Edward never thought he would one day be asked this question again after many years of being in the field.


    "How much do I know about quantum physics?" He asked himself, repeating Ss'' questions.


    His knowledge on quantum physics isn''t less than what every knowledgeable person in the field knows. Though his specification is in string theory and topological quantum field theory, he still deals with quantum physics, so he''s very familiar with the topic.


    "Professor Edward, it''s okay. What I wrote on the book is the equation to follow when one wants tobine a superconducting qubit and a topological qubit, when creating a quantumputer. So it''s understandable if you don''t get it right," Ss said, as he tapped on the book in Professor Edward''s hands, before continuing what he was saying with a smile, "Though, that is that.


    What I said before is true. Your initial approach to everything was wrong."


    "An equation on entangled qubit?" Professor Edward asked himself as he looked at the book.


    "Though this is different from the equations that I''m familiar with, I don''t understand how my approach was wrong. Also, how are you sure that your equation is correct?" He asked, as he looked at Ss'' intently.


    Ss smiled when he heard Professor Edward''s question.


    "Professor Edward, that''s because I used it and it worked," Ss replied with a smile.


    Professor Edward''s curiosity was already at its peak and his previous thought on Ss being a disturbance to him,pletely disappeared from his mind.


    His thought now was on how to understand the equation that now pose a problem to him. An equation that was given to him by a kid.


    "You used it? Does that mean that you created an actual quantumputer?.. No, it shouldn''t be an actual quantumputer, maybe something like what Google and IBM has," He said to himself.


    Ss couldn''t help butugh when he heard what Professor Edward said.


    "Honestly, I thought what they had was a quantumputer but after seeing the real deal, I knew that it was nothingpared to the real deal," Ss said with augh.


    "So how''s the real deal?" Professor Edward asked curiously.


    "The real deal is iparable," Ss replied with a smile.


    "Now you got me even more curious. I really want to see what a real quantumputer is," Professor Edward said with a smile, as he looked at Ss with a look that says "show me" on his face.


    "I can show you but first, I have an offer to make," Ss said, as he cut to the chase.


    Professor Edward raised an eyebrow when he heard what Ss said.


    "Go on, I''m curious."


    "Professor Edward, I want you to work for me," Ss said, and folded his hand as he looked at Professor Edward intently.


    He had already made all of his preparations and he was waiting to see how far things will go before his offer gets epted.


    He also knew that it might not get epted but he wasn''t worried about that. Though he wants Professor Edward to work for him, there are a lot of options he can choose from.


    Professor Edward shook his head when he heard what Ss said.


    "Work for you? I''m sorry kid, but I don''t work for anyone. I''m getting on in years and all I want to do is spend the rest of my days, quietly doing the the things I love," Professor Edward said, as he closed the book he was holding and dropped it on the desk.


    "Professor Edward, what do you love doing? I see you here quietly reading but why do I feel like you long for something else?" Ss asked.


    Professor Edward sighed and looked at Ss, with a lot of emotions shing in his eyes.


    "Look, kid. At some point in one''s life, they must know when to stop and rest. This is that time for me. You''re right that I long for something else other than to sit down in this library and read different books and articles being published by others. I long for so many things but I can''t have them as I''m passed my prime.


    It''s time for the younger ones like you to take on the mantle," He said with a low voice.


    "Professor Edward, I think you should look at the young ones you what to take on the mantle and how they are. Also is the situation of the world giving them a chance?" Ss asked before continued, "Though they are those who have those dreams of being like you and they are working towards it.


    Some are studying as hard as they can, while some are ving away at mega corporations to create a breakthrough technology that will fill the pockets of the executives and they get pitiful pays."


    "Isn''t that the same thing you want to do? Have me ve away to create a breakthrough technology so that you can fill your pocket?" Professor Edward asked, as he looked at Ss in the eyes.


    "You''re getting something wrong here, Professor Edward. I don''t want you to create breakthrough technologies for me because I have created one myself and I can create many others, but I can''t do it alone and I want to share the knowledge I have with others," Ss replied.


    "Let''s say I believe that you have actually created a real quantumputer bettter than what others have. What else?" Professor Edward asked.


    "A lot of things. Almost anything you can imagine. As long it''s feasible and can be created after it has been researched, it can be created," Ss replied with a smile.


    "Such big words from you. I wonder if you have the skills to back it up?" Professor Edward asked, as he picked up one of the book from the table and passed it to Ss.


    "What''s your name, kid?" He asked.


    "Ss Kurt."


    "Ss Kurt, no matter what you say I won''t ept your offer but if you can prove yourself and if it''s true that you really n to do as you said, then I can help you in another way." He said


    "How?" Ss asked curiously.


    "I have students. If you can prove yourself, I will tell them to work for you."


    Ss smiled when he heard this.


    "That''s good then. How do you want me to prove myself?" He asked.
