Chereads / Teacher of Heroes / Chapter 7 - Consequences

Chapter 7 - Consequences

In the vast world of heroes, the hierarchy is an impressive fusion of heroic powers and state politics. Imagine presidents and world leaders not only leading nations, but also endowed with superhuman abilities comparable to the living legends of heroes. The President of the United States, the leader of Russia, and the Prime Minister of China are examples of leaders who transcend politics to become heroes of equal caliber.

In this dynamic, the Director of the Hero Academy stands out. He is more than just an educator; he is a living legend whose reputation is on par with world leaders. He is a figure that personifies authority and heroic excellence, an unquestionable symbol of power and a mentor to aspiring heroes.

The interaction between politics and heroism is fascinating, but also controversial. While political leaders seek diplomatic solutions, heroes spring into action when their extraordinary abilities are needed. However, this delicate balance can create tensions. For example, the clash between Akira and Yuna, the daughter of Thunder King, the monarch of Japan, could have drastic repercussions. The fact that a teacher from the Hero Academy is facing the daughter of a world leader could have serious political consequences.

This intersection between world leaders and superpowers creates a scenario of possibilities and dangers, where the lines between heroism and governance blur. And at the center of it all is the academy, a focal point where power, politics, and responsibility collide in a whirlwind of potential and challenges, shaping the destiny of this hero-political world.

The campus was bustling with activity during the break, a scene filled with energy and camaraderie among the students. Groups gathered in sunny corners, laying out blankets on the lawn, enjoying small picnics, or simply sharing relaxed moments. Some demonstrated their abilities by flying around the campus, laughing and talking loudly as they enjoyed the freedom of the skies.

The camera, in an agile movement, focused on a young man with dark hair with reddish highlights. It was Kai, sitting quietly at an outdoor table, enjoying his lunch. His eyes, although calm, reflected an uneasiness behind the serene appearance.

As he nibbled on his food, Kai couldn't help but let his thoughts wander towards the recent fight between Akira and Yuna. That extraordinary battle had left an indelible mark on the academy and on his own mind. It was as if a subtle tremor ran through the school corridors after that epic clash.

The murmurs and whispers among the students revealed the impact of the fight. Comments spread as the students talked among themselves, discussing theories and opinions about the confrontation between teacher and student.

Restless, Kai observed his surroundings, picking up fragmented conversations that floated through the air. "Did you see that electric discharge? Amazing!" or "What do you think this will cause? Yuna is the daughter of the Thunder King!"

As the voices and laughter echoed around him, a feeling of anticipation and curiosity hung in the air. The fight between Akira and Yuna had generated a constant buzz of discussions and reflections in the academy.

Kai, in turn, reflected on what that meant for him and the other students. The confrontation had revealed impressive potential and an unexpected weight in the school dynamics. It was as if a new energy had been injected into everyday life, awakening questions and aspirations in the hearts of the students.

Suddenly, as Kai savored his outdoor lunch, a shadow loomed beside him. He looked up and was surprised to see Yuna, one of the most reserved students in the academy, standing there.

"Can I join you?" Yuna asked, with a serious yet curious expression.

Kai blinked quickly, somewhat surprised by the invitation. "Of course! Please, have a seat." He slid over a bit to make room for the newcomer.

Yuna seemed focused on her own lunch, a salad filled with fresh vegetables and grains. It was clear that she followed a healthy diet, and Kai admired that without making any comments.

As he nibbled on his meal, Kai tried to make conversation, breaking the ice between them. "So, what do you think of the classes so far?"

Yuna looked up, and for the first time, Kai saw a glint of interest in her eyes. "They're challenging, but I'm adapting," she replied, straightforwardly, but with a friendly tone.

While Yuna savored her meal, her mind wandered. She was exhausted with all the repercussions surrounding the confrontation with Professor Akira. The recent days had been dominated by discussions about that fight, a hype fueled by rumors about the possible intervention of the Thunder King at the academy to confront the professor. "Try facing someone your own size," the rumors said, echoing in her ears like a heavy burden.

She remembered Mrs. Aoki's request, her loyal housekeeper, the only person who truly knew her. "Please, Ms. Nakamura, make the most of your time at the academy, make connections, and above all, find happiness." The memory of Mrs. Aoki's words echoed in her mind, creating a knot of anguish and loneliness.

Yuna longed for a break, a moment of peace and freedom. Today, she decided to leave her room and soak in some fresh air. When she encountered Kai, who had been the first boy to make a good impression on her at the academy, she saw an opportunity to escape a bit from the weight she carried.

