Become a powerful person of shadow in the new world

"Huh, come back to life."

After devouring two sandwiches and licking the crumbs from her hands, the girl in front of her showed an unsatisfied expression.

"Thank you, senior. You must be a student of Caihai School too. Ah, I forgot to introduce myself. I am a new transfer student from Caihai School in the first grade. My name is..."

"Himeira Yukina, right."

After filling her stomach, the girl immediately expressed her gratitude to Sid. She seemed to be a good boy.

"Senior, do you know me?!"

The conversation was interrupted, and a look of doubt and vigilance appeared on the girl's face. She subconsciously placed her hand on the guitar case next to her, but quickly realized that this behavior was inappropriate and put it down.

That’s right. It’s normal for someone you don’t know to show up and treat you to a meal when you’re about to starve to death. Maybe he’s met a good person and he can call you by your name accurately, so you need to be suspicious. Is the other party a good person?

"How should I put it? This explanation is a bit complicated, so before I answer this question, let me ask you a question first. How many days have you been hungry? Your answer will determine how much my conscience hurts."

Faced with Ji Hiiragi Xuena's inquiry, Sid lay face down on the table and weakly asked Ji Hiiragi Xuena.

"This, this, three, three days."

Sid lay on the table ashen, but he still spoke again without giving up.

"Because of what?"

"I lost my wallet."

"How much money did you lose?"

"20 zenis."

When answering this question, Ji Hiiragi turned his head to the other side and his face turned slightly red. After all, he had been hungry for three days because of this, and it was quite embarrassing that he fainted from hunger in the end.

"I see."

After hearing these answers, Sid gave up completely and confirmed that the girl in front of him was the owner of the wallet he picked up a few days ago, and he accepted his fate honestly.

Looking up from the table, Sid took out two gold coins from his wallet. One gold coin was worth one hundred thousand zenis.

"Give you."

"Hey, no need, senior. My living expenses will arrive in a few days. I can just hold on for a few more days. There is no need to trouble senior."

Girl... no, it should be Ji Hiiragi Yukina who seemed to take Sid's behavior as if he wanted to lend her money, and quickly waved her hands to say no.

After placing the two gold coins on the table, Sid put his right hand on his forehead and watched Ji Hiiragi Xuena speak.

"You misunderstood, this is your money."

"my money?"

Ji Hiiragi Xuena was confused by Sid's words. After thinking for a while, she seemed to have thought of something.

"Could it be that you, senior, are..."

"Yes, I'm the one who found your wallet."

"Eh!?"

With that said, Sid took out a white wallet from his backpack, raised his head and saw the unnatural expression on Ji Hiiragi Xuena's face.

"You...shouldn't you have thought of me as someone else just now?"

"No no no no."

Hearing Sid's question, Ji Hiiragi Xuena quickly shook his head in denial.

"Forget it, it doesn't matter who you think I am, let's talk about compensation."

"Compensation?"

"Yes, compensation, whatever you want, as compensation for starving you for three days, I will pay you whatever you want, please forgive me."

Sid never thinks of himself as a good person. This can be seen from the fact that most of his shadow funds come from thieves. His behavior is essentially the same as that of thieves. The difference is that thieves rob civilians. He robs thieves and is a gangster. Eat black.

He might help the civilians who had their property stolen from them because of occasional encounters, but he would not always do this. After all, he was not a messenger of justice.

He would not take the initiative to kill innocent people and rob civilians, but he would kill thieves and rob the thieves of their wealth. If you think about it carefully, this is quite hypocritical, isn't it?

He himself felt the same way, but if he couldn't do it, he couldn't do it. If he had to give a reason, a person with shadow strength would degenerate into a third-rate villain because of money. What kind of person was he with shadow strength?

Sid and Shadow are one person and two people, because he is not schizophrenic, he is just a middle-aged man. Sid and Shadow Sid have always been disguises for Sid who wants to become a powerful person of shadow.

A person picked up a wallet containing a lot of money on the road, but did not take the initiative to find the owner because of the greed in his heart. It is normal, right? It is human nature.

Let me ask you a question, do you think this person has some mysterious identity in the shadows?

Of course I don't think so.

Yes, he wanted others to think that Sid, the sidekick, was ordinary, but not that way.

He wanted others to think that this person was very ordinary and could not be the legendary Shadow no matter how he thought about it. The contrast created by this was what he wanted.

Rather than letting others think that someone who could do such despicable things could be the legendary Shadow, he might be some low-grade villain.

He doesn't care about the rumors others make about him, because if it's false, it's false, but what happened today is true. If one day his identity is revealed, what happened today will be devastating to his identity as a shadow power user. of blow.

and…

Sid glanced at Ji Hiiragi Xuena, who looked pale because he hadn't eaten for several days.

