《"I Am The Hero"》Chapter 9
Advertisement
After Ash left the room. Leaving me behind by myself.
Maybe I should think what should I do, now that I am where I wanted to be. Ah right, the plan looking at the quest to do the next day and after finding the quest that got my interest, maybe go out explore the city a bit more till the sunset. I saw an inviting looking alleyway while I was on my way on the city center. After that find a place to rest for the night and then go back on the adventurers’ guild to take the quest on the next day.
Now that I think of it. Andrew is such a nice guy bringing me to the adventurer’s guild building and he didn’t leave any of my belonging behind even though it’s kind of heavy and all (well the weight of my stuff probably won’t be that much of a nuisance to him with that body of his). Perhaps I could thank him by inviting him to lunch, of course I’ll also ask Ash to join after all Ash said they are related (I don’t believe that they are really related compare to the huge difference in their physics). No perhaps I’ll invite them some other time, after I completely recover from that encounter.
I think I am fully rested now especially my mental health from that encounter. I stand up, after I finished preparing my stuff and move close to the door to go outside of the room. This door probably leads to the adventurer’s guild lobby. I grab the doorknob to open the door, but before I could open the door, I hear voices.
“Hey pretty lady, how bout ditch this place and have some fun together”
“Please let go of me and stop calling me a pretty lady”
That voice, I know that voice its Ash. She's in trouble I need to help her!!
I hurriedly open the door and saw Ash getting pinned down against the wall by a buff looking guy. He’s probably an adventurer or someone aiming to become one. I look around to see people just staring at them some are even trying to hide their smile. Why is there no one helping her? Are they all sadistic? They just watching someone right in front of them getting harass. It’s not just someone it’s the most beautiful girl in here its Ash. I need to stop this guy and save her.
I toss my baggage somewhere near me and rush toward them to save Ash from his hands… I step on a banana peel before slipping and losing my balance I blindly stretch my hand out to hold on something to maintain my balance.
“Ah, I got something!!” but it didn’t matter for it didn’t maintain my balance, dropping to the floor and it seems that the thing I grabbed slide down. Now that I think of it what the hell did, I grab onto, I look toward my hand and saw it was a black cloth wait… this look the same as Ash’s skirt. So, this is the time where I can finally see a girl’s panty, I never thought that I can see a girl’s panty in this young age (it’s not really a young age if you count my previous life age together with the age I am now). I look up to where the guy standing, I saw his jaw-dropping expression to what he is seeing right now. Well who am I kidding to see the panty of the most beautiful girl any man will have the same expression. Ah I think I prepare myself to look at her panty.

I turn my head with excitement towards Ash, but to meet with utter horror. The once joy I had, immediately turn to misery.
“Ha-ha look an elephant with a huge trunk. Oh, look the elephant raising his huge trunk.” Gabriel said with a dead voice.
“What’s with all the ruckus!!” a man voice coming from upstairs.
------------------------------------------------
-Aqua’s perspective-
I kept watching of the bastard waiting for an opportunity to see his demise, but of course that won’t happen unless I act.
After reaching the human settlement they called Eyinas. The bastard walks around and then he met a guy named Andrew and for some reason he fainted, perhaps he’s weak and fainted from walking around. Well that guy carried him to a building and inside a room. There’s only one human in there that seems to be resting. Andrew left the bastard in that room. Now that I am talking about this human settlement it feels like I have been here before, after all I’ve been all over the world looking for this bastard. Or perhaps it’s just a coincidence I don’t see any familiar human I met and there’s some building I don’t remember being there.
Ah finally the bastard conscious. As he opened his eyes, He immediately look towards to the human that were in the room. That human introduce itself as Ashley and wanted to be called Ash. They talk about a fruit of a man-eating plant, which I don’t care about. Ash offered the fruit to the bastard but seems that was denied. Ash seems to be saddened by getting rejected, but after seeing Ash becomes sad the bastard changes his mind and accepted the offer of the fruit. After receiving the fruit from Ash, he gives five small round pieces of gold. I don’t know why he exchange the gold for a fruit. To be honest I have not much knowledge about human culture or any other race culture to be exact.
