Unfortunate Hero's Retirement Life

Chapter 10: Unfortunate Heero (2)

Marie was not only an owner bar and "Virgin Killer", but she also had another identity. Hero Guild guild master's little sister, surprisingly she was the little sister of guild master of Hero Guild Morabaka City.

Yesterday, after hearing his stories, Marie told him this secret and helped to get him a mission for Master Rank. Yes, somehow, Marie trusted him and snatched him a mission which was not published yet.

The mission was to escort the Paradise "superstar" back to her village. Paradise was an entertainment place which exclusive only for Hero. It was the same as brother yet also different.

In the brothel, you could sleep with a woman as long as you pay, but in paradise, they were not selling this service. Paradise only provided entertainment such as music and dance by the courtesan.

But Paradise did not prevent the Hero to sleep with the courtesan with a condition. First, one had to be a Master Rank Hero to enter Paradise. Second, the Hero had to get the courtesan's concert, no coercion and threat.

As long as the courtesan agreed, then it was not a problem. Hero did not need to pay and this was the reason why Marie got a name "Virgin Killer". She often helped the Hero who had a hard time in a relationship. She introduced the courtesan from Paradise and Hero which often ended with a success.

Nah, this mission related to Paradise. Paradise made a request to Hero Guild to escort their "Superstar", the number one courtesan in Paradise back to her village to attend her mother's funeral.

This was the main reason why Marie could help Heero snatched the mission. The number one courtesan in Paradise was her best friend and she was Guild Master's little sister. It was easy for Marie to snatch this mission.

Of course, Marie also trusted Heero. Heero was the person who killed thousands of undead. But of course, Heero was not alone in this mission, this mission was for six heroes.

The mission was to protect the courtesan from Savage. Savage was a group of a bandit who wanted to kidnap the number one courtesan in Paradise. Number one courtesan Paradise of Morabaka city, she was worth a lot of money.

Moreover, the rumor said the number courtesan was still a virgin. Even Grandmaster rank hero was rejected by her, the famous Yueying. Singing and dancing were her expertise and Heero had to protect her from Savage Group.

Right before the sunrise, everyone was asked to gather at the north gate of Morabaka City. Heero came earlier there was no one here yet. He was so excited for his first time Master Rank mission.

Did not long after Heero arrived, one by one the other heroes which took the mission came. There were six heroes in total included Heero and surprisingly, everyone was the same rank as him except one. There was one Master rank hero with them and he was called Iron Fist Muye.

Muye was famous with his close combat battle and it was said his fist was harder than iron. The other fours were Fried with a bald head, Garry the fatty, Drent the archer, and Gland the red hair.

The only one he knew was the Iron Fist Muye and the other fours were totally stranger to Heero.

"Hello, guys! My name is Xing Heero, please take care of me during the mission!" Hero introduced himself with a slight bow.

However, the reaction the other five were weird. As soon as they heard Heero's name, they looked at each other as they exchanged information secretly. Heero noticed, but he made no comment.

The first one who reacted was Garry. He hugged Heero excitedly, "So you are the exceptional rookie Xing! If it's you, then you were stealing my words, please take care of me during the mission!"

With Garry took the lead, the other three Advance rank hero gathered around Heero. Only Iron Fist Muye stood aloof.

Not long after the heroes gathered, a carriage with two horse came. The carriage was made of silver and inside the carriage without a doubt was their client, number one courtesan in Paradise, Ye Yueying.

When the silver carriage arrived, Iron Fist Muye spoke for the first time.

"I will be the leader and all of you have to listen to my words during the mission!" Muye declared. It was supposed to be like this, after all, he was a Master rank hero. No one opposed and Muye became the leader.

Yueying's village was at the north of Morabaka City. It was ten days journey to reach the village, Leaf Village. The journey was smooth and they did not encounter the Savage group.

The village was a little bigger than Xing Village. When Heero reached the village, it remembered him about his own village. Even though the village was near the border between Human Territory and Specter Territory, the people in the village lived peacefully.

Also for the first time, Yueying appeared before the heroes. Yueying was indeed extremely beautiful. The bright green eyes which attracted the people around her, the gentle smile which made everyone pleased, and for the first time, Heero met a girl that the beauty almost reached his fairy mother.

Even Iron Fist Muye was charmed by the beauty radiated from Lady Yueying.

"No wonder Savage group interested in her" Heero finally understood why the famous bandit group was after Yueying.

