Talon Prime.

Residence of the Lord of Tyran.

As the master of all Talon and owner of the Real Universe's strongest naval force, a main fleet composed of nearly fifty thousand warships,

Qin Mo did not have a private residence in the strict sense.

It was not because he was particularly frugal, nor because he deliberately sought to recreate the celebrated tales of impoverished rulers from Terra's ancient history. Rather, even as the man at Talon's pinnacle, his material desires could no longer keep pace with the development of material conditions.

Qin Mo's residence was integrated into the top floor of the largest building in the administrative district.

On the immense Talon Prime, transformed into an ideal city, the building itself was enough to be called a world. If an employee from some department did not wish to leave and had no task requiring them to do so, they could live in that little world for their entire life.

Mimic, who had come to Talon Prime from the Orphus Sector, was inside this building, which possessed the capacity and efficiency to govern all of Talon. He organized matters concerning the C'tan, then filed them away as records.

This was not a mission, but a request from The Chronicler.

As a C'tan fond of recording things, what The Chronicler feared most was not whatever threat it might face, but the possibility that the things it recorded might vanish.

In the history of any race or civilization, the disappearance of records was not uncommon.

The Chronicler even believed that keeping the things it recorded solely within itself was not secure enough.

It had established archives across the galaxy, archives so vast and concealed that they could be called wonders.

They were enough to enthrall any civilization that had entered the space age
