Planet Lubo.
Little mortal took out his notebook and checked his new tasks.
He was already done with the 3rd main quest from the previous batch, with the 'guardian announcement' being done weirdly.
So he wrote new ones.
[ Last quest lines before leaving :

"Alright, little crystal, remember to play the mainland's version of collecting my birthday gifts on the mainland.
But the extended version here.
And don't play the 'my precious' clip here, alright?"
The Crystal vibrated.
Little mortal then looked at the backpack,
"So there are still another 600 or so birth treasures left in Aladdin's treasury?"
The backpack trembled.
"All of them either belong to other newborns that he caught before coming here, or some of them belong to newborns from our side,
Which weren't 'registered' and now they are being kept somewhere.
Or worse, they are already dead....
When I go back to my first hometown, I will try to find them, and the ones here in this 'zone' can be find after I become Mainland Guardian and everything is part of the guardian territory."
The place turned silent for a moment, but the next second, all of the birth treasures started vibrating.
Little mortal looked at them in confusion and then realized why they were surprised,
"Oh, I forgot to tell you.
It turned out that my first 'spawn location' was the Hunters mainland.
They smuggled me here with Lubo to take over this place.
But guess what?
Back then, I was just a tiny little boy.
While smart, I was too weak to do anything.
And we all know that Lubo is an idiot.
So, a tiny little smart boy + an idiot = complete failure of the Hunter's plan.
That shows how foolish the hunters are to send a smart but frail little boy and a stupid evil treasure as a team here to take over the whole mainland for them...
Can you even believe such stupidity?"
Even Little Mortal was speechless at the end.
Let alone the birth treasures who were faced with the sudden truth of their boss being from the enemy camp!
Lubo, the idiot, said,
"So you already know...?
What now? How about we take over?
Just let me do my thing, and we'll take over not only this zone, but even the Hunters mainland.
Heck, we will take over every single mainland out there!
With the power of the two of us-"
Little mortal interrupted Lubo before it got too excited and scare his other birthday gifts,
"Shut up, you stupid Lubo!
I have already listened to your nonsense for a couple of billion years.
I don't want to hear it anymore!
And I'm not some barbaric and savage creature like you.
I am Mortal, the guardian, and I act like one!"
Then he snorted and looked at the glasses of knowledge.
"Little glasses, and you, Lubo, I added some more black holes to ours,
So, I want you to make this place so big that when I'm back from the Hunters mainland, I see a couple of suns with different colors revolving around it!
Alright?"
Lubo didn't answer; it didn't have any choice but to do as he said, but the glasses of knowledge vibrated,
"Alright, it's time for me to capture myself."
.....
Mainland.
Entertainment Goddess's main stream was interrupted once again.
"Yo, did you miss me weaklings?"
In a moment, everyone, especially the outsiders, joined the stream.
Entertainment Goddess tried to track down his stream and the Crystal he was using,
But she couldn't...
Or to be exact, a certain independent crystal of hers didn't let her.
She could only grit her teeth in frustration.
Little mortal smiled cheekily,
"Okay, whose turn is it today?
Should we vote for it, or should I just pick someone randomly?"
Everyone in the stream stopped typing.
They all guessed what he was going to do!
He wants to pay with his nonexistent law to expose another higher being, doesn't he?
Little mortal suddenly gasped,
"Wait a minute, when did you parasites put a bounty on my head?"
They indeed did.
There was one before, but a new one, requested by the God of Judgment, has been added now.
'God of Prophecy' went to him and asked for a new bounty.
The bounty for this one was zero at the start, and it could go up by donating law.
But the severity of the situation was so urgent that it went up to 10 billion laws in no time.
Everyone collectively wanted him to be gone.
Entertainment Goddess was the one responsible for keeping the donated law and then sending it to whoever captured him.
And if everyone failed, she could easily send their law back to them through their crystals.
Her child crystal was indeed the most user-friendly tool for all of the higher beings out there.
Anyway, Little Mortal was now at a loss,
"Are you kidding me?
How many zeros even is that?"
While looking at the number of his bounty with lots of zeros, he started counting them with his small fingers.
Then he showed his fingers to the 'camera',
"Look, it has as many zeros as my fingers!"
Then he gasped.
The next second, his eyes turned cold,
"So, all of you are trying to pick a fight with me?
Then there is no need for a vote!
