"But didn't you still rush to get certified back in March 7th?"

Xing's simple words were tantamount to a betrayal of March 7th.

"Cough...

How can these be the same...?

Suddenly realizing that she hadn't been aware of this issue before, March 7th coughed lightly, covering her mouth with her little fist.

"Gwen just saved us, and he's practically one of the people on the train. He's someone Uncle Yang absolutely trusts, so it's normal for me to believe he wouldn't harm Uncle Yang, right?"

"Um..."

Upon hearing this, Xing's eyes immediately lit up—

"March 7th is right. Because of trust, we don't see any danger in it."

"Oh...

Yes, I have received your trust.

Seeing Xingna's relaxed expression, as if she had found the answer, Gwen smiled and nodded, placing one hand on his chest and speaking softly.

After his personal star core crisis, several more stars have appeared in the starry sky of the Stigmata Space, which has gradually evolved into the landscape of his mind, including the two stars of March 7th and Star.

"Huh..."

Don't be so mushy..."

Seeing this, March 7th pursed his lips, put his hands on his hips, and said—

"Isn't this just common sense..."

"This isn't cheesy..."

Seeing her expression that said, "I'm not happy if you keep saying that," Gwen couldn't help but smile and raised his right hand.

Under the watchful eyes of March 7th and Xing, a crystalline ice crystal appeared, quickly transforming into a familiar shape—

"Huh!"

"Isn't this my Six-Phased Ice?"

On March 7th, she couldn't help but extend her slender, pale fingers to gently touch it, confirming that it was almost identical to her own Six-Phased Ice, the only difference being—

"And it seems to be a little colder than my Six-Phased Ice..."

Rubbing his slightly cold fingers, March 7th looked at Gwen with a face full of curiosity—

How did you do that?

"I am able to use your Six-Phased Ice because of my special ability, which allows me to borrow the power of those who have entrusted their trust to me to a certain extent."

As for the fact that my Six-Phased Ice -Six-Phased Ice is colder than yours, it's because my understanding of ice is superior to yours.

Seeing the astonished look on March 7th's face, Gwen smiled and explained, then placed the crystal-clear Six-Phased Ice from his palm into March 7th's palm.

"I know you're strong, but isn't saying this still a bit too harsh..."

March 7th held the Six-Phased Ice condensed by Gwen, her little face looking miserable, but then her eyes lit up—

"But in that case, wouldn't you be able to become my master, Gwen?"

I learned from you how to make my Six-Phased Ice even stronger, so I won't just be a support character when we Trailblaze in the future.

"If you want to learn, of course I'm willing to teach you, but I'll pass on the master role, since March 7th is just so adorable."

When Gwen saw that March 7th had figured out the key point so quickly, he smiled.

"Hehe, then I won't be polite. I'll definitely let you know as soon as there's anything good in the future."

March 7th didn't stand on ceremony and readily agreed with a smile.

Although the focus of the Trailblaze journey is on Trailblaze, and strength is not the main point, if possible, March 7th would like to do more than just be a mood-maker at crucial moments.

"If that's the case, can I learn how to use the power of the Star Core from you, brother?"

Xing's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

"Moreover, we all have a stellar core in our bodies, which is even more convenient than in March 7th."

"What do you mean it's more convenient than mine...?"

March 7th glared at Star, but then looked at Gwen as well—

"But speaking of which, you two both have star cores in your bodies. Gwen, are you really able to help Star control the star cores in your bodies?"

Although it doesn't seem abnormal most of the time, the star core inside its body is still a bit worrying when I think about it.

"This is perhaps not as simple as you think."

When the topic turned to the Star Core, Gwen was no longer as confident as he had been when facing March 7th.

"The friend who helped me suppress the star core gave me a report after he went back, saying that the star core I absorbed had been modified by the mastermind behind all this and was very different from the normal star core."

During the absorption process, I also used my own power to reconstruct this star core.

In other words, although they are both stellar cores, the one inside the star's body and the one on my body are two different things.

"It really didn't work..."

Upon hearing Gwen's explanation, March 7th felt a pang of disappointment.

