Fan and Stelle walked together. While walking, he saw a reflection in the window of the space station—a girl, about the same height as March 7th. Fan didn't pay much attention and kept walking, but then realized... there's only space outside.
He moonwalked back.
The reflection was himself—more accurately, it was his Minecraft skin. Thankfully, it wasn't blocky. After a moment of staring, Fan checked everything. Nothing had changed… except his face and hair. He was still a man
Stelle siad to fan "Bro, what are you doing? Let's keep walking."
Fan quickly caught up to Stelle.
Fan replied to stelle "Let's go."
They walked along. While walking, he asked his system, "Can I change my skin?"The system replied: Yes. You can also edit or create a new one.
After a while, they reached Himeko.
Himeko siad to stelle "You're awake. March thought you were gone before even joining us."
Stelle replied to himeko "This galactic baseballer can never die from such creatures."
The phrase galactic baseballer just came to Stelle's mind—random, but it felt right.
Himeko chuckled.
Himeko replied to stelle "Awake and already so lively. Well, someone else is coming. They'll be arriving soon."
A voice came from beside them.
???: "I've only been gone, what… a few months? And the space station is already in this state?"
Fan looked a siad "And who's this kid?"
Himeko siad to fan "This is the true master of the space station—Genius Society Number 83, Herta."
Herta said to himeko"At least give me a proper introduction. Genius Society Number 83? After all my outstanding achievements, that's all you want to mention?"
Stelle wispered to fan "Genius Society sounds like a nerd came up with the name."
Herta changed the subject.
Herta:"So this silver-haired twerp has the Stellaron now?"
Herta checked Stelle's body.
Herta: "Hmm… truly amazing. I built a whole space station to contain this unactivated Stellaron and keep the blue from disaster… yet someone was able to achieve that with this little twerp's body. How did they do it?"
Himeko said to herta "Moreover, the Stellaron is very stable inside his body."
While Himeko, Herta stelle talked, Fan was trying to open YouTube to watch a video—then realized he didn't have a phone. So he just played around with his system.
He edited his skin, giving himself a black suit—to look cool, naturally in his past life he wached too much solo leveling.
After a while, the three girls finally finished their conversation. Stelle and Himeko approached Fan.
Stelle said to fan "Bro, where did you get the suit from? Did you rob a passerby or something while we were talking?"
Himeko said to fan "I'll be going first. Bye. Let me know if you want to join us. You'll have time to think. There's no need to rush things."
Fan and Stelle explored the space station. After some time, they walked toward where the train was located.
They approached Himeko.
Himeko: "So, have you two thought things through?"
Stelle nodded.
Stelle said to himeko "Yes. We would like to join the Astral Express."
Fan hadn't even said if he was joining—but even if he did speak, he would join the Astral Express.
March 7th walked in as she stretched. Wait—March 7th? Where did she come from?I don't know. Probably was somewhere. This is a filler. Nothing interesting, so don't mind.
Everyone entered the train. In the window, March waved to Herta, Arlan, and Asta, who were outside watching them as the train set off.
Fan and Stelle heard a voice.
???: "Ahem, ahem."
Stelle looked around.
Voice: "I'm over here."
It was a small, rabbit-like creature with white fur on its face, neck, stomach, paws, and the underside of its ears. The rest of its visible body was grey. It wore a large red hat with a gold gear-like decoration and a black brim, along with a red and black coat. A gold pocket watch hung from its left side, and a red band was on its left ear. It had large blue eyes.
Stelle looked at the creature, dumbfounded. Fan didn't really care.
Pom-Pom said to fan "Hey—you over there, trying to act nonchalant. Yes, Pom-Pom is talking to you."
Fan looked at the short, bunny-like plushie creature.
Pom-Pom: "I'm Pom-Pom, the conductor. Come find me if you two need any help."
Pom-Pom gave them both stelle and fan a golden ticket.