I will expose you all together!"
Then he shouted,
"World law!
Bro!
Take everything!
Take all of my laws and expose everyone's secret!"
The madness in his eyes was evident to everyone at this moment!
Some turned pale, while others started begging in the chat for him to stop.
And a certain group of outsiders who came up with the plan to use mortal and see the guardian god's secret now regretted it!
They didn't know how to stop the aftermath of the mess that their plan had created.
They started sending messages to God of Prophecy and the rest, while all of them rushed to the mainland.
The Hunters Mainland couldn't be exposed!
The sky turned dark again.
World law actually was going to respond!
The 10% smaller white canary looked at the sky with an open beak.
"Wasn't this kid with that guy?
Why is he out making trouble again?
Wouldn't that expose everything?"
Entertainment Goddess wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.
She didn't know whether to be excited or worried.
After she advanced to level 7, she could now do what her crystal could.
If she could feel the presence of another higher being, she could feel their emotions and absorb the same amount of emotions in the form of converted raw law.
And her crystal could do the same as before,
So the output was doubled.
And now, with this mess, the fear and stress in the whole mainland were amplified by a certain little boy.
*BOOOM*
The world law's voice sounded.
Here it comes.
Everyone with a forehead covered in sweat held their breath and looked at the sky.
[ Higher being Mortal, your request has been denied.]
*Phew*
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
But,
"Is that so?
Then I will do it one by one!
I have time!
I am mortal!
The strongest!
I never give up!
I never back down!
World law, bro, let's start with that stupid Fortune Teller!"
Oh no!
Now even the white canary was alerted!
"I, mortal, pay with all of my law, to expose Apo-"
But before he could finish his sentence.
A hand covered his mouth.
Whose hand was it?
If you ask any of the viewers,
They would answer the same.
"That is the hand of our savior, our savior angel!"
The hand picked up the little struggling boy.
No one knew who he or she was.
Only a certain group of outsiders caught a glimpse of a 'mask' and immediately recognized the other party.
Their hidden member finally took action!
The stream was still Live.
So, everyone saw another figure appear on the horizon the next moment.
Apollo, God of Prophecy, had arrived.
He nodded at the 'savior angel' and received the boy.
Not long after, God of Judgment arrived as well.
With his arrival,
The 10 billion bounty turned to 0.
It seems the one who captured the crazy toddler received the bounty.
Entertainment Goddess hurriedly checked it,
And found out that it was a completely new 'account'.
Even she, the server owner, didn't know who this child crystal belonged to.
She could only grit her teeth and glare at her crystal, the culprit.
On the screen, God of Judgment looked at the 'camera' and said,
"If everyone agrees, we can start the trial right here."
Everyone in the chat started typing 'yes'.
If this kid ran away again, they were done for.
He seems to learn from his mistakes every time.
They were sure that even their 'savior angel' couldn't catch him for a second time.
The court started,
"Let's make it short.
For his crime, he should go to Hell.
Any objection?"
Everyone in the chat typed 'Hell!'
Entertainment Goddess was going to object and take responsibility for him, but she found out she couldn't comment!
"What are you doing?"
She asked her crystal in anger.
< Don't interfere, master.
That's his request. >
"He knows what he is doing?"
< Yes.
Just leave him be, master. >
Entertainment Goddess gritted her teeth and suddenly stood up.
She didn't care anymore.
The deal with Mortal said she couldn't be harmed because of him, but as a level 7, who could harm her?
But she only flew up 1 meter before landing back on the ground.
With a stiff body, she slowly turned her head to the left.
A white canary, 10% smaller than normal ones, was on her left shoulder.
This bird was the one who pushed her and her ego down to the ground.
"Don't interfere in this matter, little Saraswati."
The white canary came here as fast as it could,
Because the only one who could mess things up for the hidden entity and would do that because of the little troublemaker was this girl.
It knew everything was under control because God of Prophecy suddenly joined the stream too.
The manager heaved a sigh of relief, knowing it had arrived on time to stop this level 7 girl who was going for the rescue.
...
God of Judgment was going to end the trial,
But God of Prophecy said,
"Objection.
If he goes to Hell, I'm sure he can hide there, too."
The crowd was speechless.
With the record this little boy had,
He indeed could hide there too, probably...
"So how about.. We expel him?"
God of Judgment paused for a moment.
The meaning of expelling was clear.
