Tony slowly closed his eyes. Everything around him seemed to fall silent as his thoughts surged like a tide, and he began to look back on his life.
In his youth, Tony had been like a dazzling star, quickly making a name for himself with his extraordinary talent and genius.
His name had spread throughout the academic world and the field of innovative invention, and people had been filled with admiration and expectations for the young genius.
However, as time passed and Tony reached adulthood, he gradually sank into a whirlpool of rebellion and depravity.
The spirited boy who had once carried dreams in his heart had become reckless and unrestrained, losing himself.
He had turned away from the right path, chasing momentary thrills and vanity, squandering his talents on meaningless things.
Now, with his life nearing its end, Tony's heart was filled with regret and helplessness. He thought of all the words he had never spoken and the emotions he had kept buried deep inside.
He thought of all the things he had always wanted to try and accomplish, but because of cowardice and hesitation, he had never taken action.
"What a boring life!"
"I never got the chance to say what I wanted to say, and I didn't even have the guts to do what I wanted to do. What a shame..."
Tony wished more than anything that time could turn back so he could make up for everything.
"Is this the start of your life flashing before your eyes, Tony?"
A voice filled with amusement rang out.
Tony suddenly opened his eyes, and a figure clad in golden armor appeared beside him.
"Kino!!!"
A huge fireball appeared in the sky. Its dazzling light instantly illuminated the entire pitch-black night sky until it was as bright as day.
