《One Punch Man : The New Saitama》House of Evolution Part 3
Advertisement
Lightning Max and Stinger were respectively, the rank 10 and 19 A-Class Heroes, as such they weren't all that suprised to being used as cannon fodder until the S-Class Heroes came to save the situation. But this time the situation was a bit different.
A-City had been attacked, a demon level threat and a dragon level threat appeared in the city and started to randomly attack civilians. As A-Class Heroes they were supposed to be able to deal with this problem or atleast stop the mysterious beings until higher ranked Heroes came. However they hadn't even had the time to beat the demon level threat that the Dragon level threat had literally destroyed them. Be it in terms of speed or strengh, this Beast King was better than them and they knew it. That's why they simply decided to distract him while the civilians in the area escaped.
Unfortunately they couldn't keep up with this monster forever, they needed some reinforcements.
" HQ!! HQ!!! We have a bit of a problem here! Send some damn help or we're both dead!!!" Yelled Stinger as he held his phone with one hand while the other was used to protect himself with his spear. Beast King was throwing a flurry of slashes at Stinger while Lightning Max was getting a beating from Ground Dragon who was attacking him from the ground, appearing in an instant only to disappear the next in a tunnel that he dug himself.
" We are deeply sorry Stinger. Sadly the Heroes that we sent to help you were stopped by a group of monkeys-like mysterious beings. They appeared all of a sudden and started to slaughter the Heroes. Metal Knight is on his way to help them, he should arrive soon and when he's finished with those monsters, you'll get your reinforcement!" Said Bearded Worker , the staff member on the other end of the phone.

" The hell you mean?! We won't be able to survive until Metal knight shows himself!!! We need some help immedia-"
*BOOM!!!!*
Bearded Worker was quite stunned when he heard an explosion, quickly followed by a gasp coming from Stinger.
"Stinger? STINGER!!! What is going on ?! What was that?!" Yelled Bearded Worker, startling the other staff members around him.
"Hehehe.....Actually, nevermind. You don't need to send any help....Y-Yeah no need to" Said Stinger in a tone that showed how deeply shocked he was by what he was seeing. Bearded Worker had to supress his own gasp when he heard Stinger dropping the phone, which ended the call. A second after that happened, Bearded Worker yelled at the staff members around him, telling them to send a group of B-Class Heroes to see what was going on with Stinger and Lightning Max. Talking about them.....
"M-Max, i ain't dreaming right ? Did i just saw what i think i saw ?" Asked Stinger, his mouth trembling.
"..."
Hearing no answers from his fellow hero, Stinger turned around and saw that Lightning Max had actually fainted.
"* Chuckle* Damn, this is really a bad day. " Said Stinger as he fell on the ground, exhausted by the previous fight. He could afford to do that, considering that the mysterious being who had been destroying him for a while, was just sent flying into space.
" Well damn. I certainly didn't expect him to be sent flying so far away. I think i should just destroy monsters with my strikes instead of sending them flying away." Said the man that had sent Beast King flying into space with a single kick. Said man then gasped when he saw the state of his clothes.
" Aaaaaand i'm covered in blood...* Sigh* I should really change costume. A plain black hoodie with a black short, isn't the best costume i could've found." Said the man, before he turned around and saw the frozen Ground Dragon who looked like he was step away from having a heart attack. The man shrugged and suddenly appeared besides Ground Dragon, which made the mysterious being scream. A scream that didn't last long since a hand met with Ground Dragon's face, slapping him so hard that he had a red mark carved on his face.

