[Ningguang: If it was just the IPC's debt collector named Topaz arriving in Belobog, it shouldn't cause Lord Takagi to choose to go to Belobog early.]
[Kaeya: Yes, if there wasn't anything special, Lord Takagi should have chosen to send the second batch of travelers like Lisa and La Signora back to Teyvat before going to Belobog.]
[Hu Tao: If that's the case, then perhaps we won't be able to see Lord Takagi's affairs in Belobog through Cloud Retainer's live broadcast lens.]
[Arataki Itto: It seems so. Should we still be glad that guys like The Doctor and La Signora can follow Takagi to Belobog?]
[Sangonomiya Kokomi: At least for now, that seems to be exactly the case.]
"Lord Takagi, did something happen in Belobog?"
Cloud Retainer came before Takagi and asked curiously.
By now, her research on the deteriorated version of the Xianzhou Automaton at the Space Station had hit a bottleneck, and she didn't have extra time to obtain related rewards through the Forgotten Hall.
Therefore, she was naturally happy to be able to go to Belobog during the last period of this trip. However, she was more curious about the reason Takagi went to Belobog in advance.
La Signora, Lisa, Nahida, The Doctor, and others also looked at Takagi curiously.
"It's just a small personal matter."
"You don't need to worry too much about it."
"Find a seat and sit down. I plan to activate the Astral Express's warp function."
Takagi said.
Hearing this, Cloud Retainer and the others stopped asking questions and quickly found a seat to sit down.
After that, Takagi also learned through his phone that Himeko and the others were ready, so he directly activated the Astral Express's warp.
As the dazzling white light enveloped Takagi's Astral Express and Himeko's Astral Express, the two trains directly disappeared from Herta Space Station's platform.
The next second, outside the massive Planet Jarilo-VI, the two Astral Expresses sailed out of the subspace gate one after another and docked in Jarilo-VI's planetary orbit.
"Have we already arrived at Belobog?"
"That spaceship in the distance should be the IPC's spaceship."
On Himeko's Astral Express, Welt looked at the completely different scenery outside the window and said with some emotion.
"Already arrived at Belobog?" March 7th, getting up from the floor, rubbed her backside and quickly came to Welt's side.
After seeing the massive frozen planet outside the window, March 7th also showed a surprised expression.
"We really arrived, this is too fast."
March 7th said.
"This is Lord Takagi's power."
"His presence has even greatly enhanced the power of the Astral Express."
Himeko smiled.
Although her expression was no different from usual, after directly experiencing Takagi using Trailblazing Power for the Astral Express's transmission, Himeko was quite excited in her heart.
Just then, Himeko's phone received a text message notification. She picked up her phone and found that it was a message from Takagi.
[Takagi: I'll go meet a friend first, and we'll meet in Belobog later.]
[Takagi: Oh right, let Stelle come to Belobog. This can be considered her first Trailblaze journey.]
"Himeko, what's wrong?"
March 7th looked over curiously.
"Nothing, Lord Takagi just went ahead."
"Let's go, let's get ready to land too."
Himeko turned around and looked at Dan Heng, March 7th, Stelle, and the others.
If it were according to past situations, Himeko would likely be more willing to let young people like Stelle, March 7th, and Dan Heng go on the Trailblaze journey. But since Takagi was currently on Belobog, she naturally didn't plan to stay on the Astral Express all the time.
"Alright, it's time for another Trailblaze journey."
"Stelle, let's go get ready together."
March 7th said, and excitedly pulled Stelle's hand to start getting ready.
"Dan Heng, you go get ready too."
"And remind March 7th and Stelle."
"Tell them to avoid conflict with the IPC people as much as possible."
Himeko said, raising her eyes to look at the spaceship with the IPC's logo in the distance outside the window.
"Understood."
Dan Heng nodded and stepped to follow Stelle and March 7th.
Belobog, Overworld.
[Venti: Has Lord Takagi arrived? That means this batch of travelers from Mondstadt going to Belobog might encounter Lord Takagi.]
[Diluc: Although Belobog isn't small, if that person is determined, they should be able to meet Lord Takagi.]
[Ei: The Geo Archon actually went to Belobog via Mondstadt's Astral Express? Was it specially permitted by the Anemo Archon?]
[Venti: Who knows? Perhaps it's just because Morax was lucky enough to win an Astral Express ticket.]