"Thank you for escorting this lady! You can stay in the village until my matter is over!" Lady Yueying bowed her head slightly as she thanked the six heroes who escorted her.

Heero stayed in Leaf Village for three days. The last day, the villager was holding a banquet for the heroes. The villager was excited about being able to meet the real hero.

During the banquet, Heero sat on the left of Lady Yueying under her request while Iron Fist Muye sat on the right of Lady Yueying. Even though they were in a banquet, they did not forget their mission.

The banquet started with the dance from the lady from this village. Dance, music, and song accompanied the banquet.

However, the problem aroused here. Heero tasted the dishes and found something amiss with the food. Poison, there was a poison in the food. The poison was not dangerous, it was poison would make one sleep.

Heero frowned and he noticed Lady Yueying also wanted to have a bite at the food. Heero prevented her, "Don't! The food is poisoned!"

Then Heero noticed something strange, Iron Fist Muye did not touch the food. Garry, Fried, Drent, and Gland also did not touch the food. He felt a bad premonition.

Subconsciously, Heero pulled Lady Yueying with him to the stage where the ladies danced and sang.

"You, what are you doing!?" Yueying startled with Heero's sudden move. The other villagers also noticed Heero action. But they could do nothing as they slept as soon as they stood up. Only the ladies who danced and sang who were not sleeping as they did not consume the food.

The ladies panicked as soon as they found the villagers collapsed. Iron Fist Muye and the other four heroes remained on their seat.

Then Garry threw something toward the stage. The thing Garry threw released out a smoke. The ladies passed out as soon as they inhaled the smoke.

"Don't inhale the smoke!" Heero shouted.

Lady Yueying followed Heero's instruction while Heero brought her out of the banquet hall. When they went out, Iron Fist Muye and the others already there.

Not only Iron Fist Muye, Garry, Fried, Drent, and Gland. There was another crowd which also armed out here. There was no need to guess, these people were Savage Group. Muye and the others were working together with Savage group to capture Yueying.

"Why?" Heero uttered a word as he looked toward the supposed to be "comrades". Heero's look was full of disappointment and gloomy.

Yes, why? Why we human and also hero fought each other when the beast and specter ran amuck out there? The human race enemy was the specter and beast race, but why human did not unite as one and instead they fought themselves.

Heero did not understand at all. The bandit group was enough to make him angry. Yet now, the hero was working together with the bandit. Heero was disappointed yet also furious.

Muye however did not care about Heero's thought.

"Give Lady Yueying to us and leave the village. We can spare your life, rookie!"

Heero did not get the answer he wanted to. Yes, he was really wanted to know why would these people do this. He wanted to try to change them, but it was him too naive as he saw Drent shot the arrow. Heero pulled Lady Yueying and dodged the incoming arrow.

"Boss, just kill him. We can't let him alive. What if he reported this to the temple? We will be done for sure!" Drent did not agree with Muye.

These people wanted to kill him. Heero was filled with anger. His breath became hurried as he agitated. But then, a gentle voice rang, "Sire, please calm down, don't let anger drown you!"

Somehow, the gentle voice washed Heero's agitation and calmed him down. Heero took a deep breath and looked back, "Thank you!"

After that, Heero looked back to the group of bandit and heroes. He was extremely calm now and he knew what to do.

"Please stay here. Don't move and trust me I will protect you!"

After leaving those words, Heero started his move. He never thought that one day, the technique he learned and the training he experienced would be used against his own race, killing people.

It was a complete one-side slaughter. When Heero determined what he would do, he did not hesitate in the slightest. The fight only lasted less than a thousand breaths, the Savage group and the heroes died.

Heero stood amongst the corpses. However, his hand was trembling, his hand that held a sword was trembling. For the first time, Heero killed a human, and not only one, but almost a hundred people died under his sword.

This was also Lady Yueying first time to witness this. However, she noticed amongst the corpses, there was a youth felt agonizing for killing these people.

Lady Yueying braced herself and approached the youth. She held the youth's trembling hand and said, "It's okay, what you did nothing wrong! If you did not kill them, the villager inside the hall will be the victim of this bandit bad deed!"

The hand stopped trembling, but tears fell from Heero's eyes. Lady Yueying flustered, but once again, she braced herself and hugged the tall Heero into her embrace, "It's okay! It's okay"

It took a while before Heero could calm down. After calming down, Heero faced Yueying with a serious look.

"I have a request!"
