A Single Person's Infinite Wonderful Life

Meizai's cooking skills are quite good. While she wouldn't say they're professional, she can easily whip up all sorts of home-style dishes that are delicious and visually appealing. She used to think Meizai's cooking skills were indeed quite good, but comparisons are inevitable.

Before there was any comparison or reference, Meizai's cooking skills were naturally not a problem. She ate with great relish. Anyway, she didn't have to cook for herself. For lazy people, other people's cooking always tastes better, while their own cooking always tastes worse.

However, once things are compared, a distinction naturally arises. Compared to the sumptuous feast, the bento box made by Mizai seems rather inadequate. Although the variety is quite rich and it can be considered luxurious compared to other bento boxes, it seems too simple compared to the sumptuous meals that the three of them enjoy every day.

However, she is currently wanted by the authorities, and since it is not yet certain whether Li Wei is absolutely reliable, she cannot openly appear in Izumo Manor and can only live a pitiful life like this.

Most importantly, she can't complain that Miya's bento isn't delicious enough. If she angers Miya, Miya won't make her bento anymore, and in the end, she'll be the one who goes hungry.

........................

Inside the courtyard, Li Wei relaxed his body. Around him, a vast amount of energy, invisible to the naked eye but undeniably present, swirled around him. Of course, for Li Wei himself, this level of energy dissipation was like gas escaping from the valve of a pressure cooker while it was cooking something—just a drizzle.

However, the two girls watching from the nearby corridor both looked astonished. The Uranium Girl was shocked by the power her golden thigh possessed—this unreasonable and terrifying power, confined to an extremely small space by Li Wei, was something that, if released, would cause unimaginable horrific destruction.

. . .

What's truly astonishing is that Li Wei, as a human, possesses combat power that overwhelms all the Sekirei. Keep in mind, Sekirei are extraterrestrial life forms with a higher level of evolution, inherently stronger than humans. Yet, the power Li Wei is displaying is so immense that even she dares not claim to be his match. As the strongest among the Sekirei, if even she is no match for Li Wei, then who could possibly be?

Back then, it was thanks to her leading the first generation of the Punishment Team that MBI was able to repel the multinational coalition. It can be said that without her, there would be no MBI as we know it today.

In Misai's view, Li Wei truly possesses the power to change the world situation. If Li Wei were willing, he could become the next Mihiro, and perhaps even create new history, suppressing the entire world with his own power and achieving something even more terrifying than Mihiro.

When Li Wei and the Uranium Maiden entered Izumo Manor, they didn't fully reveal their identities, so Miya's understanding of them was limited. Miya didn't know that Li Wei was from another world; she assumed he was a powerful native of Earth who had kept a low profile.

Chapter 1. The Layout Begins

Not only were the two girls watching Li Wei perform his daily external training, but the hidden Song was also secretly observing Li Wei through the peephole that connected the room to the outside world.

At this moment, Li Wei was shirtless, wearing only trousers, and his bare feet were firmly planted on the ground. Every step he took was so light, yet he was able to leave clear footprints on the ground.

As Li Wei practiced his punches and kicks, his muscles changed shape with each movement, perfectly showcasing his physique.

This set of external training methods was modified by Li Wei himself based on the Bird Play. Although it is a dynamic exercise, it can achieve the effect of meditation and entering a state of deep concentration, which is quite beneficial to his own cultivation.

Moreover, after taking off her top, this set of health-preserving exercises can also show off her figure very well. Song is an old driver who likes to dabble in color. Although she is a complete novice with no practical experience, she is a "doctor" with rich theoretical knowledge. After all, there is all kinds of messy content on the Internet now. For her, who can roam freely on the Internet, it is too easy to acquire knowledge in this area.

After his scheduled rest period, Li Wei stopped practicing. He took two deep breaths to expel the stale air from his body, then walked over to the two girls, picked up his vest, and put it on. The tight-fitting vest showed off his physique beautifully.

Li Wei said, "I haven't heard anything from MBI these past few days. I wonder if they've released any new wagtails."

Miya said, "Adjusting a Sekirei is no easy task. The adjustment of each Sekirei can be said to be achieved by spending money. Even for MBI, it is not an easy task to complete the adjustment of a single Sekirei. If you want to find other Sekirei, you may have to go outside and try your luck to see if there are any Sekirei that have been released but are still unclaimed."

Meizai's suggestion came from the bottom of her heart, because she believed that Li Wei would win the final game, which was really just a "game" for him.

