The Last Heroes: Warriors Against The Sinful

Chapter 1.53: A Well-deserved Setting

He stopped right by Haruki's face as he spotted Adrian with Leah.

"Adrian, Leah. What are you guys doing here?" Tedashii asked.

"What do you mean? We live here, remember?" Leah said while pointing towards the building behind them.

"Don't worry guys. I was giving Tedashii a tour around my home city."

Tedashii was confused. "Your belongings were sent from Miku while you were out cold. I recognized those goggles of my old friend, sadly...I heard the news. That's why I brought them with me to cheer you up."

"YOU COULD HAVE SAID THAT AT THE BEGINNING! YOU JUST TOOK OFF LIKE THAT!!" Tedashii yelled while pointing at him.

Haruki just laughed and then walked into the building.

"Are you coming with?" Adrian asked him.

...

"WE HAVE A HEADQUARTER!!"

Tedashii heard Franco celebrating while getting his hands on every corner of the building.

"I WANT A COUCH HERE, POSTERS THERE, A FLAT-SCREEN TV, A GYM CENTER HERE, AND AN AI COMPUTER THAT LOOKS LIKE A TABLE!"

He just kept ordering the HQ constructors on what he wanted and needed. Then he saw Tedashii at the door.

"Yo! Captain, glad to see you're okay!" He said.

Yuro, Ado, and Genti also came downstairs to see him.

"BOSS! YOU'RE OKAY!" Genti said as he tried to hug him. But Tedashii slid out the way, and Genti went right out the door. He then slammed it closed.

"What is going on here?!" Tedashii asked while Genti was slithering in from the bottom of the door.

"Well, I had an injunction with the president. And...as we all know, I didn't win alone. But the fact that we still retained Legon City meant that he still had to keep his promise, HA!" Franco said as he was waving his hand all around the building.

"Whoa, all this belongs to us?!"

"As good as you can believe it! This is The Elite's Headquarters—in the middle of Legon! Thanks to us, every Quarts and sub guild has its own in their desirable location."

Tedashii looked around and noticed how many HQ constructors were there. "Who are these guys?"

"These are Cassoule constructors who came to help us model the place. Ask, and you shall receive pretty much!"

Franco then took Tedashii to see the top floors.

"I asked to have an elevator AND stairs because NOBODY can hold one of them open when I need it!" Franco clenched his fists in anger.

"But...stairs don't have a door-"

"OURS DO!"

Tedashii was looking at the glass door. "How will anyone notice it if it's made of glass?!"

"Simple! It glows at night, and it reflects during the day."

They both got closer, and it was as identical to a mirror.

"As the captain, you take the top floor with Makoto and me. Leah, Ado, and Adrian take the middle floor. Yuro, Rin, and Genti take the bottom floor."

"Why did they take the bottom floor?" Tedashii asked. Now Franco stopped smiling.

"They are our three members with the stronger Beast Prowess. So, if any nearby danger comes our way, they're the first to pick it up. I didn't want a base as child play; I take being a hero... seriously."

Silence struck for a while until Franco smiled at him again.

"Listen, Tedashii. I understand you're the captain, so I'm willing to see our team excel better than the others. Thanks again for making me the Vice...it's better than nothing-"

"Hey guys! Come and quickly see this!"

They both were alerted by someone downstairs.

"Alright! See you down there, Tedashii!"

Franco sprinted for the stairs, but then...

GONG!!

He ran right into the door leading to the stairs. Then, a few seconds later, it reflected his unconscious face.

"Huh...guess it only reflects depending on how close you are. Hahaha!!" Tedashii said.
