Years Ago And The Term Old age.

.....

[Ace POV],

Looking at my 'Masterpiece,' I couldn't help but recall the history lessons I had as a child.

According to history, the birth of the first artificially intelligent robot coincided with the birth of a genius named Callen Night.

Aside from the fact that Callen was born wealthy, his story is similar to that of most geniuses.

Callen had a passion for mechanical engineering since he was a child, and when his parents noticed this, they encouraged him by sending him to a branch school under the royal academy of an empire that specialized in mechanical engineering.

The empires had already been formed then.

It was there that the world first heard the name Callen Night.

New machines, new inventions, and alterations to old machines

Callen's longest drop was two years for an invention.

It had never been more than two years.

He was a genius only seen once in a century, but he died of old age, like the others who came before him.

But here's the part that went down in history alongside him.

The arrival of a new genius.

A decade after Callen's death, there were numerous technological and mechanical engineering breakthroughs, but none were significant enough to shock the world.

Another genius was born around this time.

A girl born into a farming family.

Tethys Heart.

Her family could not afford to send her to a private school, unlike Callen Night, so she had to settle for a public school.

But that didn't stop the young genius from becoming well-known throughout the world.

Tethys had already mastered many laws far beyond her age at the age of eight, which drew the attention of the top scientists, who took her in and sponsored her until she was thirteen.

Tethys was already among the youngest people to graduate from university at this age.

Not wanting to waste this brilliant mind, world leaders sent her to a royal research institute that specialized in medicine, Tethys' strong suit.

And, just like her predecessors, major medical breakthroughs occurred.

Illnesses thought to be incurable were cured, and medicines that worked like miracles appeared.

Tethys was responsible for a 45% reduction in the number of deaths caused by illness worldwide.

She, like Callen Night, was a genius seen only once in a century.

When Tethys retired and married, it was expected that while other things would make advances in their fields, nothing major that would rock the world would appear.

While nothing major occurred, this was due to the fact that the geniuses born at this time were too young.

The great-granddaughter of Callen Night and the son of Tethys Heart.

Ella Night and Chris Heart.

This pair of geniuses were also born in the same year.

Perhaps, as people used to say back then;

"Genes evolve as they are passed down through generations."

Perhaps it was true, but the way fate handled it made it even better.

Born in the same year, they attended the same school and ended up becoming friends rather than best friends.

These two geniuses, like their forefathers, were discovered at a very young age, but unlike their forebears, who only majored in one thing, these two were smart in almost everything.

Not everything, but they knew a lot.

They were sent to the royal academy to study general science with their family's support, and when the kids grew up, they would choose the part they would major in, but things did not go as planned.

Ella and Chris had known each other since they were children, so they banded together because they only knew each other in this strange new place and quickly became best friends.

They both graduated from university at the age of 14 and were supposed to look for work, but Ella and Chris were not going to follow the norms.

Instead, they used their family's support to establish a private research company and conduct research on topics of interest to them.

The world was thrown into chaos shortly after this occurred.

New technology was invented, and old technology was modified.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the decades they spent researching things made Earth look similar to the sci-fi films that people watched back then.

Unfortunately, they both died of old age.

At least, they married and had children before dying, and after their deaths, some breakthroughs were enough to shake the world as a result of their hard work.

And technology continued to improve decades later because new generations used what Callen Night, Tethys Heart, Ella Night Heart, and Chris Heart left for them.

These were geniuses who were only supposed to appear once in a century, and these four appeared in such a short period on spe that they caused such a drastic improvement to the people on planet spe that the humans at the time began referring to the years before Callen night's birth as the 'old age.'

That is how the term "old age" originated.

As I waited for the monster, I thought to myself that I was very fortunate to have learned the ways of the old age because it might help me in whatever was going on here.
