I, without any personality, become a hero!

At that moment, the truck driver who hit the mushroom-like alien also stopped and came over. Although Leo had kindly wanted to help the alien get to the hospital, he ended up being given a half-eaten hamburger, and the matter was left unresolved.

Back home, Leo handed the packaged donuts to Shinobu, who was beaming with joy. He also took out a hamburger and started eating, but after about half of it, he stopped and asked Shinobu, who was eating a donut beside him, a question:

"Why do you like donuts so much? Wouldn't a hamburger be more convenient to fill your stomach...?"

"You stupid servant, there's no reason why I like a certain food. I simply like donuts!"

"All right......"

Everyone has their favorite and least favorite foods. You can't use your own standards to judge other people's preferences. For example, some people like sweet tofu pudding, while others like savory tofu pudding. In the past, this almost sparked a war between sweet and savory tofu pudding lovers. But in the end, it all comes down to differences in the taste of the same favorite food.

"Oh! By the way—I need to go out in a bit, are you staying home or coming with me?"

“Foolish servant, is my home not in your shadow?”

"Well......."

Little did Leo know that after Shinobu made his shadow her home, he was now torn between tears and laughter, feeling that he would never be able to get rid of this troublesome brat.

Leo went to the hospital. Five days had passed since he was captured by the "Vampire King" and transformed into a Blood Realm Familiar. During this time, he had not visited Xiaobai. Only now did Leo realize that he had been seriously injured.

First, he successfully bought some gifts, and then, before it got completely dark, Leo rushed to the hospital, where he saw Xiaobai chatting and laughing with a blond boy wearing glasses.

Awkward...extremely awkward. Leo, seeing this scene, was completely speechless. At this moment, Shiro noticed Leo's arrival and immediately exclaimed happily:

"Leo, you've finally arrived! I thought you'd accidentally died inside 'Helsaremz Roth'."

"I'm not that easy to die!"

Leo instinctively started criticizing Shiro, and only then did he muster the courage to ask the girl a question.

"Um... who is this?"

"My brother!"

"Huh? Brother!!"

"Yes! 'William Macbeth,' you can just call him Little Black."

Only then did Leo realize that the person in front of him was his "brother-in-law." In his confusion, Leo didn't know what to do. At this moment, the blond boy named Xiao Hei gently extended his right hand to Leo.

"Nice to meet you! Leonardo Watch... Little White told me a lot about you."

"Ah! -- Hello... hello..."

Leo was afraid of saying the wrong thing and offending his "brother-in-law," so he was a little flustered. At this moment, Xiaobai asked him a question in a strange way.

"Kuro, didn't that Mr. Midoriya say he'd take you to meet Leo last time?"

"Huh? Mr. Midoriya... is that true?"

"Well......."

Leo, bewildered, and Xiao Hei, unsure how to begin, were quite embarrassed. Meanwhile, Xiao Bai waved his hand as if it didn't matter.

"It's fine that we met last time since we didn't meet, but today is a good opportunity to explain why the two of you know each other."

Although they didn't know what had happened, Leo and Xiao Hei breathed a sigh of relief, having managed to get away with it. Just then, an inappropriate voice rang out.

"Kukuku! My servant, did you rush to the hospital just to see this girl?"

"........"

Stiffly turning around, Leo discovered that Shinobu, who had been hiding in his shadow, had somehow emerged and was staring at Shiro with great interest.

Leo felt like his heart was bleeding and he wanted to curse, which is why he didn't want to take care of "Shinobu Oshino"—he was afraid of this situation happening... because of the brat's mischief, his romance would end before it even started. How tragic!

"Oh dear! Another adorable child has arrived. Leo, where did you kidnap this time!?"

However, Shiro's ability to accept things was as strong as ever. The twin-tailed girl picked up Shinobu directly, ignoring her struggles and resistance, just like the last time with Abigail... She rubbed the cute child against her like a giant teddy bear.

"Hahaha... She's a child a relative asked me to look after. She'll be living with me for a while. Her name is Shinobu Oshino... She's a bit of a chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) type, but you can just call her Shinobu-chan."

Leo, who decisively betrayed the "Vampire King" for his own love, saw a certain blonde girl being hugged and rubbed against by Xiaobai before she could even refute him... It seems that everything is going quite smoothly.

