My hero is myself

That's the best they can give.

David didn't agree with Sharon, but he understood.

An email rang at his terminal, from Sharon.

That was automatically sent by the personal AI assistant after he confirmed his death.

[Hey, David, it’s a cliché thing to say, but it needs to be said. 】

[When you see this email, I will definitely be gone. 】

[I am alone and have no worries except that little girl. 】

[Yes, she was picked up and has no blood relationship with me. But when I saw her smile, I thought... I don't just know how to kill wild dogs on the battlefield. 】

[I know you don’t like the trouble of raising children, but Delores is really sensible. I just hope you can let her grow up well. 】

[I have no one left to trust. Mercenaries are all potential lunatics, but you are the only one who is not that crazy...]

At the back, there are keys to all Sharon's assets, as well as DeLauris' identity information.

After reading the email, David could confirm that Sharon had anticipated his illness, but he had no choice.

He really has no other ability to enable that pure little girl to maintain her current life.

While you're still trying, try your best.

So the question was put before David.

Do you want to help Sharon raise that child?

Do you want to maintain the high tuition fees and let her continue studying at Sawamura Academy?

Looking at those beautiful report cards, he knew that that little girl worked much harder and was much more sensible than he did back then.

A little girl who has not been able to see her relatives all year round can be ranked among the best in a place like that...

The effort put in is unimaginable, and at the same time it is quite talented.

But now that it is becoming increasingly difficult to take on tasks, can I really afford her expenses?

It paralyzed the brain, but no one made David lose his ability to calculate.

He wandered on the street, feeling weak in his heart.

They tried their best, but there seemed to be no chance to fulfill their brother's last wish...

Although such a wish may only be a meal for the rich.

But there is such a huge disparity between high and low in this world.

Silently, a black high-end floating car stopped in front of David.

He stared at this scene blankly, still unable to react.

The car window rolled down, and a high school girl in school uniform showed him a smile so perfect that no flaws could be found:

"Mr. Martin, you can consider taking on a commission. Revenge can solve all your current worries."

"It also includes a quota and scholarship for a Shrine private academy."

"By the way, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Jingu Jiaye. You can search for this name on your personal terminal."

The girl with black hair and red eyes had a flawless appearance. When David was helpless, it was like an angel came to the world and gave him a glimmer of light.

But David's reason told him that there is no free lunch in the world.

Behind this girl, there seemed to be a tail with an arrow wagging.

Sitting in this kind of car, everyone is the heir of a big family, even if she looks like a pure high school girl...

But inside, there must be a devil that controls people's hearts!

Volume 203: First Entering Kyushu: Chapter [-]: The Beginning of Chaos, the Prelude to a New Order

The city center of the Eternal World is a group of tower-like buildings built around a large central pillar that supports the entire Eternal World and the present world.

The honeycomb-like structure maximizes the use of every inch of space, planning a large number of small apartments ranging from 10 square meters to 50 square meters.

This can be said to be the cheapest residence in the entire world.

After all, the area of ​​​​this layer is only one-tenth of the current world. After being occupied by the major families, the remaining developable land is very valuable.

The large column in the city center had to be built in the middle because of the pyramidal structure of the entire city.

At the same time, it is also the central artery that maintains the operation of Shinto City and the cooling circulation throughout the city. It must operate 24 hours a day.

Naturally, it will bring endless noise, and may also leak odors and toxic and harmful gases.

Therefore, this means that houses in the city center are the least valuable.

Those family manors were built close to the edges and gradually converged towards the center.

Another reason is that Sintong City was built by hollowing out the seabed, and the edge rests on the continental shelf itself.

In case of an accident such as collapse, it is the strongest.

However, this one in the city center is not worth the money, and that is also relatively speaking.

The high-rise residences surrounding the large pillar area are the star project of Sawamura Real Estate, a residential area called Sawamura Tower.

It uses 5% of the area to double the permanent resident population.

Coupled with the planning of many small apartments, it has become the only permanent residence that company employees have the opportunity to buy with their lifetime savings.

Never mind that it has various problems such as noise, pollution, and crowding.

But it’s precisely because of these problems that everyone can afford it, right?

No matter how bad the world is, it is also the world. Coupled with the advertising and marketing of "Young People's First Sky Home" and constant brainwashing propaganda, the Sawamura Tower has become the ultimate goal of many people in the world.

Young people who study hard and sharpen their brains and want to enter a big company.

Parents who work hard to create an ideal environment for their children.

A mercenary who fights in the sea and wants to find ancient ruins and become rich and retire.

All kinds of people in this world save their blood and sweat just to buy an apartment in Zecun Tower and obtain the right of permanent residence in this world.

The relatively low unit price and limited number of units have made the selling price of Zecun Tower rise year after year after its completion.

Sawamura Real Estate's position has become increasingly stable because of its lucrative profits.

Although the manor is nice, it is a dream that people in this world can never touch.

This is not Night City, and there are not so many lucky guys who soar into the sky.

