I am a god-slayer, not your hero.

Sunlight, like fine threads, pierced through the sparse clouds and spilled onto the training ground. The first thing that caught the eye was Amagiri Haruka's focused figure as she practiced her sword. The sword light shone like a dragon, dancing with the girl's determination and perseverance.

Ophelia sat quietly to the side.

"What an amazing combination," Mingxian thought to himself, a smile playing on his lips. "How did you all end up together?"

"Welcome back."

Tengu suddenly turned around and chuckled softly.

Laughter is like a spring breeze, warm yet refreshing.

She stopped wiping her sword, casually wiping the sweat from her forehead. Due to long hours of training, her thin clothes clung to her skin, vaguely outlining the fair, jade-like skin on her chest, with a slight blush.

Ophelia nodded slightly upon hearing this.

"Welcome back."

As she spoke, she rose and slowly walked toward the zither, as light as a feather falling to the ground without stirring up any dust.

Stopping a few steps away from him, Ophelia opened her arms and gave Mingxian a warm hug.

Feeling Ophelia's slender yet firm back, Mingxian couldn't help but stroke her hair, his movements gentle and full of affection, as if he were comforting a frightened little animal, trying to soothe her inner unease.

At this moment, Amagiri Haruka explained, "Master showed a little bit of his power, which frightened the people from the Unified Enterprise Group quite a bit."

"They hold real power in the world, but they are afraid of war."

"The master alone can launch a world-destroying war, so they intend to turn a blind eye to all of the master's actions."

“I told them directly that Ophelia was the master’s girlfriend, and they immediately lifted all restrictions on her.”

Ophelia released the string and nodded slightly. "Diluc said I can go wherever I want."

Diluc Ebelvan was once Ophelia's guide in life. For Ophelia, who succumbed to fate, no one mattered as long as someone could point her in the right direction.

Afterwards, Ophelia will act in accordance with "fate".

Although it was fate, Ophelia did not commit any heinous crimes. She simply participated in the "King Dragon Star Martial Festival" to demonstrate her power and increase Diluc's leverage.

The only thing that could be considered excessive was that at the beginning, due to Hilda's experiment, the power went out of control and destroyed the entire laboratory, along with the conglomerate's troops.

Upon hearing the name, Mingxian said, "Diluc, it seems he's the one who transferred the card box to you. Did he have some kind of wish?"

Ophelia shook her head: "I don't know."

Mingxian: "..."

That's quite a detached attitude.

It feels like this person was just coasting before, although they're pretty much still doing so now.

It's just that the feeling of "It's so painful, I can only give up" has changed to "I'm so happy, it's good enough if I just give up like this in my life".

Forget it.

As long as she's happy.

Tengoro adjusted his glasses and continued, "Regarding Master's previous matter, the highest-ranking officer of 'Galaxy' wishes to meet with you."

"The highest-ranking official?" Mingxian's mind raced, and he immediately found the relevant memory, "Claudia's mother?"

“Isabella Enfield.” Amagiri Haruka nodded slightly, explaining, “The current highest-ranking officer of ‘Galaxy’ married the son of the Enfield family, and subsequently rose rapidly to become the highest-ranking officer. She underwent mental rehabilitation and has absolutely no personal feelings for anyone.”

Mingxian nodded slightly. "It sounds like Claudia and Isabella have a very bad relationship."

"Very bad."

Amagiri Haruka said with certainty, "Claudia is a very sentimental person. She regards emotions as her spiritual pillar and refuses to adjust her mindset. Moreover, 'Pandora' was given to Claudia by Isabella."

Mingxian: "Truly a loving mother and a filial daughter."

This is what family dynamics are like on a tokusatsu (special effects) film set!

Amagiri Haruka was indifferent to the death of her biological father, while Claudia plotted to harm her mother.

filial piety!

That's such a filial act!

"Alright, Claudia has been busy doing all this, and although she hasn't been of much help, she gave me two alt accounts, and it's quite fun playing with them together."

Separating "Dragon Fang" and "Dragon Roar String" does indeed provide more room for maneuver.

They can prove each other.

By using his god-slayer power to endorse "Brother Civilization," he can also have a good time toying with these conglomerate tycoons.

However, the conglomerate made a slight mistake.

The so-called integrated corporate conglomerate is actually a super corporation formed by countless enterprises, wealthy families, nobles and companies that formed an alliance after the apocalypse caused by the falling star shower, taking advantage of the decline in national organizational power.

However, there are some differences in the "enterprises" within the unified corporate conglomerate.

For example, the "enterprises" that "Jielong" integrates are local sects and guilds in East Asia, while the "enterprises" that "Saint Mary's Rope" integrates are technology companies that survived the old era.

"The upper levels united before the lower levels did."

