"The Overworld, it's been a long time since I've been here."
Big Seele looked at the bright and beautiful Overworld, then at the sky. These were sights that couldn't be seen below.
"Last time we came, we didn't even get to properly look around before we were captured. We originally wanted to explore the next day."
March 7th also said with some indignation.
"Let's solve the matter first. Afterwards, we can wander around freely."
Dan Heng's demeanor was exactly like Kevin's in Takatsuki's impression: "Our appearances are different from before, so we shouldn't be recognized. But Bronya's appearance hasn't changed, so I'm afraid someone with ill intentions might investigate."
"Hmm, this girl thinks so too, March 7th, you... what are you doing!"
March 7th also nodded, then looked at March 7th, only to see her standing in front of an ordinary trash can, staring at it, lost in thought.
Perhaps drawn by the unknown hidden within the trash can, she inexplicably reached out and lifted the lid, peering inside. Just as she was about to reach in and touch the interior of the trash can, March 7th pulled her away.
"Fu Hua rummaging through a trash can... I can't even imagine that scene."
At this moment, March 7th was using Fu Hua's appearance. Even if Fu Hua didn't mind others borrowing her appearance, Takatsuki couldn't imagine how Fu Hua would view him if he did such a thing.
Fortunately, March 7th pulled March 7th away, preventing further embarrassment.
"Dan Heng? What are you looking at?"
Holding March 7th to prevent her from acting recklessly, March 7th saw Dan Heng looking at a wall. In front of him was also a trash can, which made her a bit speechless.
"You wouldn't also..."
Dan Heng didn't speak, he just pointed to the paper posted on the wall in front of him.
"What is this?"
"A wanted poster, I guess..."
"Who drew this?"
"It should be the three of you."
Takatsuki and the two Seele's also gathered around, looking at the wanted poster pasted on the wall, which looked like a kindergarten scribble, feeling a bit speechless.
"Hahahaha, this drawing is too funny."
March 7th pointed at the drawing and said with a laugh, "Even if the people involved stood right under the wanted poster, no one would recognize them."
March 7th smiled awkwardly. After seeing no one else around, she quickly stepped forward and tore down a few wanted posters.
"March 7th, why are you tearing these?"
March 7th asked with a hint of disdain, looking at March 7th's actions.
"If this thing circulates in Belobog, it would be too embarrassing."
She rolled up the wanted posters: "I'll ask later who drew this."
"With this drawing skill... it should be Gepard."
Bronya rubbed her eyebrows with a headache: "Commander Gepard is good at everything, except for drawing. The main thing is that he thinks he draws very well."
"Haha, I didn't expect that cold block of ice to have this side to him."
The wanted poster incident was just a small interlude. Guided by some kind passersby, everyone finally found Serval's Mechanical House and knocked on the door.
"Who is it? We're closed today, come back tomorrow."
Serval's voice came from inside.
"Serval, it's me, Bronya."
"Bronya? Why are you here?"
With Serval's voice, a woman opened the door to the Mechanical House.
"It really is you, Bronya. Come in quickly. And these people are?"
Although she saw unfamiliar faces, Serval still let them in.
"Serval, do you remember us? We helped you fix things before."
March 7th waved her hand.
"Helped me fix things? I don't think I've met you before."
Serval looked puzzled. March 7th rubbed her forehead: "Our appearances are different from before, March 7th."
"Oh, right, wait a moment."
March 7th quickly broke her disguise and reverted to her original appearance.
"Ah, it's you. Are the others also?"
Serval looked at March 7th in surprise. March 7th, who was beside her, also removed her disguise.
"Aren't you Cocolia's wanted criminals? How did you end up with Bronya?"
"What exactly happened? You actually made this rigid Bronya openly defy Cocolia's orders?"
Bronya coughed, seemingly indicating that she was still there.
"I'm best at storytelling! I'll do it!"
March 7th immediately raised her hand. Dan Heng said helplessly, "Don't exaggerate too much."
After March 7th's vivid description, Serval looked at Bronya.
"Although it's a bit exaggerated, it's true what she said."
Bronya said with some helplessness.
"Sigh... Stellaron, was this thing really related to the cold wave? When I was still a City builders, the Stellaron was my research topic. Then I calculated that the Stellaron was related to the Fragmentum. To study the Fragmentum, I applied for an on-site inspection of the Stellaron, and then, as you know, I was expelled from the City builders."
Serval said with some helplessness: "Shortly after submitting the preliminary research report and application, my punishment came down. It's clear someone didn't want me to continue."
"Indeed, Serval, you and Mother were once good friends. Has she changed much from before?"
"Cocolia..." Serval shook her head: "Ever since she became the Supreme Guardian, she's been like a different person. The beliefs she once held, and that enthusiasm she had... it's as if some force extracted them from her body."
Serval's tone was full of sadness: "She personally issued the order to expel me, refusing to even see me... I don't really understand her later actions, but I long ago gave up trying to figure her out with normal logic."
"Bronya, I hope you don't mind, but sometimes, I even wonder if she's another person... Is there a generational consciousness passed down in your Supreme Guardian lineage? Perhaps the true Cocolia disappeared after becoming the Supreme Guardian..."
"It's the will of generation after generation of Supreme Guardians... Bronya, why are you crying!"
Serval was startled to see Bronya in tears.
"Serval, are you... sure... Mother... has she really disappeared..."
Bronya's voice choked. Although she had mentally prepared herself, hearing her mother's close friend say such words made it impossible for her to deceive herself any longer.
"I... I'm just guessing. After all, Cocolia really did become a different person."
Serval was a bit anxious. She didn't understand why the usually strong Bronya suddenly burst into tears, but soon, Bronya wiped away her tears.
"Serval, the Supreme Guardian does not have a so-called generational consciousness. What changed the Supreme Guardian was precisely the Stellaron. I originally intended to personally verify this with Mother, but now it seems Mother may have truly died long ago. What is now driving that body is the will of the Stellaron!"
