Shiro: The Secret Hero
174. Victim

Currently, the Assault Team of one of the Black Organization Headquarters had finished with its mission. They managed to destroy all the Black Organizations that were inside their Base Camp.

A total of 20 new human-shaped Devils had been killed by their Team. But it is not without sacrifice. There were 2 heroes who died, 3 disabled people, more than 10 people were seriously injured, and the rest only had minor injuries.

This showed how intense their battle was. Even the Association Chief despite not getting injured, but his armor was worn out and cracked. The armor will no longer be usable.

In the battle with the Black Organization, they realized the strength of those Devils. Although the Devils had not been able to display their full strength, but they had already experienced difficulties even though they were superior in numbers.

Even in the final stages of the attack, they were all almost leveled to the ground due to the super-powerful attack of the Devils and destroyed the Cave where they fought.

Fortunately there are still heroes who still keep the Truff Card. His punch attack into space shattered the debris that was falling towards them into dust.

Thanks to that hero skill, all of them ended up spared from calamity. If they were buried by that final attack of the Devil, perhaps their casualties would be even more.

The Association Chairman was also only recently aware of how powerful Shiro was. From his current battle experience, he could not necessarily defeat the Devil without the slightest injury.

Although he could defeat enemies, it definitely took quite a bit of time and a disposable item. It was also certain that he would get some injuries when fighting one on one with the Devil.

The Chairman of the Association then sent a message to Shiro with the content being 'We Succeed!'.

The Association Chief did not disclose the details of their fight with the Devils. Shiropun did not seem to care much about it.

But the Association Chairman was still not vigilant. According to Shiro, there were 34 Black Organization members at Base Camp that they destroyed. But they only found 25 Black Organizations. Plus the 3 that Shiro killed, it meant that they had only managed to kill 28 of the 34 members of the Black Organization.

There were still 6 Black Organization members still roaming outside. They might as well be near their location, so the Association Chairman was still on high alert until the very end.

"Anastasya, Come!" call the Association Chairman.

Anastasya who was resting not far from there approached when he heard the call of the Association Chairman.

"What's the Chairman?" ask Anastasya.

The Association Chief did not immediately reply, he signaled to approach. Anastasya complied with the request of the Chairman of the Association.

The Chairman of the Association whispered something to Anastasya. He told her that there were still 6 Black Organization members still roaming outside.

The Chairman of the Association suspected that the six people were not far around them or even in the nearby City of S.

Therefore, the Association Chairman asked Anastasya to contact the relevant party in S City about the matter. He asked Anastasya to tell the Mayor of S City and the major powers in S City to search for the six suspects.

When they attacked the Black Organization Headquarters, they also found their List of members present in this Base Camp. So this makes it easier for them in the search for parties related to the Black Organization.

"Okay, Chief, I'll do it now!"

The Association Chief nodded, he saw Anastasya's departure. The reason he asked the City S side for help, was because they were too tired at the moment. If this matter was left on for too long, the six people would probably know of this matter which caused them to flee far away.

The chairman of the Association did not want this matter to just end here. If the six men are found, they can carry out the interrogation as Shiro did. Maybe those six people knew something they didn't.

"Everything, the break is over. Thank you for your hard struggle. For the fallen heroes, let's bury them properly, let's pay their last respects."

Hearing the words of the fallen hero, they all subconsciously looked towards the two corpses of the hero.

They become very emotional, angry, sad, upset mixed into one. Although they managed to win, but they were not happy in the least.

"Let's go back!"

The Association Chairman led the way back. Since they did not have any teleportation tools to City A, they could only walk back to City S and borrow the teleportation array that led to City A.

They all came to S City and shocked the surrounding citizens. The Chairman of the Association who usually rarely came out, now his clothes look tattered, even the surrounding community can see both bodies carried by the Chairman of the Association and Anastasya. This made them aware of the dangers facing the Team led by the Association Chairman.

Even the Mayor of S City was initially surprised by the arrival of the Association Chairman and the entourage. But after hearing Anastasya's call earlier, he finally knew the intent of the Association Chief's arrival to City S.

For his consideration and concern, the Mayor of S City did not charge the Association Chairman Team any fees in the use of Teleportation Arrangements.

The Mayor of S City was also very grateful for the help of the Chairman of the Association and Team. So that he helped give bonuses to every Hero who participated in the war.

Without them, perhaps the Black Organization would have been troublemaking in their City. So that the Mayor of S City was very grateful to them. He was not stingy with the treasure he had.

The heroes are also very grateful for the bonus they get. They returned to City A with mixed feelings. Before returning to their respective homes, they brought the two heroes who had fallen on the battlefield to be buried into the Tombs of the Heroes.

They and the families of the victims paid their final respects to the two who had sacrificed with their lives.

The death of their comrades serves as a reminder to all of them that their strength is still very weak, and their work has a very high risk of death. They have to keep working hard to increase their strength.

The atmosphere of the funeral becomes sad, plus the conditions of dusk are quite dark, adding to the atmosphere of sadness at the current funeral.

...****************...

On the other side.

Shiro continued to be looking at the atmosphere of the lake that was starting to darken.

He intended to bathe in this clear lake after his long journey.

While diving in the lake, his perception detected a large aura that was quite chaotic at the bottom of the lake.

Shiro recognized the Aura, because it was the Aura emitted by a Gate that was still blue.

He then swam and dived to the Gate Location under the lake. Shiro did not go straight into the Gate. This time, he just wanted to take a shower and rest.

The surroundings were already night, so Shiro decided to enter that Gate the next day.

Tonight he must rest to continue his work tomorrow.