The human named Ash finally left the room, leaving this bastard behind. He is just staring there or is he thinking of something. Oh, he finally stood up and approach the door. He stops as his hands grabs the doorknob. I hear voices on the other side of the room, oh there’s a familiar voice I think it’s from the human named Ash.
He suddenly opens the door as soon as he heard the voice of Ash. He stood at the door frame and looks around sees that Ash is being pinned to the wall by another human. Hmm now that I look around there’s a lot of humans in this building oh, the floor is littered with the fruit’s peel, I can remember from their conversation that the peel is quite slippery I should warn hi-wait no this will be fun to watch.
He seems to be preparing to run towards Ash and the other human, oh he really didn’t saw the peel of the fruit on the floor.
Gabriel runs then step on the peel and slip.
Hahaha what an idiot he even lowers the cloth on Ash as he was holding it while he fell. Too bad it seems that it didn’t hurt him that much.
He looks at the other human besides Ash, He seems to be happy. What the fuck. Does he like slipping and falling down face first on the floor? It looks like he’s filled with joy, but after looking at Ash it seems as if had lose everything in life. He’s just there not moving an inch as if he turned to stone.

“What’s with all the ruckus!!” a man voice coming from upstairs.
That voice is familiar.
Footsteps of the man can be heard as he sprints down the stairs. The man stops just a few inches behind Aqua. The man out of breath, wheezing behind her neck.
The audacity of this human to stop right behind me and annoy me with his breathing. I should teach this lowly being to respect a higher being like me. Oh wait, he probably can’t see me. Well might as well look at this human, so I can remember his face and punish him if he ever disrespects me once more.
Aqua looks at the man behind her. She looks at him and shock to see the man’s face. The man has short white hair and a beard, with a well-built body and a brown colored eye. Wearing a trench coat with a black scarf covering his neck.
I can’t believe it! This human I-I…. have no idea who he is. I really thought I know him, for his voice is a familiar one. Well if I do know him as one of the people I given buff to, while I was searching for the Otherworldly bastard. I could perhaps ask him to dispose this sad weak creature, but alas I don’t know him. For those people are grateful for the buffs I given to them and will return the favor to me tenfold. I think they are grateful; no, they should be.
The man looks at Gabriel and the other guy and see them as if their soul has left their body.
“Ash, how many times do I have to told you, that you should stop wearing skirts because others might mistake you for a girl.” Said by the man as he looks at Ash from top to bottom. “And how many times did I told you that wear your underwear whenever you work! STOP GOING COMMANDO!!!”
“But wearing a skirt and without an underwear feels refreshing from this hot weather especially in this month. So, can you let me do this just for this month”
“NO!”
“Pretty please” Ash said with puppy eyes
“NO MEANS NO!”
“I hate you! Francis!!” Ash said as he runs upstairs.
“I SAID STOP CALLING ME FRANCIS AND CALL ME DAD!!! AND WEAR A FREAKING CLOTH BEFORE RUNNING AROUND WITH YOUR LOWER PART EXPOSED! YOUR MAKING ALL THE MAN HERE QUESTION THEIR MASCULINITY!!!”
“Uh, guild master sir?” said by a man wearing the guild staff uniform, with glasses. A man with a short dark hair, a slim body and has a dark brown colored eye.
“Ah, Dick what is it?”
“Um, its Richard. Anyway, what will we do with these two guys that seems to be mentally damage after being exposed to um sir Ash uh... Dick”
“What do you mean Dick? What are trying to say about Ash with your name”
“I am talking about his male genital” Richard said.
Francis replied with a shrug
Richard let out a deep sigh and said “BIG PP, ASH’S BIG PP”
“Ah, that. Just splash them with cold water that will bring them back”
Richard went to a room.
What kind of drama did I just witness? Wait did they call him Francis?! That name and that same voice, but that human had such a frail body. This human has a sturdy muscular physique, it’s the complete opposite! I need to make sure if it’s really the same person I met in the past.
Aqua went closer to Francis and look at him intensely.
