Ss had gotten the information on the Evolution Capsule and what it can do. It''s a device that can help him to break the limits of the evolutionary potential of the human race.
For someone like him, this means a lot as it changes a lot of things and brings about a lot of ideas.
Heck! Just the fact that it can help him to evolve further means a lot but Ss wasn''t all that enthusiastic about it.
He has already been informed by Luna of the risks involved and he was very uncertain about what might happen. The Evolution Capsule ispletely different from the Gene Enhancement Serum thates with just a lot of pain.
From what he understood after reading the Evolution Capsule description that goes; "it''s a breakthrough technology that is believed to have the effect of helping one to continuously achieve higher levels of gic enhancement."
From this, Ss knew that the effects that the Evolution Capsule can achieve hasn''t been confirmed yet
This means that the creator of the system or whatever entity that puts all these advanced knowledge and tech in the system store doesn''t know the effects of the Evolution Capsule.
This got him thinking. Why is that so? Surely, since the Evolution Capsule can be created, then it means that it has been used but why has its effects not been confirmed?
Is there something more to it? Or is it that everyone that used the Evolution Capsule didn''t experience the hypothetized effects of they... died?
Ss felt a shiver run down his spine when he thought of the worst possibility. Honestly, he would make do with no seeing any effects at all, rather than dying from using the Evolution Capsule.
He thought of this and sighed.
"Do I really have a choice?" He asked himself.
He was fully aware of his body''s condition. He was aware of the timer he has hanging over his head and how he could died in the space of 200 years.
It would had been something to be proud of if he found out that he can live for 200 more years but the "less than" in front of him was very disheartening.
Ss knew that he doesn''t have much of a choice. He can chose to not use the Evolution Capsule and let things continue as they are.
"Haha.. Who am I kidding? Who doesn''t want a chance at immortality? Even if there are risks, why can''t I take the risks? They always say that the higher the risk, the higher the rewards.
Should I give up the chance to break the limit of humanity''s evolutionary potential just because of my fear of dying in the process? It''s not like I won''t die if I don''t do it, so why not take the risk? Beside, the system won''t allow me to die... Hopefully it doesn''t."
Ss said all that to motivate himself and give himself courage. It would be a lie to say he wasn''t scared.
The fear of death is something that''s innate to every human, and Ss wasn''t an exception.
Even though he was acting all nonchnt about it when Luna told him of the risks involved, he secretly felt worried.
Ss closed his eyes briefly and did a series of breathing exercise.
"Huu... Let''s do this!" He said, as he finally made his decision.
He was going to make the trip to Venezu for the Evolution Capsule.
"Luna, how long will it take for the process of gene enhancement in the evolution capsule to bepleted?"
This is another thing that Ss was curious about. How long would the process take?
It was already more than obvious that the gene enhancement that one would go through in the evolution capsulex ispletely different from the regr gene enhancement process he went through when he took the Gene Enhancement Serum (GES).
Ss wanted to know how long he was going to be away, so that he can make preparation for his family. Also, he felt that he should also give them hint in case of any eventualities.
{I''m not sure. We did multiple simtion on it using the real stats of your body and the cells predictive analysis function of the Molecr Analyzer.
In one of the simtions, the process took more than six months and the result was disappointing. The subsequent simtions after that either ended in failures. Thest two simtions produces ok results and that''s the procedure we''re going to follow.}
Ss sighed when he heard this. It was just as he had thought, the risk of death is extremely high.
He was fully aware of the cells predictive analysis function of the Molecr Analyzer and what it can do. If the simtion of the oue of the enhancement process has very disappointing results
"Why the constant feeling of me dying? Why do I feel this way?" Ss was genuinely puzzled by the level of his pessimism at the sess of the evolution capsule''s gene enhancement process.
He felt that it was very unlike him. Maybe it was. Maybe it''s because for the first time in a very long while, there''s something that he has no control over its oue.
"Having negative thoughts about it won''t solve anything," He muttered to himself, as he stood up from the bed and went to the bathroom to freshen up.
After he was freshening up, he went downstairs for breakfast.
When he got downstairs, he saw that everyone were already gathered at the dining area and he was the one left.
He greeted his dad and Kim, and took his seat. His rtionship with his father has gotten closer during thest two weeks they spent together.
Though, their rtionship at the moment wasn''t an ideal one between a father and son, Ss felt that the progress made had been huge.
After he took his seat, he looked at the their faces for a brief moment before he started eating.
He was very uncertain of what the oue from using the Evolution Capsule would be. This is especially so, with the sure risk of death involved but he really can''t help it.
Ss smiled wryly when he realized that he was thinking negatively again about the whole thing. He decided to shove everything rted to the Evolution Capsule to the back of his mind, until he was done eating.
"Ss, is something wrong?," Chris asked curiously.
He couldn''t help but notice that Ss was behaving differently from his usual self. He has spent two weeks with the family and during those two weeks, he made sure to pay extremely close attention his family and study them as much as he could.
From the unsettled look on Ss'' face, he felt that something was up and this was why he asked him the question.
Ss smiled at his father''s question. He has no idea on how he''s going to exin what he''s about to do to them, and he also doesn''t want to make them worried.
"Nothing. I will be making a trip today," He replied.
"Ohh... One of those your trips again?" Chris asked.
He was already aware of the constant trips that Ss always made. He was curious to know what the trips are about but he knew that he would have to let things happened naturally.
"Yes and I don''t know how long I will be gone?"
"Ok, son. Just remember your promise to me... Stay safe," Chris said with a smile.
"Yeah.." Ss quickly finished his breakfast, and stood up.
He looked at Alex who was seated beside him, and ruffled his hair with a smile.
****
In the warehouse that was now empty a living soul, except a young man and ady standing in front of what looks like a opened pod.
"Luna, is everything ready?"
{Yes.}
"Good. Help me to make arrangements for my family security. Also, if I''m to stay in there for more than a month. I want you to go and rescue President Yusmaorobis'' daughter. The time to fufill my promise to him has been long overdue."
Ss turned to look at Luna who was standing beside him and smiled.
"I can trust you, right?"
{Yes. Master can trust me.}
"Thank you, Luna. If anything is to happen to me, please destroy everything her and keep my family safe," Ss said, and got into the Evolution Capsule.
The Evolution Capsule closed the next moment and everything went dark.
From the ss section of the capsule, Luna could see a multicolored fluid filling up its inside.
Luna looked at the figure of Ss who was in the Evolution Capsule q smile on her face.
{You don''t need to worry, master. Luna will take care of everything in your absence. You can''t die yet. You did all this to give everyone a second chance and to find a way to beat ****. You still have a lot to aplish. Maybe after this, you will be ready.
***** Is still waiting. We are all waiting.}
