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...

The most vicious criminal in the world thrust a knife into the boy's hand, whispering a low enticement.

Sally Ruth definitely knows, and Amirus knows as well. Even the Director of Mental Heavy Industry, Sal, seems to be aware that this Torkifat is a fake.


But it seems like none of them really care about this.


——Considering this point, perhaps "dust gap's" death was not solely to cut off Russell's leads.


There might also be a part of the reason that was to trouble Torkifat and hinder his plans.


Thinking this, Russell walked into the scene.


Although "dust gap" Mr. Father had the nickname "Monkey-faced Eagle," he was actually neither a monkey nor an eagle—but a moose.