Chapter 39 Meaningless Rant

"To fully become a Blood Realm Kin, you will undergo a total of 13 ritual transformations. With each ritual, the degree of corruption on your body will deepen, and you will become more and more distant from the human realm."

"Leo, your current level is 12, which means that apart from your heart, which is still human, the rest of your body has almost transcended the realm of human existence."

"Um... Mr. Abrams, could you explain it in simpler terms?"

Inside the headquarters of "Libra," Leo is being instructed on his current situation by the vampire expert, "Super Lucky Abrams."

Regardless of the current situation of the "Vampire King" and Leo, who is one step away from becoming a member of the Blood World, these two are individuals that the "FangKill" headquarters cannot ignore. Under the advice and instructions of the "Extreme Evil King" Izuku Midoriya, the "FangKill" headquarters can only maintain a wait-and-see attitude for now.

"That means that although you may appear to be within the range of a normal person, your physical abilities are actually at a superhuman level, second only to the Blood Realm's Familiars."

"Huh? I didn't feel anything at all!"

In the past few days, Leo has found that he hasn't changed much from before. He still goes to work, eats, and sleeps as usual.

"That's normal, because your subconscious mind has always been telling you to control the amount of force you exert during your human years. You've never tried to do things beyond your capabilities, have you?"

"Like this?"

Yes, just like this!

Leo lifted the large tea table at the "Libra" headquarters with one hand. It would take at least two or three people to move this solid wood tea table, let alone an ordinary person lifting it with one hand.

"Unbelievable... I don't think I used much strength, yet I lifted the table?"

"To be precise, the increase in power is only part of the change. You now possess almost some of the immortality of the Blood Realm's Familiars."

"Immortality?...Does it mean being able to continue living and talking even after your head has been cut off!?"

"Haha! What you're describing is only the case for fully-formed Blood Realm Familiars. At level 12, you are essentially still human. Your immortality is probably such that even if your heart is removed, you can still be jumping around for a while... but after that, you will die a normal death."

After listening to Abrams' detailed explanation and analogy, Leo nodded seriously and corrected him, saying:

"That's good, at least I'm within the range of normal human beings, right?"

"No... I mean if you lose your heart, basically if your head is chopped off, you can probably survive for a few days."

"Wait!—Why is it that losing your heart kills you so quickly, but losing your head allows you to survive for a few more days!?"

Leo was completely baffled, and Abrams' explanation only confused him more. What kind of weird existence had he become?

"Didn't I just say that your heart is still human?"

Pointing his finger at Abrams's heart on Leo's chest, the vampire expert said solemnly to Leo:

"You are now essentially an incomplete Blood Realm Familiar. After undergoing twelve ritual transformations, your head has already transcended the human realm, with only your heart remaining untransformed."

"Similarly! If your heart undergoes the thirteenth ritual transformation, 'Leonardo Watch', you will undoubtedly become a Blood Familiar, our enemy... Please remember this well!!"

"Originally, the 'Fang Hunt' did not allow people of mutation level 12 to exist. They either had to undergo hellish training to become human again, just like what Klaus did before."

Pointing to Klaus, who was still engrossed in playing "Demon Chess" online, Leo was initially quite down after reaching level 12. However, after his boss comforted him and shared his embarrassing past to encourage him, he learned that Klaus had also been transformed by the Blood World's familiars and almost became a vampire.

Having endured hellish training where death was a constant threat, Klaus returned to human form and became the "Fang Hunter's" trump card against the Blood World's familiars.

“Either we will ruthlessly kill those at mutation level 12, because ‘Fang Hunt’ does not allow anyone who could potentially become a Blood Realm Familiar to exist.”

"Of course, under the demands of the 'Extreme Evil King,' we must also make concessions. Moreover, Leo, the 'Divine Eye' you possess will still be an indispensable trump card against Elder-level Blood World Families in the future, so be thankful for your good fortune... at least you haven't completely become a Blood World Familie."

Leo swallowed hard in fear. Only now did he realize how lucky he was to have survived; he had almost been killed by his own people!

"In short, you don't need to worry too much about your safety now, but you should still take care of your heart. If someone accidentally damages your heart, you're doomed."

