"What are you talking about? Are you still half-asleep? The Order's beautiful dream is over." Remembering what had happened not long ago, March 7th still felt a lingering fear. "Even though a day has passed, I still break out in a cold sweat when I think about it. The Astral Express Crew's The Trailblaze journey almost ended right here in Penacony..."

"You're so carefree, still able to sleep soundly. I'm traumatized. Last night, I didn't even dare to close my eyes, afraid that if I fell asleep, I would never wake up again."

"You'll get dark circles under your eyes," Star kindly reminded.

March 7th huffed proudly, "This young lady is naturally beautiful; I won't get dark circles!"

During the time Star was asleep, the Stellaron had been sealed, and the public had no idea what had happened, only feeling their memories were a bit blurry. The Family's official statement was that "The Charmony Festival was attacked by an unknown Stellaron and was forced to stop"—which served to placate the public.

Currently, the four great families outside of Oak are trying their best to quell the aftermath of the incident. The Astral Express Crew was also invited to sit on the Family's Radiant Feldspar as witnesses to participate in important talks.

Speaking of the Radiant Feldspar, March 7th's eyes practically glowed. This airship was only accessible to the Family's distinguished guests who could ascend to the bow and admire Penacony's beautiful scenery. Not only that, but the Family also sent souvenirs and a fruit basket, including an exquisite button model.

Hunter x Hunter.

"A button...! It couldn't be..."

"Yes, it's exactly what you're thinking. It's Sparkle... Perhaps the people from that Family were also disguised as Sparkle." Killua's gaze shifted from Celestial Screen to the bustling street outside the hotel window. "I'm afraid she's probably the most upset about The Charmony Festival being interrupted, isn't she? If it's not held, wouldn't all her bombs be for nothing?"

"Are the Masked Fools all so persistent? But blowing Penacony sky-high wouldn't benefit her, would it?" Gon sat cross-legged on the floor, his eyes full of incomprehension at the The Fool's actions.

"They're just a bunch of lunatics who play with their lives; there's no need to try and understand them. Looking back now, I think Sparkle might have already calculated the current situation. Now that Penacony has no protection from The Order, Death truly exists... If she detonates the bombs, she could really kill many people."

Killua's voice lowered slightly: "But if it were under the protection of The Order, then the so-called explosion would just be a dangerous joke. Sparkle probably wanted to see people's truest, most fearful side..."

"That's too wicked!"

Killua propped his chin, recalling seriously, "The The Fool's actions cannot be simply defined as good or bad. I've also wondered what those The Fools ultimately want. Thinking broadly, they want fun. Thinking narrowly, what they want is probably that 'astonished, bewildered, and perplexing' look in people's eyes that inadvertently appears after they see their actions, right?"

In the Golden Hour, Firefly stood by a high railing, as if an invisible barrier separated her from the bustling, noisy city below.

Her eyes were indifferent; the ceaselessly moving vehicles, the guests singing and dancing with abandon, and the never-ending prosperity failed to stir the slightest ripple in her gaze.

Just then, the air beside her suddenly twisted, and Silver Wolf's projection appeared out of thin air without warning, greeting her simply.

"Such decadence, just like Epsilon. How is it? Is it consistent with the Dream you imagined?" Silver Wolf said, looking at her while blowing bubbles.

"You asked that question when we first arrived here," Firefly said.

"Yes, I remember your answer then was 'No.' But after all that's happened, I think you're quite fond of it. Still, a reminder: don't forget you're still on the Hound Family's wanted list; keep a low profile."

Firefly nodded cautiously.

Silver Wolf continued: "And this time is different from before. The person in the photo isn't Sam, but Firefly—for you, this should be quite a novel experience, shouldn't it?"

"Indeed, in Kafka's words... this is also a 'missing part' of my life." Firefly looked down at Silver Wolf. "However, not being able to move freely is still quite inconvenient. Silver Wolf, can you help me?"

"I knew you'd say that—don't worry, it's already taken care of. I've hacked all the systems and left no trace. Don't do anything eye-catching, don't provoke any guards who remember you. Follow these two rules, and no one will pay attention to you; you can go wherever you want."

"Thank you."

Silver Wolf smiled softly: "You're welcome, Ms. Samuel—haha, I like that alias." She paused, looking down at the prosperous city below. "Our mission in Penacony is complete. What do you plan to do with your free time now? I heard people from the Genius Society have also arrived. Do you want to come play big with me?"

"You know, my script isn't over yet."

—

Attack on Titan.

"Not over yet? Does Firefly have to die again?"

Eren was a bit confused. Wasn't Sunday already defeated? Penacony had returned to peace, with no more threats, right? He had even thought that Elio's script might have a problem one day, but now the script was still continuing, which was very puzzling.

Could it be that they were going to fight the Company next? Although that woman named Ms. Jade looked like a scheming, wicked woman, as of now, she hadn't shown hostility towards Star. Firefly probably didn't need to provoke her, did she?

...Judging solely from her tone, Eren felt that Ms. Jade was also an incredibly powerful person. She and Topaz had complete Cornerstone, and their combat prowess would definitely be more exaggerated than Gold Dust's back then. Firefly probably couldn't beat the two of them.

"No, it's probably related to Sparkle, isn't it? Her bomb is still buried in Penacony." Armin narrowed his eyes, deep in thought. "...Is she trying to blow Firefly up?"

...This idea felt a bit naive.

Anyone who knew Firefly's true combat power probably wouldn't believe that a "bomb" could kill her, right? The temperature of the Molten Knight armor when at full power was probably already higher than an explosion.

That was top-tier defense that even a planetary explosion couldn't destroy. Even if all of Sparkle's bombs detonated, they certainly wouldn't harm Firefly, and it was unlikely to kill Star. It was more probable that innocent tourists in Penacony would be implicated. However, the Masked Fools also had no reason to fight the Astral Express, did they? Although he would quite like to see that scene...
