(Translated from Kadian into Modern Chinese below)
On the 35th day of Zheyue, in the 12th year of Longqing, at the Yanping Space Center of the Kade Federal Empire.
The people of two planets in the solar system were watching this place intently.
As I watched the spaceship, which embodied the highest technological achievements of both planets, fly off into the unknown reaches of space, a smile tugged at my lips. The excitement of meeting that person moments ago still lingered in my chest, but suddenly my head spun, and my body involuntarily tipped backward.
Yet my body didn’t make intimate contact with the floor. Instead, it remained tilted at a 45-degree angle to the ground.
Was my sense of balance really that good? Impossible.
It was my apprentice, Arabella. She saw me falling and caught me just in time. She really was a fine apprentice.
“Lord Yi, are you all right?” She couldn’t hide the worry in her expression.
I gently waved a hand to show that I was fine.
But to think I could fall over just standing there. Was I really getting old?
Time flies… Today was the 35th day of Zheyue… Come to think of it, it had been exactly 300 years.
“What year is it in the Gregorian calendar over on Earth?”
I’d never forgotten that. Why couldn’t I remember today? My consciousness began to grow hazy again.
“May 20, 2326,” Arabella answered as quickly as ever.
Is that so… As my consciousness gradually blurred, I seemed to realize something.
It's uncomfortable to watch as the angle of view changes.
