Starting with one punch, I'll stop being human.

"I'm sorry, sir, if you had told me earlier that you held grudges, I wouldn't have dared to do it..."

"One hundred push-ups, one hundred sit-ups, one hundred squats, plus a ten-kilometer run."

"How about it? It's very simple, right?"

King: "..."

Han Sen spoke casually, while King's powerful face remained expressionless as always.

In reality, a little voice inside him was frantically vomiting blood.

—This terrifying amount of training...it'll kill you, won't it?

Seeing that King did not move, Han Sen seemingly casually cracked his knuckles, which made a crisp popping sound that vibrated the air, like an invisible whip lashing at King's heart.

"King, this is a special training plan I meticulously designed for you all night long, called—'The Strongest Training Plan on Earth'!"

"You don't want all my hard work to go to waste, do you?"

Under Han Senhe's piercing gaze, King trembled and tears streamed down his face.

—Kill me…

┌(.Д.)┐

"Huff...huff...I can't go on...I really don't have a single drop left..."

On a park bench, King, like a salted fish out of water, rested his hands on his knees, panting heavily.

Sweat had completely soaked his brand-name sportswear, which clung tightly to his body, outlining his slightly flabby physique and even a bit of a belly due to a lack of exercise.

The sky was beginning to lighten, but King already felt that his soul was about to drift away with the darkness before dawn.

"Here, take a break."

Han Sen, who was standing next to him, handed him a bottle of sports drink that he had just bought from the vending machine: "See, if you grit your teeth, you can actually stick to it, right?"

"Don't underestimate your potential, King."

King gratefully accepted the drink, unscrewed the cap, and gulped down several mouthfuls to regain some energy. He forced a smile that looked more like a grimace: "Han Senjun, how about we leave it at that for today... let me get used to it."

Han Sen resolutely refused, saying righteously, "We've already completed more than half of the training. If we give up now, all our previous efforts will be wasted. Giving up halfway is not the act of a strong person!"

"King..." Han Sen said earnestly, his gaze intense, "Do you want to be a coward for the rest of your life, or become the true strongest on earth!"

King: "..."

—I just feel that no matter how much I train, I'll never become the true strongest person on Earth…

Just then, a helpless cry of alarm suddenly came from not far away.

"Eek! Pervert! You, you stay away!"

The two of them followed the sound.

A hot young woman with a high ponytail, wearing cool, tight-fitting sports shorts and a tank top, was seen being cornered in a park by a strange-looking man with a lewd appearance, trembling with fear!

It was a jackal-like monster standing upright, covered in gray fur, thin in build, and exuding a foul, fishy stench as if it hadn't showered in three months while holed up in a rented room.

The most peculiar thing was that above those wolf eyes that gleamed with a lewd light, there was a pair of clearly female... pink lace triangle panties, like a hat!

"Hehehe...Hey girl, don't go! What color are your panties? Come on, let me see!"

The lecherous monster let out an unpleasant, grating laugh, like sandpaper scraping, and reached out his claws to grab the girl's already revealing athletic shorts.

"Hand over your fragrant panties so I, this 'panty pervert' who's mutated from an extreme obsession with used lingerie, can have a good look!"

The girl with the ponytail who was jogging in the morning was so frightened that her face turned pale.

They were forced to retreat to the corner of the park's decorative wall, until they had nowhere left to go.

In despair, she clutched her heavy chest with both hands, closed her eyes tightly, and screamed, "Help! There's a pervert—!"

Although King was so tired he felt like he was falling apart, and his bones ached, he still struggled to sit up straight on the bench when he heard the girl scream.

Seeing that lecherous monster with panties on his head acting so brazenly, my heart started pounding uncontrollably.

The "Emperor Engine" is restarting!

King's face turned pale, but his mind was racing with calculations.

—It doesn't look very strong... Uh, should I...?

Having played the role of a top-tier powerhouse for many years, King has long since developed a set of strategies for dealing with monsters after countless brushes with death.

Often, as long as he remains silent and adopts that cold, powerful demeanor, most weaker monsters will likely be terrified by his thunderous heartbeat, or even faint on the spot.

However, Hansen clearly did not give him a chance to perform.

"Focus on training; I'll handle these little things."

Before he could finish speaking, Han Sen's figure blurred for a moment. King didn't even see what obvious movement he made before he had already made his move!

"……Um!?"

Just as the lecherous man was about to grope the young woman exercising in the morning, he suddenly felt a piercing gust of wind that could tear his eardrums, and instinctively looked up.

The last thing it ever saw in its life was a fist so fast that even its afterimage couldn't be caught, rapidly magnifying in its field of vision.

A sonic boom, like that of a supersonic fighter jet flying at low altitude, rang out over the park!

The perverted monster's head suddenly twisted and tilted back, as if it had been hit head-on by a speeding truck. The deformed head and upper body exploded instantly, turning into a spray of mosaic blood!

Chapter 39 The Diligent King

The perverted monster's remaining lower body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, tracing an arc in the air before crashing heavily onto the lawn a dozen meters away. His two thick thighs twitched twice before becoming completely still.

[Defeat the Tiger-level monster "Panty Pervert" and obtain 48 Origin Points!]

quick! too fast!

The entire process happened in the blink of an eye, far exceeding the reaction time of ordinary humans.

Not to mention the few joggers who were startled and watching from a distance, even King, who was closest, only saw a blur before his eyes, heard a loud bang, and then...

Nothing more.

Han Sen flicked his hand, which emitted blue smoke from friction with the air, as if he had casually swatted a fly.

