Due to the sudden appearance of this Demonborn, everyone in the carriage, frightened, retreated to the furthest corner away from it. They all wished to be as far away from the Demonborn as possible, thinking that this would be relatively safer.
"Young man, hurry up and do something! Didn't you awaken your superpowers? Why are you squeezing with us ordinary people? Go and defeat him!" The crowd, huddled together in fear, shouted at the young man who had claimed to have awakened a superpower earlier.
However, the young man everyone was relying on had a miserable look on his face. He then opened his hand, pulled out a large clump of tissues, and scattered them above everyone's heads. "I can't do anything against it! My superpower is useless except for wiping off dust! So let me hide in here too. If any of you get scared and wet your pants, I can provide you with tissues to wipe..." The young man said as he tried to squeeze into a relatively safe position in the crowd.
Seeing that the only person with a superpower was useless, the people in the carriage wailed again. "Help! Is there any hero? Save us, please!" "Woo-woo, I don't want to die; I haven't been in love yet!" "Aw, I'm still a virgin!"
In the midst of the desperate crowd, the ugly stone man at the end of the carriage suddenly spoke. "Enough! I'm not a Demonborn! I'm a superpowered person!" The rough, uneven surface of the stone man's face seemed to lose a few more small stones due to his anger.
Hearing the stone man's words, the huddled crowd looked at each other, and then everyone seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and finally stood up. There was no need to be afraid if he wasn't a Demonborn! It was well known that Demonborn generally couldn't speak, and the Hero Association hadn't released any information about Demonborn with the ability to think and communicate. So if he could speak, then surely he wasn't a Demonborn.
"Oh, you should have said it earlier! We wouldn't have been so scared if we knew that you weren't a Demonborn. But, you really shouldn't go around scaring people just because you're ugly. By the way, what's your superpower? Turning yourself into this ugly form and scaring Demonborn to death? You're definitely more powerful than that young man who can just create tissues!" An elderly woman, who looked like she was on her way home after shopping, walked up to the stone man and patted him on the shoulder. Feeling his hard texture, she withdrew her hand with a look of disdain and reproachfully said.
However, the old woman failed to notice that as she spoke more, the stone man's already rough face appeared to be even more wrinkled.
"Fucking bullshit! I may not be a Demonborn, but I'm here to take revenge on society! Today, all of you will die!" The stone man roared angrily.
The next moment, the people in the carriage were silent for half a second, and then... "Help! Is there any hero? Save us, please!" "Woo-woo, I don't want to die, I haven't been in love yet!" "Aw, I'm still a virgin!"
The crowd once again retreated to the corner, and many people called out loudly, praying that some superhero nearby would come to save them. In today's world, while Demonborn are a common enemy of all humans, there are also many fallen superpowered individuals who use their extraordinary abilities to engage in illegal activities. Undoubtedly, the stone man in front of them was one of them.
"Why do you want to take revenge on society? No one here has wronged you. Why do you want to hurt us? Wuuwuu..." A good-looking girl, clinging tightly to her boyfriend's arm, cried and asked loudly.
However, the girl's action only enraged the already furious stone man even more. "That's right, none of you have wronged me! But, I hate you all, you damn couples and you beautiful women who only like good-looking guys and are obsessed with appearances!" The stone man roared, pointing his thick finger at the couple and several fashionable, cute, and attractive girls in the crowd.However, Liu XiYang, who was also similarly pointed at, forcefully suppressed the urge to punch this stone guy away, constantly reminding himself... don't get angry, he must be blind to mistake me for a woman, and there will be other superheroes to handle this, don't use superpowers anymore, it's okay Liu XiYang, it's okay.
Just then, the irritable stone man suddenly became emotionally down, and the uneven face made up of stones looked somewhat pitiable.
"Although I am a homebody... homebodies also have dreams, and I also fantasized about having a lovely girl with a wonderful romance! I know I'm not handsome enough, and I thought I might never get a girl's affection, but it wasn't until I saw the invincible existence, the strongest superhero 'Guang', that I realized that in addition to being handsome, having great power would also make lovely girls fascinated! So, I strove hard and diligently exercised every day to become strong!"
Wait a minute, although the stone man spoke seriously, if Liu XiYang understood correctly, did this guy just mention himself? And what does "other than good looks" mean?? Could it be that he's saying that my previous muscular body wasn't handsome enough?? Was it only popular because of its strength???
Calm down, Liu XiYang, calm down!!!
In the midst of the quiet and trembling crowd, the stone man continued.
"After relentless hard work and training, I became bald, but I also became stronger! I even gained the superpowers that countless people dreamed of!! I can lift thousands of pounds, be immune to swords and spears, I am a superpowered person, and I can even become a superhero!! So when I confidently went to confess my love to the goddess in my mind, when I performed chest-breaking stones, twisting iron bars with bare hands, and silver spear in front of her, the damn... sob... the damn woman actually told me, 'Although I am very touched, I'm sorry, you are just too ugly...bleh...' She vomited, she actually vomited looking at my face!!!"
"I am a superpowered person, I am a future superhero!! And that damn woman, she actually vomited looking at my face!!! So since then, I know that none of the beautiful women are good things!!! I want to kill, kill all the beautiful women around Guang, no... I want to kill all those bastards who only judge people by their faces!! I want to purify, purify this superficial world!!!"
As the stone man was already immersed in his own world of madness, an extremely calm voice suddenly broke in.
"Don't be afraid, everyone! I am a certified superhero of the Hero Association! Ranked 372nd in Class C heroes, I am the Underpants Hero!!! Let me handle this evil superpowered person!" A tall figure with pink underwear on top of his head stood not far in front of the stone man, protecting the rest of the people in the carriage behind him.
But...
"Under...Underpants Hero? Isn't this the middle-aged uncle who tried to sexually harass that girl just now?" People in the crowd looked at the familiar back view of the middle-aged uncle and whispered.
This time, Liu XiYang couldn't pull any expression on his face when he heard the discussions among the crowd... Anyway, it was not the first time being called a girl, so it didn't matter. But Liu XiYang never expected that this perverted uncle, who was trying to touch his butt, would actually be a certified superhero of the Hero Association? When did the Hero Association start to be so indiscriminate ... Could it be that this uncle's superpower is, by any chance, something like getting power by looking at a girl's underwear or touching her butt...?
"Don't panic, everyone! This is my certification!" As people questioned him, the uncle calmly pulled out a card from his pocket and held it up to the crowd... On the card, there was a headshot of the uncle with the pink underwear he had on his head now, as well as a certification from the Hero Association.
As the crowd marveled, the uncle spoke again.
"Although I am a superhero, I need to gather everyone's power to defeat this villain! As the name suggests, my superpower is activated by getting into contact with a girl's underwear! The cuter the girl's underwear, the more energy it provides me. Of course, if I simply look at or touch girls' underwear, it could also give me power! So..." The uncle glanced tenuously at Liu XiYang, who was watching him with evident disgust.
Hey, hey, hey... isn't your superpower going a bit too far?! Also, if you keep staring at me, I'll gouge your eyeballs out!!! Under the gaze of Uncle Underpants, Liu XiYang felt all the hair on his body stand on end.
"How about using mine instead!! Whether you want to look or touch, it's up to you!" A woman's voice rang out from the crowd.
However, when Uncle Underpants followed the sound with excited eyes, what he saw was the same old lady who had just bought vegetables and was on her way home. At this moment, she was pinching her skirt as if she could lift it at any time, her face full of a righteous and awe-inspiring expression.
