I am a god-slayer, not your hero.

What are the benefits of unlocking CGs?
This is where the elder brother's teachings come in:
Women don't help my career; they always think about a romantic relationship. No, I only want to be with my brothers; they're a great help to my career!
Mingxian patted Aenesta on the shoulder, "Good luck to you guys, I have something to do, so I can't keep you company."
"Take care." Aeneas waved, then winked and said, "May I ask what's the matter? Are you going on another date with our most popular songstress?"
Mingxian didn't answer, but said with a smile, "Dating is something only children do."
After saying that, he turned into a gust of wind and disappeared.
Aeneasa stood there, tilted her head, then blushed and covered her mouth, muttering softly, "It seems our world has been saved by superfluous emotions."
……
Claudia sighed softly and placed her personal terminal beside her pillow. The silver-white device reflected a faint light in the dim room.
The melodious ringtone sounded, and after a few lingers, a virtual window slowly unfolded before my eyes.
The image of the mother—Isabella—appears on the screen with her signature perfect smile, gentle and distant, like a warm ray of sunshine in winter, both warm and untouchable.
"Long time no see, my darling. I've spoken with him, and he means that your future path is entirely up to you. Whether you follow him to another world or stay in this one, it's all up to you."
His words were elegant, each one like a meticulously crafted work of art, flawless, yet they stirred ripples in Claudia's heart.
Claudia smiled faintly, a hint of desolation flashing in her eyes.
She knew all too well that her mother's so-called "perfect gentleness" was nothing but an act, a glamorous yet fragile disguise.
“Mother, I am not Mingxian’s girlfriend.” Claudia’s voice was gentle, but carried a barely perceptible firmness. “He is just my benefactor.”
Isabella's expression turned puzzled, her brows furrowing slightly, as if she didn't understand the deeper meaning behind her daughter's words.
Claudia continued, "But, Xuanxuan is a very good person and considers me a friend."
Isabella's smile remained unchanged: "That's not important. As long as it's proven that he cares about this world, that's enough. Even if it means submitting to his authority and making him the master of our conglomerate, he can have as many women as he wants."
This is the conclusion reached by these people who will determine the future of the world.
There are people in this world who care about Mingxian.
Therefore, one can take advantage of this to benefit oneself.
However, Mingxian's casual act of creating a black hole and throwing a group of directors into it, along with his previous actions, all demonstrate that he has no goodwill towards the six major conglomerates and no interest in them whatsoever.
Let's take a roundabout approach then.
Let's go for the softer approach.
For those of them who have undergone mental adjustment, it is perfectly acceptable to abandon all the directors above.
Benefit!
Everything is geared towards profit.
It's not just about immediate benefits, but also about more distant ones.
Driven by absolute rationality, all six major conglomerates conceived the idea of "taking advantage of Mingxian."
However, we need to be careful about how to utilize it.
"Just like always."
Claudia smiled bitterly to herself, but on the surface, her smile became even brighter.
“Mother, you seem to have misunderstood. Xuanxuan doesn’t need a girlfriend, he needs his mother.”
His gaze pierced through the screen, reaching deep into the mother's heart.
Isabella's gaze froze instantly, a thin line of light flashing in her eyes.
"What do you want to say?"
"Let me be blunt, he doesn't need 'sex,' he needs 'love.' It's the kind of unconditional, profound love that a mother has for her children."
Claudia's words were like sharp blades, cutting through the air and severing the barriers between them.
“…Then give him love.” Isabella’s tone remained unchanged, without the slightest fluctuation.
Claudia shook her head slightly. "This is neither a deal nor a trick, just a simple reminder."
"Xianxian is actually more responsive to gentle persuasion than force."
"So, it's more practical for you to just ask him directly."
Across the virtual screen, Isabella's eyes flashed with a hint of suspicion and urgency, as if she wanted to penetrate this digital boundary and touch her daughter's real emotional world.
After a long pause, Isabella asked the most important question: "Don't you care if your brother takes over the world?"
I really don't care about that.
It's all fake anyway.
Claudia smiled and said, "Don't you even understand this, Mom? Didn't I tell you? Xuanxuan is my benefactor, and he doesn't want anything except 'love' to make him care a little. So, this cunning woman who is easily swayed by others can only let him 'love' me."
