Chapter 208: Hero’s party

Eman left the arena after leaving those words, leaving the dumbfounded audience behind. After defeating the captain, it was already decided that the Merciless clan won the battle.

The arena already turned back to normal. The bushy field was now back to the previous plain field.

On the other hand, the members of the Red Drake Clan are now lying on the ground, some were unconscious and some were groaning in pain along with their captain.

The news of the defeat of the Red Drake Clan against an F-rank clan was proliferated fast from one mouth to another.

On top of that, it was one person from the F-rank clan against 9 members and a captain from the Red Drake clan.

This was a total embarrassment for the whole Red Drake Clan.

It infuriated the other captains of the said Red Drake Clan.

.....

The captain who fought in the clan battle was now the subject of punishment along with his men. Also, they were in danger of getting ousted from the Red Drake clan.

On the contrary, even though he was present in the arena, Herro could not believe that Eman won the battle.

He wanted to help him fight, but he was skeptical as he wasn’t strong enough. And also, he felt betrayed by his brother. He doubted him. It was also the reason that he remained as a spectator.

Now, Herro felt ashamed when the others told him the reason why Eman did it. The reason Eman took over the leadership of the clan.

Because Eman believed Herro would rather choose to disband the clan instead of accepting the battle invitation. Herro was concerned about his friends and his safety. His mindset was telling him, -What’s the need of accepting the clan battle if their defeat was certain. They would only end up getting beaten up anyway-. He already believed that they would end up losing. So why make it difficult for them? Disbanding the clan was the most logical choice.

With this mindset, Eman fully understood him. That’s why he acted like a villain and a betrayer because it was better to act on his own than to discuss it with others. He believed that Herro would not believe him if he told him that he could beat them. After all, he only awakened recently. No normal people in this world would become strong as fast as him.

Still.

Eman wasn’t a hundred percent sure that his plan would succeed. Fortunately, he succeeded. Though he did not expect that Herro would remain as the spectator rather trying to help him. Maybe he was so shocked to have been betrayed by his best friend.

“Brother, please forgive me!”

Herro kowtowed in front of him while asking for forgiveness. He did not even offer to help him in the clan battle even though he was his sworn brother. Herro bit his lips in frustration for being a useless sworn brother. No. He had no right to call him his sworn brother again! Herro believed he just made a huge mistake in his whole life.

Eman smiled, then accepted his apology. He did not even need to do it. Eman made sure that Herro would not interfere in the clan battle by making him shocked by the betrayal. It would be hard for him if one or two Merciless members would come to join the clan battle. Honestly, he wasn’t sure if it would succeed. Fortunately, it did.

Regardless, it wasn’t important now. After defeating the members of the Red Drake Clan along with their captains, many high-ranking clan officials sent an invitation to him. Perhaps they wanted to invite him to join their clan. Though some wanted to duel him.

He refuses all of them. He had a feeling that he would end up becoming their training dummy. Also, he was the leader now of the Merciless clan.

When Eman tried to return the leadership to Herro. They shook their heads.

They said they have decided to let him be the new leader of the Merciless clan, to which everyone agreed. Eman then nodded. Looks like he had to take responsibility for his actions.

The following day, Eman visited Herro. He needed to undergo a seminar. In truth, he just came to ask some rules about the clan. As a leader, he needed to learn it. It was mandatory as a leader to learn the clan rules!

“What? I can recruit members from the female department?” Eman was surprised to hear it.

Around this time, the road in the main city was more lively. There were stalls all over and people were gathering at every corner of the streets.

Most of them were standing at the roadside while wearing curious expressions on their faces. Looking at them, it seemed as though they were excitedly waiting for something.

A moment later,

Tigidig! Tigidig!

Everyone stopped conversing and silence immediately descended in the street when they heard rapid, hard-stomping noises of horse hooves against the ground.

“They’re here! The hero’s party and allied army are here!” Shouted the man riding the horse.

A moment later, a long caravan entered the gate of the main city.

All the people around shouted their praises to the group of people who were riding the grand-looking carriage. However, it was weird that each of them was young people about the age of academy students.

“Long live the heroes!”

After one of the people around shouted it, it was followed by another shout.

“Long live!”

“Long live!”

“Long live!”

The chants repeated like an echo. A quite handsome young man with brush-up hair dyed blonde, who was standing in front, waved his hand towards the onlookers.

“H-handsome! Kiyaahhh!” Some young ladies who were currently watching the parade of returnee soldiers and heroes wailed in excitement.

“Hey, Reena, why don’t you wave your hand as well?” Asked the young man to the pretty girl beside him.

The girl had a nonchalant face. She had long light blue hair that was tied at the back. She had almond eyes and emerald-colored pupils. In short, she was pretty.

“Don’t bother me with useless things, Kyle,” she replied. The two of them were the leaders of the heroes’ party. Around them were some other youngsters like them.
