Event Story – Heroes with Dirty Faces, ch.11
Fri, Apr. 8th, 2022 07:46 pmーA few days later.
Dino: That's right! Attack there! Now's your chance, Jay! Now, now!
Jay: Kh... Don't underestimate a completely recovered Jay Kidman!
HAAAAAAAAAH......!
Dino: Wai... Wait, hang on! You're gonna break the controller!
Jay: Wh...!
Dino: Aww~ the time's up... Just a little bit more and...
Jay: Haha, looks like I got a little too carried away.
Dino: You sure did, that gave me a fright. But compared to when you first started, you improved, no?
Jay: It's all thanks to you teaching me all sorts of things... Although you have taught me before, too.
Dino: Ahahah. It's nothing out of the ordinary for a person who normally doesn't play games.
By the way... The "Jet" everyone's been talking about is THAT Jet, right?
Is your request that I snow you how to play "Happy World Hero" related to that...?
Jay: Yeah, that's right.
What do you think, Dino? Did things in-game change after Jet came back?
Dino: The energy is completely different. Jet is a legend and doesn't lack of fans, so I feel like things are getting hotter than ever.
But I guess the security is also deteriorating...? The quarrels between players have increased and there's a murderous atmosphere lingering.
Jay: Oh...
Dino: Do you know about the private matches Jet's hosting?
Jay: Yeah. The ones only a limited number of people can participate in during a limited period, right?
Dino: Yeah, those... Actually, rumor has it there are people using those mechanics for gambling or something.
Jay: Gambling?
Dino: Bettors seem to be wagering on whether Jet or his opponent will win.
Dino: That's right! Attack there! Now's your chance, Jay! Now, now!
Jay: Kh... Don't underestimate a completely recovered Jay Kidman!

You don't think Jet planned this himself, do you...?
Jay: That can't...
But if the rumors were true, someone must be using Jetー
Hm?
Dino: What's wrong?
Jay: ...... Sorry, it's a message from my son. I've just got a reply.
Dino: Don't worry about me. Answer him.
Jay: Sorry and thanks.
I had to break our promise last time, so this timeー
Jet: Yo...
Jay: !? Gray... I mean, Jet?
Jet: ... We're in deep shit.
Jay: ...?
ー I've made some coffee. For now, drink this to calm yourself down.
Jet: ......
Jay: Dino was kind enough to go home and both Billy and Asch said they'd be late today.
... Could you tell me about the "troubles" you mentioned?
Jet: ......
... Gray received a DM on "Happy World Hero" not so long ago.
It came when he fell asleep, so I look at it out of curiosity...
Even though it was sent to Gray's current account, the content was addressed to "Jet".
Jay: So, in other words... they knew about "Jet's" true identity?
Jet: Yeah. They got his personal info, they found out he's a hero under HELIOS.
Jay: I see...
Jet: They told him to return as "Jet" if he didn't want any of it to get out.
They only asked to get back in action and host private matches...
Jay: So you followed the instructions instead of Gray?
Jet: ... Yeah.
