Time : Sometime in the Very far Future.

Location : Earth.

As Ming Lin walks towards his research lab at 5am, the slightest breeze entering through the folds of clothes tickles his neck, the after effects of such thing happening is a fit of shivering and he hurriedly tucked himself in his furry clothes.

At the age of 29, he still couldn't get rid of his vulnerability to the slightest drop of temperature.

Even though he could use his "Skin-suit" to ward off the cold or heat Ming Lin still didn't do it, it did cost "Nova-fuel" after all.

The skin-suit is one of the most commonly used inventions of humanity's, be it space traveling or nova-fuel collecting it truly enabled humans to step beyond the restrictions of their mortal bodies.

The worst suits available in the market were capable of withstanding one ton of pressure per single cell, they consume one drop of liquid nova-fuel per hour.

The one Ming Lin have? Consume 100 drops of Nova-fuel simply because it doesn't only enable him to withstand the pressure of one nuclear bomb per single cell.

It also allows him to heighten his five senses to something way beyond human capabilities, it reaches the almost stand still time of focus.

His concentration becomes hypersensitive and time is stretched taut that it almost feels like time just stopped for the suit user.

The other unbelievable option of his suit is it's ability to accelerate to a speed barely lower than the speed of Light.

Of course there's other options to avoid this slight trouble of Ming Lin's weakness to cold weather, yet his pride prevented him from using any of them.

He dreamed of the day he receives his cell alteration operation, that was the thing Ming Lin really wished for.

People who replicates their mortal cells with "Genesis" cells gains the ability to fly without the need for suits, their new cells are capable of functioning normally like their original cells, but, they're capable of resisting pressure, heat, cold, lack of air and nutrition to frightening degrees.

However, despite being fully capable of undergoing the operation any time he wished, Ming Lin still didn't do it!.

"My universe is upgrading each second on all fronts, right now i'm only 29. Anyone can undergo the Genesis operation from the age of 21 to 40, in these long 11 years to come, who knows how much we'll advance on the endless ladder of evolution and technology. If I made that choice now impulsively, after 11 years I might die from regret for taking a decision too soon. I'll just wait until I reach the limit of 40 years then do it."

That was the answer Ming Lin gave to the host during one of the shows, he was asked why didn't he undergo the Genesis operation yet?.

Frustration filled his chest as he shivered under his clothes, taking a long cold breath to quench it Ming Lin looked up at the large sign at the top of his laboratory building.

Sun-Moon Lab.

That's the name of his own research facility, Ming Lin choose the name himself after reaching the age of 10.

His story started long before reaching that age, as he wasn't originally born on planet earth.

Ming Lin was born on a human colony eastern of the universe, ever since he came to begin to understand his existence.

The young boy knew he wasn't like everybody else, his brothers and sisters weren't the same as him.

His mother was different as well.

The way he looked at the world differed on cognitive level to those around him.

Fortunately, he found his relief in the sounds communicating with him in his head, young boy Lin opened his mind and started accepting information even in his sleep.

Unlike others, Ming Lin didn't get overloaded with information or hit knowledge walls or stumble on his lack of processing capabilities.

By the time he reached 3 years old, Ming Lin was aware of who he is, and who kept sending him all that information.

It was called "Knowledge Ministry" the largest association of this universe that humanity conquered thoroughly.

Their aim was? to uplift the whole humanity and save it from a horrible catastrophic event coming towards this unfortunate universe, their transmission of free knowledge was their way of recruiting talents and developing further.

The boy Lin just spent his time in his solitude as much as possible to accumulate knowledge and process it, the fact that his divorced mother was extremely busy with his 4 older siblings helped a lot in giving him space to learn.

All until he reached the age of 4, at that time Ming Lin had just underwent a mental test given by the transmission from the knowledge ministry, unawarely it turned out that the young him had just passed the official test for becoming a human "Saint".

If it was anybody else then it would've been something, but, for young Lin.

It was "Something Great".

Simply because he was only four years old!.

The youngest record for attaining sainthood was 12 years of age, why?.

Because humanity in the future imploded in the universe and their numbers did in all honesty exceed hundreds of quadrillions, and knowledge wasn't something static at all.

Each second humanity made breakthroughs in all subjects of knowledge! To become a saint as a human then you need to choose a certain subject, study it, comprehend it, then imprint it in your brain through the knowledge transmission.