The strings plucked softly, a gentle whisper, like a breeze brushing the treetops, instantly vanishing from the training ground without a trace.

In the blink of an eye, he appeared mysteriously on the round table, his feet lightly stepping on the enormous table as if it were nothing more than a light feather beneath his feet.

Thirty pairs of eyes, belonging to the top executives of the six integrated corporate conglomerates, all looked up in unison, their pupils reflecting the unexpected intruders, their hearts filled with astonishment and confusion.

How did he manage to bypass all the defenses and sneak into this heavily guarded conference room undetected?

Before the question could even leave his lips, a dark figure shot towards Mingxian like an arrow released from a bow. At the same time, the security forces hidden in the shadows surged out like a tide, determined to nip this uninvited guest in the bud.

However, faced with this overwhelming offensive, the power of the chanting rippled gently, like ripples on the surface of a lake.

Immediately afterwards, the world seemed to be under a spell; the entire space distorted, becoming blurry and illusory, like an elaborately woven dream, making it impossible to distinguish between reality and illusion.

The guards who rushed forward only felt the scene before them distort and change, and before they could react, their bodies had already involuntarily fallen to the ground.

Everything happened so quickly that Mingxian's figure barely moved an inch.

"what happened?"

The "Boundary Dragon" officer was somewhat bewildered; he simply couldn't understand what had happened in that instant.

A woman lying on the ground struggled to lift her head.

"The pull of fate."

Mingxian then looked at him and realized that the other person looked somewhat familiar. He waved his hand, and a virtual window immediately appeared, displaying the other person's information.

Helga Lindova, also known as the "Witch of Time".

The founder and current captain of the Star Hunter Guard, known as the strongest witch in Asterisk's history, is a super powerhouse who won the "King Dragon Star Martial Arts Festival" twice half a century ago. Through years of training, she has developed overwhelming combat abilities and can hold her own against Fan Xinglu.

They possess the ability to control time around them, thus freely changing their appearance and age. They often use this ability to alter their appearance to carry out the duties of the security team.

By altering the body's timeline, even severe injuries can be recovered in an instant.

At this moment, she manipulated time to restore her severely injured body, slowly stood up, but that was all; she showed no intention of continuing the fight.

“Impressive, you figured it out already?” Mingxian looked at Helga.

Helga said calmly, "A period of time was lost, the process was skipped, and the result was taken directly. Is this what is called advanced spiritual energy?"

“It’s just a simple application,” Mingxian explained. “Relying on his spirit that transcends fate, he forms the gravitational pull of fate, directly defeating the weak in the law of causality, that is, skipping the process and directly arriving at the result.”

Helga: "That sounds really cruel."

Mingxian: "The corrective power of your world is too weak."

The corrective force of fate will protect human history.

In a world with powerful corrective forces, this method, which relies on its own immense magical power to generate "fate gravity," skips the process and directly arrives at the result.

Corrective forces can either prevent or protect certain individuals with strong destinies.

Godslayers and disobedient gods are not included in this list.

A god-slayer-level gravity force could essentially annihilate all mortals on Earth.

"Alright." Mingxian then looked at Isabella. "You're the one who wanted to see me, right?"

“Claudia is considered one of my reserve employees, so I’m giving you the right to speak with me. You can use your experience from your long struggles in the power arena to talk to me.”

"This is your only chance."

"Cherish it."

All thirty people present sat quietly, except for Isabella, who maintained a smile. "My daughter has really found a good home, so I don't have to worry anymore."

Although her expression and tone of voice were like those of a mother who cares about her daughter.

But everyone present knew it was fake.

After undergoing rigorous mental adjustment, Isabella no longer has any personal feelings; she is now merely a social and negotiation tool.

Mingxian stood on the round wooden table, looking down at Isabella, quietly watching her performance.

Isabella said, "May I ask what your plans are for my daughter? Do you want her to stay in this world, or leave this world with you? As parents, we always have to be prepared."

Helga, who was standing next to her, curled her lip.

That's a really impressive person.

He subtly blended the information he wanted into everyday family matters, as if he were concerned about his daughter's future.

In fact, by linking Claudia and Naruhira together and asking about Naruhira's plans, they were testing why Naruhira came to this world and what his plans were, as well as what benefits the conglomerate could gain or what losses it might suffer.

In response, Mingxian said in a serious tone, "I also have some worries."

"I originally came to this world just to hunt, but the environment here is so terrible that I can't even wait quietly for the hunt to begin. I got involved in some strange things."

"I also have a lovely fiancée in world 492."

"I have a girlfriend in this world again."

"It feels a bit difficult to explain."

"Interpersonal relationships suddenly became complicated, and with my girlfriend and fiancée also having families, it became even more difficult to manage."

"I am a person who has received higher education in the 21st century."

"I also have some troubles when it comes to these kinds of interpersonal relationships."
