Chương 5: Chapter 4: Entering Samsara, part 1

"The world ..."

Forming a few thoughts in his head about how to best express the changes happening around the world, he continued, "The world has changed a lot in these two years."

Seeing the man's expression changing to apprehension, Kiel cheekily smiled.

"Changing to a better direction right!?"

Nodding his head, Swallow continued, "As per the tests conducted by the world's government, the world average temperature has gone down by 0.08 degree celsius in these two years, which means a 0.04 degree celsius decrease per year. The rate is almost double the increase rate of temperature in the mid twentieth century. Calculations estimate that the world's average temperature will attain original level in almost 40 years and may even continue to decrease. That means not only will there be no more global warming, but we may even enter the ice age!! Can you believe it!!"

Swallow was surprised when he received the reports. But seeing the nonchalant expression of Kiel in front of him, who not only didn't seem surprised, but looked even as if it was to be expected, he could only continue.

"Next due to the decrease in temperature worldwide, Antarctica has gained about 300 gigatonnes of ice while greenland almost 600, forming new ice caps.. This all lead to the strengthening of the hydrological cycle, leading to more rainy days and more storms.

Earthquakes world wide have increased in both intensity and frequency.

Furthermore, it is observed that the ozone hole has reduced by 3 million square kilometers and further decreasing by 1.5 million sq. km annually.

Also the excessive carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is breaking down into molecular carbon and oxygen, leading to the formation of .... "

Speaking till this he paused for a bit looking at Kiel's expressionless face. Seeing his urging eyes wanting him to continue, he sighed started the reports again, "Big black activated carbon clouds!!" and stopped.

"Oh! " Kiel simply replied.

Swallow sighed because of his non commitment, and continued, "Since carbon is denser than air, the black clouds sink to the surface, depositing carbon compounds for human consumption. Everyone is shocked. And.. "

Stopping Swallow for a second, Kiel said, "Well , aren't you forgetting something?"

"??"

Seeing the questioning look on Swallow's face, he cheerfully spoke, "The activated charcoal of the clouds should adsorb the impurities from the atmosphere, aiding the purification process and distilling the water vapours of acidic components, decreasing the chances of acid rain."

Hearing this Swallow was taken aback! Trembling he asked, "how do you know this? This is a secondary effect and should ..."

Silencing him by gesturing him to shut up, Kiel replied with his signature cheeky grin, "I'm Kiel. Did you forget that?? Now enough about atmosphere. How about the biotic factors??- flora and fauna you know"

"Alright. Plants are showing better photosynthesis, nutrient absorbing properties and better growth. Some plants are even showing chemosynthesis and thermosynthesis abilities. Strange!! Animals are becoming healthier. No other apparent abilities are seen. Humans are also experiencing similar things. Human bodies have become healthier at a cellular level. Even better disease resistance and improved immunity is observed. The mitochondria can now absorb more nutrients and produce more energy. Obviously resulting in more hunger. As a result … poverty has increased, affecting economics. "

"Please spare the politics to me. Well anything more?? "

Glancing at the reports, he replied. "Nothing more significant."

Pausing for bit, he continued, "Now that my piece is over, tell me what did you do in that underground facility??"

Thinking that it was finally his turn to speak, he sighed. Before speaking, he took out a small packet of medicines, took out one and gulped it. Then took some water. Finally after being silent for a while he started speaking..

"Well it seems that the threshold is even near than I imagined" Kiel muttered.

"Hmm??"

"Nothing. Sigh! well it's a long story. This is the main reason I self destructed the base. I didn't want you all to find out these things now. Humans have enough of a head start by possessing more technology. You also know about the falsity particles which led to all this. Now if you all gain the truth too, you all will get a greater head start. Then the balance may be destroyed. That's why i wanted to kill everyone there… including me."

"Why? You can help humanity?? You would be considered the saviour of humanity!! You could even become an idol for everyone!!'

