Promise

Two days passed since the incident.

Hans' name was still printed everywhere with everyone in the forums and online doing nothing but discuss about him.

His righteous deeds as the association branch's leader had spread all over the country, catching the attention of many.

But more than anything else, he had finally earned the crucial element needed to become a good leader: the admiration of the citizens.

People hailed him as a warrior of justice, recounted his heroic deeds, how selfless he was to care so much for the citizens as he was even willing to put his life on the line to protect them from evil, and how he shone brightly among all the other shady and materialistic people, akin to a beacon of virtue.

But the truth was different from what everyone talked about; what had happened was really simple and straightforward.
