Chapter 160 - [? Round] Rankings Don’t Lie
“His ability isn’t a — kaargh?!”
“What the hell is this…?”
“Run! Somebody, call the teacher…kugh!”
I didn’t touch the basement of the dormitory crowded with F-Classes. I wasn’t rude enough to steal a goblin’s woman away. However, it took a very long time to deal with the 1st to 3rd floors above the ground. If the graduates had cowardly united and attacked me with the power of friendship, I would have been rounded up, but surprisingly, they were scattered.
And you guys are still heroes?
…I also didn’t forget to ask that as I put my hand on their lumbar spine. I think that’s why it took more time.
Thud.
But where there is a beginning, there is also an end. It ended with a graduate hiding under a changing room shelf hanging a sign saying she was taking a shower in the public bath on the first floor of the women’s dormitory.
“There is no progress.”
Don’t these social misfits learn? We met once about a week ago. At that time, a semi-forced defeat was arranged so that I was stuck in a MAX-Class dormitory. And this time, there was a much higher chance of defeat.
It was very simple logic. The target they were analyzing was the No. 1 S-Class. On the other hand, the number of graduates I had to deal with was just over 10,000, if both men and women were combined. It started when I was already lagging in information warfare. A week was enough time to figure out even the color of my underwear.
I was wary of it and expected an unfavorable fight, but I reflected on it when I realized that I had overlooked their lax attitude. Everyone had the same amount of time, but not everyone used it 100%. It was based on the standard for a diligent citizen of the Earth.
I overlooked the fact that they were social misfits left behind on Earth.
“Or are they looking down on me?”
‘Since the world revolves around me, I will win somehow!’ So maybe they took a week off due to that attitude. Yet to me, they were nothing but dust because the time and effort it took to knock them down were similar to cleaning the dust off the floor.
“Kang Han-soo. I was worried because I hadn’t seen you for a week, but I see I was so foolish to worry.”
Factoria sighed and came out of the shabby Class A dormitory.
“That look suits you.”
She looked very messed up.
“I don’t think that’s what the person who decorated the hallways of the women’s dormitory with blood and bones would say. I am a magician and businessman. I have to somehow proceed with my business and research even though I was suddenly got kidnapped to the festival…are you listening?”
“…What?”
“You were talking to me.”
“Was I?”
“Yes!”
“I’m kidding. I heard you right. I heard a man had pushed you?”
“I didn’t say that at all?! How do you twist it to get such an interpretation and result?!”
I closed my eyes and looked for signs. This was an issue that I must have pointed out right before moving from the men’s dormitory to the women’s: cleaning up the further trouble. Of course, in the end, they would be resurrected again. Still, it was necessary to weaken their will to retaliate by wiping out those who misunderstood me as the Demon King and weakening their abilities.
“Factoria. Who were the candidates I asked for before?”
I asked her to pick two graduates from the women’s dormitory who would rank 1st to 4th place above me.
“Ah! About that…I thought it was a joke, and I didn’t pay much attention to it…hoho! I mean it. Don’t you know modesty? Modesty! So please put down that right hand that went up like an automatic reflex!”
“What’s wrong with my right hand? People might raise their hands to scratch their hair because it’s itchy all of a sudden. I’m not an asshole who’d hit a woman just because I’m in a bad mood. How can I be seen as a good hero if you say that?! Are you going to make me upset?!”
“…Sorry for the misunderstanding.”
The second and third female graduates stayed out overnight while burning Factoria’s competitive spirit. It meant that they weren’t swept away with the rest of the dust. I felt a little relieved.
“I couldn’t tell the difference because their skills were all about the same, but I’m glad to hear that they aren’t here.”
“About the same?”
“Isn’t it obvious?”
How can a novice with an average experience of three years be able to scratch a veteran S-Class hero who had gone through everything before and after? No wonder I’m overwhelmingly stronger than them. And this gap would continue to widen until the day I return as a citizen of the beautiful green planet Earth.
