Genshin Impact: Joining the Genius Society

And just like that, aside from Asta,

There was now another gossip enthusiast.

After confirming from Asta that Herta really had proposed to Su Ran—

March 7th was so excited she couldn’t even sleep at night.

Unfortunately, Stelle suffered because of it.

At night, she had to listen to March’s endless chatter.

During the day, she had to participate in Herta’s experiments,

And in her spare time, dig through trash cans around the station.

She was practically exhausted.

Still—

Every time she returned and saw an extra 50,000 credits in her account, she felt pretty satisfied.

"Let me tell you—what Asta told me is way more explosive than what Su Ran said that day!"

After getting closer to Stelle,

March 7th had completely adopted her as her best friend.

After all, the passengers on the Astral Express were all quite different.

Uncle Yang and Himeko were too mature.

Dan Heng was the opposite gender—and too serious, hardly smiling.

Before, March could only hang out with Pom-Pom.

Now that she had Stelle—

She was absolutely thrilled.

Even though Stelle had technically been "born" less than a week ago.

But seriously—

What kind of baby grows this fast?

"Yeah, yeah, I got it."

Stelle was still unfamiliar with the universe,

So she wasn’t very interested in gossip.

Honestly—

It’d be more helpful if March told her which trash cans had hidden treasures.

"Ah... you’re so perfunctory..."

But seeing how exhausted Stelle looked, march couldn’t bring herself to complain.

These past few days,

Stelle had been constantly participating in Herta’s experiments.

March didn’t know the specifics,

But it looked tiring.

What she didn’t know was—

Stelle wasn’t tired because of experiments.

She was tired from digging through trash cans.

No one understood why she was so obsessed with them.

The researchers at Herta Space Station were confused too.

But since she was Herta’s test subject— 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

No one dared say anything.

No matter how capable the researchers were,

None of them were anywhere near Herta’s level.

Even Asta didn’t complain—

So who would dare?

Besides, the station offered great research conditions,

Gathered top talent,

And it was excellent.

No one wanted to leave.

"Forget it. You should rest. I’ll tell you later when you have time."

The Astral Express would only stay here a few more days anyway.

After that, they’d set off on a new trailblazing journey.

By then, Stelle wouldn’t be tied up with experiments,

And would have plenty of time to chat.

"March, don’t you want to recover your memories? Su Ran has been studying Uncle Yang’s memories these days—why don’t you join them?"

A slightly more alert Stelle suddenly suggested.

After all—

Two geniuses were here right now.

Herta and Su Ran.

If she missed this chance,

She might never get another.

"Wait—you’re right! Why didn’t I think of that?!"

March suddenly had a realization.

How had she overlooked something so important?

This place had some of the most brilliant minds in the universe.

Maybe they could help her recover her memories.

Even if not—

They might at least find some clues.

She’d been so busy gossiping,

She had completely forgotten what mattered most.

"I’m going to find them right now!"

Watching March rush out of the room,

Stelle reached out slightly.

"At this hour... they’re probably resting..."

But March was already long gone.

No way she could hear that.

Stelle sighed helplessly—

Then turned around and flopped onto March’s bed,

Falling asleep instantly.

"So this is converting Imaginary energy into such a dangerous form... interesting."

Looking at the Honkai energy extracted by Su Ran,

Herta was impressed.

This level of technology didn’t seem like something from the current era.

Whoever developed it—

Was definitely a genius.

"But what’s the use of such dangerous energy?"

"Not much. That’s not what I’m interested in."

Unstable Honkai energy couldn’t compare to Imaginary energy.

What interested Su Ran—

Was the Herrscher Authorities.

Some of those abilities were downright absurd.

Ideal fluid, molecular manipulation, electromagnetism...

Even in modern interstellar civilization,

These powers were incredibly powerful.

Because even now,

No one could claim to have fully mastered those phenomena.

"Herta, do you think creating matter out of nothing sounds outrageous?"

Just the concept of "understanding structure" alone—Was already unbelievable.

"Of course it’s outrageous. Even matter conversion is still a challenge—let alone creating something from nothing."

Even with how advanced interstellar civilization was,

There were still countless unsolved problems.

To Herta,

Su Ran was the greatest surprise she had ever encountered.

Technologies that once seemed impossible—

Or only existed in fiction—

He had made real.

Even something like the Equivalent Exchange Device he proposed earlier—

Herta believed it might actually be achievable.

He had already broken through numerous universal bottlenecks—

Like ultra-long-distance teleportation.

So even if he now claimed he could create matter from nothing—

She wouldn’t find it strange.

Maybe just... slightly humiliating.

After all, she was supposed to be a genius too.

Yet now she found herself admiring someone else’s talent.

But then again—

Any other genius would probably feel the same.

So she let it go.

Just as the two were discussing Honkai theories—

Someone knocked on Herta’s office door.

For convenience, Stelle and Asta had permission to enter freely.

Anyone who still needed to knock—

Was probably an outsider.

"Come in."

After receiving permission,

March 7th cautiously poked her head inside.
