Chapter 233

[13th Round] How to Catch a Tiger

The morning had come.

With the help of a ring of luck [condom] given to me by the Health Teacher, I helped Saintess C bring down her temperature rising due to her hangover.

I, the MAX-Cla.s.s Hero, despite being busy saving the world, still took care of the sick. I hoped she knew how honored she should feel

You are so shameless that I have nothing to say Woken up, Saintess C complained.

Are you alright?

I am not alright at all.

Well, at least you dont seem to have a hangover.

Can you stop changing the subject?! You got me drunk in that bar, and although its my own fault for falling asleep, I think its wrong for you to act like youve done nothing to an innocent girl!

But I didnt kill you.

What?

I still think its better than being picked up on the street by some slave trader who would sell you later at the Black Market, putting a slaves mark on your a.s.s with a hot iron. Your body and skin are perfectly unharmed.

You should be grateful that you were able to meet the morning in good health.

It seemed that this woman was too frivolous about this world. It was more profitable for a slave trader to sell a skilled male warrior, but that didnt mean that women were safe. Her outstanding beauty would be in demand.

How could I ignore such a rude remark from this shameless woman? She made a scandal over such a trifling matter when I took it upon myself to guard her all night.

Your example is too dark.

People should keep in mind the worst possible scenarios.

I always said those words to others, but I never thought Id hear others say them to me. Fine. Thank you for helping me meet this morning in good health, but dont expect any reward. I still dont understand why youre forcing me to thank you. She sounded cold.

Getting out of bed and picking up her clothes from the floor, she began to get dressed.

I didnt do anything. She took it all off herself, and my hands only helped a little.

Leaving already?

If I dont return soon, my companions will start to worry.

Not your rivals?

You keep saying words that hurt my pride, so Ill be honest with you. I liked you, so I pretended to fall asleep. Stop thinking that you saved me yesterday. She remained serious.

I shrugged playfully.

I already knew that.

Saintess Cs Status section in her stats didnt state Asleep, after all. That made it obvious that she was just pretending.

But she didnt know that I could see her stats. Hence, she believed she could fool me.

Still going to leave?

Yes. If I stay with you longer, I might become as weird as you. Dont tell anyone about last night! If you do, Ill really get p.i.s.sed off.

I thought Saintess C was hiding her liberated lifestyle because of her position, but it seemed she was already like that since the beginning.

I wont tell anyone. Theres nothing about it worth bragging anyway.

Why do you insist on hurting my pride until the very end? Youre so convincing that it makes me angry, too. Yes. Youre right. Its not something worth being proud of, but a lot of people in this world think too much about such an act. There was no need to worry about this back home.

Back home?

Oh! Youve untied my tongue again, Mr. Suspicious Angel. May the protection of G.o.d be with you.

Having cursed me, Saintess C departed.

But her gait was far from graceful.

I suppressed my laugh and offered to help her.

Need a hand?

Isnt that too much to ask for? Not that I dont like it A-anyway! Ill only accept your help until we reach the bottom of the stairs. Only until we reach the bottom of the stairs!

I grabbed her by the b.u.t.t, helping her down.

I immediately heard a groan.

l.u.s.tful Saintess, I understand the pain you are experiencing right now, The First Spirit said.

Saintess C blushed, quietly muttering to herself.

Beast

She complained even though I did her well; regardless I still helped Saintess C go down to the first floor.

With wobbly strides, she hurried away without looking back as if running away from someone.

So I saw off Saintess C.

Being a hero is a really heavy job.

My neck and shoulders ached because of the stress.

I wanted to lie on the bed and do nothing all day, but I needed to learn more about spatial transference from today.

I switched to the secondary education because of my son. I was told that if I graduated, I would be allowed to pull out whoever I wanted from the system.

The condition was to graduate.

They didnt tell me I couldnt leave the world of Fantasy.

I was going to rest on Earth while waiting for the other nine heroes to join forces and deal with the Five Great Disasters and the Demon Lord.

Query: But wouldnt it be better if you help them and graduate faster?

Thats such a great question, Trainee Teacher!

It wasnt that I didnt think about it, but it seemed to me that the faculty wouldnt let me graduate just like that.

Just like what they did in the elementary education course, they would find something to complain about.

So I would just leave my desk.

If I werent there, then there would be nothing to complain about.

Confusion: A student being absent from cla.s.s will be a problem

Dont worry about it, Trainee Teacher!

I would complete my task.

There were now ten heroes in total.

If I defeated one of the Five Great Disasters, the remaining nine heroes would be forced to deal with the others and the Demon Lord.

Out on the street, I decided to go to the Snow Woman.

