Weak Hero Fanfiction

Pandora's Box 4

Donald's POV

There is a total of three shuttle patch rankers at Eunjang. Based on the behavior of that hooligan's friend, I don't believe I can count out their friends getting involved as well. I have no certain measurements as to how far the capabilities of the other two rankers span. 

First up on the list of menaces is Ben Park. He is capable of pushing himself to the limits even when he's bleeding out. I have no doubts that he was on the brink of death the last time I saw him. The idea that he could have gotten even stronger since I last saw him is definitely not out of the question. With the recent defeats of Jimmy Bae and Forest Lee, using any normal person to deal with him is the same as wasting chess pieces with no real benefits. It is safe to assume that he is the one in control of Eunjang. I'd have to use either myself or Jake Ji to get rid of him. 

And then there is that "White Mamba." I've been hearing about him for a while now. He's known for his use of weapons in battle. His most noteworthy achievement is that of the defeat of Wolf. He apparently received heavy damages while procuring that victory, even having to go to the hospital, so it can be assumed that his power level is around theirs. Using Jake Ji to take care of this one would be overkill. Perhaps I could find a way to puppet him into Miles Joo. Unfortunately, that implies that I could figure out where that prick is hiding so this method is unlikely to happen but could become relevant if I could find him. If Miles were to lose, it would have no loss to me or the Union so this is a very tempting thought. Maybe I could even find a way to turn Ben and White Mamba against each other. This would create problems within Eunjang and likely get rid of White Mamba altogether. I'll have to think more on this idea later... 

The third ranker is that "mad dog." I haven't heard anything big about him at all. The only thing that I've heard about him is that he's "a stupid tree who likes to kick." Jimmy Bae reportedly had no trouble knocking him around so I highly doubt that he'll be a big problem. 

I expect their friends to get involved when I start crushing all of them as well. They won't be a problem unless they have great numbers. I still feel like giving them a little credit at least for being as gutsy as they are. 

I will have to set a date for when I crush that stupid box. I'll also have to decide what I want to do about White Mamba,  all of the possibilities are just so delicious that I want to think more on it. I am leaning towards using him to cause internal problems though, haha~ Honestly, the thought of causing that box to cave in on itself is just so enticing. I could just focus on my work while Eunjang destroys itself. 

*sigh*

Unfortunately, I don't think that'd get rid of Ben Park. It might get rid of that "mad dog," but it'd still leave the main problem. 

Actually... imagine the mental state Ben Park would be in after having to crush one of his own friends. His overall moral would definitely be destroyed. The rumors always did say that he loses his shit whenever someone touches his friends. To be the one who did the hurting to his friends... Yes, it's perfect. He'll be too mentally distressed to fight correctly. 

Well then, it's settled. 

First thing's first, I need to find White Mamba. Figure out what would make him stab his friends in the back. He doesn't even have to join me, as long as he does his job then he has already served his purpose. 

I'm finally relaxed enough to work. I should also put in some time to studying. There is an upcoming Olympiad. Last year I got second place. I plan to reclaim my title as first this year and make up for last year's loss. Failure is unacceptable. This year's Olympiad belongs to me.

Gray's POV

"..."

It's truly a strange feeling. There's not a cloud in the sky and yet I can already feel the rain pouring. I can feel each individual raindrop hit and then disappear back into oblivion... Am I feeling sad? Strange.

My friends are celebrating my return and here I am sad about it. 

"It's a beautiful day today..."

Perhaps... it isn't sadness, but instead... worry.
