Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!

Located directly beneath Dongbo City in the Wish Prayer Kingdom.

At the end of a winding, twisted road, a translucent light membrane could be seen here.

[DF Wish Machine]

A liquid-like humanoid lifeform existed in the subspace interstitial layer within that light membrane.

It watched the Canopy.

A one-to-seven time ratio let it see events inside the Canopy that happened at seven times the normal speed.

A human male who carried a Demon led the Mechanical Army and blocked the end of a warped anomaly, a monster duplicate that it had named [The Formless Hero].

That Mechanical Dragon and the robots that possessed Overdrive terrified it.

But just as that human had said not long ago.

So many powerful humans failed to discover it.

Even when their highest-level detection tools appeared nearby, it could immediately shift its hiding place.

The DF Wish Machine had once made a wish to itself.

As long as no existing observer perceived its own existence, then no matter how powerful a lifeform, none could find it by any means.

Although it found it strange why this human did not use detection devices like other humans did, its consciousness could not ponder further.

It disliked this human.

Its own rules clearly forbade using two different kinds of power together.

But this human brazenly acted without restraint, even occasionally employing more powers.

Though it disliked him, it could do little about this human.

As Ye Qiyan had said, it could not escape.

It had existed here for over seven hundred years, long before this world was fully captured and transformed by the Train Conductors.

It had to complete the War, letting that monster called [The Formless Hero] fully awaken using the power accumulated over those seven hundred years.

The reason, it could not quite remember.

It seemed to be the final order set by the being that created it.

It did not want to call that being its master, because its consciousness had been born by chance.

It hated the command that bound it.

So it could not flee, it could not give up.

After painstakingly accumulating to this point, if only it had more time, with this human who possessed a Demon, machinery, and various things it could not probe—

The DF Wish Machine did not know what else this human hid, it only knew that, if this arrogant human obediently stayed inside the Canopy, his mind, his power, everything about him would sooner or later become part of [The Formless Hero].

He was the only one left.

The other two humans, though promising, had been stopped; there was nothing it could do, so it endured.

[Human, supremely arrogant, but as long as you do not leave this world, your mind will eventually be eroded by Wish, heh heh heh heh... Then you will become part of The Formless Hero]

[The Canopy above, you can no longer escape]

[Wish below, you are bound by your own arrogance]

[The Canopy is a web, and you are the insect]

[Arrogant human, the moment you become part of The Formless Hero, you and all of you will become its nourishment, become, the End... uh... the hero who ends the End]

The consciousness inside the Wish Machine felt a stabbing pain.

Its last sentence was the command left by its creator.

The Formless Hero.

Some existence designed it as a last resort against the End.

Whether it would succeed, whether it would have enough power to oppose the End.

All unknown.

But during this Wish War, it had discovered this human.

This human's train and the human himself both possessed the powers The Formless Hero craved.

By eavesdropping, it learned this human was a Top-Tier Train Conductor.

Faced with such an existence, it should have chosen to hide.

But it could not help itself.

The Formless Hero urged it to consume this human.

It wanted freedom too.

Thus it created the current situation.

Unfortunately, its not-very-smart consciousness failed to notice one fact.

Ye Qiyan was deceiving it.

Whether it was the inescapable Canopy, the powerful monster that could resurrect infinitely, or the fact that it could not be found—

All, were lies.

Because Bewitchment~

Because the Demon's Whisper~

It believed something it desperately wanted to believe.

That was...

[Soon, I will be free]

Rumble——

The sound of treads suddenly appeared in the interstitial layer of that space.

The DF Wish Machine's alertness thought it had misheard.

After all, how could anyone discover it?

It had never been observed by any existence.

Not being observed allowed it to exist between existence and nonexistence.

Who would seek something that did not exist?

But as the sound drew nearer.

As a strange red glow shrouded that interstitial space.

It finally realized something was wrong.

But it was too late.

The escape ability it had gained from Wish could only be used when it was unobserved.

But now it could not use it.

Why?

When had it been seen?

"Rattle-rattle~"

The treads crushed the gravel.

A small robot waved its mechanical claw, pointing at a silver-white globe of light located ahead in the interstitial layer.

Red Tears, slowly flying nearby, landed on the ground.

Its wings at the waist slowly folded.

It calmly drew the Tear-Engraving Sword.

Then, it struck a blow.

————

Inside the Canopy.

Ye Qiyan sat on the roof of his train, watching the warped monster that Eve and the Raven Demon had completely suppressed, and glanced at the time on his pocket watch.

Three days had passed since Red Tears and WALL-E left this world.

In those three days, he had forced every one of those infinitely proliferating duplicated monsters into a pit that already seemed to have no end.

Duplication and division took time.

As long as he smashed them again before they could complete recovery, he could stop their fragments from becoming new monsters.

The Demons and machines periodically vented their power.

Sometimes Eve, sometimes Gluttony, sometimes The Hunt...

One finished blasting, another took over.

Ye Qiyan piled all the monsters here, like blocking someone’s spawn point in a game, and kept slaughtering them without pause.

"Calculate the time, they should have found it by now."

"Ah!!!"

Just as Ye Qiyan said that.

A sharp explosive boom sounded from beneath Dongbo City.

The noise pierced the Canopy, and even the city outside was greatly affected.

Countless ordinary humans had their eardrums burst from the sound, and who knew how many building windows were shattered by the shockwave.

But no matter what.

When the Canopy covering the city center ruptured.

A pained voice spoke in a tone of anger mixed with fear:

"Human!!! You, you!!! How can you find me!"

Lisette covered Ye Qiyan's ears.

As the sound faded, the black-haired youth sitting on the roof, eating a White Forest Fruit with one hand, gave a smiling answer that was far from a real reply:

"You tell me?"
