Welt Yang: "Raiden… Mei?!"

Welt Yang: "…"

Welt Yang: "Indeed, a very familiar name…"

Welt Yang: "I never expected that, even far away from my homeland, I would hear this name again."

Welt Yang: "It is a pity, however, that Miss Acheron is not the Mei I am familiar with…"

March 7th: "So Uncle Yang means… Miss Acheron's name really does match that old friend from your hometown?"

March 7th: "No way?!"

March 7th: "Can there really be such a coincidence in the world?"

Stelle: "First Miss Himeko, then Miss Acheron…"

Stelle: "Good grief, I'm starting to get interested in Uncle Yang's hometown."

Stelle: "Will I find another version of myself in Uncle Yang's hometown?"

Stelle: "I wonder if she likes trash cans too?"

Silver Wolf: "Perhaps the other you prefers trash bags?"

Qingque: "Trash can or trash bag, I feel like as long as it's not a toilet, it's acceptable."

Asta: "In the universe, there actually exist people with similar characteristics."

Asta: "What a strange phenomenon."

Madam Herta: "The universe is so big, nothing is strange."

Madam Herta: "But this name… hmm."

Madam Herta: "I'll keep it in mind."

Stelle: "Raiden Wangchuan Shou Mei!"

Stelle: "I've memorized it too!"

March 7th: "Hey, hey, memorized what?"

March 7th: "It's clearly Raiden Bosenmori Mei!"

March 7th: "Not 'Wangchuan Shou'!!"

(Little Context here: This is a play on the Chinese vs. Japanese readings of the same characters (忘川守). Stelle uses the literal Mandarin Pinyin: Wangchuan Shou and March 7th insists on the stylized Japanese (Kanji) reading used in the official localization: Bosenmori.)

Nahida: "Raiden Bosenmori Mei.…"

Nahida: "A very beautiful name, I will keep it firmly in my heart."

Nahida: "Just as Mr. Tiernan said, the universe should remember this name."

Lumine: "Yay, now everyone watching the video can remember this name!"

Lumine: "Everything Miss Acheron has done will no longer be remembered only by Mr. Tiernan."

Paimon: "First time I've felt that just remembering a name could be so meaningful."

Paimon: "If Mr. Tiernan could see this scene, he would definitely be very happy, right?"

Boothill: "Raiden Bosenmori Mei, is it?"

Boothill: "Since my Galaxy Ranger senior couldn't forget this name even after death."

Boothill: "Then I must learn from him and remember this name deeply!"

Boothill: "I won't forget this name until I die!"

Furina de Fontaine: "Yes, I will never forget it either!"

Acheron: "Thank you all."

Acheron: "My real name has long been buried in the passing years."

Acheron: "In this world, besides me, no one else knows my true name."

Acheron: "But now, my name has actually been remembered by others again…"

Acheron: "Hehe… what a long-lost feeling…"

Black Swan: "How is it?"

Black Swan: "Do you suddenly feel that the colors before you are a bit more vivid?"

Acheron: "Indeed… the red I can see has become brighter."

Acheron: "Perhaps, in the future, besides that touch of red, I will finally be able to see other colors too…"

(Wait, where is Raiden Ei's reaction?? Author, you forgot her reaction!)

....

『 Acheron's memory scene ends completely.

Back to the Horizon of Existence.

At this moment, Acheron is ready to execute her plan!

[ The golden dream is about to stir… ]

[ In the coming long night, you will likely encounter many setbacks and witness many tragedies, ]

[ In the end, all that remains in your eyes will be black and white. ]

Acheron's words echoed in Stelle's ears.

And in Ena's Dream,the drizzling black raindrops began to fall gradually with Acheron's words.

At the highest point of the dream, Boothill hung above the high tower, loading that Hunt flying star into the chamber!

Everything was completed in an orderly fashion; Ena's Dream had finally reached its end! 』

Stelle: "It's starting, it's starting!!"

Stelle: "Whoa, I suddenly feel like I'm burning up!"

Silver Wolf: "Don't burn, it'll be bad if you explode."

Aventurine: "This familiar rain… tsk tsk tsk."

Aventurine: "When I was struck by lightning, this rain was heavy."

Aventurine: "Looking at the scale of this rain now, it's far worse than back then."

Dr. Veritas Ratio: "Can't you tell?"

Dr. Veritas Ratio: "It hasn't truly begun yet."

March 7th: "No, has everyone noticed?"

March 7th: "Whenever there's a passionate scene like this, BGM inexplicably starts playing."

Silver Wolf: "Some is music that comes with Penacony."

Silver Wolf: "Some… should be deliberately added by that high-dimensional civilization editor, right?"

Silver Wolf: "Not to mention, it's matched really well."

Silver Wolf: "As soon as the music starts, you get goosebumps."

Guinaifen: "Sure enough, a video without BGM has no soul!"

