After all, the heroes in this world are somewhat out of touch with the masses.
Shen He has arranged everything for the follow-up.
How many heroes can be awakened depends on God's will.
However.
Before that, a certain bald boss couldn't stand it anymore.
"One month!" Saitama grabbed his bald head tightly, already furious, "I haven't seen a weirdo for a month! If this goes on, I will be expelled from the Hero Association!"
"Master." Genos suggested, "Maybe we can go to other cities to have a look."
"Run so far every day?" Saitama opened the door, "I can't stand it, I'm going to find that guy to argue! How can he finish all the work of other heroes alone!"
The more terrible thing than having no powerful enemies is that there are no enemies at all.
Saitama just went out.
He saw the man in the black robe walking back and forth at the door.
Such people can be seen almost everywhere in the city.
And they all look exactly the same.
"Hey."
Saitama strode over and lifted it up and put it on the man's shoulder.
Bang.
The figure suddenly disappeared in a burst of smoke.
"My clones are very weak." Another identical person came over, "With your strength, a slight touch will kill it."
Shen He was also full of surprise.
He really didn't expect Saitama to come to him on his own initiative.
"Is that so." Saitama breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought I could kill one by accident."
"So, what do you want from me?" Shen He looked Saitama up and down, "Others may not be able to see it, but I can see at a glance that no one in this world can withstand a punch from you."
"What!"
Saitama didn't say anything, but Genos, who was following behind him, changed his expression slightly.
This person can actually see the teacher's strength?
Was the teacher discovered during the previous battles?
"I'm not here to talk to you about this." Saitama didn't pay much attention to Shen He's words, "Can you give me a few monsters! The C-class heroes in this city are going to have no way to survive!"
"Because I have done all their work?" Shen He looked at Saitama with interest, "What if it is a B-class hero, or the S-class behind you? There are no monsters, so there is nothing to do?"
"Huh?" Saitama turned his head and glanced at his disciples, "It seems that Genos is indeed a little free these days."
"Because the monsters in this city have been dealt with by this person." Genos looked at Shen He, "Many people in the Hero Association have opinions about you, they are worried that you will go to other cities."
This is also expected.
There are already many heroes in the Hero Association who become heroes for vanity.
However, Shen He has accumulated a high reputation among the people.
At least in this city.
Shen He has seriously squeezed the status of heroes.
"This kind of day will not last long." Shen He shook his head, "Because I am about to die."
"..."
Saitama and Genos just looked at him.
"Are you kidding?" Genos's metal eyes began to scan. "Just from the condition of your clone's body, you are in good health."
"To be precise, it's the 'Chaldea Couple', the hero combination, that is going to die." Shen He suddenly waved his hand, "Come with me."
Saitama thought for a while with his bald head and followed.
On the street, Shen He's figure was everywhere.
His figures greeted the pedestrians on the road cordially. Shen He could call out almost everyone's name, and even knew what was in their family.
Shen He chatted with drunken men, took photos with young ladies on the street, and played with little girls.
He was friends with everyone in this city.
This was Shen He's achievement in the past month.
"What do you think will happen to this city if my clone suddenly disappears now?" Shen He asked as he walked.
Saitama looked around curiously and didn't speak.
Genos thought for a while.
"People should be sad."
"That's right." Shen He nodded, "What happens after sadness?"
"After sadness..."
Genos was a little confused about what Shen He meant.
"She will miss you, I guess." Saitama suddenly spoke up, pointing to the smiling little girl not far away. "No matter what others say, this girl will definitely miss you very much."
"Yes." Shen He nodded and smiled. "I will leave a benchmark in people's hearts, a benchmark for the heroes they hope for... and also a benchmark for comparison with other heroes."
Like a flash of lightning, it flashed through Genos' mind.
He looked at Shen He's smile.
Then he looked at everything in front of him.
Suddenly, he seemed to understand.
"But not all other heroes can do it like you, with so many clones." Saitama pointed around.
"But there are many other heroes." Shen He kept smiling. "Everything I did was just a little thing, but it made me so loved by people. Those S-level heroes, who solved one monster after another, only made people admire their strength, not love them. Saitama, why do you think that is?"
"Isn't it obvious? Because you have done so much for them." Saitama saw it very clearly.
"You did all this just to target the Hero Association?" Genos suddenly stood in front of Shen He's clone, "Let people condemn the Hero Association because of you, is this your purpose?"
"I'm not that boring." Shen He laughed dumbly, "I just think that the gap between the heroes in this world and ordinary people is too far."
"But heroes of different levels do different things." Genos shook his head. "Let S-class heroes do such trivial things, who will be left to the powerful monsters?"
Like Genos himself.
It is impossible to do these trivial things.
"Genos." Saitama suddenly looked at Genos, "Why did you become a hero?"
"Teacher." Genos was a little ashamed, "To find the monster who destroyed my family back then."
"Is that so." Saitama was a little embarrassed, "It seems that neither of us is a qualified hero."
"Why?" Genos was stunned, "Teacher, you are so powerful."
In Genos's opinion, as a hero, no one has made greater contributions than the powerful teacher.
No matter what kind of monster or what kind of disaster, the teacher seems to be able to solve it.
"Because." Saitama touched his bald head, "A real hero should become a hero to help others, but you are for revenge, and I am just interested."
"..."
Genos opened his eyes wide at once.
So that's it!
He suddenly took out his notebook and wrote on it.
Shen He was speechless on the side.
He said so much, but it's not as interesting as Saitama's words?
However.
Shen He looked at Saitama again.
"It seems that you don't plan to change?"
