Rescuing the Beauty

"Grumble--"

Saitama's stomach let out a mournful cry. He was lost. Completely lost. Not only could he not find his way to A City, he couldn't even find his own home. The money in his pocket was useless too, because the currency here seemed different from his, and the people here didn't recognize it.

So, after wandering for a whole day, Saitama's tragedy of going hungry began.

"So hungry, I want steak. So hungry, I want steak. Damn it, damn it! What is this place? Why did I end up here? The worst part is, my money is useless. If I'd known this would happen, I would never have saved. The money I saved is completely worthless now. Damn it, damn it!" Saitama looked at the wallet in his hand. It was bulging, making a clinking sound when shaken, full of coins, and all small denominations.

"Grumble--"

His stomach cried out again. Saitama's face immediately turned bitter. "This is bad, what should I do now? Not only is there nowhere to eat, but there's nowhere to sleep either."

"I was heading towards A City. And although I don't live in A City, I've been there many times, I shouldn't be lost."

"What's going on? Is it the work of a monster? But it doesn't feel like it."

"And it's been a whole day, and not a single monster has appeared. That's really strange, have all the monsters been hiding?"

Saitama muttered to himself. At this moment, he was still thinking about monsters. It was a pity that not only did he not encounter any monsters, he didn't even hear any news of monster appearances from anyone else. This was clearly not normal.

"Get lost, you bastards, scum! Get lost. Or I'll call the police."

Skye felt extremely unlucky. She was an orphan since childhood, raised in an orphanage. Although she was later adopted, her adoptive parents were only after the government subsidies and had no emotional investment in Skye at all. Even as a child, after being adopted, Skye basically became a maid for the adoptive family, a maid who was still underage.

With a rather unique personality, Skye had run away from her adoptive family more than once. But because she was a minor, she was sent to different families for adoption again and again. But tragically, none of those families were qualified, or rather, none of those families truly treated her as family.

So, after experiencing many things, Skye silently saved money by all means. She looked forward to leaving the adoptive family once she became an adult and living on her own.

Skye felt she could live well on her own, after all, in the adoptive families, she was almost a full-time maid. Doing chores, cooking, even being a punching bag for their anger – these were her status. Eventually, the nominal older brother in her last adoptive family even wanted to do something unspeakable to her. It disgusted Skye to the point of nausea. That guy should look in the mirror; fat, ugly, and useless, and he wanted to take her first time?

Finally able to leave that detestable family, Skye eagerly grabbed her luggage and all her savings and ran out of the foster home, even though it was already late at night. But it didn't matter, because her new place, she had already rented it in advance.

However, when one is unlucky, don't expect their luck to suddenly turn good. It's like a non-European server player, don't believe you'll suddenly become a European server player, because it's simply impossible.

So, Skye was very unlucky and was cornered by a group of thugs here.

"Call the police? Hahaha, do you think we'll give you a chance to call the police? Little girl, quickly hand over your money. Hmm, your clothes are a bit unfashionable, but your face—wow, you're a beauty? Guys, we're really lucky." A thug with a Peppa Pig tattoo looked Skye up and down. When he clearly saw Skye's face, he immediately whistled.

Next to the Peppa Pig tattoo was a guy with a GG Bond tattoo. When this guy saw Skye's face, he got all excited. Honestly, they had never played with such a beauty before.

Skye looked at these thugs with ill intentions, a flicker of fear in her eyes. Although her personality was stubborn, she was ultimately just an ordinary girl. When facing men, she didn't have much resistance, let alone more than one man in front of her. Skye was despairing.

"Um, excuse me, may I ask, what are you guys doing? Are you playing a game? Or are you bad guys?" A slightly dazed, even a bit dull voice sounded from behind the thugs.

Hearing this voice, Skye was surprised to find that behind the thugs, there was actually a man standing there, a man in strange clothes.

When the thugs heard the voice, their faces showed displeasure. After all, they had finally encountered a beauty, and just when they were about to enjoy themselves, someone jumped out to disturb them. One of the most enraged guys even casually pulled out a dagger. If the other party was foolish, he would definitely stab the dagger into the other person's body.

The thugs turned their heads and saw a bald head. Even in the dim night, it was a bit dazzling, as if it could shine. Behind the bald head was a dull and listless face, followed by a strange yellow tight-fitting suit and a cape.

"Baldy, get lost!"

"Just because you're bald, you think you're a bad guy? Look at his face?"

"What a ridiculous outfit. This guy is too funny."

"Are you trying to be a hero? Like a hero in a comic? Don't joke. This is hilarious."

Seeing Saitama's appearance, the thugs couldn't help but laugh. Of course, if they couldn't help it, they wouldn't hold back. As bad guys, they didn't care about others' feelings, so they laughed heartily. One guy even reached out to touch Saitama's bald head.

"Bang!"

"So, you're all bad guys then?"

Saitama punched the guy who reached for his head and sent him flying. At the same time, his question had just finished.

"Bastard!"

"Die!"

Seeing their comrade get hit, these thugs had no sense. They couldn't see the difference between them, shouting and charging at Saitama with daggers.

"Be careful!"

Skye quickly shouted. But just as she finished shouting "Be careful," the thug had already been dealt with by Saitama. All the thugs were sent flying and slammed against the wall. Although no one died, they were all lying on the ground, groaning in pain. And in front of Skye, only the bald man with his usual dull expression remained.

"Who, who are you?" Skye asked with a bit of confusion.

"Me? I'm just a hero for fun." Saitama said casually, while gently picking his ear with a finger. Knocking out those thugs in an instant was as easy as swatting a mosquito for him. No, that analogy was definitely not appropriate for Saitama.

"For fun? A hero?" Skye had never heard anyone say that before, but it felt... kind of cool. Well, because she had just been saved by a hero, Skye had a pretty good impression of Saitama. Even with his dull face, she found him a little handsome.

"Grumble~~~"

An uncontrollable groan came from Saitama's stomach again.