Guinaifen: "In this scene, if there were no BGM, it wouldn't be this intense!"

Stelle: "Understood, my Sister Acheron comes with her own BGM."

Hotaru: "If we're talking about coming with BGM… I feel like Sunday is the one who really does?"

Hotaru: "After all, he will play the hymns himself."

March 7th: "Doesn't that mean we're doomed?!"

March 7th: "We can't beat someone who comes with their own BGM?!"

Qingque: "Tsk tsk tsk, as everyone knows, those who come with their own BGM are invincible!"

Stelle: "Damn, don't panic!"

Stelle: "Maybe when the time comes, I'll be able to bring my own BGM too."

Stelle: "I'll definitely kick his ass!"

Hu Tao: "Speaking of which… Mr. Boothill, did you need to climb to such a high place to fire?"

Boothill: "Of course, if I didn't climb higher than the surrounding buildings, what if this thing was blocked by a building when I fired it?"

Boothill: "Wouldn't I have become the ultimate clown in the history of the Galaxy Rangers?"

Boothill: "I'm not the type to drop the ball at a critical moment!"

Furina de Fontaine: "I have to say, the pose of Mr. Boothill hanging up there is actually quite cool!"

March 7th: "Hey, it's a pose that's perfect for taking pictures!"

Stelle: "I feel like the place where he's hanging could be turned into a photo spot!"

Stelle: "As expected of Penacony, there are business opportunities everywhere!"

Guinaifen: "This photo spot is really nice, I hope I have the chance to hang there and perform an upside-down noodle-eating act in the future!"

Guinaifen: "If I posted this online, I'd definitely go viral, right?"

Li Sushang: "Aren't you afraid of falling and having your head smashed into bean paste?"

Robin: "Ahem… although you won't really die from a fall in a sweet dream."

Robin: "But Penacony strictly prohibits such dangerous behavior…"

....

『 Above the high tower, Boothill pulled the trigger!

A gorgeous purple light, like a brilliant rainbow piercing the sky, dragging a magnificent tail flame, shot deep into the high sky!

At the same time, the sky was covered by black clouds

Began to shimmer with crimson lightning!

Acheron drew her blade before the pitch-black sun, pouring the power of Nihility into the crimson blade, and slashed toward this illusory Ena's Dream.

[ But please believe that in that black and white world, there will be a touch of red that flashes by, but when you make your choice— ]

[ —It will surely manifest once again. ]

The blade of Nihility fell, and the sweet dream belonging to Order was violently shattered by the power of Nihility.

Memoria rolled intensely, splashing everywhere.

People trapped in the dream were also floating around like duckweed in the vast ocean.

But high above the sky, ten thousand meteors streaked across in an instant, like the morning stars in the vast dark night, dazzling and eye-catching!

These meteors, accompanied by the purple flying star, headed toward the distant horizon, seemingly never to fall. 』

『 ....』

—✦Omniscient Viewer's Chat Lodge✦—

Furina de Fontaine: "WOW!!"

Furina de Fontaine: "This scene… this scene is truly…"

Furina de Fontaine: "Miss Acheron's slash…!"

Furina de Fontaine: "And so many, such beautiful meteors!"

Raiden Ei: "A scene… like a dream, like an illusion…"

Stelle: "Awesome!"

Stelle: "Sister Acheron's slash just cut the Ena's Dream right open!"

Stelle: "Even the Memoria was slashed out, and the power of Nihility directly enveloped everyone trapped in the dream!"

March 7th: "The sweet dream… became black and white under this slash…"

March 7th: "But high in the sky, those dreamy and gorgeous meteors still retained their dazzling colors."

Guinaifen: "Sisters, did you notice?"

Guinaifen: "Those blue meteors are flying in formation, centered around that purple flying star!"

Guinaifen: "Is this… a memorial to the fallen legend of the Galaxy Rangers?"

Guinaifen: "It's so spectacular, IT'S ABSOLUTELY SPECTACULAR!!"

Paimon: "Such an exciting scene, it even moved Paimon to tears, wuwuwu!"

Gallagher: "Ha, this guy Tiernan, he had such a grand send-off even after dying!"

Gallagher: "He really lives up to the cowboy he was back then!"

Qingque: "The Galaxy Rangers collectively seeing off the old man Tiernan, that's truly romantic!"

Jing Yuan: "As a fellow believer of the Aeon of the Hunt, I am very comforted to see this scene!"

Lumine: "The shooting stars of the Hunt only descend during the longest night."

Lumine: "And after that night... the dawn finally comes!"

Lumine: "Look! The stars have already risen—the Galaxy Rangers are arriving one after another!"

Lumine: "Now, all that's left is to wait for the sunrise, isn't it?"

Stelle: "Not waiting, but creating the dawn with our own hands!"

Stelle: "The time has come, this Ena's Dream should also draw to a close!"

