"Ok?"

Black Tower's gaze held a hint of inquiry, as if he were scrutinizing a rather illogical set of data.

"Are you really just going to repay a favor?" Black Tower asked.

Jiang Jiu put his phone away, turned his head to look at her, and slightly curled the corners of his lips, but did not answer immediately.

Black Tower didn't really need Jiang Jiu's answer.

She felt that it wasn't.

If Jiang Jiu really just wanted to help the Star God of Joy get rid of his gluttony, why did he have to wade into the muddy waters of the Two Phases Paradise?

and......

According to the memories of the little black tower doll, not much time has passed since the things that were played on the sky ended.

Now, he no longer needs to review the costs behind each action or reset the timeline repeatedly. He can relax on the sofa and play games all afternoon, or be dragged along by her to study the simulated universe.

He was only nineteen years old.

Most people at nineteen are probably still worrying about very small things.

His nineteenth year was more extraordinary than most people's. He walked through countless terminal lines, killed star gods, ascended to godhood, and returned from the end of nothingness to relight the universe frozen by memories.

No one asked him to keep going, but he said he wanted to come to the Second Phase Paradise to repay Aha's favor.

Looking into his amber eyes, Black Tower felt he had probably guessed the truth.

It's true that I'm repaying a favor.

It's probably true that they want to play.

These two things never conflicted in his life.

He was perfectly capable of rescuing Aha and going to the amusement park at the same time, just as he was perfectly capable of effortlessly handling all the aftermath of Onfaros while simultaneously going on vacation and playing games.

Who says a Star God has to sit in the narrow passage of fate with a stern face all day? Who says a Star God can't go shopping with his girlfriend, can't play games, or can't grumble and complain because he got the wrong gacha pull?

He's only nineteen. He's finally regained his composure, so it's only natural for him to love to play.

"What's with that expression?" Jiang Jiu waved his hand in front of her eyes. "You don't actually suspect that I was switched with Ah Ha, do you?"

“No,” Black Tower withdrew his gaze, a slight smile playing on his lips. “I was just thinking that your status as a Star God is not quite what I expected.”

"What do you think it will be like? High above, indifferent bystanders, the will of fate overpowering the remnants of humanity?" Jiang Jiu paused. "Lai Gushi thought so too today."

"How could that be?"

Black Tower refuted Jiang Jiu's statement.

Of course, Jiang Jiu was just joking. After all, that was the Black Tower. What was there about him that the Black Tower didn't know?

Black Tower was silent for a moment, then suddenly reached out and pinched his earlobe: "So how do you plan to get to the Two-Phase Paradise? Will you descend directly as a Star God of Existence, making the entire Hattopia kneel in welcome of your arrival?"

Of course not.

Jiang Jiu smiled and took something out of his pocket: a train ticket.

Jiang Jiu thought about it carefully and felt that he had gotten the information from some line and some place. He also seemed to have spent a few days on the Starry Sky Train before, although he didn't stay for very long.

This is a rare reason to go; it would be a waste not to.

Black Tower thought for a moment and asked, "Isn't the timeline a bit off now? Logically, the Star Train should be going to Onfaros, but now that the Onfaros instance is gone, will they really go to the Two-Phase Paradise?"

Jiang Jiu hummed in agreement.

"Of course it will. As for the reasons... let the slaves of fate figure them out."

Black Tower offered a second's worth of condolence for those who wanted to cause trouble at Two-Phase Paradise.

This place is likely to become the most chaotic place ever.

Is it really true that it's called Pleasure?

"Okay, go ahead." She casually placed the little black tower doll on Jiang Jiu's shoulder, then withdrew her hand, her tone as nonchalant as ever, "Don't go too wild, remember to come back."

"Of course." After Jiang Jiu finished speaking, he followed Hei Ta's movements and placed the little Hei Ta doll on his shoulder. Then he suddenly leaned in and placed a very light kiss on the corner of Hei Ta's mouth.

"I'm leaving now. I'll bring you souvenirs from the Two-Phase Paradise when I get back. Hmm... if it's funny to see Aha being bitten by a mad dog, I might laugh at him and record it for you."

"Then I'll look forward to it, have fun!"

Black Tower stood still, watching the person in front of him disappear from the spot.

If she hadn't witnessed him standing at the intersection of nothingness and memory, turning the clock of the end, she probably wouldn't have been able to connect the guy in front of her, who was about to sneak onto the train to go to the amusement park, with that existential star god.

She shook her head gently, but couldn't suppress the smile on her lips.

Nineteen years old.

She muttered to herself, then turned and walked toward the laboratory.

There's still a ton of data to run in the simulated universe, so I don't have time to waste on his nonsense. Anyway, he'll be back.

Chapter 6 Welcome aboard!

