Chapter 17 - Chapter 17

Hey guys!

I've finished watching the third season of Mob psycho 100 and I gotta say, it is possibly the best anime I've seen. Granted, I haven't seen that many anime, but it was genuinely amazing.

Enjoy the show!

"WHAT THE FUCK!?!?!?!"

Charlie leapt up from bed hearing James' voice, turning to her side and falling onto the floor on her left side. She let out a small groan of pain before she got up, making her bed nice and tidy before beginning her morning routine.

Her room was massive, fitting for the princess of Hell, having a queen+ sized bed with multiple red teddy-bears and stuffed animals on it. She walked past her dresser and wardrobe into her bathroom, beginning to take a shower while brushing her teeth.

While she was in the shower, her mind drifted to her newest guest at her hotel, her sponsor, and apparently her alarm: The Roaring Knight. After he came with his companions yesterday, he almost immediately passed out and had to be carried to a room.

When she had found the Knight yesterday, she felt like she had hit a jackpot. Not only could she save a sinner, but she could also have a sponsor for her hotel that wasn't only good, but also pretty cute…Don't tell anyone she said that.

Sure, he said that he doesn't really believe in her dream and is only helping her out of pity, but that's okay. She can fix him and show him that her beliefs aren't misplaced!

His companions also left…Stuff to be desired. Niffty also didn't fully believe in her, but she stuck around for the Knight along with Daki who was just a lot ruder than both of them. She couldn't complain though, in one fell swoop she got a sponsor and 2 other guests.

Soon, she got out of the shower, snapping her fingers and replacing her unicorn-pajamas with her usual red suit along with her underwear and bra. 'I swear these things get bigger every day.' she complained inside of her mind as she adjusted her bra to be a few sizes bigger. 'I thought I was supposed to stop growing at 180, I'm already 225 years old, darn it.'

She stopped her complaints, zipping up her bra, putting on her outfit and walking down the stairs to the lobby. When she got down there, she came across the strange site of James looking completely beleaguered at the TV.

"Hey, uh, Mr. Knight…Are you okay?" She hesitantly asked, walking over to him and putting a hand on his shoulder before she looked at what was on the TV.

What was on the TV was…Was…

"...Is that Kanye West?" She asked, tilting her head at what she's seeing. "When did you get an interview with a rapper?"

"...I didn't, Charlie. That's not me." He said plainly, like all of the hopes and dreams were sucked out of his soul. "They're running a smear campaign against me, just making some faker say some horrible stuff."

"Aw, I mean, it can't be that bad, righ–"

"Mr. Knight, would you say you share my beliefs that Hitler wasn't that bad?"

"Indeed, Mr. West, in fact, I would say that Hitler had a very positive impact on the world."

…Oh.

"I mean…I-I, it's not that–" Charlie stuttered out, trying to cheer up James, but he wordlessly passed her the remote.

"Skip back 10 minutes, Charlie." She slowly followed his commands, rewinding 10 minutes into where the "Knight" had a mic and was…Singing? She unpaused the TV and–

'I DON'T LIKE WOMEN"

'I DON'T LIKE WOMEN"

'I DON'T LIKE WOMEN"

…Oh.

"They got me on live television throughout Hell saying that I'm a misogynistic pedophile who supports Hitler." He said numbly, falling down onto the couch while staring up at the ceiling. Charlie sat down next to him, deciding to give him a hug.

"Trust me, Knight, everything's gonna be okay. I mean, it's not like you can go over there and blow the place up."

…!

"...That's exactly what you're gonna do now, isn't it?"

"Absolutely!" James yells, standing up and cracking his neck. "If Nifty and Daki ask, tell them to watch the news and don't blink."

"Knight, please don't kill anyone." She said, standing up next to him. What she could not expect was James actually making crystals underneath his feet as sort of slits to make himself as tall as her before slugging an arm across her shoulders. 

"Chill, Charlie, I wasn't gonna kill anybody anyway. Also, call me James. I told you my name yesterday, right?" He asked rhetorically, making his crystal stilts disappear as he was halfway out the door. "Don't touch that dial, Charlie, something crazy's gonna happen." He said before he fully walked out, leaving Charlie alone in the lobby.

It wasn't until a few minutes later that Charlie realized she was still blushing gold. 

***SCENE CHANGE***

Right now, I'm walking down the streets, specifically to that damn news station that first reported on me. Hell 666 news, I'm coming for your ass, and I gotta plan to help me. When Charlie mentioned it, I realized that my clay-bombs power could synergize with crystal caesar.

