Chapitre 141: 141 Confession - Part 5
Fighter Anteriority was a competition held once every four years. Just like its name, it was a fighter competition, not only Hero and Ranker anyone could join the competition if they wanted to.
Even a hunter like Butcher Wang could join to win the lucrative money prize. The competition was divided into many different sections. An Amateur Anteriority, it was a competition for the amateur, limited only to Iron Class Hero and Bronze Class Ranker.
Those were the conditions for the Amateur division as most members of the martial house were a hero or a ranker and there were many other divisions as well.
Of course, there was the main event, where the top ranking of Gold Class Hero and the top ranking of Crown Class Ranker would clash. Even Emperor Hero and Legendary Ranker could join the competition as well.
Not only that but the heroes and the rankers from the other cities came as well. The heroes and rankers from the three major cities and four medium cities would gather to participate in the Fighter Anteriority.
It was the event that everyone was waiting for, where the top rankers and the top heroes clashed. And, even so, the Shadow Fang planned to disturb the Fighter Anteriority which was not wise at all.
After all, the heroes and the rankers were gathered in one place. Disrupting the Fighter Anteriority would be the same as offending both sides.
"What? They dare!?" Sun Zhou Yi was startled, but Heero's gaze landed on his other disciple. As an ex-member of Shadow Fang, Hirata should know one or two things about this.
However, to his surprise, Musashi Hirata shook his head and responded negatively, "I don't know they have a plan for the Fighter Anteriority… Wait…"
Hirata recalled the talk between him and Shadow Fang's leader before accepting a mission to kill Heero. At that time, Shadow Fang's leader told him about something big. But the leader did not tell him.
"We are going to do something big. After you complete this mission, I will fill in the details later! A stage for you to shine…"
It was what the Shadow Fang's leader told him before he went on the fateful mission. He just did not expect that something big was to disrupt the Fighter Anteriority. He narrated for Heero and Sun Zhou Yi to listen.
"Hmm, your ex-leader seemed to be confident in his plan. Your ex-leader must have something hidden in his sleeve. But I don't care, they kept bothering this place, I want to make these people disappear!"
Heero did not know what the Shadow Fang's plan was, but he was also confident that it was still in his capability to take the Shadow Fang down. Moreover, he shared it with Sun Zhou Yi intentionally, so the Hero League would be involved as well.
If the Hero League could take Shadow Fang down by themselves, it would reduce his worries without taking any action.
"You can bring the people in the dungeon to the Hero League, they will spill everything they want to know!"
As soon as he heard these, Sun Zhou Yi rose from his seat, "Yes, I will bring them now!" He intended to move now, but Heero held him.
"You can go after taking your medicine bath!"
"Master, we have to fill out a form to establish the martial house, have you decided on our martial house's name?" As the talk regarding the Shadow Fang was done, Hirata continued with something crucial about the martial house.
"Oh, our martial house is part of the Xing District, so shall we go for Xing Martial House?" Heero thought Xing Martial House should be okay as Hong Yu named her half-finished preschool Xing Preschool.
"Are you sure, Master? Xing Martial House is not bad, but are you sure to go with that? There's still time until tomorrow, you can think about it tonight and tell me tomorrow, how about that?" Hirata offered his idea.
"Hmm, good…" Heero nodded in agreement. With that, the meeting was over.
Heero back to the shop to help afterward. He thought today would end without something special, but when the night came, two special guests came to the shop.
If yesterday was the Fiery Archer Kang Seo-Yeon, tonight was the Ice Queen Bai Xin Yue. Bai Xin Yue did not come along as her little sister, Bai Shuang'er also tagged along with her. The two sisters' presence caught the customers' attention.
It seemed Bai Xin Yue's name was bigger than Kang Seo-Yeon's. He could see there were many people outside the window, they were looking at Bai Xin Yue. Not only that, but Bai Xin Yue also brought a pack of customers to Heero.
As soon as she entered the shop, the shop was immediately full and there was a long line behind them. The two sisters sat behind the bar, but instead of ordering, Bai Xin Yue and Bai Shuang'er came not to eat.
"Boss, can we have your time a little bit?" Bai Shuang'er said in her usual lively tone. Meanwhile, Bai Xin Yue scanned him, trying to find something from him that he did not know.
Heero was familiar with Bai Shuang'er as the girl often hanging out around Xiao Xi, but it was not the case for the cold elder sister. This was the first time they met face to face like this.
Heero did not immediately give his answer. He looked at the clock on the wall, it was still twenty past eight. It was still dinner time, "Is it important? If it's not that important, can you wait till the shop closes?"