"No, no." Saitama shook his head, "If it's not qualified, then it's not qualified. Go back, Genos."
"Teacher, but you still didn't find the monster today." Genos followed.
"If you can't find it, look for it tomorrow..."
Shen He stood there and looked at the backs of the two people.
Saitama.
It's really a hero driven by interest.
But he just needs to keep it like this. After all, he is so powerful that even if he wants to be a passionate hero, there is no enemy worthy of him.
Shen He looked up at the sky.
He has already felt that the meteorite is approaching.
...
Three days later.
The "Dragon" level alarm, which represents the destruction of a city, resounded throughout the city of Z.
The nearby S-level heroes were summoned, and the target was the huge meteorite from the sky.
Its landing power was enough to destroy the entire city.
And this day.
Shen He's clone appeared as usual, finding the panicked citizens one by one and comforting them.
After a month of affinity, the citizens were moved by him and gathered together.
A meteorite appeared.
Whether it was the S-class hero Silver Fang, the Metal Knight's New Metal, or Genos's full-strength attack, they were helpless against the meteorite, and the scene was desperate for a time.
And Shen He appeared before Saitama.
"Genos, do you remember what I said?"
One after another, the clones said goodbye to their respective people, and then rushed towards the high-rise building where Shen He's body was.
Genos looked at the tens of thousands of troops and was silent.
Shen He said that the hero combination "Chaldea Couple" was about to die.
He already had a feeling that Shen He wanted to do something.
It's just...
"Even if you sacrifice yourself, can you really save the city?" Genos couldn't help asking.
So many S-class heroes have already gone all out.
"Don't you still have your teacher?" Shen He gave a smile.
Then-
all the clones burned with red flames.
Under the gaze of the whole city, they rushed forward one after another and heroically rushed towards the meteorite that was falling rapidly from the sky.
One after another.
Like a moth to a flame.
Even a line of fire was formed, which was clearly visible in the bright daylight.
Finally,
at the moment when the main body also rushed forward, the meteorite cracked under such a continuous attack, exploded, and scattered into countless pieces, also falling to the ground like a cannonball.
"Wow."
Saitama, who was about to rush over, looked at this dazzling scene and could only make a strange sound.
So many small meteorites.
He seemed powerless.
But.
The sacred light of light gold bloomed from the center of the city, and everyone seemed to hear the girl's murmured prayers.
The meteorites hit the light and melted silently one by one.
The "Dragon" level disaster that should have destroyed the entire city did not damage the city at all.
No one was injured and no buildings were destroyed.
This is a miracle that has never happened since the establishment of the Hero Association.
It was done by two heroes who were not members of the association.
City Z was saved.
But the heroes of the "Chaldean couple" disappeared.
When people woke up the next day, they could no longer see the young man in the black robe on the streets, could no longer hear his gentle voice, and could not find anyone to turn to when they encountered difficulties.
Everything seemed to have returned to the way it was before the man appeared.
People could not help but feel at a loss.
After the strange man appeared, who could stop them from running away in panic?
...
Genos stayed in this sad city for two days.
Suddenly, he understood Shen He's intention.
What he wanted to change was never the system of the Hero Association, nor was it to let S-class heroes do these little things.
It was to change the attitude of heroes to become heroes.
Yes, it was just an attitude.
Heroes still do the same things as in the past, defeating monsters, and then gaining status and glory, but it should no longer be to defeat monsters for the sake of defeating monsters, but to fight to protect the people.
"I understand! Teacher!"
Genos quickly came to Saitama's house, wanting to share what he said with the teacher.
But as soon as he opened the door.
He saw that his teacher, Shen He, who should have died heroically, and a beautiful girl were sitting at the coffee table together.
Eating hot pot.
What's going on?
"Genos is here." Shen He greeted him kindly, "You came at the right time, this is a super delicious hot pot."
"Damn, another one is here to grab the food!" Saitama stared at Genos with a covetous look.
"What on earth is this... It smells so good."
Genos was surprised by the scene in front of him, and suddenly smelled the tempting fragrance.
Unconsciously, he sat down in front of the coffee table.
The electronic eye kept scanning the hot pot in front of him.
"Unknown ingredients, but extremely delicious."
This was the answer the scan gave him.
"You can tell this kind of thing just by smelling it!"
Saitama picked up the chopsticks directly, picked up a piece of fat meat, and stuffed it directly into his mouth without caring about the heat.
Super delicious!
Why haven't I eaten such delicious food before!
"This is carefully prepared by my cook." Shen He was quite proud, "We are almost tired of it."
"Then leave it to me."
Saitama stared at the piece of meat picked up by Shen He with red eyes.
"Haha." Shen He just sneered at this.
Genos stared for a while, picked up the chopsticks and joined the snatching process.
In fact, there is no need to snatch at all.
Because Shen He's system backpack has enough.
Several people had a good meal, and Saitama lay on the ground with his stomach in his hands, his eyes dull.
He was thinking.
How can I face those ordinary foods in the future.
And Genos looked at Shen He.
"So, sir, your death is just an illusion?"
"I told you, the one who died is the hero." Shen He shook his head, "From now on, we will no longer be heroes in this world." "
...I see." Genos nodded, showing his understanding, "Using your fake death, you can influence other heroes as much as possible. However, whether it is the clone or the ability of the golden shield, it seems that they are unique to you. If you change your name next, it will be easy to be discovered."
Shen He was speechless.
"Genos, these two people will not be heroes in this world because they are not from this world at all." Saitama couldn't help it.
"Not from this world? Teacher, I don't understand." Genos looked confused.
This world has the concept of aliens, but not the concept of another world, because their own world is rich and colorful enough.
