It's been three days since the dwarf and his human companion set up a stall of sorts. He did not know what they were doing, but people kept giving them glances, so even mocking them, throwing rotten tomatoes at the dwarf
Despite all this, he still didn't give up his smile.

Katsumata Yūto was an avid researcher from a very young age.
When he was born, his parents were very shocked when he ca. Expecting him to cry, they were very, very shocked and surprised when he ca out with a stern face, ants crossed in his chest. Although shocked, his parents nevertheless poured their love and affection towards him.
Growing up, his high IQ was soon slowly revealed to his parents.
At the age of 6 months, he could walk on his own without the need for a walker.
At the age of 1, he could speak fluent Japanese, in all dialects
At the age of 5, he morised 10 different languages, and they were the difficult ones.
At the age of 10, he mastered advanced physics and began researching quantum physics.
At the age of 11...
At the age of 12...
And so on and on and on...
He was so intelligent, it seed that nothing was out of his reach. But it was because of this he beca bored.
Bored of life
It got so bad that he nearly ended up clunking school, believing that everything was worthless.
Yet one thing saved him
One day, while watching the television, he ca across a docuntary. A docuntary about space, a docuntation about the ESA,
A docuntary about Simon Brown
Intrigued, he kept watching it. As he kept watching, he beca enamoured with him. He saw how, despite losing everything, he strove towards his goal of going to space, and when that failed, helping others reach there.
This reignited his passion, his reason to live.
Now with a goal in mind, he began studying anything and everything that he could get his hands on. He had a new goal, and that was to help humanity in any way possible, whether it be creating a cure for cancer or creating subrsibles to go to the Mariana Trenches.
But it all ca to a screeching halt...
One day, when walking across the street, he saw how a truck ca barrelling through the road.
And in the middle of it was a child, a child who did not notice that a truck was coming to kill her.
Without any hesitation, he leapt onto the road, pushing the child away, but at the cost of his life.
But what he did not know was that shortly after, both parties disappeared into thin air.

Reminiscing about his past life, he realised why he liked the dwarf. It wasn't because of his so-called 'inventions'. No, it was because he reminded him of...
Himself.
Upon this realisation, he knew he had reached an answer. An answer that put him in...
Peace