Although Xing's words drew a glare from her, March 7th still hoped that Xing could control the star core in her body if possible, so as not to go berserk and threaten her life one day.

"It's not entirely impossible."

Seeing March 7th's disappointed expression and Star's slightly dim eyes, Gwen pondered for a moment and left some room for maneuver.

"Huh?"

"Do you have any other ideas?"

March 7th was filled with joy.

"Yes, I have some ideas."

Gwen nodded and pondered for a moment.

"Welt may have told you that my situation is rather special, and I possess a great many different powers."

Perhaps, through that special connection, she could borrow my power and try to slightly manipulate the power of the star core.

"Um?

What's the connection?

March 7th was momentarily stunned.

"That connection of trust!"

Xing said with great certainty.

"Clever."

Gwen nodded with satisfaction. This child has been smart since he was a child.

"Huh?"

Can we borrow your strength in return?

But in the movies I watched, it was all one-way borrowing; to borrow it back, you had to get a special prop in your own theatrical version.

March 7th exclaimed in surprise.

"You said it's just a movie, but this is reality. Do I look like the kind of mythical creature that only takes in and never gives out?"

Gwen laughed.

"That's true..."

Hey-hey..."

March 7th's face flushed slightly. She quickly looked at Xing and patted her shoulder.

"In this way, Xingni will soon no longer have to worry about the star core in her body."

"Well, it's alright. People always say that the Star Core is dangerous, but before Everwinter Peak, I didn't really feel it."

Xing scratched her short hair, her smile tinged with shyness.

"I want to control the power in the star core because if I could have done it before, we wouldn't have been able to just watch helplessly as that guy got closer and closer to hurt Gwen and everyone else couldn't do anything about it."

"Okay, let's work hard together from now on!"

"I really agree," said March 7th with a sweet smile.

"Good!"

Xing nodded vigorously.

"But let's relax for now!"

How could such a relatively smooth Trailblaze trip not leave behind some memorable Remembrance?

On March 7th, he changed tactics and waved his camera.

After spending most of the day with the two of them in Belobog, they were both tired after dinner.

After a tense and exciting battle during the day, followed by half a day of carefree play, March 7th said he would definitely fall asleep the moment his head hit the pillow.

Gwen glanced at Cocolia and, seeing that she was still busy planning for the future, didn't disturb her. He left their celebration for another day and returned to the Herta Space Station.

However, as soon as he landed, Gwen felt a very familiar gaze upon him.

Following his senses, Gwen met a pair of intrigued purple eyes.

"You're back?"

When he met Gwen's gaze, the Herta a playful smile, his voice softer than usual.

"Why does this old woman act so self-righteously!"

Gwen wanted to rebuke the Herta harshly, but in the end, he suppressed this dangerous thought and smiled and nodded.

"Hmm, you were waiting for me?"

Is there some new project in the Simulated Universe that you're eager to try?

Next time, just have Herta come and wait; there's no need for me to wait here myself.

Gwen wasn't surprised that the Herta was looking for him.

Even though the Simulated Universe often crashed, causing the 83rd member of the prestigious Genius Club to take on part-time jobs as a programmer, Herta's interest in it remained undiminished. On the contrary, he became more enthusiastic and even spent a period of time in this Space Station that he had long since lost interest in.

"Um..."

Seeing Gwen's ease and skill, the Herta was momentarily at a loss as to whether to admire Gwen or question what Gwen truly considered himself—a heartless, bloodless scientist who only knew how to exploit human resources?

However, although she was somewhat annoyed, Herta's pretty face showed no sign of it. She gracefully extended her small, white hand—

"Don't you have anything you want to be honest with me about?"

"?"

Seeing the Herta's familiar movement, Gwen pondered for a moment—

Is today a special day?

Why are they asking him for things one after another?

However, although Gwen's intuition told him that the Herta wanted the same thing as Star, Invitation Letter.

But just to be on the safe side, Gwen asked again, as if to confirm—

"Um...

You mean...

"Invitation Letter".

Herta succinctly stated.

"They're really perceptive; they noticed it so quickly."

Gwen sighed.