As she sat down next to Kai, she tried to hide the fatigue that weighed on her shoulders. Her eyes, normally so firm and determined, revealed a mixture of exhaustion and a desire for a moment of tranquility.

Kai noticed Yuna's tired expression. He, who admired her strength and the aura of mystery that surrounded her, sensed the emotional burden she carried at that moment.

"Are you okay?" he asked, with a tone of genuine concern. "You seem a bit tired."

Yuna hesitated for a moment, but then sighed, allowing herself to open up a bit to the boy who intrigued her. "I'm just a little overwhelmed with all the recent commotion. It's hard to deal with sometimes."

Kai responded with a friendly smile. "I understand. Sometimes, the academy can be a whirlwind of things, but we can always find a moment of calm."

Kai leaned in a bit, his curious eyes seeking Yuna's, which seemed lost in distant thoughts. "What do you think of our teacher? From what I've researched, there's no record of him. Specifically, someone of his stature should have at least one record, right?"

Yuna looked up, analyzing him for a moment before responding. "Akira is... peculiar. He has a mysterious aura. It's as if he's off the records, you know? He doesn't quite fit into what we usually come across out there."

Kai nodded, his thoughts intertwining. "Interesting. I wonder what led him to be so... discreet."

"That's something everyone seems to be wondering about," said Yuna, with a hint of uncertainty in her voice.

Kai looked at Yuna with interest. "Anyway, what do you plan to do after lunch? Since today is Sunday, we don't have classes."

Yuna briefly pondered, looking out across the lawn. "I'm going to train," she said, with unwavering serenity.

Kai's eyes lit up. "Can I train with you?" His excitement was evident.

Yuna paused for a moment, seeming to consider the proposal. "Yes," she finally agreed, her voice conveying a mix of seriousness and determination, "training with training dummies isn't helping me evolve."

Kai could hardly contain his happiness when he saw that Yuna had accepted his invitation to train together. Extending his hand forward, he proposed a simple gesture, but one loaded with meaning: the fist bump, a silent agreement of cooperation and trust. Smiling, he said, "I'm counting on you, Yuna!"

A glint of surprise and curiosity passed through Yuna's eyes as she saw Kai's excitement. She hadn't expected this gesture, but something inside her impelled her to accept.

With the smile still on Kai's face, Yuna closed her fist and bumped it against Kai's. The simple gesture was full of meaning, as if at that moment they had agreed not only on a training session, but on a union of efforts and mutual support.

The world seemed to have quieted down for a brief moment as their fists touched. It was a small scene, but it held great significance for both of them. In that simple gesture, a connection was established, a silent pact that became the starting point for a friendship that would transcend the walls of the academy.

Thus, an apparently ordinary moment became unforgettable for both, a starting point for a friendship that would accompany them in their journeys and challenges, nourishing itself from the unity, trust, and mutual support that formed in that moment. It was the beginning of something special, something that would unite them beyond the classes and training of the Shinsei Academy.

The room exuded a luxurious aura, a refuge of calm and elegance. A woman of striking presence, Scarlet, gazed at the man in front of her with a shrewd look. "You've caused quite a stir, Akira."

Akira, visibly exhausted, sighed, his shoulders seeming to bear the weight of recent circumstances. "Can we not talk about this, Scarlet? The director already gave me an epic scolding. My ears are still ringing from his shouting."

A soft laugh escaped from Scarlet's lips. "But what got into your head to want to confront a student? Even if she asked, you should have refused."

Scratching his head, Akira acknowledged the foolishness. "I know, but at that moment, I wanted to test her limits, understand her potential. Yuna is incredibly strong, to the point of one day surpassing me. But not just her, I realized that several other students are also becoming exceptional."

The atmosphere seemed tense, laden with an indescribable weight. Akira pondered his actions as Scarlet watched him closely, as if seeking to understand beyond the words.

"Do you not think you went too far?" questioned Scarlet, her voice filled with concern.

Akira, with a mixed expression of regret and determination, met Scarlet's eyes. "Sometimes, the only way to understand true potential is to test the limits. But I've learned one thing: there's a fine line between challenging and surpassing someone's limits. And I crossed that line."

Akira's gaze reflected a mix of concern and resolution, as if he were trying to understand the recent events and find a way forward.

Despite her firm posture, Scarlet showed a trace of compassion in her gaze. "Perhaps it's time to rethink your approaches. It's not wise to ignore one's own limits while teaching others about theirs."

A pause filled the room, as if the weight of the words was still settling between them. Akira and Scarlet shared a silent look, a mutual understanding hanging in the air, as the meaning of the words echoed between them, sowing the possibility of change and reflection.
