Not praying for ten strings

In a world dominated by seven super-corporations, the Longevity Species that always occupied the pinnacle of power didn't allow for the enactment of written laws. The Floating Islands of prisons delimited by lines on the map, where resources would inevitably run out in the future...
People yearned for the birth of a true "Hero," yet they cynically awaited the fall of a Hero from grace.
As long as one was hailed by the media as a Hero, even murder could be forgiven, and every word they said would be adored. Even high and mighty Elves dared not provoke the edge of a Hero.
But if a Hero of the past committed even a minor offense, the moment their image crumbled, the forgiven sins would flare up like an inextinguishable furnace, and the stars of yesterday would instantly become unforgivable criminals...
"—Come become a Hero, Russell."
The most vicious criminal in the world thrust a knife into the boy's hand, whispering a low enticement.

Tower of Overturn

After the Church War, each sky island retained only one model of each mechanical weapon.


After those synthetic humans had stolen the "Fire Opal," God Communication Island was unable to produce another identical one.


No matter how you look at it, those synthetic humans were responsible.


To prevent Russell, an Outer Island special agent hired by Mental Heavy Industry to solve the synthetic human problem, from reaching God Communication Island, they controlled the Fire Opal in advance to shoot him down at sea.


This was also likely to show Mental Heavy Industry that they had the capability to control the Fire Opal.


The Fire Opal could remain invisibly for an extended time, and if it stopped at a high position, it was hardly noticeable. Meanwhile, the synthetic humans could place the Fire Opal above any target they wanted to bomb, silently launching invisible missiles to destroy it.
