The Hero
Volume 4 – Wizard Type
Chapter 2
Heroes usually don’t separate their daily lifestyles with their hero lifestyles. However, Haneul made up his mind to thoroughly hide his real name. After being recognized officially as a Rank A hero, it was a normal occurrence that Haneul would be the talk of many people.
The realization of having to keep up with a certain ‘image’ was a very scary thought. If a certain image of himself was formed, his movements would be restricted and that would cause dissonance to his everyday life.
Haneul did not want to be in the limelight everyday like a superstar.
However, in this world, there existed people called Hero Reporters and they risked their lives by coming into a hell like place like the earthquake, and captured footages of heroic deeds.
A Hero and Hero Reporter have a very strange, symbiotic relationship. Although Heroes were prone to dangerous missions and risking their lives, the amount of income they got was low. You could say that they were walking on a very thin, and risky line. However, the majority of Heroes never argued about their income.
The reason was simple.
Being a hero was an infinitely honorable existence. This has been an enforced education for a very long time, and could be considered to be the end result of brainwashing.
Also, the ones to raise the notch up another for these honorable heroes, were the Hero Reporters. They would capture the heroes’ fights, which allowed the whole world to see the strengths and sacrifices of these heroes. No one knew how much income the Reporters made, but supposedly it was the same amount as the Heroes. This shows how peculiar the view points are for this world.
‘An education that’s similar to brainwashing is a very scary thought, and reality showed that it was normal here. I’m sure with this in mind, the Hero Reporters are probably in this area as well right now?’
Out on the field, Hero Reporters risked their lives just like Heroes did. There was a very high chance that these people were within this warzone right now as well.
The earthquake level this time around was Level A. This meant that, most of the heroes that were currently here fighting, were of the A Rank. The reason this was said is very simple. Silver Knight was a Rank A hero that had a splendid debut during Central South’s earthquake, and was currently in the limelight, internationally.
‘I’m sure if people knew of my existence right now, there would be way too much talk.’
The talk about Central South, was finally slowly starting to die down.
Right then, Haneul picked up Ironman’s body and jumped backwards.
BOOOM!
“For a guy who has such a huge build, it’s quite a bit sneaky.”
As Haneul muttered these words, he dropped the loose bodied Ironman to the safety of the rear, then fiercely ran forward with his legs.
He was about to use the same method as before.
With an extraordinary speed, Haneul crossed through a great gap to reach the Giant, then flung his fist. A great explosion was caused from the fist, breaking the huge Giant’s posture.
Bang.
“Kuuuuuuuuu!”, the Giant screamed loudly.
Clang.
As Silver Knight’s right arm was reloaded with magic, he thrustedit forward and pounded the Giant in the face.
BA BOOOMM!!
The head exploded as its shredded pieces flew out everywhere.
There was no exception either this time around.
With Haneul’s overwhelming attack power, 2 Giant’s have already been killed, just like that.
“WAAAHHHHHHH!!”
A loud cheer could be heard from inside. The sound was coming from the civilians who were able to see the collapse of the Giant, through the holes of the shelter. They were told not to come up, but it seems like the civilians already made their way up to the front. These civilians thought for sure, that the Giant was beaten by Ironman.
“Ironman! Ironman!”
The people were cheering very warmly, and Ironman who could hear everything outside, couldn’t lift his head up due to embarrassment. The truth was that Ironman made it past the Giant, ran away, and almost got killed at the same time.
‘I would have nothing to say even if Silver Knight mocked me.’
“Ironman? What are you doing, the people are calling for you.”
“Huh?”
“Please respond to their cheers. The one who protected them was you.”
“B, but…….”
“A hero’s job is to protect the lives of innocent people right? You did an admirable job of doing just that. It has nothing to do with me.”
Ironman was very shocked.
He could never recall a time where a hero gave up their honor and fame.
‘He’s on a whole different level. This must be how heroes are if they’re Rank A or above. It’s something a guy like me wouldn’t be able to do.’, thought Ironman.
However, it was hard for him to follow through with Haneul’s request, because his conscience wouldn’t allow it. Since Silver Knight wanted to be away from the limelight, Ironman could do nothing but stay silent.
After getting rid of the Giant, the road back to the shelter was clear.
Haneul carried the weak and magicless Ironman back to the entrance of the shelter.
“Ah! It’s Ironman!”
“Wahhhhhhh!!”
More cheers could be heard.
Ironman was extremely embarrassed, but stood tall as he listened to the cheers.
“Uht! The hero next to him is…….”
“Hero in Silver. It’s the Hero in Silver!!”
“If it’s the Hero in Silver, then………the Rank B hero from Central South?”
The majority of those from the shelter were madly gossiping. Everyone was interested in this famous hero, who was now standing in front of them.
That’s when Haneul, carrying Ironman, walked into the interior of the broken down shelter. Everyone thought Haneul would say something cool or fabulous like all the other heroes.
However, Haneul just slightly lowered his head to bow, and ran out of the shelter as fast as he could.
There was no way to say that the shelter was safe. The gate from the earthquake was still open, and it was unpredictable when more monsters would rush through from the other side.
Haneul solidified that thought in his mind.
Chapter 2 – End.
