I Just Wanted to Be a Galactic Hunter—Why Am I on the Wanted List?-Chapter 248: Epilogue
As Ms. Carnina on the sickbed breathed her last, the instrument monitoring her vital signs at the head of the bed emitted a "beep beep" alarm.
The others in the villa were all awakened by the noise, and then Loren sensed several women in nursing uniforms approaching this room on the third floor.
Loren looked at Ms. Carnina on the sickbed, who had departed with a smile, took off his hat, and bowed slightly.
"May misfortune and pain stay far away from you from now on, Ms. Camilla Qin Carnina."
Slowly straightening up, Loren glanced at the painting on the wall opposite the bed, then stepped towards the window of this bedroom.
"I will remember your story, Ms. Carnina."
After murmuring this to himself, he reached out, opened the window before him, lightly jumped out, and vanished into the endless night...
A few seconds after Loren left.
The bedroom door was pushed open from outside, and several nursing staff, after checking Carnina's vital signs, all fell into a heavy silence...
———————
Ms. Carnina's funeral was held three days later.
It was also the day before the start of this year's Silver Radiance Festival.
Federal Calendar 7708, November 20th, morning.
In a cemetery within Silver Radiance Main City.
A light rain began to fall from the sky.
The entire population of Silver Radiance Main City was mourning the passing of this hall-of-fame singer.
Inside and outside this cemetery, it was packed with countless people who had come spontaneously to bid farewell.
In other star domains of the Federation, upon learning the news of her death, the populace also spontaneously held large-scale memorial activities.
During the 20 years of Ms. Carnina's frenzied work, her fame reached a height no singer had ever achieved before.
A significant portion of the entire Federation's population were her fans.
Only someone like Loren, who came from the slums and was so poorly informed, would seem completely unaware of Ms. Carnina's lifetime achievements.
Even that slacker Retab Collin came.
Loren held a black umbrella, standing amidst the crowded throng.
Many Superhumans also erected simple energy shields to prevent the light rain from touching them.
When Retab Collin saw Loren, he was also taken aback. He gave Loren a slight nod, then pretended not to know him.
"This guy Loren... attending the funeral in his true form?" Retab Collin wondered with some confusion in his heart.
This really didn't seem like his style...
Loren was indeed attending this funeral using his true appearance.
To show a bit of respect for Ms. Carnina, he wasn't using any disguise.
It must be said, Loren's original attire was perfectly suited for a solemn funeral.
Standing in the corner of the cemetery, he looked like an ordinary fan who had come because of her fame, utterly unremarkable, with an extremely low presence.
Dressed entirely in black, a white flower pinned to his chest, holding a somber black umbrella, just like the other fans who had come to bid farewell to the idol in their hearts...
On the little finger of his left hand holding the black umbrella, he wore a deep emerald green ring.
And inside that ring were stored 11.78 million Spirit Stones, along with the intelligence regarding the politician Loren was to assassinate...
Of course, the vast interior of the spatial ring also contained a few other things.
For example, an invitation ticket to the Silver Radiance Festival.
A small yet exquisite player, containing all of Ms. Carnina's life's works, numbering in the thousands.
A thick diary, recording the subtle memories of Ms. Carnina and her partner.
And, a photo of Ms. Carnina and her girlfriend from their youth, the two smiling and gazing deeply at each other.
Most importantly, there was also an exquisitely detailed hand-drawn map inside the ring, showing a hidden location within the Beastkin Star Domain.
This was the reward Ms. Carnina paid Loren for the second commission.
On the map, there was also a sentence: "The inheritance site can only be entered during the Beastkin Star Domain's traditional festival—the 'Moonlight Festival'."
After seeing the note on the map, Loren asked Raven if it knew when the Beastkin Star Domain's "Moonlight Festival" was held...
And Raven's reply was:
"When it was studying the Ancient Orcish Script, it had seen relevant information."
"The Moonlight Festival is one of the oldest festivals in the Beastkin Star Domain."
"It is held once every year, on the last full moon night before winter arrives."
"This festival is held for the reproduction of the various races living within the Beastkin Star Domain."
"On this night, beings who have mutual affection can express their love to each other and begin reproducing..."
"After the bountiful autumn, throughout the entire harsh winter, opposite sexes become partners to pass the long winter..."
"The Moonlight Festival is also the only festival within the Beastkin Star Domain that all races celebrate."
"Even warring sides will tacitly agree to a ceasefire on this day..."
"It is also the grandest festival in the Beastkin Star Domain, and quite characteristic of it..."
Back then, after listening to Raven's introduction, Loren was speechless for a long time.
Great, after a bountiful autumn, spend the whole winter holed up in a house in heat... some of my stereotypes are deepening...
Truly worthy of a star domain where orcs are the main species...
Loren silently grumbled in his heart.
At the same time, Loren also scheduled his trip to the Beastkin Star Domain for next autumn.
This year's autumn in the Beastkin Star Domain had already passed; it was currently winter there...
Thanks to the efforts of the Gods of the Star Realm, the four seasons in many star domains are synchronized, and even the timing of entering a particular season is almost the same...
Seemingly lofty and aloof, the Gods are quietly influencing the Star Realm in every aspect...
And the most interesting thing about this entire affair is Loren's future plans.
Even though he had never been to the Beastkin Star Domain, he had already quietly scheduled two trips there...
As if "Fortune" was deliberately pointing Loren towards the Beastkin Star Domain...
November 20th, late morning.
Inside the cemetery.
The light rain filling the sky had gradually stopped.
The sky also began to clear, a ray of sunlight breaking through the gaps in the clouds and spilling down.
With the appearance of sunlight, Ms. Carnina's funeral also drew to its close.
After bowing, the crowd slowly rose and began to face the world of the living...
The crowd began to move towards the cemetery exit...
Many of the Powerful Individuals who came to attend the funeral also directly ascended into the sky and left the place...
Even Retab Collin, who had come from afar, mixed into the ascending crowd and quietly departed...
Under the black umbrella, Loren silently observed those Powerful Individuals ascending into the sky, not uttering a word.