Young people from big families have more resources and connections than you, and they have worked hard in an involutionary environment since they were young...

The road to the ascent has been blocked and the moat has been completed.

Even if the solidified Shinto City has dreams, they are blocked in the sky under the sea and can never be touched, unable to fly too high.

Even a small apartment in Sawamura Tower requires at least 30 years of hard work.

You have to be lucky enough.

Before being drained of all value, he was not eliminated from the bottom position and had the opportunity to rise to the middle level...

Or there are no crazy legendary mercenaries who have been wandering on the edge of danger all year round.

Or, a young female host who is beautiful enough and scheming enough?

"Today is Mrs. Sawamura's 60th birthday. She likes the drizzle weather."

"Chairman Sawamura, who loves her deeply, specially applied for a three-hour spring rain from the Meteorological Administration."

"I believe that every citizen bathing in the rain can feel the deep love between their husband and wife..."

On the screen, the sweet-looking female host wrapped herself in a tight-fitting professional skirt, her hot figure was impacting reality, and talked about the love story behind today's rain.

It is different from the scalding sea water leaking out in today's world, which contains algae spores and parasites, which may cause illness, and most people avoid it.

The rain in Changshi is filtered pure water that can be drank directly and is guaranteed to cause no harm to the human body.

Therefore, faced with the rare rainfall in the city, many children took to the streets out of curiosity to experience the cool and moist air.

You know, even three hours of drizzle is a resource that only a big family can apply for.

Pure water of this level could be sold for several hundred yuan a bottle in this world.

Usually ideal parents buy it for their children under five years old.

Because only this kind of water, free of impurities, pollution and radioactive substances, can ensure that children will not mutate during their development.

Only if there are no deformities in appearance and no malignant mutations in the body can one be qualified to work and live in the ordinary world.

Otherwise, no matter how talented or weird-looking you are, you can't put it down to scare the gentlemen.

So this rain is both a love story and a story of power.

Affectionate style is just a dream created for common people and idiots.

Chairman Sawamura has a romantic streak and the number of illegitimate children he has exposed has reached double digits, making him a timeless talking point in the entire upper class circle.

However, for such a beautiful host, no matter what she is talking about, many people can listen to it with interest.

She is extremely charming, and every angle of her smile is carefully designed.

Appropriate makeup, jewelry and fashion that highlight her temperament, and a sense of design that exceeds her status.

That kind of charm that almost overflows the screen, unparalleled affinity, and also the taste of money:

Someone must have funded her, given her the highest level of investment, and undergone a lot of fine-tuning surgeries and training to create such an almost perfect image.

In the narrow and dark alley under Sawamura Tower, David sat on the street, bathing in the luxurious and harmless rainwater, biting into rice balls from the convenience store.

He recognized the female host on the screen and showed an expression that seemed like he was from another world:

"Her original name was Winnie, right? I remember we were sitting at the same table at that time and participated in a design project together... Damn it, I can't even remember it. It's only right that I proposed the project!"

An electronic synthesizer sound lacking in emotional ups and downs filled in the information that David had forgotten:

"Verification of the Minimum Material Cycle Long-term Yacht... The reference object is an old-time RV, which is used by petty bourgeoisie who like to travel around the ocean and want to leave Shinto City temporarily. It was favored by a director of Sawamura Company at the time."

"Oh, was I so romantic back then? Wait, Instructor Yongsin, you are still here. I thought that after leaving the company, you wouldn't keep spying on me."

David couldn't help but curl his lips.

The electronic synthesized voice in his ears still stated calmly:

"First, everything in Changshide is under my tentacles. Second, this is not voyeurism. After signing the agreement, you have no right to privacy. Third, if it weren't for your limited combat power, I wouldn't want to invest in computing power. Always on you.”

"Oh, I was just joking. You AI, which doesn't understand humor, looks like an antique!"

David, who was exposed, was a little embarrassed. He hurriedly avoided the topic and asked what shortcomings he would have in his next actions.

Eternal sin, that is, Roland's answer is only one word:

and so on.

Waiting for Windsor to return to the apartment with the financial backer behind her, Sawamura Uhei...

This is when David, the chess piece, shines.

"Yes, instructor." David did not refute.

After being trained so hard by Roland these days, he had completely lost his temper and deeply recognized his coach's ability.

Although the process is painful, it is also rewarding.

Two months ago, David signed the agreement after a brief conversation with Kamiya Jiaye.

He knew that being a mercenary had its limits, so he stopped being a mercenary.

Even if you accept a female high school student as your master and become the family dog, it will be an excellent opportunity to go ashore.

After all, she gave too much.

Every offer was irresistible to David.

After signing the agreement, Delores successfully transferred to another school.

David also quit the mercenary group and underwent surgery at a private clinic under the name of Jingu Jiaye, implanting a complete set of the latest model of biochemical prostheses, a masterpiece of Jingu creatures.

The most notable feature is that it allows him to possess superhuman combat power while still maintaining the size of an ordinary human being.