Because to activate the magic of spatial transfer, the feathers from her wings were needed.

It wasnt difficult to find her.

Haha! Snow Woman, where are you in such a hurry?

Because wherever she went, my senior followed her.

I could even praise him for such persistence.

Although his perseverance only harmed the victim.

Im following the orders of the wizard. Im busy today, so please dont bother me.

Lets go together. Ill help you.

That wont be necessary. I can handle it myself.

He didnt give up and continued to follow her instead.

The Snow Woman felt uncomfortable about it, and his cheerleaders watching them had expressions so cold they looked like a.s.sa.s.sins.

I knew what would happen next.

The cheerleaders would spread rumors that the Snow Woman was a monster, which would cause a scandal. She would then run away from the village, and the dragon would eat her.

I had two choices at this moment:

1) Deal with everything before the scandal could break out.

2) Help after everything had happened.

The result would be the same. The only difference was the time of intervention.

If I now saved the Snow Woman from my seniors treacherous hands, I would look like the same l.u.s.tful male that the First Hero was in her perspective.

On the other hand, if I waited until she was in trouble before saving her, I would get her favor.

The better choice was so obvious I didnt even have to think about it.

Hey, clinger.

I didnt like sitting around and cowardly waiting for her to be in trouble.

But even when I called out to him, he just walked past me.

I hurriedly put my foot in front of him.

Hey, Im talking to you.

Arent you the angel I met at the entrance of this village? What business do you have with me this time?

He didnt trip over my leg, but he stopped chasing the Snow Woman.

He looked displeased by the fact that I prevented him from continuing his business.

Look back.

Back?

Hearing my words, Senior turned around and found his support group peering out of a nearby alley.

As soon as they realized he had noticed them, they went out in the open and waved their hands in greeting as if nothing happened.

As if they, too, had just seen him.

I dont understand why you told me to look back.

Do you really not understand?

Did nothing really pop into his head when he looked at those stalkers?

I really dont understand. If thats all you need from me, then Ill be on my way.

He quickly caught up with the Snow Woman, who had already covered a decent distance. He began to bother her again.

Wrinkles appeared on my forehead as soon as I saw that. I decided to check my seniors status.

Race: Chaos Man

Level: 999+

Job: Mercenary (Wealth Survival )

Skills: Chaos ZZ, Destruction ZZ, Oblivion ZZ, Gifted Z, Immortality Z

Status: Irritated, Magic Sword, Magic Beast, Horse Armor

The rank of his skills was enough for him to defeat the Snow King Es.h.i.+noff.

d.a.m.n

I wanted to fight with the First Heros past self, but I wasnt certain how that would affect the course of history, so I abandoned this idea.

It was impossible to physically force him to leave the Snow Woman alone. We needed to come up with a different method.

***

Perhaps it was due to system calibration?

Despite my intervention, the course of history hadnt changed.

Due to the dastardly rumors that my seniors cheerleaders spread, everyone learned that the Snow Woman was actually a harpy, forcing her to flee from the village.

Not everything remained the same, however.

Thanks to the measures taken, the Snow King Es.h.i.+noff didnt eat her, allowing her to safely reach the wizards refuge.

My predecessor, of course, followed her.

Ah! Sir Wizard, theres trouble! The villagers learned that I was a harpy. What should I do now? Sobbing, the Snow Woman burst into the wizards hideout and immediately asked for a solution.

With fatherly love on his face, he stroked her head then pointed to me, who had come here before her.

Dont worry about it too much. Say h.e.l.lo. From now on, he will keep an eye on you. This gentleman has not only deep pockets but also a heart.

Oh

The Snow Woman, her eye reddened since she had been crying for a while now, looked at me in confusion.

To calm her down, I showed her my Righteous Heros smile.

Hi, Miss Snow Woman. I am the MAX-Cla.s.s Hero, and Im interested in your feathers ability to be catalysts for spatial transference magic.

They said that if one wanted to catch a tiger, they would need to go into its lair.

I got the legal t.i.tle to her.

Miss Snow Woman! Dont run away and listen to me! You are not an evil monster but a lady who deserves to be loved Oh! You! The uninvited guest shouted as he entered the wizards hideout. He pointed at me with his finger.

That ill-mannered man was called the First Hero.

A savage who, by force, became a hero.

Miss Snow Woman, dont listen to him. You cant ignore or deny your real ident.i.ty. You are definitely a monster. And I received the rights to your possession from this n.o.ble wizard.

Ah

The Snow Woman continued to stare at me in confusion.

Smiling, I looked at my drooping senior and raised a question.

Do you need something from my monster? If not, leave the premises.

You..!

Veins popped out of the First Heros forehead as he showed his true colors.
