章節 42: Chapter 26
'I suspected that. Well, I would recommend you buy at least three Auto-Fill Water bottles, before entering in that dungeon.'
"Okay, take the money I have left and buy those water bottles."
'Will do. But they cost 100$ dollars each.'
"…I am not surprised anymore." Toya said, at this rate the system was doing daylight robbery. "Just buy em. And let's enter the dungeon."
'Are you prepared? And are you sure? The moment you enter the dungeon. Unless you hit the one-hour mark, you won't be able to exit the dungeon.' The system said in a warning voice.
Toya nodded.
'Okay, now think of a door and push the key in. It will open the dungeon portal. And you will disappear. Time passes the same way inside the dungeon. One hour in there is equal to one hour in the real world.'
Toya nodded again, proceeding with the steps. The moment he entered the dungeon, the hot air greeted him. It was as if, he was standing in a boiling inferno.

Meanwhile, one of the underground clubs were being raided by police and hero alike. There target was one girl who set up an illegal support gear shop in Sakai City. Her name was Killjoy.
The streets of the City were blocked by mutiple police cars, as the dark roads were illuminated by red and blue lights of their cars.
For capturing one girl this was way too much, but the Hero Commission had personally given an interest in capturing her. And so any new hero that wanted to get a good reputation joined the raid. And by doing that all the underground clubs retaliated, creating a messy situation.
The clubs were one of the last safe places for illegal activities after the age of heroes. And when the raid happened, several small-time gangs fought back with the police and heroes. But of course, the criminals were on the losing end, there were outnumbered by heroes quite a lot.
One of the hero teams was blocking the road that led to port. So that the criminals couldn't escape by the sea. They were only two who were here at the moment, the rest were stationed in different locations around the port.
"These damn misqitoes." One of the heroes cursed, as he slapped the air. Grumbling when he didn't find the target, and then he started itching the place where the mosquito bit him. "We shouldn't have taken the mission in the first place. We won't be getting any recognition for it anyway."
"Just shut up, Jack." Another hero spoke who was sitting on top of a nearby ship. "Look at the bright side, we don't need to fight villains if we just stay here."
Jack grumbled as he slapped another mosquito. Even though his quirk was transformation-based quirk that gave him the ability to turn into a humanoid lizard, he never figured out why he was a mosquito magnet.
He wasn't only pissed out about that. When Jack and his team took on the mission to help the Hero Commission. They thought that they would get some extra points in the upcoming hero rankings.
But when they got here, not only did they find a lot of heroes doing the same, but also, the fact that the Hero Commission had banned any media member from broadcasting the news.
Meaning no hero points. That made their whole voluntary work hopeless.
"And look at the bright side, we are so-called self-righteous heroes. So, protecting the port from unknown fishes is our duty." The second hero said, his voice oozed with sarcasm.
Suddenly the hero tech on Jack's ears ranged. He picked up immediately, "Yes, Eight-delta squad speaking."
"All Delta squad are to go towards Rik-street, there is an urgent threat that needs help." —The voice on the other side said, before ending the call.
"Oh Fuck!" The second hero said, "You just had to… now we are being called." No one of them wanted to risk their life. If a distress call was sent, that meant the villain was strong for the heroes nearby to handle.
Which meant danger. But as Jack had received the call, both the heroes had to show up. As they left, they missed the few black-shadows that had docked a nearby boat.
Soon the heroes would find that the distress signal was all but a lie. And the main target had escaped.
.
Killjoy looked at the city as the small boat speed up. The last of her associate waved at her boat as it went away.
Why did this happen? She asked herself, frustrated and angry. Many of his friends, customers, colleagues were captured due to the sudden raid. They weren't innocent by any means, still it made her feel bad. It was all because of her.
The bartender, one of his friends, that helped him set up her support gear shop was captured. It was all due to someone doing something that they shouldn't have.
And Killjoy could pretty much guess who it was. She gritted her teeth, remembering the scared black-haired man. "Why the fuck can't you stay out of my life." She said, her eyes filled with frustration and hate.
The Hero Commission was after her. And she was sure, getting captured by them was good as being dead. Unlike the upright heroes, the Commission was a wild card.
Now they wanted her. All of her year's worth of work was in that underground club basement. All of them were taken from her. Now she was homeless and broke.
She would leave the country somehow, but she needed cash for that. And she knew just the person who would pay for that.
Pulling out her phone, she tapped it as a holographic screen and keyboard greeted her. And she started working. The boat didn't need Helmsman, to begin with, she designed it that way, it would take her to a safe place. So now she could work on tracking the guy who made her life a living hell.
