Star Railway: The Last of the Grammer Riders

Chapter 54 Conversation between Mother and Daughter

Led by Sambo, everyone headed towards the upper area.

Bronya had already met Cocolia, the Great Guardian, one step ahead of time.

"Mother, I'm back." Bronya greeted Cocolia as usual as if nothing had happened.

"Bronya! I'm glad you're back... I'm glad you're back..." Cocolia, who had been worried for a few days, couldn't help but give Bronya a hug when she saw her.

"You've worked so hard these past few days... Are you hurt? Are you hungry? I'll ask the butler and the chef to come over right away..."

"Mother... I'm fine. But I don't want to see Sebastian now. I just want to have a good chat with you. As a conversation between a daughter and a mother..." Bronya could feel that her mother had changed and was no longer as indifferent as before, but she still shook her head and said.

"I have been active in the lower district these days, and have experienced battles of all sizes, and witnessed various tragedies... Mother, I want to ask you... why did you completely separate the upper and lower districts back then? I don't quite understand... your approach."

"Then Bronya, tell me about what you have seen and heard." Cocolia said in a much colder voice.

"Well... after the failed pursuit in the Edge Passage, I and the wanted [Outsider] were somehow taken to the Lower District." Bronya could sense that Cocolia's tone had become much more serious.

"We formed a temporary alliance due to the pressure of the living environment, and together helped the residents of the lower area solve some... survival problems. In the end, we defeated a machine called Swarlow and obtained some truths... the truth about the [Star Core]."

"Keep talking, I'm listening." Cocolia continued to listen.

"Mother, I think those [aliens] are definitely not the villains we previously imagined... Perhaps with their help we can defeat the cold wave! And save Beloberg from the disaster!" said Bronya.

"Mother... You have always known the truth about the Star Core, right? Perhaps I will be able to access that knowledge one day. One of the prices you have to pay to become a Guardian is to carry these secrets forever.

So... forgive my offense, I think it is a wrong decision to order the killing of outsiders. If we want to solve the crisis brought by the [Star Core], they may be..." Bronya was about to continue but was stopped by Cocolia.

"Bronya...you said that everything you know is just the tip of the snow mountain, but it seems that you are ready to face the real truth, right?" Cocolia said seriously.

Bronya didn't say anything but just nodded.

"Well, I knew this moment would come sooner or later, but I didn't expect it to be so soon... Come with me, Bronya." Cocolia said. "This dying world... You should hear its voice."

As Cocolia finished speaking, Bronya clearly felt a splitting headache. Her mother's voice was no longer familiar. Instead, it was replaced by a hollow voice that pierced her heart.

Cocolia took Bronya out of Klipperburg.

After the two men walked out of the Iron Guard restricted area, several people coming up from the lower city area also arrived.

After the previous experiences, Sambo was trapped by the crowd and unable to escape.

"Dear brothers and sisters, please let me go... After all, I, Sangbo, am already on the wanted list. If I am seen, it will implicate you..." Sangbo begged for mercy.

"No! You left us and ran away last time, and we were almost caught! We won't let you leave easily this time!" San Yue Qi said angrily. "And the time at the mechanical settlement, if you were there, at least things wouldn't be so troublesome!"

"How about this? There will definitely be guards guarding up there. I'll lead them away and you can sneak away?" Sambo gave an idea.

"Okay, remember to lead all the Iron Guards away! Otherwise, we will not forgive you even if we become ghosts!" Xier threatened.

"Don't worry, Sister Xier! I, old Sangbo, am still very trustworthy! Leave everything to me!" Sangbo patted his chest and said confidently.

Then, Sambo quietly walked out of the furnace core and went out through some blind spots, exposing some flaws and attracting the attention of the Silver Mane Iron Guards on duty.

When they saw his blue hair and flashy clothes, they immediately recognized him as a wanted criminal. They only left two people to guard the furnace core and the rest went in pursuit.

Seeing that there were only two people left, Sambo also left.

Xing then took out the optical camouflage core that Ye Tianyu had prepared in the space to block out vision.

After everyone crushed it, they could see that their companions in front of them had disappeared.

Xier was also shocked when she used it for the first time.

After all, this is more powerful than one's own quantization.

After a while of trying, everyone was completely sure that they would not be discovered and bravely walked out of the furnace.

After officially stepping back into the upper area, everyone could clearly feel that the air had become fresher and colder.

After discussing in a corner where to go next, they decided to go to the [Perpetual Motion Mechanical House] where Sylva, a person they could trust, was.

Xing walked to the door and knocked.

"Who is it? We're closed today, come back tomorrow!" Shiluwa shouted from inside.

"It was us who helped you fix things." Xing said.

"Huh? Ah, I remember! It's you! Eh? Where are they?" Shiluwa opened the door but saw no one.

"Let us go in first." Dan Heng said.

"Ah, oh." Xiluwa looked at the front in confusion. When she looked carefully, she found that there seemed to be several vague figures in front of her, and she immediately stepped aside to make way.

After everyone came in, Shiluwa closed the door.

And the figures of the crowd also appeared at this time.

"Wow! How did you do this?!" Xiluwa said in shock, looking at the people in front of him.

"This is an invention of one of our partners. We'll talk about the details later. We came to you today to give you this." March 7 handed a letter to Shiluwa.

After watching it once, I finally understood everything.

"No wonder I haven't seen Bronya recently. It turns out you have been through something like this. It's impossible to make up such a tortuous experience, not to mention that there is Miss Seele, the representative of the lower district, next to you. It's just that [Star Core]... Then I know why Bronya asked you to come to me." Sylva said.

"When I was still a member of the City Builders, the subject I studied as a researcher was [Star Core]. I didn't expect to hear this word again after being expelled from the City Builders... Come on, I will tell you everything I know..." Shiluwa told everyone everything he knew about [Star Core].

Soon after he finished speaking, Shiluwa was about to take them to face the core of the star, but unexpectedly forgot that Jeppard would visit today.

　I'm back to normal, I'm fine now. I'm just a little depressed.
