Chapter 904: Settling in B-City

~13 min read 2,587 words

"What is it, calling me so late at night? Is there another disaster you can't handle? Honestly, isn't there anyone in the Association who can actually do their job—"

As soon as the call was connected, the female staff member from Hero Association Headquarters heard a voice full of complaints from the other end of the line.

She seemed to be able to see a psychic heroine in sleepwear, looking like a green-haired pomegranate girl, hands on her hips, chattering endlessly at her floating phone.

"Miss Tatsumaki, it's not about a disaster, but the branch head of Hero Association in B-City just contacted headquarters here and said something related to your younger sister."

"And you said before that anything involving your younger sister, we should help keep an eye on it, so that's why we contacted you."

An unclear transmission interrupted Tatsumaki's chattering; after two seconds of silence on the other end, the annoyed voice sounded again.

"Honestly, last time with the Special Express Train bombing incident, her ability wasn't enough and she didn't run away, instead she wanted to show off and be a hero—"

""

Tatsumaki complained about her sister just like an old mother complaining about her useless daughter, but after the complaining, she still asked the most crucial question.

"So, what stupid thing did my foolish sister do again, or what danger did she encounter?"

"Miss Tatsumaki, your sister didn't do anything stupid, nor did she encounter any danger; she just smashed an expensive esper training room at the B-City Association branch."

"Hah?"

The unclear transmission then went on and on about Hell's Blizzard from B-City recently participating in a beauty pageant and getting in touch with the newly promoted S-Class Rank 3 hero Flashy Flash to ask for advice.

Tatsumaki on the other end of the line raised her small eyebrows high, and only after the unclear transmission finished did she say: "Fine, I'll go to B-City and take a look."

Under the night sky, Tatsumaki, having already changed her clothes, flew toward B-City at extreme speed.

"This is the room where Blizzard trained with someone else?"

Upon arriving at the Hero Association B City Branch, Tatsumaki looked at the nearly shattered entire alloy wall inside the esper training room; she used her psychic power to test it and found that this shouldn't be something her sister in her cognition could produce.

"Yes."

"Is there a recording?"

"No, this is a training room; the Association won't specially monitor heroes' training situations."

The B-City branch head answered.

"Then what do you mean by contacting headquarters?"

"Only A-Class and above heroes can use the Association's training rooms for free, while B-Class needs to make an appointment and pay some symbolic training room usage fee."

"Logically speaking, since the training room was destroyed like this, we need to claim compensation from the user who hasn't reached A-Class hero—"

"What nonsense, your training room is no good, and you actually want to claim training room damage fees from my sister?"

Tatsumaki raised her volume all at once.

"Uh, Miss Tatsumaki, this training room was designed and built with our commission to Metal Knight; normally speaking, even if someone drove a tank inside and bombarded the wall with cannons, it wouldn't be possible to blast the training room wall into this state—"

"Hah, maybe that Metal Knight guy, when building the training room, to embezzle some construction costs deliberately cut corners and made a tofu-dreg project room to fool you."

"Ah, how is that possible—"

"How is it not possible, a tofu-dreg training room like this can be wrecked with just a few hits!"

Seems to prove this point, this psychic young lady directly used her psychic power to pull out the specially made metal ball embedded in the alloy wall.

Immediately after, came several loud bangs that made people cover their ears, but she smashed the remaining intact alloy walls all to pieces "Hah, see?"

She had an expression of 【I'm not wrong at all】, making the B-City Hero Association Branch Head silently swallow the words 【passed our own inspection】

into his stomach.

"Afterward, film the situation here, take it to find Metal Knight and claim compensation."

Tatsumaki pointed at the alloy wall behind her, whose damaged surface was no less than the damaged wall left by Hell's Blizzard with Broly's help, and gave the B-City branch head an idea.

As for this kind of blame-shifting statement, the B-City branch head could only nod repeatedly in agreement; as for settling accounts with Metal Knight, that was naturally impossible.

The B-City branch head's attitude made Tatsumaki very satisfied; she again successfully helped her carefree younger sister solve a troublesome matter.

But what made Tatsumaki a bit unhappy was that her younger sister wanted to improve her psychic power but didn't come to her, this powerful psychic sister, instead going to an outsider for psychic guidance.

Although the instructor was that newly promoted S-Class Rank 3 guy, in Tatsumaki's eyes, the Association's S-Class heroes were divided into two categories: one was her and Blast, the other was everyone else.

Indeed, in the trembling Tatsumaki's cognition, she and Blast were S-Class heroes in a class of their own; if there were a higher hero rank, she and Blast should be classified into an even higher tier.

