-Hero? Such a troublesome notion-

“This is Charlie, over. Bravo, how is your condition?

“Uhh this is Tom..”

I start to yell.

With a machined-like voice from the voice changer.

“IDIOT! I TOLD YOU YOUR DESIGNATED NAME IS BRAVO! YOU WANNA GO HOME AS A EUNUCH? HUH?”

He seems trying to complained a little, but returning to speak.

“This is t..Bravo, nothing here Charlie, over”

Good...

thinking like that i speak inside my heart.

While wearing some clothes like a black ops soldier with a mask, some people approached this place...

This place, stone sentinel canyon. Is the place of promised meeting with “him”

….

Sword saint Iskandar

Someone that even his being is doubtful whetever he exist or not

Debated as a fairytale or actual legend, his most famous tale is from being known as the one that fight the dragon king Argevalt and the only one able to pushed him back

Self proclaimed as the sword saint, his only distinguished feature is blazing red hair like a flame

Just by said that you got trained by him is already can made you become someone famous, though nowadays mostly only scammer or bandit use his name

The rumor said all of the s rank adventurer have meet him at least once before, however they all denied it

Though when asked to the said s rank adventurer what do they think about the sword saint, they all answered with the same answer

“He’s a pervert” mutters them

…

Now...

the guys in black ops cloth is approaching.

While bringing some “package” like a coffin, a total of four people.

Since i only have four of this costume i decide to bring the thugs here.

Of course, the thugs didn't know what is their purpose here.

Really, but this place only have a stone with weird arrangement. Obelisk perhaps? Its devoid of life and strange magnetism and white pattern is here and there...

It's not like an alien or something is gonna coming out right?

..not an alien but a pervert gonna show up. yeah, i better met an alien..

“Charlie, this is Bravo. Mind if i asked our mission again, over?”

“Permission granted. What do you want to ask Bravo?”

“Why is it that we here Charlie?”

“Ahh i didn't tell you huh. We’re gonna capture the sword saint and make him spill out everything that he knows. Failed to do that and at least bring him down together, over”

“Over, so catch that sword saint huh… wait.. SWORD SAINT!? THAT SWORD SAINT ISKANDAR?”

“Stop yelling Bravo, or should i silence you forever, over?”

Hearing that he was still panicked.

“Of.. OF COURSE I PANICKED! ANYONE WHO PURSUE THE PATH OF SWORD DEFINITELY KNOWS HIM! AND.. YOU SAID HE WAS HERE!?”

“Noisy, so what if he’s here? Our main job is to detaining the universe most dangerous rabid animal, or failed to do that exterminate it. That harmful animal is more danger than it’s worth and better be off disappear inside the course of history as a fairy tales for the good of all living being in the world”

“WHY SO MUCH HOSTILITY? HE WAS LIKE A HERO IN FAIRYTALES, ACTUALLY I IDOLIZED HIM TOO”

While sighing, i start wanting to destroy this useless brat delusion about those so called hero…

“Now listen here, Tom-kun. I’m being nice so i will tell you. The thing called a hero is a piece of walking disaster. Selfish, never listening to anybody. They always come out too late when the villains already destroyed everything because it would make them looks so good inside the people eye. They wanted to looked so good in people eye because they're a bunch of narcissistic pervert that feels so good when someone else is dependant to them like a drug. In other words, without anybody to admire them they're just a useless incompetent dickless bunch and lose their own reason to existing and would become a trouble for somebody else like a neet or hikikomori. Those dependable person in troubled time would become the most useless parasite in peaceful times. Because they only know how to fight, no company would ever need to hire them and they will spend their days lazily without any future prospect. Because they're so strong no police able to detained them and probably start to blame it’s society's fault instead of them. It seems like they’re going to become a villain but after saving people for so long they would become a bunch of dickless coward that not even dares to coming out from their room without anybody to expect them. And end up losing in front of the power of money and position and ends up waging their whole tail in front of those in higher position then ends their lives alone without anybody even cares or remembering them. See, that's the truth of what you called a hero”

Hearing that, Tom starts to yell

“WHATS WITH THAT DETAILED LIFEHOOD ABOUT THE HERO? ARE YOU PSYCHIC? SCARY! IT FEELS SO REAL THAT I DIDN'T DARE TO REFUTE. AND WHAT IS A COMPANY AND POLICE ANYWAY? STOP, DON'T RUIN MY IMAGES OF HEROES ANY FURTHER!”

Saying that...

Tom-kun started to crying.

Ignoring him i start to look around .

Then.

T heard a voice behind my back.

“How cruel, i never called myself a hero. It's everybody arounds me that calls me that”

“!”

Realizing he’s here, i point my ak-47 model gun to him.

Well it's just a fake model gun, but feeling is important, feelings!

“Also, i'm not a neet or hikikomori. I used to have a proper job in japan, ok? Though i haven't done them lately since i’m focusing on finishing that one game. What's it called? Precure?”

Speaking nonchalantly, he appeared from behind me.

The thug seems surprised and muttering “it’s the real one” and didn't move.

“Hiya, long time no see? Though we just meet one week ago you come exactly like you’re promised”

His appearance is like usual...

slovenly, wearing wodden sword on right side and white dojo outfit.

The only difference probably, his hair is disheveled like just waking up from sleeping.

“Even if i didn't come you would just nonchalantly kidnapped me like it's nothing right? Also by pretending to played a game for little kids, you're trying to catch them off guard but actually you're playing the adult unofficial uncensored version doujinshi game full of completely different things from the main story that they're basically another works and pretend to not realize that they're basically completely different series”

Hearing that, Iskandar whistles.

“You can read that much huh? I’m impressed. Is this your true ability? Or perhaps since you're being more prepared you can speak to me more nonchalantly without holding back?”

Then i only replied.

“If you read the common pattern of common eroge game protagonist it's nothing unusual. Also you're the type that told to everyone else that your favorite type is a older woman with big boobs, but actually you're secretly dating a loli younger than you with a excuse like she will be a adult in few years”

Hearing that he only smiled further.

“That's partially correct, though i am not dating anyone right now. Ah, also, a younger girl with modest average breast like in front of me is fine too actually. I have no unique preference or something like that”

Then i start to reply his smile with a smile back.

Neither of us is laughing inside, though both of us looked so happy in outside “khukhukhu” “huhuhu” while smiling to each other.

The thug group looked so confused saying things like “what happened?” “why did they get friendly all of sudden?” “strange, they're laughing but i don't feel glad at all” is what i heard

After laughing like that...

I use my sword hidden inside the grass, and launch a strongest attack i can use now while pouring everything i got.

“die”

Releasing a photon like straight beam it can even pierce the heavens.

*sfx*

*piiiiing*

Then...

He defends against the beam like it was nothing.
