It seemed his strength was still a bit lacking. He hadn't smashed the Deep Sea King's head off in one swing—only sent it flying.
But compared to that, he had solved the Deep Sea King while also clearing his name. There were one, two, three witnesses right there, ensuring that even if he joined the Hero Association, he would directly be S-Class.
Also, the skills the Eroge gave him were really useful.
Existence Weakening (75%) seemed to deceive the Deep Sea King's perception. Of course, it could also be said that Metal Bat was a larger target and was dealt with first. But it must be said that it gave Akira enough time and space to observe and wait for an opportunity.
God's Hand could not only double pleasure but also double pain. Bystander was the same. With the叠加, when the Deep Sea King felt pain, his movements also slowed, allowing Akira to seize the opportunity.
It was just that he hadn't used Backstabber this time for an additional 50% adaptive damage; otherwise, the scene should have been even more explosive.
In short, Akira was already very satisfied with achieving this level with 53.8 strength. And even at this strength, Akira had already perceived the airflow attached to his weapon.
That was sword qi.
The corpse softly fell. Akira threw the arm to the ground.
Then he moved the two S-Class heroes from the pit to the side of the sidewalk. Zombieman had been knocked flying while half-undressed and hadn't transformed into his angel form yet—his pants were still on. Metal Bat's arms hung limply; although his eyes were still open, he couldn't speak.
With the restriction of not being able to exceed twenty meters from the target, Akira couldn't take the two to a better place to rest. So he could only take them under a large tree.
At that moment, Suou Yuki's mouth finally closed.
She had seen it very clearly from behind the tree just now: tearing an arm off the monster, then swinging it to send the monster's head flying. That single blow was simply world-destroying, and it hadn't taken much time at all. The combat power displayed subverted her understanding of humans.
Could a human really achieve this?
Of course, S-Class heroes were also overpowered, but it always felt like something was missing.
But when she saw Akira's face clearly, she became confused again.
Wasn't this the guy who threw stones at the car just now? How could he…
Just as her mind was a mess and she felt her brain couldn't quite process it—
Atomic Samurai appeared before them.
"I am S-Class Hero, Atomic Samurai, ranked fourth. Thank you very much for your intervention."
Akira's strength had already earned Atomic Samurai's recognition—enough to make him instinctively use his Drawing Sword Slash. Just the power behind that head was enough to catch his eye. So his words were noticeably more polite than when he spoke to others.
"Hero Association people. I am Akira. I'll leave these two to you."
Akira was just worried about who would take care of these two 'light bulbs.' Now that the opportunity had arrived, he quickly passed the buck to go enjoy a world for two.
"But—"
Akira didn't let Atomic Samurai finish, interrupting him directly. "I have other things to attend to and need to take her with me first. I will go to the Hero Association. Goodbye."
As soon as he finished speaking, Akira disappeared from their sight with Suou Yuki.
So fast!
Atomic Samurai sighed and pressed the emergency help button.
"Other Hero Association members will come to rescue you. I'll go scout the surroundings first."
After he finished speaking, all that was left in Metal Bat's sight was the cold, icy rain, haphazardly hitting his face.
Akira went to the villa he had been rewarded with, only to find it in ruins.
He finally understood why he had to come over during the day.
Tsk~!
He finally got a mansion, and it was plagued with disasters? He had been thinking of establishing his base here.
Sighing, Akira continued to speed north.
His villa was originally located on the southern edge of the typhoon's landfall. It was now in the middle section of the typhoon's affected area, so the landfalling typhoon had naturally shifted quite a bit to the south. Therefore, heading northeast at this time was the fastest way to leave the storm's path.
"Hold on tight."
After a quick word, Akira held Suou Yuki and suddenly accelerated.
Although Akira's hand was protecting her, she still squeezed her legs together. Due to the excessive speed, she could only cling to Akira's chest.
At that moment, a strong "push-back feeling" came. The pressure on her chest made Suou Yuki feel a bit suffocated. The wet and sticky sensation also made her very uncomfortable.
However, the bumpy feeling of rapid movement gave her a strange sensation.
The rain was no longer cold. Her body warmed up.
But as it warmed up, it also seemed to become more sensitive.
How could this be?
How could she feel this way?
It was their first meeting. How could she…
But this Mr. Akira was so handsome and strong. She just didn't know why he had thrown stones at her earlier when they were outside.
When they stopped later, she definitely had to ask for a clear explanation.
Thinking this, Suou Yuki held on even tighter, afraid of falling off.
As Akira expected, after a few minutes, the rain lightened—though the wind was still blowing quite hard.
Suou Yuki landed and immediately sat down. The vibration frequency had been too fast just now. She was numb and felt a bit powerless. But she knew very well that she hadn't completely escaped danger yet.
Akira sat down with a thud, right next to her.
"Mr. Akira, can you tell me why you threw stones at the car I was in?"
Before Akira could speak, Suou Yuki seized the initiative. She let her hair down and wrung water from it. Her clothes were completely soaked. Through the translucent white, faint glimpses of her clear skin could be seen.
"You were in danger. I was trying to save you," Akira said, making up a lie with wide-open eyes.
Suou Yuki, as expected, looked curious. "Why would I be in danger while sitting in a car?"
"That's a secret I can't tell you. Anyway, in the end, I saved you and brought you out."
The outcome was indeed like that, but Suou Yuki was still very concerned about what this so-called danger was.
She suddenly remembered that the driver had said earlier that the car was manufactured by Metal Knight and had been returned to the factory the day before.
Could there be something wrong with the car?
After a frantic bit of overthinking, Suou Yuki's attention had largely shifted away from the stone-throwing incident.
After standing in the cold wind for half a minute, her hands and feet were icy cold, and she couldn't help but start to shiver.
Turning to look at Akira, she suddenly missed the feeling of being in his arms.
It was just... too bumpy.
But that couldn't be considered a flaw.
"So, what do we do next?"
Suou Yuki naturally hoped Akira could take her to a place with people, preferably somewhere she could take a hot bath.
But Akira said expressionlessly, "Wait for you to replenish my magic."
"Huh?"
Suou Yuki looked surprised: "What is replenishing magic? And why can I replenish your magic!"