[Ei: All 4 travelers from Mondstadt going to Belobog are from Mondstadt, except for one person from Liyue. And, it's a God from Liyue.]
[Ei: To say this has nothing to do with Mondstadt's Anemo Archon, no one would believe it, right?]
[Venti: Ehe!]
[Collei: Amber should have a chance to meet Lord Takagi during this trip.]
[Kaeya: There should be a chance, after all, Cloud Retainer is live streaming Lord Takagi's movements. Not only Amber, Noelle should also really want to see Takagi.]
[Hu Tao: Uh, has anyone seen my guest, Zhongli?]
[Tartaglia: You can't find Zhongli?]
[Hu Tao: He said he had something recently, so he needed to ask for leave from me first, and then I couldn't find him.]
[Tartaglia: That's really a rare occurrence.]
"Is this Belobog?"
After The Doctor was teleported to Belobog with Takagi, he immediately looked around curiously.
"Although I knew the situation here would definitely be completely different from Herta Space Station,"
"But indeed, when actually being here, one still can't help but feel a surge of curiosity."
Cloud Retainer said with emotion.
La Signora: "The environment here is somewhat similar to Snezhnaya."
After Lisa looked around, she said:
"Speaking of which, the atmosphere here has changed a lot compared to when I first saw it through the live stream and the last time I came here to travel."
"Everyone has smiles on their faces, and there are many more merchants and vendors selling various goods and food."
Nahida nodded and said in agreement:
"Because Lord Takagi has changed this place, everyone has gradually become happier."
"Moreover, there are many people here wearing clothes different from those in Belobog."
"It should be because this place has connected with the Universe,"
"So people from other worlds have come here to make contact with Belobog."
Takagi summoned Bubble the Trotter and, after letting it move freely, turned to look at Nahida, Lisa, and the other four.
"Next, I plan to go to Natasha's house."
"Do you plan to act freely, or follow me?"
"If you plan to act freely, please be careful not to cause trouble here."
Speaking of this, Takagi turned his gaze towards The Doctor.
Belobog is not Herta Space Station, after all. With The Doctor's current power, he is a threat to many Belobog residents. Therefore, Takagi felt it was necessary to warn The Doctor in advance.
"I don't have any specific destination for now, so I'll follow Lord Takagi for the time being."
The Doctor said with a smile.
He naturally saw through Takagi's warning, but he didn't care about it. Although he wanted to move freely in Belobog, he knew the time for free movement wouldn't be too long. In addition, he was really curious about the reason Takagi had rushed to Belobog in advance, so he naturally chose to act with Takagi.
"Miss Natasha, since that's the case, I'll also act with Lord Takagi."
Lisa said with a smile.
Immediately, Cloud Retainer, La Signora, and Nahida also expressed their intention to act with Takagi.
"Since that's the case, then come with me."
Takagi nodded, turned around, and walked forward, knocking on the door of Natasha's adoptive mother, Madam Vache.
Before long, the butler appeared at the door and opened the gate for Takagi and the others. The butler was first surprised to see Takagi, then quickly invited Takagi and the others into the house, guiding Takagi and the others to where Natasha and Madam Vache were. After confirming that Takagi and the others had entered the bedroom, the butler turned and left. He didn't want to disturb the conversation between Takagi, Natasha, and Madam Vache.
"Natasha, Madam Vache, we meet again."
Takagi entered the bedroom door and said, looking at Natasha, who was sitting beside the bed, holding Madam Vache's hand tightly.
"Takagi, you came so quickly?"
Natasha turned around and looked at Takagi, asking with a surprised expression.
"Yes, after receiving your message, I naturally needed to come and take a look."
Takagi glanced at Natasha's tired face and red eyes, then stepped towards the bedside. Lisa, Cloud Retainer, and the others followed closely behind. And as Cloud Retainer approached, the Teyvat group also noticed Madam Vache's abnormality.
[Qiqi: This... madam's... complexion, is very... bad!]
[Xiangling: Is Natasha's mother sick?]
[Tighnari: I'm afraid it's not as simple as just being sick.]
[Barbara: Miss Natasha, like me, has embarked on the Path of Abundance, and she even has a dedicated Light Cone gifted by Lord Takagi. If it were just sickness, Miss Natasha should be able to cure Madam Vache.]
[Baizhu: Madam Vache's condition... If I'm not mistaken, her lifespan has reached its end.]
[Dehya: So that's how it is, is this the reason Lord Takagi came to Belobog in advance?]