But let's be honest.
Claudia didn't know what Mingxian was trying to do. Although she felt that he was just approaching everything in the world with the mindset of a "gamer," she still did a few things to make him have more fun.
Isabella: "..."
Suddenly, footsteps echoed, and a figure burst into Isabella's office.
"Isabella, you need to take a look at this."
A familiar voice sounded from outside the virtual window, and Claudia instinctively said, "Dad?"
“Claudia is here too…” Nicholas Enfield’s tone softened slightly, then he immediately said, “Take a look at this first.”
Isabella calmly played the video.
This is a video of a battle.
The venue appears to be the Seventh Academy of the Boundary Dragons, where knights clad in white tiger armor control contracted beasts in battle against knights wearing black dragon armor. The battle ends with the collapse of a Boundary Dragons-style arena.
Nicholas explained, "These two knights weren't fighting in another dimension, but in the arena of the Realm Dragon in the real world, which is why we have this video."
He paused for a moment before continuing, "Someone—no, it should be the King of Malice—spread this video all over the world."
"It's nothing, it's all within our control," Isabella said calmly.
Although the plan to "save the world by relying on the Magic King" seems to have failed.
However, the plan to save the world by relying on the Star Lord is still in operation, and everything is under the control of the conglomerate's executives and directors.
"The fact that their battle was exposed to the public is not the problem; the problem lies in the subsequent dialogue!"
Nicholas dragged the progress bar and skipped directly to the later part.
……
In this world dominated by integrated corporate conglomerates, the economically weak are like insignificant pieces on a chessboard.
but.
Even the wealthy don't always have an easy life.
Once you slip, you will fall mercilessly into the abyss of despair.
The once wealthy Wu Xiaohui family fell from grace and was shattered due to a single minor mistake.
Before young Wu Xiaohui could recover from the ordeal, her mother took her to the home of the poor.
That once glorious city.
Despite the dramatic changes in her life, the mother, accustomed to a carefree existence, could not bear the weight of this new life.
She left Wu Xiaohui behind and went to another world alone.
Wu Xiaohui stared blankly at her mother's departing figure, her heart filled with confusion and despair.
He didn't know which way to go in the future, and in his confusion, he collapsed in the place that had once witnessed the glory of his family.
On the banks of the once glorious Qingge River, the ruins of local cities downstream silently recount its past splendor.
The river flows gently, seemingly singing a lament for the city.
Wu Xiaohui's life should have ended abruptly at the tender age of six.
"Little devil, your immortal bones are truly remarkable."
In Wu Xiaohui's hazy consciousness, her voice, though distant, was clearly audible.
"So, are you willing to become mine? I simply can't bear to see such a talented person like you become a corpse on the street. Of course, if you're already desperate and want to die here, I won't force you..."
Wu Xiaohui wanted to respond to her, but found that her throat seemed to be choked, and she could only move her lips slightly.
"It's alright, it's alright, just silently recite it in your heart." The woman's voice was calm and detached, like a clear spring in the mountains, washing away the dust in Wu Xiaohui's heart.
Therefore, Wu Xiaohui called out strongly in her heart.
live.
In that instant, two clear tears slid down his cheeks, like pearls from a broken string.
"Very good, from today onwards, you are mine."
The woman smiled slightly, took out a bamboo tube from somewhere, poured out a drop of water, and gently dripped it into Wu Xiaohui's mouth.
As a result, Wu Xiaohui survived.
She was rescued by "Wang Xiaoyuan," the reincarnation of Fan Xinglu's predecessor, and taken in as a disciple.
As Fan Xinglu's disciple, I have only one obligation—to let her experience the joy of battle, which is to satisfy her.
From this perspective, Wu Xiaohui is unqualified.
Because his fists held no fighting spirit, only gratitude.
As her body collapsed to the ground, Wu Xiaohui was somewhat dazed, as if this scene had happened more than once before.
I think I've lost again...
Why add "again"?
The zither judges the dark armor, now he is the alt of this world—the sentinel of his brother civilization, "Knight Dragon Fang".
