Unfortunate Hero's Retirement Life

Weng Weng Weng!

The spear and the greatsword landed on the ground.

Whish! Whish!

Right after that, two frost arrows whistled through the air and shot Park Haneul and Jayden Duran's thigh.

"Arghhhh!!!" The pain being struck by an arrow awakened the two men from their shocks. They screamed in agony.

The same as Ryong Minjun, their left leg froze. Park Haneul tried to pull his leg from the ice but failed. His left leg would not even budge from the ice, completely frozen.

Mao Chingseng and Mathias Oliver looked at each other. It was quite shocking three of them were caught this fast. But it was not the time to be shocked, both nodded and took this chance to sneak into the district.

Swosh! Swosh!

Both rushed closer to the wall and leaped. They thought everyone's attention was on the battle between Musashi Hirata and their five comrades, they took this time to sneak in. However, Butcher Wang was not someone who could be trifled with.

Out of nowhere, Butcher Wang appeared on the wall, right before their face.

"Hello~, " Butcher Wang let out a small grin.

Mao Chingseng and Mathias Oliver were shocked by the sudden appearance of Butcher Wang.

'As expected of his disciple, none of them are normal!' Mathias Oliver exclaimed secretly as he thrust his spear forward, 'But I come prepared!'

Mao Chingseng also subconsciously hacked his longsword toward Butcher Wang.

The spear pierced Butcher Wang's left chest while the sword hacked the waist. Unfortunately, no blood spilled out as the one they hit was an afterimage. Yes, Butcher Wang was no longer on his original spot.

Mathias Oliver and Mao Chingseng were bewildered with the sudden disappearance of Butcher Wang. He was truly like a ghost.

Then, they felt their legs were being grabbed by a hand. A strong force came from the hand and pulled them.

Boom! Boom!

They were smashed to the ground by the hand and failed to sneak in.

Kuack!

Both had their back slammed hard on the ground and coughed up blood. Looking up to the wall, they just could not believe they were being thrashed by a hunter.

They could see Butcher Wang was still standing on the wall, looking down at them, on the spot where they attacked before. However, they were also sure the one who smashed them down was no other but Butcher Wang.

"Hoho… It seems now I can be compared to a Legendary Class Ranker," Butcher Wang chuckled.

Mao Chingseng immediately stood up. He could not accept the defeat against Butcher Wang. Heero's second disciple, a hunter, and his strength were unknown. In the Fighter Anteriority, no free fighter could match the guy as Butcher Wang overwhelmed the whole tournament by himself.

'It must be that! I am careless and underestimate him too much! Let's get serious…'

Buzzzt! Buzzzt!

Lightning buzzed out of his longsword. Yes, with the help of the Wu Family, Mao Chingseng gained Lightning awakening ability. But because of his greed, he betrayed the Wu Family.

"Let's see how you are going to handle this!" Mao Chingseng slashed his sword toward Butcher Wang. The lightning burst out from the longsword.

The lighting in the shape of a sword toward Butcher Wang.

Swish!

The lightning sword pierced Butcher Wang's afterimage yet again. The afterimage blurred and Butcher Wang's figure disappeared.

"Your lightning sword is fast but still far compared to that man's!" Butcher Wang's voice came from behind.

Mao Chingseng subconsciously slashed his sword to the back. However, the sword missed a few millimeters away from Butcher Wang's neck. As if Butcher Wang had calculated it.

Mao Chingseng gritted his teeth, "Let's see how you are going to escape from this one!?"

Out of sudden, Mao Chingseng's body secreted lightning. Then the lightning exploded and engulfed a twenty meters area.

"Mao Chingseng! Are you insane!!??" Mathias Oliver was in the range of the explosion. He tried to escape from the lightning explosion but he could not leave unscathed. It was just too sudden and he was so close to Mao Chingseng.

He managed to escape, but his body was charred thanks to the explosion. Mathias Oliver fell with one of his knees and breathed heavily. He felt each part of his body grow numb from the lightning.

However, Mao Chingseng paid no attention to Mathias Oliver. He scanned the surroundings, trying to locate Butcher Wang. But he failed to find Butcher Wang's figure until a familiar voice entered his ears.

"If you are looking for me, I am up here!"

Mao Chingseng looked and found Butcher Wang was on his original spot on the top wall, unscathed.

"Stop playing around, Butcher Wang!" Musashi Hirata could not help but remind Butcher Wang.

