Wanted Hero

Three months ago…

My name is Frank, a holy knight for our great kingdom. I am currently on a mission sent by the king to look for more clues of what caused a whole forest to become barren.

We got to the town at the far border of the kingdom.

I got off from the horse and looked at the disgusting little town in front of me.

"Alright everyone, the adventurers should go around town and gets some clues pertaining the forest, while we go to the scene and see if we can find anything also" I said.

When I and the knights were preparing to move out, the town leader came to me with some guys at his back.

"Greetings great knights and greetings to you especially sir holy knight" he greeted us.

I kept quiet allowing my fellow knight to do the talking "What do you want old man?"

"I believe that because of the weakling hero that his majesty sent the holy knight to our town".

I raised my eyebrows and cleared my throat "What do you mean the weakling hero, was he here?"

The surrounding people were surprised at my question, as I could hear different voices about the useless and irrelevant so-called hero.

"The hero killed a group of adventurers that came to visit us in our town," the old man said.

"He did what!" I yelled. I got really furious when I heard what the old man told me that weakling hero did 

.

"Are you sure about this accusation that you charge against the useless hero, remember if you lied you will get beheaded for slandering a hero" I asked and warned the old man just to continue.

"Yes I am very sure and all the town folks can testify to this" the old man said pointing towards the crowd.

All the crowd people all agreed to what their town leader said

I  closed my eyes and thought to myself "The king must hear of this".

"All right that's enough" I told them and asked "Do any of you know anything about how a whole forest got burnt down also killing every living creatures in it?"

"Sir we only felt an immerse shockwave when that happened" A young man answered me.

"So none of you know anything that caused that level of accident" I asked wondering how dumb this people are, I mean how can a while forest get burnt down and none of you went to check it or find what caused it.

.

In the midst of the crowd, a young boy came out and answered my question shyly.

"Hm..hmm sir it was the hero sir"

"Do you intend on wasting our time here, what nonsense are you saying, the useless and trash hero did it!" one of my fellow knights yelled.

"Who is this young?

Yeah what rubbish is he saying?

He still a kid.

The hero!, this kid is a clown.

If that useless hero can do that, then I can defeat the demon lord myself.

What if what he said was the truth, I mean the hero defeated the vipers without any stress.

Yeah you are right, maybe he got his all of the sudden power from the demons."

A lot of people began to murmur amidst each other, I then stood up and told the knights to call back the adventurers that we have gathered enough clue so we heading back to the castle.

"Yes Sir" they all responded and left.

I turned to the crowd and the village leader to dismiss.

—--------------

We went back to the castle, the king was annoyed and angry knowing the useless hero caused all this.

"He is going to be a pain in our ass, how did he get that powerful to burn down a whole forest with everything in it and surrounding areas to the extent the flames haven't been extinguished, if we allow him to grow any stronger" the king said.

His majesty looked at me and said "Announce to the whole kingdoms that the tenth hero who is considered useless as joined the dark side and now working for the demon lord, no one is allowed to let the hero into the towns, villages or even other kingdom, anyone seen associated with him will be considered part of the demons alliances.

" The holy knights should chase after the hero no matter where he goes and be brought to justices" 

"Yes your majesty" I said as I bowed and left the castle to complete the task.

We searched everywhere for the hero, but we couldn't get a trace of him. Anytime we discover a trace of him, he is always gone before we arrive at the scene.

He hasn't visited any town or other kingdoms yet, it's as if he vanished or was living in the wilderness amidst the monsters or he truly sided with the demon lord.

A true disgrace to the history and title of the name 'Hero' and I vow that if I see him, I will show no mercy and kill him.

Meanwhile in the present…

"What's all this, why did my domain change? the nine tail fox asked

The scenery turned into a land full of beautiful grasses and different fruit trees, oceans could be seen with fishes swimming in it. 

It was a beautiful scenery, a scene that could only be seen on earth.

"Wow where are we , what are these fruits ? Some look familiar while others don't"

"Is this your domain or mine?" the nine tail fox  asked.

"I don't know foxy," I said.

We moved around, the whole domain is like a space or world on its own, it looks as if it does not have any ending at all.

I felt peace of heaven, that I haven't felt ever since I got to this shitty world.

Suddenly we heard footsteps behind our back, as two girls who looked like twins resembling foxy crashed into our arms.

"Father, mother" they said happily.

Ehhhhhhhh! Both I and Foxy looked at each other and screamed.
