Chapter 40 Is The Protagonist's Halo Broken?

Several hours had passed since Seekvaira had called her uncle.

The Expo had begun and many of Japan's wealthy were present to see the many technologies on display.

If there was a technology that those people were interested, they would support the person who developed that technology by investing and cooperating with that person.

Some people have already found the technology they asked for, and have even reached cooperation, but that's for someone else.

The technology developed by Seekvaira itself did not seem to be of enough interest and the people who came only looked for a while and left.

"Is this the technology developed by the young lady of the Agares family? I've heard she's a genius, but robot technology? I'm not interested."

"Yeah I'm not interested either, it's just a small robot that can move around and do some simple work."

"Even if this kind of technology were to be developed, it would definitely cost a lot of money."

"Yeah basically it's definitely not worth it, not to mention there would be the usual trial and error that usually happens a lot which would cost even more."

"Hey...it's a shame that Miss Seekvaira is wasting her time developing such technology. Mini Gundam, right? It's also a bit childish."

"Sttt! Fool, keep your voice down. If Miss Seekvaira is offended by your words. You might suffer get revenge from her."

"Yes, I've also heard that that Miss Seekvaira has a serious personality and doesn't take kindly to people who are rude to her."

"Although her appearance is very beautiful, she also has a sharp tongue. Hiss! I don't want to offend her."

The men whispered not far from Seekvaira while looking at her Mini Gundam on public display.

Although it was some distance away, Seekvaira could hear the whispers of the people. Her face became gloomy and she clenched her fists.

She took a deep breath and exhaled.

No matter what others say, you just need to be confident and wait for someone who might be interested in her technology.

Although the Agares family was actually a wealthy family that was only slightly lower than the Seven Great Families and had a lot of money. Seekvaira did not want to ask for money from her family to develop her technology.

Not only did she not want to, even her family would be against it, they also did not like seeing her waste time with her robot technology.

So it was impossible to ask her family for help to finance the development of her technology.

So she could only use another way by participating in the Expo event, here she hoped that there would be many people interested in investing in her.

But after a few hours of waiting, it seemed that there would be no people who were really interested in investing in her.

Seekvaira was actually sad, even she was smiling wryly at the moment.

I was hoping that my hobby would be liked and in high demand by many people.

But I didn't expect that people seemed to think my mecha hobby was a waste of time and there were also people who mocked me as childish.

It seems like the only person interested in investing in it is the protagonist Issei who Riser mentioned in his inner voice.

But Issei wasn't really interested in her technology either, he was only interested in her beauty and wanted to deceive her.

Thinking about this, Seekvaira felt angry, but she was also sad that her technology wasn't selling.

At this moment, suddenly someone broke through the crowd. It was a man wearing a shirt with a floral print.

Seekvaira felt that the scene before her eyes was familiar.

"Huh? Could it be that the man who broke through the crowd was..."

She was actually still uncertain about the plot that would happen today.

She even felt that Issei would not come to bother her.

But reality was different from what she thought as Issei actually came!

The crooked smile, ugly face, and the type of clothes Riser had mentioned so many times that she could instantly recognize Issei's appearance.

"Damn! This disgusting man really came..."

Seekvaira wanted to immediately order the men her uncle had sent to catch Issei and drive him away from her.

But she held back and waited for what Issei wanted to say first.

She just wanted to make sure if he said the same thing he said inside Riser's inner voice?

Issei had come and he had also found the woman he was looking for, he looked at Seekvaira and said in a loud voice that could be heard by the people around him.



"Beauty, ignore those narrow-minded people. I understand the technology you developed is a masterpiece. As long as there is capital to develop it, I believe it is not impossible to create an army of giant robots that can fly in the sky and explore space. Therefore, Beauty, I will invest 1 billion dollars in you!"

!!!

People were shocked and stared at Issei in awe as Riser had said, no one even doubted Issei.

Seekvaira in the original work also believed in Issei's nonsense, but Seekvaira now is...

She looked at Issei coldly, her serious face looked cold and she immediately ordered her bodyguards.

"I want this guy thrown out of the field. If he resists, you can all beat him up because he dared to try to deceive me."

The muscular and black-clad bodyguards surrounded Issei.

The people watching were shocked by this development.

Even Issei was surprised.

[What's going on? I clearly spoke well with this woman from the Agares family and wanted to invest a billion dollars in her. Instead of being happy and inviting me for a one-on-one chat, she ordered her bodyguards to throw me out and beat me up.]

[Is this woman crazy?]

Puff!

Poor protagonist.

Did you fail to pick up women again?

The heroines were somehow already not surprised if Issei failed again to get heroine.

"Wait a minute Beauty, I think you might have heard wrong. I said I want to invest 1 billion dollars in you, why are you treating me so rudely?" Issei asked in confusion while brushing off the hands of the bodyguards who wanted to drag him away.

Seekvaira snorted, she gave Issei a disgusted look and said, "You want to cheat me, of course I won't be polite to you. You said you wanted to invest 1 billion dollars in me? Do you even have that money and can transfer it to me? Looking at your appearance, I doubt you even have that much money."

Issei's face stiffened at Seekvaira's words.

What Seekvaira said was actually true, he wanted to deceive her by pretending to invest in her.

