Villain Retirement

Chapter 1008 1008: Onegai Muscle

"Can you tell me why we are in this place again?"

"If I had a gold coin whenever a god went missing ever since this establishment was built, I would have two gold coins; which is not a lot, but it is weird that I have any at all."

"And?"

"And anyone with a working brain would immediately surmise that it is not a coincidence."

Outside the main gate of the HAA, two people were currently casually talking to each other; their appearances, however, were not casual at all. The two of them were wearing some sort of formal attire; a red and gold dress for the lady; adorned with a large black flower pinned on her chest, and a black and gold tuxedo for the gentleman, who has a large sword the size of his own body attached to his back. Both their hair, almost as red as a stop light.

"Hm… I do sense the presence of a god inside," the lady let out a small hum as she tiptoed to get a better view of the inside of the campus, even one could actually already see through the gate since it was open, "And not one we know too. What are you thinking, Orgain? Think they are the one responsible for the disappearance?"

"There is no use deliberating this here, Protain," the gentleman, Orgain, shook his head as he started to step forward, "Let us just go and visit whoever it could be."

Orgain was fully expecting to be stopped as he went through the main gate, but the guard really only glanced at him before just doing whatever it was he was previously doing. And so, he and Protain both just shrugged before entering the HAA.

They also fully expected to stand out amongst the lot, but no one was truly even looking at them — why would they be noticed, when some of the people walking around the campus had even more flamboyant outfits than them?

"I believe we may have stumbled upon a masquerade event, Orgain."

"No, these are the so-called superheroes," Orgain shook his head and sighed before just holding Protain's hand before she could wander someplace else, "And we are not to involve ourselves to them — we are only here for one reason, and one reason only."

"But what if they're involved—A familiar face incoming."

Orgain and Protain quickly halted their steps as they suddenly saw a woman emerging from the crowd.

"...Karina Ross," Orgain was about to draw his large sword, but Protain quickly grabbed his hand and prevented him from doing so.

"And now we know why the other gods are missing," a small smirk crawled on Protain's face as she took a step forward; her long fair legs, slightly peeking out of her dress with the elegance of her sway, almost dancing, "Of course, it has to be one of the Exiled."

"Speak, Karina — did you have something to do with the disappearance of the two gods?"

"...Two?" Karina raised an eyebrow as she heard Orgain's words, "And who the fuck are you two again?"

"Feign ignorance more, child," Protain let out a small giggle as she looked at Karina from head to toe, "You should remember us quite clearly, because the last time we met…

…your head was almost crushed into pieces between my thighs."

"Ah, of course…" Karina rolled her eyes, "...Protain and Orgain, the insufferable duo. The two of you look… quite different, much nicer to look at — although I am being generous."

"You—"

"You have a choice," Orgain then pulled Protain back before she could get any closer to Karina, "Whether to come with us to face your judgment…

…or be crushed here the same as last time, the only difference is that we will make sure you will die."

"Heh… you really think this will be the same as last time?" A small smile crawled on Karina's face as her white hair started to dance in the air; the ground beneath her feet, withering away and turning into dust as she looked Orgain straight in the eyes.

"It will — because ultimately, it is still the same for us whether you grew stronger or not — our existence is just different," Orgain finally managed to unsheathe his gigantic sword. And as soon as he did so, the area they were standing on expanded; the bystanders and onlookers who were slowly gathering around them, now all gone into the distance as Orgain activated his Territory.

"...This fucking thing again," Karina could really only click her tongue as she watched as the buildings of the HAA moved farther and farther away, "Why don't you remove this thing before you start talking shit to me, huh? Afraid?"

"Afraid, us?" Protain covered her mouth with the back of her fingers as she laughed, "Orgain, remove your Territory so we can teach this little girl a lesson she will never forget!"

"I am not going to do that — we will die before we can even blink."

"Y—"

And without even waiting for Protain to say another word, Orgain rushed toward Karina; his gigantic sword, creating a crevice on the ground as he slid it across the field.

"Tch," as for Karina, she only stretched her hand forward. And as she did so, the ground in front of him started to wither away and disappear completely; an invisible tidal wave that deleted everything that she could see.

It was weird, however, as no matter how much of the field she deleted and shaved off, the field just seemed to get bigger and bigger; with Orgain still rushing toward her, but not shortening the distance at all. In fact, the distance between them was getting bigger and bigger.

"I fucking hate this," Karina said as she stopped destroying everything in her sight — but as soon as she stopped doing so, Orgain and Protain suddenly appeared close to her; Orgain's sword, only inches away from slashing her neck while Protain's foot was only a meter away waiting to separate her head as soon as it was cut.

Karina, however, only clicked her tongue as she once again activated her powers, destroying everything around her. But alas, Protain and Orgain were suddenly a mile away again; the field, expanding and retracting to their will.

This was how Karina was defeated the last time — they fought for months on end until she just grew tired and let her guard down.

"Fuck…" Karina cursed while shaking her head, "...I shouldn't have allowed that stupid lady-looking bastard to egg me on. Fuck!"

"Getting frustrated already?" Protain then let out another loud chuckle as she pointed at Karina, "Well then… I would have loved to spend more time with you like last time, but we have a mission, so… Orgain."

"Hm."

Orgain and Protain then suddenly raised both their hands up… before just very slowly moving them down and flexing them; their biceps, growing exponentially before ripping off their clothes; their bodies which were once the epitome of elegance, now like a bunch of heavy rocks clumped together as their muscles grew.

Orgain's gigantic sword, now making more sense with his current build.

"I told you, child…" Protain's muscular thighs thumped, "...I'll crush your head this ti—"

And before Protain could finish her words, she and Orgain found themselves suddenly completely quiet as the distance between them and Karina shortened—no, it wasn't only Karina… the crowd and the buildings also returned as Orgain's Territory shrunk.

"...Why did you remove your territory!? Do you want us to die!?" Protain quickly moved behind Orgain in fear of being deleted just like that. Her worries were completely unfounded, however, as Karina seemed to be as surprised as them.

"I… didn't remove it," Orgain took in a small gulp, "Someone removed it."

"Is… it the god?" Protain quickly looked around, "But the god is still in the same spot, just who—"

"I am afraid the two of you broke two rules."

"!!!"

Both Protain and Orgain's eyes widened as they heard someone whispering between them. The two quickly flew away, but found their heads being smacked by an invisible wall; the only thing the two of them could really do was put up their guard as they looked at the man who whispered in their ears, only to see him just casually standing there with his hands behind his back…

…his clothes, even more elegant than the attire they ripped with their large throbbing muscles.

"Ah, it's the President!"

"You entered the Hero Academy and Association with the intent to do harm," Riley let out a small breath; not even looking at Protain and Orgain while shaking his head, "And based on what I have heard…

…the two of you hurt my daughter."

"Dad…?" Karina could really only whisper out as she heard Riley's words.

"...Dad?" Protain and Orgain looked at each other before just nodding and rushing toward Riley without uttering another word. Both of them, however, suddenly found their faces clasped and covered by Riley's hands.

"The punishment for that…" Riley's voice turned quiet,

"...is something I can not say in front of the students."
