"Giving up would be entirely too boring. It's not a challenge then, is it?" Senku chuckled to himself. "By that metric, I suppose I am."

He softened his expression slightly. "I appreciate the sentiment, but if it's any comfort to you, most places are moving onward, technology is pulling itself to about the mid 1900s as an overall average, with significant blips of improvement based on the field. There are also many places that are beginning to look a lot like they used to. It's just the borders are likely to all be redrawn, even at a city level. Not as much overcrowding, perhaps."

Senku hummed. "I am looking forward to having indoor plumbing in my house again, that will be nice. It was pretty low on my priority list before, but should be coming about soon enough. We have some facsimile of it at the lab."
