Unfortunate Hero's Retirement Life

Chapter 324: Secret Ally



Heero rushed back alone by riding a private jet, one of the Hero League's properties for him to use.

Thanks to the private jet, it took him a few minutes to arrive. He could fly but he did not want to be the center of attention hence he took the private jet.

When he arrived at the academy backyard, Sun Zhou Yi was there, waiting for him.

"How is he?" Heero asked as he arrived. "He" in his mouth was Ryan White. This guy was the only source that could help him to track God Horas' underlings.

Sun Zhou Yi shook his head, an indication the situation was not good.

"Chaotic, you will know when you arrive there, Master,"

Heero and Sun Zhou Yi rushed into the dungeon. When he entered the dungeon, Heero could hear a scream's echo. It was a scream filled with madness rather than someone who was in pain.

The scream was getting louder as Heero got closer to Sun Zhou Yi's camp. As he was about to reach the camp, the scream suddenly stopped. A few seconds later the scream resounded again and stopped again after a few seconds. The situation was repeated a few times.

"Huh!?"

The master and disciple looked at each other as both were wondering what happened. However, soon they found the answer.

Right in front of where usually Sun Zhou Yi slept, they saw Ryan White get pinned down by Old Man Niadin.

That was right, Old Man Niadin was sitting on top of Ryan White. Each time Ryan White screamed, he would hit Ryan White's head and the latter stopped screaming for a few seconds.

"Oh, you are here," Niadin greeted Heero but he did not get up from Ryan's body.

Heero nodded and approached the old man, "So how is he?" He asked while looking at the crazed Ryan.

Looking at the condition, Ryan was certainly not okay. But he still asked to know the detailed condition from Niadin.

"He's okay!" Niadin gave an unexpected answer.

Heero blinked his eyes a few times. Ryan was certainly not okay. He appeared just like someone who suffered a mental issue. Niadin's answer confused Heero.

"It's fortunate for him, his head is still okay. This is just an aftereffect after the Abyss Parasite is taken out of his head. Give me a few days and he will return normal,"

Old Man Niadin took an initiative to take care of Ryan White.

"Are you sure?" Heero smiled at the old man.

"Mnn," Niadin nodded, "You can leave him to me,"

'Huhuhu… So he finally decided to come out,' Heero was happy inside.

After that, both were having a chat for half an hour. After that, Heero left the dungeon and without he realized, it was already late in the afternoon.

"Hahh…" Heero let out a sigh and he regretted a little to take this job. He was having a little time with his family since he became the President of the Hero League.

"There's no use regretting it now. I have fired the bullet might as well finish it,"

Just as he was about to head back to HQ to meet with Bai Xin Yue and Kang Seo-Yeon his smartwatch vibrated.

Brrr! Brrr! Brrr!

He looked down at his smartwatch. It was a message from Han Ying, "Come to the shop, Xin Yue and Seo-Yeon are here <3 (smiley emoji),"

Reading the message, his lips unconsciously curved upward. He then hummed as he made his way back to the noodles shop. There was a big smile plastered on his face.

When he got out of the Martial House and reached the preschool, Hong Yu was standing in the front of the preschool gate. She was waiting for him.

Sure enough, a big smile formed on her face when she saw her husband. She approached him and hooked her arm to her husband's arm. The couple headed back together, arm in arm.

When the couple arrived at the noodles shop. It was crowded as usual but there was a special table next to the window. Bai Xin Yue, Kang Seo-Yeon, and Han Ying were sitting with five hot-boiling noodles on the table.

The three women smiled upon noticing Heero and Hong Yu. At this point, Heero realized his wives must be aware that he did not have lunch and prepared this for him.

Spending time with his wives surely helped him to ease his mind. He enjoyed every moment he spent together with his wives.

After having lunch, Heero, Kang Seo-Yeon, and Bai Xin Yue headed toward the rooftop while Hong Yu and Han Ying prepared the dessert for them. Apparently, Kang Seo-Yeon and Bai Xin Yue found something unusual with one member of the White Household.