[Nilou: That's too cruel, the Belobog Overworld and Underworld have only been connected for a very short time, Miss Natasha has only just reunited with Madam Vache, why would something like this happen?]
[Kaveh: There's nothing that can be done, Madam Vache is old after all. Although the current situation is indeed a bit cruel for Miss Natasha.]
[Faruzan: Could it be that Miss Natasha sent a message asking Lord Takagi to come, hoping that Lord Takagi could help Madam Vache?]
[Collei: If it's Lord Takagi, he should be able to help Madam Vache, right?]
[Tartaglia: Even Lord Takagi, extending a person's lifespan should be a very difficult thing, right?]
[Collei: But, if using the fruits from the potted plant on the Astral Express, it should be possible, right? I saw Lord Takagi pick two more fruits from the potted plant earlier.]
[Arataki Itto: Is that true? I actually missed it! Wait, why pick two fruits?]
[Kuki Shinobu: Perhaps Lord Takagi also wants Madam Vache and Natasha, the mother and daughter, to eat the Abundance fruit together and both become long-life species.]
[Lyney: Speaking of which, Lord Takagi did mention at Herta Space Station that he planned to let Madam Vache try the fruits from the potted plant.]
[Lynette: So, through the current situation, can we know if the fruits on the potted plant on the Astral Express have the power to turn short-lived species into long-life species?]
"Sorry, Takagi, I know you are busy leading the passengers on a tour."
"But mother really has something she wants to say to you."
Natasha said apologetically to Takagi.
After seeing The Doctor, Nahida, Cloud Retainer, and La Signora, as well as several other strangers, she knew that Takagi was busy with his tourism business.
"It's okay, I was planning to come to Belobog recently anyway."
Takagi patted Natasha's shoulder, sat down beside her, and turned his gaze towards Madam Vache.
"Takagi, you've come."
Madam Vache smiled and tremblingly reached out her hand to Takagi.
"Yes, I'm here."
Takagi took her hand and said.
"Sorry to make you come all this way."
"But I was afraid I wouldn't be able to see you again, so I shamelessly asked Natasha to send you a message."
"Fortunately, you came while this body of mine is still holding on."
Madam Vache said with relief.
"Actually, if you're willing, I can try to treat you."
Takagi said.
The treatment he spoke of was naturally not conventional medical treatment. Even though he had obtained the authority to bring back the dead from Yaoshi the Abundance, he had not obtained the authority to extend a person's lifespan. His treatment method was naturally the Abundance fruit on the Astral Express.
"You don't have to comfort me, Takagi."
"I understand my condition."
"This isn't sickness, it's just life reaching its end."
"Natasha has already used her power to cure all the illnesses on my body."
"Even if your medical skills are better than Natasha's, you probably can't extend my lifespan."
Madam Vache shook her head and continued:
"However, I'm not sad about this."
"Before my life comes to an end, I can reunite with Natasha."
"And, I can also meet you."
"However, it's impossible to say there are no regrets."
"If this old woman could see the scene of Natasha and you walking down the aisle before reaching the end, it would be great."
Lisa: "!!!"
Natasha: "..."
Madam Vache smiled gently and laboriously brought Takagi's hand and Natasha's hand together.
"Takagi, can I entrust Natasha to you?"
Madam Vache said.
[Yae Miko: It seems this Madam Vache didn't call Lord Takagi here to help her extend her lifespan.]
[Kamisato Ayato: It's just because she is worried that Natasha will have no one to take care of her in the future, so she called Lord Takagi over, planning to entrust Miss Natasha to Lord Takagi in person.]
[Tighnari: In her eyes, Miss Natasha likes Lord Takagi, right? Perhaps, she also thinks that Lord Takagi likes Miss Natasha.]
[Kamisato Ayaka: As expected, mothers care about their children at all times.]
[Lumine: Could it be that Lord Takagi is really going to agree to Madam Vache?]
[Aether: Are you that worried about that Takagi's marriage, Lumine?]
[Lumine: That has nothing to do with you, right?]
[Aether: ...]
[Alice: You don't have to worry too much, Traveler.]
[Alice: In other circumstances, Takagi would probably find it difficult to refuse Madam Vache. But don't forget, Takagi has a fruit that is very likely to extend a person's lifespan!]
[Lumine: Uh, I didn't say I was worried!]
[Alice: Those who understand, understand.]
[Lumine: I'm exhausted...]
