Kuroto Dan! Become the Game Advisor of Millennium!

Maki, Kotama, and Hare turned the power back on in the activity room, and the lights returned.

After flipping the switch and reconnecting the computer to the network, just as Dan Kuruto had said, the network was restored to normal, and the troublesome virus program vanished like a dream.

If it weren't for the attack program they had set up, the three of them would have truly thought this was a dream in broad daylight.

"Kuroto...san."

Having regained her composure, Kotama took on the responsibility of speaking to Kuroto Dan as the only third-year senior in Veritas. "Was the purpose of coming to Veritas just to figure out who the opponent is?"

"On the one hand, yes," Kuroto Dan replied, surveying the room.

Upon entering, he realized that although he had breached Veritas's defenses, their network security was indeed at a fortress level. Even though he was now inside, there were still electronic databases he couldn't access which were heavily blocked to an extreme degree.

"I have to admit, your excellent hacking skills gave me a lot of trouble—but that's because I couldn't use my full strength yet!" Kuroto Dan praised, then quickly added, "If Billions had been useful, I would have destroyed all your attack programs from the front and entered through the front door! I haven't used my full strength yet!"

"Is this supposed to be praise or an insult?" Maki blinked. "And what are you really here for? To take over Veritas?"

"Ah? What do I need here?" Kuroto Dan looked around. "Though many of the equipment here are impressive..."

"If you need a computer, there are plenty of stores selling them in Millennium," Hare spoke, turning on the computer to check the damage to the server. At the same time, she began searching for information about Kuroto Dan. "Kuroto Dan... you're a strange adult. Neither Millennium nor the General Student Council has any registration for you. How did you enter Kivotos?"

"I don't even know myself."

Kuroto Dan shrugged. "I didn't even know where you are. Some kids from the Game Development Department went to a strange ruin to find the 'method to make the ultimate game.' I heard they were looking for me, so I followed them out."

"Wait... ruins?" Kotama's eyes widened. "You said you came out of the ruins?"

"Ah, right?"

Kuroto Dan didn't see the need to hide anything. He was proud of his strength and usually didn't care. "Do you know Momoi and Midori?"

"More than knowing..."

Maki smiled awkwardly. "I'll have to make them spend a lot to treat us later. After all the twists and turns, it turns out Momo-chan and the others caused all this trouble..."

As Kuroto Dan mentioned, he had come to Veritas just on a whim. When he encountered an opponent who could fight with him online, he became genuinely interested in seeing who it was.

When asked about the last attack, the three hackers from Veritas looked at each other and spoke the name. "It was the attack data packet left by Minister Himari who left Veritas."

In front of the person who had penetrated their firewall and demolished the special data packet, Hare thought for a moment and still said Himari's name. "She said that if we encounter a virus we can't handle, use this data packet. It will automatically unpack the virus, and the former minister will also receive a notification."

"So, it's just the data packet left behind?" Kuroto Dan thought seriously. "In that case, this woman named Himari is more powerful than the three of you combined?"

"Uh-huh!" Maki said awkwardly. "Although that's the truth, it's a bit sad to hear you say it!"

"Minister Himari is indeed the strongest hacker in Millennium. This is an irrefutable fact."

Kotama nodded. "And she must have received the data packet contact. Maybe she's secretly watching here with a camera right now."

....

....

....

After visiting the most powerful hacker headquarters in Millennium as the victor, Kuroto Dan took an entire set of computers and digitized them, moving them into his own Game Area. His packing technology was top-notch, which severely shocked the worldview of the girls in front of him.

After Kuroto Dan left Veritas, a hidden camera was turned off.

Just as Hare said, when the data packet left behind was automatically unpacked, Himari had already discovered that Veritas was facing Kuroto Dan.

However, Himari was also curious.

When she observed the internet, she could only see a bunch of data. Kuroto Dan, whom she had thought was an artificial intelligence, actually surpassed her understanding. When he approached Veritas, he had a physical body in the real world.

This was an unexpected and extraordinary emergency.

"What an interesting development..."

In the dim room full of monitors, the long-haired girl sitting in a wheelchair showed an interested expression. "Why does an adult without a halo appear in this form? Is it related to the seriously ill adult in the General Student Council? The existence found in the ruins... Momo and the others did find something interesting in the 'ruins.'"

"And this Mr. Kuroto Dan... his senses are indeed sharp."

Himari felt that before leaving, Kuroto Dan had glanced in the direction of the camera she controlled. Fortunately, the camera had been installed by Veritas itself, and she just borrowed it from the outside with a fake IP. With foolproof preparations, Himari was confident that she had not been discovered by Kuroto Dan.

"Is this the calmness that adults have?"

...

...

...

Unable to distinguish whether it was a peep from the outside or internal monitoring, Kuroto Dan didn't care about these things.

He had just received a high-configuration computer from Veritas for free. In a good mood, he had collected a lot of information and was planning to start his project to redevelop a new Gashat.

"The members of the Game Development Department are all very talented players. There is a high chance they will develop a new Gashat. This could be an opportunity to prove how the Gashats in this world are different from the world I used to live in..."

Kuroto Dan could clearly see that this world where everyone had a halo above their heads, students managed themselves, carrying guns on the street was as common as eating and drinking, and fights broke out over disagreements, was definitely not the world he originally lived in.

Unless this is the paradise of America where even angels carry guns.

"If it's because of the different nature of this world that I can't use Billions..." Kuroto Dan pondered. "God Maximum X is a 'miracle' that can only be activated when I fully understand the essence of the world. Maybe after I understand the 'fundamentals' of this world, I'll be able to use the power of the Billion?"
