Shiro: The Secret Hero
9. I want Join to Hero's Academy

` tok tok tok `

Shiro is awakened by the sound of knocking on the door from the front yard of Shiro's house.

There was a bit of caution etched on Shiro's face, as Shiro was confused usually no one else came to his house at this hour.

Shiro walked to the front yard cautiously. Shiro unlocks and the door is opened by Shiro.

Shiro was surprised, the black-clothed man who appeared in front of Shiro.

` is this the real kidnapper `

Shiro was a bit wary of looking at the man's clothes. And want to go back inside the house. But suddenly the man spoke, "This is the monthly money the Mayor gave you, take it!"

` whuussshhhh

The man in black threw a bag of money at Shiro and disappeared. Shiro could only catch and take the money and sigh. Looks like the man is the mayor's subordinate, an assassin-type hero.

Looking at the money in his hand, Shiro smiled and said excitedly, "time for shopping "

Shiro used his money to buy cooking ingredients and other household necessities. For senjaya and other tools ? Forgetit.

Shiro exercises every day with increasing intensity. Although sometimes Shiro often felt cramps in his muscles, but Shiro continued his training.

Shiro rehearses with Uncle Jack and Joe Kee. But sometimes Uncle Jack can not come because he has to complete his heroic mission. So sometimes only Shiro and Joe Kee practice together.

1 month passed.

Shiro and Joe Kee are warming up this time. After that the two stood face to face with a seal of respect.

Both put their horses together. Shiro with both hands clenched in front of his chest and shoulders.

Joe Kee with one hand behind and the other hand shaving forward with the back of the hand facing Shiro. The style of Joe Kee's horses is similar to that of Bruce Lee.

Right now Shiro saw Joe Kee's hand move waving around as if to speak 'Forward Here!'. Shiro simply smiled and did not respond to Joe Kee's provocative moves.

"Huh.. As usual !"

Joe Kee sighed at Shiro's smile without moving a single bit, it seemed like his profession act had failed.

Joe Kee initially walks towards Shiro, but the longer his speed continues to increase. Joe Kee ran not in a straight line, but rather swervingly tried to confuse Shiro's mind.

` bang ~`

A blow from Joe Kee was successfully repelled by Shiro. The punch was aimed at Shiro's left head.

Joe Kee continues to attack with his hands and feet. And Shiro mostly dodged and brushed it off.

` plackk `

Shiro manages to catch Joe Kee's punch, before Joe Kee reacts to a back-to-back attack, Shiro pulls Joe Kee's wrist and hits him.

Joe Kee was hit in the stomach. Joe Kee took a few steps back while holding his stomach.

Seeing Joe Kee being hit and retreating, Shiro tried to use the attack to launch a combo.

Shiro pursues Joe Kee and launches an attack on him. Joe Kee managed to avoid it.

` Bukk~ Plakkk~ Bukk bukk~ plaque~`

The attack was carried out by both.

1 Hour passed, both of them were still fighting. Both breaths are stable. It seems like the end of the fight is still not visible.

While Uncle Jack sat watching the fight of the two excitedly while eating Curry Rice. Where did he get his Curry Rice.

"Oh Joe Kee's attack almost hit"

"Joe Kee's punches were very violent just now, but Shiro managed to dodge them"

"Joe Kee's deceptive attack seemed futile in front of Shiro"

"Because.. Good, Shiro, stay that way"

"Joe Kee, the spirit! Defeat Shiro"

Although Uncle Jack's exclamation was quite loud and could be heard by both. Yet Shiro and Joe Kee ignored him, the two of them continued to concentrate on the fight.

The day was getting dark, the reddish-orange color slowly began to fade. But the two are still fighting, but not as intelligent at the beginning. The clothes both look shabby, some grass and leaves are attached to the clothes of both, some blows and attacks are printed on some limbs both.

While Uncle Jack is currently cleaning between his teeth using a toothpick, beside him look 4 stack dishes used curry rice that when he eats.

` pok~ pok~ pok~`

Hearing the clapping sound, Shiro and Joe Kee took 2 steps back and gave a seal of respect, the match between the two was over. The sound of the clap came from Uncle Jack as a sign of the end of the match.

"Haha.. Very good young man, very good fight, it seems like the burden on your legs and hands should increase"

Hearing Uncle Jack's words, Shiro and Joe Kee nodded. They both carry loads on their hands and feet. But Joe Kee's burden seems heavier than Shiro's.

Even every 2-3 days, both of them always do sparring test the progress of taijutsu between the two, and it is done using weights.

"You two cool down and get some rest, we'll go home"

"Yes"

"Yes"

Uncle Jack throws both bottles of water at Shiro and Joe Kee and tells them to cool down. Both also obey.

"Uncle Uncle Jack, can you teach me to use Aura ?"

On the sidelines of the break, Shiro ventured to ask Uncle Jack. Shiro had long wanted to ask this, but never came to terms.

Hearing Shiro's question, Uncle Jack narrowed his grout and looked towards Shiro. Even Joe Kee became interested when he heard Shiro's question.

"Haha.. I can't use Aura"

Hearing Uncle Jack not being able to use Aura yet still being able to laugh proudly. Shiro and Joe Kee drop their chins. What is proud of it.

It seemed like Uncle Jack's rank was only in Class E Heroes because he could not use Aura.

"You're so uncle, you know the Hero academy ? When does registration begin ?"

Knowing that Uncle Jack could not teach Aura, there was no other option for Shiro other than to enter the Hero Academy.

"What's up with Shiro? Why are you asking me that, do you want to enter Hero Academy ?"

"Yes uncle, I want to learn to be a great Hero"

Hearing Uncle Jack's question, Shiro replied with an enthusiastic tone. Although his original intention was only to learn to use Aura. That great Hero business lately.

Shiro's reply left Uncle Jack and Joe Kee sobbing. The two hugged while crying, it seemed like the tears of both of them could flood this training ground.

"For his registration it seems to be about 2-3 months away, the issue of requirements is not very important. Relax Shiro, uncle will help you"

Uncle Jack gave his thumbs up with a smile. The white radiance that came out from his smile dazzled Shiro's eyes.

"Thank you uncle"

"Sama-sama, no need to hesitate"

"Oh yeah, which Hero academy do you dare to want ?" ask Uncle Jack.

"Eh, are there many Uncle?"

"Yes nak Shiro, Hero academy there are 1 each in town A to City G. Each Hero Academy has its own uniqueness, you can find the year first."

Shiro can only thank you for the help and information provided by Uncle Jack.

"It's getting dark, let's go home!"

"Yes"

"Yes"

They each went home.