To learn all knowledge related to a certain subject from A which is the beginning of humanity until Z which is right now at the age of 4, was beyond the word genius.

Media surrounded their home, artificial bodies of the minister of knowledge ministry, chairman, vice-chairman, 9 councilors visited and smiled broadly with excitement overflowing from their eyes.

Business tycoons, superstars, other saints and great saints.

The whole universe was placing the family of a mother and 5 children under the spotlight, all because of Ming Lin.

After the mother discovered her son's achievement she knew, this odd kid of hers won't be staying with her anymore.

Her earlier neglect caused it, she knew.

Selfishly she refused to hand her youngest son and took full liberty of her right to keep her minor boy in her company for one week before handing him over to the knowledge ministry's hands, after her son wrecked the world record of attaining sainthood he was no longer her son!.

But humanity's "Hope" for salvation.

That week Ming Lin almost never left his crying mother's embrace, saying sorry over and over to the young boy Lin who didn't feel wronged by his mother ever before.

Finally the week was over and Lin's mother had to hand him to the people of the ministry.

As Ming Lin stood next to his mother at the door of their two rooms tiny apartment, the artificial body of the most knowledgeable person in the universe and the most influential as well, went down on one knee in front of him and smiled ingratiatingly.

"Do you know who I am?"

The white haired elder with medium sized beard asked as he squinted his eyes slightly, the minister was experiencing the happiest moment of his life as he asked Ming Lin that.

Of course Ming Lin knew him, however, the young him was still experiencing some feelings of unwillingness to leave his mother's side.

She kept hugging him and crying for a whole week after all.

Nodding once was all he did to answer the elderly minister and one of the only three "Sages" alive, and the only "Great Sage" in 6 generations of ministers.

"Hehe.... Holding a grudge already! Still, I don't mind as long as you help steer us clear from the oncoming storm. Lady Ming, be absolutely sure that the comfort and support your son will receive from my ministry will be the best possible treatment."

The elderly minister ruffled Ming Lin's hair with a kind smile that didn't mind the tantrum small Lin was throwing at him, then raising the ashamed kid for having his secret found out by the minister from the armpits, the minister bowed slightly for Ming Lin's mother gratefully and assured her of her son's accommodations in the ministry.

The mother hid her face in her arms and bursted out crying, sighing, the minister patted her shoulder once then turned to leave with Lin carried at his artificial chest.

That was the last meeting between Ming Lin and his 5 family members in person, 25 years later he is millions of light years away from his mother and siblings.

The only connection between them is when he calls them or occasionally when he uses his artificial body to pay his mother a visit.

The ministry was very careful in transporting small Ming Lin from his colony in the east to home planet earth, the minister and the other 11 members from the ministry paying Ming Lin a visit using artificial bodies.

They used their own advanced artificial bodies to fuse and create a sturdy capsule that carried small Lin home to the origin of humanity.

During the 4 years of his transportation the dozen of elderlies didn't stop interacting with the kid, whenever they were free they taught him personally and Ming Lin never disappointed them once.

Like a bottomless pit he absorbed all kinds of knowledge, then he came to know the truth of the situation his universe is going through.

The start was quite sometime ago, long before humanity broke through the invisible barrier of true space traveling and cultivated other planets and astrals with different colonies.

At planet earth there was this professor of quantum physics, a very diligent and bright man who never stopped loving to experiment and fantasize of the wonder of time.

Finally he published a theory of the probability of actually peeking at the true past through a certain way, of course he was laughed at by the realistic gallery and that was that.

Until a quick-witted young wealthy businessman heard of the laughable event.

That man met the professor and after chatting non-stop for the whole night, the businessman was dead set on seeing this invention thoroughly to the end.

Investing all his wealth on the strange invention he ended up losing all his money, his wife died choking on her own grief, his only daughter growing up to ignore her foolish father.

For 50 years the businessman waited for the news of the success of creating his funded invention.

Many times he regretted taking such risky venture, after his wife passed away and his daughter grew up and left him, the businessman never stopped blaming himself every second for taking the wrong decisions in his youth.

At his deathbed his daughter whom he didn't see in person in 25 years, barged into the room and threw herself into his chest and cried as she held into a round disk of metal in her hand.

Turned out the invention was finally successful, and the first creation and the sole right was given long ago for his only daughter.

The same daughter who refused to meet him after leaving the house, same daughter who denied him the joy of meeting his grandchildren.

