When Yukong saw Takumi, she was momentarily stunned. Was he really the one who saved Tingyun? And also the one who planned to take her away? "Benefactor!" The moment Tingyun saw Takumi, her face lit up with joy as she greeted him warmly. "Done talking?" Takumi smiled as he stepped forward and greeted the others. "Hello, Miss Yukong. I'm Takumi." Hearing his words, Yukong gave a small smile and immediately spoke up: "Mr. Takumi, thank you for saving Tingyun. I truly appreciate it." As she spoke, Yukong bowed respectfully to Takumi. "It was nothing," Takumi replied casually. "Besides, I plan to take Tingyun to my world. Miss Tingyun has quite the talent—I'd like her help with some things." Yukong nodded. "She's already explained that to me. I think it's a good idea. Please take care of her." Letting Tingyun leave might be for the best. The current state of the ark wasn't exactly stable. After all that had happened, staying here was too dangerous for her. After learning about Takumi's power and background, Yukong was reassured. She had no objections. Heading to Takumi's world would be much safer. Plus, she could return anytime. "Alright," Takumi said, turning to Tingyun. "Are you ready?" Seeing this, Tingyun quickly spoke up: "Yes, Benefactor. I've already packed everything I need." She had long since made preparations and was simply waiting for Takumi. "Then let's set off," Takumi said. "March 7, Lumine—shall I send you back to the Astral Express? Or is there somewhere else you want to go?" Since he planned to return, Takumi also intended to send the others off. "Send us to the space station," March 7 replied after thinking for a moment. "We're heading there next!" They weren't going back to the train right away. They planned to tour around with Lumine, starting at the space station, and then head to Jarilo-VI. Hearing this, Takumi nodded and opened a space portal leading to Herta's office. With that done, Takumi turned to Yukong to say goodbye. "Well then, we're off for now, Miss Yukong. If you get the chance, come visit my world." Yukong nodded. "I will. If the opportunity arises, I'll definitely go." Visiting Takumi's world? That sounded interesting. Honestly, she was quite curious. What kind of place was it, especially if Tingyun would be living there? After saying his goodbyes, Takumi turned and entered the portal without looking back. Tingyun and the others also bid farewell to Yukong. The group first arrived at the space station. When Herta saw Takumi arrive, she was a bit confused. Mobius and others were also present. Seeing Takumi, Herta's eyes lit up. "Simulation test?" Since he was here, why not test the simulated universe? "Nope," Takumi replied. "I'm just dropping them off. Mobius, we're heading back now. If you want to return later, just have Herta send you back." Mobius spoke up first: "Mobius, Vill-V, and Bronya will stay. I'll go back with you. There are some things at the Academy I need to take care of." She didn't plan to stay long—there was a lot of work to do back at the Academy. Hearing this, Takumi nodded. "Alright then." With that, he opened his imaginary space. "Tingyun, go ahead. We'll arrive shortly." Tingyun nodded and stepped into the space without hesitation. Mobius followed shortly after. After taking care of everything, Takumi bid farewell to the others and left this world entirely. The moment he disappeared, the Aeons immediately sensed it. The newly ascended Aeon had vanished? "How interesting!" "Can he just come and go from our world at will?" "Ahaha! This is truly intriguing!!" Aha turned his gaze toward the space station, fascinated. How could Takumi travel between worlds so freely? But no one could give them an answer now. Takumi returned to his home world and immediately teleported to where Ningguang was. When she saw him appear out of nowhere, Ningguang froze for a moment. But before she could speak, Takumi brought someone else out—Tingyun. Looking around, Tingyun was astonished. "Benefactor, have we arrived?" she asked curiously. Takumi nodded. "This is Ningguang. You'll be working with her from now on. Ningguang, this is Tingyun—she's a savvy businesswoman. The two of you should get along well." "If you need anything, talk to Prometheus. He'll provide all the support you need." Hearing that, Tingyun quickly nodded. "Understood, Benefactor. I'll coordinate with Miss Ningguang." She already knew what her job here would be. After a brief orientation, she'd get to work. With Tingyun settled, Takumi left and headed to the Academy, where he released Mobius. Once she stepped out, Mobius said: "I plan to explore this universe." After seeing the many universes in Honkai: Star Rail, she was now deeply curious about Takumi's world. Are there other habitable planets beyond this universe? All these questions were worth investigating. Once she began exploring the wider cosmos, various technologies could be developed and shared. She even planned to involve people from Alice's world. Even though it was just an ordinary world, if given time to integrate, their knowledge and capabilities would grow rapidly. Plus, their world was no longer suitable for space exploration. Dangerous edible creatures now roamed the cosmos. In contrast, Takumi's universe was completely undeveloped—a blank slate. How could one not be curious? She was determined to explore it. In fact... she had some rather bold ideas in mind.
