Unfortunate Hero's Retirement Life

Chapter 118: An Unforgettable Moment (2)

Hah... Hah Hah

A pang of exhaustion hit Sun Zhou Yi who had been fighting the Wyvern King for almost an hour. His arms were sore and numb for wielding the big sword, despite the early momentum, he still failed to kill the Wyvern King.

He managed to cut the Wyvern King's claw a few times, but he could not reach the dark core in the Wyvern King's body. He tried to reach the dark core inside its body, but he was far to destroy the hundreds of dark cores.

"I-I am at my limit" Sun Zhou Yi squeezed a few words out of his mouth. His words were directed to Musashi Naizen next to him.

Not only Sun Zhou Yi, but Musashi Naizen's also out of the breath as well. He had been intercepting many fireballs for Sun Zhou Yi and he was at his limit as well.

"Hah Me Hah too" Musashi Naizen formed a bitter smile as a reply came out of his mouth. He thought, with Sun Zhou Yi's big sword, they could kill the giant Little Dragon. However, he felt he was too naive, they were far from killing the giant.

Weng! Weng! Weng!

Sun Zhou Yi swung his swords while the Wyvern King warily countered his words. As he fought, a memory appeared in his mind. He felt his life in the last few months was quite lucky.

Meeting his master, getting stronger, fulfilling his lover's desire, and he got promoted to Gold Class Hero. The last a few months of memories flashed in his mind and a satisfied smile formed on his lips.

Did he regret his decision to stall the Wyvern King? He did not, instead, he felt proud and did not regret his decision. It was a lie if he said aloud that he did not regret, regret was in his heart, but a sense of fulfillment dominating his feeling right now.

With a big smile on his face, he muttered in a low voice that only him who could hear his voice, "Grandma Rong, I am a Hero, right?"

A past scene floated in his mind, where an old lady was telling a story about a Hero. The Hero in the story was not just a mere profession, but a true Hero.

"Grandma Rong, what is a Hero?"

"A person that is known for courageous and nobility of character. He protects the weak, he helps whoever is in need, he is kind and treats everyone equally, he is"

An old lady with white hair sat in a rocking chair appeared in Sun Zhou Yi's mind. Grandma Rong, she was a caretaker in an orphanage where he grew up. If someone asked him who his parents were, he would answer Grandma Rong.

"I wish, someday, a Hero will appear for us" It was the words that always came out from Grandma Rong's mouth after she finished telling a story to the kids. The other children treated the story as mere entertainment, but not for him.

Sun Zhou Yi wished one day, he would be a Hero. A Hero just like what Grandma Rong wished to, he took Grandma Rong's wish as his dream. That was the reason why he wanted to be a Hero despite being weak.

"Grandma Rong, I have become a Hero, right?"

Just as Sun Zhou Yi had given up, there was a familiar voice resounded, "Yes, you are a Hero, a stupid one at that!"

The words were quite harsh, but Sun Zhou Yi recognized the voice. It was his Master's voice. He did not upset even his Master said he was stupid, instead, the smile on his face became wider.

Fwoosh!

A streak of yellow lightning passed him and pierced through the giant's body. Sun Zhou Yi was surprised, but also overjoyed at the same time. As for Musashi Naizen, he was shocked and rooted on the spot as he blankly stared at the big hole in the giant's chest.

"If you still want to live and continue to be a Hero, stay away! Leave this big guy to me!" Heero warned his first disciple.

Sun Zhou Yi let out hearty laughter as the big sword dissipated. After that, he pulled Musashi Naizen who was rooted on the spot, "Leader, you heard that, let's leave!"

Graorrhh!

The giant Little Dragon let out a pained roar, the deafening roar echoed through the second dungeon.

Only after hearing Sun Zhou Yi's words and the roar, Musashi Naizen snapped out of his shock. Now, he directed his shock toward Sun Zhou Yi. Even without speaking, Sun Zhou Yi could tell what Musashi Naizen wanted to ask.

"Let's leave this place first, we will speak after we come out alive from this place," Having said that, Sun Zhou Yi retreated with his exhausted body and Musashi Naizen followed after him.

Sun Zhou Yi met the shocked Kang Seo-Yeon and Musashi Hirata. Yes, even Musashi Hirata was shocked by his Master's power shown to him. Sun Zhou Yi recognized both and he stopped next to the duo.

He fell to the black soil and blacked out afterward. He had been holding all this time, now, his Master appeared which calmed him down. As soon as he reached the ground, exhaustion engulfed him and he passed out.

Musashi Naizen also showed a surprised look as Musashi Hirata with a mask came into his sight. Hirata might have a wooden mask covering his face, but he recognized the sword that hung on the waist.

