When had Blue Kill ever been wronged like this before?
He stood in shock, mouth dry, voice trembling as he yelled back at the top of his lungs:
"It wasn't me!!"
Lucas scoffed beside him, arms crossed, eyes narrowed.
"Then who was it?"
Blue Kill: "…"
He really didn't know who had done it—but it definitely wasn't him!
His silence, however, was the final nail in his coffin.
In the eyes of the tentacle-covered principal, Blue Kill's hesitation was a sign of guilt.
Tentacles began inching toward him with sinister intent.
Lucas, standing off to the side, suddenly adopted a pained expression.
Like a betrayed teacher disappointed in a hopeless student.
"Principal, it's him!" Lucas exclaimed dramatically.
"He never turned in his homework on time, and he even tried to cheat on the last exam! I can't believe he went so far as to blow up the entire school!"
Blue Kill's rage burned like wildfire.
This traitorous faceless man was making things worse every second.
"YOU'RE SLANDERING ME!" he shouted.
But before Lucas could respond, a deafening roar erupted above them.
"A teacher would never lie! It must have been you, you rotten student!!"
The principal bellowed with pure fury, tentacles flailing.
Even in his madness, the monstrous principal didn't forget to protect his "loyal" staff.
"Teacher, please stand back. I might hurt you by mistake."
Lucas bowed reverently.
"Of course, Principal."
Blue Kill: ???
---
Lucas moved aside, calmly stepping away from the battlefield.
And Blue Kill? He now had the full attention of a nightmare.
"A high-level threat versus something beyond advanced threat," Lucas muttered. "That should hold him for a while…"
He opened his system panel, keeping one eye on the chaos.
[Instance Countdown Begins]
[2:16:53]
[2:16:52]
---
Blue Kill was furious—and cornered.
He'd been played since the beginning.
Betrayed by a deceptive faceless man, now left to fend off a principal with godlike tentacle strength.
The number of tentacles was overwhelming.
Even with his agility and power, Blue Kill was constantly being forced back.
Every strike he made only delayed the inevitable.
Using his "Investigation" skill to the max, he searched for weaknesses, escape points—anything.
Meanwhile, his BERETTA92F roared with bullet after bullet, shredding some of the flailing limbs.
But the rate of tentacle regeneration… was much faster.
He couldn't keep up.
Blue Kill was falling behind—fast.
---
[1:58:36]
[1:58:35]
Lucas glanced at the countdown.
"Come on, Blue Kill. You haven't even forced the principal to show his true power yet."
---
Blood dripped from Blue Kill's mouth.
Gritting his teeth, he reached for his trump card.
A flash of white light lit up his hand.
From his inventory, a pair of red gloves emerged.
---
[Item Name: Saitama's Gloves]
[Type: Consumable]
[Quality: Legendary]
[Attack Power: ???]
[Attributes: None]
[Description: These gloves grant a basic punch attack. Unfortunately, they're not quite as powerful as the original. Oh—maybe your hair's just too thick.]
---
With a roar, Blue Kill leapt into the air, fist drawn back.
Fist winds surged.
He focused all his strength—
"Let's see you grow tentacles after I BLOW YOUR HEAD OFF!!"
He struck.
A burst of blinding white light exploded on impact—
---
> : WHAT?! Blue Kill has a legendary item?!
: HE'S GOING TO WIN!!
: The supernova delivers! One punch man style! Let's GOOO!
: Goodbye principal!
---
The light faded.
And the result?
Blue Kill was the one who collapsed.
The principal remained standing.
Only a slight scratch showed on his scalp.
That was all.
Blue Kill's full-force legendary punch had achieved nothing.
The tentacles began dancing faster than ever.
The monster howled with fury.
"YOU WRETCHED STUDENT! YOU'RE VILE!!"
Blue Kill stumbled backward.
He was starting to realize…
This thing wasn't beatable.
---
In Lucas's live broadcast room, viewers were stunned into silence.
"He actually used a legendary item… and failed?"
"What kind of absurd boss setting is this?!"
"None of these players have cleared even 50 dungeons. How are they supposed to fight this?"
"We just watched the strongest supernova… fall."
---
The principal let out a scream that felt like it could split the heavens.
Blue Kill was reaching his limit.
[Mental Attack Detected: Blue Kill -1... -2... -3...]
His eyes widened in horror.
The principal could attack a player's mind directly?!
Despair engulfed him like a black fog.
He couldn't escape. He couldn't win.
---
[1:00:00]
[0:59:59]
Lucas closed his system panel.
"Almost time."
[Player Lucas is under mental attack: -1, -2, -3…]
He twisted his neck with a loud CRACK.
"Why do I feel... strangely excited all of a sudden?"
Reaching inside his coat, Lucas pulled out his kitchen knife.
"But that doesn't matter now."
He raised his voice.
"Principal!"
The monster paused mid-attack, slowly turning to face him.
"Yes, teacher?"
Lucas's features began to shift again.
His faceless disguise melted away.
His real face returned, complete with a devilish grin.
"Actually…"
"The one who bombed the school…"
He pointed to himself.
"…was me."
---
Blue Kill, collapsed on the ground: ????? YOU MOTHER—[CENSORED]
The principal froze.
His tentacles twitched.
His entire monstrous form trembled.
"YOU… IT WAS YOU?!"
---
[Boss Status: Principal — Nearing Danger Cap Limit]
Tentacles swelled, pulsed, and twitched like madness incarnate.
Blue Kill could barely keep his eyes open.
[Mental Attack: -5, -6, -7…]
Through his blurred vision, he saw Lucas smiling like a madman.
Lucas was charging forward.
Faster. Faster. The knife gleamed in his hand.
That same smile—that same wild energy.
Blue Kill gasped.
"IS HE INSANE?!"
---
The viewers could barely keep up.
On their screens:
[System Alert: Player Lucas' Data is Abnormal – Reanalyzing…]
[System Alert: Player Lucas' Data is Abnormal – Reanalyzing…]
[System Alert: Player Lucas' Data is Abnormal…]
[Life: 100 → 3111]

[Strength: 101 → 4639]
[Luck: 1]
[Brainpower: 96 → Testing…]
[Mental Strength: 85 (Warning: Declining Rapidly)]
All viewers collectively dropped their jaws.
"It's happening again…"
