"Haa...."

"Oh, Suu-chan, are you tired?"

"No, I feel like I didn't get violent enough..."

"Isn't it usually the other way around..."

Watching Nana smiling happily as she retorted, Suupaa exhaled deeply once again.

The game itself felt comfortable to Suupaa, so it's more correct to say that she simply couldn't use up all of her energy rather than feeling unsatisfied.

She was too used to being alone. That's why a presence of a comrade was giving Suupaa more impact than she had ever imagined.

Anyway, HEROES easily won the main tournament.

This was due to them earning more points than expected due to a Babel Town-centered strategy that worked too well in the first game, and as a result, the second game is almost certain to be won regardless of what happens.

Their team gathered a total of 42 points, not quite one-third of the total, but close.

In the end, the second-place team had 20 points, making it a rather outstanding first-place finish in the C Block.

Even though the points ended up being much more spread out than Suupaa had expected, it was almost in line with Rinne's predictions.

The HEROES members... or, to be more specific, Suupaa and Nana were resting in a special room, leaving Rinne and Touka to do the winner's interview. The room they were in was a HEROES-only room that Rinne had set up on short notice.

Although Suupaa felt embarrassed when she learned that Rinne said she had prepared room for them, she was honestly grateful to be able to get away from the interview.

"You're getting a lot of attention, Nana."

Suupaa said these words while looking at the social networking site. Nana looked back at her curiously.

"Is that so?"

"Yeah, I think it's because of yesterday's broadcast that people are paying more attention to Nana than they are to me. [The superhuman girl who is the hot topic right now! Don't you curious about the result of her tournament?] something like that, you know?"

This is a typical click-generating bait caption, reposting yesterday's results with it. While not fake, there is notable content at all.

However, the fact that this kind of article is made is in itself proof that the public is paying attention.

Rinne has been doing this for the longest time. Every time Suupaa's became a topic of conversation for some reason or another, articles were created like bamboo shoots after the spring rain. {idiom: rapid growth after some meaningful event}

"I see..."

"You don't seem very interested in it."

"Yup. To be honest, I'm not."

Such effect became immediately apparent on social networking sites and online news, and the archive of yesterday's stream, which lasted less than an hour, has an incredible number of views.

Many people are probably eager to contact Nana herself. Some of them will be malicious enough to make negative content out of it.

Suupaa was once in such a position when she managed to get a hold of rank 1. Some articles were praising, and some were harshly condemning her.

Fortunately, Suupaa had cut off all means of contact, so the fire was extinguished before it became serious, but Nana's case was different.

She is a streamer, has a social networking account, a video posting account, and an official contact since she is a member of HEROES.
