Returner Fantasy
Chapter 34: Extra: Iron Rod Legion - Marathon
Following the day Jeff and his friendsâKris and Marcâwere abducted by their senpai, Nubia, the three were forced to join the student council and spend their high school lives as Nubiaâs errand boys. đłđŤđđ˛đ đđŻđđ¨đđđš.đ°đźđş
Even after Nubia graduated from high school a year later, she still found ways to use Jeff, Kris, and Marc to do her biddingâemploying them as pawns for tasks related to her familyâs various businesses and her college activities.
All under the threat that, if any of them dared to refuse her, the video containing their deepest, darkest secrets would be uploaded online.
Yet following Nubiaâs antics didnât just lead to more embarrassing memories during their high school yearsâit also deepened the bond between the pervert trio. And it wasnât as if Nubia treated them poorly as her personal errand boys. In fact, one of the three secretly enjoyed being around his senpai.
However, all the embarrassing memories they had accumulated over the course of three years would not compare to the humiliation they were about to faceâon the day of their graduation ceremony.

The Iron Rod Legion
An organization made up of male graduates from Jeffâs high school, Central High.
A brotherhood of men who pledge to uphold the following virtues:
1. Aspire to be a man who can satisfy womenâespecially in bed.
2. Aspire to be a man who can protect womenâespecially from bastards unworthy of being called men.
3. Help fellow Legionnaires in times of great crisis.
4. If an Iron Rod Champion issues a command, the Legionnaires must answerâso long as itâs worthy of the pledge.

Thanks to Nubiaâs recommendation, Jeff, Kris, and Marc were qualified to undergo the harsh initiation and become members of the Iron Rod Legion.
But that wasnât the matter currently bothering them.
What truly terrified them was the ceremonyâa tradition upheld by the school for the Iron Rod Legion on every graduation day since its founding.
The Iron Rod Marathon
Among the graduating Legionnaires, those brave enough to compete for the title of Iron Rod Champion could put their names into the Goblet of Love. Or, alternatively, have their names placed in it by "friends" as a prank.
Obviously, Jeff, Kris, and Marc belonged to the latter group.
"You two bastards! Which one of you put my name in there!?"
"It was you, wasnât it!?"
"Why the hell would I put my own name in there, idiot!?"
Jeff, Kris, and Marc could only scream in frustration as each of their names was called by the master of ceremony. After all, refusing to participate in the Iron Rod Marathon would invalidate their graduation and force them to repeat another year.
Unknown to them, the one who secretly placed all their names into the Goblet of Love was none other than their beloved Nubia-senpai.

The Iron Rod Marathon is divided into three stages.
The First Stage
As expected from a marathon, the course is laid around the entire school perimeter. The first stage is a single lap around the campus.
â"YEEAAAHHHH!"â
âBANG!â
At the loud cheer from the excited audienceâwhich included family members and relatives of the graduating students, locals, and even media crewsâand the sound of the starting pistol, the marathon officially began.
The Second Stage
After the exhausting run, what came next was full-blown humiliation.
The moment the participants returned to the starting point which is the graduation stage, they were required to strip naked and run two more laps.
Not completely naked, of course. They still had their running shoes and a "random disguise" hidden inside a boxâone they could choose themselves.
"Youâre calling this a disguise!?" Marc screamed in frustration upon seeing what was inside his chosen box:
A pair of "Superman" glasses and a red capeâor rather, a handkerchief just barely big enough to wrap around his waist and conceal his rod.
"Am I supposed to run completely naked!?" Kris protested to the staff after opening his box:
A pair of Mario mustache and a red hat. At least the mustache was large and the hat had an attached string. Kris had to decide which part of himself to cover with which item.
Meanwhile, Jeff cried the moment he opened his box and saw what was inside:
A bald wig cap and a fake beard. The beard was clearly meant to cover his rod, but there was nothing to hide his face. Compared to Marc, who could still rely on the "Clark Kent glasses effect," Jeff had it worse.
After running the two humiliating laps, only the first 12 to reach the goal would proceed to the third stage.
The Third Stage
Back at the graduation stageâwith no rest granted to the 12th runnerâthe remaining Legionnaires were required to stand before the audience completely butt naked.
Their only saving grace? They were turned around, so the audience only saw their backsides. But yes... their butts were on full display.
However, this wasnât the main challenge of the final stage.
Despite being stark naked, the 12 finalists were granted a reward for surviving the earlier stages:
A handjob from a mysterious girl, fully covered in a white sheet with only her eyes visible.
That is, only if they could get hard and wear a condom despite their exhaustion.
With that requirement, half of them immediately failed.
Still, Jeff, Kris, and Marcâthe pervert trioâstood tall, literally and figuratively.
Regardless, only one could be crowned the Iron Rod Champion.
And with the final conditionâto cum from the handjob and still remain hardâJeff, with his still erect, throbbing, and proudly wielding his 9-inch-plus rodâclaimed the title of the Iron Rod Champion.
â"Fuck!"â
"âAll that disgrace and embarrassment for nothing!"
"âIf only I wasnât tired from doing it last night!"
As Kris and Marc screamed in defeat, kneeling on the stage, Jeff was left with one final embarrassing memory of his high school life:
Standing naked at the center of the stage, with only his bald wig cap, and his trophy as Iron Rod Champion barely hiding his manhood.
"Who the fuck started this freaking tradition!?"
