I Never Wanted To Be a Hero

Chapter 6

A door was knocked down as Yujin kicked it away, trying to barge into his own house. But the rooms were completely empty. The only thing left was cobwebs and specks of dust.

"Aaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh‼"

Yujin fell to the ground as he suddenly got panic attacks once again, with repeating visions from his family and Reina's betrayal.

Miss Gorgeous tried to calm him down, "Chill out, I know how to find them."

With those simple words, the voices and the shaking of his visions started going away. After regaining his composure, he looked at his master as his tears fall.

"Awwww, look at my baby crying at me, don't worry, we'll find them. The first thing that you need to do is to ask your neighbors, then I'll do the next."

Hearing that from his master, he stood up at once and started knocking his neighbors' doors.

"Excuse me‼ Excuse me‼"

A man came out, "Who's knocking here, the sun just got up‼"

"I'm just here to ask you something."

"Shut up kid, get away from my property!"

"No, sir, just please hear me out, I just wan—"

Suddenly, the guy tried to punch Yujin in the face with his right arm. But in split second, Yujin immediately held the man's fist by using his left hand.

"What the?" said the man as he was surprised how fast and strong Yujin was that he managed to block his punch.

"Sir, do you kn—"

This time, the man tried to kick Yujin. Only for Yujin to push the attacking leg back to its standing position with his right hand.

The man couldn't say anything more due to embarrassment.

"Do you know what hap—"

Yujin stopped talking after the man just decided to close his door.

"I guess we have to change strategy, kid. But don't worry, I managed to read some memories that he remembered when you kept on pointing your house. Based on his memories, I saw both of your sister and your uncle carrying their things from time to time. And after some time, they stopped bringing objects out of the house. The last thing that this man saw, was Yumi and Kiba walking out of the house and never returned again." Miss Gorgeous explained.

"So? Please help me, I'm running out of options."

"Why don't you try that old lady over there. But this time, don't rush things."

Yujin approached the old woman on the other side of the street.

"Hello there, ma'am."

"Ooooohhh... what's a kid... doing here... at me' place...." the old woman said.

"If ever, do you know what happened to the people living in that house?"

"Tha... that house... was abandoned... a few... months ago. I heard... tha... that the kid living in... was... severely injured... that they had to pay a lot of bills... for him. They... couldn't pay... anymore... and started... selling... their... items. But... in the... end... I heard... they couldn't pa—", the old woman was trying her best to explain

"Hey, Yujin, we're wasting precious time, just get out of here and I'll just explain it to you." his master said.

"Oh, thanks, ma'am‼ You don't have to talk anymore, take care of yourself‼" Yujin said while running away.