Just like how he denied her the lifestyle she should've grew up on, just like how he denied her the joy of growing up with her mother embracing her to sleep.

"You're insane, that money didn't belong to us. Our daughter! Didn't you think of our daughter's when you gave all that money away?"

That was the last line her dear mother said to her father in the only argument she witnessed between her parents, next second her mother clasped her forehead after screaming these words in the face of her husband's.

Three days later 4 years old daughter attended her mother's funeral, and her hate for her father never stopped until she received that metal disk.

That little thing projected for the angry daughter the life of both her mother and father, including their thoughts and feelings.

Coming to know about the endless moments of regret her father experienced, the sheer dedication he gave to create wealth equaling almost 20 times what the richest family in earth had that time.

Still, he didn't take a single penny for himself from it.

Leaving it all for his daughter to enjoy, sadly, the girl had changed her name and filed a restraining order on her unworthy father in her rage.

All he could do was wait for death as he burned with the cruel fires of regret, while hoping after his death his beloved daughter will come to accept her inheritance after calming down.

"Father, i've wronged you my whole life."

Breathing his last the businessman died with a smile on his face as he heard his daughter's tearful apology as she rested on his chest.

That invention, was humanity's first true breakthrough in advanced technology.

"Sigh, if only my human race wasn't that dark and corrupt at that time."

Ming Lin shook his head to clear his thoughts of his human history, then walked towards his assistant and vice manager waiting for him at the gates of his Sun-Moon Lab.

Sarah, the big chested Loli waited for him with a cheerful smile on her face.

These wide green eyes and long eyelashes were Ming Lin's secret to relaxing his weary mind that never stops thinking, all the time.

Sarah was someone with great achievement herself, even though she looks twenty something her true age is over 40.

Because she underwent her Genesis operation at the age of 23, her altered cells won't age like normal human cells.

However, her best achievements were her attaining sainthood at the age of 13 and right now she's only two people away from becoming a "Sage" and joining the ranks of the true titans of humanity.

Knowledge imprinting technique, the thing that was solely exclusive to knowledge ministry didn't unfairly separate humanity into classes of lower and higher, it gave all humans the same chance to raise in both rank and status.

Knowledge was available to all equally, those who are capable of learning more receives more in return.

Money kinda lost all it's worth and gradually ethereal knowledge and information exchange became the true goals for success, if Sarah experienced a few moments of clarity and her rate of processing information heightened.

Then she can bypass the two other seniors ahead of her and claim the Sage title at once, it all came down to how well you imprint knowledge in your brain that's all.

Only problem was that, Saint and Great Saint ranks required the accumulation of knowledge on one and three subjects respectively, to jump from Great Saint to Sage? Not only do you need to accumulate knowledge on 5 complete subjects of knowledge, but also, you need the perfect fusion of two different topics then an invention of your own making to help humanity.

"Good morning Lin, did you sleep well?"

Sarah's eyes glittered with deep hidden love for the tall thin Lin who hunched his back forward and tightened his clothes to prevent cold from invading in, she asked as she did her best not to tease this crush of hers and direct superior.

"It was alright, it's just the weather is a bit chilly. How did your trials on the ionized component go?"

Ming Lin unwillingly tore his eyes from Sarah's beautiful face and asked about work.

"You'll find all the data on your space at the office, since nothing needed your immediate attention I took the liberty of organizing them according to your preference and let you get some sleep in peace. Go on, i'll bring you your coffee."

Like a good wife knowing her husband's habits, Sarah turned to leave and her dancing hips stole the breathing of dear virgin Lin.

Again tearing his eyes away from the thing he almost wanted to stretch his arms and grab at least once, Ming Lin walked towards his office to analyze the data of the fusion trials.

As he checked the data Ming Lin's mind wandered in one of it's journeys.

Thinking about the daughter who took all the money her late father earned for her, and honored him by buying a whole country then building the best research facilities for scientists and researchers.

The cornerstone for knowledge ministry was her doing, afterwards the invention called "Oracle" was distributed to humanity by the daughter.

Then humanity did what it did best.

All kinds of opinions about the Oracle were made, some agreed on the right for themselves and the next generations to know the truth of their earlier predecessors.

Some frowned upon the creation of Oracle and saw it as a kind of invasion for the privacy of others.

Religion followers saw it as a blasphemy to the creator and demanded all knowledge of Oracle to be destroyed, or else....

Like the humans they were, they still couldn't truly appreciate the difference between each other.

