One fine day later, after Steve destroyed the giant meteor.
After that massive show of power, Steve had received a message about his rank increase to rank 6!
Although, it's only one rank up, he was very satisfied with it.
At early morning, Steve decided to do push ups to see how much is his limit and also to see if he can improve his strength. Even a tiny bit of improvement would made him happy.
Unfortunately, at afternoon, he already did tens of thousands of push ups! And not once did he break a sweat or even felt tired!
Steve sighned and muttered, "Looks like I can only increase my strength by copying more powers. . ."
"Steve! Come, I cook something for you." Rhena said as he presented a new type of dishes.
Yesterday, Rhena told him that she planned of learning to be a chef to remove her boredom and surprisingly, she cooks well the first time she tried it!
Steve but widened his eyes in surprised, 'Oh right, I haven't eaten yet since this morning.'
He was so focused on training that he forgot to eat!
"Thanks for the food, Rhena!" Saying that, he started eating.
Indeed, it taste really great!
Steve was satisfied as he lean on the wall and starts patting his belly.
Rhena looked satisfied when she saw Steve enjoying the food she cooks and promised to cook more tomorrow.
. . .
Days passed by.
Steve haven't doing any missions anymore as it was very mentally tiring to go to another city to city just to beat monsters.
Though, he will accept it if the mission was inside the city Z and was very close to his apartment.
At afternoon.
Steve was laying and using Rhena lap as a pillow while watching some movies together with her.
In the past few days, they have become close to do this affectionate thing like a husband and wife!
Suddenly, Steve special phone made a beap sound.
What does this mean?
It meant that a new mission rank A to S has appeared!
"So the Deep Sea King has finally appeared. . ." He muttered as he quickly put down his phone.
Then, Steve goes to his closet and change the pajamas he was wearing to a new outdoor clothing.
"I'm going out Rhena, but I will be quick."
. . .
At City-J Evacuation Center.
The Deep See King was fighting with Genos.
It looks like ot was at disadvantage as Genos continuously attacking it and blasting it from corner to corner.
Genos then uses a large blast attack towards the Sea King, making it fly and hits the wall making it flown outside.
After the Deep See King was flown outside, it body suddenly regenerate back to its perfectly fine form. Not only that, but it's slowly getting bigger until it was two times bigger than it's first form.
It was much scarier than before!
Genos widened his eyes seeing this but before he could understand what's happening, he was hit by something massive and was thrown towards the wall.
The Sea King didn't wait for Genos to gain his steps as he run towards him and gave him another punch towards his stomach making him flown really far away.
It then jumped towards Genos but fortunately Genos has able to fly away by blasting himself away from the evacuation site.
"You're still alive! Impressive human!"
The Sea King was about to attack again when it suddenly noticed something coming.
It was Mumen Rider with Saitama riding on the back of the bike.
"Two punny human?"
The Sea King grabbed a debris from the road and throw it, targeting the two.
It's eyes widened as it saw Saitama grabbing the rocks like it was nothing.
"Ho? Another interesting human."
Genos suddenly made an attack on which the Sea King dodge without a problem.
"I'll start with you first."
Far away from them, Steve was sitting on the top edge of a building watching the whole fight with a drone flying on his side.
"Did you see that?" Steve asked.
"Yes, I admit that just by catching those rocks, I can say that his strength is qualified to be on high B rank or low A rank." The drone answered.
"Let's just watch it more."
Back to the fight.
As the Sea King was chasing Genos, Saitama of course didn't let his discipline get beat up.
He catched the punch that will likely destroy Genos.
The Sea King tried to pull away from the grip on his hand, but when it think it's no use, he use his other arm and punch Saitama.
The punch did no damage!
Using the arm, Saitama throw the Sea King up on which followed by a punch.
The Sea King torso was blown away and by a miracle, the rain stop.
"Genos, let's go!"
Seeing that, the surprised Mumen Rider immediately said, "Wait! Please allow me to buy you a food as a thanks for saving the city!"
. . .
At some building far away.
"I think that would atleast fit him on S-rank, what do you think?" Steve said.
"Hmm, I'm really surprised that someone with that strength wasn't well known yet. I will try to make him on top of A rank first as the people might get angry if we put him on S rank by just beating the Sea King."
"It's alright."
. . .
The next day.
It's a fine morning, Steve was watching some movies on Rhena legs while she was feeding him. When suddenly, a shout from another room resounded through the wall,
"Ehhh?! My rank increase that much?!"
Hearing that, Steve couldn't help but smile.

Rhena is slowly becoming Steve wife... Or she's already become one?
Saitama could buy his groceries now without fuming that the he can't get discounts on a supermarket sale.
Side note:
I noticed that the story pace is really fast so I will try to slow it down on upcoming chapters.
