MotivatedSloth

To be a hero is a curse, not a blessing. 

It's a simple truth Leon learned in the most painful of ways. He heroically slaughtered all the enemies of his president. Heroically purged those who opposed his master. And heroically brought doom to those who cried under the boot of the world's dictator. 

Leon saw the death of his family; a result of the events he set in motion himself. He saw his beloved city turn into ruins, scorched by the radioactive flames of the nuke he set off. 

His title was as cheap as his life. And in the only act of rebellion he could find, he heroically put an end to his life...

And the world he helped to destroy. 

'All of this happened... But why am I hearing a self-entitled voice calling me a failure?' Leon couldn't help but ponder. 'No, that's not it...' he quickly corrected himself. 

'How can I hear anything if I evaporated in the wake of the nuke I detonated myself?'

"Oh my, oh my, what an unexpected surprise," Leon exclaimed out loud while putting an overexaggerated smile on his face. He lowered his eyelids by a little bit before tuning his voice down. "And here I thought I would have to go on a rampage to catch your attention…"


The man who approached Leon was no one else but the man Leon encountered recently in the forest. The chaosmaker send to Vista Empire to sabotage the enlistment efforts and the man responsible for leading the recruits that Leon saved away to the forest. 


And, what was way more important than any of the political shenanigans, this man was Leon's ticket to reinforcing his position in this world. 


"I'm glad I found you before you were forced to go that far," the man said with a small smile. He turned his head around, scanning his surroundings with a quick glance. "Didn't you say you wanted to go to a general store?" he then suggested.
