Unfortunate Hero's Retirement Life 228 Too Weak

"Blame yourself for being cocky, young man!"

But then, Ryong Chong-Shik saw the young man in front of him grinned back. Even though he noticed something amiss, he tried to shake the uneasy feeling away as his spear pierced Heero's head.

Yes, his spear forcefully pierced the head. Then he realized something. No blood came out, in fact, the young man's figure in front of him vanished.

Right after his spear pierced the head, the figure vanished as a whole.

As the old man was confused as to what happened, excruciating pain transmitted from his body. 

He looked down and saw his body was torn open. His organ began to fall and he was standing on the pool of blood made on his own.

"H-how?" A feeble voice escaped from the old man's mouth before his body fell down, stopping breathing forever.

A legendary figure that was looked up to by many people died while the person himself did not know how he died. A peak figure in the Ranker Alliance, Ryong Chong-Shik of the Ryong Family, who kept making trouble for the Hero League ceased to exist from today onward.

Heero glanced at the door of the main building. He was not bothered by the corpse or even trying to cover up that he killed the Leader of the Ranker Alliance.

His eyes fixated at a certain spot where the last intruder was standing.

"Are you going to show yourself or…" Having not finished his words, Hanzo Keiji showed himself. He was standing near the door, looking at the corpse with an unbelievable expression plastered on his face.

The old man looked at the corpse blankly. He could not believe what he saw. They had a good chat just now, but now his friend turned into a corpse.

Heero saw tears fell from the old man's eyes and it was his turn to be surprised.

"It seems he's a precious friend of yours! You should spend your time together, enjoying the rest of your life with someone precious to you rather than taking something that does not belong to you, "

Heero commented while shaking his head. Though he said so, there was no remorse that could be seen from his eyes. He did not regret killing the old man, this was the thing he had to do to ensure his family's safety.

Today, they wanted to kidnap his daughter and failed. If he did not kill this old man, warning the others, these people might come up with more things that would endanger his family.

"What do you know!!!!" Suddenly, Hanzo Keiji snarled toward Heero. At the same time, his body vanished and appeared before Heero.

The old man slashed his katana downward. Heero, however, easily parried the katana with his spear.

Clang!

The old man did not give up. His body disappeared again and appeared next to Heero. He swung the katana toward Heero's neck now.

All of Hanzo Keiji's attacks doomed to fail as a spear stopped his sword. Even so, the old man did not give up. He madly attacked Heero nonstop, his figure flickered around Heero while the spear and the sword caused a spark around them.

Outside of the Heero Preschool, Bai Xin Yue stood in a daze. She blinked her eyes a few times, making sure she was not seeing a thing.

Her eyes looked at a spot, the spot where the corpse laid down. She was identifying the corpse.

"H-he is R-Ryong Chong-Shik, right? And he died? I-I am not seeing a thing, right?" Bai Xin Yue stuttered.

She was having a hard time to believe what laid before her.

"You are right! He is Ryong Chong-Shik, the current Ryong Family's head and also the Ranker Alliance leader!" Kang Seo-Yeon stood next to Bai Xin Yue and confirmed.

After that, both women turned toward the battle, where Hanzo Keiji madly attacked Heero. They could tell that the old man was attacking Heero in rage.

"We should stop them before the situation turns to worse!" Bai Xin Yue wanted to stop the fight, but Kang Seo-Yeon held her back.

"Stop it, this is the chance, the chance to root the annoying Ranker Alliance! Why would you bother to stop him from killing that old man?"

"Are you insane? Can't you look into a big picture? This could be a war between the Hero League and the Ranker Alliance!"

Bai Xin Yue instantly rebuked Kang Seo-Yeon's, but the latter merely shrugged her shoulder lightly.

"He has killed the leader anyway, does it make a difference if we rescue the other one? Moreover, it was those two old men who started this. They got what they deserved,"

Kang Seo-Yeon was more resolute than Bai Xin Yue. She had heard everything from Fatty Liang. It seemed the two old men wanted to do something to the Heero Preschool.

If not for Heero quick action, something might happen to his little sister.

'Yes, what could be worse than killing the leader?' Bai Xin Yue was persuaded and watched the fight from outside.

*** ***

"I thought you rankers are emotionless, it seems you are not that emotionless, " Heero muttered under the Hanzo Keiji series of attacks.

He was truly surprised that the old man was this angry when the other one was killed.

"Arghhh!" Hanzo Keiji's reaction was quite extreme. He roared angrily and brandished the sword toward Heero.

"All right, I will end your misery now!"

Clang!

Heero reflected the katana with his spear and caught the old man's neck with his other hand. Then, he slammed the old man down to the ground.

With a quick motion, he slashed the old man's throat with the tip of his spear.

Swoosh!

Blood spurted out of the old man's neck. Even so, Hanzo Keiji was still trying to swing his sword at Heero. But halfway to reach Heero, he lost his breath and his hand fell down.

At the last moment of his life, he was still trying to avenge his old friend's death.

His eyes were still wide open; the eyes filled with madness and fury, glaring at Heero before he took his last breath.

Heero looked at the old man and looked at his smartwatch. On his smartwatch were two pictures sent by Fatty Liang. The true identity of these two old men.

"So this old man is Legendary Class Ranker - Rank 4…" He muttered with a frown on his forehead.

He turned around to look at the other one, to confirm the other old man's identity.

"This old man is Ryong Chong-Shik, the Ranker Alliance leader!" Kang Seo-Yeon entered the yard with Bai Xin Yue.

Heero looked toward the voice and nodded his head, "Oh you guys are here~"

Bai Xin Yue came to the next corpse and looked at the corpse, "There's a trace of burn mark…"

She muttered and scanned the surrounding, "There's no trace of battle around. He was killed in one hit?" Bai Xin Yue looked toward Heero.

Both girls were fine with the gruesome scene before them. Bai Xin Yue was even trying to find out how Heero killed Ryong Chong-Shik.

"Hmm, he literally killed with one strike. But we had a little battle before I killed him. I want to probe how strong these rankers are, but it baffled me! How can these weaklings trouble the Hero League over the years?"

Heero satisfied the girl's curiosity and described the battle. Of course, he did not forget to criticize the Hero League.

Kang Seo-Yeon rolled her eyes, "It's you that is too strong, no us who's weak!"

"Then, what are you going to do next? The Ranker Alliance won't stay silent if they know their leader is killed, " Bai Xin Yue asked worriedly.

"They should worry about themselves! I am not going to let this matter slide just like this. I am going to destroy the Ranker Alliance!" Heero expressed his aim.

From the tone and his expression, the two girls knew Heero was serious with his words.