After listening to Abrams finish speaking, Leo scratched the back of his head in confusion and cautiously asked a question.

“Mr. Abrams... the relic that suppressed my transformation into a Blood World Familiar is located in my chest area, right?”

"That's right, so what?"

"Um... if someone were to rip out your heart, wouldn't this cross relic also be damaged at the same time?"

"Hmm... I think so... We considered this issue during the design process."

Abrams, stroking his chin thoughtfully, was met with increasing unease from Leo, who raised his right hand and started waving it around.

"Professor Abrams, I have a question!"

"Mr. Leonardo, may I ask you?"

"What would happen if the heart was destroyed at the same time as the cross was destroyed?"

"Haha~ Of course they'll become Blood Realm Familiars! What a strange question you've asked, young man!"

"Wait a minute! Something's really wrong!?"

Finally, Leo figured out where the strange problem lay and anxiously asked Abrams.

"Didn't you just say that my heart is still human and hasn't fully transformed into a Blood World Familiar? That should be my weakness. Logically speaking, if someone accidentally blows my heart out, I should die, right?"

"That's right! Is that so? What's wrong?"

"Then why did I become a Blood Realm Familiar at the same time my heart was blown out and the ritual artifact that suppressed it was lost?!"

"That's how it's supposed to be, is there a problem?"

"Wait... what kind of setting is this?! Please follow common sense and conventions!!"

Leo, who has started to complain wildly, is only missing a pair of glasses to transform into the perfect吐槽 (tu cao, a Chinese internet slang term for sarcastic or critical commentary) character, and he begins to criticize and point out all the unreasonable aspects of things.

"Mr. Leonardo, a human life is finite!"

"Wha...what happened?!"

Seeing Abrams' serious expression, Leo couldn't help but take it seriously as well. Perhaps this vampire expert really had something important to say to him.

"Therefore, people who pursue details often end up alone."

"Is that so...? Looks like I really was too stubborn—what a load of rubbish!"

"Give me a proper explanation! Are you going to say next, 'Anyone who seeks realism in a fictional story must have something wrong with their head?'"

"Hahaha~ As expected of Leonardo with the 'Divine Eye,' you actually guessed it!"

"Ahhhhh!!"

................

Leo, who is usually on the verge of a breakdown, had another very meaningful day in "Hersaremz Roth".

I'm taking the day off today; I absolutely have to...

The Lostbelt Chapter 3 was so damn awesome! I was so shocked after reading it that I couldn't even type it out. I was speechless. I was so stunned that I couldn't even express my shock with countless "Holy crap"s.

Because I also wrote a novel about FGO, the one called "The Awakener," which you should know.

I only have one sentence to say right now.

Even the most hardcore fans wouldn't dare write something like this, Gen Urobuchi is amazing... I need to calm myself down first.

The last sentence—"These are fucking awful! I don't even know how to write a book about the Moon World anymore!!"

Chapter 40 Virtual Warfare (Part 1)

"You stupid servant!"

"Hey! What's wrong now?"

Inside the KFC, Shinobu started yelling at Leo with a displeased look on her face, leaving Leo, who was still eating his hamburger, completely bewildered. He wondered if he had done anything to offend her.

"Why have you been buying hamburgers for that mushroom guy every day lately? You weren't this diligent when I wanted donuts!"

You mean "Naji"...

A few days ago, Leo met the mushroom alien again and saw that the mushroom alien had spent $64 to get the two truck drivers who had hit it with their cars last time to buy four hamburgers.

This is already four times the price. Leo, unable to stand it any longer, confronted the two truck drivers, only to be told by the mushroom-man that it knew the price, but because of his otherworldly identity and appearance, it was impossible for him to afford a hamburger.

(Note that the burger mentioned here refers to the "Jackie's Big Mac," which is only sold to humans in Helsaremz Roth.)

The mushroom man's name is "Yamaguranaf Rozotam Up Ri Nagi". Because the name is too long for Leo to remember, he simply calls it Nagi.

Whether it was out of kindness or because he couldn't bear to see the situation, Leo told Nagi that he was willing to buy it a hamburger without any extra charge... because it was just a small favor.

For a while after that, Leo would often buy "Jack's Cheese Big Mac" for Naji, and today was no exception.
