若问银河中最知名的凡人属谁:路易斯·弗莱明,这位驰名七百余琥珀纪的老人必在名单其列。他是星际和平公司的创始人,一万四千六百届董事会中唯二雷打不动的终身董事,星神之下全宇宙最有权势之人。作为公司的最大股东,路易斯·弗莱明持有的财富已无法估算,许多人甚至戏称这位神秘的富翁为执掌「财富」的星神。
银河中有人坚定认为路易斯·弗莱明不过是个传说,盖因时光过于漫长,凡人之躯不可承受。有人猜测路易斯是家族代代传承的名,有人认为弗莱明董事只是「公司」刻意维持的神话;有人相信老人以财富换得了永生;有人坚称路易斯化身数据,抛弃凡人躯壳;更有人说弗莱明终身董事早已飞升登神……而星际和平公司的官方说法则是路易斯·弗莱明存在过,并且仍然存在,除此之外,一切俱为最高机密。
Louis Fleming (Character)
If we were to compose a list of the most famous mortals in the entire cosmos, then Louis Fleming — the man famous for seven hundred and so Amber Eras — must have his name there. He is the founder of the Interastral Peace Corporation, a bona fide life-time member of the Board of Directors, and the only person who had attended all 14,600 board meetings. He is also the most powerful person in the universe after the Aeons. As the IPC's biggest stakeholder, Louis Fleming's wealth is now literally beyond count. Many even joked that this mysterious tycoon is the Aeon of "Wealth."
Some are convinced that Louis Fleming is only a legend. No mortal body can possibly endure such an eternity. Some surmised that "Louis" is a name inherited by generations of the same family. Some believed Director Fleming is a myth deliberately maintained by the IPC. Some believed the man used his wealth to obtain immortality. Some claimed Louis had turned himself into data and discarded his mortal shell. Some even said Director Fleming had already ascended and became a god... The official line from the Interastral Peace Corporation is that Louis Fleming had definitely existed and still exists. Apart from that, all other information about the man remains top-class secrets.