It's just a pity the Association thought S-Class heroes were few in number and there was no need to specially set a new hero rank; this made Tatsumaki, who had proposed dividing a new rank several times, a bit disappointed.

"Flashy Flash, hmph~"

Tatsumaki watched the destruction effect she caused by using her psychic power to throw metal balls at the alloy wall; although in her heart she had to admit that guy she had never met should have some skill, on her face she showed a look of some contempt.

After leaving the Hero Association B City Branch, Tatsumaki didn't go to lecture her sister but flew straight back to her home in A-City to sleep.

"Miss Blizzard, then I'll come find you tomorrow."

"Okay, Mr. Broly, see you tomorrow."

Just as Tatsumaki arrived home, Broly and Hell's Blizzard were chatting and laughing as they walked out of a restaurant with good taste and affordable prices.

The next day, Broly ran to Hell's Blizzard's home and picked up this Blizzard Group boss, who had changed into sportswear and looked somewhat youthful and beautiful.

After arriving at the riverside open space, Broly and his disciple wife Vivian demonstrated a set of Qi Refining Fist together.

Simply put, Broly held her hand and led her in practicing Qi Refining Fist together; the posture looked quite intimate.

"Must it be like this?"

"Once Qi leaves the body, it easily dissipates, so practicing with bodies pressed together gives the best qi-guiding effect."

Broly answered seriously, and he wasn't lying; he just didn't tell everything, not telling Hell's Blizzard that her own mastery of Qi didn't require such intimate physical contact to lead others in practicing Qi.

Vivian first practiced a set of Qi Refining Fist; I don't know if it was because of smooth Qi and blood flow or some other reason; anyway, after being led by Broly to finish a set of Qi Refining Fist, her cheeks showed a rosy color, but she kept a straight face and seriously bowed to Broly: "Broly Teacher, thank you for your guidance today!"

And this kind of formal attitude also infected Hell's Blizzard.

【Others can practice normally like this, so why can't I?】

Thinking this, she didn't resist Broly's approach.

But, with the inner social safety distance broken, Broly's two-meter-tall sturdy physique approaching still made Hell's Blizzard feel an inexplicable pressure.

【If he wanted to kill me, at such a close distance, would I be done for without any ability to resist?!】

This is an instinctive defensive reaction of the human body towards dangerous things, just like when an ordinary person sees a venomous snake or a fierce beast, and discovers the other party is approaching them, the tense feeling produced in body and mind.

"Miss Fubuki, don't be nervous, hand over control of your body to me."

Broly's words rang gently by her ear, and Hell's Blizzard also gradually felt that in her grasped hands, as well as other parts of her body pressed close, the other party's Qi was flowing into her body.

"Mhm."

Hell's Blizzard responded, and strove to control her body to relax.

Sensing the softening of Hell's Blizzard's body in front of him, Broly nodded inwardly, and led the other party to seriously practice Qi Refining Fist.

Vivian rested at the side watching; although she kept telling herself that Broly Teacher, when facing a true capture target, was originally supposed to behave like this, in her heart she still couldn't help feeling a bit sour.

Similarly being a freshly guided situation, Broly Teacher's degree of attentiveness toward Hell's Blizzard, compared to herself, was simply worlds apart.

"Sigh~"

Vivian sighed.

【However, fortunately, I am now also a member of Crystal Palace, and Broly Teacher's true attitude toward me is also this intimate, even more intimate.】

She thought with some relief.

Right at this time, Hell's Blizzard who was being guided to practice Qi Refining Fist, her body stiffened again: "Mr. Broly, it seems you have something poking against my back."

"Uh, sorry, Qi Refining Fist relaxes muscles and promotes blood circulation to push Qi, Miss Fubuki is also a rather beautiful beauty, and I am a normal male, so it's inevitable to produce some reaction."

Pitching a tent like this is a double-edged sword to some extent; handle it badly and you might be treated as a lewd man, but handle it well and it might be taken as recognition of one's own charm.

"Can understand."

【Hell's Blizzard, Happiness Value 21, rising continuously】

And from Hell's Blizzard's tone, and the Crystal Palace Panel showing the Happiness Value in a rising state, one could know she not only wasn't angry, but even had a bit of small happiness.

"Do you need me to pull away, keep some distance?"

However, Broly not only didn't press his advantage, but instead asked.

"Although this will slightly affect the guiding Qi effect————"

He added another sentence.

"Uh, no need, this is an uncontrollable instinctive reaction, you can endure it, then I can too."