The girl with the ponytail who was exercising in the morning felt a gust of wind blow past her ear. The expected assault did not occur, and she opened her beautiful eyes in surprise.

Then they saw a strange corpse lying on the ground not far ahead, with only half of its body remaining. It was dead and completely cold!

"We're...we're saved...?"

The girl with the ponytail, still shaken from her morning exercise, clutched her bouncy chest, which heaved from her heavy breathing; the curves outlined by her fitted sports vest were breathtaking.

She looked around in confusion, searching for her savior, when suddenly her eyes lit up.

Full of surprise and admiration, she took two long, fair, and firm legs and ran towards the park bench not far away.

Seeing this, Han Sen smiled slightly and gently reassured him, "It's alright now, no need to thank me... Hmm?"

The next moment, his smile froze on his face.

The ponytail-wearing young lady, her eyes sparkling with excitement, skipped over him and rushed to King, who was holding a drink and looking bewildered, giving him a deep 90-degree bow.

"Thank you for saving me, King!!"

Not only her, but several sharp-eyed passersby who were exercising nearby recognized King and gathered around him.

"I heard it! The roar of the 'Emperor's Engine' like the thunder of war drums! There's no mistake, it's that man!!" A middle-aged man wearing glasses excitedly pushed up his glasses.

"That's right, the three scars left from the legendary battle with a Dragon-level monster! It's King! It's the S-class hero King!" An older woman covered her mouth, her eyes filled with admiration.

"Wow! King is so cool! He took down the monster in an instant!" The young girls' eyes lit up.

"As expected of the strongest man on Earth! So reliable!"

The crowd immediately surrounded him, praising King and completely ignoring Han Sen, who had actually made the move.

Han Sen: "..."

Oh well, I'm used to it anyway.

King: "..."

(???')

Upon seeing the suddenly appearing deep cleavage, King's lips twitched slightly; he had no interest in appreciating this unexpected free perk.

After all, the admiring gazes of the crowd were mixed with Han Sen's ambiguous smile.

King suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, realizing that his back, which was already soaked with sweat from exercise, was now covered in an extra layer of cold sweat.

—Han Senjun, let me explain, I... was forced to work here!

(?д?;)

The sky was bright and the sun was just rising.

However, for King, this was just the beginning of a hellish day.

All morning, King's innate ability to attract monsters seemed to be activated, with remarkable effects.

He's like a mobile monster spawn point; every now and then, wild monsters jump out from the roadside bushes, manhole covers, or even behind billboards.

Most of these strange beings are wolf-level, but there are also several tiger-level beings and one unfortunate demon-level being.

This morning, Han Sen's main body alone gained almost more than the total gains of his clone army during the same period!

The clones scattered around the world: ...Don't we have any dignity?

Hansen: Tell Sykes I don't want to go back... and don't let Little Eyes look for me, I'm afraid King will misunderstand!

However, things didn't always go smoothly for Han Sen.

Because he had never registered as a hero, in the eyes of ordinary people, he was just a handsome, good-looking passerby.

Every time, when the victims and passersby recover from their shock, what they always see is King standing to the side with a cold expression but a panicked heart, his "Emperor Engine" roaring in his chest.

And lying nearby were the remains of one or more strange beings who had been instantly dealt with.

So, all the flowers, applause, thanks, and little notes handed to him by his female fans naturally ended up with King.

Even if one or two observant passersby noticed Han Sen's actions, they would either not have seen clearly or have a collective memory disorder, and would ultimately believe that it was King, the S-class hero who was also present, who dealt with the monster.

After all, isn't it normal for S-class heroes to attack so fast that they can't be seen?

This has happened more than three or five times along the way.

King was a little embarrassed at first, but when he realized that Han Sen didn't care, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

—I didn't want this to happen either...

City A, headquarters of the Heroes Association.

The duty officer of the Disaster Countermeasures Department, a middle-aged man with slightly thinning hair, had just brewed himself a strong cup of black coffee and was preparing to start his day's work when he received the latest intelligence summary from the M City Hero Association branch via an encrypted line.

"Hmm? King's activity report for today? It's not even eight o'clock this morning, and it's already here? That's incredibly efficient?"

The officer on duty adjusted his black-rimmed glasses and, with a hint of curiosity, opened the encrypted file marked "S-Class Hero King Special Project".

The report was concise and clear, yet each achievement was shocking:

At 6:10 AM, S-Class Hero King encountered the Wolf-level Monster "Panty Pervert" attacking female citizens exercising in the Wooden Man Park. King instantly defeated him!

"At 6:40, near the island in the middle of the park's lake, King was ambushed by the Tiger-level monster 'Kitchen Waste Skull Fish' from the lake. King instantly killed it, leaving no trace of its body!"

"At 6:50, on his way back, King encountered the Tiger-level monster 'Sludge Stinker,' which had overflowed from the sewers. King easily immobilized it with just his aura and then dealt with it effortlessly!"

At 7:22 AM, King defeated the Tiger-level monster "Mutant Giant Mosquito Swarm" on the city streets, protecting dozens of students on their way to school!

At 7:50, King subdued the monstrous "Crazy Ice Cream Truck," which had gone berserk for unknown reasons, in the commercial district, preventing a major traffic accident!

After seeing a series of impressive achievements, the nearly bald duty officer couldn't help but feel a deep sense of respect!

"so much?"

Chapter 40 The Desperate King

The duty officer, whose hairstyle resembled that of a powerful figure, exclaimed from the bottom of his heart, "Wow... Lord King actually cleared out more than ten weirdos this morning!"

"As expected of the strongest man on earth in M ​​City!!"
