Chapter 233: Lolita Fanatics are Everywhere...
"So, let's raise our glasses to celebrate our 'Blizzard Group's' outstanding performance, the fame and prestige we've gained, and my promotion to the Hero Association's S-Class! Cheers!"
As Blizzard stood up with a glass of red wine, the other members of the Blizzard Group eagerly followed suit, their faces beaming with joy.
The Blizzard Group's headline-making feat was known to all, but the news of Night City's promotion and Blizzard's impending rank-up had not yet been made public, so others were still in the dark.
When they learned that Night City was about to skyrocket from the 101st B-Class Hero to the 10th S-Class Hero, the Blizzard Group members almost dropped their jaws in disbelief.
"I always knew Night City was exceptional. With his incredible strength, it was only a matter of time before his hero rank increased."
Compared to the others, Li Li's reaction to Night City's promotion to S-Class was one of surprise, but not as exaggerated.
During their encounter with the Lobster Monster, she and two other group members had realized that Night City was on a whole different level from them.
The victory banquet was a feast of celebration, and everyone ate to their heart's content. Even Eyelash and Glasses, who had previously held biases against Night City, now set aside their prejudices.
At this banquet, Blizzard also outlined a new strategic direction, aiming to make the Blizzard Group the strongest team within the Hero Association.
The formation of teams like the Blizzard Group was not uncommon in the Hero Association, and among the more powerful ones were the small team led by S-Class Hero Atomic Samurai and his disciples, as well as the "Vestment Faction" led by S-Class Hero Vestment Sage.
The previous Blizzard Group couldn't compare to these teams, especially since their leader, Blizzard, was only a B-Class Hero.
But now, the Blizzard Group had undergone a remarkable transformation. With Night City's promotion to S-Class and Blizzard's rise to the 2nd position in A-Class, their collective strength was on par with the other top teams.
Moreover, Night City had his own small team consisting of Genos and Saitama, further bolstering their overall power. As their strength soared, Blizzard's ego began to inflate...
Blizzard's grand vision ignited the enthusiasm of the Blizzard Group's junior members, making them feel as if they could take on Dragon-level monsters and stand shoulder-to-shoulder with S-Class Heroes.
They were already die-hard fans of Blizzard, and now, with his ambitious plans, they were even more captivated, as if they had been fed a feast without needing to eat anything else.
Amidst the group, one person stood out as an oddity, showing no interest in Blizzard's grandiose speech or the envisioned future. Instead, they were solely focused on enjoying the sumptuous meal.
That bastard Blizzard had lied to him, promising a new group member who was a beautiful young lady. But when Night City arrived, he realized it was all a ruse.
Well, it wasn't entirely accurate to say there was no new member, but the so-called new recruit was far from the "beauty" that had been promised!
"If I recall correctly, you're all A-Class Heroes, right? And you've joined the Blizzard Group?"
At the dinner table, while Night City indulged in the feast, there were others who were similarly uninterested in Blizzard's grand plans.
As Night City glanced at them, he realized he had encountered these individuals before.
They were A-Class Hero Venom Dart, ranked 10th; Lightning Max, ranked 20th; and Snake Fist Snake, ranked 38th.
Night City had crossed paths with them at the gymnasium, but since they were now wearing the Blizzard Group's black suits, he hadn't recognized them earlier.
After that incident, Hell Blizzard also invited us to join Blizzard Team, so after some consideration, we agreed."
There was no mistake; Venom Darts had previously looked down on the so-called Blizzard Team, even considering the organization formed by B-Rank Heroes to be nothing more than a mob.
However, during the Sea King battle, Blizzard, a mere woman, had impressed them.
Of course, the real reason Venom Darts joined the Blizzard Team was still because of Yecheng.
Even professional heroes, when fighting monsters, are bound to get injured, and it's not uncommon for them to retire due to severe injuries.
The healing ability Yecheng displayed in the gymnasium was truly astonishing and miraculous.
Setting aside Yecheng's personal strength, having such a special ability ensures that on the battlefield, he won't die or become disabled due to severe injuries.
This is a huge temptation for active professional heroes. So, when Blizzard invited Venom Darts under these conditions, they didn't hesitate for long and agreed immediately.
"That bastard Blizzard is using me as a signboard to recruit new members!
No wonder he was so generous last night and directly gave out benefits this morning..."
When they heard Yecheng's muttering, Venom Darts seemed to have understood some juicy gossip. They looked at Yecheng, then at Blizzard on the other side, and their faces instantly revealed a knowing expression.
They had been wondering why Yecheng, with his strength and special ability, would join a third-rate team like the Blizzard Team.
But now, seeing Blizzard's hot figure and charming appearance, they suddenly understood the reason!
If Yecheng and Blizzard had such a relationship, it wouldn't be strange for Yecheng to join the Blizzard Team.
They also understood why Blizzard chose Yecheng to face the threat of the Sea King instead of her sister, the Trembling Cyclone.
Yecheng was unaware that the few people in front of him had already imagined something incredible, and now he was only thinking about asking Blizzard for a raise.
To be fair, since they were using him as the Blizzard Team's signboard, asking for more endorsement fees wasn't unreasonable, right?
After the victory banquet, when a slightly tipsy Blizzard sat on Yecheng's motorcycle again, Venom Darts gave Yecheng a knowing look that any man would understand, leaving Yecheng completely confused.
Throughout the entire banquet, while the other original Blizzard Team members listened to Blizzard's empty promises, they had nothing better to do, so they started chatting, and that's how they became acquainted.
However, Yecheng didn't realize that Venom Darts' topic had started normally but then suddenly veered towards Cyclone.
They repeatedly emphasized that the Trembling Cyclone was a super sister complex and how strong she was.
As if Yecheng didn't know how strong Cyclone was! But what did it matter to him how powerful that little sister was? As long as he didn't provoke her, even if she was spoiled and willful, she wouldn't have any reason to cause him trouble, right?
As their conversation drew to a close, Yecheng's final conclusion was that there were indeed many little sister fanatics in this world...
Venom Darts sighed heavily when they saw Yecheng's indifferent attitude, believing they had done their part in informing him of Cyclone's danger.
But Yecheng didn't seem to care at all, which was probably the composure of a powerhouse...