"And be allowed to be backstabbed by the same humanity, when my usage is finished??" smirking Kiel continued " And how?? By being treated as a lab rat?? I would rather prefer to leave these things to you all"

Speechless, Swallow could only say, "Please continue"

Seemihly pleased with himself, he continued speaking slowly.

"But it seems that the world still favours humanity. After all we are its masterpiece.", with a smirk he continued, "And so as a reward for saving me, I'll let you in the truth. It seems fate saved me this tale, so I can only comply with it. Otherwise it won't grant me a quick death."

'Well almost the truth', inside he thought.

"Well, it all started 15 years ago after my invention of magneto-eclecticism. Uhmm .... to better understand what I want to convey to you all, let me start with the basics."

Glancing at the man opposite him once and seeing him listening, he continued.

" As already known of electromagnetism, which make use of an electric charged particles like electrons as its basis, magneto-eclecticism, as the polar opposite of the former, makes use of magnetic monopoles. And for almost two centuries it was believed that magnetic monopoles don't exist practically, until I destroyed that belief.", Kiel was filled with pride as he spoke of his achievement.

Remembering what started his journey till today, he had a smile on his face.

"Well basically what I did was use the new advent of nuclear fusion, combined it with nuclear fission to make the process a chain reaction, then used the chain reaction to bombard a magnetic dipole continuously. As the dipole was going to form another two dipole I again fused them and repeated the cycle simultaneously. After a certain period of time what I got was the two monopoles at a very negligible distance to each other still creating a dipole, but remained a monopole. Then I added two new dipoles in a similar condition fusing only the n-poles, leaving 2 s-poles and 1 n-pole. This created the very first magnetic monopole. The s-type. After this the process was easy, creating the same with an n-type. I was so happy at that time, thinking that I created a miracle. So I continued to further observe what happened.

But the strange thing was that after a certain no. of the particles came together, the n-pole started remaining stationary and combined while the s-type started spinning, creating a cycle of magnetostatics. The revolution of science and technology."

Swallow listened to him silently, thinking how such a genius came into being. Pausing for a little, Kiel started again.

"As electromagnetics created lasers and weapons, magnetoelectrics created shields. Well ... it doesn't mean that they can't create the opposites. I just wanted to compliment the balancing process of nature."

"After creating the miracle of my life as you all know I became famous. Many projects contract and other similar things came to me. I did all I could to make it even more process resulting in creating electric shields. As electromagnetism gave out radiation, magneto-electicism absorbed them.

After finding out many more interesting facts, I became more famous and even got military projects.

It ... was one of the happiest moments of my life. And I even charted the magneto-electric spectrum which read the anti-particle spectrum. It was the top of my career."

Reminiscing with a smile he continued.

"It was then that I thought that a break was necessary. And I wanted to fulfill my dream of seeing all the world. So I started my vacation. But little did I know that it would change how I see the world itself."

"During my tours when I reached Columbiana, I got invited to an archeological site inspection. Their team reported that they had discovered a marble which gave out radiation which had a small healing effect on the body. Intrigued, I complied with them. As I went with them and inspected the marble, it seemed very ordinary. But when I touched it, it gave ... a rejuvenating feeling to me. Intrigued I studied and experimented on it. What I got was shocking to me."

"We all know that photons with zero mass lie on the boundary of particle and wave. It has duality nature. But the radiation coming from the marble was both a particle and a wave simultaneously!!! The particles transitioned between energy and matter!! This was a groundbreaking discovery, but it seemed to be impossible at the same time. So I named it Reality wave and Reality particles. But the particle seemed to be unstable."

The whole room was silent as Kiel talked about his exploits.

"Shocked I loaned a small amount of the marble with the most concentration. I started experimenting on it. And the more I experimented, the more astonishing the results were. But the substance was too little for full conclusions. I was aggrieved that I was so close to another revolution yet so far. But the world seemed to take pity on me. At one of my nights, I was scanning for any spectrum changes. I again got a similar reading of falsity waves on my scanner. Strange thing was when I tried to scan it separately by E-M or M-E Scanners, they didn't catch anything. But when I merged them and scanned again, I got similar waves. But then the waves vanished after a few moments. Curious about the results, I performed similar tests and got similar results many times, but mostly at night."

