[No Hero] 1-6: Stand Up Hero! (part 1)

 Dear Father,

You had once told me that when the master is wrong, discreetly reminding him of this is also a butler’s duty.

However, when even I cannot determine what is right or wrong, what should I do?

“Tell the situation to the young master, then let him choose his own answer.”

I found the answer in the notebooks you left behind. Thank you, my venerable father.

"In the end he wasn't a true hero……"

Even though I would not rely on heroes, I still considered heroes to be a wonderful existence. Everyone who had watched an old superhero movie would know that heroes would fall, but they would always stand up once more. This was the most captivating point about heroes: they would always stand up again and give the world hope from amidst despair.

However, Dark Sun had fallen--and left despair behind.

"Briar!"

Tencha appeared almost mad, constantly calling out for Briar. I think that that was probably the girl's name. If it weren't for the three bodyguards that had simultaneously grabbed him, perhaps he would have long since jumped down from the building to look for her.

"Captain, please don't be like this. Our brothers have already run down to look."

"Calm down!"

Although this was what a few bodyguards had yelled, their expressions were not the slightest bit calm, only filled with despair. Vale's eyes were even red, and he was only just slightly calmer than Tencha.

Clack!
