1 Prologue (1/2)

The year 2212

In the vast expanse of space, outside a tiny, blue planet.

At a specific spot, two people stood huddled around a small, transparent white ball that shone like the sun.

Strangely, these two did not seem to be blinded by this extreme brightness. Their faces only contained boundless love, while they fondly took in the last sight of their son.

Their faces were the only things that were clearly visible. Their bodies were blurry, almost as if they were just apparitions that had appeared there to witness this event.

After a long period of time passed, the two moved closed to each other and hugged.

They were a man and a woman, and even while they hugged, they couldn't resist looking at the white ball again and again.

The man's signature trait was his broad shoulders which seemed to envelop the woman while she began to cry, and the woman's were her extraordinary, breathtaking features that made her look like a fairy.

Finally, a gruff voice sounded from the void.

”It's time.”

Nodding, the couple shot one last glance at their child.

Stretching out their hands, they caressed the left and right cheek of the peacefully sleeping boy garbed in white clothes while still holding each other.

He had brown hair, and as he felt the love of his parents, an exceptionally cute smile appeared on his face that made the couple sigh as they, too, smiled unwittingly.

”He'll save them all,” cooed the woman in a soft voice. Her tears had stopped, but the extremely melancholy expression on her face showed that she was even sadder than before.

”Or he'll choose to leave them to their fate. Let him decide. I just…want him to be happy. Whatever he does.”

As the man said this after letting out a deep breath, the woman nodded, wishing that this moment would stretch on forever.

Sadly, the gruff voice appeared again, repeating the same message as before.

However, this time, there was more of an urgent tone to it, so the two finally closed their eyes and turned away after removing their hands.

Boom!