The real goal was to get close to Seekvaira and use some tricks to make her his woman.

But he didn't expect her to seem smart enough and it would be difficult to get her.

About 1 billion dollars, he actually had that much money. But the money was overseas and had not been laundered so he could not use it in large amounts like 1 billion dollars.

In fact, he said that 1 billion dollars is really just to appear dominating in front of many rich people here.

He doesn't really intend to invest in the technology developed by Seekvaira.

He is more interested in Seekvaira itself!

That woman with over 90 points of beauty could only be his!

There was also the Agares family behind her that he needed to be one of his allies in this country.

After hearing what Seekvaira said in a loud voice, the people who did not doubt Issei gasped and at the same time looked at Issei for a second time.

They felt blind before for not doubting Issei had that much money.

"Now I just realized it. That guy's appearance doesn't look like a rich person, he even looks like a beggar! How could that man have 1 billion dollars!"

"I... I feel the same way. I didn't pay proper attention to that man's appearance before. I almost believe he really has a billion dollars!"

"Fortunately Miss Seekvaira was not fooled by this guy and she even realized it faster than us."

"Hiss! Horrible, this beggar dares to want to deceive Miss Seekvaira, even in front of so many people. Does this beggar want to die?"





People looked at Issei with disgust, they even deliberately whispered loudly for Issei to hear them.

Issei's face darkened, he stared at the whispering people with murderous intent.

[Beggars? Who are you calling a beggar? I'm the Dragon King! My appearance is not something you can judge with the eyes of a commoner!]

[Look at this cherry blossom print shirt, and these cobra shorts. Isn't it cool and different from everyone else? These people really don't know what a cool and domineering aesthetic is.]

The heroines: "...."

You're basically saying people don't know what a good aesthetic is, right?

No, you're actually the one who's wrong here!

Why do you always want to be different from others without paying attention to the place you're visiting!

Going to a rich people's place wearing a floral shirt and cobra pants.

Isn't that the same as making people doubt your identity?

Many heroines shook their heads at Issei's way of thinking that was different from everyone else.

This protagonist has brain problems.

Don't know when that brain problem will be cured.

Seekvaira stared at Issei as if the other party was an idiot.

"Is this protagonist? He has a brain problem."

She looked at her bodyguards and said in a loud voice. "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and get him out of here!"

"Yes, young lady!" The bodyguards answered in unison.

They immediately held Issei's hands from both sides, and the other bodyguards pushed Issei's back towards the exit of the field.

"No, no, wait Miss Seekvaira! You misunderstood! I have no intention of deceiving you, I really do have a billion dollars! I... I just need time to cash it in."

Issei said hesitantly, the money hadn't been laundered yet, so he couldn't use it.

Seekvaira was too lazy to respond to Issei's ramblings, she ignored him and let the bodyguards take him away.

The people looked at Issei with disgust, they also no longer believed what Issei said.

"Wait! Ahhh! How dare you do this to the Dragon King!"

"Shut up! You follow us obediently." said one of the bodyguards who held Issei's hand and dragged him away.

Issei tried to resist, but he didn't resist with all his might. He could have beaten these people and broken their bones.

But in front of this many people, he was worried that doing so would only reflect badly on him and his image in the eyes of the important people who might be here would be bad.

So he could only let the bodyguards take him away. After that he could think of other ways to get Seekvaira.

Issei's eyes became sharp.

Just wait for Seekvaira Agares.

The Dragon King has marked you as his woman, there is no way you can escape from him.

It's also the same for Grayfia, Rias, Sona and other women he's interested in.

Despite failing many times, he won't give up!

Seekvaira sighed as she sat down on the chair, now that there were fewer people gathered around her.

It seemed that there really wasn't anyone who would be interested in investing in her technology.

At this moment, she suddenly heard Riser's inner voice.

[This main plot is also wrong like the others. Even before I intervened, the plot didn't go according to the original work! I didn't expect Seekvaira not to be fooled by the protagonist, she even had her bodyguards drive the protagonist away.]

[Is the protagonist's halo broken? No, that thing obviously still works on ordinary people, but I don't know why the heroines aren't affected.]

[By the way I feel sorry for Seekvaira because no one wants to invest in her Mini Gundam technology. Should I help her out a little? Although Issei failed this time, he will definitely try other ways to be able to have a relationship with Seekvaira.]

[Just in case, I should move earlier than the protagonist and prevent it. Okay, I'm doing this.]

Seekvaira was interested in what Riser had to say, it seemed like that villain wanted to help her.

She looked around and was surprised to see a man already standing in front of her.

She raised her head to see the man's face from her sitting position. What she saw next was the face of the most handsome man she had ever seen, there was also a gentle smile on the man's face as he looked at her.

"Hello Miss Seekvaira, your technology seems interesting. Can I see what this robot can do?"

"...."

"Miss Seekvaira, Miss Seekvaira, hello... Hey?"

If this scene is viewed from a third-person perspective, you would see this scene as a woman being mesmerized by the handsome man she just saw.

There are also special effects such as the background slightly glowing with spring light that make the atmosphere seem romantic and dramatic.

Seekvaira stares blankly at the man in front of her.

Was this Riser? The villain in this world whose inner voice she could hear?