In Miya's view, ending this farce as soon as possible is not necessarily a bad thing. The only pity is that Hiroto has deeply bound himself to MBI's black technology creation, making it impossible for her to directly deal with him. This madman has set up a system similar to a deadly device. If he himself encounters any misfortune, he will drag the whole world down with him. So even if someone can end the game, they will not be able to directly punish Hiroto, the culprit who caused the Sekirei to suffer.

Li Wei said, "I will try to do it. To be honest, this so-called Wagtail Game, which makes girls participate in such a battle royale game, is disgusting. For some reason, I can't punish the mastermind behind it for the time being, but I can still do the job of saving the girls first."

Li Wei's words were extremely righteous and indignant; he was speaking to Song, who was hiding in the shadows.

Because of her experience at MBI, Song has very low trust in interpersonal relationships. The internet is a place that amplifies human desires. Spending a lot of time in her room and only using the internet to stay connected with the outside world, Song has absorbed too much negative energy and darkness from the internet. As a result, she is in a bad state and is quite wary.

After all, this is two years before the original storyline began, and there are certain differences between the Matsu of today and the Matsu of the original storyline. Two years is enough time for many things to change a person. The current Matsu is like a cactus, covered in thorns. If these thorns are not removed, approaching rashly will only hurt oneself.

Mizai said, "I hope you can do what you say. After all, wagtails are creatures that crave love. Not every wagtail is lucky enough to find its true home. It is even more painful to entrust one's heart to the wrong person. I believe you can do better than others."

Li Wei raised a finger and smiled confidently, "Of course. Grandma once said that I am the sun that gives sunshine to everyone, and as the sun, I naturally have to fulfill the duties of the sun."

Meizai wanted to complain in her heart. Li Wei often said things like "Grandma said," which made her a little curious about who Li Wei's grandmother was. After all, someone who could raise a monster like Li Wei could not be a simple person.

Li Wei stretched, his muscles and bones cracking and popping.

Li Wei is not in a hurry to find new wagtails, because there are very few wild wagtails left, and some of them are troubled children with personality problems. Approaching them rashly without a suitable opportunity would only backfire.

However, Li Wei also released a large number of puppet clones to maintain the situation, so as to prevent his intended Wagyu from encountering accidents or being contracted by others. At the same time, some of the puppet clones can also appear as villains to help him with his conquest.

Currently, we're in the very early, early stages of the Sekirei game, with a very limited number of Sekirei appearing. Even if Levi wants to begin his strategy, he doesn't have enough targets. Furthermore, the order in which MBI releases the Sekirei is random; they aren't released in a 3-4 order. Instead, whoever completes their adjustment first is released first, until all the Sekirei have been released.

Excluding the original Punishment Squad members No. to No., the number of Sekirei currently active outside can be counted on one hand.

It is precisely because of the lack of strategy guides that Li Wei specially created a puppet clone to act as the biggest villain. Only when enough external risks threaten the entire Sekirei Game will the Sekirei urgently need to find their own Reed Sprout, and this Reed Sprout must be reliable, otherwise they will only face certain death.

The organization created by the puppet clone was named "Snake" by Li Wei. The reason for this name is that snakes themselves have birds in their diet. Using snakes to hunt wagtails makes the organization seem more sinister and evil.

The combatants of this organization are all half-human, half-machine beings. For Li Wei, it was very simple to mechanize his puppet clones. He imitated Raiden from Metal Gear Solid and transformed his puppet clones into various kinds of cyborgs. These cyborgs were indeed weaker than the original body, but they were enough to suppress any Sekirei except for Miya.

Currently, the Snake Organization is not yet ready to make its debut. After all, a full-fledged performance requires a complete organizational structure, a unified organizational action plan, a reasonable ultimate goal, secret bases located around the world, a large number of combat personnel and intelligence agents, a reasonable network of financial and logistical personnel, and even more hidden social relationships.

To put on a convincing act, to build a massive, evil organization from the ground up in such a short time—only someone like Li Wei could pull that off.

Chapter 4. Brief Encounter

As time passed, MBI still hadn't released any new Sekirei. The origami cranes that Li Wei had placed inside MBI relayed their internal information: an accident had recently occurred in MBI's laboratory, resulting in the destruction of important equipment. Until new equipment arrived, the Sekirei adjustment work had to be suspended.

However, this gave Li Wei relatively ample time. Taking advantage of the fact that the MBI's Wagyu Project was suspended during this period, Li Wei's puppet clone had already set up the headquarters of the Snake Organization in Gamas, North America.

