Komachi Homura

My assets had become an amount that can be called a success without any hesitation.

It's a wonderful world of investment.

"Should I buy a tower apartment?" I muttered to myself on Omotesando.

"Or maybe there," I thought, considering buying a house in the world's only aerial city, Onogoro.

Yeah, that's good. The view must be great.

The smiling faces of the young people walking by were dazzling. I watched the scene with a smile.

It feels really good. It's like my telomeres are activating throughout my body, and my genetic spiral is super-evolving.

Money is power. With a lot of money, you can have peace of mind.

With the money that I would have never been able to get in my past life, I was fulfilled.

I was fully armed with perfect brand products, including a Hermes oversized sunglasses, a Chanel black and gold embroidered silk hat, a bright red Gucci suit, and dark purple Ferragamo boots made of Waterbuck leather.

My sense of fashion surprised even myself. The guards of hell would also be impressed. Even the residents of hell would be despairing of my fashion sense.

I even had a Fatteck Pyloric watch on my wrist.

For breakfast, I had clam power and high-grade glucosamine. It was perfect. I felt amazing.

I sent a cheer to the young people in my heart, "Come up to the top. I'm waiting."

"Ha. Hahaha! I'm amazing! I'm cool! Strong! Invincible! The strongest!"

I raised both hands toward the sky, flipping off the gods.

"Hey, you guys from the administration, are you watching? I have the clue to clear the game! Come at me with everything you've got!"

Meanwhile, the people around me were getting restless.

"What's that? Isn't that super lame?"

"He looks like a clown lol"

"Take a picture with your phone."

"Stop it. He's looking over here."

The commoners were looking at me with envious eyes.

"What a bother."

I, who had recently resigned from being a commoner, said with a sigh.

"Excuse me, can I talk to you for a moment?"

It was the police.

I felt their suspicious gaze on me.

"What do you want?"

Before I knew it, I was surrounded by several policemen.

Why?

After that, I was stopped and questioned, but I didn't give up and rushed to a real estate agent. Of course, it was to build a house for Onogoro. To cut to the chase, the difference was staggering. I had underestimated Onogoro's real estate. It was a thousand times larger than Tokyo.

The land prices and property sizes were also a thousand times larger, even for a one-room rental apartment, it would cost a billion yen per month. Normal single-family homes were in the world of hundreds of billions. It's impossible. Even as a successful person, I couldn't afford it. My intuition as the darling of the times tells me to withdraw from here. Maybe a bourgeois way of life is the only thing suitable for me.

Do I have no choice but to live in the lower world...? Damn it! Why? Isn't the main character given a house right after enrollment?

I became desperate at the disparity between the protagonist and a character named Amachi.

I felt like shouting out loud at God Unei's injustice.

"I am a man who will rise to the top...but I'll give up this time!"

I took a deep breath and calmed down, though I wasn't a loser. I had an event that I needed to do.

"I can't afford to say things like that..."

I checked the time on my prideful wristwatch.

"Oh, it's just the right time."

My happy shopping was over, and now it was time to set up another bad-end avoidance strategy. I stretched and prepared myself again.

Months had passed since Marie's rescue, and I had grown a little. I had added some useful magic, and rare ones at that.

I should have surpassed level 35. It was also a hassle that I couldn't check my status bar because this world had become real."

There is another heroine besides Marie who needs to be introduced before the main story starts. She is one of the main heroines, Homura Komachi, who is the protagonist's junior character with long black hair and lacquer bucket-colored eyes.

Her appearance is that of a sharp-dressed girl with a black Sukajan jacket with a skull embroidery and a school uniform.

In the world of galge, anything goes for clothing, so let's not nitpick about that.

Anyway, Komachi always chews gum and has slightly shaded eyes, giving off a childlike yet alluring atmosphere.

Despite her popularity due to her good looks, she, like Marie, was an unfortunate character who couldn't make it into the top seven in the popularity poll due to the darkness of the scenario.

"Seriously, there are too many virgin fetishists among the users. It's disgusting. Well, I'm also a virgin... but that's irrelevant! My chastity is an impenetrable defense that could even win me the Ballon d'Or in soccer. What can a man who can't protect his virginity protect? Don't make me laugh!"

"Haa... haa..."

Let's calm down a little. I got a little heated. Damn it, this kind of thing makes me emotionally unstable.

I'm out of breath.

"Here, have a glass of water."

I feel a little calmer after quenching my thirst.

It's hydrogen water, bought in bulk from Amazon, a dozen bottles for 3,000 yen. Because I'm a successful person.

Komachi has a habit of constantly staring at people with piercing eyes, as it later turns out that she does this simply to mask her sleepiness.

She also has a setting where she chews gum to stay awake.

Her combat method is mainly close combat weapon techniques, primarily using a sword to deliver slashing attacks.

She is a lethargic Japanese sword wielder.

Like me, Komachi has no aptitude for release-type magic.

Her aptitude for magic attributes is "gold," and she can only use enchantment-type weapon enhancement magic or body strengthening magic.

She also does not have any dedicated equipment.

Her peak performance is similar to Amachi's in some ways. One unique feature she has is being a holder of a powerful unique skill as a magic eye owner.

Magic eye holders are rare and very few exist. Among the 1,000 playable characters in the game Megashuva, there are only three magic eye holders, and Komachi is one of them.

This single point elevates her final status to a Tier 2 for 5 star character. While she may not have Marie's extensive area-of-effect annihilation capabilities, in one-on-one combat, she can surpass Marie in terms of combat power.

Her unique skill is called the "Magic Eye of Polar Night." This is a pretty broken skill.

Komachi's route is quite unique, with many foreshadowing elements. Unfortunately, the COR (a set of the world's three largest mafia alliances that form a super-giant criminal network) appears intermittently in her route, but it cannot be resolved directly.

This is because a direct confrontation with COR is an incredibly difficult stage, and even someone as powerful as Amachi at present would be killed instantly. There is another route that involves a full-blown confrontation with COR, but this requires gathering a team of powerful allies, otherwise death is certain.

Therefore, the most adult solution seems to be the best course of action.

I can do that, and that plan is to "buy Komachi." That's the plan.

Your gift is the motivation for my creation. Give me more motivation!