Once the smart businessman's daughter discovered the possibility of harm reaching her dear father's legacy, she took the first wave of profits from distributing the Oracle device and created something.

That thing she created was the only thing that helped in keeping what remained of the so-called sanity of the human mind in the later generations.

The businessman's daughter created a very vast, very deep, very sturdy, and very concealed shelter underneath her land and made sure to facilitate it with the best technologies and tools.

Provided it with enough provisions and resources for research purposes, she recruited the best of the best from all around the world to join them in hiding from the world that was going absolutely mad.

Finally she managed to gather over 20 thousand people, all of them were experts in what they do.

Luckily she managed to finish her secret mission before the thing that almost wiped out humanity from the surface of planet earth, as her shelter entrance was sealed shut.

The Great War happened.

Humans used to solve their problems before with their fists like barbarians, the people living at the businessman's daughter era were more sophisticated.

There was many other tools and ways to do it, and humanity didn't stop at anything.

Clearly their problem wasn't a mere metal disk that projected moments of the past, not at all, it's simple.

Such device will completely expose each and every single wrongdoings they did!.

Huh, something like that exists? Let's go, this devious creation needs to be eliminated from history.

First it was like that.

Then the chaos that followed gave rise to opportunitists who took advantage of that to either get revenge or to claim more for themselves, one thing followed another and the first shot declared the start of the free for all signal.

From a pistol to machine gun, from small squads to full armies.

Tanks, cannons, missiles, aircrafts, nuclear weapons, biological weapons.....

The war started with planet earth carrying on it's surface 7 continents and more than 45 billion humans.

After 200 years of endless wars and murder planet earth only had 4 continents remaining, 90 thousand completely ignorant barbarians who regressed to the use of cold weapons!.

It turned out that these lunatics used all kinds of advanced weapons until there was none left, during their wars they demolished all kinds of knowledge, facilities, signs of civilisation, and what's left of their humanity.

All they had was the fist, and like barbarians they didn't hesitate to use it to take what they wanted.

The 20 thousand people hiding underneath the ground like rats didn't suffer any unnatural death for two centuries, and their numbers reached double the barbarians living on the surface.

Then the next true breakthrough happened at that time, the descendants of the businessman and the others with their sanity intact developed a genetic reactor.

The first ever minister of the knowledge ministry was the first human to undergo the Genesis operation and alter his body.

Father and daughter were the first and second reason for Ming Lin's existence, otherwise, if humans did manage to live until this day.

They would've been no more than what they've been before the Great War.

The businessman's successful business venture caused the loss of his wife's life as she died in her grief, the separation and reunion with his only daughter, years of suffering from regret.

It also nearly caused the extinction of human race.

His daughter's wise decisions caused the protection of the essence of knowledge, the preservation of the top league of experts from the Great War.

Which led to the initial forming of the knowledge ministry foundations, and another crucial discovery in genetic science.

The second sophisticated breakthrough affected humanity more than the Oracle discovery, at least on the immediate results.

"Here's your coffee Lin, so, what do you think we should do next? I think this Genesis reactor is the most suitable for experimenting with the fusion between the two. The other magnetic reactor caused chaotic flow of data and nobody could analyze a set pattern for the fusion actually happening, here let me show you."

Sarah entered the office carrying a simple cup of coffee and placed it in front of Ming Lin, her entrance stopped his mind from digging up the wickedness of his ancestors.

As Sarah talked about work, poor Ming Lin couldn't stop his eyes from stealing glances at her chest and bottom as she stood next to him and started gesturing with her hand, the hologram at the desk kept changing and new data appeared with every action Sarah made.

"Even though it cost more energy than the magnetic reactor, it indeed looks to be more suitable. Make preliminary preparations and gather the team for a brain storming discussion, i'll process this data until you finish."

Finally Ming Lin knew that he wouldn't be able to hold back his virgin impulsiveness any longer if Sarah kept standing next to him full of openings, gulping once he created a reason for her to leave his side with sadness filling his heart.

'What if? She gets offended by what I do and reflexively swat my weak body like swatting an annoying fly' Ming Lin thought such thought to kill his fantasies about having this Loli one day as his partner and woman.

A hint of disappointment surfaced on Sarah's eyes then she smiled slightly at the awkwardly standing next to her Ming Lin, Sarah did her best not to hug his cute face and bury it in her chest and retreated from Lin's office.

