Unfortunate Hero's Retirement Life

Bai Xian Ming was sitting inside his office. Taking care of tons of the paper works needed to be done by him.

From time to time, he would tilt his head. Looking outside through the window. He was waiting for Heero to come, but he was always disappointed.

Heero rarely came to the Hero League since he had recruited the apprentice. He wanted to have a chat with the young guy as there were many things he had in his mind.

Remembering there were so many disciples Heero had to train, including the twenty apprentices. Bai Xian Ming restrained himself to visit Heero and continued with his paper works.

Brrth! Brrth! Brrth!

The old man glanced at his wrist and his eyes brightened. It was a text from Heero.

He put away his works and unlocked the smartwatch to read the text.

[There's an urgent situation!]

Bai Xian Ming frowned, he blinked his eyes a few times.

"So? What do you want? Can you even send me a complete text?"

"Don't you know this old man is quite busy…"

Even though the old man complained and sounded unhappy, he still stood up and took his coat. He planned to head the Xing District to meet Heero.

He was humming as he went out of his office.

When he reached the underground parking, his young driver was ready. Xiao Yun was puzzled where the old man wanted to go this time. They just got back from the Xing District this morning.

"Where are we going, Sir?"

"Xing District!" The old man answered while opening the back seat.

"But we just came back from the Xing District this morning?" Xiao Yun asked.

"Really? I don't recall going anywhere this morning. I have mountains of work, there's no way I have a leisurely time to visit the Xing District! You must be hallucinating, "

Bai Xian Ming tapped the young man's shoulder while shaking his head. He tapped the shoulder three times and went to the back seat.

"Was I really hallucinating?" The poor Xiao Yun began to question himself.

Xu Lingxun walked back and forth in front of the cabin house. Though he just met with the little, he was concerned over her.

He tried to put his ears on the door, wanting to know what actually happened inside. But no voice could be heard. The cabin was too quiet as if no one was inside.

It had been almost half an hour, but Xu Lingxun knew he had to be patient. His Master was curing a mutation, after all.

Inside the Cabin House

Moira's body spasmed on the top of the bed. Her face was distorted from the pain. It was simply unbearable as if her flesh was being torn apart.

There were wet white clothes on her mouth. She bit the clothes hard and twisted the bedding with her small hand.

Sweats soaked her clothes and also the bed. But she managed to hold out. Just like she told Heero before, she was good at enduring pain. Mixture sweat and tears moistened her face though.

As for Heero, he was standing next to the bed. He had his left hand on her abdomen and his right hand on Moira's chest.

He was doing a cleansing, cleaning the gray energy with his Ki. By injecting Ki into her body, the Ki would absorb the gray energy.

Two different energies clashed, that was why the little girl was in pain. Moreover, the gray energy had fused into her flesh, intensifying the pain by many folds compared to an awakening.

Even so, the little girl managed to hold for almost half an hour.

"A little bit more, it's almost over, " Heero encouraged the little girl.

During the process, he kept checking her body with his Mystical Eyes. There was a little bit more gray energy in her hand.

Moira nodded her head in response despite the unbearable pain she had to endure.

A few minutes passed…

Heero pulled his hand and let out a relieved sigh. He smiled at the little girl who laid weakly on the pain, "Everything is over, everything is fine… You can rest now, "

He rubbed Moira's wet red hair.

She weakly nodded and closed her eyes. Not long after that, a light snore was heard. As soon as she closed her eyes, she fell asleep.

Heero sighed and went out to meet his anxious disciple.

As soon as the door opened, Xu Lingxun flashed to the door.

"How?" His anxious tone and look already told Heero how concerned his disciple was.

"She's fine, get new clothes for her!" Heero took out a card and threw it at Xu Lingxun.

"Don't give her your clothes, buy her the new one!"

Bam!

After that, Heero closed the door. As for Xu Lingxun, he dashed downstairs. The worries on his face cleared and now he was beaming in happiness.

His Master said she was fine. It meant the mutation was cured. He was happy for her.

*** ***

Half an hour later, inside the cabin house

Moira was sleeping soundly with her new light pink pajamas. Earlier, Heero washed her body and changed the bedding. Letting the girl have a comfortable sleep.

Xu Lingxun was smiling on the side as he noticed the change on Moira. The little girl's skin turned less dark and a few of the snake scales were falling off.

"She's fine, but it will take sometime before she returns to normal, "

It was his Master's diagnosis which meant everything went smoothly.

The smile on Xu Lingxun's face became wider as he heard that.

Heero was also happy, though he did not know why Xu Lingxun became overly concerned with the little girl.

Brrth! Brrth! Brrth!

Heero's smartwatch vibrated. He checked the smartwatch and found it was Musashi Hirata who called him.

"I am going outside, you watch her!" He did not pick the call as he took a bamboo container from the cupboard.

"When she wakes up later, let her have a medicine bath!"

Heero had everything prepared. The medicine bath would help soothe Moira's aching body and it would also heal her body faster.

After that, he went outside and picked the call.

"What's wrong? Do you encounter trouble inside the dungeon?" His disciples called him, they must have faced a difficult situation.

"Yes, Master! We found people living inside the dungeon, "

The first answer did not surprise him, but when Hirata said they met a living person inside the dungeon, he was surprised.

"Then?"

"We are having trouble communicating with them. They speak the Dramonia Language you taught me. Can you come over and speak to them? We might get more information from them rather than searching blindly inside the dungeon,"

This time, Heero was no longer surprised. He was smiling as the truth was revealed in front of him. He remained composed and asked the details.

It took Hirata a few minutes to explain everything.

"Watu City? Woman in purple-clad? Purple Mountain? It's so obvious those places existed on Dramonia and those two places are indeed close, "

"So the dungeon is actually part of Dramonia? What happened with the real Dramonia then? I will only know the truth when I meet them, "

Heero muttered under his breath.

"Master? Hello, Master?" Hearing no reply, Musashi Hirata called out.

"Ah, yes? What's up?"

"So… Can you come and help us?"

"No problem, I will come but not now. In two days, I will come in two days. I have to go somewhere else first!" Heero gave his answer.

Yes, before he visited the third dungeon, he wanted to visit the first dungeon first. There must be something he missed inside the first dungeon. He had to check that place once again.