It was to throw him out where the mainland has no influence.
Outside of the Zone.
"Does everyone agree?"
Everyone in the chat typed 'yes'.
Indeed, if he is somewhere where there is no one around, it doesn't matter if he is invisible or not.
God of Judgment nodded and said,
"Apollo, you take care of the process."
And God of Prophecy nodded.
But when he was going to leave, he let go of the boy's mouth for a moment by 'accident'.
"You idiots!
If you expel me, you will regret it!
I have treasures!
I have many treasures hidden on the mainland!
If you expel, those treasures never see the light ag-"
God of Prophecy hurriedly covered his mouth and smiled apologetically as he left with the 'camera'.
The screen turned off.
The higher beings finally could take a breath.
But when they looked at Little Mortal's channel,
They saw two videos that were uploaded exactly before the start of his last Live stream.
One was 'my journey to gather my birthday gifts',
And the other one was 'my precious.'
But they needed to pay 3 billion law for the first one,
And 500 million law for the second one to unlock it for the public!
With him going to be expelled, no one cared about these two videos anymore.
Last time he sold a nonsense about a guardian...
Wait, guardian?
Only now did everyone remember that this little troublemaker had actually known about the guardian law a long time ago, even though everyone had forgotten about it...
....
Planet Lubo.
[ - Capture myself ✓]
Another quest was done.
"Alright, next.
Let's go and invite our guests.
Big guy, you take care of the contracts with Mr. Marco Polo and Dr. Quinn.
Little mirror, connect to the rest through karma with their former birth treasures.
We leave your master for last."
....
2 hours later.
The sky of Planet Lubo turned dark.
The confused Space Goddess appeared, got knocked out, disappeared inside the prison cage, reappeared, and then received a contract.
Her contract had one more condition.
She couldn't talk to anyone about what had just happened to her or mention anything about 'Guardian'.
She even received a warning from her lost birth treasure to be good and not throw her life away.
Now she knew the entity behind the scenes taking away her birth treasure was actually too dangerous and a lot stronger than her, that even her birth treasure was telling her to be obedient.
Little mortal looked at his quests.
[ Last quest lines before leaving :

"Okay, the rest of the quests are related to the 'expel' part."
He put his notebook away and shouted,
"Call over the 'gifts', we are leaving.
Little Cage, send out the fortune teller, the grave robber, the puppet guy, the soulless, and Aladdin out.
"Cube and puppet, it's on you guys to bring the 'Gifts' back after the puppet show!"
....
Mainland.
Outer space.
In the hidden space between a certain group of bubbles that belonged to outsiders, a group of higher beings was gathered.
On one side, God of Life and Death was in the lead,
And behind him, the rest of the puppets plus more than 50 newborns.
The same newborns who were taken away from the facility.
At this moment, they were looking around nervously while shivering.
They were suddenly taken away from their new home to 'act' in a non-dangerous scene as 'Gifts'.
But now this scene didn't seem safe at all, with all these scary creatures...
They just glanced at their 'Boss' and when they saw him still around, they felt at ease.
Before leaving, they even asked for guidance from the wise turtle,
And she said;
"If he is on the scene, and you are in his team, it's the rest of the 'actors' that should be worried, not you.
If he is not in the scene and you are not in his team, then he is invisible somewhere, and you might 'die' and your role will be over with your fake death."
So they trusted her judgment.
Right now in their teammate, Guardian Mortal, was in God of Prophecy's hand, pretending to be 'unconscious'.
Blood Lord laughed,
"What is this?
All of these newborns are back to level 6 already?"
God of Prophecy nodded,
"I thought if we are sending a gift back,
It's better to send them 'healthy'.
What do you think, seniors?"
The faces of the five outsiders turned gloomy.
"You want to send them back?"
God of Prophecy nodded,
"Seniors, do we need them anymore with guardian tokens in hand?
And that's my gift to 'Lord', I hope you don't have eyes on them."
The outsiders chuckled,
"What about the rest?
The ones he bought."
They pointed at the unconscious mortal.
Before God of Prophecy answers, God of Life and Death said,
"Thousand face took them for now."
The faces of the outsiders became even gloomier.
With that Imposter taking them away, there was no way for them to get any.
Blood Lord laughed,
"That's fine.
Send them as a 'gift'."
But his aura suddenly surged.