'When I get my Sage title for sure' Sarah had already decided to give herself to Ming Lin's once she breaks through her Great Saint rank and become a Sage.

Even she felt it inappropriate to wed the Hope of humanity and Great Sage as a mere Great Saint, especially while being more than a dozen years older than the cute tall Lin.

What she couldn't achieve in over 40 years he did once he was 10, if she didn't care about her face then she needed to care about his.

At that time she was watching the news of the boy who headlined every single screen, the shaking reached the foundations of humanities understanding.

Those who were sceptical about his title of humanity's Hope before when Lin attained the Saint title, laughed uproariously as tears of joy fell down their cheeks when they knew of his Sage title at a mere decade of age.

Skipping lightly in her steps and humming some cheerful tune Sarah went to finish her lovely, smart, caring, cutie, tall, careful, timid..... Etc Ming Lin's request with a smile on her face.

Ming Lin finished his thorough inspection of the data and his head returned to dig up the past of humanity, he was starting to feel worry spreading in his chest.

The kind of worry that was visible to the the recipient, yet the reason for it's surfacing remained hidden.

He remembered the scenes he saw through the Oracle, scenes of the first Genesis operated minister opening the sealed shut shelter door that remained sealed for two centuries.

Saw the man's shock and feelings of loss as he flew from place to place on the surface of earth, ruin, devastation, destruction, death, diseases, witchcraft, darkness, injustice, insanity..... The few humans left were cavemen barbarians scattered on what was left of earth.

First minister really was about to smite those foul creatures whom he felt disgusted in being from the same species as them, at the last second he gritted his teeth and returned to his great grandmother.

The direct daughter of the businessman's daughter.

After showing her the sights he just witnessed outside the shelter, she convinced him to refrain from doing it.

Handing him a handwritten letter from his great great grandmother, the same woman who wisely ordered the creation of this safe haven.

In the letter was her heartfelt apologies to the next generations, this shelter was supposed to last them for a thousand years before they think of resurfacing, the businessman's daughter knew that madness was about to burn all those who walked the surface of earth.

Her only hope was that when her offspring gets out the world's chaos would've been long passed.

First minister then understood why the shelter door was extremely hard to open even for supernaturally strong him, after calming for a few days he went out again and collected the remnants of humanity from all over the earth.

Less than a hundred thousand humans, almost two thirds were born with dysfunctions, trouble talking, self awareness.

Patiently teaching them to live properly like humans should took 300 hundred years of constant supervision to eliminate all kinds of barbaric habits, a dozen Genesis superhumans were responsible for the job.

Mental and psychological evaluations monthly, for everyone!.

All until the first surface born human managed to pass all kinds of mental and psychological evaluations, that man met the minister of that time and was allowed to learn of the truth.

After 300 years those who lived in the surface of earth always felt that these flying people were just intolerable bullies, when they prevented them from whoring or beating up those who made fun of them.

When that man knew that his ancestors were the reason the earth they live in was full of signs of ancient civilisations that got destroyed and not these strong flying humans, he was deeply ashamed of himself.

These flying humans were treating them just exactly how a mother treated her mischievous kids, constantly showering them with love and care until they repent.

Giving a simple kowtow full of gratitude the first person the pass the mental and psychological evaluations left after asking for all the information related to the wickedness and evil of humanity.

And the third sophisticated breakthrough was accomplished by that man's hands, he discovered the reason for humanities corruption and the seed of evil within.

He called it "Bipolar-Consciousness" in other words, the good and evil within.

After he witnessed the first cause and act of murder in humanity, that man drew a perfect mental chart to help keep humans from being completely led by their evil tendencies.

Afterwards it became much easier for humans to keep their desires in check, solve their differences through the different councils in the knowledge ministry.

Now that history can be seen through the Oracle, justice will always be served through the justice council.

Any kind of dispute can be handled by the ethics council.

Peace and prosperity finally started falling on the tired and weary humanity.

As all parties breathed out in relief for the happy ending, the fourth and last sophisticated breakthrough was achieved.

The other side of the coin, Oracle always felt like it was missing something crucial to quantum physics enthusiasts.

Since the past was possible to see, why not the future as well?.

However, their invention caused the widest degrees of panicking and despair to spread amongst humans.

After all we did to coexist! Were still all going to die?.

Peeking at the future only shows a single scene.

The universe that humanity proudly managed to invade every single corner of, suddenly out of nowhere.