“Why do I feel like someone’s staring right directly at my soul?” Francis mumbles
Aha!! I saw it. It’s really is the same person; I can’t forget that huge ass mole on the side of his neck. Like of all the humans I saw while I was searching for the otherworldly bastard that huge ass mole is the one and only feature this human has. It’s so huge that I actually holding myself back to call him mole man instead of human. If only he didn’t hide it with a scarf, I would notice it immediately.
“Now, why do I feel like someone’s making fun of my mole? I thoroughly covered it with my scarf” Francis mumbles as he covers his neck where the mole is located with more cloth.
He was also called the guild master, to think the old frail mole man I meant human would achieve such a high standing. To think that instead of choosing the dying rat that I felt pity towards to, would help me tremendously in the future. I was really having a hard time to decide who to help, either the dying rat or this frail human that was also on the verge of death. Thank goodness it paid off, but I still feel bad for not choosing that street rat. Eh that’s all in the past now. This human will help me after all I chosen him instead of the rat. He should feel grateful to be chosen instead of that pitiful rat.
“Why oh why do I feel like someone belittling me?” Francis mutter
I will ask for his help in my plan to destroy the bastard! He will soon meet his end AHAHAHAHAHA!
Richard came back with two wooden buckets filled with water holding with both of his hands.
“Here, sir” Richard said as he hands one of the wooden buckets to Francis.
“You should do it alone; I think I am not feeling that well” Francis said as he heads upstairs.
“yes, sir”
After Francis went inside a room. Richard place both of the wooden bucket on the floor. He removes his glasses places it near a table, then reaches for his hair and pull it. “This motherfucker keeps ordering me and kept calling me dick even though I told him my proper name so many times to him. He doesn’t even raise my salary!!”
After a few minutes of Richard ranting.
“Calm down me, calm down. I can almost quit this job just few more months I can resign, because I have been saving my salaries for years now. Only a few more and it will last for the entirety of my life.” Richard said as he rubs both of his eyes with his thumb and index finger. He gets his glasses and put it on.
“Time to bring these two back to reality” Richard said then gets one of the wooden buckets and splash the water on the other guy.
The guy that were splash by cold water, came back to his senses and immediately leaves with the expression that as if his soul has fallen to the deepest and darkest part of the abyss.
“Alright one more left” Richard said as he holds the wooden bucket and look towards to Gabriel.

Ursus Ex Machina
Ozzy was a man of the wild. Raised in a remote village atop the world's mightiest mountain, he'd been taught to respect and revere the natural world. The realm he was born into had been there long before him, and it would remain there long after him. Sure, there was the occasional madman who threatened to destroy it, but such boasts were always empty. No one individual was actually capable of demolishing this beautiful blue-and-green ball Ozzy called home. No matter what terrible magics these villains wielded, they were incapable of causing permanent harm to the environment. Even if the planet was completely devastated, it would recover. Life would find a way to flourish, same as it always had. That was what Ozzy believed from the bottom of his heart, so he never once felt the need to save the world he loved. After all, it was never truly in danger. The world would be fine no matter what. The people were a wee bit endangered, but that was another story altogether. However, what would happen if Ozzy suddenly found himself devoid of his beloved wilds? What would the man do if the realm he knew - one of wonder, magic, and chaos - was replaced with a man-made environment of concrete, industry, and steam? Ozzy could never imagine such a thing happening, and yet that was his new reality. After losing a fateful confrontation with a mad wizard, he and his friends found themselves transported to a strange world so thoroughly alien that every waking moment feels like a fever dream. Separated and scattered to the four corners of this land, each of these adventurers will need to adapt, survive, and overcome if they hope to reunite. They would also need to do so quickly. The sooner they are able to find one another, the sooner they can figure out a way back home and have another crack at putting an end to the villain's plans. Whether such a thing was actually possible in a world with barely any magic in it was a valid concern, but Ozzy had more immediate things to worry about. For instance, why did the air smell like a perpetual forest fire? How did ships sail through the sky as if it were water? And most importantly, was the pavement he was hurtling towards at high speed much softer than it looked? Probably not, but a man could hope.
