**27th July, 5100 A.W.E.**
**The Café Near the Company Tower**
Light and A were sitting at a table when Hope rushed in, crying.
**LIGHT:** What happened?
**HOPE:** I fell asleep in class again! S kicked me out and gave me a special assignment. If I don’t finish it by the end of the day, he said he would kill me!
**A:** Well, rest in peace.
**HOPE:** You’re so mean! *Crying...*
**LIGHT:** Don’t be like that. Of course, we’re going to help you. What is the assignment about?
**HOPE:** The assignment is about the history of the Old World.
**A:** The history of the Old World? Interesting topic.
**LIGHT:** Well, in that case, there’s someone who can help us. Let me call him.
Light calls someone.
**RED:** Why the fuck are you calling?
**LIGHT:** Believe me, I have no interest in calling you, but I need your help. Get here now!
A teleportation ring appears at the café.
**RED:** I’m here. What the fuck do you want?
**LIGHT:** Red, I would like for you to meet my puppy.
**HOPE:** I am not a puppy! My name is Hope.
**RED:** When the fuck did they make humanoid puppies?
**A:** We’re still trying to figure that one out.
**LIGHT:** For the last time, I am not a puppy! Just forget it; S is going to kill me. I’m dead! *Crying.*
**RED:** Wow, she really is crying like a puppy. Now I kind of feel bad for her.
**A:** You have the oldest bloodline in the world, connected not only to the Old World but even before that. You’re also the oldest among us, so we need your help.

**RED:** Being called old is not something I appreciate.
**LIGHT:** Congratulations! I didn’t like being called young either.
**HOPE:** Can you please help me? Please, please!
**RED:** How can I say no to those puppy eyes? Fine, I will tell you about the Old World.
*Nothing much is known about the Old World except a few things, such as during the 20th century, there were two world wars that devastated the world. During the Second World War, a nuclear bomb fell on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan, claiming many lives. Other significant events included the Cold War, the global pandemic that occurred in the 21st century, and the Russia-Ukraine war, among many others. There are also some remnants of the Old World created by ancient civilizations, such as the Pyramids of Giza, the Eiffel Tower in France, and many other structures. The Old World ended after the Third World War, which devastated the planet. After the Third World War, the world was in chaos, but eventually, peace came. Humanity stopped fighting over useless reasons, and there was finally peace. Technology advanced beyond imagination, but peace doesn’t last long. People began to show their true colors, as it is human nature; chaos and war would always return. This led to the Dark Century and the Ancients, a group of people who changed the world for better or worse. Among the Ancients were me, Light, and Blue, who created the prototypes and laid the foundation of the project. After that, a war ensued that seemed to last an eternity. Then came two monsters, two friends who would end the war: the King of the Black Night and the White Moon, known back then as the Black Death and the White Snake, or the White Death. After that, the event that would change our lives forever occurred: S killed White to save us, but we betrayed him, and I couldn’t save her. After that, the Black Night happened, and you know the rest.*
**HOPE:** That is a lot of information.
**RED:** I’m not done yet! There are other events, such as the Red Night, and so on.
**HOPE:** Thank you for this! I love you! Thank you, thank you!
**A:** Well, there is one event missing.
**LIGHT:** And what would that be?
**A:** The person who defeated the King of Kings.
**LIGHT:** Oh, you’re right! Just give me a second.
M and Blue appear at the café.
**M and BLUE:** What the fuck did you call me here for, and why the fuck is he here?
**A:** Come on, settle down, guys. We just wanted to know about the guy who founded the Ancients and the man who defeated the King of Kings.
**BLUE:** What for?
**LIGHT:** To help a certain puppy.
**HOPE:** I have told you countless times, I am not a puppy! My name is Hope!
**LIGHT:** Sorry about that. To help our puppy named Hope.
**HOPE:** I just give up.
**M:** When did they make human puppies?
**HOPE:** Oh God, help me!
**AFTER 2 HOURS**
**RED:** Okay, I have important things to do, so bye.
**BLUE, LIGHT, and A:** We need to go as well, with M.
**M:** Wait, why am I stuck with her?
**HOPE:** So, you want to go shopping?
**M:** Yeah, why not?
**AFTER 1 HOUR**
**M:** Wow, she can buy a lot of stuff!
**HOPE:** I love you, M! Let’s go to that shop next!
**M:** Okay. *M smiles.*
**THE NEXT DAY**
**IN THE CLASSROOM**
S held the essay titled "Author: Hope and the King of Kings," seething with anger.
**S:** Get out!
**HOPE:** Do I pass, Professor?
**S:** Just get the fuck out of this classroom!
Hope exited the classroom, and screams from students echoed behind her.
