Unfortunate Hero's Retirement Life

Alliance House

The Legendary Rankers held another meeting between themselves. Ryong Minjun and Mathias Oliver cooked another plan for Heero.

"What now? How many times do you plan to call the meeting? Can we stop the petty revenge and focus on rebuilding our strength?" Park Haneul was the first one to open his mouth.

All of his words were directed to Ryong Minjun, the incompetent leader. At least what most rankers called Ryong Minjun behind him.

After they found out that the Hanzo Clan did not take the bait. They agreed to put aside all the grudges to Heero temporarily and focused on rebuilding the alliance's overall strength. But yet, the Leader Alliance suddenly summoned them for a meeting. Everyone in the room had guessed this must be related to Heero again.

Ryong Minjun sneered inside, 'Just you wait, Park Haneul! Just wait until my father is back, it's your time to experience hell!'

He did not say it out and shot a glance at his brother, Mathias Oliver. In fact, it was Mathias Oliver's idea, everything, from initiating the meeting and the idea. All of it came from Mathias Oliver. But Ryong Minjun supported the idea, the time had come for them to make yet another move.

"The time has come, the time for Heero to pay all he did to us!" Mathias Oliver opened his mouth.

Sure enough, the meeting must be related to Heero. Park Haneul shook his head. He closed his eyes and leaned back on his chair. He decided not to oppose the two brothers this time.

Instead, he wanted to use this chance to destroy the Ryong Family's influence over the Ranker Alliance.

Thanks to the missing Ryong Chong-Shik and Hanzo Keiji. He became the third most influential ranker after the two sons from the Ryong Family.

As long as the rankers lost their trusts to the Ryong Family, he could take the leader position for himself and the Ranker Alliance would become the Park Family.

Legendary Class Ranker - Rank 6, Jayden Duran frowned when he heard that.

"Didn't we agree to put this matter on hold temporarily, "

Everyone agreed that they would not touch Heero temporarily. At least not until the Ranker Alliance recovered their strength and influence.

"But we can't miss this chance. He is away and SES is dispatched to the Regal Kingdom. The kingdom is attacked by the specters!" Mathias Oliver shared crucial information.

Everyone was surprised when they heard this. The kingdom was attacked and SES was sent as reinforcement.

"He is not in his home, his two strongest disciples are away! This is our chance! I am not asking you to destroy the district, but to save my father and Hanzo Keiji. It will be the main priority!"

Jayden Duran wavered when he heard that. Indeed, if they wanted to save Ryong Chong-Shik and Hanzo Keiji, this was the right to make their move.

However, the other Legendary Class Rankers did not easily believe Mathias Oliver's words.

"Is that true?" Jayden Duran looked at Park Haneul.

The Park Family had a big influence over the Hero League. So Park Haneul must know something big like this. However, Park Haneul's surprised expression made the other Legendary Class Rankers doubt the validity in Mathias Oliver's information.

Park Haneul did not answer the question but opened his smartwatch to contact his brother.

Five minutes later, Park Haneul received the answer. He nodded to the others, confirming the information was true.

Regal Kingdom

Miao Miao on his neck, Moira on the back, Myung-Hee and Lan Lan on his embrace. Heero brought the kids with him as the group rushed toward the main castle.

Ki Swords floated around the group, securing the group from the specters. Of course, the Ki Swords belonged to Heero.

Benjamin was in the front, leading the way while Alexa was behind with two knights who brought the unconscious Crown Prince.

Heero's priority was the King. If the King also fell while the Crown Prince was unconscious, the order in the kingdom would fall. Without a leader, the kingdom would fall into a state of chaos hence Heero prioritized to save the King.

Fifteen minutes of running, the group arrived at the huge castle. The main castle was built based on the medieval era design with the advanced material.

To their surprise, there was no specter around the castle. Benjamin was relieved when he saw no specters around. That means the King was safe.

The same for the knight and Alexa, they were relieved at the castle that was not affected by the chaos.

There were ten black knights guarding the main gate. They stood there as they did not know the actual situation the kingdom faced.

"Tsk, we have to hurry! The specters have infiltrated the main castle!" Heero's words alarmed Benjamin.

While they could not see it, Heero could see the ten knights were Morpher. They were specters and the original knight must be turned into a specter.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Heero controlled his Ki Sword and attacked the knight. His control over the Ki Sword was far superior compared to Sun Zhou Yi.

The knight or the Morphers were caught off guard by the sudden attack. They failed to react in time and had their body struck by the Ki Sword.

Right after the sword struck the knights, black gas came out where the sword pierced their body. It was a clear indication that the knights were truly specters.

Heero picked up his pace and kicked the steel gate.

Bang!

With a kick, the steel gate was broken. The gate flew inside the castle and caused a big commotion.

As soon as they entered the main castle, they found many corpses lying down on the ground. All of them were knights.

"Where is the King's room!?" Heero asked Benjamin.

"There! My father should be in that room!" Benjamin pointed at the golden door on the second floor.

Heero immediately leaped to the second floor while the kids were starting to scream, startled by the sudden leap.

As soon as he reached the second floor, he kicked the golden door with less strength. It would be absurd if the King died because of the flying door.

Bang!

The golden door was broken what's inside came into their sight.

"Close your eyes!" Heero covered the kids' eyes. The scene inside was too gruesome for the kids.

It turned out it was a throne hall. From the door to the throne, the path was obstructed by dead bodies. Dead bodies belong to the knights, knights that suffered a horrible death.

Most of the bodies were torn apart, innards and blood covered the beautiful floor. At the end of the hall, ten black-cloaked figures stood in a line.

When the door was opened forcefully, they turned around.

"Hoho… You come! We thought of visiting you after taking care of the King, but you are much faster than we expected!" A rough and smug voice rang in the throne hall.

However, Heero did not bother with the voice. His gaze landed on the throne. There was a corpse on the throne, his eyes were dug and there were two big holes on the chest and belly.

Even though Heero never met the King, he was sure the corpse was the King of the Regal Kingdom. The crown on his head was the obvious indication of that.

His heart and innards were dug out. All the teeth were missing, the golden robe now covered in blood.

The King of the Regal Kingdom died.