March 7th: "Hey, Stelle, go for it!"

March 7th: "Let this Ena's Dream feel your firm belief!"

....

『 After Acheron drew her blade, Stelle fell out of the Horizon of Existence, starting to plummet in mid-air.

And those streaks of dazzling meteors

Also entered her pupils.

[ What you must do is ponder its significance, then return to the waking world. ]

After Acheron's words echoed in her heart again, Stelle saw Acheron suddenly appear, extend her right hand to grab her arm, and throw her fiercely toward the sky.

Suddenly, her thoughts began to turn chaotic, as if breaking through the boundary between reality and falsehood.

When she regained consciousness again, Stelle found that she and her companions

We're standing in front of Sunday.

[ That's where we all find our answers! ]

Acheron's last words fell into Stelle's ears. 』

『 ....』

Furina de Fontaine: "YAY!!"

Furina de Fontaine: "Everyone from the Express is back in reality to face Sunday!"

Furina de Fontaine: "This time, everyone is here!"

Furina de Fontaine: "How can we lose?"

March 7th: "Uh… Miss Furina, although this scene is indeed heart-stirring."

March 7th: "But we are fighting an Emanator…"

March 7th: "Is this still a bit too reckless?"

Stelle: "Where's Sister Acheron?"

Stelle: "Why did she disappear after sending us out!"

Stelle: "Shouldn't she be the one to come out and give Sunday a slash now?"

Black Swan: "Hehe, she is busy getting the people who were just enveloped in Nihility."

Black Swan: "Otherwise, if it takes too long, these people will really commit themselves to Nihility."

Stelle: "Huh?!"

Stelle: "So just us on the Express fighting the boss?"

Acheron: "I said in the video that the task of leading everyone to wake up can only be completed by you leading everyone!"

Silver Wolf: "Stelle, you have to step up."

Silver Wolf: "Look at you standing in the center position now, wouldn't it be fitting to step up?"

Hu Tao: "Miss Stelle is just complaining here."

Hu Tao: "Look at her in the video, isn't she stepping up quite well?"

March 7th: "Speaking of which, Dan Heng, what do you mean by holding your spear? Aren't you going to transform?"

Stelle: "I get it, Dan Heng is going to start slacking off."

Stelle: "That means it's not dangerous right now."

Hotaru: "The foundation of the Order's sweet dream has suffered a fatal blow. Sunday has already been weakened a lot now!"

Hotaru: "As long as everyone works together, we will definitely be able to defeat him!"

....

『 After a brief moment of confusion, everyone understood everything and began to take out their respective weapons with determined expressions to face Sunday directly.

[ …Have you broken free from the dream of Order? ]

Sunday looked at the group in front of him and uttered a grand divine voice.

The solemn and dignified hymn of Order was also played at this time.

[ We've done enough sleeping already, let's show them a wake-up call! ]

March 7th looked confident, not fearing Sunday at all right now.

[ Without Order, how can the weak be righteous? If you have any objection, feel free to make your case... ]

[ With 107,336 notes, I solemnly invite you to join the glorious chorus — and ascend to the heavens! ]

Sunday waved his conductor's baton and began to burst out with extremely powerful strength!

[ If the Dreamscape is indistinguishable from reality, can it still be called an illusion? ]

[ With this perfect melody I command — recreate paradise anew! ]

The overwhelming power surged down like a tidal wave, immediately blowing everyone away into the distance. 』

『 ....』

—✦Omniscient Viewer's Chat Lodge✦—

Stelle: "Holy crap, this is the weakened Sunday?!"

Stelle: "We couldn't even block the aftershock of his casual wave, and you're telling me this is weakened?"

Dr. Veritas Ratio: "An Emanator is an Emanator after all, even if weakened, it is not something ordinary people can contend with."

March 7th: "It's all because his BGM is too loud!"

March 7th: "Damn it, if we had BGM, we definitely wouldn't lose so miserably!"

Silver Wolf: "This hymn of Order is making my head buzz."

Silver Wolf: "Hey, isn't there a professional singer on the other side?"

Silver Wolf: "Shouldn't she be on stage too?"

....

『 Everyone struggled to stand up, looking at the majestic Sunday in front of them, their expressions grew more and more serious.

But at this moment, from the distant sky, a song suddenly came.

Pieces of light feathers drifted down, heading straight toward the group from the Express.

[ …Music? ]

Listening to this hopeful music, Sunday stopped his movements and began to freeze.

[ It seems that another voice has already appeared in the movement of Order… ]

[ The first and last dissonance of Penacony. ]

Welt stood up again, revealing a smile.

Stelle reached out and grasped a feather, having realized something, and injected her own will of Trailblaze into it.

Thus, in the void, the will of Trailblaze, manifested with the assistance of Harmony, turned into a long train and charged toward Sunday! 』

『 ....』

(This is the battle of the BGM)