“What…looking at this scene, I don’t think it’s wrong to say that they’re all too easy.”
Factoria looked disgusted at the hallway.
“It seems to have been sorted out, so I’m leaving. Ah! Factoria. Did you say you’re currently in second place? Go down to the third place. No, stay safe in fourth place. Keep in mind. I really won’t forgive you if you get caught after staying in the first or second place.”
“Yes. Don’t worry.”
*
After that, it went pretty smoothly. The first place in the female dormitory was told not to accumulate any more points, and the second and third were working hard to accumulate points outside. The men’s side went smoothly as well. Here too, I should have selected the friends with the highest scores in advance, but my hand slipped a little. So I randomly picked two that looked similar to a porter. Wasn’t life more about luck than skill?
The two lucky men rolled their eyes and looked at me with an expression like, “Why us?” So I gave them a chance to ask questions.
“Porter A, Porter B. I’ll raise you to the top! If you have any questions, raise the hand you want to be cut off.”
“…”
“…”
The B-Class graduates were shivering despite the warm weather. I was a little worried because I thought their bodies were too weak, but they were quick-witted enough.
“No questions? Great. You are great friends to be able to recognize an S-Class hero.”
Their ability to see my true self was enough to qualify them for the secondary education curriculum. What to do next?
“Graduate Student Kang Han-soo. Are you going out for a long-term stay with these B-Class people?”
It was to report to Elise, the maid.
I didn’t have to report it because I wanted to lower my score, but that wasn’t the case for the two porters who would become excellent secondary education students responsible for the future of the Fantasy Continent. They couldn’t lose even one point.
“Demon King Pedonar…!”
“Oh, my God! He’s really in the dorm…!”
The two porters who followed me to the MAX-Class dormitory were shocked to see the Demon King reading a book and lying comfortably on the soft sofa. Only then did the Demon King notice that guests had arrived.
“Cough! Welcome, heroes! I am the apex of demons who lives in the dormitory of the fearsome heroes, the Demon King Pedonar! If you have any business with me, you must defeat the house owner first.”
Why was he handing over the work of the Demon King to me?
“Porters, don’t worry about that person who resembles the Demon King. There is no common sense for a Demon King in pink pajamas who reads adult magazines in the heroes hideout, right? Let’s just think about the score.”
“That’s right…?”
“Is that so? Haha…”
The porters seemed to agree with me.
“Just trust and follow me. Then you can become the strongest on the planet. After that, you should set up a harem with pretty girls and be respectful to your parents. Me? Just don’t mind me. I am just an extra who will be weaker than you in about five years.”
We moved to the stable of the dormitory’s hanging garden. It was questionable why there was a unicorn that only carried virgins, but the blue wyvern next to it could be used. The porters who followed were stunned.
“How many beautiful mermaids and elves are there…?”
“Why is there such a big gap with our accommodations…?”
I didn’t like how they looked around like village bumpkins, but I was also really pathetic in the 1st playthrough. After all, I couldn’t take my eyes off Lanuvel’s ass, who was pretending to be cute. So let’s understand them with a mind like a frog working his way out of the well!
“Excuse me, heroes. Do you know how to drive a wyvern? All you need is a third Class license. Unicorns don’t need any license, but they insist on only carrying virgins even if they die…of course, I have a First Class license.”
The elf who managed the stables asked for my license.
“Is that necessary?”
“Ah! So you don’t know about the license. Then it’s difficult to drive right now…it’s fine. Even though this wyvern is a bit small, it can carry up to five people. If you just tell me where you’re going, I will drive it for you.”
“Then please take care of these two.”
“What about you, hero?”
“Me? I don’t ride cheap cars driven by other people.”
“Pardon?”
“My father has me!”