Gets hit from all sides by clusters of flaming white insanely huge astroids the size of ten times the Sun's, first wave of aftershocks wipes third of the universe and turns it into grey sand particles.

As the shockwaves push these grey particles towards the rest of the universe it causes a disintegration effect wherever it goes, only home planet earth experiences the weakest effect.

Still that weak effect once it touches the moon it explodes into smithereens, the sun encapsulates the surface of earth on it's fire as it goes out with a bang.

The coolest place on earth would experience heat over 50 thousand degrees, then after a while of scorching the earth until it's mass shrinks to the size of a matchbox the grey sand arrives and the end of "End Day" comes to a close.

After experimenting on his free time for 5 years Ming Lin managed to replicate a single sand particle of these grey waves, he discovered that the total mass and weight of this dust like grey sand equaled two or three mountains of metal.

He called that phenomenon of grey waves "Disintegration Shockwaves" and since he started being the leader of Sun-Moon Lab, Ming Lin's job was to try and discover or create a material capable of withstanding both incredible heat and the insane pressure from the disintegration shockwaves.

"Lin, we're all ready for the meeting of brain storming."

Sarah's cheerful voice woke Ming Lin from his daydreams and he started to speak with his subordinates about their project, second thing he enjoyed in his Lab other than staring at Sarah's beautiful body was these meetings.

He himself got many different ideas during these meetings, surprisingly this time the one who got a sudden lightbulb was Hector the hairy metallurgy expert.

"Alright, everyone should run their data and double check nothing is wrong with Hector's idea, you all know how costly it is to work this reactor. I don't want anything happening to it and the elders nagging me for it later, after all the only other one we have is in the headquarters. If you're okay with working under the constant frown of seniors then I have nothing to say."

After doing his mental calculations at a hurry to check the validity of Hector's suggestion Ming Lin severed the connection and went to take a calming swim in the pool.

As he swam in the refreshing waters he couldn't get rid of the sudden unease and worry that started to convulse and clinch on his chest.

"Just what is it?"

Ming Lin couldn't focus on his swimming and checked the vitality charts of all his family members including himself as he got out of the water.

"Lin, you brat enjoying yourself while I get ordered around by Miss Sarah. Come, the sound of the fusion is erratic and the reactor is unresponsive."

Hairy Hector arrived and spoke as flexed his muscles childishly at scrawny Ming Lin to tease him for not having undergone his Genesis operation yet.

"Gorillas should stick with the zoo, offending your superiors was never a smart move. After all..... Deducting certain bonuses here and there is, hehehe."

Ming Lin didn't shy away from making fun of the expert metallurgist who wasn't the most brilliant of his team.

Hector acted like he did nothing and ran ahead for the reactor while sweating bullets from his forehead.

Ming Lin followed Hector to the reactor to check the data and see what is causing the discrepancy in the fusion.

Once he stood in front of the holographic monitors and started processing the data to find the fault, the feeling of unrest in Ming Lin's chest suddenly turned into a stabbing pain.

His right hand clutched his aching chest and his Skin-suit was activated, pivoting on his right foot and twisting his muscles to spin like a top Ming Lin's left hand pushed Hector on the chest and sent him flying out from the reactor room.

"Y....you fucking bully, don't think that because you're my superior i'll let you hit me........"

Hector's words got cut by the falling reinforced mithril titanium heavy walls, such walls only falls in the case of code black danger!.

As he stood there looking at his left hand, the same hand he just used to save gorilla Hector.

He didn't even like the guy, yet he didn't hesitate to save the idiot instead of saving himself.

Sighing within Ming Lin looked at the reactor at work through the reinforced glass that won't be able to save him, only after he felt the stabbing pain did the results of the data his brain processed hit him.

The reactor was unstable and will explode!.

Both clusters of materials were acting like the same pole of magnet and instead of fusing they rammed the insides of the reactor like maddened beasts in a cage.

"Kumar, give me status of the reactor's data."

Ming Lin started running for the manual control room as he asked.

"Huh, boss what're you doing inside the reactor room? This is very dangerous!"

The man looked at the image and his eyes widened in terror.

"Hurry up, we have no time to waste."

Shouting at his subordinate Ming Lin entered the manual control room and started getting busy, his only aim was to save the reactor from exploding such thing if happened would mean the delay of his human race plans to survive the events of "End Day".

"C... currently the reactor is only working at 56% which is safe, only the matter inside is still in duality form. To reach the intended ionized component certain pressure will be needed, both matters are preventing the reactor from influencing them with chaotic energy resulting from the constant clashing with the inside walls."

