I, the Heir of Heroes

"This is not something to be thankful for, you don't need to be so solemn."

Facing the slightly bowing figure in front of him, Jia Luo refused with a wry smile.In his view, it is a responsibility to make the people he loves happy and happy.

"Shouldn't all so-called lovers do this?"

"Is that so..."

Takeuchi who raised his forehead suddenly showed a dazed look.After hesitating for a moment, he asked with a confident tone:

"Master Jia Luo, I would venture to ask, the so-called love is to seek the other party, right?"

"???"

Jia Luo couldn't answer, and he couldn't get the correct answer based on his knowledge and experience.

"[Become my thing], it is [love] who seeks the other party like this."

The ice drink in his hand had bottomed out at some point, and Jia Luo fell silent while holding the cup.

"Love is not a one-sided effort. I think Miss Mayumi is also distressed now. She doesn't know what Master Jia Luo expects. With all due respect, this state is not conducive to the development of relationships."

"Takeuchi, have you ever been in love?"

"Eh~ eh!? No, no... I haven't talked about it."

Facing Jia Luo's merciless "sarcasm" question, Takeuchi fell into a panic for an instant, and she was a little frustrated as she hurriedly concealed her gaffe.However, the good quality of the deacon quickly calmed her down.

"Master Jia Luo, has anyone ever told you that your blunt words will lose points in the impression of a lady?"

"Ah, sorry."

A very sincere apology, but it seems to have hurt the heart of the leftover woman in Takeuchi even more.And Jia Luo's flat and decisive apology at this time was in great contrast to the cold and serious impression in Takeuchi's impression.

"Pfft~"

Unable to hold back, Takeuchi laughed out loud.She covered her mouth with her little hand, and her shoulders were trembling slightly.

"When I first met Master Jia Luo, I felt that the young master is a very strange person."

"Strange—is it because of my pupil color?"

"Maybe. At the beginning, I really didn't know why I suddenly felt... scared. But after getting along for a while, Master Jia Luo, you are actually very gentle. Coupled with your innate noble temperament, I have to say Miss has a very good eye."

——It should be considered a compliment.

"So, I hope you don't think I'm talking too much—imposed kindness will deteriorate..."

Regarding Jia Luo's silence, Takeuchi closed one eye and said in a mischievous manner.Then, ignoring his pensive expression, he bowed his head slightly to say goodbye, then turned and left.

As a third-party bystander, Takeuchi sees more clearly than Galo, who is the party involved, in many aspects.She doesn't want to interfere too much with the pure love between the two, but Takeuchi, who bears the responsibility of Mayumi's deacon, can't help but secretly remind her.

Gallo, who has excellent insight, can easily understand her overtones.

Watching her gradually leave, Jia Luo refocused on the distant view.At this time, a round of bright moon pierced the night sky, and sent the soft moonlight to all things.

"It was really a good lesson! Sure enough, even you haven't experienced such a thing, and you can't understand it—Karna."

The corner of his mouth murmured softly, and with a faint smile on his face, it was obvious that Jia Luo had figured out something that had troubled him for a long time.Casually putting the glass in his hand on the table beside him, Jia Luo slowly walked towards his room.

Chapter 140 IX Encirclement and Suppression by Multiple Forces

The early morning sun arrived as expected, just struggling to break free from the restraint of the horizon, exuding light and heat vigorously.Although it is the same yellowish tone, bathing in it brings incomparable comfort.

In a residential building in Ueno, a 45-year-old man named DD just woke up.He has brown hair and eyes, and looks like an ordinary person with a Caucasian appearance.

DD's real name is Donald Dowlas, but almost no one calls him [Mr. Dowlas]. He was only called by [Dee. Dee] since he was a child. He was lived in the same apartment by his colleagues at work people think that it is an ordinary human being who is neither bad nor bad.

DD was a comprehensive management worker in an excellent experimental research institute three months ago.He has a track record of graduating with honors from a technical university.But the wrong choice of life path caused him to lose the job that could satisfy his self-esteem, and he repeated his full-time job many times before getting married.

He was dissatisfied with the worker's job.Although he is a manual worker, he still has a high responsibility status in the company, and his salary is enough to meet the basic needs of life.His standard of living is slightly above the average for most of the USA, but DD thinks he deserves a more advanced job.

Even so, after getting married, I kept my ambitions in my heart in order to put my family first.Although unfortunately there is no child yet, the relationship between the couple can be said to be very satisfactory.To his wife, he can be called a good man who takes care of the family.

If he hadn't been affected by the inexplicable and terrible incident, he might have survived according to this established ordinary fate.

On the day of the miniature black hole experiment, he was carrying out a routine inspection of the switchboard outside the building of the linear particle accelerator facility, and looked at the huge experimental device with longing eyes.The unsatisfied ambition that was sealed in his heart became pure [desire] and filled his heart.However, this should be over when the memory is distracted for a while.And after returning home, he will still play the role of a good husband.

However, things have come to this point, such an ordinary life is no longer possible—he, being parasitized by parasites, can no longer live a normal life.

The most basic emotions of being a "human being" are infinitely diluted, and the original purpose of "struggling to gain a higher status" is replaced by "survival".That day, he turned into a parasitic puppet, and all cognitions were subtly changed.From now on, it will be the parasite's instinct, not human reason, that will dominate this body.

The laboratory where he worked was destroyed the next day, and he, who was indifferent in his heart, instantly sensed the crisis of his life.He doesn't have the talent of a magician, but just struggles in society as an ordinary person.After merging with the parasite, he gained the only supernatural power in his life-forced hypnosis.He used this ability to deceive his wife and came to Japan following the common will of his kind.

Although, he didn't know what the reason was.

DD's hypnotic suggestion ability is not very strong, he can't make people take actions that violate common sense or moral bottom line.Therefore, his hint to his wife is only to [long-term business trip to Japan].

However, if it is within the scope of common sense, even a rather unnatural order can be imposed on ordinary people in an area.Through this ability, he secured the same kind of residence.It even used this ability to distort the cognition of ordinary people in a large range and hide the traces of similar activities.

But not long ago, nearly one-third of the companions lost their hosts one after another.After receiving the news of being wiped out one after another, they suddenly panicked.Because, judging from this speed of cleaning, it is clear that there is not only one party that rounds up them.But they just don't know anything about this kind of intelligence.

For this reason, they decided to temporarily shift their positions and go to other areas to lurk.

There was an inexplicable sound of insect wings flapping in the air, and DD spoke to his companions in the apartment where he had packed his luggage.

"Transfer preparations are over."

DD asks the inner side of consciousness.
