The Birth of a True Hero
episode 31 The team of the exterminator

We returned home on a car rented by Ririna's family. In the middle of the journey, we finally reached where I left my brother to fight against monsters. It came to my mind that I had not yet asked how it was that my brother was hurt.

" Ohh, isn't this where you fight monsters.? " I asked while looking towards that location.

" Ahh, yes it is, this is where we split up " Karin said to me.

" So how can you get hurt like that, instead of the ones you've been fighting, some Orcs and Black Wolves, but the injuries on your body are very different from the injuries caused by the creature " I asked with a confused expression.

" Yes, you're right, shortly after you left this place, I fought Monter - the monster without any problem "

" However, when the battle was about to be completed out of nowhere a Tiger-type Beastman arrived - suddenly attacked me from behind "

" I managed to avoid the fatal wound. I tried to ask his intent and purpose but he just said that I was blocking his plan and directly attacked me back"

" After fighting for quite a while, I managed to corner him "

" However everything changed when he turned into his savage form. When he attacked, I felt like I had avoided his attack but my body was already cut off by something I didn't see.

" When I was on the threshold of my consciousness, I saw a girl with beautiful pointed ears "

" But when I opened my eyes, I was already in the bed of Ririna's residence, I was really confused by the situation "That's my brother's description.

Hearing the story, it seemed like there was a Beastman planning to attack the monsters and unfortunately my brother met one of them. But I was also confused whether the girl with pointed ears was an Elf or a Beast and why she was helping the human girl they hated so much.

" Are there any Beastmen who joined the Demon clan, Because Frost Dragon told me that it was the Devils who hunted the monsters and planned to spread fear to the Humans "I thought to myself.

" Who helped my brother, there is no way that the Beastman or Elf who hates humans will save my brother ".

" Well, thank God you survived, I don't know what else I'd do if you got killed" I said with a smile.

" However, if brother were to lay his life in their hands, I swear to wipe out their race to the point that there is nothing left" I said with an angry expression.

But I calmed down again because Karin hit me on the head.

" Hadeeeeh, don't say anything terrible once Rui" Karin said.

" Ahahaha I'm sorry, but I'm serious, therefore, please don't do anything dangerous like yesterday" I said with a smile to my brother.

" Eheeem, so, what if it turns out that I'm the victim" Ririna said in our conversation.

" Of course , I'll cry over your departure"

" Ehhhh, just crying? what about my revenge ? " he said scowl.

" Hahahaha, Ririna, Rui was just joking, she was a shy person and could not be honest with her feelings, so understand "he said with a smile to Ririna.

" Yes, I've also been very familiar with the nature of this stubborn Tsundere, I just wanted to tease him a little "he said mocking me.

" Ap_what you say is stupid, I'm not Tsundere or whatever it is, never "

" Haaah, your attitude is so clear - tsundere Rui explained "Answer Karin who made them laugh to tears.

I became the laughingstock of the two of them on the way to the Academy.

By the time I reached the Academy, I was confused to see two Knight Wizards coming to the Academy. I think they were only assigned as Academy security guards about the monster that attacked 3 days ago. But the next morning we were gathered in the Academy Hall because there was an important notice.

Said one of the Wizard Knights with a serious look.

" 3 days ago the Duke had already received news of the Devils returning to attack "

" Therefore, we were tasked to form a special force of the best student body in the East and West Academies to become the upcoming Danger Extinguishing Team "

" We will recruit the best 5 people to be the leader of each Squad "

" You need to know that, every squad leader has authority equal to the Wizard Knight of the Empire "

Hearing that, they cheered happily and flocked to the selection to become the leader of the Special Forces. Each leader is also given the right to choose their own members.

But when I was with the candidates lined up in the middle of the Selection Arena, the 3rd year Professor came with an annoyed look on me.

" Rui Aubert, what do you think you're doing" said one of the Professors, standing over me.

" What, of course, is to enter the selection, not that we all have the same right to lead "

His face was red and looked very upset.

" Know your position, what you're looking for are gifted children and good leadership, students who can barely survive in this Academy like you don't deserve to apply, you're just gonna embarrass the Academy's name "Bentakj professor with his Arogan.

Just as I was about to reply to her words, a 6th year top student at the Academy and a DUKE's Blind approached me.

" Already Professor, sometimes children who do not know themselves must be taught a lesson to know their position, right "he said while standing looking at me with a look of disdain.

" Well if you say that, what if you compete with him as a selection test" said the Professor.

" Hahhh, are you joking professor, if I fight him, these Knights won't be able to see a single piece of my talent "

Then I approached Eizan.

" Oh, sure, why not, for this match, if you win I'll be

your slave "

The spectators who heard that, cheered me out because of my words. Eizan is indeed a student who has many fans and I am indeed a hated person in this Academy. If it wasn't for my brother, they would have made me Bullyan's material. But now their hatred is right - they show me.

" Well, I don't need you as a slave, even the quality of my slave is higher than you" Eizan said.

" But if I win, what if your brother is mine" Eizan said with a smile.

" What do you mean damn it, you consider my brother a gamble, your business is with me, don't bring it - bring my brother here "

" Make my brother yours?, don't joke stupid boy, even make your life a bet it'll never be comparable "

I got carried away with the emotion of hearing him humiliate my brother all I had in mind was how to make this person crumble to the brink of destruction.

" Well, both candidates please stand across, if the bell in my hand rings, then the match will start "Said the Professor who was the referee in this match.

When we were in position, the bells rang and the game started.

...the end...