"Jiang Jiu, you must read these commitments aloud yourself before I can agree to your request!"

"Is it mandatory to read it?"

"I definitely need it!"

In the party carriage, Jiang Jiu sat on the sofa, looking at the promise letter that the train conductor solemnly produced.

Jiang Jiu hesitated for a moment.

God, under the eaves of the carriage, had no choice but to bow his head.

"Okay... No blowing up any carriage on the train, especially the collection compartment. No bringing other Star Gods onto the train and pretending they are just ordinary nameless guests. No taking the train brooms and fencing with the passengers, or damaging the cleaning tools... Don't treat me like Aha or Akivili. I'm not some terrible nameless guest."

Pam retorted seriously, "But Jiang Jiu is the kind of person who would start a divine war just because he's unhappy. Pam has zero faith in such a person!"

"How could that be? How could I have done something so unreasonable?" Jiang Jiu tried to refute.

"Pam remembers it all clearly, Pam! It was you, Pam, who instigated the divine war and besieged the Hunting God! It was you, Pam, who summoned the four Star Gods of Pleasure, Nothingness, Hunting God, and Destruction to gang up on the Star God of Wisdom! It was you, Pam, who almost overturned the Fate Rift!"

The train conductor's tone was full of serious accusation.

"Now you say you're different from Aha and Akvili, how can Pam believe you, Pam!"

Jiang Jiu opened his mouth, actually wanting to say a few words in his defense.

But the words caught in his throat. It seemed that he really had done all of these things...?

“Pam, I think you’ve misunderstood me.” Jiang Jiu tried to salvage his image in the train conductor’s eyes, even though his initial image score was probably already negative.

"There's no misunderstanding! Everything shown on the screen is the truth!"

Pam solemnly made Jiang Jiu read the pledge again, fearing that omitting any part would lead to disaster!

Jiang Jiu sighed.

It's all Aha's fault.

"Okay, okay... No pouring electronic mustard into the rice cooker and ruining the train's food, no cutting or altering Pam's uniform and dress, huh? Dress? Does Pam still have dresses? Can she wear one for me?"

Pam said sternly, "Jiang Jiu, please continue reading the pledge, Pam!"

"it is good......."

"No stealing telephones, microwave ovens, supersonic slippers, invisibility cloaks, or anti-gravity carpets; no releasing the organ dragonfly from the museum's collection, or any other dangerous exhibits; no graffiti on train statues or museum walls; no fishing in space outside portholes; no fishing that could blow up satellites or damage spaceships; no arbitrarily sharing debts and shifting blame to other crew members..."

In the end, Jiang Jiunian wanted to smash the mask in his hand.

"What kind of nonsense is this?"

Pam encouraged, "Keep it up, Jiang Jiu! You're almost done reciting Pam!"

Jiang Jiu: "You are not allowed to distort the train's trajectory without authorization, or send the train to strange places. In particular, you must not turn the train into a giant ice cream making machine."

Jiang paused for a moment.

"Great idea."

Pam immediately retorted: "That's a really, really, really bad idea, Pam!!! Passenger Jiang Jiu is not allowed to have such dangerous thoughts, Pam!"

Just as Jiang Jiu was about to offer a rebuttal, a soft sound came from behind him.

The carriage door opened.

Himeko came out with a cup of coffee, her gaze falling on Jiang Jiu, and she froze for a second.

In that instant, her expression underwent an incredibly rich series of changes, from doubt to shock, and finally to a relieved "I knew it," before settling on a gentle smile.

As expected of a navigator!!!

Their ability to accept new information is truly amazing!!!

"Lord Jiang Jiu?" Himeko's tone was as if she were confirming a fact she could hardly believe. "What are you doing here?"

"Tap! Tap!" Pam immediately complained, "Not only are passengers from Jiangjiu here, but they're also trying to turn the train into a giant ice cream machine!"

“I didn’t try.” Jiang Jiu innocently held up the ridiculously long letter of commitment. “I just said it was a great idea, but we haven’t started implementing it yet.”

"I can't even think about it!"

Himeko laughed out loud.

She brought over the coffee, sat down opposite Jiang Jiu, and lingered on him for a while.

Contrary to Jiang Jiu's expectations, Himeko's gaze was gentle, yet filled with scrutinizing concern.

...Is it already commonplace for the Star God to board the train?

"I thought you'd be very busy after becoming a Star God." Himeko was speaking politely one second, but the next she was asking gently in the tone of an elder.

"No, Onfaros has finished dealing with it and is currently free."

"So you ended up on the train?"

"Hmm, is that not allowed?"

Before Himeko could say anything, footsteps came from the end of the corridor, and Hoshi, March 7, and Dan Heng appeared at the door of the carriage almost at the same time.

Xing still had a piece of bread in her mouth; although it was already noon, it was her breakfast.
