"Huh? What did I do?"

Hearing the system's broadcast,

Ye Qiyan felt somewhat puzzled.

He could understand everything else,

But that last part.

In the Platinum Forest, hadn't he just killed a bunch of goblins, and taken care of one, oh wait, one and a half gods?

How did he become the master of that world?

He threw the question to the system.

The train system responded to him.

"I see. So that means the Goblin God must have known the Elven God could be revived, which is why he sent an army to that world. It just so happened that I ran into them?"

Ye Qiyan raised an eyebrow.

If that were the case, the Goblin God would likely continue sending troops into Platinum Forest after he left, invading that world.

"System, change the time flow of No-Light Platinum Forest to synchronize with the Wasteland. I don't plan to manage that world, but at least I can mess with that Goblin."

[Please adjust the time.]

The Light Screen's shape changed into that of a clock face.

Two sets of hands existed within the clock face, one solid and one illusory.

The former represented the Wasteland, the latter, the Platinum Forest.

Ye Qiyan reached out, adjusting the hands to synchronize with the Wasteland.

Click—

The moment they overlapped, the solid and illusory natures of the clock face flipped, then quickly vanished.

"Done. Let me check the other rewards."

[Praying Moon]

This was a ring.

A ring engraved with a platinum moon.

Ye Qiyan held it in his palm and immediately appraised it.

[Praying Moon (Level 9)]

[Restricted to lifeforms for wear]

[After equipping, can summon the Platinum Moon to fight for you.]

"Hmm..."

Such a simple ability.

It didn't even receive an extra annotation from the system.

As a level 9 item, it seemed far too ordinary.

"Let me try it out first."

He wore the ring on his left index finger.

Without even consuming Spirit, a lone small platinum-white moon appeared on the roof of his carriage.

Eve, on the roof, curiously approached and poked it.

Ye Qiyan tried using its ability.

By consuming just a bit of Spirit, liquidized platinum spikes would fall from that small Platinum Moon, adjustable in size at will.

To be honest... this thing could be used as a streetlamp?

"Ha? System, are you sure you didn't screw up? This thing is level 9?"

[The system has not made an error. The item's level is 9.]

"Damn..."

Ye Qiyan shook his head speechlessly, weighing it in his hand a few times.

Its ability was mediocre, but its appearance was quite nice.

Sell it?

Or...

He thought for a moment, clenched the ring in his palm, and looked at Lisette, who was wearing an apron and cleaning alongside WALL-E.

"Let me Sublimate it first."

Without hesitation, he directly Sublimated it.

[Stamina: 350→250] [Spirit: 340→240]

The platinum-white ring shattered and reformed in his hand.

[Utmost Exertion]

A mere two hundred points of stats, yet it triggered Utmost Exertion.

This thing's potential was... a bit minimal.

[Praying Moon (Level 9) → Time Moon]

[Summon the Platinum Moon. After equipping, time-related abilities are enhanced.]

"Huh?"

One character changed in the name, and the ability didn't gain much more.

But sometimes, the fewer the words, the more powerful the represented force.

Time-related.

Was it because he had been thinking about giving it to Lisette during the Sublimation, so when Utmost Exertion occurred, it became like this?

The ring's appearance didn't change much.

It was still just as beautiful, only now a deep blue crescent moon pattern was added.

"Lisette."

He called his maid's name.

Lisette put down her broom, and in two or three quick steps, walked over with a smile.

"Master~ You called for me?"

"Give me your hand."

Lisette obediently extended her fair hands.

"This is for you."

"Huh?"

When Ye Qiyan placed the ring named Time Moon into Lisette's hands,

Looking at this ring, the core within Lisette's body suddenly became restless.

The Chrono-Mechanical Armament and Celestial Domain Fantasy, which she had always kept hidden, flickered continuously, as if they were displaying the extreme turmoil within her heart at this moment.

"Really... you're giving this to me?"

"Don't like this one either? Then forget it, I'll find something else to strengthen you..."

"No! Mas-ter, I love it!"

Lisette clutched the ring like a precious treasure, a gentle smile on her beautiful face blooming even brighter.

She slowly bent down and sat beside Ye Qiyan's leg.

"Master, thank you~"

Ye Qiyan patted her head. After a long moment, he spoke:

"So, what's for lunch?"

"Whatever, Master, likes— hamburger~ Hehe."

Lisette hid the ring in her palm, reluctantly leaving Ye Qiyan's touch, stood up, and her gaze inconspicuously glanced toward Red Tears, who sat not far away, as exquisite and quiet as a doll.

Her mood became even better.

"Hmm... looking at it this way, slaying a god and fighting a war really pay off the most. Ah, I wonder when those things will finally sell. This time, it's taking pretty long."

Ye Qiyan yawned.

He contacted the black market's Customer Service lady.

She was still looking for a buyer who could take all of Ye Qiyan's spoils in one go.

Don't think three or four thousand Train Coins is a small amount.

In reality, most Train Conductors in the Wasteland probably couldn't even save up a thousand Train Coins after several months of travel.

After all, not everyone could run into gods and take them out, or participate in the destruction of various cities—ah wait, the salvation of wars.

But no matter what.

The past had never made him afraid to move forward.

Just in case. Just in case.

If he ever lost in a Station World, he would keep moving forward until he grew strong enough to conquer that station.

But that was just a "just in case."

Because...

"Losing is boring, so I'll just keep on winning."

"Ha~ I'm sleepy..."

Ye Qiyan yawned and threw himself onto the [Luxury Dream Bed].

Staring at the ceiling he knew all too well, he slowly closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

He wouldn't dream, even on this bed.

Lisette had finished making lunch and came over, immediately slowing her pace when she saw him lying on the bed.

She set down the tray.

Covered Ye Qiyan with a blanket, took one more look at Red Tears, who was silently staring at her master, bit her lip, and simply sat on the floor by the head of the bed, listening to her master's heartbeat, listening to his breathing...

Wisps of deep blue light diffused from Ye Qiyan's body.

Mingming in the Nether Moon Garden seemed to sense something and floated slowly beside his face.

The carriage was filled with a deep blue glow that Ye Qiyan himself was unaware of.

Was this a small miracle?

No...

It was just.

A bit of Spirit diffused from him.
