Hero Chapter 1: Meeting of Destiny

Hero Chapter 1: Meeting of Destiny (Ron Gamma)

It's been almost a week ever since Arthur wanted to take me in as his disciple... But... but, he's the number one hero in Sync! How can I teach him that he doesn't know? He's been following me around, and has taken a room next to mine... This day will be different, I quickly rush out in order to avoid him, but he was already standing in front of the door,

"Oh my god why are you still following me!"

He bows, "Please... I need to... This is exactly what I need."

I've been narrowly getting by in life after being fired, Nero and Claude sometimes send me money, I owe them so much... but they are on my side, how unfair it was for me... Ever since then I've been going around the Residential District, and attacking any thugs that were bothering people... Some are connected to those Superior Blood, while others are just local thugs. But Fighting them made me aware of my own Velle...

That girl, Faith was it? Gave me something incredible... I wasn't healing my own wounds or those who were hurt... I was controlling time. Reversing the injuries to either accelerate their healings in a body, or bring them back in time from when their wounds never existed. And while fighting these thugs, I've figured out that I can slow down time, only if for a fraction of a second.

Arthur walks towards me, "Please I can help—"

I walked ahead of him, but bumped into someone...

I looked up, "Oh sorry... Huh?"

Arthur rushed towards my side, "Master were you hurt... Wait huh?"

The both of us shouted, "Hunter?!"

The man in front of us, was the former hero of Sync, the hero of The 2nd Great Crisis of Solis City. Hunter Yeager!

"Haha, seems like it was inevitable for you to know me..."

Arthur bows, "Nice to formally meet you sir, as another number one hero... I feel quite overwhelmed."

"No need, out of all the heroes in Sync... You are indeed one of the heroes who does have a good heart."

Hunter then turns to me, "And you..."

"Uhhh, yes?"

He looks down at me, "You've met her have you?"

"Me? Who?"

Hunter turns around, "The mysterious girl... calling herself Faith."

"..!"

"Your reaction tells me so... You both follow me."

Hunter takes us into a pickup track, as he drives us to an apartment near the edge of the central plaza. This is...

Hunter walks up, "Yup, this is the [Hunter's Agency]..."

Apparently, after the second great crisis in Solis, he retired as a hero, and opened up his own agency. He is treated as a vigilante similar to those guilds, but this agency is more popular, plus I heard its members are also former members of Sync.

Hunter's been making a name for himself, even outperforming the heroes... One look between Arthur and Hunter is clear... Hunter is a hero for the people, not to bad mouth Arthur... but the current heroes in Sync only care for themselves, and will only pitch in to help the common good if it benefits them... Hunter has been helping anyone, no matter their status or need, and he has been flexible, charging less for the people who have trouble with money.

Walking in the receptionist welcomes us,

"Hunter! You're finally back, where the hell have you been?"

"Sorry, sorry Raven, I wanted to meet with these two."
