Do the people at the Intellectual Property Administration of Technology understand anything at all? Can't they hire someone competent for the new patent review? I've applied for a patent 16 times already. What a waste of time and energy! How will they reimburse me if someone registers my invention first?

Time is life. They're stealing my money, ruining my life.

I thought the guy with glasses at the patent office would know a thing or two, but I was wrong. He questioned me to my face and said I knew nothing about science. What the heck does he know? I've studied physics for 15 years and wrote Time Tunnel Theory, a 100,000-word book. My invention is based on that theory. He hasn't even read my book, and he has the nerve to doubt me? Childish! Stupid! Shortsighted!

I've been working on this device for quite some time. But two months ago, when the museum opened an exhibit showcasing newly discovered Old World relics, I was 100% sure that time travel might come true. There was a mysterious device called the “600-Kilowatt Diesel Generator,” which was exactly the same machine that appeared in my dreams. With that machine, my device would surely be able to warp time, deform it, cause massive breaks, and create time tunnels.

The prophetic dream perfectly confirmed my theory. In my dream, there was a Geomarrow resonance tunnel hidden in the Underworld. When my time tunnel device is completed, I would definitely be able to achieve time travel there!

Rather than waiting for those fools to review my patent, why don't I raise the money myself to build the device? Right now, I only have the house to mortgage, but it belongs to my father. I don't know if he'll agree to the mortgage, but I'm a little reluctant to do so since we've lived there for many years… No no, what am I saying? If I can create a time tunnel, I'd transform the era! I'd be the modern-day Plamya! How would I shed tears on a house? Let's do it. I'll mortgage the house next week and get my device built.

With my device, I could warp the very fabric of time and control its flow. A place like Belobog wouldn't be befitting for someone like me.

Oh my, I could revolutionize Belobog… No, the entire universe!

Even my father doesn't understand me. Why did I have to born into this family? Can't bear it.

That old dog… It's fine if he didn't want to sell the house, but why did he have to kick me out? I've devoted my life to science… I have no idea how to take care of myself! It's a waste of abilities to learn how to do those menial tasks.

I read in the newspaper that there would be a salon next week for civilian scientists. There may be investors there, so I must go to secure funding. But will the investors understand the main principles behind time tunnels in such a short amount of time? They'd need to do some research beforehand, at least understand the Big Universe Time Tunnel Theory. I'll ask Daniel about the possible investors. If I can get their addresses, I can visit them in advance.

Maybe I should write something to promote myself, just in case…

“The experimental Time Tunnel Generator Device, recognized by the renowned Scientist Professor Isaac, Professor Alfred, and Professor Stephen.” … That sounds good. If I were an investor, I'd definitely be interested. What? It's not despicable of me to throw around those names. Besides, if it weren't for the people at the patent office, these professors would have already seen my invention by now… and recognize my genius, of course!