"One day when I visited a museum of meteors, I got a similar reading but more concentrated. When I scanned where they came from, I got one of the meteors. So I hurriedly made a deal with them and took it. Now that I think about it, it was the turning point of my career. After that I figured out how to produce a much lesser version of reality waves. I named them falsity waves and false particles. They contained very much less energy but were more stable. Also their concentration and intensity increased with temperature, but if the temperature was too much they disintegrated. The ideal temperature range was 600,000 °C - 20 million °C. And strangely they also had a purification effect on the environment. And strangely they could even make us healthy if the proper amount is supplied. Overexcited, I even experimented with me. Those scientist in the lab, were also results of f-particles success.

After that you know what happened- I created environment domes which could help purify pollution and supply more nutrients to the soil. It was a major hit. But they needed a regular supply of reality particles, which were very hard to create."

"Then I got the idea about how I could inject the particles into the core to automate the process. The core's temperature of 6000 °C also could increase it concentration a little. The core could barely use this particles to integrate them in itself and create more of them and eventually produce ores and release it to the surface atmosphere through volcano ducts. Thus I covered a little reality particles with auxiliary falsity particles compatible with the earth and fired them to the core magnified by the intersecting energizers, to not loose their energy early on."

"And as the earth gets filled up, it will eventually strengthen flora and fauna, getting them to evolution threshold. And our long halted evolution will begin again. Everyone will get the strength to protect themselves. The world will thus enter a new era- The era of evolution."

The more he spoke, the more excited he became and the more fervent his expression became. So it created more stress on him.

"Cough… Cough… cough"

Swallow who was listening intently to the story in fear of missing even a single word, got up worried, handing him a glass of water.

"Dr.K are you alright?!! You are not well. You should not be too stressed."

Gesturing him to not worry and taking the glass, Kiel replied, "Don't worry. I know my body well. Mostly I will live for a month or two. It's even a miracle I survived that blast. It was meant to erase everything. But sadly 'Man wills but God denies'. Here I'm explaining everything to you about everything I have done. Sigh! I would have not injected reality serum overdose in me if I knew this would happen."

Seeing him sad, although he still had some doubts and wanted to ask more about his high recovery, Swallow felt a little guilty to ask more questions about it, but he had to get more information. So he changed the subject.

"Were there any risks?"

"Hmm… risks… cough cough… I would rather call them challenges. If the planet overcame them, it would see the new era, else … well about the risks included the core rejecting the particles, resulting in the blast of reality. The core and thus magnetic field around earth would destabilize, or the core would get over dumping of the particles without any outlet, resulting in *looking at Swallow* the core becoming stationary… well but everything went successfully". Kiel said satisfyingly

Hearing this, he sweated cold sweats.

"Well any more questions??? If not I want my dessert. And I'm ... not a virgin. The reality particles changed my body"

Surprised by the sudden relevation, Swallow replied, "... Alright sir."

2 months later

Kiel was sleeping on a bed with many wires and instruments attached to it. There were many doctors roaming around him taking readings, he was uncomfortable .

Seeing them all finally leaving him alone, he sighed.

"Finally some peace… Emily I did what I promised you. ", imagining the cute and sweet girl of his past, he had a satisfied smile on his face.

Looking around, he took out every auxiliary life instrument attached to him, feeling a pang of darkness slowy overcoming him.

He knew if he closed his eyes, he would never wake up again, but he was feeling tired,and really wanted his final sleep.

Closing his eyes slowly, he said, "Goodbye The world. Hope You can pass my challenge..."

Unknown to Kiel, as he started to loose consciousness, a sage coloured particle separated from its cluster inside his brain and slowly started merging with his dimming concsiousness.
