The Young Esper Hero

Chapter 20: The Class S Heroes

Monsters Association HQ No POV

Gyoro: the Hero Association has been greatly weakened by our onslaught, yet our greatest weapons still await their turn to participate. The Monster Association's overwhelming victory is imminent, O Monster King Orochi! The question is, now that they are off-balance, how will the Hero Association respond?

City C Super Stadium

Sourface; all right, Wade, I'm gonna pound the true spirit of martial arts into you. Come at me!

Wade: ok.

Wade opens his palm and hits Sourface's chest sending him out of the arena.

Announcer; oww! What can I say?! Single blow Crimson Cyclone! Our four semifinalists are now set! Which one will take home the championship?

Wade went back to his designated room as he stretched a bit and checked his arm.

Wade: it seems I have gotten stronger. Doing part of Saitama's workout when I'm in Whis's staff did pay off after the Hot Springs. He said it took three years but I feel like there is something else than just the training. I did feel stronger after my fight with Axel during the invasion. I need to ask Saitama what else did he do during his training years.

Sourface:<opens the door> what are you doing?! You're up!

Wade: yeah, yeah, I'm coming.

Sourface: you nervous?

Wade; a little why?

Sourface: if I hadn't dropped my guard during our bout, then I'd be the one trying to keep from trembling before the finals. The semifinal you just missed was incredible. Suiryu won again, and with a single kick! And now you have another dangerous guy to face. He's the dark horse of this whole tournament, if you ask me. Watch yourself out there, Wade.

Wade: I'll be fine, don't worry. I'm always careful.

City Q

Garou:<thought> Watchdog Man. It's time. Just you and me.

Unfortunately for Garou, monsters attacked. It wasn't the only place, Amai Mask's concert was being attacked as Amai Mask saw them coming.

City Y

Dogman: stop! Release those heroes! Now you will face Dogman!

Eyesight sends her snakes to bite Dogman and they did as Dogman shrugged it off.

Dogman: is that all your poison can do?

Eyesight; oh. So you're not a living creature.

Dogman: well, now that you've figured that out...

Eyesight; huh?

Dogman:<jumps to her boobs> self-destruct!

Dogman self destructs but Eyesight got a more snake like form that helped her tank the explosion.

Eyesight; the pup's pilot must be nearby.

Elsewhere

Some monsters got killed as Drive Knight killed them as he was in a centaur mode.

Drive Knight: monsters are appearing simultaneously in cities across the country. The Hero Association lacks intel. <transforms his right arm into a blade> choose. <aims his blade at the last Monster's face> my tactical transformation cause your death by maximum excruciation, or you die quickly and easily by revealing all you know.

With Amai Mask, he hand slashed several monsters to pieces.

Amai: you had the gall to interrupt my concert. Now you die. <one strike kills the last monster>