The Snake Organization's various secret bases around the world have been completed one after another. Even in the Arctic and Antarctic, Levi built bases, and each base was carefully arranged to ensure that no one would notice any flaws.

At the same time, using mind control spells, Li Wei's puppet clones quickly constructed a hidden network of social relationships, disguising the creation of this network as occurring before the 1970s, at least forty years ago.

After all, a newly established organization, even with ample financial backing, cannot expand to a large scale in a short period of time, unless it has a national background and is backed by a major rogue state.

It's quite reasonable that a mysterious and evil organization without a powerful gangster background took decades to grow to its current size.

After the Snake Organization was officially established, Li Wei did not intend to leave the organization empty. Occasionally, he would make his presence felt, which would also remind the wagtails that someone was watching them secretly.

........................

The puppet clone of "Anaconda" is a highly mechanized puppet clone. Now, using optical camouflage, it has infiltrated the MBI headquarters building.

What the anaconda wanted to do was simple: deliberately expose itself, cause a ruckus, and then leave triumphantly, thus announcing the existence of the Snake Organization.

The anaconda's design bears some resemblance to Samuel Rodriguez's "Thunder Sam" from Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance. Levi also incorporated some sci-fi elements of interstellar hamsters, making the anaconda's overall design look more futuristic and giving it a strange, alien-tech aesthetic.

The anaconda easily infiltrated the building. After all, with optical camouflage, sound-absorbing spells, heat-dissipating auxiliary spells, and illusions, the anaconda walked openly into the lobby and then climbed the stairs to the laboratory area on the upper floor.

The entire MBI building, from floor to floor, was an experimental area. After arriving at the designated location, the anaconda did not rush to act, but instead began to cast spells to affect specific targets.

........................

Since its inception, the MBI's Punishment Team has undergone several personnel changes. This directly subordinate unit of the MBI has members whose strength far surpasses that of ordinary Sekirei. Although the first and second generation members have basically left the MBI, the three members of the third generation Punishment Team are still far stronger than ordinary Sekirei.

When there are no missions, the three members of the Punishment Team, the Wagyu, will be on standby inside the MBI headquarters building. As the core of the entire enterprise, the MBI headquarters building hides too many secrets, so the defense here is particularly tight. On weekdays when there are no missions, the Punishment Team will always keep one member on duty at the headquarters to ensure the safety of the headquarters building.

The three team members are currently in their rest room, with Captain Karasuha looking at the latest fashion magazines. Although Sekirei possesses great power, she is not a heartless war machine. Sekirei also has her own hobbies and desires. Karasuha, for example, enjoys studying fashion and kendo. These two hobbies are very different in style, but they are both her interests.

The other two members, Red Wing and Gray Wing, were assigned to the later ranks, but they completed their adjustments very early and joined the punishment squad early on.

Graywing is a bizarre wagtail with short, silver hair and bandages all over its body. It uses its claws as weapons. Although it looks fierce, it is actually a very reclusive girl who loves playing games and watching TV dramas and variety shows.

Red Wing, on the other hand, is a somewhat lively girl. Currently, Captain Karasu is on duty, so she's taken her Reishi on a date. All three are Reishi, this Reishi named Ninomiya Kararou, a gay man who hates the world because of the accidental death of his lover. He possesses severe antisocial personality disorder, appearing perfectly normal on the surface, but his destructive desires are deeply hidden. He has fallen into madness due to the loss of someone important to him. This trait resonated with Karasu, which is why he was able to form a contract with a member of the Punishment Squad like Karasu.

Ya Yu put down the magazine in her hand. She was in a very bad mood. She didn't know why she was like this, but she had a premonition that something bad would happen soon. Her irritability was because of that problem that hadn't happened yet.

As her unease grew, Ya Yu picked up her weapon from the side, a samurai sword of regular length and shape, and left the cozy lounge. She quickly entered the elevator and set her floor to the entrance of the laboratory area.

As she stepped out of the elevator, the unease grew stronger. She felt as if something was lurking in the shadows, watching her. This feeling made her feel like she had a thorn in her side. Instantly, her eyes sharpened, and she placed her hand on the katana at her waist, ready to retaliate at the slightest provocation.

Just then, a researcher carrying documents passed by and saw the wary Ravenfeather, and was startled. Wagtails were powerful beings, and as a researcher here, he knew very well how powerful Ravenfeather was; it was a monster capable of fighting a modern army with its bare flesh and blood. Enraging such a monster meant that even Mihiroto couldn't save his life.