The Ticket said that clay bombs could move independently while I could create semi-autonomous movements with crystal golems that I could make. If I combine them, I could basically have bombs that could fight and just explode at random.

This could be useful, but nothing noteworthy if I hadn't remembered what I was thinking yesterday. If I build up another legend while still having Daki's soul under command, could I just make myself into another Overlord? Well, I was gonna find out today one way or another ,considering what I had planned.

I had already made the two bombs inside of two specific characters that I designed specifically for this little performance. With [Expert Performance] in my bag, I can definitely draw in a crowd, especially with this guitar that I…

****

"Either you give me this guitar, or I'll break everything in here, kill you, fuck your wife, fuck your daughter, give your son estrogen, fuck your son and then kill all of them."

****

…I borrowed it from a kind stranger.

Anyway, it looks like all the pieces are in place, so I might as well get in place as well. I didn't walk out at the Roaring Knight, instead going out in a button-up shirt along with some plain jeans. I also made myself a crystal mask of the Roaring Knight to wear to hide my identity.

I soon got to the outside of the news station. It was a relatively big building with branding and advertisements all over it, but the most important thing was the people around the building. Because the news station was in a pretty recognizable place, a whole lot of people were walking around it and could witness what was going to happen.

There wasn't any better time than the present for this. I stood directly in front of the station, turning towards the street and putting a hand down on it, creating a stage made of crystal on the sidewalk.

People were obviously surprised, but the real kicker was the doves that I was producing, going outside of the station windows and staying put. "Hello people of Sin City." I said, spreading my arms out. Thankfully Expert Performance allowed me to really throw my voice around without singing, so it was a great attention grabber.

"The Roaring Knight has ordered this performance, and as such, I will deliver an explosive performance." I calmly stated, tapping my foot against the ground twice as a signal for my "golems" to get to work on the inside.

"Hey, asshole, who the fuck are–" A seemingly dog-man tried to interrupt, but before he could get another word out, I raised an arm and made a crystal muzzle around his mouth.

"The next person who interrupts me will not get silenced temporarily, but silenced with a crystal to the neck. "I said, making the muzzle disappear as the man watched me with fear in his eyes. "Now…Shall I begin?"

Seeing nobody say anything else, I began to drum the strings of my guitar. I hadn't thought of a specific song to play, so I just decided to play the first song that came to my mind: The Stains of Time.

Thanks to Expert Performance, I'd say I played better than the guys who originally made it. People were looking at me, absolutely mesmerized by my playing. I'm pretty sure I saw a woman actually pass out when I had turned my head to see the crowd.

My aura didn't matter right now, as I was approaching the climax of the song and judging by my doves carrying people out, it looked like the climax of the building was coming as well.

"In the mud and sinking deeper…Into a peaceful life…

And

It

Will

Come!"

B O O M!!

Right at the climax of the song, I felt a wave of heat coming from behind, the wind from it almost knocking me off my feet. I looked back and saw what I expected, a building now in ruins and no dead bodies…

Ticket, did anybody die?

[Nope, just some injuries! I also got some tickets for you]

Cool, definitely cool, wait a minute though.

I looked at the crowd again, now being increased by the evacuees being here. "Let this be a warning. The Knight is coming to hunt down and exterminate all of the fake news being spread about him." I said, my tone as hard as steel as I gazed upon the crowd's scared faces. "...You should also visit the Hazbin Hotel." I throw in at the last second.

When I felt like they got the message, I cracked my neck and began to walk away before I hopped up, landing on my doves and letting them carry me all the way back to the hotel. Alright Ticket, show me the money.

1x Silver ticket: Commit an act of terrorism

1x Gold ticket: Become the enemy of a major Overlord group.

Man, I don't give a fuck. If they want to call me a misogynistic Hitler supporting pedophile, then they'll get the consequences and the dildo of consequences if never lubed. Go ahead and roll it all.

[Ticket to the ITOPOD]

THE END

Man, I was really surprised when I rolled the ITOPOD ticket since it seems kinda OP for a rare item. I mean, I thought it would only be a one-time thing, but the description mentions that the tickets disappear, implying more. I don't know, tell me how I should implement this.

That Stand Arrow pull was also insanely fucking lucky, but I don't really know what it means t roll to see what kind of stand awakens. I mean, I guess I can roll an ability and work around that, but I'll think about it.

Also, you'll see the interworking of the terrorism next chapter, I wouldn't off-screen shit like that.

Ok bbbbyyyyeeee!
