Villain Retirement

Chapter 363: An Angel Enters theBattleField?

"Keep that hole open!"

"Uh… Okay?"

Paige didn't really know what to do as Hannah and the rest of the Baby Crew started to huddle up. Paragon only told her that some kind of battle was going on below, and to open a hole on the ship so that he could go down — he didn't really say anything about stopping anyone from going after him.

No — nothing really entered Paige's mind. She didn't even think of how Paragon would be able to sustain the ship while fighting in a war; after all, he is Riley Ross. The same guy who lifted the entirety of Toronto in the air and then proceeded to fight aliens that popped up out of nowhere.

"..." Paige then turned to look at the civilians on the ship, before shrugging her shoulders. Something like keeping all of them afloat is child's play to someone like Paragon. None… none of them would be dropping anytime soon… right?

"Monarch, Katrina. The two of you stay inside the ship."

As for the Baby Crew, they were still discussing their next course of action.

"...What? I want to go down there!"

"You're still not fully healed, Monarch," Hannah placed her palm on Gary's chest, gently pushing him away as he went towards the hole, "And besides, we need someone to guard the ship just in case any of those house of super fucks are hiding here."

"But the action is down there!" Gary groaned in frustration as he pointed at the hole, "You guys are going to need me there! It's a fucking war for mega's sake!"

"And you're still fucking wounded," Hannah shook her head and sighed.

"What about Bell!?"

"I'm 100% rested," Bella smirked as she flexed her lean biceps.

"F—"

"Gary, I need you here!"

And before Gary could say anything, Katrina's voice thundered throughout the entire ship.

"...You better go, G," Bella slightly winced as Katrina's scream pierced through her ears. Gary seemed to want to say something, but could really only sigh and shake his head as he rushed to help Katrina with whatever it is she needed.

"He'll… be fine," Silvie hesitantly whispered as she stood close to Hannah.

"...Yeah," Hannah sighed before looking at Paige, "Paige, can you make us look invisible once we jump?"

"Only if you don't move that much. It's like I did with Silvie when… she was naked earlier."contemporary romance

"...I still haven't thanked you about that," Silvie quickly cleared her throat as she heard Paige's words.

"Okay, that's more than enough," Hannah nodded as she stood in front of the hole, "Listen, the two of you. Paragon is already there, and so are some of our friends from the Academy. We're there to provide support."

"Hm."

"Got you."

"But most importantly… Gary is right," Hannah lowered her voice, "It's a war out there… we're going to have to kill people."

"..." Bella and Silvie quickly looked to the side as they heard Hannah's words.

"Silv… I need you to promise me that you're gonna be okay. No more of that brainwashing bullshit."

"I… It was just a momentary lapse. I promise I'm okay."

"Make sure," Hannah breathed out, "The only reason you're not staying on the ship is that we're going to need you down there."

"I'm gonna slap her as soon as her eyes go white," Bella scoffed.

"...You just want to slap me, don't you?"

"You still owe us, girl."

"Okay, let—"

"I want to go with you guys."

And before the three could nod to each other, Golden Fox suddenly approached them.

"...You're not Baby Crew, Chihiro."

"I… will be useful down there," Chihiro furrowed her eyebrows, causing her already small eyes to almost look like they were closed, "I can't forgive them for what they've done."

"You sure?"

"I am."

"...Alright," Hannah then let out a large breath as she straightened her back, "We will survive this for those that have fallen…

…Let's go kick some supermacist ass!"

And with that, the group all leaped into the hole.

"..."

Only for their feet to not even pass through it.

"...The fuck?" Hannah then stomped her foot several times, only for her to feel some kind of invisible wall stopping them from falling. And very slowly, everyone turned to look at Paige.

"O… Oh," Paige then stuttered; forcing a smile on her face as all eyes are on her, "It…

…It's uhm… the ship's defense system?"

***

"There's too many of them!"

"Relax, Danny boy!"

Mega Academy.

The most secure infrastructure in the world. The number of times it has been successfully infiltrated ever since its establishment — 1.

And after that, the Academy's entire security was overhauled to be even more secure than the tightest prison. Guarded even more than banks, and protected even more than any government buildings.

Add the fact that all the personnel and staff were now composed of supers that were handpicked by the person with the most time in the world — Bulwark. The only real way that one could infiltrate the Academy was through the front door with an army.

And right now, there was an army.

Bulwark was right in front of the Academy's gate — not even moving an inch as he covered the entire Mega Academy, which spanned even bigger than a city, with a golden translucent dome. While the guards and some of the teaching staff were on the frontlines… fending off soldiers from the House of Super.

"T… there's too many! We need to retreat inside!"

"Why did you even volunteer to fight if you're just going to be a little sissy boy!?"

