Requiem Of A Failed Hero



Raith and Mok Jae-Hwa rushed to where the explosion and happened—the place was swamped, people had formed clusters around whatever was going on. But Raith and Jae-Hwa managed to push through and finally got in front.

And there the boy was, his black hair was floating and he was bathed in a purple aura mixed with lightning sparks that streaked across his whole body.

"Hero Raith"

"It is Hero Raith"

"Everything will be fine our hero is here"

"Please save him"

People began to mutter. The boy's mother finally fell at Raith's feet.

"Please, sir. Save my son. He had been complaining of being weak three days ago and all of a sudden his temperature started rising today, this happened, it was as if he exploded but when I came to check on him. He was like this." The woman explained with tears in her eyes.

Raith walked closer to the boy who was curling on the ground, the sparks that ran through his body were causing him to suffer.

Mok Jae-Hwa moved closer to Raith and whispered, "I think it's an awakening."

Raith narrowed his eyes, he didn't know how an awakening was supposed to happen but he very much knew what it was.

"The conditions fit a fresh awakening. They first begin to experience weakness and that is because of the vessel's exposure to magic energy and after magic energy has permeated the whole vessel, two things happen. An explosion that causes all the acute junctures in the vessels to burst open and is now able to transport magic energy throughout the system. But if the explosion does not happen, it either causes the person never to be able to awaken or it causes what we call 'the mage slumber' a sickness where the entire vessels will close up and the user will fall into a coma, all the people that have been in this state has never woken up." Mok Jae-Hwa explained.

"I see..." Raith carried the boy and walked out slowly, the crowd carved out a path for him as he walked forward, and were all touching his shoulder as he moved past them till he was gone.

After getting back to gjs apartment, Raith made Min-Ho check the boy and he was confirmed to be fine.

If this was truly an awakening then that means that there is a chance that all these people will begin to awaken as hunters. Before that happened Raith needed to do something.

Thus he called a meeting with the people who have sacrificed so much, including leaders from countries and tribes in Therut, selected by the people to represent them.

In the next hour, they were all seated in Raith's large parlor—a parlor that even he was just seeing for the first time and admiring.

The meeting participant included Mok Jae-Hwa, Agent Jong-Su in Mok Jun-Seo's stead, Min-Ho, Shin, Shin-Hye, Amber Rose, Draear, Prince Andres, Leif Ouderward, Corian, and Balam.

Raith's eyes scanned through all of them as they patiently waited for him to start.

He took a deep breath in and breathed out.

"I'm sure by now you all know what a hunter is. You know what this world is and how it works. And I also want to believe that you know that this country does not accept you all and is threatening to send you guys out by assaulting you all."

Corian stood up and bowed his head, "I want to sincerely thank you on behalf of all the people of Faleron, we will forever offer our all in service to you."

Draear frowned, 'This sly man! What, does he think he is the only one grateful' Draear shot up the next minute, despite his cold and handsome gaze he repeated the same thing, with a little over the top of his voice.

Raith looked at the top of them, 'Are they competing or something?'

It was evident that Draear was trying to beat Corian to it but Raith had no idea what it was that they were trying to beat each other to.

"Okay okay, you can have your seat and you don't need to stand up if you want to talk. Enough about what I did, I want us to put our heads together, think, and come up with a solution for you guys. If you guys want to go to other countries and mix up with them, it is very fine. I will arrange people that would enlighten you about these countries–

"But wouldn't there be discrimination?" Amber Rose cut in. Her eyes were fixated on Raith as she continued, "What do they call it again... Racism? I hear that humans hear discriminate against each other based on the color of their skin, if they do that to each other what about us who are not from their world."

"That one there is a good point. But in the end, you guys still have to move out. All these things will end up being Societal problems that will you help you become better people."

"Or we could build our own settlement." Prince Andres suggested, his eyes were gloomy, he had been struggling to live every day ever since his brother died at and with Therut. He was looking like a guy without purpose.

Raith looked over to him, not even recognizing a bit of him, he had forgotten that this was the same guy he met in the black market auction in Therut–well, Andres was wearing a mask.

ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm "That is a good idea actually... you guys can build for yourself whatever you want." Mok Jae-Hwa nodded to the idea.

"Where would they see land large enough to contain them, will these countries release them to us and if they find themselves close to one or two countries, do we know the dispute that it could cause? Aren't you trying to avoid being discriminated against?"

"Then they can just go somewhere so far that no country can reach." Shin nonchalantly suggested but immediately got a whispering rebuke from Shin-Hye.

"Shut up, I told you not to say anything."

He quickly decomposed himself and bowed his head, "I am sorry."

Everybody in the room was looking at him both with disgust and blankly, Mok Jae-Hwa was especially angry—Shin can be very insensitive and it was giving him a tough time bringing up a kid like him in the right way.

Raith rubbed his chin with his index finger, "No, Shin is correct. This could work."

"Huh? What are you saying now?" Mok Jae-Hwa asked.

All the others were focused on him too.

"I mean, it can work that way, Min-Ho told me when I first came here that this world has seven continents and one of them is not habitable because of its climatic condition." Raith started.

"Yes? That is Antarctica, but just as you heard. Surviving in Antarctica without proper protection is an incredibly dangerous and life-threatening situation due to the extreme cold temperatures."

"Then we just have to get rid of the cold temperatures don't we?"

A wide smile spread on Raith's face.