The male researcher stopped abruptly, barely daring to breathe, and asked cautiously, "Lord Ravenfeather, what's wrong?"

Raven Feather Hand remained on the hilt of his sword, lowered his body slightly, and said solemnly, "Don't speak, don't make any noise. I suspect someone has infiltrated this place, and I have to find that guy."

The male researcher felt his legs go weak, and his hands fell to the ground. In that instant, Raven instinctively dodged to the side. Where she had been standing, there were several strands of severed silk and the corner of her uniform. If she hadn't dodged, she would have been caught off guard and attacked.

Raven Feather took out some quicklime from the small cloth bag at her waist and sprinkled it into the space in front of her, revealing a vague human figure.

Chapter 1. The Intruders

Raven Feather wasn't angry at the sneak attack. She had been through too many battles and had used tricks like sneak attacks herself. So, the first feeling she had when she was attacked was alertness, not the rage of an ordinary person.

"You're quite capable to have infiltrated this place, but it seems your stealth technique has a weakness. At least once you're covered in something, your stealth isn't perfect anymore," Raven Feather said calmly after putting some distance between himself and his opponent.

The anaconda removed its optical camouflage, revealing its true form. Although it still had some quicklime stuck to its body, making it look somewhat disheveled, its high-tech armor still put pressure on Ravenfeather.

The male researcher beside him was so frightened that he wet his pants. It wasn't that he was a coward, but he knew that the two sides about to fight were non-human monsters with strength far exceeding that of ordinary people. If the two sides fought here, he would have absolutely no chance of survival. Whether he could even have a whole corpse would depend on luck.

The anaconda said, "I have considerable confidence in my invisibility skills, but I never expected that someone would be able to see through my disguise."

Raven Feather still wore a smile, but those who knew her well would know that the smile on her face indicated that she was in a bloodthirsty and warlike state, making her more dangerous than usual.

Raven Feather laughed, "I've just killed too many people, so I've become exceptionally sensitive to human presence. Although you seem to have turned yourself into a half-machine, you still retain your human side, and that's what exposes you."

Ravenfeather wasn't bragging; she was an extremely bloodthirsty individual. Back when the multinational coalition surrounded the island where the starship was located, she and the other members of the original Punishment Team engaged in a direct confrontation with the multinational coalition.

All sorts of aerial vehicles, amphibious landing craft, and large warships on the sea, including satellites in space, were handled by specialists. Her job was to kill as many enemy infantry units as possible, using massive casualties to intimidate them. She had a very satisfying battle, single-handedly reaping at least two thousand lives. The infantry that landed on the island were almost entirely wiped out by her.

Because she was already used to fighting, Ya Yu had no airs of being a master and would stop at nothing in battle, using all sorts of insidious methods with ease.

The anaconda said, "That's terrifying. I can feel a lot of vengeful spirits clinging to you. No wonder you're a member of the first generation of the Punishment Squad. But you alone can't hold me back."

The anaconda also drew its longsword. Although its shape was somewhat similar to a samurai sword, it was much thicker and sharper. It was a high-quality Miao sword, with electric sparks crackling around its blade, indicating that the weapon had the ability to paralyze enemies.

Karasu had already drawn her sword. She could sense that the enemy was unusual, so the quick-draw slash that she used to bully the weak was no longer applicable here.

Raven Feather said, "Judging from your appearance, you're no ordinary person. I'm very curious about why you infiltrated this place."

The anaconda said, "I'm not afraid to tell you why. We're here for the Sekirei. Mihiro's so-called Sekirei game is utterly stupid. These precious and exotic creatures are not meant to be used as game props. We're here to stop such a waste."

Ya Yu revealed a playful smile. She hadn't expected the other party to be so honest. The other party answered whatever she asked, which saved her a lot of trouble in interrogating. Even if she ultimately failed to keep the other party here, she wouldn't be completely dumbfounded without any information.

Raven Feather said, "It seems you guys know quite a bit about wagtails. It looks like there's a mole in the MBI."

The anaconda said, "These kinds of intelligence matters are beyond the knowledge of someone like me who is an informant. Perhaps there really is a mole within your ranks. MBI isn't a rock-solid entity. After all, there must be many people below that madman, Hiroto, who is probably quite displeased with him."

Raven Feather said, "This matter has nothing to do with me. I have many questions I want to ask you, but the following questions are quite sensitive, and I don't think you will say them directly. So I need to break your legs so that you can't escape."
