After being transferred to the waiting area, the first thing that appeared in front of Louis was a guidebook for the One Punch world — another stage of the Tower of Worlds.
Before reading it, Louis looked around. It was the same white waiting room as before, but this time, he was completely alone.
There was no system voice this time either, but on the far side of the room stood a massive door, several meters tall. A timer glowed above it, along with a few floating words:
[ Please pass through the door before the timer ends to clear this stage. Otherwise, your attempt will be considered a failure, and you will lose one life. ]
[ Number of players who started this mission: 2/3 ]
"So, I'm not doing this mission alone... someone got here before me," Louis muttered as he glanced at the timer.
"Still more than thirty minutes left. Let's check the system's guide before we begin."
He already knew this world very well.
"One Punch Man."
Yet he wanted to compare his own knowledge with the official information given to all players.
The guide began:
[ This world is highly advanced in technology compared to your real one.
In the One Punch world, humans constantly face deadly threats — most of them caused by powerful and dangerous monsters.
To defend against them, humans created the Hero Association, an organization of elite warriors chosen to protect the world.
However, when the monsters sensed danger from these heroes, they formed their own group — the Monster Association — to fight back and attempt to conquer the world.
Then came the classification system:
Monster Association Power Levels (from lowest to highest):
Wolf → Tiger → Demon → Dragon → God.
Hero Association Ranks (from lowest to highest):
D → C → B → A → S.]
[ This is the general background of the world. You can explore further secrets through your own adventure. ]
[ After entering the world, you must choose one faction: Heroes or Monsters. ]
[ Main Missions:
1. Join the Hero Association or the Monster Association. The higher your rank, the greater your reward.
2. Seek out the strongest being and defeat them by any means you see fit.
3. ??? ???]
[ To get a perfect evaluation, the player must discover Main Mission 3 on their own. ]
[ As a system aid, you can choose one ability and one item from the list provided. The stronger the choice, the heavier the restrictions on its use. ]
[ You cannot change your selection, even if you fail and return to this world later. ]
Louis rubbed his chin, thinking.
"Hmm... Mission 1 shouldn't be too hard. Instead of wasting time taking unreliable tests, I can just use that poor— ahem... that lucky person's opportunity and steal it."
He quickly formed a plan to clear the first mission with maximum efficiency.
"As for Mission 2..." he murmured, remembering his talk with his knight companion, Robert.
Robert was the most experienced member of his group — he had cleared fourteen worlds. But after losing two of his lives and failing to get an extra life card, he was declared a failure, abandoned by the system.
Still, he had earned an S-Rank evaluation in the One Punch world. He had managed this thanks to a secret strategy bought at a heavy price from the Maclaine family, a strategy he later shared freely with Louis.
"The strongest person in that world," Robert had said, "is the top S-Class hero of the Hero Association ' Blast '.
He's the only one officially acknowledged by both heroes and monsters as the mightiest.
But here's the catch — no one really knows who he is. Even the Hero Association has little information about him."
Louis smirked. "No one would ever imagine that the strongest being they're searching for... is just a bald guy from Class C."
As he was thinking that, someone else suddenly appeared in the waiting room.
The newcomer glanced briefly at Louis, then began interacting with his test interface for a few seconds. Without saying a word, he walked straight toward the massive door and entered the world.
"Well... that was strange," Louis muttered. "Did he already know everything about this world?"
He didn't think much of it and opened the system's list to find the best ability and item for his plan.
The list was filled with thousands of skills and artifacts from countless worlds — Zanpakutō, Devil Fruits, legendary swords, divine spears, and more. But most of them came with extreme restrictions that made them nearly useless for his current situation.
After searching for a while, Louis finally made his choice.
"Perfect. This fits my needs exactly."
He looked at the timer above the door and smiled coldly.
"Now then... it's show time."