Just as he wanted to ask, he felt a fluctuation from his back. He turned around and soon, he had the same expression as Kang Seo-Yeon. His eyes almost popped out of his socket as he saw the countless lightning spears in the sky.

The shock he felt could not be described in words, the incredible sight turned him speechless. It was a power that could not be believed if one did not see it with their eyes.

Bzzzz! Bzzzz!

The countless lightning spears rained down the giant Little Dragon and a light that blinded his eyes burst out. The blinding light lasted for a minute, at this time, he was oblivious to what happened with the fight.

Even so, Musashi Naizen already knew the result. Without a doubt, the giant Little Dragon was dead for sure.

In the center of the blinding light, Heero released out a relieved sigh. He clenched his fist and loosened, he did that a few times. After a moment, he muttered in relief, "I have recovered to eighty percent at my peak. It's more than enough to face an Emperor Specter,"

As he said that, Heero gazed far further to the north. It was as if his gaze could reach the end of the dungeon. The current him was far stronger than him in the past, where he had to bet his life to kill the Evil Dragon.

Sigh!

Heero released out a sigh as the past's scene flashed in his mind. He regretted that he was not as strong as now when the Evil Dragon attacked Morabaka City. He regretted, but he did not dawdle with his regret as he now had a new life.

He closed his eyes for a moment, then a slight smile formed on his lips. Afterward, Heero went back to regroup with the others, Wyvern King was killed and his mission had been achieved.

Slowly, Musashi Naizen opened his eyes, the bleak forest and sky came into his sight once again.

However, there was a big difference between the scene a minute ago and now. The giant that loomed over him now disappeared. The giant Little Dragon disappeared without a trace and he finally got to see the mysterious man who spoke to Sun Zhou Yi before.

The man wore a casual black shirt with five weapons on his back. However, he could not see the face as the man wore a wooden mask covering the face. Currently, the mysterious man was checking Sun Zhou Yi's condition

Looking at the mask, he remembered another man with the same mask. He turned around, but he was greeted with a sheathed sword.

Bugh!

The sheathed sword hit his back head and his vision immediately blackened out. Musashi Hirata's action shocked everyone including Heero.

"You You What are you doing?" Kang Seo-Yeon immediately rushed toward Musashi Naizen as she pulled out her short sword.

Instead of explaining his action, Musashi Hirata answered with a question, "Do you think the conscious Emperor Class Hero - Rank 7 willing to be carried by a stranger like me?"

Shake!

A frown appeared on Kang Seo-Yeon's forehead as she recalled Musashi Naizen's character. Then, she shook her head, then she came into a realization.

If the conscious Musashi Naizen was not willing to be carried, then the unconscious Musashi Naizen could do nothing even if he did not want to be carried. It meant the masked man knocked Musashi Naizen to carry him out of the dungeon to shorten their trips out.

The injured and exhausted Musashi Naizen would not be able to follow her speed, let alone the duo masked. With an understanding look, she nodded and approached Heero who smeared something green onto Sun Zhou Yi's body.

After Heero finished everything, he picked up the unconscious Sun Zhou Yi and said, "Let's go back!"

Having said that, Heero moved to the woman, intending to carry the woman with his other hand. However, the woman refused him.

"Woman, let me carry if you don't want to be left behind! We can't stay here longer with two unconscious guys, or the Dark Ki will enter their bodies!" Heero spoke in an annoyed tone.

"I don't want to be carried like before" Kang Seo-Yeon shook her head and added with a big smile, "Let me get on your back instead,"

Heero did not bother to reply as he gave his back to the woman. The current Kang Seo-Yeon was totally different from the Kang Seo-Yeon he rescued a few months ago. He failed to recognize the woman was Kang Dong-Woo and Kang Myung Hee's big sister.

Kang Seo-Yeon happily hopped onto Heero's back. She had her feet circed Heero's waist and her hand on Heero's neck.

As for Musashi Hirata, he cast a strange look at his master.

'My Master has good luck with women,'

Heero did not feel anything suspicious, but he felt something round pressed his back. However, he did not bother to adjust the woman's position as it was her fault. After that, the group rushed back to the gate.

'Hehe, this is My Prince's smell He has a good smell He has a good smell'

'Is this the one called a manly smell?'

'Oh, I am hugging my prince I am hugging my prince after a long time, finally, I can now hug my prince'

'Is this the one called fate? Fate says My Prince is my other half, as fate says so, I can't do anything about it except for accepting my fate'

'I have to press my body harder so My Prince's smell sticks to my clothes'

'Oh no, I will not wash my clothes and will not change my clothes for a week No, at least I will wear this manly smell of clothes for a month Or maybe a year?'

Kang Seo-Yeon's thoughts ran wild. She closed her eyes to engross in her wild imagination as she imagined a bright future that awaited her.
