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.

What he relied on was technology—a kind of prosthetic body that could be embedded within fat structures.


More precisely, this was called "nano-increment."


This was a technology developed by Ampule Biological Medical... by implanting a type of nanomechanical worm into the body, a strong impact-resistant layer gradually formed within.


The model Comb Teeth used was the most advanced one he could get on Happiness Island.


It was said that only the Directors at the head office could acquire this new technology from the Ampule Biological Medical branch.
