Chapter 22: A Search Team __________________________________
Waganma the son of Narinki has been kidnapped by the monsters and the Hero Association already made a move locating the whereabouts of him
Y/n: What's wrong with monsters these days? Going so low as to kidnap a kid...
Boros: Do you think they have something in plan?
Y/n: Most probably. The Monster Association has monsters that could wipe out a city easily and there should be more stronger monsters who we haven't yet seen.
Y/n and Boros was shopping for groceries as all the citizens recognised both of them
Random Old Man: Hey look! It's the heroes!
Random Lady: It's the Class S Rank 10 Boros and Class A Rank 2 Ashura!
Many of the citizens gathered around the two admiring them and even asking for autographs.
When they were finished giving the people autographs and shopping the Hero Association called both of them
Y/n: Yeah, what's it?
Sitch: Ashura we need your-
Y/n: If this is about the location of the child then I can't help.
Sitch: Bit with your help we could easily win against the Monster Association.
Y/n; You think there would be no drawbacks after destroying that huge rock? Right now I'm not in a good shape
Sitch: Then if it's okay, you can just help track down the child. We will have a team sent with you.
There was a long pause before Y/n sighed
Y/n: Fine, but there is someone I'd like to have on my team.
Sitch: And who's that?
Y/n: I already have him here by me. I'll cone to the Hero Association too see the others.
Sitch: Thank you for going our your way for us!
Y/n: I'm still a hero...
Y/n hangs up as he looked st Boros.
Y/n: What was that?
Boros: I've just ranked up to Rank 9
Y/n: Really? I haven't heard anything of your accomplishments in the Hero Association though...
Boros: I have been hunting some weird looking lifeforms with 3 heads that was the size of a city.
Y/n: A size of a city? Then why haven't I seen it?
Boros: It was by the mountains, but it proved to be weaker than I thought.
Y/n:...I can see that since it's you. Come on we are heading over to the Hero Association
Boros: What for?
Y/n: They asked us to help find the location of that kid
Boros: I'll pass. I would not stoop so low as to go and save a mere child.
Y/n: Well do you have anything better to do? This'll just kill the time. And perhaps there may be some monsters to kill of the boredom.
Boros: I doubt there would even be any worthy opponents, but if it means killing off time, then I don't mind.
Y/n: Good, but let's first drop off these groceries.
Timeskip
Y/n was in a room standing with Sitch and the Bespectacled Worker
Bespectacled Worker: I'm really impressed that you'd show up
Y/n: I'm impressed that you couldn't gather other of the heroes.
Bespectacled Worker: They have their hands full. Plus you're the only hero that can fully rely on that isn't busy at the moment. As you demonstrated your strength to us
Y/n: That's okay, so who are the others that will go with me?
Sitch: They should be arriving-
Suddenly the door opened as two hero walked inside.
Child Emperor: It's you again-
Y/n: What's a child doing here?
Child Emperor: I'm not a child! I'm... A hero!
Y/n:...You that desperate aren't you?
Child Emperor: Stop looking down on me! I'm really capable you know?
Y/n: (mind) Curb your confidence kid.
Sitch: And this here is Stinger. He is a really capable A Class hero. Since both of you are A Class heroes I hope you two can get along.

Stinger: Hey, so you're Ashura huh?
Stinger waved over to Y/n as he skinned his spear.
Y/n: So is that your weapon?
Stinger: Pretty cool right?
Y/n:...It looks decent, bit i think I'll stock to a sword.
Stinger: You have a sword?
Y/n: Yeah, but I rarely use it.
Stinger: Cool, you should show me sometime.
Y/n: Yeah, I definitely will...
Sitch: That is okay, but where is the other person you said you would also join you?
Y/n: He's running a bit late, bit we could get started without him.
Bespectacled Worker: Then Child Emperor will give you the coordinates.
Timeskip
Child Emperor: Don't you guys just get mad when they call you out when you busy?
Y/n: It's just a thing that is a regular now, so you found anything?
Child Emperor: It's not that good but I marked down the places where you should at lease get clues.
Sitch: So where should we start looking?
Child Emperor: I would ask you to split up to clear the areas much easier, but since it's an organization of monsters we should be really careful, considering that you aren't still in a good condition
Child Emperor slipped a glance at Y/n as Stinger noticed.
Stinger: You're still healing from a fight?
Y/n: Something like that?
Child Emperor pointed over to a certain area on the screen.
Child Emperor: You guys should check here out first.
Stinger: Roger that!
Stinger and Y/n walked out of the room. __________________________________
