Story

Zex wakes up early on Wakusai, ready to start his day. He looks out the window and sees the sunrise over the beautiful landscape. He takes a deep breath, feeling grateful for another day on this planet. But he also knows that there is a lot of work to be done. As the owner of the Threemarket, Zex has a responsibility to run his supermarket in a sustainable way. He checks his inventory and ensures that he only orders as much as his customers need, using the data collected by Sebas’s software. He also checks the expiration dates and donates any soon-to-be-expired food to local shelters and food banks. Zex walks around his store in the morning, ensuring everything is in order. He talks to his employees, making sure they are all trained in sustainable practices and aware of the importance of reducing food waste. He also checks the energy usage and makes sure all the equipment is running efficiently.


Zex’s efforts have paid off, and Threemarket has been able to reduce food waste on Wakusai by 90%. Zex believes that it is his responsibility to make sure that the food produced on Wakusai is used efficiently and does not go to waste. However, Zex’s passion for sustainability and reducing waste does not stop there. He also wants to help those in need on Wakusai and Earth. At night, Zex becomes a hero in secrecy. Because he transports all the leftover food from the Threemarket to Earth to ensure that humans in need have enough to eat, he developed an extra system for that to make sure that his food can also materialise on Earth. But no one knows about this since it is not an official system. Zex does not seek recognition for his acts of kindness, and on Earth, his identity is unknown, and it will stay that way.  


Zex’s life is busy as he balances his responsibilities as the owner of Threemarket and his secret identity. However, he is driven by his passion for sustainability and helping those in need. He believes that it is his duty to ensure that the resources on Wakusai are used efficiently and that everyone has enough to eat. Zex’s efforts have not gone unnoticed on Wakusai, and his commitment to sustainability and generosity has inspired many Wakusailings. Zex is not only a successful businessman, but he is also a hero who positively impacts his community and beyond. As he goes to bed, he thinks about the next day and how he can continue to make a difference.
