Unfortunate Hero's Retirement Life

Chapter 215: Fake



Chapter 215: Fake

After the startling scene, no kids backed down from the Blood Oath. It was surprising to Heero. He thought a few or even dozens of kids would back down, intimidated by the oath.

However, not only the kids backed down, they became even more determined to enter the Heero Academy.

The guardian even encouraged the kids and their junior. Just like that, 162 kids officially became the first-generation disciples of the Heero Academy, including the 2nd prince of the Regal Kingdom.

In the late afternoon, right after the after-party, Heero and his groups gathered in his room.

Everyone in the room was looking at the same direction, toward Heero. From their faces, they certainly wanted to ask something, but none of them opened their mouths.

In the end, Kang Dong-Woo could not contain his curiosity longer and opened his mouth, "Master, does the Blood Oath truly effective? Why didn't I sign the blood oath as well?"

Everyone in the room with Hong Yu as an exception was curious about the Blood Oath. It was too surreal, something hard to believe, but it happened.

As for Kang Dong-Woo's second question, he received a slap on his head.

Pyak!

"Stupid! It's because your Master trusted you, so there's no need for you to sign the Blood Oath!" Kang Seo-Yeon slapped her brother's head to ask such a silly question.

But then, Heero's next statement shocked the entire room.

"It's fake!"

"The Blood Oath is fake. I was just scaring them so they won't do any evil in the future!"

Heero said it lightly as if it were nothing. After that, he took a sip of coffee that Hong Yu prepared for him.

Hong Yu already knew about this. Heero had told her when she and her sister helped Heero preparing the beast hide. But knowing it from Heero's mouth and witnessed it with her own eyes was completely a different matter.

Even until now, she was still shocked that her husband was that capable.

"F-fake!? But how?" Kang Seo-Yeon blurted out.

"Was the thunder fake? It can't be, right? It was too real to be fake!" Bai Xin Yue also had the same opinion as Kang Seo-Yeon.

She could tell the thunder was not fake. The same for the others.

"No, the thunder was real! But it has nothing to do with the oath! I summoned it! First, I"

Heero raised his right hand, then his palm glowed in red. It was the same sign when the blood oath was signed by the kids.

Heero told everything the secret behind the blood oath. He told them nothing about it.

"To deceive the kids into believing the oath, I have to deceive you guys as well!"

"You got us! It's splendid, even us tricked by the oath" Bai Shuang'er mumbled in return.

Heero shrugged and stretched his hand out, "The first recruitment is done! Tomorrow, I will have to choose a few heroes to be my pupils! Do you have any recommendations?"

His question was directed to the heroes in the room, Sun Zhou Yi, Musashi Hirata, Bai Xin Yue, and Kang Seo-Yeon.

"Why don't you choose yourselves? Next Monday, the Hero League will open big recruitment to fill the gap left behind by the dead after the war against the specter!"

Bai Xin Yue immediately gave the solution. But then, she frowned as she realized something.

"Didn't they inform you?"

She thought the person in charge did not mail the information to Heero. After all, Heero was still new in this field, and she heard not all Heero Instructors agreed to appoint the young Heero as the Chief of Hero Instructor.

She thought there was someone pulling a string and not informing Heero about this big event. The event was quite big as the Hero League had to recoup their loss.

Hearing those words, Heero immediately checked his smartwatch. He checked his mail, sure enough, there was an unread mail from the Hero League.

"Ah, I am busy with recruitment. I did not check my mail" Heero scratched his head embarrassedly.

"I see So next Monday"

Monday, Martial Hall of the Heero Academy, 5 a.m.

Heero gathered his 162 new disciples. Following the rules he set, the disciples had to stay in the dormitory that was prepared by the academy.

Everyone agreed to this with no exception. Even the kids who came from the core region had to come out to the outer region.

Standing in front of the kids, Heero put a carefree look. There were piles of training cricket in front of him. Each of the training circlets weighed 5 kg.

As for the kids, they stood straight with discipline and solemnity on their faces.

Some of the kids looked at Heero nervously while the other kids were excited to start the training.

"As you know, we will officially start training today. I don't care where you come from or who you are, there will be no special treatment for anyone!"

"Whether you are talented or not, all of you will have the same start. We will start with the basic, your foundation. We will start by training your body!"

"Take two training circlets and put it on your ankle!"

With his words, the kids took the training circlets. Surprisingly, the kids were disciples, they lined up properly and took the training circlet in turn.

Heero was satisfied with this while Kang Dong-Woo and Xu Lingxun stood behind him with a smug look on their faces.

They went through the same thing and they knew how hard the basics were.

"Let's guess how many will give up in the first week? The loser will treat the winner Xing Hotpot!" Kang Dong-Woo proposed a bet to Xu Lingxun.

Xu Lingxun did not immediately refuse the bet. He scanned the kids seriously.

His Master told him half of the disciples were chosen based on their origin. Half of 162 new disciples were from the outer region.

As someone who had experienced desperation and the suffering of living in the outer region. Xu Lingxun believed all the kids won't give up this chance, the chance to change their life.

Moreover, his Master did not charge these kids. They entered the academy free. But of course, the kids from the inner region had to pay a hefty price to enter the academy. He believed the kids from the outer region won't give up halfway.

Hence, Xu Lingxun only scanned the kids from the inner region. He was interested in betting. After a quick scan, he put his bet, "Five at max! What about you?"

"Kukuku Then I will put my bet with 13! The kids from the inner region never experienced the hardship of our Master's intense training"

Heero overheard his two youngest disciples' discussion. He rolled his eyes at them and interjected, "Stop with the nonsense Get ready to lead them out!"

"Yes, Master!"

Then Heero looked back at 162 kids. They all had worn the training circlet.

"Your first training is running! Follow your senior brothers!"

Surprisingly, no kids questioned about the running. They followed his instructions well and followed after Dong-Woo and Xu Lingxun.

With a satisfied smile on his face, Heero walked out of the academy.

Outside of the academy, two women were waiting for him, Bai Xin Yue and Kang Seo-Yeon. A new Star-X SUV parked next to them, a car bought with the academy's money, a car prepared for Heero.

"I told you, I can take a bullet train. You don't have to pick me up," Heero shook his head as he felt sorry for the two women.

"Pfft If you are sorry to me, you should smile often to me, " Kang Seo-Yeon replied with a chuckle.

"What's that?" Bai Xin Yue pointed at the thing in Heero's hand.

"This is?" Heero raised his hand. Something like a box wrapped with yellow clothes. It attracted Bai Xin Yue's attention.

"This is a lunchbox made by love!" He replied with a blissful smile.

Yes, it was a lunchbox prepared by Han Ying. She woke up early in the morning only to make this lunchbox. It showed how concerned she was on the first day of her husband's work.

Only with a lunchbox, Heero was deeply touched. He could feel the love behind the lunchbox.

Bai Xin Yue realized she just stepped on a mine. She immediately changed to another topic, "How're the kids?"

"The kids are surprisingly well-behaved! I thought the kids would cause trouble or something. It was surprising"

Bai Xin Yue succeeded in changing the topic. Both girls let out a relieved sigh. If they did not change the topic, they would be flooded by envy and jealousy.

Standing behind a glass, Heero looked down. Below was a huge arena, where the test took place.

Looking at the countless people who got tested to be a Hero. Heero merely looked down with a blank look.

He just could not believe that the test in the two girls' mouths was like this.

"This is the test?" Heero asked bewilderedly.

"Are you kidding me!!!???"