" Shut up...." Said the man, grabbing the monter and putting him on his shoulder, before making his way towards Stinger.
" Hey, you must be Stinger, right ? " Asked the man, shaking Stinger out of his stupor.
" You....You...Y-Y-You...." Stuttered Stingee, unable to talk normally.
" Yes, i ? I what ? You know, i can't understand if you don't talk." Said the man, faking annoyance which made Stinger pale.
" Hahaha! I'm just kidding! Well, Stinger...You should get this monster to the hero association HQ." Said the man, dropping the monster on the ground and walking away. Stinger wanted to stop him, but couldn't even get a sound to come out of his mouth, he was just too shocked. So shocked that he passed out quickly after the man left, not knowing that Metal Knight had just arrived.
********************************
( In front of the now destroyed House of Evolution.)
" WHY DID YOU DO THAT YOU STUPID ROBOT?!!!!" Screamed Tatsumaki, her face just a mere inches away from Genos'. She was so angry that her face had got red.
" As i already said i'm not a robot but a cyborg, there's the difference which is why there are two different words instead of just one. Also i destroyed the House of Evolution because there wasn't anything interesting inside. I detected several figures inside the building, and they all had the same signature. Which means that they're the clones that Mosquito Girl talked about. I also detected a basement under the building with two signatures, one being the same as those i detected in the building and another one being unknown." Said Genos, stunning Tatsumaki who had the decency to blush.
" I-I knew it, okay ?! Hmph!!!" Snorted Tatsumaki as she flew towards the now destroyed building, searching for the entrance to the basement. She finally found it, but immediately after that, she heard a few voices that she knew all so well. Turning around, Tatsumaki saw that Amai Mask, Zombieman, Child Emperor , Superalloy Darkshine, Metal Bat and King just arrived.
" HEY YOU DUMBASSES!!! WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG?!!!" Yelled Tatsumaki, getting the attention of the heroes who were talking with Genos. Amai Mask smiled when he saw the destroyed building, while the other frowned when they saw Tatsumaki looking so angry. The Heroes walked to Tatsumaki as she stood in front of the entrance to the basement with a smug look on her face.
" Now that everyone is here, we can go and finish the House of Evolution" Said Child Emperor, getting nods from the heroes while Tatsumaki puffed her cheeks but didn't say anything. The heroes were about to enter when they heard a certain noise. A sound that made many of the heroes sweat.
* Thump Thump** Thump Thump*
" W-Well, after you of course..."

On the Road to Elspar (Book 1)
The year is 1329. The Huntress' War has entered its tenth year, inflaming competing nationalisms and pitting the Confederacy of Caldrein against one of the continent's superpowers, the Tenereian Union. Desperately outnumbered, the Confederacy has relied on the prowess of its famed Caldran mercenaries, with highly-trained and experienced warbands returning from foreign conflicts to the defense of their homeland, and it is on their backs that Caldrein has successfully mounted a valiant defense for a decade. But they are losing, and day by day, with all the grace of a sledgehammer, the vast Tenereian armies take one more bit of Caldran territory, one footstep at a time. Sixteen-year-old Neianne from the village of Caelon has submitted herself to Faulkren Academy, one of the centuries-old institutions established to train the next generation of Caldrein's elite soldiers of fortune, to learn the ways of wars for three years before embarking upon the defense of her country. Her dryad family once hailed from reclusive woodland communes isolated from Caldrein's complicated mainstream society, and her upbringing leaves the shy village girl unprepared to suddenly train alongside other apprentices from backgrounds as low as the dirty slums of Caldrein's cities and as high as the halls of aristocratic power. Yet the war is eroding the norms and traditions that the Caldran people have long considered part of their national mythos, and the tensions within the confederacy that have long simmered under the surface - race, class, community, identity - are slowly but surely dividing its people, and Neianne must grow and discover who she really is, even as the war that she is steadfastly training for comes to its inexorable end... On the Road to Elspar is a fantasy quest - a work of interactive fiction wherein readers get to vote on what happens next at critical junctures - that is the first entry in a story that follows Neianne of Caelon, which first began on July 20, 2016. Originally a three-part in medias res prologue to a larger story titled On the Elsparian Road, it was eventually decided that this section - which covers Neianne's three years at Faulkren Academy - become its own independent story due to length, structural, and accessibility reasons. Despite this being a reader interactive work of fiction, due to logistical and verification concerns, voting will only be counted on its thread on the forum Sufficient Velocity, where this story originally began. As such, the content here on Royal Road serves as a story-only archive. You are, of course, entirely welcome to enjoy On the Road to Elspar as a conventional work of fiction, just as you are welcome to comment, discuss, and provide critique. But if you would like to participate in the voting, then I would be honored to welcome you on Sufficient Velocity. To facilitate accessibility and to ensure the best reading experience, this story-only version of On the Road to Elspar will be updated at a periodic pace, even though further content exists, so as to not overwhelm new readers on Royal Road. If you enjoy this story, wish to binge it, and/or want to participate in voting immediately, you may of course read all additional content via the link provided above. This paragraph will be removed once the content on Royal Road catches up with what has already been posted in its original thread. Cover artwork by DreamSyndd.
