Air Hero

Mighty Red

There are only a few people in the area that could see what happened just now. When Elrisa took down the protester, the speed is too fast for a normal D-rank hero to follow. Some exceptions occurred right now because there are a few people that are above the D-rank standard.

Giovanni, with his S-rank speed, could clearly see what is happening. Hyacinth and Max are also able to do the same since their sensitivity is higher than average. Other than that, nobody else could see anything.

When the protester was about to explode in a fury, Elrisa flicked her index finger downwards, and at that moment, a small bubble appeared above the man’s head and pressed his head to the ground. But, of course, when somebody saw a bubble, the first thing that crossed their minds is that it should be light and easily burst out when poked.

However, Elrisa’s signature moved seemed to defy all logic since the bubble that is created by her power is unique as it is durable and could even be heavy, as she has shown just now. The bubble that is pressing the man’s head to the ground didn’t burst like a regular bath bubble. This is why Elrisa’s signature move, ‘bath time’ is very famous.

When she unleashed her real power, she will summon hundreds of the bubbles, and whenever it comes upon contact with anything, it will immediately bring them down to the ground without giving a chance for anything to come near to her. It could also be brought together to form a bubble shield that will protect her from an enemy’s attack. Her popularity soared instantly when she appeared as a hero since this move looked playful yet powerful at the same time.

The man who protested couldn’t do anything since his head is pinned on the ground, and after that, other bubbles appeared and pinned his body firmly. Not long after, some people from the association came and brought the man away.

Overseeing everything that happening, Elrisa nodded as the man was brought away.

“Okay, since that’s been taken care of, let’s proceed with the events, or is there anyone else that wanted to protest again?”

Everyone immediately shakes their heads in denial as nobody wanted to be the second person that experienced the same thing that the protester goes through. After a brief moment of silence, Elrisa continues to speak.

“Alright, congratulations, everyone! All of you who succeed in gathering 10 points, you are all a hero already. After this, you will be an official hero. Don’t be happy yet, since this is just the beginning of your hero journey. As they said, with a hero license, comes your responsibilities as a hero. I will not be explaining the details since they will be explained later as you take your license. I hope that I will see you guys grow up and eventually become my fellow A-rank heroes or even S-rank. Okay, I won’t make the closing speech, long since there’s another person that will do this.”

As Elrisa said that, a large screen had been projected behind her. It was only a white screen at first, but then an image starts to shows up. It was a muscular middle-aged man with an expensive suit sitting on the table.

Every person that is looking at the image right now knows who is that person is. The current president of the United Heroes association and a former S-rank hero, Mighty Red. Everyone immediately fixated on the screen as the figure is such a legend. Even Max, who idolized Captain Green has respect for Mighty Red due to his contribution to humankind for going against the Evil Mastermind.

He is one of the earliest heroes that stands up for justice and reaches the S-rank. Most of the prisoners with the longest internment are caught by him personally. Even after his strengths weakens, he didn’t give up on fighting for justice and take up a position on the United Heroes association until he finally reached the position as the president.

“I am here as the United Heroes association president gladly welcomed all of you to the world of heroes. Firstly, I have to thank you for stepping up and grab the mantle to fight against injustice and serve the people. Being a hero isn’t always easy. As someone who has been in this field for years, I know it very well. However, I still can vividly remember, until this day, the looks of happiness and gratitude that the boy that I saved for the first time gave me. I hope you could cherish that kind of moment and remember why you’re called heroes.”

If someone else is saying that, many people could brush him off. However, when Mighty Red said that, everyone on the field could feel the passion for justice and the blazing heart of the legendary heroes still live on strongly until today.

“I know many people choose to become a hero for various reasons. I won’t reprimand you or stop you. I just want you to remember that there is something called responsibilities that come with the title of heroes. I also read the report that earlier, some of you rob others of their points which is not a hero-like attitude. I hope you as a hero could act like one and stay true to the United Heroes association’s principle. Fight for justice!”

All the newly appointed D-rank heroes who will get their hero license could feel the burning spirit and feel invigorated from the speech.

“Alright, I won’t hold you guys off for long. After this, you still have things to take care of, so I wish you luck and hope to see you someday up in the A or even S-rank. Become the beacon of light for the people. Mighty Red, signing out!”

Even after the screens are turned off, everyone is still engrossed in the speech they have just witnessed. Only after a while, the people returned to their senses.

“Did you believe that? That’s Mighty Red!”

“Amazing. I always see him on the TV when I was small. He has been inactive ever since, but his spirit never wades.”

“Did you even see at his body? His muscle is still there. I bet even if his power is weakened, he is still an A-rank hero.”

Just like when a child being star-struck after meeting their idols for the first time, many people are experiencing the same after seeing Mighty Red.