Bai Shuang'er was stupefied, but then she scanned around her, the shop was fully packed with customers. She smiled and nodded understandingly, "Good, we will wait, then can you make us two regular noodles with a hover tail?"
"Okay, please wait~ It will be done in a jiffy~" Heero responded with a nod and headed back to the station. As Heero went back to the kitchen, Bai Shuang'er got closer to her sister and whispered, "You should not follow me here, because of you the shop is crowded with customers~"
From the start to the end, even until ordering the noodles, Bai Xin Yue did not say anything. However, her cold gaze never left Heero even for a moment.
Bai Shuang'er shook her head upon noticing her elder sister's cold gaze, "My pretty sister, if you are truly determined with your decision, you should at least soften your gaze a little…"
At these words, Bai Xin Yue looked at her sister, seeming to just realize her mistake. However, it was not that easy to do that, it was just too hard for her to put down her cold mask in front of many people.
And so, the noodles shop was fully packed even until ten. It seemed as long as Bai Xin Yue did not leave the shop, the shop would be full even until midnight. Heero had to forcefully close the shop.
Thirty past ten, only then the shop was empty, leaving only the two sisters of the Bai Family. Heero sat next to the window while on his opposite side were Bai Xin Yue and Bai Shuang'er.
"So, what do you want to talk about with me?" Heero asked, but his gaze was at the little sister, not Bai Xin Yue.
"Hehe…" Scratching her hair, Bai Shuang'er let out sweet laughter and continued, "It's not me, but it's my sister, she wants to talk something with you."
After saying that, Bai Shuang'er came closer to her sister and whispered, "Remember! Soften your cold gaze, it's only you two now!" Then, Bai Shuang'er ran to the kitchen. During her time in the Xing District, she was practically close to almost everyone, including Hong Yu and Han Ying.
She ran to the kitchen to help Hong Yu and Han Ying, leaving Heero and Bai Xin Yue alone.
'As expected…' thought Heero, even though today was the first time they met face to face like this, he had heard the tale of the Ice Queen from the Little Tigress.
'Heh, what if the little tigress sees me talking to her idol like this?' As Heero was amused at this thought.
Meanwhile, Bai Xin Yue was taking a blue envelope and pushing it toward Heero, without any words.
"Hm?! What's this, Miss?" Heero was confused as his eyes blinked at the envelope.
"Bai Xin Yue!" a soft voice flowed out of Bai Xin Yue's mouth.
"Pardon!?"
"Name's Bai Xin Yue!"
"Ah, I see, so Miss Bai…" having not finished his words, Bai Xin Yue cut him off.
"You can call me Xin Yue!" Her voice was soft and gentle, totally different from the afternoon.
"Good, Miss Xin Yue. So, what's this?" Heero shook the blue envelope in his hand.
"An invitation, you can open it!"
Heero nodded and opened the envelope, and found three sheets of paper inside. Out of politeness, he read all three sheets and thought he understood the girl's intention to meet him by only reading the first sheet.
Just like the girl said, it was an invitation for him, asking him to be Hero Instructor for the Hero League. The first sheet was about inviting him to join while the second and the third sheet was about the pay and privilege of a Hero Instructor.
If it was before, he without a shred of hesitation would accept the invitation. The payment was too attractive to be refused. However, with his current wealth, money was no longer his aim. He earns more than enough already.
Heero placed the paper back into the envelope and pushed it back to Bai Xin Yue, "I am sorry, but I have to refuse!"
"Why? Does the pay not enough? We can negotiate the pay!" Bai Xin Yue refused to give up.
"No, I don't lack money and I am already satisfied with what I have now."
Heero could pretend to be an ordinary person to refuse the invitation, but he did not do that. He did not plan to hide his identity as Sun Zhou Yi's Master. He assumed Bai Xin Yue had already found it out.
Here, he thought Bai Xin Yue would continue to persuade him, but she did not which was beyond his expectations. Bai Xin Yue took the envelope back, "Good, I understand. As you know, I am a Hero, and delivering the invitation is a task from the Hero League."
"Executive Bai Xian Ming asked me directly to deliver the invitation. The task is done, I will convey your words to Executive Bai Xian Ming later. But can I have your time a little longer?"
"Mnn!" Heero hummed with a nod while Bai Xin Yue turned her head toward the kitchen. There was a trace of hesitation on her face, but that hesitation only lasted for a moment before it disappeared.
"I want you to be my husband and I am willing to be your third wife, will you marry me?"
