Heero's retirement brought a wild wave to the public. Young and capable, everyone thought he would be the President of the Hero League at least for another thirty to forty years. But no one expected the man would retire at his peak.
It brought controversies as people tried to dig out as to why the man suddenly retired. But speculations were just speculations, empty logical words with no fact. No one could get the reason why the man decided to get off of his throne.
When Bai Shuang'er name came up as Heero's successor, it brought yet another controversy. Many people disagreed with the choice of the Hero League to choose a woman to succeed Heero.
Millions of people tried to make a petition, a petition to bring Heero back from his retirement. The people wanted Heero to continue to reign over the Hero League.
Bai Shuang'er was an unknown woman before. Even after her background was revealed, the protest not only reduced but increased.
