"So, this is how it ends huh…" a young man of around early 20's smiles wryly as look back to his life. Growing as an orphan, eventually reaching an age where he thought he needs to support the orphanage, unknowingly stumbling into the underworld where he grows as the most terrifying mercenary there is.
The reason being he can always manage to complete any task he got so far, a thing that only he knows how hard he works for in order to accomplish.
Snapping out of his reverie as he heard shouting nearby, he looks around from his hiding hole, the place completely surrounded by dozens of men, most armed to the teeth causing one of them, the only one wearing a tailcoat to be the center of attention.
The man wearing tailcoat, seemingly knowing that the young man is hiding somewhere, started to speak loudly, almost as if taunting the young man.
"Looks like you're at the end of your rope Mr. Nyx, if only you listen to Sir Carlson and avoid interfering with his job."
The young man, hearing his alias knows that it will be nigh impossible to escape the encirclement made for him, not to mention that the person behind the scenes will not hesitate to send some warheads to wipe the entirety of this island from the face of the earth just to deal with him.
"That old guy really spares no effort to deal with me huh?"
"That's a given, you yourself knows what you are capable of, abilities that Sir Carlson will very much like to add on his team" the man paused signaling the armed people to get ready before continuing, "Last chance Mr. Nyx, work with us, and together we will be able to rule the world, like the emperors of old"
The young man couldn't help but laugh at the face of the man's offer, his laugh sounds completely unfettered, yet despite the loud laugh, the armed group can't seem to figure out where the sound come from.
"Bunch of senile bastards thinking it is so easy to rule the world… I have no interest in joining such group"
"Oh please, you know where the same kind, the only difference is you fail to cross 'that' line." The man replies as if he was mocking the young man.
"I never failed, I refuses to cross that line, bastard, because that's the only thing that keeps me human, that keeps me from turning into something like you bunch of pathetic monkeys who can only pursue your endless greed."
The man, seemingly offended by what the young man said couldn't help but frown before quickly recovering, a mocking smile grows on his face before saying, "Pity the same humanity can't help you escape from this situation."
"That's true, but I can at least drag you bunch to hell with me" the young man replied, now appearing behind the man scaring the man out of his wits, the next second, fountain of blood spurted as a decapitated head falls off the ground, signaling a start of a vicious slaughter fest where a single young man handles dozens of heavily armed men with their guns pointed solely on him, all of them completely panicking whenever someone from their rank was taken down without so much as a notice.
The dying members only hearing so much as the loud gunshots and frightful screams of their companion as they stare upon the night sky with the full moon completely visible, marveling at its crimson glow as they gradually lost their breath.
When the sun starts to rise from the horizon, the young man eventually returns to his original hiding spot, where he hears a phone ring coming from the tailcoat-wearing-man.
"Such a pity you refuse the offer Mr. Nyx" an olden voice comes from the other side of the line, causing the young man to frown at their joyful voice.
After a moment of silence, the voice then continues, "Well, it seems like you have no intention of speaking, so I'll just say it straight to you, under the guise of being 'misfired', there's a missile heading towards your direction right now, it might take about a few minutes or so, so… if your beyond human ability can still save you from that and escape by swimming, then by all means, HAHAHAHAHA."
For the first time since the call started the young man replies, "For someone who is supposed to be half a foot off the grave already, you seem to be too pleased with yourself that you gain the energy to talk so much huh… How's the bullet I planted on your spine? Did it grow into a tree yet?"
"You fucking─" the voice seemingly offended starts cursing but the young man already smashes the phone he's holding, while staring at a dot in the sky that appears to grow larger and larger in his sight.
"Pity I failed to completely foil their plan, but I think this should buy the world government enough time" he muttered to himself as he stares at the rapidly approaching missile.
"All in all, it's a good run I think." He said as the entire island lit up, after which the whole island was gone.
----------
In a palace in a certain planet, a mature lady is screaming at the top of her lungs, accompanied by two elderly women who appears to be massaging her abdomen, seemingly pushing something out.
"Lady Su, it's a boy" one of the elders said as she held a baby and proceeds to clean it.
Despite the boy's silence, the elderly midwife just continues her job as if it's none of her concern whether the child is normal or not, after cleaning him and wrapping him up, she handed him to the mature woman before bowing and leaving together with the other elder.
----------
"He's beautiful" a gentle and graceful voice invoking the feeling of warm summertime causes the young man aliased Nyx to snap out of his mind wandering. He was floating in darkness for an indefinite amount of time when he heard this female voice, causing him to be surprised.
Gradually, the feeling of having a body returns to him, the first thing he tries to do being opening his eyes, witnessing a moment that will be etched into his mind for all eternity.
Long luscious hair as dark as the night sky, a pale porcelain like complexion with a healthy milk like glow to it, going perfectly with the perfect egg-shaped face.
Said face was adorned with an almond-shaped eyes holding a pretty large, brown colored pupils that contains nothing but love as she stares toward him, who's now in the form of a child, above those warm yet intelligent eyes are perfectly placed willow eyebrows, connected to a straight cute nose, underneath them being a crimson red small sexy lips with the lower part being thicker, a mole placed in the lower right of it, a peerless beauty in all sense of word.
The once greatest mercenary, despite all of his experiences couldn't help but marvel at the sight in front of him, as not even one of those peerless beauty he encountered back on earth could hold a candle against this woman in front of him, almost as if he would be comparing a moth to the moon, and this very same woman is smiling at him with eyes full of tenderness and love, something that he never experienced before, making him unconsciously reach out towards the woman's face.
Seeing the action of her newborn, the woman couldn't help but shed a tear of joy as she watches him, bringing him even closer to her as she mutters under her breath, "I will never let anything happen to you, my dear Xiaotian."
