The Multiverse Trailblazer Chapter 53 53: I Have Never Had Nothing

"By the way, did a newcor arrive in the data processing room?"

A little girl with a petite figure and a youthful face, looking like soone's child wearing the sa uniform as the researchers, sat in her seat, swinging her short legs as she asked the female staff mber beside her.

"It seems like there is such a person, right?"

The female staff mber moved her gaze away from the screen, pushed up her glasses, and answered sowhat uncertainly.

"What do you an, 'it seems'? Don't you go there often? If there is a strange face, shouldn't you know about it right away?"

"That is true, but when I went there, I did not have any particular impression. I did not notice that newcor at all."

"Did you not ask around?"

"I did not ask. A newcor, after all. If he has ability, he will co out of there soon. If he does not, he will probably leave the space station before long. Why bother so much? Why are you suddenly so concerned about a newcor?"

"The main thing is that the newcor seems to have been here for half a month, but there has not been a single topic about him, not even a bit of news in the gossip group I specifically set up. It is almost as if a ghost has entered."

Just as the two were talking, a young man dressed in black walked over, placed a stack of papers in his hand on the table, and said softly, "The data calculations are finished. It is all here."

"Thanks." The female staff mber did not even look, and after thanking him, continued speaking to the colleague who looked like a little girl. "Maybe that newcor is just socially anxious, so he does not want to communicate much with people, which is why there is no information. Do not think too much about it. Look, the data has already been calculated, hurry up and get back to your own work."

"Hmm."

The two of them did not notice at all that the newcor they had been talking about for so long was Caelus, who had just submitted the data to them and walked past them.

"Partner, they did not notice us at all."

m flew around Caelus. During this ti, they had run into several people on the road, but those people did not even look at Caelus, who was dressed in black, with a certain pink unknown creature floating beside him.

"Although I have not managed to combine the two Paths of Nihility and Rembrance into my own power during the long ti I spent in the training room, I have indeed established a preliminary connection. The bridge between Nihility and Rembrance has already laid its foundation."

As Caelus said this, he passed by a researcher who was looking down at the tablet in his hand, patted the other person's shoulder, and said, "Long ti no see, old classmate."

The researcher looked up, sowhat puzzled. He looked at Caelus in front of him, frowned, and thought for quite a while before revealing an expression of sudden realization. He slapped his thigh and said, "I rember now. You are my high school deskmate, Caelus. It really has been a long ti. I did not expect you to co to the space station!"

"Yeah, yeah, it really has been a long ti."

"Ah, when did you co to the space station? I have not heard any news about newcors recently. Where are you working now?"

"I am in the data processing room. You know, newcors always start there."

"That is true. But I rember your grades were quite good back then. I believe you will soon be able to get through the newcor phase and officially join our project. Hey, are you interested in coming to our Biological Research Departnt? There are many magical creatures collected from all over the universe here. Trust , as long as we make enough achievents, we will definitely be able to attract Ms. Herta's attention!"

"Uh-huh. By the way, old classmate, do you rember that ti in high school when you lost your al card in the cafeteria, and I was the one who swiped mine for you?"

"Hiss... uh, it seems like there was sothing like that."

"Hmm, then how about you treat to a al?"

"You just want to treat you to a al, right? There is no need to be so roundabout. We were deskmates through all of high school, so there is no need to be so polite over such a small matter. Let us go, let us go, I will treat you right now!"

After a satisfying al, the researcher was on his way back to the office, but halfway there, he scratched his head, feeling as though he had forgotten sothing.

"Why was my appetite so big at lunch today? I ate so much stuff?"

Muttering to himself, he walked farther and farther away.

Caelus leaned to the side, watched the man leave, and said, "Implanting false mories, fabricating a past that does not exist, creating a certain sense of déjà vu in an inadvertent way. When I withdraw and leave, those false mories shatter like bubbles under the sun, and the unreasonable and blank parts will fill themselves in with reasonable and logical mories."

"And if I do not want to attract their attention, then in their eyes, I am the flowers and grass in their mory, the scattered papers piled together, a passerby who happened to walk by, or a string of data flickering across the computer screen."

"I am the existence they see and hear every day in their mories, I am the past in their mories that is hard to distinguish between true and false, I am a corner they glance at inadvertently in their mories, I am an important person they once forgot in their mories."

"That sounds amazing, Partner!"

m clapped quite appropriately, giving Caelus a proper audience response.

"It only sounds amazing. I think most mokeepers of the Garden of Recollection should be able to do this."

Caelus shook his head. He did not think his thods were outrageous or especially powerful. The mokeepers of the Garden of Recollection were definitely better at manipulating mories than he was. Compared to those seniors who had stepped onto this Path earlier than him, he was just a newcor who had only recently begun.

"Let us go, m. I heard that the Trailblazers of the Astral Express have arrived. Let us go take a look."

Caelus had heard from the system that if it were not for his abandoned fate, he would have boarded the Astral Express, beco one of the Trailblazers, traveled to different planets on adventures, solved the troubles of local people, and even saved disasters that could endanger the universe.

That would have been a magnificent story, one with tears and laughter, sorrow and joy, and a group of the best Partners to whom he could entrust his life.

["If you want to, you can still board the Astral Express now, beco one of the Trailblazers, and once again have those Partners worth entrusting your life to."]

"No need."

Caelus shook his head and had no intention of boarding the Astral Express.

"I am , and she is her. I have no interest in taking away everything that belongs to her. Moreover, I am not soone who has nothing, so why should I crave what others have?"

"And perhaps it is precisely because I was not chosen that I had the possibility of being chosen by you. Compared to those future Partners I might have had, do I not already have the best Partner now, System?"

[..."That is a really great statent. I am moved by it, Caelus."]

"m! Partner! I am also a Partner!"

"Yes, m is also my important Partner."

He looked at the coquettish m, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, as if he were smiling.

Only those who have nothing would crave to seize everything others possess, and he had never been alone.