"We have investigated all the closest people to Ryan White and we found this!" Bai Xin Yue handed a picture of an old man to Heero.

"He is Rodin, an old butler of the White Household. He has been serving the White Household since young, 33 years to be exact. Born in an ordinary family from the outer city, Melvin White brought Rodin and his family to live with them,"

"Then our team found that the ordinary Rodin turned out to be a skilled fighter. It was 4 years and 3 months ago, a group of mafia tried to kidnap Ryan White's niece and they got blasted by Butler Rodin. Rodin prevented the kidnapping and killed all thirteen people that tried to kidnap Ryan's niece,"

Kang Seo-Yeon narrated the old man's background and profile. A reason why the old man was unusual.

"What's wrong with that?" Heero asked in confusion. The White Household took him in so there was a high possibility the old man was being nurtured by a big family such as the White Household.

"Of course, it's very wrong. Attempting to kidnap the White Household's core member was often to happen. Look at this case, it happened five years ago, seven months before he showed his skill, and Rodin was found at the crime scene. Guess what happened? The old man was stabbed in the stomach and stayed in the hospital for a month,"

"Three months before this one, the old man also got his neck broken from protecting the same person. Here, another case with this old man involved in the case…"

Bai Xin Yue began to show Heero a case after another with the old man involved within the case.

"Oh, there's another thing you should note, the thirteen mafias Rodin killed was one of the infamous group mafias. Seven months, how could Rodin grow so strong in just seven months?" Kang Seo-Yeon added another point which made the old man even more suspicious.

"Did our team find the old man's body at the scene?" Heero started to get suspicious of this old man as well. The story just did not add up.

"That's the point! We did not find his body at the scene!" Kang Seo-Yeon flicked her finger at Heero's question.

"But how could this old man grow so strong in just seven months? And why did he kill his family and the White Household? We are still investigating his motive," Bai Xin Yue scratched her forehead in confusion.

"There's no need to investigate his motive. I already knew his motive, it was to erase his trace, and he was not the real Rodin," Heero let out a sigh. His guess was spot on but it also meant he lost God Horas' underlings trail.

"What do you mean?" Bai Xin Yue was getting even more confused by Heero's conclusion.

"It could be a Morpher that morphed to be Rodin or maybe someone disguised as Rodin. Everything is possible in this case. The real Rodin already dead and our last clue is Ryan White,"

Kang Seo-Yeon and Bai Xin Yue nodded their heads. Heero had told them about the mastermind behind the Regal Kingdom so they were not surprised if the fake Rodin was a man from the dungeon.

Creak!

The door opened, Hong Yu and Han Ying came with a tray of dessert in their hands. Heero had another half an hour of relaxing time with his wives.

He promised King William to bring him to meet their allies. After bidding farewell to his wives, Heero headed toward the Xing Barbecue. It was Dazekh's favorite place to eat.

If his Grandpa met with Dazekh, Heero was sure they would meet there which meant King William was also there.

Sure enough, he met two Guardian Knights at the entrance of the Xing Barbecue.

When he arrived at the private room four old men and a young couple were having a great time chatting.

"Oh, you are here. Come and join us~," Old Man Dazekh greeted Heero warmly.

"Nope, not today," Heero shook his head as he pointed his finger at the young couple, "I am here to save them from your drunkard old men,"

There were lines of beers on the table. It was clear these old men wanted to drink.

With that, Heero left the room with King William and Alexa. When he reached outside the restaurant, he turned and met with King William's eyes.

"This time I don't allow you to bring anyone with you. The last ally will be our secret and I hope you won't tell anyone about them!" Heero's tone was deep and solemn.

The Guardian Knights next to King William tried to protest but Heero added, "If you don't want to meet them, I am okay as well. Because the people you will meet are the people who will truly help your kingdom!"
