Matmu's Self clone was overjoyed.
Now, he was the real Matmu.
How long had he been waiting for this day?
Ever since the day Matmu entered the Wasteland and discovered his clone talent.
As the very first clone to be differentiated, yet always hidden deep in his heart as the ultimate trump card—[Self]—he had been eagerly anticipating this day.
Now, he was Matmu.
Inside the locomotive section.
Having discarded the [World] as a carriage, it was flying along.
"Hahahaha, that idiot main body, messing around with becoming a True God, staying in that shabby world for so many years, what a coward."
"When that time comes, I will be the strongest Train Conductor! Hahahahaha!"
Matmu laughed maniacally. As the [Self] clone, he was also the only one who had inherited the talent.
After the main body's death, he too could create new clones.
However, with his own existence as a cautionary tale.
He had no intention of creating the [Self] clone ever again.
"And that Train Conductor, hehe, he should be dead by now, eaten by the monsters that emerged from that door."
"Too bad, he seemed to have a lot of powerful things on him that I can't get now."
"If only I had a chance to visit that Station World again..."
"Huh? What's that sound?"
Clatter, clatter—
The sound of chains.
Matmu turned his head in confusion, only to suddenly see a dark golden chain extending out from the space behind him.
"What the hell is that!? Damn! Don't come any closer!"
He tried to dodge, but was instantly bound by the chain.
"Ah!!"
The chain tightened, and his body couldn't move an inch.
He was violently dragged towards that space.
"No, no!! Damn it! Let me go!"
He struggled with all his might, but it was useless. He could only watch helplessly as his body was pulled through that space.
"Clone, clone! Why? Why can't I even use my talent!?"
"Let me go, let me go!"
"Ah!!!"
Accompanied by his final scream within the locomotive section.
Matmu left the Wasteland.
This train, now without a Train Conductor, would one day enter a station and remain there, forever still.
[Nefeti's Garden]
Clatter, clatter—
Matmu opened his eyes.
What met his gaze was a young man standing on a dragon's head, a face full of smiles, locking eyes with him.
He recognized this young man.
"Yo, long time no see."
"You... me?!!! Why? Why are you still alive!?"
Ye Qiyan rubbed his chin, carefully pondering the question.
"Because I didn't die, so I'm still alive. How's that for an answer?"
"No, that's impossible! How could the things from that door not kill you!?"
Matmu screamed in disbelief, frantically looking around until his eyes fell upon the now-closed, dilapidated wooden door.
"It can't be, it can't be! I clearly already—"
"Alright, I have a few questions for you. After that, it'll be time for you to join your main body on the final journey."
"You... I! Why should I answ—"
"First question."
Ye Qiyan cut off Matmu's words.
"Where did you, or rather your main body, obtain this door from."
[Defiance × Bewitchment]
The demon's whisper forced Matmu's mouth open against his will.
"It... it was in a... level 11 Station World. That was the first level 11 world the main body entered.
It was also there that he suffered his greatest defeat, became disillusioned, and didn't dare to enter high-level stations anymore."
"A level 12 item appearing in a level 11 Station World? Besides, how did he manage to stop entering level 11 worlds?"
"How could you not know about this! You're clearly so strong!?"
"Answer the question, don't ask your own."
Matmu felt a wave of agony.
"The Module! It's a Train Module! Once the Train reaches level 40, this module option will definitely appear! You can spend a large amount of Train Coins to choose which level, from 8 to 12, will be your next stop!"
That makes sense. After all, not every high-level Train Conductor has the ability to conquer higher-level Station Worlds.
Just like this Nefeti's Garden.
If someone weaker had come, they probably would have just taken [Nefeti] and fled on their train.
It's likely that many high-level Train Conductors, upon reaching that level and obtaining that module, would only choose the lowest level 8 Station World.
"Next question, when did you enter the Wasteland?"
"F-forty-two years ago..."
Huh?
Ye Qiyan's brows furrowed slightly.
He remembered Shaya saying she entered the Wasteland over twenty years ago and rarely encountered Train Conductors from earlier times.
"Alright, last one. What exactly did you do in this world that allowed him to obtain the Overcomer's ability?"
Matmu's body trembled violently.
His consciousness was perfectly clear, and he understood that answering this question meant his death.
But the demon's whisper made it impossible for him to refuse or lie.
"It was a capsule. That was also something he obtained from that level 11 Station World. After consuming it, his clone talent underwent some changes."
"In this world, by stealing Nefeti's Undying Flame and transferring his own life force into the bodies of all his believers, and then by constantly manipulating some people to rebel against him, providing him with a continuous stream of vitality..."
"...he could barely obtain a portion of the Overcomer's power, thus unlocking the Wasteland Divinity contained within that capsule."
So that's how it is.
No wonder that cat-woman named Aishara suddenly turned traitor.
She was chosen and deliberately cultivated by Matmu to be a rebel.
"Red Tears."
That's all the questions.
Matmu collapsed to his knees.
"No, I beg you, the one who did all that was the main body, not me! I'm just a clone, I—!"
Hum—
A sword fell.
Matmu's consciousness plunged into darkness.
Rumble—
The wind was still howling.
The rain still hadn't stopped.
Red Tears' rain washed over the blood on the ground.
The demon and the maid stood on either side of him, holding umbrellas.
The Overdrive Dragon beneath his feet reverted to its original form.
This station was officially over.
"Things that happen in level 9 stations are indeed much more intense than in level 8."
"But the gains aren't small either."
Ye Qiyan stretched lazily, drawing a circle in the air with the index finger of his right hand.
All the Card Sequences returned to the Void Card Repository.
Standing high up, he looked down at the city that had been completely reduced to ruins and shook his head.
"Next, I just need to wait for WALL-E."