It was similar to what he did at the meeting, and he made all the level 6 puppets bleed.
But a Grim Reaper appeared out of nowhere and slashed with his scythe, cutting Blood Lord's aura apart and continuing on its path to cut him too!
Blood Lord shouted in anger,
"Have you gone crazy, Thanathel?"
And as he tried to defend himself, the impact sent him flying.
A diagonal deep cut appeared on his muscular chest, black smoke rising from the cut.
Blood Lord didn't even care about the wound and asked excitedly,
"You are back to level 7?"
God of Life and Death chuckled,
"You guys are too slow.
I already tried the 10 universe merge condition from this mainland.
As you can see, the zone allowed me to advance.
Now I'm thinking of trying something else too."
The crowd became even more excited,
"You want to merge 1000 universes?"
"Is it possible to become level 8 like this?"
"What about the Mainland manager?"
God of Life and Death shrugged,
"We don't know until we try.
However, it seems to me that this guardian token can allow us to change 'boat'.
We are currently on a normal mainland boat with the law of this zone applying to us.
At the same time, because of Guardian Law, we can ignore some rules."
The excited crowd started laughing,
"There are 10 of us here if we left Little Apollo out.
But only around 6000 universes.
So at most 5 of us can try it."
"What about the plan then?"
"Isn't it better to take over everything first?
That way we can 'welcome' our 'Lord'.
Stopping this mainland will be a lot easier this way."
"Don't be too happy.
Perhaps guardian law allows us to return to level 7 while the manager remains at level 7.
But level 8?
This zone's world law might ignore the guardian law in that case and help its manager level up."
"Let's just give it a try.
We only need to stop the mainland.
If that manager levels up, then the only thing we need to do is to sever the connection of every universe we already won in Guardian Challenge from the Mainland."
"Correct, even if it can run away for a while,
It will be out of fuel not long after, without any universe supporting it."
Seeing the light of 'greed' in their eyes,
It was evident that their plan of slowing down the mainland was going to have some changes.
Little mortal was speechless.
A certain Level 8 canary, which was eavesdropping,
"...?"
It wondered if it was a good thing or a bad thing?
It saw the one who suddenly showed his level 7 aura was a puppet too, and what he did motivated the rest to challenge other universes as fast as possible!
The white canary wondered if this was part of the plan as well.
If these guys who still thought the manager is sealed and stuck at level 7, merge with 1000 universes,
Will they level up to 8?
If yes,
Is 'it' going to level up to 9 using the same loophole?
Wouldn't that be good? They would do the work, and 'it' reaping the benefit.
In that case, they can dream about disconnecting the universes from the mainland.
After a while, they decided on a course of action.
"So, we should change the secret message we wanted to send back with this little brat, then."
"Yeah, we should just mention that things might take a while, but we can't lie either due to our 'contracts'."
Seeing them trying to find a way to betray their hometown indirectly, 'God of Life and Death' couldn't take it anymore,
"Let's say everything as it is; we don't need to lie.
It's all about time.
If we act quickly, we will gain a lot from this trip; if we don't, that's on us.
The opportunity is already in front of us,
Take it or leave it, it's up to us."
Seeing that the only level 7 in the group didn't want to collaborate, the rest could only reluctantly accept the arrangement.
Not long after,
When the secret message was ready,
Puppet Master waved his hand, and a small puppet jumped onto Little Mortal's shoulder and received the guardian token from him.
"I think it's better to give the token to 'Lord'.
That way there won't be any 'civil war' between us."
The rest smiled knowingly and nodded.
They would take it from him even if he didn't want to.
Until now, Little Mortal hasn't let them know about the real functions of the main guardian token.
Especially the 'teleport' and 'karma' functions that were locked for them.
If they find out about it on the hunter's side, that would be a mess.
They could just start teleporting to each other through karma and the teleport function.
And with 'guardian law' being so unreasonable,
Even that level 10 vulture might suddenly show up.
So he did what outsiders had done to him before, and used the Guardian God puppet to restrict their access to some information.
At the end,
God of Life and Death waved his hand,
And black ropes wrapped around all of the newborns.
He then started taking care of Little Mortal.
At the end, he was like a mummy.
Wrapped in black rope from head to toe.
Then he waved his hand again,
And golden rings fell on the newborns' heads.
Each received one,
Except for Little Mortal, who received 10 rings from top to bottom.
