According to reliable unofficial historical records, a long, long time ago, Akivili and Aha had a romantic relationship.
Once, while they were playing on the Astral Express, they accidentally shattered half of the train. The enraged Conductor then kicked the two most troublesome Nameless off the train.
However, their feelings did not disappear; instead, they intensified even more rapidly. But bound by their Paths, they were always unable to take their relationship further.
Finally, one day, the Aeon of The Propagation was born, giving them hope.
So, the two Aeons secretly contacted Tayzzyronth and conducted a mysterious transaction.
Subsequently, the three Aeons held a grand banquet in the depths of the universe, engaging in an exchange between their Paths.
During the event, the path of gluttony arrived to freeload, and Memory also prepared to record this historic moment.
Affected by the intertwining of the three Paths, the order in the depths of the universe gradually became chaotic.
As a good friend of Taiyi of Order, Klippah of The Preservation could no longer stand it and immediately brought down three hammers.
The Propagation consequently fell, Trailblaze suffered severe injuries and died, and Order, who was trying to persuade The Preservation to stop, was unfortunately swallowed by Harmony.
Seeing his good friend Taiyi perish, the disheartened Klippah saw through the mortal world and built the Tianhui Star Wall at the edge of the universe to commemorate his dear friend.
Gluttony, focused on eating, was accidentally isolated outside the wall by Klippah.
Fortunately, after the intertwining of the three Paths and a long period of gestation, Aha of Elation gave birth to a daughter.
To commemorate the half of the Astral Express that was unfortunately broken off, Aha named her A-xing.
However, because her lover Akivili had left, Aha was disheartened and entrusted the infant A-xing to the Stellaron Hunter to raise, instructing them to return A-xing to the Astral Express on a chosen day.
The other Aeons, feeling sympathetic, bestowed blessings upon A-xing's Trailblaze journey. The attention from various Aeons was, in fact, their contribution.
In a university dorm, Shi Hui had just finished testing a Simulated Universe when he found this note. He then read the entire note, which had inexplicably appeared on his desk, with a frown, and exclaimed.
"Holy crap, where did this (fictional) historian come from? This unofficial history is too wild!"
Faced with such astonishing news, Shi Hui was truly puzzled and could only re-read it repeatedly.
Suddenly, a faint light flashed, and Shi Hui saw the note in front of him twist 180 degrees, after which its two ends spontaneously stuck together, forming a mobius strip.
"What kind of situation is th—" Before his confusion could be resolved, the mobius strip glowed with a dazzling light, blinding Shi Hui and blurring his consciousness.
...
The Astral Express roared through the boundless starry sky, like a stone falling into water, creating ripples.
Whale pods chasing meteors fell from the zenith, and Tianhui Star Wall structures spanned light-years, stretching endlessly.
"Rumble—"
As a long train whistle sounded in his ears, Shi Hui leaned on the starry Tianhui Star Wall beside him, staggering to his feet.
What's it like to open your eyes and find a train crashing towards you?
"Am I going to transmigrate again? Wait... why did I say 'again'?" Shi Hui vigorously shook his still-unclear head, muttering.
In the instant between life and death, Shi Hui's brain worked rapidly.
"Wait, a train traveling in space, a never-ending star wall... This couldn't be the Astral Express and the Tianhui Star Wall, could it?"
"If I remember correctly, the Tianhui Star Wall built by the Amber Lord couldn't block the Astral Express's Trailblaze, could it?"
Soon, Shi Hui's confusion was resolved.
Seemingly noticing someone standing on the Tianhui Star Wall, the Astral Express suddenly changed course, avoiding Shi Hui, and slammed into the other side of the Tianhui Star Wall.
The moment the Astral Express crashed into the Tianhui Star Wall, countless ice-blue sparks suddenly exploded in the starry sky.
The starry high wall was gouged open by the train, and countless fragments of the wall shot out in all directions, falling into the sea of stars until they were absorbed by a spiral-shaped quantum nebula.
After a long time, when the aftershocks subsided, the spiral-shaped nebula began to collapse until it vanished into a series of tiny paper rings.
Shi Hui stared blankly at the mobius strip in his hand: "Holy crap, is this little paper ring so overpowered?"
At the same time, the Astral Express also stopped at the Tianhui Star Wall nearby.
As the train doors slowly opened, an old man with white hair, a face marked by time, a long white beard, wearing a black top hat, and a black long cloak, emerged, holding a boy who was still very young.
The old man took off his black top hat and bowed deeply to Shi Hui with an apologetic expression.
"I am very sorry for causing you trouble. I am Falken Amundsen, the Navigator of the Astral Express. The accident just now was caused by him when the Conductor and I were not paying attention."
"It's good that you are alright. As an apology, the train will give you some compensation for emotional distress."
"Falken Amundsen, the Navigator of the train..." Shi Hui murmured the old man's name.
After searching his mind for a moment, Shi Hui recalled the old man's life story.
After Akivili's fall and Nanook's birth, a substance called the Cancer of All Worlds appeared in the universe, severing the Astral Express previously Trailblazed by the Astral Express.
In the early days of the Cancer of All Worlds, Amundsen continuously sought out the Nameless who had departed after Akivili's fall, and together with countless heroes, he cleared the blocked Astral Express.
Like the morning star in the dark night, brilliant and dazzling.
Clearing his thoughts, Shi Hui looked at the boy next to Amundsen: "Compared to compensation, I'm more curious as to why you drove the Astral Express into this Tianhui Star Wall?"
"After Trailblaze fell, is the Astral Express planning to go to war with The Preservation?" Shi Hui teased.
Under Amundsen's stern gaze, the boy who had made a mistake repeatedly waved his hands, feeling very guilty.
"No, no. I just remembered a video I saw in the train's archives a few days ago, about a Nameless predecessor using the Astral Express to crash through the Tianhui Star Wall."
"I thought, the Tianhui Star Wall and this Tianhui Star Wall were both built by Klippah. If the train could crash through the Tianhui Star Wall, could it also crash through this Tianhui Star Wall?"
Shi Hui nodded in agreement, seemingly quite appreciative of the boy's brilliant idea.
"The answer is already obvious," Shi Hui said, pointing to the Tianhui Star Wall that had been gouged open by the train.
"Next time, you can also try if the Astral Express can crash through the supermassive black hole base plate built by Klippah."
Upon hearing this, the boy's eyes lit up, clearly having recovered from Amundsen's scolding.
He extended his somewhat childish hand to Shi Hui and said excitedly.
"My name is Glanholm, what's yours?"
"Shi Hui."
