When Lou's eyes open he is surprised that he appears in front of a building, he looks around and notices that no one is here, the place seems to have been abandoned a long time ago.
"This is?"
System,' This is the place where your first opponent is living here, just an average guy who weaves as an average hero.'
"The one who becomes a hero because of a habit?" Lou asked.
System,' Ping~! Pong~! Bingo, you got it right.'
Lou felt that his world crumbled, of all being he was going to fight, he actually got the most powerful of them all.
So that's why he felt familiar with this street and the apartment, so that's why there are no other people here, he understands now where he is.
The Z-City Ghost Town is a large uninhabited neighborhood located on the east side of Z-City.
When cases of high-level monsters appearing in the neighborhood increased all of a sudden in the last few years, all citizens supposedly moved in masses to the center. As a result, the whole neighborhood was deserted and it's now a ghost town, but with the critical infrastructure like electricity and water supply intact.
In front of him is Saitama's Apartment, the primary residence of Saitama and Genos. The apartment was also a meeting spot for the future Saitama Group.
Helpless sigh, Lou can only walk and greet his opponent, before formally challenging him even though he knows that the result is already final.
Walk upstairs, in front of the door where he can feel the life energy inside Lou spat a mouthful of air and bravely knock.
"Hello, anybody home?"
*Kachak!
"Huh? Sorry, i don't need a newspaper."
Saitama is an ordinary-looking bald man with a thin but well-built physique and is of average height and weight. He used to have a full head of short black hair but lost it due to the intensity of his hero training regimen.
A typical code anime character with a pack of OP ability that even the Saiyan can even defeat, the pinnacle of a human being.
Wearing a hero costume consists of a yellow one-piece jumpsuit with a short zipper at the collar and a black belt with a round golden buckle at its center. He wears red gloves that go 3/4 up his forearms and red boots that nearly reach his knees. His costume is finished off with a white cape, which is fastened to his shoulders with round buttons.
Lou excitedly said," Are you Saitama?"
"Yes? Who are you?"
"I came to challenge you, can you give me a minute or two?"
Saitama looked at Lou and said,." No, you're too weak, go home kid, and train more,"
Hearing what he said, Lou did not get angry, after all, he knew the gap of their own ability and raw power but still he can't go back without trying one.
"Please let me try, don't worry, i will not take your whole time."
Saitama waved his hand and said," No, go home, you should attend school rather than challenging me."
He then closes the door and locks it inside, Lou can clearly hear it from outside.
"I will pay you," Lou suddenly said.
*Kachak!
"Guest, please come in, let's talk about your challenge." Saitama hurriedly said, taking Lou's arm pulling him inside.
Lou's lips twitch seeing how he changes fast, Saitama really an easy read if you're not an idiot.
The apartment is small with a large living space, a small kitchen, and a bathroom. A typical small apartment for those college students.
Lou looked around and asked," There's no one stayingthis huge building, why not occupy the largest room than staying here?"
"Hehe~ well, i dont have money to pay for the bill, so i get the lower-cost room," Saitama embarrassingly said.
Lou felt stupid hearing his reason, did he think that the owner of this building will come just to get his monthly rent?
"So you came to challenge me?"
Lou nodded.
"So… you're paying right?"
Lou nodded again.
"100 Yen every challenge." Saitama seriously said nervously looking at Lou waiting for his decision. If ever his price is too high, he can make it half.
"100 Yen?" Lou petrified hearing his price is challenging, the first thing that came to his head was,' So cheap, a can of coke is more costly than him.'
"5-50 Yen, that's the last offer, if not you can go back home," And he really idiotic cut it in halt nervous that Lou rejects his offer.
Lou helpless smiled and show five fingers,
"Only 5 Yen?" Saitama helplessly said, he can only buy a cheap vegetable with that money.
Lou shook his head and said," Not 5 Yen, but 500,000 Yen, that's my challenging fee, of course, I need you to accept one of my requests."
"Tell me," Saitama hurt ysaid.
"I want you to take me seriously when we're fighting."
Saitama's hippy face suddenly becomes serious, his serious face looks like Ikkaku from Bleach, he then looks at Lou and says," I can't do that, you will die if I ever take you seriously."
"O know, but don't worry, im a zombie, even you accidentally kill me, i can revive with just a bit of my flesh,"
"Are you sure?"
Lou nodded, he then took out a bundle of money and put it in front of him.
Saitama took all the money, reached his hand, and said," Happy cooperation."
"Happy cooperation."
"When do you want to start?"
"Now."
"Then let's go,"
Saitama then took Lou where he fought Genos, a typical open land field with a bunch of craters he made from the last fight with Genos.
