Seeing Jason's confused look, the man just scratched his head regardless of the greasiness on his hands.

"How should I put it? The story is a bit long and complicated."

"To put it simply, the 'city that never sleeps' where you are is just a fragment of a 'certain city'. That city is called a 'huge city' by my brother, and it is a city that can continue to expand as time goes by.

"

"My brother, your uncle, accidentally broke into this city and took control of the city for a period of time. However, he finally chose to destroy the city."

The man said and sighed.

There seemed to be an inexplicable sadness.

"Why?"

Jason asked.

"Because that city is a 'vessel'. It keeps absorbing people into it, and then allows them to invade various worlds, act as its own nutrients, and allow itself to continue to grow. You wouldn't think that its growth is for no reason, right?

?”

"And in order to grow better, it also allows those who enter it to fight secretly, set some so-called role models, and stir people's hearts."

"Human?"

"It's always so complicated."

"It's easy to get confused."

"Those role models are being chased by others. In order to catch up faster, the chasers keep entering various worlds."

"They're non-stop."

"Rapid growth."

"Some have even become 'god'-like existences in ordinary people's perception."

"As a result, guess what happened?"

The man asked Jason.

While asking, he winked at Jason.

He doesn't look very smart.

"Being eaten."

Jason answered.

The man was stunned and scratched his head again.

He was ready to give Jason a hint.

However, unexpectedly, Jason guessed it directly.

Then, he burst out laughing.

"As expected of my son!"

"Like me!"

Facing such a shameless person, Jason subconsciously wanted to refute, but the man continued again without waiting for Jason to speak: "The huge city swallowed up those pursuers, and then established them as new ones.

'Role models' These role models do exist, but most of them are just fake! It's very vulnerable. At that time, my brother, your uncle, noticed something was wrong and took notice. At that time, he began to investigate secretly.

."

"As a result, with in-depth investigation, we discovered the clues."

"Then he destroyed the entire 'huge city'!"

"But the 'Huge City' is too huge and complicated. The power it possesses completely exceeds people's imagination. My brother's friends only know that my brother has become the mayor of the 'Huge City', but they don't know that for

Let them leave safely. My brother was experiencing the danger of a near-death situation every moment. Fortunately, he managed to survive and finally turned things around with the help of the 'psychic master'."

Having said this, the man sighed.

"However, because of the help of that 'psychic master', my brother owes a huge favor, so he has no choice but to help."

"With the seven of us."

"By the way, in addition to my elder brother, you have six uncles. I am the youngest one and the one whose power cannot be controlled. In order to make me truly 'independent', my brother had to 'cut off' the parts of me that I cannot control.

Then, you were born."

The man's words were a little confusing, but Jason understood most of them.

He inherited the 'excised' part.

It is precisely because of this part that he was attracted to the 'city that never sleeps'.

The ‘Sleepless City’ should be the fragments of the ‘huge city’ that was destroyed.

In order to destroy the 'huge city', the brother in front of them resorted to external forces, so that they had to return the favor.

It should be... like this, right?

Jason thought and looked at the nine-headed dragon that was being grilled.

The man immediately stood up and wanted to tear it apart.

But after noticing Jason's disgusted look, he immediately picked up a bunch of towels, wiped his hands, and then tore off another piece of barbecue.

"In fact, I gave up at the beginning."

"Because 'cutting off part' is really too bad."

"But, just in case, I made a prop and I hope you can use it to tide over the difficulties."

The man said and raised his hand.

The "Secret Book of Food" hidden on Jason's body appeared.

This made Jason frown.

“Am I being manipulated into ‘destiny’?”

Jason said this.

"No!"

"This is not manipulation, but love from daddy. If I don't take care of you, you will definitely die. After your will is devoured, only instinct is left."

"Become a puppet of desire!"

The man shook his head and said seriously.

Jason remained silent.

Then, he asked.

"Why me?"

"Since it's not blood, it's just 'will', anyone can do it, right?"

Jason was puzzled.

"Anyone can?"

"No!"

"Only those who are obsessed with eating can do it."

The man emphasized.

"So can my foodie friend!"

"At least, he loves food as much as I do!"

Jason mentioned Fat Man.

"he?"

"Although you both love food equally, but..."

"He's not in good health!"

The man said naturally.

Thinking of Fatty's ICU experience, Jason fell silent again.

"How many days do you think he can live in his body after arriving in the 'City that Never Sleeps'?"

"There is a high probability that he will be sent to the cannery in three days."

"So, my amputated 'will' chose you."

The man smiled.

"What if I die?"

Jason asked again.

The man who was still smiling a moment ago became silent at this moment.