And in that battlefield of smoke, fireworks, dust, and debris — a sort of dark thread glimmered in the air; creating a whistle every time it slashed whatever came it's way. Rocks? Metals? Anything, the thread obliterated and sliced.

This is the reason why Spectacular Mustache Man was and is so proud of his mustache — it was, perhaps, the strongest material on planet Earth… according to him.

"If you're going to continue to complain, then just guard Bulwark!" Spectacular Mustache Man's mustache moved like the blades of a helicopter as it staved off everything in front of him.

"He… he's an obvious target. It's more dangerous there!" A man wearing… a tuxedo on the battlefield stood close to Spectacular Mustache Man. And sadly for him, a flying blade was able to pass through SMM's mustache… going straight towards his neck.

But before the blade could reach him, his neck… suddenly stretched outward, completely letting the blade just almost slide between his skin.

"Then you should have just hidden with the students, Mr. Daniel Espinoza!" Spectacular Mustache Man clicked his tongue.

"I… I'm their teacher. I can't let them see me—" And before Daniel could finish his words, another blade was able to pass through Spectacular Mustache Man's defenses. This time, however, Daniel caught it with his hand… which immediately stretched backward.

And almost like a slingshot, he returned the blade towards the one that threw it… completely decapitating her.

"...Fuck," Daniel gulped.

"...Don't mind it, Danny boy," Spectacular Mustache Man sighed, "You're going to kill more today."

"Why… the fuck is this happening?" Daniel could only grit his teeth as he watched the scenery around him. Every time… every time that they thought they have achieved peace — something like this happens.

Were they just not allowed to live quietly?

"Danny boy!"

"Huh? Huh!?"

Daniel quickly looked towards Spectacular Mustache Man, only to see him rushing towards him… using his mustache like some sort of spider legs as he rammed his large body through him.

"W… why did you—"

And before Daniel could ask why he did so, a loud rumble whispered through his ears as a white silhouette suddenly pummeled to the ground where he previously stood, cracking it like a web.

"..." Daniel then focused his eyes on the glowing silhouette, and as soon as the light faded, he saw a long black hair flutter with the wind; its owner, kneeling on the ground.

"...Black Haired White Ninja?" Spectacular Mustache Man muttered as the silhouette slowly stood up.

"Paragon," the person then said as all the dust around him was blown away.

It wasn't only Daniel and Spectacular Mustache Man, but almost everyone that was near Paragon when he landed was staring at him. And soon, Paragon also stared back, looking at all the people on the battlefield one by one…

…until his eyes settled on Daniel.

"Are you from the House of Super?"

"...Why do I feel so offended right now?"

"We… We're from the Academy!" Spectacular Mustache Man quickly answered, "The ones that are wearing a red scarf on their necks are House of Super!"

"..." Paragon then slowly turned around, checking to see how many people were wearing a red scarf… and judging by all the red he sees — there were probably more than hundreds of them.

And very subtly, Spectacular Mustache Man noticed Paragon's shoulder slightly shaking — and he quickly knew it wasn't because of fear.

He… was trying his best not to laugh.

And very slowly, a blade of light emerged from Paragon's left hand. But unlike his previous swords, the light quickly stopped before it could even grow any longer. Its length, even shorter than that of a dagger as its hilt seemed to wrap around Paragon's fingers like a knuckle; its blade, curved.

"Paragon, it's you!"

A roar then came from one of the people wearing a red scarf.

"This… this is for Thousandblade!"

"..." Paragon then slowly turned his head towards the roar, only to see a man with his mouth… opened to the point it could fit a basketball. And then, with another roar, a sort of beam came out of the man's mouth.

The beam seemed hot at first, but no — it froze the ground that was in its path as it practically gushed through Paragon like a tidal wave.

The man continued to roar… only for his scream to be drowned by a quiet chuckle that whispered in the air. The man turned his almost bulging eyes in front of him, only to see a silhouette walking closer to him inside the beam.

And then, almost instantly, the silhouette was suddenly in front of him… grabbing his jaw and keeping his mouth open.

"Pft," a small chuckle could once again be heard from Paragon as he very slowly… placed the dagger inside the man's mouth.

"!!!"

The man couldn't even scream as his entire mouth melted… practically causing his throat to be welded shut. The man instantly kneeled to the ground, scratching his throat open as his entire face turned blue.

As for Paragon…

"..." He just looked at the man, not even kicking him away as he stared at the man's eyes… until their color faded away.

"I apologize, Paige. I lied…" Paragon then muttered as he finally moved his eyes away from the corpse,

"I said that this is going to be fast. But it would seem…" He then turned his eyes towards all the people that were near him and wearing a red scarf,

"...I am going to take my time after all."
