Chapter 29 - The Beginning

The strange aircraft simultaneously attacked Touzen's plane with a very powerful barrage.

"Ah damn! Everyone, please hold on!" shouted Touzen, ordering everyone in his plane, because his plane's engine was destroyed by the shots and would die slowly. However, thanks to Touzen Ishigari's intelligence, the plane managed to land even though it was heavily damaged.

After successfully landing, the Shayan members were ordered to exit by Gens Sheyan.

"Touzen, thank goodness. But how about this? Your plane... it's unusable now," said Gens, grateful yet feeling guilty towards Touzen.

"Ah, it's fine. That means... from now on, I have no hope of returning home. But I'm grateful! Now I can focus more on fighting alongside you to build the time machine!" said Touzen calmly.

"Touzen... I am truly thankful to you. But are you serious? I actually have a plan to disband the Shayan group I created because I really don't want to endanger them, especially since they are people who have supported me so much," said Gens, accompanied by a gentle breeze.

"Then? What was the point of you forming that group all this time?" Touzen's question.

"Ah right, I haven't told you about this. This group was formed only to complete missions from the AI. That was also one of the conditions to get the next mission we have now," Gens explained.

"What? So you did all that just for missions? And the mission now is... to kill those geniuses, right?" was Touzen's response after hearing the fact from Gens.

"Yes, you're exactly right... but I don't dare face them one by one, t-they are human too..." said Gens with a confused face.

"Then what's your plan?" Touzen's short question.

"I once thought about destroying this country by summoning a meteor from space because, in my opinion, that's the craziest thing I learned from the book given by Yananaig! But I intended to summon it while we were flying in the air. However, now your plane is broken, so..." Gens' explanation shocked Touzen.

"Huh? Are you serious about doing that? I don't mind, but after you summon something crazy like that... what will happen to you? You could lose consciousness for a long time! Even though you're skilled at doing it now... for this, I think it's quite risky! So... so what? Don't tell me..." said Touzen, unable to comprehend Gens's plan.

"Yeah, I will still do it even if we are on land. Therefore, Touzen! You should return to your country after this conflict is over! At least... you'll die with your family, and I... I am the one who will kill you..." was Gens's statement and suggestion to Touzen.

"Haha, alright, I agree. But it's a real shame, Gens. You are very wrong to say I must die near my family because... in my opinion, my family is all of you! Therefore, I won't leave here. This is your fault, you know!" said Touzen with enthusiasm and happiness.

"T-To-Touzen, why are you so kind to us? Ah damn, I'm touched. But you should reconsider later, and think about Thea too," said Gens, filled with emotion and gratitude towards Touzen.

"Thea, yeah... she is... just a person who has died. If I die, she will remain dead. She... won't be able to stay far from me..." was Touzen's incomplete explanation.

"D-died? What do you mean?" Gens's question.

"Let it go, no need to discuss it," was Touzen's response.

Gens Sheyan thought that if he destroyed everything in this world, the mission requiring him to defeat a total of five Geniuses would automatically be accomplished... Yes! That would indeed happen. But wouldn't that only succeed if Gens Sheyan were still alive? What if Gens died? Did Gens not think about that? Of course, Gens thought about it. But Gens thought that at least if he wiped out the current world, this world would start over from the beginning, and that was also the same as Gens's goal all along. Gens accepted himself even if he would die as a destroyer and an annihilator of life. Even if there were no more life in this world later, Gens thought that was for the better.

After Yananaig disappeared without a trace, the Geniuses of Xenonida now agreed to eliminate the Shayan Group. Who knows what happened to them all? Suddenly, they united and agreed on one goal, because usually the Geniuses were at odds with their respective sciences and opinions.

While Gens was talking with Touzen, the Geniuses arrived and attacked them. That moment was truly a disaster. Initially, the Shayan Group's objective after landing was to defeat the invading AI robots, but what was this? Instead, the Geniuses became their opponents.

"Everyone! Counterattack carefully, keep your distance, and try to escape! Because no matter what, the situation is not in our favor! And after that... f-forgive me..." Gens commanded his members, then he explained all the details of his current goal. But who would have thought, after they all heard Gens's explanation, they still agreed and remained loyal to their leader, Gens Sheyan.

Gens couldn't comprehend them. He hoped that after explaining, they would leave him. But what was this? They still agreed and followed Gens! Had he made a mistake for the second time?

They had just suffered a disaster, and now they were forced to fight against the attacking Geniuses. Even Touzen, who initially disagreed with Gens's goal of killing Geniuses, now had a changed mind. Now he would fully help Gens no matter what.

One of the Geniuses approached Touzen to defeat him.

"Yo yo!You don't seem to be from this country, do you? Who are you?" asked that Genius, who was none other than Genius Rafael.

"Yes,you're right! But... even though I'm an intruder... I'll become a hero in this country, you know!" said Touzen jokingly while attacking using the martial art he mastered, Arvatas.

"Oh...?You're not mistaken, are you? Not a hero... you're just a pale future corpse with evil intentions!" said Rafael while counterattacking Touzen with all his might.

But Touzen wasn't panicked by Rafael's counterattack because the martial art he used(Arvatas) involved moving in circular motions, redirecting attacks, and utilizing the opponent's energy.

Gens was also approached by a Genius aiming to eliminate him. However, the Genius facing Gens looked familiar to him.

"You?Have we met before?" Gens asked that Genius, but the Genius immediately attacked Gens without any pleasantries.

"Hey!Answer my question first, you bastard!" Gens asked while easily dodging the sudden attack from that Genius.

"Yes,you're right! I am the Genius who took the NeuroSyn Deus Omega from you!" said that Genius with a very sharp gaze.

"You?You're the Genius who kidnapped me back then, you bastard?" asked Gens with a completely confused mind.

"Exactly!I am Gusa! The Genius among Geniuses!" said Gusa firmly.
