

God Lord Sun folded his arms, protecting his core as he began a countdown.

Kevin sensed danger and rushed forward, but the surrounding souls swarmed him, blocking his advance. The spirits of the Qi Xiang Choir were relentless, willing to sacrifice themselves to stop him.

Finally, the countdown reached its end.

"The eighth day."

God Lord Sun gazed skyward, and the heavens tore open. A colossal hand, radiating a terrifying aura, emerged.

Himeko shouted.

"Be careful! The big one's coming!"

At that moment, a water dragon cut through the sky, knocking Sunday's baton from his hand once more.

March 7th turned and saw the Immortal Boat Company breaking through the clouds, their fleet arriving.

Dan Heng, Jing Yuan, Fei Xiao, Huai Yan, Zhongli, and Venti who hovered high in the sky.

"Dan Heng! You're finally here!"

Dan Heng gave a slight nod.

"Mm. Let's end this together."

Jing Yuan smirked.

"I didn't expect the family's conspiracy to run this deep.

Xianzhou Alliance! Attack!"

At his command, the Xianzhou fleet opened fire, bombarding God Lord Sun.

Fei Xiao pulled out his axe and grinned.

"Victory lies ahead!" He summoned his God Lord and charged, swinging his axe down onto Sunday.

Jing Yuan and Dan Heng attacked in unison, a water dragon coiling around Jing Yuan's God Lord.

"Brilliant and powerful spirit!"

"Azure Dragon's Purge!"

Huai Yan stroked his beard.

"Time for an old man to move his bones."

The combined attacks struck God Lord Sun, severely wounding him.

Welt noticed that the mecha was absorbing dream energy to repair itself.

"This won't work. We need to shatter the Taiyi Dream, or he'll keep recovering."

At that moment, music filled the air. The robin stood on a high platform and began to sing.

As one of the two chosen by God, the robin's melody shattered the choir's ensemble.

Himeko seized the opportunity.

"Everyone, now!"

Kevin led the charge. He and Fei Xiao leaped from opposite sides, slashing down at God Lord Sun with sword and axe.

Under their combined assault, the mecha was finally destroyed.

Sunday gazed at Kevin, who stood before him, still gripping the Judgment of Shamash.

"Why does life sleep?"

Kevin sheathed his weapon.

"Because people always wake up from dreams."

After the battle, the two systems had merged.

Sunday vanished, and the robin was tasked with overseeing the Harmonious Music Ceremony.

The Xianzhou Alliance, Liyue, Mondstadt, and the train group returned to the Astral Express.

As they counted their spoils, it was clear that their journey to Penacony had yielded great rewards, including an abundance of Stellar Jade.

Zhongli set down his teacup and glanced at Venti.

"Barbatos, it's time to begin the planetary transformation."

Venti, who had been playing music for the six children, nodded.

"I know, old man."

Jing Yuan and Huai Yan spoke up as well.

"We need to return to our original route. We'll need time to process everything once we return.

Speaking of which, Mr. Zhongli, the planet you chose happens to be along the Xianzhou Alliance's path.

I'll have to pay you a visit then."

Zhongli gave a small smile.

"You're most welcome. Do as you please. I must return to Teyvat."

Bidding everyone farewell, Zhongli and Venti departed for Teyvat, seeking Asmodeus.

They found her in an internet café, engrossed in a game.

Zhongli spoke calmly.

"Your Highness Asmodeus, we must begin the planetary transformation."

Asmodeus barely glanced at him, her fingers flying across the keyboard.

"Go away~ Can't you see I'm busy? I can transform the planet anytime. But if I lose this match, I'll never live it down!"

Zhongli sighed, realizing she was locked in an intense match. The game had been going on for an entire day, and neither side had relented.

He could only wait.

Finally, as dusk settled, Asmodeus claimed victory.

"Little guy! You thought you could beat me? I am the invincible Asmodeus!"

She clapped her hands and stood up.

"Alright, let's go transform the planet."

Zhongli raised an eyebrow.

"Shouldn't we call the others?"

Asmodeus snapped her fingers, summoning the Ice God.

"Right now, the four of us are enough—land, wind, plants, sky, and water. Furina's situation is special. Barnabas, you take charge and melt the ice."

Barnabas immediately understood.

"Understood."

Zhongli nodded. Indeed, for now, this was enough.

Thunder and fire could be added later.

For now, the four of them would lay the foundation for a world where people could thrive.
