Shiro: The Secret Hero
43. Entrapment

"Hore !! We did it !"

Shiro, Denshu and Brendy embrace each other, they celebrate their success, a smile on their faces.

` clap~ clap~ clap~`

The sound of applause rang out, the voice coming from Shiryuu-senpai who had just entered the room.

"Congratulations! " said Shiryuu-senpai with a smile on her face.

"Shiryuu-senpai, we succeeded" Denshu said happily.

"Hoho, congratulations ! It is indeed fitting that you bear the name of a Hero in the future." praised Shiryuu-senpai to Shiro and the others.

"Hehe, that's for sure." Denshu.

"Senpai, you said there were skill scrolls here, but there seemed to be nothing. What about our gifts ? " Brendy asked while looking around.

Shiryuu-senpai did not answer Brendy's question, she just smiled.

Seeing Shiryuu-senpai's smile, Shiro instead felt that something was wrong. He felt a bad feeling.

The smile that Shiryuu-senpai threw was different from the smile she used to do. Amidst the dim light of the Cave, Shiryuu-senpai's smile was as frightening as a psychopath.

Shiro's premonition was right, Unseen suddenly warned Shiro, "Shiro danger, quickly run away, get away from here, this place is already besieged !"

Shiro was stunned, only this time he heard the uneasy warning of Unseen. He immediately checked his surroundings using his perception ability.

"Damn ! " cursed Shiro lightly.

From his perception, he felt many Auras slowly entering into the Cave. He sensed many Humanoid Beings entering the Cave very quickly.

The aura coming out of the Beings was quite large, and somewhat mingled with nature. It is difficult to estimate the magnitude of the power of these Beings. What is clear, they are strong and quite a lot.

"Shiro, Denshu, what are you doing ?" ask Brendy.

Brendy was confused at the expression of the two. He was also astonished to see his Battle Pet curled into a corner. He doesn't know what's going on right now.

Before Shiro could answer, he saw Denshu's frightened face. It seems he knows it too.

It was only natural for Denshu to know, since he was an Element type, he was more sensitive to Aura than the other types.

` bruk~` Denshu retreated and fell.

"Denshu, what's up ?" Brendy is shocked, he lifts Denshu up and tries to shake Denshu's body.

"I... I... That, there is a Being that has an incredible Aura is heading this way." Denshu pointed to the entrance of the room.

` roar~ roar~` Denshu Wind Wolf barking towards the outside.

Shiro also felt it, The aura was already very close to them.

"Ready to fight ! " the orders of Shiro.

"I don't know what's going on, but come on, I'm ready." Brendy's prepping.

They made a formation ready to fight. And Denshu retreated, trying to brave himself and join the fight.

"Kukuku, it looks like you guys have noticed it" Shiryuu-senpai said with a grin on her face.

"What is the meaning of all this Shiryuu-senpai ?" ask Shiro.

" Hoh, you guys still asking? not that you want a gift. They're your presents."

Shiryuu-senpai spread out her hands, and a humanoid figure Shadow appeared behind her.

The figure is getting closer and slowly the appearance of the figure is increasingly visible.

Shiro and the others were shocked. They did not expect to meet this race.

Long hair is white, pale bluish skin, sharp fangs and nails and pointed ears. There was no mistaking it, they had the Ice Elf Race.

Naturally Brendy and the others were shocked. Because in the Academy it was already told to them that inside the White Gate, the monsters that had great Auras were no longer there, only the croco monsters left behind for training.

Let alone an Ice Elf-class monster, which possessed considerable strength, it was impossible for the Hero Association to not know of it.

"How ? Amazing isn't it ? hahaha~" Shiryuu-senpai said with a laugh.

But his words were interrupted by one of the Ice Elves who walked near Shiryuu-senpai."Hey man, are they the medium of exchange this time?"

Shiryuu-senpai nodded.

Yet Shiro and the others were more astonished. Other races usually cannot use human language. That means, these Ice Elves have long since learned human language here.

"Hoh, quite interesting. It seems like the exchange this time was quite large. Especially that little boy over there, he had a good Aura." said one of the Ice Elves while pointing at Denshu.

Seeing this scene, Shiro knew what was happening. "Senpai, you guys seem to have deliberately set us up. And it seems like this is the secret of the Yuki Family, huh ? You sacrificed humans or rather Heroes in exchange for power."

"As I expected of you, Shiro. You're a smart kid. Kukuku~"

"Senpai, we won't tell anyone else, Please Let Us go!" denshu pleaded.

Shiryuu-senpai smiled, "An attractive offer, yet I'm not interested. Why release you guys ? I can gain more power if I sacrifice all of you here."

"Basic is not barbaric." curse Brendy.

Shiryuu-senpai sneered, "Didn't I tell you before. This world is ruled by the strong, the weak will only be oppressed and killed just like that. To survive in this harsh world, you just need to be strong, find a source of strength and keep getting stronger."

Shiryuu-senpai's statement was correct, they couldn't refute it.

" *#¥ $÷&¥ #&×&£ #*@" A mutter was heard from the other Ice Elves. It seemed that not all Ice Elves could use human Language.

"My men seem to be impatient. Have you finished talking?" said Ice Elf who was near Shiryuu-senpai.

"No more, I leave the rest to you" Shiryuu-senpai said.

The Ice Elf smiled and looked at Shiro and the others. "Do you have any last words?"

Yet Shiro and the others did not reply, they prepared to fight back.

"Well, if there's none. The kids...."

"Do"

The Yuki Family Industry.

Patriarch Office Space.

` tok~ tok~ tok~` Door knock sound.

"Come in"

A middle-aged man entered and immediately lowered his head and calmed down. "Patriark, I want to report ! my son Shiryuu has already begun to act on his mission."

"Oh, I don't think he dares to do it" the Patriarch of the Yuki Family said as he rubbed his beard.

"He told me this morning, and he's done some good preparation."

The patriarch nodded, "Good then, it is now our turn to act. I'm gonna have to get you to take care of the rest. You understand "

Old man Shiryuu nodded, he understood what his duty was. "Yes Patriarch, I understand. I'll do it "

"Remember ! Don't make any mistakes."

"Yes the Patriarch, I'll excuse you first."

The Patriarch gave a signal to let him go, Old Man Shiryuu nodded and walked out of the room.

Patriarch of the Yuki Family stood up, he walked towards the window of the room. He smiled widely and said, "Nothing can stop the Yuki Family's awakening. Yuki's family will never die."
