章 73: Chapter 73 - Personal Trainer
Zhu Kang silently walked back to his room. Beside him Aaron was walking equally silent.
He glanced up at him. He did not expect this superhero to escort him to his room. this guy barely had time to sleep.
Because of the destruction of the city, many buildings were damaged and they had to be restored. The hero academy took full charge of that. Plus a few thousand people were also brutally killed in that attack.
The public was anxious. They collectively started to rally against the heroes and villains.
"Are you okay now?" he whispered softly.
Aaron gave him a confused look. "I'm okay? Why do you ask?"
"I mean... the rally it must be stressful to deal with,"
Aaron sighed. "Yes it is. Even though we are risking our lives to protect them, in the end, we get blamed for a small slip-up. I know it was our fault that we didn't monitor snakeheads but.... it's too unfair. The world is unfair like that Kang,"
Kang also knew this. The world was fucking unfair, especially to him.
He dully glanced at the ground. He had to face so many dangers right after coming here. first, he was frightened so much by his brother and this stupid Altren. Next he was captured and brought to this hero academy net the fucking system tried to kill him!!!
The internal pressure and the external dangers were all matching up. He was in a very dangerous spot in his life.
If by any change is identity as the villain got exposed he will be killed by the hero academy to appease the angry mobs and if by accident he regained some past memories of dear zhu Kang that stupid system I'll blow his head up.
'Fuck my life. I should have stayed as a system. At least I could have been there bothering 101 all I want,'
Suddenly a warm hand gently captured his palm. Finger intertwined.
He glanced up at him in shock. 'Why is he holding my hand? It's not normal at all. We are close but not that close..... ehhhh'
Aaron smiled at him softly. "Rest your mind. I can see gears moving in your tiny head," he patted his head. "I'll take care of everything. I won't put any one of us at risk that includes you. The others might not believe you, might even accuse you, but remember I will always be by your side,"
Kang felt a slight pang in his heart. 'Trash.. I'm trash for lying to him.'
He knew for sure that if his identity got exposed, Aaron will take the full backlash. His life might not be tautened but he might lose his position, his wealth or even his prestige amount the heroes.
He tightened his hold on his hand. "Aaron, is there any way for me to leave this place? I know you said I can't... but.... I just don't like it here,"
Aaron frowned deeply. "I never should have brought you here... it's my mistake. I'm sorry I was impulsive," he gently caressed his cheeks. "Your name is already registered. If I take you out without your license you will be considered a fugitive and will be treated so."
Kang nodded. "When can I get my license?"
"in a few years… maybe a year.."
Kang sighed loudly.
Aaron grabbed his hand tightly. "I have an idea. Will you become my sidekick?"
"Huh?" Kang just gaped up at him. 'Sidekick? Like the hero's subordinate? Why! Oh shit, that's even worse than being in here.'
Aaron and his hero persona Zain were both famous. Being close to him will only mean that the public exposure was very high.
Even if he took a walk out with mister superhero Zain he will be on the front page.
'Won't that put me at the risk of exposing myself to the snakehead gang,'
He was stuck on all sides...
"You don't like it?" he hesitantly whispered.
"No it's not that but.. Don't you have Altren? I mean I heard heroes only have one sidekick and they stick around for a while and I don't know. I don't wish to continue my hero profession after leaving here. I want to get my license and live a peaceful life and...."
Aaron placed a finger on his lips. "I'm not asking you to do hero work with me. I'm asking you if... if you are willing to be my student,"
"Student? As in you'll teach me to be a hero? Do you even have time for that?" Aaron had black circles under his eyes. The poor man look like a fucking panda for god's sake. 'why is he willing to go that far for me….'
"I can make time,"' Aaron confidently said. "so... your answer?"
Kang took a second. Being in a class full of kids and being taught together was a slow process. if he had a special tutor like Aaron he can easily ace his hero, exam get his license and fly out of this place.
But there was a huge downside....
He had to be close to him at all times.
Till now he had been trying his best to stay away from the main characters and other important characters of this world so that he can live a peaceful life.
But the world did not let him be. It kept creating scenarios pushing Altren and Aaron towards him. It felt super weird and somewhat suspicious.
"One month, I'll make you pass the exam in a month,"
"Deal!" immediately he shouted.
One month was just thirty days. He can handle being with him.
'Yeah, I can definitely handle being close to him for that long. After that adios to this hero life and welcome to my normal super villain lifestyle.'
Aaron smiled beautifully.
Momentarily, Kang was stunned. 'Wait... thirty days.... can I handle it?'
He placed a hand on his chest. It was already beating miles per minute.
'I probably will get a heart attack and die before that.. my dear poor heart, stop pounding for this superhero. As I am a supervillain I kindly request you to do so. Thank you,'
Well, his heart never listened to his kind request..
Every gaze, every touch, it went crazy.
'I guess the heart wants what it wants... but you can't have this man you crazy stupid heart. Never ever!'
Author note- sorry guys had a very bad toothache. so had to take a break. now it's all good.
