He.
That teenager!
He was Himmel Soan!
He was the Patriarch of the Soan empire!
What kind of a sick joke was that?
Henry looked at Gordon and saw that the latter was even more astonished than him.
“Henry, I…” Gordon threw his hands in the air. He didn’t know what to say and became incoherent. “It’s just… I… He… I mean… Did they call the wrong name, or did I hear it wrong? Did you hear it?”
“Yes!” Henry nodded, his lips quivering.
Gordon knew what he had heard, but he couldn’t bring himself to believe it. However, he had to believe it after Henry’s confirmation.
It completely shattered his view of this world. He had lived long enough to see his fair share of monsters and villains. But he had never seen something like this before.
It was beyond his comprehension.
“L.. We… Did we… Did we see something that we shouldn’t have?”
Henry and Gordon looked at each other, both realizing the significance of the incident.
“Stop the live stream! Shut it now!”
In the online world.
“What the heck? Why does it keep swaying?”
“Yes, why? Are the helicopters still airborne? How long has it been? They should have let us know by now! If they have fallen into the sea, there shouldn’t be any signal.”
“It’s making me dizzy. I can’t watch it anymore.”
“Wait! I think I’m seeing something.”
“Yes! The image is back! Shit! What’s going on? Why are the waves so high?”
“What’s that? People of the Soan empire are all kneeling on the ground! They haven’t jumped into the sea!”
“Look! Do you see a person up there? Look!”
“Shit! I see it!”
“Where? I can’t see anything!”
“Look! That person isn’t very tall, and with the seawater as the background, he’s hard to spot!”
“I still can’t see it!”
“I see it! I see it now! What’s that? Is the person flying?”
“Holy crap! There really is a person up there? What’s going on? Who’s that, and where’s the coffin?”
“That’s right! Where’s the crystal coffin? It’s gone! Have they thrown it into the sea?”
‘The screen was covered by bullet chats when everything went white before the screen turned black.
“The live stream has ended.” That was the line on the screen.
“Shit! What’s going on?”
“Why has the live stream ended?”
“No way! Has something gone wrong? Did the helicopters fall into the sea?”

“That’s not possible! Didn’t you see the last image? Plus, things have calmed down.”
“Everything was back to normal, apart from the rising waves.”
“That’s right. In that case, they couldn’t have fallen into the sea. Why did they shut down the live stream?”
“Why are you asking me? Speaking of which, why didn’t I see the person you were talking about?”
“He was there! There was a person flying in the air! The entire Soan empire was worshiping that person!”
“Don’t make it sound so dramatic! It’s giving me the creeps! You’re seeing things!”
“That’s alright. I’ve recorded it!”
Many viewers were in the habit of making screencaps. Some viewers had recorded everything, including the blurry images. However, they couldn’t find it anywhere when they searched their files.
“Sorry. Because of an error with the server, your screencaps are not saved. We have not found out what caused the malfunction, and we are looking into it. We apologize for the inconvenience!”
“What happened? The server went down, and my screencap is gone!”
“Shit! The same thing happened to my live stream app! The server is down!”
“So is my app! What the heck? I was recording everything! There were the people who went to see off Mr. Himmel Soan, the ocean road, the helicopters, everything!”
All the live stream apps malfunctioned, and the screencap function had stopped working. That was to say, everyone had lost their screencaps.
‘The public was enraged. Once that footage was lost, they couldn’t get it back.
Early the following day, people opened their browsers, trying to find out more about the Soan empire.
It had been a day, and the Sky Eye and the Dragon Tribe should have come up with an explanation about what happened to the Soan empire.
“all members of the Soan empire have returned. The whole country is rejoicing!” When people clicked open Sky Eye’s social media account, they read such a title.
Over a billion people had clicked on it. Every person who had read it jumped up and down in joy.
“They’ve come back!”
“They didn’t die! They’ve all come back!”
“are they back? Really?”
“That’s great! I knew it! I knew they would tum their heads around!”
“That’s great! This country needs them! We need them!”
“Our country should treat the Soan empire nicely from now on! They never asked for anything in return. We can’t let them go through such humiliation again!”
“That’s right! We can’t let Mr. Himmel Soan’s incident happen again!”
“Tm so excited! I think the country should compensate for the Soan empire. They’ve made so many contributions to us.”
“Look at the second title. The government is already discussing it. I think they’ll reach a conclusion this afternoon.”
“That’s great! Mr. Soan is still alive! My savior is still alive!”
“But I’ma little curious. What made them change their minds? Don’t get angry, but I’m just curious. I’m so happy that the Soan empire has come back. I just don’t understand what changed their minds.”
“Yes. I’m curious, too. Why?”
The government announced its conclusion two hours later.
The Soan empire had been helping the country with its development for the past two centuries and had made many contributions. After some discussion, they decided to compensate the Soan empire ten billion for their annual contribution.
For two centuries, the sum would be two trillion.
“Holy shit! Two trillion?!”
“Our country is very generous!”
“think that’s the least they could do. Of the two trillion, 1.5 trillion was probably made by the Soan empire.”
“Lagree. Two trillion isn’t a lot.”
Less than ten minutes later, there was another piece of news.
“The Soan empire won’t take a dime.. They’ve returned the whole two trillion!”
