Chapter 273: Sign of the End of the World
The end of the world?
It really sounded like a plausible explanation.
People didn’t think that way at first. They only found the rain strange and the phenomena rather incredible. It might not make sense, but they were only curious. Very few people were really bothered by it.
However, when the end of the world was mentioned, it attracted much attention and became all that everybody could think about.
The end of the world!
Raindrops that didn’t wet clothes, and snow that didn’t melt and would vaporize instantly. The end of the world seemed to be a perfect explanation for such a strange phenomenon. All the changes had been caused by the end of the world.
If the end of the world was approaching, nothing would seem strange anymore.
“That’s why! The end of the world is coming! That’s why so many strange things are happening!”
“I see! That’s why my stomach has been upset the whole day! The end of the world is coming!”
“What does your stomach have anything to do with the end of the world?”
“If it’s the end of the world, why are you all so calm?”
“How am I supposed to react? Panic and scream? That’ll disturb other people!”
“I don’t know how to respond to your reasoning…”
......
“I’m just telling the truth. Moreover, we’ve gone through the end of the world once. Why are you still so surprised?”
Only then did other people realize the end of the world had been an ongoing event for them. Earth was going to become uninhabitable, and according to Mr. Soan, it would be thirty years before the environment returned to normal.
Those thirty years would be the end of the world for them.
Mr. Himmel Soan had told them about that before. He had also given them a solution, which was to move to K18, and he was building a portal for that.
Therefore, people on Earth didn’t think much of this premonition of the end of the world.
Besides, the rain and the snow were only unusual. Other than that, they didn’t seem worth any more attention.
Without any side effects, the odd weather was soon forgotten. People began to talk about the portal instead.
“How long do you think we’ll wait before the portal is complete? Mr. Himmel Soan said after they came back from Mars that he could build the portal in a month, but we haven’t heard anything since then.”
“Of course, the portal will be completed in a month. Are you questioning Mr. Himmel Soan? You’re just like the Neigerians! You’ve achieved nothing, but you’re questioning other people all the time. Get a life, man.”
“If Mr. Himmel Soan says it’s going to happen, it’s going to happen. Stop asking silly questions!”
“That’s right! Even if the portal isn’t completed in a month, I’m sure it’s not Mr. Himmel Soan’s problem!”
“Aren’t the Martian rocks used to build the Soanian swords?”
“They’ve brought back so many rocks from Mars. So what if they’ve used some to build a few Soanian swords?”
“A few? They’ve built a hundred! Do you have any idea how many rocks they’ve used? Maybe they’ve used up all the Martian rocks!”
“Bullshit! Even if that’s the case, I’m sure the Soanian swords will help the portal! Stop worrying”
“Did you help build the portal? Have you donated any money? If not, just shut up! If you have so many opinions, help build the portal, then! That way, we can question every move you make!”
“...”
Most people online were on Himmel Soan’s side. If anyone questioned his decisions, people would retort the person right away. Himmel Soan’s supporters didn’t know the answer to those questions either, but they trusted Mr. Soan unconditionally.
Even if the following day was the last day of that month, they would still believe that Mr. Himmel Soan would fix everything. Even if they would have to wait for three months. After all, they had all seen what Mr. Himmel Soan could do.
They knew Mr. Himmel Soan would keep his promise.
...
Himmel Soan stood in front of the window for a whole day. Firey held him from behind this whole time. She didn’t understand why her master was so upset. She only knew that doing so could help him ease his pain.
After a whole day, Himmel Soan finally shifted his body. He turned around, exhaled, and regained his usual calm. It was as if nothing had happened.
“Firey, are you cold?” Himmel Soan rubbed Firey’s hair.
Firey shook her head. She then threw herself in his arms. Himmel Soan could conceal his feelings, but Firey couldn’t.
She didn’t know why, but her master’s emotions made her want to cry. Still, she chose to hold Himmel Soan. It was only until then that she cried like a wronged child.
Himmel Soan held Firey in his arms. If she hadn’t put her arms around him, maybe he would remain in that state until the planet was covered by ice and snow.
Luckily, she had stopped him.
He knew what had happened in the past two days because his mental force still covered Earth. He knew Firey was hurt by his snow when she used her power on the rain.
However, he was too absorbed in his emotions to do anything.
Now that he had returned to his senses, he felt sorry for her.