Kumar kept gesturing with his hand to turn the hologram design of the reactor and reported to Ming Lin the cause and effect.

"Sarah, how much time do we have?"

Ming Lin exited the manual control room after finishing tweaking the heavy levers and asked as he went for the only door through the reinforced glass.

"Sniff... T... there's only 12 minutes."

Sarah was watching in disbelief as she felt her world end and despair held her by the throat, sniffling and crying revers she said as she covered her face in her arms and wished if earlier today her courage was a bit more.

"Kumar, full throttle for the reactor. I'll add pressure at the same time from the emergency ventilating hatch, let's hope this will work on stabilizing the component."

Ming Lin opened the reinforced glass door and entered the premises of the reactor and flew towards the top, he ordered the man to work in tandem with him on preventing the loss of this precious Genesis reactor.

"No, boss that is completely stupid thing to do. Even with your top quality Skin-suit you'll never be able to handle the pressure, if that was on top of you being Genesis awakened then it might be possible. Please go back to the manual room."

Kumar panicked as he watched Ming Lin fearlessly stand on top of the hatch and get prepared to open it once Kumar boost the reactor with maximum energy, Sarah fell on her chair as her face paled in fear for the man she always loved in secret.

"Stop wasting time, i'm ordering you as your superior to work the reactor at maximum speed."

Ming Lin shouted angrily as he followed the trickling time with a worried gaze.

Closing his eyes and gesturing with his hand Kumar sat on his chair with the heaviest feelings of loss overcoming him, he felt the worst for being the person to cause humanity to lose such unsurpassable genius.

He just did it with his own hands, with a single gesture the reactor started shaking like a rattle drum in the hands of a baby, and Ming Lin unhesitatingly opened the hatch and flames scorched his body covered by the suit.

"GRAAAAAAH......"

"Araaah......"

"Ughhhh......"

"Grunt......."

"Huff......"

"Gasp....."

Kumar and Sarah sat there like zombies watching Ming Lin use the full power of his top grade suit to send constant stream of energy beams inside the hatch, the flames scorching his suit changed it's shape and color on top of him.

He was being burnt alive, experiencing the worst possible pain in this universe.

Kumar felt his hand that gestured for that to happen shiver non-stop, Sarah felt her heart grow cold as she wished if she was next to her lover hugging him tightly, to share a portion of his pain.

"F... finally it's over.... Huff."

After ten minutes the reactor stopped and the scorched black with a suit missing the lower body, right shoulder, right arm and bleeding from what remained of his body Ming Lin uttered weakly as his floating body fell on top of the reactor.

Ten minutes of hell forced him to shrink the suit to cover his head heart and internal organs to be able to keep sending energy to force the components to ionize, if he hadn't done so then his life would've ended and the reactor still exploded in the end.

Finally the dazed Sarah woke up from her despair and flew for the reactor room while tears scattered in her path.

The rest of the team of researchers did their best to remove the security measures of the code black danger and reach their boss.

'Hurry, I can't hold on any longer. This chip will self destruct if I didn't hand it willingly' Ming Lin thought as he felt darkness cover his opened eyes, while his soul felt like it was ruthlessly skinned from his miserable looking body.

"Lin, answer me Lin."

As Lin felt regret for not being able to hand his accumulated knowledge from living for almost 30 years, he heard a voice calling him from the complete darkness.

Without hesitating he opened his mouth to reveal the small chip stuck to his molar to Sarah hoping she was really next to him and he's not hallucinating before he breathed his last.

"Dummy..... Such a foolish dummy, why didn't you ever get the courage to say it. I loved you too and waited and waited for you to say it, don't you dare die on me you moron."

Hearing these last words made Ming Lin nod faintly once with what remained of his power.

Then his vital charts shared with almost the whole universe announced his death, breaking news popped up everywhere with footage of his act.

"Great Sage, Ming Lin is dead!"

Hector who got saved by Ming Lin stood at the side watching his miserable state in the arms of Sarah, half a corpse fully charred black and dropping what remained of his unburnt blood.

Kumar who obeyed the orders hung his head low with his throat feeling stuffy with a sore lump sniffling as mountains of burden fell on his shoulders.

Sarah quietly carried Ming Lin out and the whole workers in Sun-Moon research facility followed her in silence.

However, Ming Lin was no longer part of this world.