These rings could seal their power, and the black rope could seal their movement.
Then he waved his hand again,
And made a cage from both the black rope and golden rings.
The crowd was speechless...
What kind of package was that?
But it was better to be safe than sorry with that slippery mortal in the group.
In the end, he placed an iron cube that contained their message inside the cage with the newborns.
"Alright, it should be fine."
Abyssion, the Eternal Void, which was the owner of the empty and completely dark universe,
Waved something that you couldn't tell which part of his dark body was, and the cage turned to nothing.
Or at least from outside, no one could see it anymore.
Blood Lord then walked forward,
And while laughing like a maniac, he kicked the 'nothing' away outside of the Zone.
After that, they all left in a hurry.
The race to level 8 has begun!
...
Planet Lubo.
Little Mortal with a speechless bunch of 'gifts' came to the silver platform from a passage.
The 'gifts' ran away the moment they saw the silver platform.
They were actually kicked out of the zone just now!
If it wasn't because of the space mirror, they couldn't come back forever.
Little mortal looked around vigilantly when he saw them running away in different directions,
"Who is it?
Show yourself, you coward, who only scares children!"
The backpack trembled.
Nobody here is scarier than you.>
Little mortal was speechless.
He shook his head and muttered while taking out his notebook,
"They are so easy to scare...
Didn't I already tell them it's safe?"

"Only one quest left..."
Then he walked to the backpack, placed the notebook on it, and said,
"Alright, everyone,
In 10 hours, the last quest will be done.
I can leave now.
But before that,
Little crystal, take a child guardian token and jump into the black liquid together with it.
I want to try something there with you,
And I need the child token to find the main one later.
The rest of you, remember to never enter that underworld gate if it shows up,
Birth treasures can't function in there; you even lose your power for a period of time.
I read it in the books there."
Then he went to the passage that was still open with the cage at the other side,
And after a last look, left with the guardian token, the invisible crystal, the child token, and the iron cube.
Rose's voice suddenly came from afar,
"Boss, how can you leave without saying goodbye?"
But little mortal was already gone...
Well, he came back again,
"Oh, sorry, I forgot to record the farewell scene and calculate the future with my advanced mathematics."
Rose landed in front of the passage,
But like the rest of the birthday gifts, she became speechless.
Calculate the future with advanced mathematics?
You can do that too?
The hourglass of time was the most curious!
Little mortal went to the whiteboard,
"Alright,
First, the future calculation, then the 'farewell scene'"
Then he asked,
"With the data we have from outsiders,
How long do you think it will take for them to beat a level 6 from our side?
I mean, before they are back to level 7?"
Rose naturally didn't know because he never fought with other higher beings.
The birth treasures discussed for a while, and at the end, glasses of knowledge vibrated,
< If both sides are level 6 originally, probably a year.
However, when it comes to outsiders who are only suppressed to level 6, the fight is over within 1 to 2 days. >
Little Mortal nodded and wrote on the whiteboard.
[ 2 days x 10 universes = 20 days maximum to win 10 universes
1 day x 10 universes = 10 days minimum to win 10 universes
We assume the minimum time.
So the outsiders need 10 days to take over 10 universes and advance back to level 7. ]
Then he asked,
"What about after that?
How long will it take for a level 7 to beat up a level 6?"
And after another round of discussion, because the only data from level 7 was his fights,
And they just felt it as bystanders; they came up with an approximate number.
<10 minutes to 1 hour at most. >
Little Mortal nodded.
[ 10 minutes x 1000 universes = 10,000 minutes to take over 1000 universes
10,000 days / 60 minutes = 166.66666 hours
166.66666 hours / 24 hours = 6.94 days
Let's assume they need only 6 days to take over 1000 universes.
6 days for 1000 universes + 10 days for 10 universes = 16 days in total. ]
Little Mortal then pointed at the whiteboard,
"And as you see, lady and gentlemen,
With advanced mathematics, I calculate the exact time that our mainland will be forced to stop.
And with the speed I saw from Hunters mainland,
They can reach us on the same day.
Which means that the unknown future, about the day we clash with our enemy, is now calculated.
16 days from now!
For an expert in mathematics like me, the word 'unknown' is meaningless!"
The birth treasures,
<-_->
Rose,
"Wait, what?
There is another mainland now?