Just think of it as his aching conscience, and as long as you don't say too outrageous a price, he'll just spend the money to buy a lesson.

It seemed that there was too much information received at once, and Ji Hiiragi Xuena's head couldn't accept it. It took a while to figure out what happened, and she couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.

"Senior, he is a good person."

???

No, are you blind? Everyone says that I am a good person, which makes me doubt whether I am a good person now.

"So, you forgive me."

Thinking so, Sid had a different tone of voice.

"Well, I forgive you, senior."

Not knowing that the man in front of her was secretly doubting whether she was blind, Ji Hiiragi Xuena nodded slightly.

"Then...compensation?"

"No, senior has already returned the money to me, so I haven't lost anything... No, I suddenly feel that I need something as compensation."

Sid, who was originally relieved because Ji Hiiragi Xuena said in the first part of the sentence that there would be no compensation, felt excited again when he heard the second part of the sentence.

Although he felt that Ji Hiiragi Xuena's disturbing behavior was very bad, it was his fault after all, so Sid was still mentally prepared.

"What do you want?"

"Please make it up to me with a sandwich. I wasn't full just now."

Shaking the wrapping paper in her hand, Ji Hiiragi Yukina smiled playfully, giving people a very cute feeling.

"this one?"

Completely unaware of Ji Hiiragi's cuteness now, Sid looked at Ji Hiiragi's Snow Na in disbelief.

"Yes, that's it. Do you have any questions? Senior."

Nodding, Ji Hiiragi Xuena asked Sid.

"That's no problem. I should say it's too simple. It's just that I can't believe you forgive me so easily."

"Okay, okay, I have forgiven senior, but senior can't do it again in the future."

Sid looked directly at Ji Hiiragi Xuena for the first time, and the two looked at each other.

"Senior, what are you doing?"

Ji Hiiragi Xuena blushed when Sid stared at her and subconsciously shifted her gaze.

After a long time, Sid was sure that Ji Hiiragi Xuena really didn't care that he made her hungry for three days, because he didn't see a trace of resentment in Ji Hiiragi Xuena's eyes.

"Okay, I have reservations about you just saying I'm a good guy, but you are a good boy."

"Eh!!!???"

After saying that, ignoring the confused Ji Hiiragi Xuena, Sid walked straight to the front desk.

"Hello, if I remember correctly, if you buy something with VIP status here, you will get an extra couple's package."

Coincidentally, the waiter standing at the front desk was the same waiter he met last time when he came with Haise Xia Yin. At this moment, his eyes were sweeping back and forth between Sid and Himiragi Yukina.

"Hmm...yes, sir, this...this is the couple's package that comes with it, please accept it."

Ignoring the waiter, who had clearly misunderstood something and looked like a scumbag on his face, Sid walked to his original position carrying the two complimentary sandwiches.

After the original weird atmosphere was lifted, the two of them, one a transfer student who had been trained in a special institution since childhood, and the other a high school sophomore from the world during the First Industrial Revolution, quickly started chatting.

Chapter 26 Families and Kings

"Oh oh oh, so senior came here to get rid of the family and start his own business through his own efforts?"

Ji Hiiragi Xuena's eyes were wide open and her mouth was slightly open, with obvious curiosity.

"Absolutely, but my family actually doesn't do anything bad to me. This is just a forced act."

Walking on the road, Sid pretended to be helpless and explained to Ji Hiiragi Xuena.

"Being forced to be helpless?"

Faced with Ji Hiiragi Xuena's doubts, Sid thought for a while and spoke about his specific situation.

"Yes, I have no choice but to do so. My family is not a big noble. There is only one head of the family. The remaining heirs will most likely go out to get married. The position of the head of the family has basically been reserved by my sister, but I don't want to go out. With marriage, we can only work hard to improve our strength and strive to stand on our own."

"Senior, why don't you want to get married? What if the marriage partner is a beautiful woman? Isn't it said that the daughters of nobles are all beauties?"

Sid looked at Ji Hiiragi Xuena who was walking aside with a speechless expression.

"How could such a good thing happen to me? You know, the selection of family heads does not distinguish between men and women. This means that most family heads are basically the best ones in that family. This leads to everyone's default that the family heads are higher than those who are not family heads. Half level.

In this case, the remaining heirs decide whether to marry into the family or marry a wife, to live in a family or to marry someone based on the power of both parties and the situation of their own heirs.

Nobles, they all know it. Except for the position of the head of the family, people are really selected based on their talent. For other positions, they are either based on their background, money, or other things.

Basically, the one with the superior family background has the first choice in the marriage. After all, for the family, as long as you can achieve the purpose of marriage and serve as a link between the forces of both parties, it really makes no difference who marries whom.
