Somewhere on the other side of the world, 20xx AD.

In the desert, a man is wearing a gray cloak that covers up to his knees, boots, eye protection, long jeans, and a gas mask, walking alone through the sandstorm around him while trying to dispel the sandstorm that hit him. This man walking with the help of a GPS on a smartphone in his hand

“Damn, how much further do I have to walk…”

Soon, he felt as if the ground around him was shaking, he then stopped his steps. Not long after, a gigantic shadowy figure resembling a human silhouette as tall as a six-story building that was obscured by this sandstorm was walking closer to where this man was standing, but this silhouette then stopped its steps. This man looked up to see a large creature in front of him and looks familiar with it. Moments later, a male voice sounded on his smartphone

“You suck at it, finally I can find you”

This man replied

"Save your words for later, we have to hurry"

The man on the smartphone connection replied

"Yeah, alright. By the way, I have something you might be interested"

Not long after, the man in the cloak smartphone rang for a moment, he then paid attention to his smartphone screen which now displays a news program about Black Star entitled “Hero or Villain?”.

 

Somewhere on the other side of the world, 20xx AD.

The atmosphere now is night. In a restaurant, appears that the customers have all gone and leaving only a teenage boy sitting at one of the tables in this restaurant which has a sofa on both sides of the table facing each other, for four people. This table is arranged in rows of several similar tables and all of them are close together in the front of the row of rectangles windows in the front part inside this restaurant. This teenage boy appears to be wearing his school uniform, his attention fixed on the TV mounted on the ceiling that shows news about Black Star. A young adult female waitress appeared to pay attention to this teenage boy while standing at the cashier counter which had a restaurant bar table for eating next to it. This woman watched this teenage boy and occasionally glanced at her watch. Finally, this female waitress then move from where she was standing and walked towards the teenage boy, then stood near his table

“Sorry, but our restaurant is closed”

Hearing this, the teenage boy's attention then turned to the female waitress, while looking at his watch for a while, only the part of the face around this teenage boy's mouth is shown

“Oh right, sorry, I was too focused on the news program on TV”

The teenage boy extended his hand toward this woman and then showed his empty hand

“This is the fee”

Seeing the teenage boy's actions, the female waitress's expression turned astonished

“Are you kidding with me?”

The teenage boy smiled, he then turned and grasp his hand, then turned it back towards this woman, and now on the palm of this teenage boy's hand there is money folded in half, everything happened in just a fraction of a second. The female waitress was surprised to see this, she then accepted the money from this teenage boy. This woman appeared hard to believe what she just saw while smiling

“Wow, how did you do it? You have to tell me the trick if you want to impress me”

The teenage boy smiled again

“No tricks here miss”

The teenage boy stood up from his seat, then immediately tried to reach something past the side of this woman's head towards the back of the head of this woman using his right hand, making this woman a little surprised. In a split second, the teenage boy withdrew his right hand which was now holding a flower, he then handed this flower to the woman

“This is my token of apology for keeping you waiting”

With an expression of disbelief, the woman then accepted this flower

"Whatever your tricks are, I admit you have talent"

Hearing this, the teenage boy just smiled. The woman's attention then turned to the TV towards her back and seeing the news about Black Star. Before long, her expression change a little scared

“I think I can understand why you would be interested in that news…”

This young woman said while looking back at the teenage boy, but he had already disappeared, making the female waitress surprised. She looked around, but still could not find the whereabouts of the teenage boy. Back on the TV screen, the headline news being conveyed is now entitled "Hero or Villain?".

 

Somewhere on the other side of the world, 20xx AD.

The night sky looks bright and cloudy. A burly man with a tall body, wearing an unbuttoned short-sleeved shirt, a t-shirt under his shirt, long jeans, boots, and a baseball cap on his head, he appeared to walk into a minimart located in a quiet suburban area. The man in the hat walked without hesitation straight to the showcase fridge and put a large amount of beer into his shopping basket. The cashier manning here was a man whose attention was focused on the TV mounted high up on the wall here, which was showing news regarding Black Star. The man in the hat then walked over to the cash register, and placed his groceries on the counter, all of which were beer. Appears that the cashier ignored the man in the hat, and kept watching TV. Because of this, the man in the hat then looked at the TV as well which still showed news about Black Star. The man in the hat is only visible from the side, and his face is only partially visible around the mouth, the man in the hat then smiles

“Black Star, if someone like him were to look after us, I would never again have to worry about my safety, hahaha”

The man in the hat laughed casually. Hearing this, the male cashier was surprised and came to his sense, he then immediately turned his attention from the TV to serve the man in the hat

"I'm sorry sir, I was lost in thought"

The man in the hat smiles

“No need to apologize, the news on TV is indeed very interesting”

The man in the hat then grinned coldly, and the cashier in front of him somehow started to feel goosebumps. The cashier then immediately finished taking care of the groceries of this man in the hat, he then paid and took his groceries.

When the man in the hat was about to leave through the front door of this minimart, three men then walked into this minimart, with quick steps past the man in the hat as if they didn't care about him. The man in the hat could see that the three men each carrying a handgun. The man in the hat then immediately stopped in his tracks. Arriving at the cashier, the three men then threw the empty bags they were carrying at the cashier, then pointed their handguns at the cashier, to rob and threaten him. The cashier immediately obeyed their orders to put all the money into their bags. The man in the hat sighed, he then turned around and immediately walked back to the cashier

“You three, I can't let you guys”

Hearing this, the three men looked annoyed, one of them then pointed his gun at the man in the hat

"Don't interfere, I will not hesitate to shoot you"

The man in the hat sighed again, he then put his groceries on the floor

"Your guns won't even be able to scratch me... it seems like I have to beat you guys, like it or not"

The man in the hat looks disinterested. Hearing this, the three men looked surprised. Before the three men can answer, the man in the hat then moved so fast that it caused a blast of wind that spread to all corners of this minimart, dropping many of the items displayed in this minimart. In the blink of an eye, the man in the hat had passed the three men in front of him and was now standing behind them. After just slightly moving his hand about to beat them, these three men then fell unconscious. Seeing this, the man in the hat's expression turned astonished

"What's this? I haven't even touched them, they're really boring”

Appeared that just being directly exposed to the air friction created by the speed of the man in the hat was enough to stun the three of them. The cashier who saw all this looked shocked, he thought to himself

“What feeling did I have just now? For a moment I felt like I was going to die…”

The man in the hat then turned to the cashier

"You better call the police"

The cashier looked nervous

"Okay, I understand"

The cashier immediately used his smartphone to call the police. The man in the hat felt that his business here was finished, he then walked towards the entrance of this minimart while taking back his groceries, and walked out of the minimart. In front of the minimart, this man with a hat walked while looking bored

“I hope my boring days will end soon”

This man smiled coldly. The cashier in the minimart had finished calling the police, he immediately ran out of the shop to thank the man in the hat who had just helped him.

Arriving in front of the minimart, the cashier was immediately shocked and stopped his steps, because of what he saw in front of him. A crack-like cracked glass appeared in the empty air in front of him, this crack widened and emitted white light from behind the crack, the man in the hat then walked into the crack. After the man in the hat passed through the crack, it started to close again and disappear. The cashier could only stand in his place with a disbelief expression

“What did I just see…”

Back inside the messy-looking minimart, the headline news on TV is now titled “Hero or Villain?”.
