Chereads / SSS-Rank Hero retiring to Start his Villain Arc / Chapter 16 - Something New to Learn

Chapter 16 - Something New to Learn

Since, I have told you about the start of these three individuals' journey, what about their master and why did they start the war against the holy palace?

The master is not someone who I like to talk about.

But the reason for loyal dogs to wage war against the holy palace was due to the death of the close people.

In a hidden village where these three had their close ones, they were willing to protect them at all cost but the holy palace attacked the village somehow after they found out about them and the loyal dogs connection.

Although there men who were sent on the mission to take down the village were killed by the loyal dogs. It was too late everyone had died already.

Holy palace really have big worms inside them, they don't stay silent and seek peace. They put fingers in everyone's life. That's what you're thinking too.

Because of this reason all three went to war against them. The Holy palace sent their army against them.

But it was all useless because those three defeated them all. The Holy palace was in panic.

They should be since their army was defeated, no. Actually the army they sent to war only contained the weakest of the holy soldiers. They were panicking due to another reason.

It was because someone else was with loyal dogs, someone who was 50 times stronger than loyal dogs.

But the holy palace had this chance to tell everyone that they were being attacked by some evil demons.

They had attacked the village without anyone knowing. So many kingdoms believed them and aided them with their personal soldiers.

But they refused, because they already had someone better to deal with all 4 of them.

Me…

"Master, If we are gonna attack the holy palace why not attack now. Aren't we all three enough for them" Kathel said as she walked with Joseph and Jack. They were walking in a forest as there was a path created leading to somewhere.

Leon, who was walking in front, said. "remember one thing Kathel, don't try to underestimate holy palace, you might think you have great power but you who has never seen the enemy would never know how they play there game against us"

Joseph commented, "master, if we are not enough then does this mean we need to recruit more people?"

"Yes your right"

Getting more strong individuals will make things a bit easy.

I might be an SSS rank, but that doesn't mean I can take on holy palace by myself.

Even when I work for the holy palace, I never once fight back.

It was a common question that did come to mind, if I was a SSS ranker back then, I could have won since I had defeated many strong and powerful enemies.

Even when I had the memory reading ability and knowing the truth, I didn't take any action against them.

That's where things go against me, those people are always prepared for any outcome. They knew I might one day find the truth. So they used a god eye necklace on me.

It's a powerful item which can be used on someone and can control them. Doesn't matter if someone is powerful, if somehow someone makes the other wear it then he can control him.

I was tricked into wearing it at the start when I was becoming stronger. The holy king was able to control me and I was unable to go against their commands. I had the free will but it was less like a small particle of dust.

It reminded me of a mysterious man, who called himself a story teller. I met him once and he told me a saying.

'it doesn't matter how strong you are, even you can be tricked by someone'

Hardships don't only come on weaks but also on the strong ones too.

"Master, you haven't told us where we are going, we have been walking for a long time," Joseph asked.

"just a little further, we need to find someone first"

I'm really tired right now honestly, when is this br*t gonna stop walking does he not run out of stamina or something? Kathel said in her mind.

She had a very tired face, which Joseph also noticed but he could not do anything since he was not in charge here.

"Stop," Leon said.

Leon suddenly stopped, so did the others behind him. They were confused as to why Leon would stop all of a sudden.

Leon was staring at something with a serious look.

It was a cage wagon which was surrounded by many orc's.

Found it, my next recruit.

From behind Joseph and Kathel tried to look at what's in front that Leon is staring at.

"Orcs? What are they doing here?" Kathel said.

Around the cage wagon there were dead bodies of soldiers laying on the ground, while inside the cage many children were imprisoned.

Cleng… cleng…

The orcs were holding on to hammers, they were hitting on the cage metal.

Because of their strikes the human children inside the cage were getting scared as they clutched on to each other tightly and closed their eyes.

Tap… tap…

Leon moved further, his footsteps were heard by the orcs as they turned their heads around.

The orcs saw a boy holding a sword approaching them, they positioned themselves and were ready to strike him if he got any closer.

Leon had a serious expression as he came further, it didn't take him much time to reach closer.

One of the orcs wanted to strike first but another orc stopped him with his hand gesture.

It seems like the one who stopped him must have felt something.

A killing intent…

Not just normal but deadly killing intent.

"I would have never thought I do have to see such a scenario but It was good for me that I came here early"

Woosh…

Auah?!...

Leon vanished from the site of the orcs within a matter of second.

Cleng…

Orcs only heard the sound of swords clashing with the cage metal. They quickly turned around and saw the boy standing next to the cage.

The gate was cut in two halves. Thud… one part fell to the ground.

All of the orcs were surprised, as the door fell. Leon moved away from the cage and passed by one of the orcs.

The orc didn't mind Leon and walked towards the cage.

Kathel at some distance sounded worried, she shouted "those orcs!! Master they will eat those kids what the h*ll are you doing?!"

Leon only in his mind said.

That's something I don't care what these orcs do but I'm sure that there must be a good reason I'm letting these orcs do what they have to do.

Reaper jack puts his hand on the shoulder of worried Kathel and said, "just trust master, I believe that there must be a reason he's letting those orcs get to those children"

Joseph was also worried, since orcs were monsters who are known for killing and eating monsters and humans.

Leon was letting them kill those children.

Master, just what are you planning?

As one of the orcs reaches the gate, he removes the upper remaining gate and throws it away on the ground.

Thud…

All the children got frightened as they saw the giant monsters, they all hugged each other tightly.

Sob… sob… sob…

They closed their eyes in fear, knowing that they all were gonna be eaten soon and began to cry and tears fall down from their eyes. What could they do? They were weak and small and powerless against those giant monsters.

For a while nothing happened. They didn't feel anything.

One of the children opened his eyes, to check upon what was going on and to know if they were dead or not.

He sees a giant hand extended towards him. It was the hand of the orc, who had extended it towards him. The orc was giving the child a bright smile.

What was going on?

Tap… tap…

Leon stood next to his servants (the loyal dogs) as he turned around to see the scene.

"You all three must be wondering what's going on right?"

The three of them nod at Leon.

All four of them were looking at the orcs picking up the children from the cage and putting them down on the ground. The kids had a very odd expression.

They were confused as to why the monsters were not eating them.

"Sometimes we just misunderstand things, if a monster kills a human we will think all of them kill humans"

"It's similar to snakes, if snakes are venomous we will think all of them are venomous but we just need to know which one are not venomous who just look dangerous but aren't really"

"If you get what I'm saying, than just stick around with me you will understand yourself of what I'm trying to say and do not try to act on your own if I saw you than I will kill you without showing mercy"

These orcs, they are not normal orcs but a special type of orcs.

It would be a regretful choice if I kill them. Since I need to use everything to make my goals come true.

Even if I have to kill humans too or whoever. I'm just becoming evil myself in a good way.
