Chereads / Y-yeah I Am The Hero / Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: Welcome Hero 2

Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: Welcome Hero 2

The blue light started to shine brightly and out of that blue light a woman started to appear and float down beside Akuto. The woman was wearing a modest light blue dress that reaches her ankles. Even though the dress is modest, it didn't hide away the woman's assets. Her voluminous chest and voluptuous figure could even force a holy man to break their vow of chastity, just to indulge themselves with pleasure from the embrace of this blue-dressed woman.

Even though the woman's figure could bring destruction to a man's self-control, her looks would be the opposite. She had crescent-shaped eyebrows and languid eyelashes. Her eyes were rapture blue and if you look closely enough, you can see stars blinking in her pupils. Her hair was dark bluish and it flowed over her shoulders. Her lips were cherry red and her skin was glossy white.

Her looks could be described as angelic and it is not impossible for a religion to form around her if people saw her beauty. Unfortunately, this angelic beauty is looking at the unconscious Akuto furiously.

"So, you're the one who had been messing with my summoning, is it? Did you know what you've done?" (???)

The woman crossed her hands and puffed her cheek in anger. The woman looks cute, rather than scary.

"Did you know what I need to give to your god, just to have the chance to get a hero from your world? Did you know that my world is going to be destroyed because of you?" (???)

The woman's voice was getting louder and louder.

"….."(Akuto)

"Speechless are you? Is it because the sense of guilt started to seep into your black selfish heart?" (???)

"….." (Akuto)

" Just so you know, I have a punishment for you for giving me trouble. Hmph!" (???)

The woman turns her head to the right and closed her eyes as a sign of anger, but her acts make her look cute. The woman turns her head and stares at Akuto with a grin.

"The punishment for throwing my chosen hero outside the summoning circle, I decided to take you as his replacement. Muahahaha! " (???)

The woman started to hold her waist and laugh out loud like a villain. She looks cute though.

"….." (Akuto)

"And that is not because of me running out of time and unable to find another person, alright. Muahahaha!" (???)

"….." (Akuto)

"Your silence means fear. But fear is not enough to satisfy my anger. As another punishment that I did not just think a few seconds ago, I will torture you" (???)

The woman stares at Akuto with a devilish grin. Still cute though. The woman raises her hand and starts to poke Akuto's cheek playfully to express her frustration. Like a kid playing a prank on her sleeping friends.

"Take that, and that, and that… Why is your skin so soft?... Take that more"

"U-urm…"

Akuto starts to get uncomfortable from the poking.

"??!! HIEKKK!" (???)

The woman was surprised by Akuto's reactions. She starts to crouch and hide under Akuto's floating body.

"….." (Akuto)

There was silence for a minute and the woman started to stand up slowly beside Akuto.

"Pheww..! Just so you know, I am not afraid alright, I was just… checking the floor" (???)

The woman was relieved that Akuto is still unconscious.

"….." (Akuto)

"Ehem! Ehem!" (???)

The woman starts to pat her cheek softly, a few times.

"Get it together, your people need help right now. Alright, let's see who you truly are?" (???)

The woman places her right hand on Akuto's head and her left hand on his chest. The woman closed her eyes and blue light started to shine on her body.

"..." (Akuto)

"….." (???)

A few minutes passed and the woman started to open her eyes slowly. The woman turns her head slowly and looks at Akuto sadly. The woman's eyes started to water and she caressed Akuto's cheek with care.

"…What a sad man you are. Maybe… this is the universe's way of telling me… that taking you was the fated choice… You may not be the hero I wanted, but you may be the hero I need" (???)

The woman starts to smile and wipe her tears away.

"Now, I am going to give you a gift for your journey because today you are my fated hero, Akuto."

The woman started to cross her arms, close her eyes, and think deeply.

(What kind of gift is suitable for him right now? I can't just wake him up and ask him what gift he wants. It will defeat the purpose of making him unconscious in the first place. And it's not the time yet for me to talk with him face to face. I need to see his progress first) (???)

The woman starts to put both her hand on her head and start to think deeper. Small wrinkles started to form on her forehead from thinking deeply.

"Come on brain, work for me please…." (???)

The woman started to grit her teeth but eventually bow her head in defeat.

"Sigh… there are so many to choose from. Who am I kidding, the one who always has a solution is her"

The woman started to contemplate. The woman started to walk from left to right repeatedly while crossing her arm. She looks worried.

"Should I wake her up for just a moment?... No, she will scold me….It will just be a few minutes, she won't be mad right?... WHAT ARE YOU THINKING? Of course, she will be mad… But it's not for a selfish reason, it's for the safety of our world right?" (???)

The woman stops abruptly and starts to smile confidently.

"Yes, that's it. It's not for a selfish reason, it's for the world" (???)

The woman starts to punch her right fist into the air happily as if she just won the lottery. The woman stares at Akuto for a few seconds and nodded.

"She will understand" (???)

The woman starts to reach her right hand outwards towards the front with her palm facing up. It was as if she was trying to receive something when suddenly, a red light started to shine above her hand. A red orb started to materialize above her hand. The orb was the size of a bowling ball and it was shining with a reddish light.

