《I don't want to be a hero》Chapter 3: All hell broke lose
Advertisement
You can probably guess what happened when I say they didn't have to pay for the demolition cost, right?
Let's just say they wouldn't have a place to come back after that day, so it actually didn't matter if they stayed or not. Well, they didn't know that
Not yet at least
To them, it was another "beautiful" day on the slums, full of fun and happiness, and rainbows, and unicorns, and candy and other "wonderful" things
Life was "great" for them as you can probably guess, and the best part was that their life had all those things I just mention
The deal involved "candy", they were happy and having fun at the moment, and soon they would see a "rainbow", a "unicorn" and other beautiful and deadly things
I mean, you probably guessed, but soon they would get invaded by "superheroes", throwing around their powers and making a mess of everything
But like I said before, let's not just jump ahead
It all started simpler. First came their landlords, ordering them to move away but stay near. With no other choice, everyone on that side took their stuff and moved to the other side
That was when Max decided to stop teaching us letters and started reading a book so everyone would calm down and don't panic
The landlords brought the usual grunts, all dressed in a cheap suit, black glasses and probably a "piece" under their clothes
But unlike usual, they also brought 2 of their supers, Cat, and Red Eyes
Cat, like her name suggested, liked to dress like a cat, with the ears, tail, and claws on her fingers. She usually dressed sexy in all black leather and sneakers(to some disappointment). her abilities were muscle memory, great kinetic vision, and great agility, so she can basically mimic any martial arts she saw, making her a master of close to close combat. Besides, her claws were extremely sharp with poison on their tips, making her an "A" list villain

Like Cat, Red Eyes also was an "A" class villain, but different in both the way he dressed and his powers. He liked to wear expensive tailored suits, usually red or black according to his mood(red that day) and a pair of red glasses. His power was laser eyes, that he could control at will, so the glasses were actually unnecessary, just a fashion thing.He lost power the further away he was, and it drained him the more he used his power, but at close range, he would disintegrate a normal person easily
And since this two were two of the three heavy hitters of the group, and they usually brought only 1 for the special deals, which made this special deal extra special
Not like the kids and the rest of the bystanders notice.Even though they have seen those two from time to time during special deals, and knew they should stay as far away as possible, they didn't see the difference between seen one or seen two, even if it was the first time they saw the two together. All because it wasn't their problem, they were just bystanders
Well, some of the old guys did leave, even when they knew everyone was watching then leave and wouldn't be able to come back. Those probably managed to put two and two together and were wise enough to get the f-ck out of there before it was too late
As for the rest, they either didn't notice, didn't care enough or decided to gamble
And for the 4 kids, and most of the other young kids? they didn't notice and paid the price later
Some say ignorance can be a blessing, that wasn't the case this time
Instead, they kept on listening to Max story while the Landlords waited for their sellers to show up

They had to wait an hour, but they did show up in the end
It was a group of people in gray robes, all covering their faces with hoods, kind of intimidating I must say
Meanwhile, Max stopped reading since all the bystanders(including the kids) looked at the new arrivals in a curious gaze
They knew the usual buyers and sellers, so when someone new appeared, curiosity got the best of people
Anyway, one of the robes guys was carrying a suitcase and approached the two supers from the mafia that were sitting on a table on one side, and took a chair on the other side while the rest stay standing
"Did you bring the money?"(robe guy)
"Here it is, did you brought the stuff?"(Red Eyes) said while showing the briefcase with money inside
"Of course"(Robe guy) said while showing hs briefcase
Inside you could see hundreds of yellow pills
It didn't take a genius to see it was a drug or something like that
And it was the moment he showed the pills that they show up
The heroes
They didn't show up guns blazing, instead, it turned they were there from the start
Among the group was Missing, a guy that could make himself and anything near unnoticed. You would notice him or those he disappeared as soon as someone got close or he stopped his ability, but it was great for infiltration missions and for surprise attacks
He also brought Unicorn, an "A" class handsome hero dressed in grey with a cape and a mask with a horn on his head. He liked to call himself the defender of beautiful woman and he was the stupid though and strong kind
Angel, a pretty lady in all white with a mask and wings on her back. She could heal almost any injury in a matter of minutes, and even regrown limbs
Blue lighting, an "A" female speedster dressed in an all blue suit with white lighting around
Aegis, an "A" hero capable of making force fields that could be used to protect or encapsulate people
And outside was Silent Sniper, a thinker with amazing accuracy and different kind of shots according to the situation
They were an "A" list group of superheroes that should be perfect for the situation. They would be great for both attacking, and making sure no bystander gets hurts, so they were pretty confident in dealing with the situation
And you could tell by how they suddenly appeared to threaten both "criminal" groups instead of a surprise attack
"Surrender now and no one will be harmed, we have the place surrounded so there is no escape"(Unicorn)said in a threatening voice
Instead, both criminal parties look at each others, lifted their briefcases, and after a small nod, they throw it at each other
For the looks of things, they were prepared in case something like that happened, because as soon as cat and the robe guy each catch their respective Suitcase, all hell broke lose

Storm of the Elementals
The apocalypse was something that people were expecting to happen sooner or later, rising sea levels and everything. What our protagonist didn't expect was it to be from a system, let alone the fact that he missed it. Waking up as an elemental and being given frighteningly little info from a system that seemed a little off , stuck with 3 other eccentric individuals that he could almost swear are a bit dodgy, and not being quite sure he was human anymore, it was the start of a long day. It only got longer when he found out he was moved to a whole different world. ~ This is a slow burn story, focusing on the world and what happens if an eccentric historian gets transported in a world with systems and power that are not quite meant for him. ~ Some things you can expect: -No harem, god no. -Yes the protagonist is strong, no he isn't completely OP. -Other people who have been changed, he isn't the only special or chosen one who got transported or messed with. -It is sad to actually have to put this here, but the main character does shockingly have common sense.

If not everyone then at least some people.It will have a little more drama, just to set a plot to catch sanjana. In the beginning, the game might be on her side, but the in the end it will turn against her.Give a look, u won't be disappointed.[I don't believe in making my readers to wait for long.