I didn't even know about ours until recently, and there will be a war with another one in 16 days?"
Seeing her assistant's busy life caused her to be oblivious to the news. Little Mortal pointed at his birthday gifts,
"If you want to know about it, ask them.
But you only have a short scene in that war.
So don't worry about it.
And always remember this,
You are my trusted assistant who keeps things orderly in our main territory, planet Lubo.
Leave the outside matters to us,
And if anyone didn't listen to you here,
Tell me to throw them outside of our territory!"
Rose nodded solemnly,
It was the first time her boss told her what role she really had.
Little Mortal nodded at her and said,
"Any question?"
And Rose, who remembered something, raised her hand,
"I have a question about your calculation."
Little Mortal took a look at his calculation to be sure it was right,
And then asked,
"What question?"
"I remember you said our mainland is fast, and time passes more slowly for faster objects.
We are definitely faster than those hunters.
So, the flow of time will be different when you go there if they are slower?"
The place turned silent.
There was only the sound of wind making pleasant melodies in the crystalline mountains around.
The birth treasures who saw the original video that Little Mortal recorded when God of Prophecy and Lord contacted each other knew that Lord said 1 year in the mainland is equivalent to 10 years for them in Hunters mainland.
Which meant 16 days that Little Mortal calculated was 160 days over there!
So he wasn't short on time at all, and there wasn't anything urgent here...
He could just do it at his own pace.
Little Mortal, who saw the operation time wasn't short at all, started doing some random hand seals,
"Divine technique, time stop!"
Then he ran to the whiteboard and cleaned everything.
Rose and the rest naturally pretended time was stopped!
Then, after some more random hand seals,
"Divine technique, time reversal, to before I calculated the wrong future!"
And looked at Rose.
Rose smiled and said,
"Boss, you were going to record the farewell scene."
The birth treasures were impressed.
Rose, the only 'actor' who never stopped playing her assistant role, was indeed one of a kind.
Little Mortal wiped the nonexistent sweat off his forehead and said,
"Yes, yes...
Now, if you excuse me, I should go after taking this scene."
And closed his eyes as though trying to focus.
But he opened his eyes again,
"Wait, that 'imposter' guy is stuck in resurrection.
Mr. Token, can we release the suppression on his universe now that it's part of our territory and he isn't around?"
[Affirmative.]
"Oh, then do it.
The other side wouldn't know because with the owner of it being dead, the universe is entirely disconnected from Hunters mainland."
[ Request has been sent.
Request has been accepted. ]
"Who are you sending the request to?"
[ The Guardian law in Imposter territory.]
"Oh..."
And small cracks appeared on Little Mortal's skin.
The things around him began to move towards him, as if his body had become a source of gravity.
However, in 10 seconds, everything returned to normal.
Little Mortal looked at his small hands, clenched his fists, and whispered to himself in a way that everyone could hear,
"Level 118! I can do this!"
And closed his eyes again under the speechless gaze of the girl with 112 levels less than him and the birth treasures who didn't understand what he couldn't do before that he can do now with a couple of levels higher?
Little Mortal 'secretly' tapped his token, and then slowly closed his eyes.
The planet's sky turned dark at this moment.
The farewell scene started.
Little Mortal appeared on the 'screen'.
Everyone looked up.
Guardian Mortal was in the sky again...
Who is he going to beat up this time?
After a brief moment, Little Mortal opened his eyes, looked at the horizon, smiled bitterly, and said,
"So, the time has finally come...
The time has come for me to embark on my new journey...
Journey to an unknown place...
Journey to the land of my enemies...
Where there is no one to rely on...
No hope to look for...
No friends to count on..."
Then he sighed in sadness.
The audience was stunned.
This time, the 'public show' was completely new.
He was leaving?
Little Mortal continued,
"There might not be a return for me...
My path might only be a one-way path...
The ending might only be death...."
Then his gaze turned towards the camera,
His smile changed from 'bitter' to 'kind',
And he stayed like this until every single person watching felt he was looking directly at them,
"But only on this path, I see hope, I see light, and I see happiness for my loved ones..."
Then he slowly cupped his hands, bowed a little, and said,
"Everyone, let's meet again, if fate allows...."
And walked into the dark passage behind him, as if going on an unknown journey.
After a couple of steps, his figure disappeared into the darkness.
Everyone on the planet, with tears in their eyes, shouted at the same time,
