I killed a human being.

Remarkably, I don’t even care.

I could never be a protagonist.

The opposite of a taker is not a taker.

It’s the giver.

That’s the protagonist.

A hero.

If I can’t be a hero.

If I can only continue to be deprived.

If I can’t be a giver.

I should at least be a “taker”ー

Minase Ginji did not pray. Instead of praying, he chose to kill.

His research in graduate school was indeed epoch-making, as he was able to reconstruct the heart and the entire “circulatory system” as an artificial one.

He saved many people, was admired by many, and the world “recognized” him.

…That was supposed to happen.

His research was easily deprived of him. In the end, he was expelled from the university because “he” stole it from his “professor”. Abandoned by his parents, he found a silly thread when he was in dire need of food for tomorrow.

“Out of these three abilities, which would you like to have?”

It was not nonsense.

But he had so much time to spare for nonsense that he was sick and tired of it.

“I’m probably going to go with liquefied metal.”

Can an individual who has attained formidable power indeed “continue to be human?”

This is a “human” story.