The latter looked toward the voice and found the other five had been subdued by Lyera. All fives had their feet frozen, stuck. The five tried to break free but their force was clearly insufficient to break the ice.

Mathias Oliver looked at Musashi Hirata blankly. He just could not believe that five Legendary Class Rankers were defeated just like that. The battle did not even last five minutes but the result was a crushing defeat.

'Just how strong these people are?'

'Ah!? No wonder father and Hanzo Keiji are captured. If the disciples are this strong, then their Master…'

Mathias Oliver could not imagine that. The glory of the Legendary Class Ranker was nothing to these people, at all.

Mao Chingseng was still not aware of his surroundings. His mind was occupied with how to deal with Butcher Wang.

This time it was his feet shrouded with lightning. Unfortunately, Butcher Wang had seen a similar move. It meant Mao Chingseng trying to increase his speed.

"Just wondering how fast are you compared to him?" Butcher Wang muttered as he waited for Mao Chingseng to make his move.

Buzzzt!

The lightning burst out from Mao Chingseng's feet and his body shot toward Butcher Wang. With his sword directed toward Butcher and his body shrouded in lightning, Mao Chingseng's figure streaked forward. In the blink of an eye, Mao Chingseng's sword was about to pierce Butcher Wang's chest.

"Fast! But not fast enough to take me down!"

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Butcher Wang's figure blurred, leaving an afterimage. Not only one, but many afterimages were created.

Mao Chingseng's figure which was shrouded in lightning pierced the afterimage of Butcher Wang. The shock was not enough to describe what he felt right now.

He bypassed many afterimages to the air, but then a hand grabbed his ankle again. The hand pulled him down and smashed him down.

Bam!

It did not stop there, a kick landed right on his back head, making Mao Chingseng pass out.

After that, Butcher Wang waved his hand down toward Musashi Hirata and reported, "Done!"

Mathias Oliver's gaze landed on Butcher Wang. A hunter, a profession he never put into his eyes, beating down a Legendary Class Ranker - Rank 12.

On the other side, a newly promoted Emperor Class Hero and an unknown archer subdued five Legendary Class Rankers. Everything was something that he never imagined would happen someday, but it happened tonight.

After watching everything from the side like Mathias Oliver realized they stood no chance from the start.

'Escape!'

That one word instantly flashed in his head. Yes, he had to escape immediately from here.

'I am sorry, Father. Your son is unfilial and incompetent!'

Mathias Oliver turned around, he wanted to leave this place, but then a man suddenly appeared in front of him.

Butcher Wang with his thick beard appeared right before his face. Grinning toward Mathias Oliver, "Hello, where are you going, sir?"

"Die!" Mathias Oliver terrified and subconsciously stabbed his spear forward. Unfortunately, the current Mathias Oliver had no longer a will to fight and in a fright state of mind. It was just a random stab that was easily avoided by Butcher Wang.

Mathias Oliver found the beard disappeared, but then, he looked at his surroundings and found many of Butcher Wang looked at him. Despite knowing all of this was an afterimage, it only made him even more terrified.

Mathias Oliver opened his mouth, he was about to scream, but then no voice came out of his mouth. His body collapsed and he lost his consciousness.

Butcher Wang appeared right behind Mathias Oliver's collapsing figure. He looked back at Hirata, "Done! The sneakers have been neutralized!"

Butcher Wang walked toward Musashi Hirata and Lyera hopped down from the wall. She looked at the five unconscious people and asked, "What are we going to do with them? Lock them up in the dungeon?

"No, leave them be! We have achieved our goal! We go back now!" Musashi Hirata gave an unexpected reply that shocked Butcher Wang.

"Why? We should lock them up and give them some lessons… Actually, killing them is much better! Less annoying people would bother us!" Butcher Wang made an unexpected remark as his eyes glinted viciously.

He never forgot about his daughter's incident who almost died in the hand of a Silver Class Ranker. Even though her daughter was saved by Heero, his hatred toward rankers deepened.

"No! If Master really wishes so, they would be dead already. But Master spared them despite all the trouble they created. Killing them is not the way Master wanted to end them, right Lingxun?"

Musashi Hirata turned his head toward the dark corner. There, a young boy stood and looked at the unconscious rankers with a deep hatred. From his eyes, a strong killing intent leaked out. If he wanted to, he could pull the sword and kill the unconscious rankers.

But then, the boy shook his head and turned around. He suppressed his thirst for revenge and left the place.
