Chapter 251: The New Recruit is a Shonata?
Chapter 251: The New Recruit is a Shonata?
As the bald man proudly held the promotion documents, Yecheng, standing beside him, was dumbfounded. He pulled Blizzard aside and whispered, "What's going on? Didn't you explain the situation to the Hero Association? Baldy defeated Boros, so how could he only be promoted to a B-Class Hero? This is ridiculous!"
Clearly, Yecheng believed Blizzard hadn't followed his instructions and informed the Hero Association about Baldy's achievements. Otherwise, with such a significant contribution, Baldy should have been promoted beyond just a B-Class Hero.
"Of course, I told them! But they just didn't believe me! After Saitama became a professional hero, he hardly performed any hero activities and never showed his strength. Everyone saw you fighting Boros, so they assumed Boros was defeated by you."
"I had to convince the Hero Association a lot for Saitama's promotion to B-Class. I explained that you played a significant role in defeating Boros, and Saitama was a great help in that battle."
Hearing Blizzard's explanation, Yecheng was speechless and covered his face. He suspected Baldy was cursed.
Previously, King took credit for his achievements, and now that Baldy had become a professional hero, it seemed like he was the one benefiting from it.
"Wait, you said they thought Boros was defeated by me, so my ranking must have increased again..."
Yecheng felt like the heavens were against him. He genuinely had no interest in becoming a hero, but despite his wishes, he ended up as one. Even if he had to be a hero, he preferred to be a low-ranked one, but his ranking skyrocketed like a rocket.
Yecheng was aware of the upcoming Hero Hunt and the Monster Association, led by the human monster Garou, who targeted high-ranking heroes from the Hero Association.
"Regarding that, I also feel it's a pity. Your ranking rose too quickly, so this time, your hero ranking didn't get a boost..."
"That's fantastic!" Blizzard, who thought Yecheng would be disappointed, was surprised to hear Yecheng's relieved sigh. He couldn't help but feel a little speechless.
Other heroes were trying various methods to increase their rankings, even the laid-back Saitama was no exception. But Yecheng, this guy, not only showed no interest in ranking up but also constantly thought about ways to lower his rank.
Yecheng initially thought he should console Baldy, but he later realized he was overthinking. Baldy was more than satisfied with the current outcome.
Although he was now the 101st B-Class Hero, a significant improvement from his previous last-place position in C-Class, he had jumped hundreds of ranks.
More importantly, Baldy remembered Yecheng's previous rank was at this position. After that promotion, Yecheng became an S-Class Hero.
So, Baldy's current understanding was similar. He believed that with the next promotion, he would most likely become an S-Class Hero.
Even though he was the last B-Class Hero, he still received the benefits of a B-Class ranking. He got double the daily wage compared to a C-Class Hero, and he no longer had to worry about completing trivial tasks.
Additionally, B-Class Heroes had unique hero titles, and with a title, Saitama would start gaining fans.
As he thought about soon having a cool title and becoming an idol-level hero worshipped by thousands, Baldy's expression couldn't help but show a hint of excitement.
Yecheng and Blizzard didn't interrupt Baldy's fantasy, and Yecheng even knew that once Baldy learned how "cool" his hero title was, he'd probably lose that excitement.
As Yecheng drifted off to sleep that night, he was once again pulled into that mysterious space in a dazed state.
When he saw the surroundings, Yecheng immediately felt thrilled, as he was well aware that another newcomer had activated their cheat.
Yecheng himself wasn't sure how many pieces he was broken into by the prison guard, but once other versions of himself from different worlds activated their cheats, they would be randomly drawn into this space.
When One-Punch Yecheng entered the space, he found that Death Yecheng and Uncle Yecheng were already there, enthusiastically pointing and commenting on a little kid.
There was no doubt that everyone in this space was Yecheng himself, and the figure that entered this time was merely a young boy around 7 or 8 years old.
"What! You're saying you're from the world of 'Wanting to Become a Shadow Power Seeker'?"
"Damn, I remember that it's a new anime, but in terms of the quality and quantity of beautiful girls, it's also considered top-notch in the multiverse anime genre! And at your age, is it a case of a small horse pulling a big cart? Damn, I'm so envious!"
Death Yecheng and Uncle Yecheng directly expressed their envy and jealousy towards the new arrival.
They were familiar with the anime "Wanting to Become a Shadow Power Seeker," and although they had only watched a short while before crossing over, it was still a new series.
However, there was no denying that the black-clad young ladies in the opening sequence were one hotter than the other, and their looks were one more stunning than the next.
"Small horse pulling a big cart? Stop joking, this is a proper anime, not a hentai. Where's the big cart scene coming from?
Since I don't know the plot of that world, I'm currently living on the edge.
But you've guessed wrong about one thing. I'm a shonata now, not because I turned into one, but because I crossed over too early.
I discovered that the protagonist of the World's Daughter is also a shonata like me."
Upon hearing Shadow Realm Night City's words, the other Yechengs also showed expressions of realization, as this situation of crossing over before the plotline was not uncommon.
In such cases, it's usually more advantageous for the crossers.
Since the story hasn't unfolded yet, they have ample time to plan or improve their strength.
However, the problem now is that they are all unfamiliar with the anime "Shadow Power Seekers." Even if they crossed over early, Yecheng currently has no idea what to do.
Unaware of the power level in this world, Yecheng was in a panic when he first became a shonata.
Although his family called him a "genius," it's common knowledge in other worlds that non-protagonist "geniuses" usually don't have a good ending.
Currently, the hardworking underdog is the trend, after all, in hot-blooded anime, these characters are more popular, and viewers enjoy watching the passionate underdogs who shout, "My fate is in my hands!"
