Rise of Super Beast

"Hey Divya!"

"What's the plan for today?"

"See who's behind me? We're going on an adventure raid."

Before Divya stood a fine girl with a very well-proportioned body and a mole just below her left eye. Rolling her eyes, she said, "Still joking."

"I'm really not joking," and with a pull, she brought Sam between herself and the girl with the mole.

Moving her head up and down, the girl asked strangely, "You really aren't joking?"

She stomped her feet, "I can't believe that you, Monika, wouldn't believe me."

"Hey! What are you both doing? Everything has already been prepared for the raid."

"Coming," two soft shouts reached Sam's ears, and he followed them.

A huge monolith structure stood majestic yet seemed dwarfed compared to other monoliths, though everything was well-suited within the campus of the university. This monolith had blue-colored fissures, indicating it was a normal dungeon with little danger of a dungeon break.

"Are we all ready?" a girl with reddish-dyed hair asked.

"Sam, I'm in your hands. You better protect me," Divya warned in a low voice.

"As long as I have breath, you can calm your heart," Sam assured her.

With a faint smile on her face, Divya replied, "Yes, Ma'am, we are ready."

"Okay. No jokes from her," Monika added.

With everything in place, everyone entered the fissure.

Since Divya's safety was Sam's responsibility, he was the first to step inside.

Krk

The rubbing sound of metal reached Sam's ears, and in the next moment, he saw scattered piles of bones lying on the ground.

Calmly analyzing his surroundings, he retracted his sword, which disappeared from his hand in the next moment.

"Oh my God, there's already a pile of bones here."

The sound caught Divya's group's attention, but before they could praise the doer, a sharp, scolding voice made their hair stand on end. "Amateur mistake! Wait for me in training after finishing this raid."

Sam stood unaffected by all of this, scanning for any danger with his sharp, discerning eyes.

"Sorry, sir, for asking bluntly, but you gave your 'jewel of your eye' to..."

With a faint smile on his face, the silver-haired man replied, "You don't know his background, or you would have understood better."

"Sorry, sir, I was busy managing."

"I know. I know you've been managing everything for the Verma family."

With a sigh, he continued, "I don't have a son, and I know my daughter's future. She won't have anyone to defend her after they go to that planet."

Shrugging his shoulders, the bearded man with white hair sighed, "Yeah, maybe your decision is right."

***

"Sam, I never imagined you would be so overpowered."

"Yeah, can you give me your number?"

"Can you sign here?"

"Hey! Don't try to come near him," Divya said as she pushed her friend aside and warned, "Don't ever try to snatch him."

Cough

All the girls blinked and stood in an assembled manner.

"10 rounds," the reddish-haired instructor ordered.

"But Ma'am, I wasn't..."

"I don't need any excuses," the Ma'am interrupted and walked away, leaving a faint statement, "We'll meet in the evening at this place."

As her back disappeared, Monika came near Sam and asked curiously, "Are you really that guy?"

Confused by her question, Sam turned his head toward Divya and raised his eyebrows.

"If you have any questions about me, you can ask her."

The hard and direct rebuttal momentarily stunned Monika.

Coming back to her senses, she moved to Divya, "This is really something."

Shaking her head, Monika asked, "Hey Divya, is it really that tough?"

With a flat face, Divya replied, "I don't know since he came yesterday."

"Hey Divya, are you only going to share things with Monika?"

"Aah! What a cruel world. Aren't we bodyguards special? And what's so special about a boy who's the youngest among all of us?"

***

"Hey buddy! You're all just silent. Aren't you going to give your opponent a tough time?"

The boy, sitting in the middle of his group, regretfully shook his head. "Forget about her. She is now under the protection of someone we can't afford to mess with."

Raising his eyebrows, one of the boys asked, "Oh! There's someone who can make our leader, Sanju, hesitate? The guy who never even feared the principal?"

"Go and comment on her; you'll understand my statement."

A boy drinking water among the group spat it on another boy's face, "Sorry, bro, I just couldn't help it," and added solemnly, "If someone can make our leader hesitate, then it's better not to mess with them."

Sanju slightly curled his lips, "We boys just do it for fun, but girls... they do it out of jealousy. I believe someone must have poked their nose into the beehive."

All the boys grinned. "Yeah, and I believe that must be intriguing."

***

A group of girls sat on the campus ground under the shade of a tree, conversing with each other.

"Hey Seema, I heard she brought that guy as her bodyguard."

"I heard too! This has become famous across the whole university."

"I've got the latest news: they cleared the raid in just 5 minutes, and everyone in her group witnessed it since Divya requested that guy to show his abilities."

One of the more stylish girls asked in a low voice, "Did you witness it?"

Everyone fell silent since they had only heard gossip.

Shaking her head, she sighed in a low voice, "I can't believe she would stoop so low just to become more popular than me."

She must have deceived the whole class to grab attention. No. I mustn't let her snatch my popularity.