Without the added words, Hell's Blizzard might have asked Broly to keep a bit of distance.

But now, she indicated she could endure it.

Broly said nothing more, guiding Hell's Blizzard to continue practicing Qi Refining Fist.

After finishing Qi Refining Fist, Hell's Blizzard's face was also somewhat flushed.

That thing of a man's, she hadn't observed closely, but just from the sensation on her back, she could affirm Broly's scale was somewhat beyond the ordinary.

Hell's Blizzard's gaze would from time to time steal a glance toward Broly's crotch, this is just like when a man sees a beauty with surging waves, he will subconsciously pay attention to the surging waves, this is a normal reaction as the opposite sex.

"Miss Fubuki————"

Right when she was having her attention drawn by the bulging part, Broly's voice startled her awake.

"Ah, what?"

Hell's Blizzard panicked and averted her gaze, her mouth asking.

"We're going to buy a house and car later, you're a local of B-City, if you're free later, I want to invite you to come along, to help us assess things."

Broly pretended not to know her peeking just now, directly inviting.

"Uh, I happen to be free later, but buying a house, does Mr. Broly plan to live in B-City long-term?"

"Mhm, I plan to live in B-City for a period of time."

"What's the house budget, and what requirements do you have for the house?"

Hell's Blizzard gradually returned to normal, seriously helping to assess.

"Budget two hundred million, requirements-wise, as long as it's livable, privacy space a bit higher, has a place to practice fist and practice energy bullets is fine."

"If so, the only place in B-City that can meet your requirements is Lake View Villa District, but that place counts as a rich district, a two hundred million budget probably isn't enough."

"No matter, as long as the place is good, adding a bit more budget is fine, worst case recently I'll work hard, catch more wanted criminals, destroy some criminal organizations, earn some money."

"Okay, then later I'll take you guys over to look."

"Before looking at houses, let's buy a car first."

Returning to the hotel, eating breakfast together, Broly then brought Mosquito Girl and Vivian two external wives, following Hell's Blizzard to the car shop.

However, this top-spec luxury car Ani Z3 only had one in stock, so they just bought one in full, and the shop owner said various procedures could be supplemented later; after transferring registration to Vivian, Broly and company sat in the newly bought luxury car and left.

As for why Vivian and not Mosquito Girl, well, mainly because Mosquito Girl doesn't have a driver's license.

"The driver isn't as good as the passenger————"

Hearing Mosquito Girl's low muttering in the passenger seat, Vivian's mouth corner couldn't help twitching.

With a vehicle for transport, the group's speed became much slower.

Twenty minutes later, they arrived at the sales office of B-City Lake View Villa Rich District.

Hell's Blizzard seemed very familiar with this place; she skillfully led Broly and company inside, and inquired with staff about listed villas for sale.

"There are three villas that meet your requirements, let's go take a look."

Finishing talking with the salesperson, Hell's Blizzard walked back and said to Broly.

"Good."

Broly nodded and followed behind her, and with the newly bought luxury car acting as a front, no one came to talk about verifying funds.

"Miss Fubuki, I feel you seem very familiar with this place."

In the car, Broly asked Hell's Blizzard, but it was to probe some things about her.

"Mhm, familiar, before I considered buying a villa here as Blizzard Group's base."

"What happened after that?"

【Well, of course it was too expensive — discovered I was a broke bastard who couldn't afford it.】

"After that, I found this place wasn't good — the Blizzard Group is a hero club, after all, and needs to reach the crime scene as fast as possible when people need heroes."

Hell's Blizzard spoke to save face for herself.

"I see. Since you have experience considering bases, Miss Fubuki knows this place better. Then we'll entrust the house-buying entirely to you."

"Cough, cough——"

"Of course, please also listen appropriately to Mosquito Girl and Vivian's opinions. After all, they're also people who'll be living with me afterwards."

Hearing Mosquito Girl's cough, Broly made a timely addition.

【He even considers the assistant and disciple's opinions?】

"Also, Miss Fubuki, you'll probably come over to practice Qi with me afterwards, so you can also appropriately consider your own opinion."

【My opinion gets considered too?!】

Hell's Blizzard was a bit startled, but didn't deny it. Being able to freely enter and exit this kind of place was, for her personally and the Blizzard Group, also a rise in status.

The subsequent house-buying went very smoothly. After viewing and comparing three villas that met the requirements, they selected a lakeside villa worth 5

hundred million.

"This place has the most open view. Considering we possess flight capability, crossing the lake is actually faster for reaching the city center area."

"Uh, I can't fly."

"No problem, Vivian. Teacher will give you a yacht."
