Back on saitama's original world life continued as usual, well as usual as living in a world metal and being controlled by a multiversal entity could be

Nobody worked outside of Saitama's personal engineers, mechanics and other jobs that he commanded over, there was no need to work, food was provided free, every person got a cold metal apparent when they came of age and money as a whole had almost completely disappeared

Life for the S class heroes that had survived Saitama's original rampage was miserable

Most were permanently stationed in public mechanical hospitals while those that could live normal lives sat in their room contemplating their existence

Silverfang was among those living in apartment blocks and he hadn't spoken to another S class hero since the whole thing started, infancy he hadn't had much communication at all

Maybe a distant hello to kids on the street he passed, or a slight head nod to those he knew from before but now his whole life was empty

He had not been allowed to start a training program up again as some labeled it as training a rebellion

Heroing was literally impossible since Saitama's guards dealt with heroes and villains alike and how was he to find inner peace in the world of metal

Zombie man wasn't doing much better

Since he couldn't be a detective anymore he had increased his smoking tenfold and his body was suffering

His body repaired from physical damage but the smoke was destroying him from the inside out and he was constantly coughing

Metal bat had somehow survived his encounter and had avoided going to the hospital and he sat at home redecorating bouquets of roses over and over again, they had been his sister's favorite flowers and maybe shed come to him if he decorated them right

His family were moved to apartment buildings hours away from where he was so he rarely ever got to see his little sister

Darkshine was one of the S class heroes not lucky enough to remain in one piece

Receiving a fraction of a punch from Saitama had completed destroyed his left side including several of his organs which were replaced with robotic prosthetics

He remained unconscious in the S sector of the hospital with three others

With him was flashy-flash who had been refined to a wheelchair, it was his worst nightmare, not being able to use his legs and it was worsened with the wound hole going through his chest

Miraculously when he had been stabbed they missed most of his vital organs so he had survived and had been brought here where he was unable to leave without dying of potential organ failure

Also in the room was child emperor who had been paralyzed from the lower chest down and now relied on drips and an oxygen mask to survive

He had lost his right foot and his right hand had been mangled beyond repair which left him unable to invent anything ever again

The last person in the room was pig god who was in the most severe condition

He was a fraction of what he had been previously

Before he was big enough to eat entire monsters but now he looked like a squeezed tube of toothpaste

His stomach had been compressed and his organs had been working overtime to keep his body running and it showed on his body

Blood veins pumped across the shriveled form of the former hero and deep raspy breaths dragged unwilling oxygen from the tanks he had been attached to

No one spoke, they were all in too much pain and the only sounds were the deep raspy breaths from pig god and the others in the room

These heroes were lucky

They survived

But not all were so lucky

Five S class heroes had not survived the event

First was Geno's, Saitama's own apprentice

Killed when Saitama ripped the core from his chest the power in his circuit lost power and Geno's was no more

Next was atomic samurai

Noone witnessed what happened but they all knew it had been violent as when the body had been recovered there barely was anything to recover

Scattered tissue here and there along with scattered fragments of DNA had been found in areas as far as the Chinese borders

Next was drive knight

Scattered memory chips revealed that as he had been viciously torn apart he had actually been killed instantly and what Saitama had been idestroying was actually his dead half robotic corpse

Metal knight was also similar to drive knight

Information about what happened has recovered from a black box he had conveniently had by his side in his base

After Saitama had dealt with blast he headed straight to where metal knight was

Bewildered by how Saitama had known exactly where he was he barely even put up a fight before the black box was forcibly turned off to stop the horrifying sounds

Lastly was Q cities very own protector watchdog man

Details of this account were so violent it cannot be repeated upon anyone or anything for the safety of the listeners or readers mental and physical health

In other words it was miserable for almost everybody around

Almost everybody

Almost

Apparently the only person who didn't find the changes so bad was king

King now didn't even need an excuse to play whatever games he wanted

Nobody judged when he got a weird girly game or when the title of the game said "dating sim"

Now that money was no longer used a bunch of his favorite games had had massive giveaways and game companies stopped making games for the money and actually for the enjoyment of the players

Now that all the game developers had free time thousands of new games had been released and scams had become a thing of the past
