Prologue
I quit being a hero.
So why was this happening?
"You really quit being a hero? Come on. That's a lie, isn't it?"
"Why. Somebody giving you trouble? If that's it, you only have to say the word to this body! I'll stuff that son of a bitch in a drum and sink him in the ocean before you can blink."
"Don't tell me this is because I went way too far last time? Ah—no, that can't be it, right? That was all a joke anyway! You know how I get. Sometimes I just lose it when I get worked up. So please, I'm begging you, come back already. Yeah?"
Deathgun. Doctor Karamari. Blackjack... and every other villain who had tormented me all this time. For some reason they had stormed all the way into my house and were standing in the way of my retirement.
...You lot.
You do remember that I'm a hero, don't you?