Green Cake, flirting with mermaids and elves in the air garden, spotted me and began to chase. Then he suddenly intervened in the conversation. He was now in human form, but actually, he was a green dragon. The wyvern that couldn’t exceed the size of a small hut even when fully grown was born insignificant, but Green Cake was different.
A true dragon. Even as a healthy child, he was already huge enough to beat an adult. It would be easy to carry thousands of humans on his back. And I didn’t even need a license.
“Green Cake, you must only look.”
“Ah! Are you taking me with you?”
“Yes. I have a friend I want to introduce to you.”
“If he is Father’s friend, I think he must be a very cool person.”
I used to be a bit bothered about being called ‘Father’ every time he spoke, but now wasn’t the time to discuss such trivial things. I focused my mind. I deliberately didn’t inform them in advance.
If I failed to summon my friend, I must create the wings of a righteous hero and fly away myself. That would create setbacks to my plan.
Power resonated toward the sky. It wasn’t the power of chaos. My smell. Like the radio frequency from a station, it shot across the Festival Continent. That friend would hear it if he weren’t sleeping peacefully.
And there would be a reaction.
“Bluuuuuuu…!”
“Uniiiii…!”
The wyvern and unicorn tied to the stables brayed excitedly. Their sharp instincts felt it.
“Father. Something is coming this way! Very fast!”
Green Cake looked up at the sky and spoke in exasperation. Like the two flying beasts, he felt it with his instinct.
“Here he comes.”
Wheeeeing~!
A typhoon hit, and the bright sky turned dark in an instant as a huge jet-black wall fell in front of the dormitory.
Kwoong!
The earth’s axis shook. It was also because the distance was too close, but it was so huge that it was impossible to see the whole scene at a glance. But I greeted him with pleasure.
“Hey, it’s been forty years, hasn’t it? How have you been?”
“Chaoooo.”
The jet-black wall answered me in a calm tone when I asked how he had been doing. But the atmosphere was shaken by his heavy cry.
“Noebius. Will you join us again? No, that’s a pointless question. You’re here to do that, aren’t you?
“Chaoooo…!”
The young Dragon King Noebius let out a powerful roar in affirmation. The maids with excellent abilities like Elise survived, but most elves and mermaids, who didn’t, fell to the floor or sank to the bottom of the water as their legs and tail fins lost strength.
How about the two porters?
“Noebius?! Don’t tell me, the Five Great Disasters?!”
“Mr. Number 1! We won’t try to defeat the Five Great Disasters, right?!”
They didn’t faint, but they panicked.
“Why are you making such a fuss like a novice who has never caught the Five Great Disasters? Everyone has one or two stuffed animals at home, right?”
“No.”
“Not at all.”
I glanced at the two who gave me such pathetic answers. There was still a chance to change things. Wouldn’t it be better to take the second and third place of the male dorm, which should have resurrected by now, in both hands and bring them here? But as expected, they were quick-witted.
“At that time, I had strong colleagues by my side!”
“I don’t even have a Holy Sword right now, so I can’t even use my special move!”
The two porters hurriedly made excuses. They honestly confessed that they couldn’t defeat the Five Great Disasters alone without the power of friendship or a beginner’s automatic weapon.
“What…okay. No one is strong from the start, after all.”
Of course, I had been pretty strong since I was a baby. The savages and empires of Fantasy who tried to kill this cute baby recognized by all the people of the Northern Continent were soundly beaten.
Anyway, I looked down at the elf tamer who was sitting on the floor. Did he still have enough determination to control a wyvern? Fortunately, he hadn’t fainted.
“Did you say your driver’s license is the First Class? I don’t know how great it is and how good your ability is, but don’t miss Noebius and follow us.”
“W-where are you going?”
That’s a very good question.
“A place where the chickens live.”
“Chaooooooo…”
Most of the grudges against the angels that tormented my dear comrade Noebius were settled. But it wasn’t 100%. That was important.
It piled up again after calculating it as welfare for forty years.