The woman was looking at the orb when suddenly.

"….." (Red Orb)

"Ghhhh!" (???)

The woman starts to grit her teeth"

"….." (Red Orb)

"Ughhh!!" (???)

The woman's face starts to scrunch up. She takes a deep breath and-

"AHH!!! STOP NAGGING!!!" (???)

The woman screamed and started to close her ears with both hands.

"….." (Red Orb)

"Please hear me out okay? I know you're trying to res-" (???)

"….." (Red Orb)

"But-" (???)

Tears start to form in the woman's eyes.

"…..Okay…*sniff*... Alright…" (???)

The orb's brightness started to dim a bit.

"I'm sorry okay? I just need your help right now." (???)

"..." (Red Orb)

The woman started to wipe her tears. The woman pointed towards Akuto.

"See that, I have got the hero to save our world" (???)

"….." (Red Orb)

"Wha-? N-no, it's not that I got the wrong person" (???)

"….." (Red Orb)

"I don't give anything too valuable to get him, okay" (???)

"….." (Red Orb)

"He may not look like a hero but I assure you, he has the hero quality deep down in him"

"….." (Red Orb)

"Well, uhm… deep, deeep, deeeep down in him" (???)

The woman gives a thumb up confidently to the red orb.

"….." (Red Orb)

The red orb can sense the uncertainty from the woman's gesture.

"I can guide him, you don't have to worry." (???)

" ….." (Red Orb)

The orb sense a foreboding from the woman's confident words.

"I need your help right now. I want to give a gift to our hero and I don't know which one is suitable" (???)

The orb seems to be staring at Akuto.

"….." (Red Orb)

"What? Check his body first? Why?" (???)

"….." (Red Orb)

"Owh!,…Alright" (???)

The woman put both of her hands on Akuto's chest. The woman closes her eyes for a few seconds. A blue wave can be seen moving from the woman's palm toward all the parts of Akuto's body. The woman opens her eyes slowly. The woman looks surprised.

"His body is well built. I can see his effort in turning his body into a weapon. His blood is bizarre. He had developed an antibody that can negate the effect of certain poisons. His blood also slows down the lethal effect of certain poisons. But years of abuse on his body and occupational hazard are damaging his body slowly. The poison that was in his body is not completely gone and it is killing him slowly. He'll be dead in a few more years." (???)

The woman started to look at Akuto worriedly. She turns her head toward the red orb.

"He dying so soon is unacceptable. He would need a long time to fulfill his role. I now know what gifts to give him now." (???)

The woman looks back toward Akuto.

"As a hero, he needs to have a sturdy body that will not break in whatever circumstances and a body that can heal from any injury whether internally or externally. If he had these, he will be able to face his enemies through the years without worrying about the deteriorating conditions of his body in the long term." (???)

The woman nodded as if to confirm her decisions.

"Before I give him his gift, I need to prepare his body first. The world is full of kuasa and his body doesn't have the organ to utilize these kuasa " (???)

The woman close her eyes and a blue aura started to materialize around her. The aura then spread from her body toward her hand and towards Akuto's chest. The blue aura then spread from his chest to all parts of his body.

Akuto's body is having an effect by the blue aura. His body started to glow brightly blue. Akuto's body frame and height started to shrink slowly. In his brain, near the spine, a lump, as small as a marble started to form. It was not as fleshy as the other organ. It was solid like a bone and white in color.

"….." (Red Orb)

The woman almost lost her concentration. The woman look towards the red orb.

"What? But why?" (???)

The woman was confused by the orb's statement.

"..." (Red Orb)

"Uhm… okay?" (???)

The woman tilts her head in confusion and continues her preparation. After a few minutes, Akuto's body stopped glowing. The woman removes her hands from Akuto's chest tiringly.

"There, I did it. Phew…" (???)

The woman started to smile in relief. The woman looks towards Akuto. His pajama seems to not fit him. The pajama seems to be large for Akuto's body. He seems to lose some of the muscles he previously had. His face is still as androgynous as before but a bit immature. His figure is still as feminine as before. The woman caresses Akuto's cheek slowly.

"Aww, how beautiful… Sorry, Akuto. To prepare your body, I need to change your body back to your teen years and add the organ. This is because the organ can fully be strengthened and developed starting from your teen years. Now, for your gift" (???)

The woman raised her right hand and open up her palm. Green light started to appear above her palm. The woman then waves her right arm toward Akuto. The green light began to follow her hand motion and landed on Akuto's body. The light seems to be sinking into Akuto's body and was gone after a few seconds. A sigh of relief escaped from her mouth.

"It is done. Uhm?!" (???)

Akuto's body started to glow green for a few seconds. The woman checks Akuto's body and she smiles happily.

"It seems my gift has done its job perfectly. Your body is now completely healed"

The woman raised her right hand and caressed Akuto's scarred left eye. The woman turns her head toward the red orb.

"I've left his left eye alone as you wanted. What are you going to do?"

"….."

The woman's eyes were wide open.

"WHAT THE F*CK??!!"
