Only after the dust settled did people have time to pay attention to the newly promoted S-Class Heroes.
Over-the-top descriptions of their abilities, records of their exploits that filled entire screens, and combat photos and videos taken through various channels began circulating online one after another. The spectators suddenly realized something.
Holy shit, these guys who looked so weird at first glance but were actually pretty damn cool...
Seemed ridiculously strong!!
That cocky-looking middle-aged samurai could slice a ten-meter-tall monster to pieces with a wave of a toothpick?
That low-profile, white-haired old man in A-Class, "Silver Fang," was actually an absolute beast of an old man with eight-pack abs!
"Metal Bat," who looked no different from the delinquents at their own schools, smashed a giant monster's skull with one swing.
These ferocious scenes quickly caused a huge stir, and goofy netizens all declared, "Coach, I want to learn that too!"
Coach: "Get lost! So do I!"
Some fans photoshopped candid close-ups of "Super Police," "Zombieman," and "Flashy Flash" together. The debut of this handsome trio soon stunned legions of fangirls, who donated generously while shipping every pairing until they practically passed out.
Soon, the S-Class Heroes' fame completely overshadowed that of ordinary Heroes. Whether fans were into strength, good looks, chicken memes, or little girls... everyone could find someone in this all-star team of powerhouses who suited their particular kink. As a result, the entire S-Class Hero roster enjoyed a surge in favorability, attracting fans of every kind.
In any case, this reform by the Hero Association achieved the results they wanted. People began paying more attention to the strong rather than those merely coasting along, and the Hero profession, which had already begun to rot, seemed to be getting back on track.
One day.
