Chapter 899: An S-Class Hero Living in Poverty
One Punch World, City A.
Ever since the Space Monster Boros brought his Dark Matter Pirates to destroy the entire city, the headquarters of the Hero Association was simply rebuilt.
Today, the headquarters of the Hero Association is a steel fortress built with the assistance of the S-class hero Metal Knight, and there are roads around the headquarters to ensure that the heroes of the association headquarters can rush to the headquarters as quickly as possible and go to various places for support.
There are many cities in the One Punch World, but from City A to City Z, the later the letter of the city, the more desolate the area, and the higher the frequency of monsters.
Since experiencing major events such as the invasion of alien monsters and the fall of meteorites, those big names have now moved to City A for their own safety.
After all, City A is the most prosperous area among many cities, and the headquarters of the Hero Association is also built here, and there are also many heroes above Class A living in the headquarters of the association. City A has naturally become the safest city in everyone's mind.
City Z, in this world where monsters are rampant, is even known as the most terrifying city in an uninhabited area.
Because the frequency of monsters appearing here is as common as eating and sleeping every day. It would be abnormal if you didn't encounter a monster when walking on the road in City Z every day.
When the Hero Association receives reports of monsters appearing, it will usually send heroes with the right strength to fight.
But if the monster appears in City Z, the Hero Association even ignores it.
This is not to say that the Hero Association turns a blind eye to evil, but because monsters appear in various cities every day now. Instead of putting limited power in uninhabited areas like City Z, heroes should focus on those densely populated cities.
City Z has long been a disaster area where monsters frequently occur. The monsters there are almost impossible to eliminate, and even the Hero Association does not think that there are still people living in that area.
The main purpose of the Hero Association is to protect ordinary people from being harmed by monsters, and secondly to eliminate monsters, so in their eyes, City Z has actually long ceased to be an area where humans live.
In this city that was almost abandoned by the Hero Association, in an apartment building with almost no residents, there lived two S-class heroes and a bald man who was dressed as a B-class hero but whose strength far exceeded that of an S-class hero.
Early this morning, Yecheng and Bald Man, who had been cultivating immortals all night, were woken up by the wife Genos, because there was a press conference for a large game today.
As a senior otaku, Yecheng and Bald Man, who had a certain interest in games, were going to join in the fun last night.
"Genos, is this all we have for breakfast today?
Nutritional balance is very important... No, let alone considering the issue of nutrition, with just half a poached egg and half a piece of toast, it's even a problem to fill your stomach."
Genos, who has loaded the "Housework Encyclopedia", can be said to be a perfect wife... Oh no, an excellent housekeeper, who can go to the hall and the kitchen, and can even rub ghost-level monsters with aprons off.
Since Genos moved into his home, Yecheng has completely bid farewell to the life of eating instant noodles three times a day, because Genos's cooking skills have never let him down.
But after a whole night of cultivating immortals, Yecheng felt that his kidneys were hollowed out. Looking at the breakfast on the plate in front of him, his expression suddenly became a little dissatisfied.
Half a piece of toast and half an egg, they don't make those Western food that looks good but tastes bad, who can eat this stuff.
"Teacher Yecheng, I'm really sorry, but there is one thing I need to report to you, that is, our living expenses this month have begun to appear in an overdraft deficit state."
In theory, Yecheng and Genos are both S-class heroes, Saitama is also a B-class hero, and they live in Z City where the rent is almost free, so their lives should not be so embarrassing.
But the master and apprentice trio rarely accept the transfer orders from the Hero Association. Although they fight monsters every day, those monsters are all monsters in Z City. If they are not monsters registered by the Hero Association, they cannot get allowances and rewards.
Moreover, Yecheng and Saitama have been obsessed with various fighting games recently, so they have spent a lot of extra money, which has led to them being unable to eat recently.
"Damn it, when I lived alone before, although I was not well-fed, I was not so poor. It must be that you, the bald guy, eat too much, so you have made us all poor!"
Looking at the yawning bald guy next to him, Yecheng immediately took away half of the poached egg on Saitama's plate in a flash.
Seeing that his remaining little food was snatched away, the bald guy naturally fought back and snatched the toast from Yecheng's plate.
With more and more shared worlds, Yecheng's strength is no longer what it used to be. Saitama, who broke the limiter, has improved his strength quickly, but Yecheng, who has cheated, has improved his strength even more abnormally!
Before the bald guy's hand that was grabbing the toast bread was retracted, Yecheng grabbed his wrist with his backhand. After looking at each other, the two soon started to wrestle.
"Damn you bald guy, how dare you steal my toast!"
"What do you mean your toast? That's my toast! You stole my fried egg first, so you have to give me back my toast."
"What bullshit are you talking about? The reason we are living in such a difficult situation is because you eat too much.
In the past, I spent a little bit of savings on things like beef hotpot or takeout sushi. Rich people can't afford such a waste. "
Because the seafood monsters invaded the land before, Yoroki and Saitama were used to eating high-end seafood. Due to the difficulty of transitioning from luxury to frugality, they couldn't eat the usual discounted products and bean sprouts at that time, so they became bald. Confused, Ye Cheng agreed without hesitation.
Genos originally wanted to remind him, but when he thought that the two teachers had no objections, how could he, as a disciple, disobey the two teachers' ideas, so he just let it go.
"You obviously agree with eating hot pot and sushi, and you eat no less than me.
I think the main reason is that you spend too much money on games. If we sell those games that we are tired of playing to second-hand stores, maybe we can survive for a while. "
The bald man turned his head and glanced at the shelf next to him, and immediately focused his attention on his collection.
"Are you kidding? These are my lifeblood! Do you know how much effort it takes for a senior geek to collect these things!"
Looking at Yoroki and Saitama who were fighting over half a piece of bread and half a poached egg, a lady wearing a green dress and short dark green shoulder-length hair, who looked and had a very amazing figure, couldn't help but let out a big sigh. Take a breath.
