And if they ever discover that he’s a fraud, he’ll be sentenced to death! And yet that average guy decided to stick with the lie of being a hero, all for the sake of a single girl, “The Witch of Disaster”. …He has no talent, he’s painfully aware of that …But he knows how geniuses fight.

And Van will keep on winning Until the day he rises up from the fake “Strongest” to the real “strongest”…
