"You've become stronger."

"ha?"

Looking at Genos with some confusion, Duen didn't want to stay here any longer. It felt bad to be exposed to the rain all the time.

However, Genos obviously would not let Duan leave just like that.

"You were the one fighting the weirdo just now."

"That's right, but that weirdo's strength is still a bit inferior, and he is no match for me."

It's just a simple statement of facts, with no intention of showing off. Anyway, for these heroes, no matter what they see with their eyes or hear with their ears, they won't believe it unless they weigh it themselves.

It can be said that most heroes are idealists.

However, if these heroes were not idealists, they would not risk their lives to expel the weirdos.

In the process of expelling the monsters, many heroes died at the hands of the monsters.

He looked at Duen with a somewhat complicated look. In fact, the mechanical eyes could not express these emotions. As a modified person, except for the brain, all other parts of Genos have been transformed into machines.

No one can understand Genos's mood at this time. As a reformer, he wants to become stronger all the time. He just wants to one day find revenge on the enemy who destroyed his hometown.

But the road to becoming stronger was not as smooth as he imagined. Although he became a disciple of Teacher Saitama and joined the Heroes Association with his teacher, he could clearly feel his growth in these days.

However, compared with the person in front of me, this growth is almost negligible.

The two of them joined the Hero Association on the same day. He is a superior S-class hero, while the other is just an ordinary C-class hero.

At that time, although he could feel the threat from Duen, Genos was confident that he would be the first to win in the end.

The second time he met Du En was when he was facing the threat of a meteorite. At that time, his eyes were focused on Teacher Saitama and he did not notice Du En. Thinking about it now, Du En at that time had grown to a level that was not inferior to his own.

That's about it.

And now, Genos thought of the two life reactions shown in the detector just now. No matter which one he could easily defeat, one of them was actually Du En, and he defeated his opponent.

People who were once inferior to him have grown up enough to look down on him. What about himself? How much has he grown?

"If there's nothing wrong, I'll go home. I happen to be a little hungry."

Du En felt his hungry stomach. Before leaving home, he went to the refrigerator to take a look. There were some ingredients he left behind before traveling through time, which saved him the trouble of buying more.

Just when Du En was about to leave, Genos stopped him.

"Anything else?"

In Duan's memory, Genos was not the kind of person who would show off to strangers.

At least in Du En's impression, he and Genos could only be regarded as strangers who had met a few times.

Without hesitation, Genos expressed his request.

"I want to know the secret to your becoming stronger."

"Um?"

Seeing Du En's eyebrows raised, Genos seemed to know that his way of living was a bit presumptuous, so he changed his explanation.

"Can you fight me once? Give it your all and don't need to show mercy."

If it were another person, Du En would definitely treat him as a sand dollar, then turn around and leave.

But Genos was different. When he participated in the Hero Association's assessment for the first time, he originally thought that his strength would be the best among the heroes, and he would become an S-class hero.

As a time traveler, Du En certainly has a desire to show off.

However, Genos, who ran out midway, used his strength to slam him to the ground and rub him.

Having just returned from the world of Hero Academy, Du En thought he had become stronger. However, there are people outside the world, and the appearance of Genos told Du En that he was still far from being strong.

Unknowingly, I have experienced three worlds. Nine years have passed by in a blink of an eye. For people in this world, it is only two months, but for Du En, it is nine years.

How many nine years are there in life? It took nine years to achieve the results we have today. If Duen can't defeat even Genos, then we might as well give up on the main mission and cherish the next three years.

.

Therefore, in response to Genos's invitation to fight, Du En smiled, nodded, and did not refuse.

"Can."

…

After agreeing on a time and place for the battle with Genos, Duen went home.

Apparently he saw Du En's fatigue. Genos was a simple young man and would not do anything to take advantage of others.

After taking a comfortable hot bath, Du En took out the ingredients from the refrigerator to cook.

After staying in the world of RE0 for seven years, as a stay-at-home guy, my already good cooking skills have made great progress, and are no longer inferior to those of chefs in some hotels. Even Rem’s cooking skills have also improved over the years.

He learned it.

In the past two years, Rem's cooking skills have tended to be better than her own, which made Du En, the teacher, have to tighten his nerves for fear of being surpassed by accident.

After eating dinner and taking a rest, Du En was ready to rest and sleep. When he saw his hard wooden bed, Du En couldn't help but smile bitterly.

After all, I had been resting on a comfortable big bed before, and it was really a bit unaccustomed to be suddenly brought back to my original state.

"It's only been a few hours, and I already miss those two little girls."

Shaking his head, Du En lay on the bed and closed his eyes, and soon fell asleep.

However, Du En, who doesn't dream much, had a sweet dream at night, dreaming about Ram, dreaming about Rem, and dreaming about Emilia, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

When he woke up the next morning, Du En had to take off his wet pants and change into a pair of underwear.

Thirty-year-old magician, it’s you!

He yawned and washed up with his eyelids open a little sleepily. If it wasn't for an accident, he really didn't want to get up.

He also planned to give himself a day off to have a good rest.

However, just as he had prepared breakfast for himself, there was a knock on the entrance door.

"Who is it? Could it be another salesperson? They won't even let you go to a place like this. It's really hard for them."

Scratching his head with some dissatisfaction, Du En opened the door and said politely: "I don't need to buy insurance or subscribe to newspapers here. Please don't come here in the future."

However, when Du En poked his head out, he saw two smartly dressed men in black suits.

"Are you Du En, the eleventh B-class hero? Feel honored. Hell Fubuki-sama, the first B-class hero, wants to see you!"

The eleventh place in B-level? When did my ranking rise to the eleventh place in B-level? Didn’t I just get promoted to a B-level hero?

Du En remembered that the Hero Association sent him information about becoming a B-class hero, and the date was probably a week ago.

Moreover, Fubuki from hell? What does that woman want to do with me?

Du En still remembered that Fubuki from Hell was Tatsumaki's younger sister, so he ignored the two men in black suits in front of him and looked at the short-haired beauty behind them.

The ultimate weapon of the association, the only sister of the trembling Tatsumaki, the number one B-class hero, Fubuki of Hell.
