Metropolis-D was sleepy on this beautiful morning.
What about the end of the fucking world about to happen? Well, there was no proof it was true, and the sky darkening had only happened above Metropolis-C. They would be fine, right?
In this peaceful atmosphere, Josh headed toward the Tower. He was wearing his true face with MTA soldiers respectfully nodding at him for once. Markus had sent word about him already.
"Welcome to the Tower, Sir!"
"Please be careful in there. Something strange started happening!"
"It could be really dangerous. Sir, think about your loved ones. Should you really risk your life?!"
What a joke! His loved ones? That's precisely why he freaking had to Climb! Their warnings were well-intentioned but so wasted on him! He didn't even bother to reply and just waved them goodbye, disappearing on Floor 24.
Was it the right decision? Even in retrospect, it's hard to say. After all, no one can predict the future perfectly. Hell, even the gods aren't able to. This is simply because gods cannot perceive the actions of other gods clearly. Even the prophecy gods aren't omniscient. This quickly becomes an impossibly chaotic mess.
