Hello readers! Thank you for taking the time to check this book out. Before you get into reading this book, I believe that I should point out a few things about the MC (Nathan).First, I believe it's important for you to know that even though Nathan has aspirations of becoming a hero, it's not to the point where he becomes super optimistic and believes he can save everyone. He's more like the MC that does his best to do what he believes is right. He rarely cares what anyone thinks about him but he isn't necessarily a cold character either (though there will be instances in the story that makes him look cold). Throughout the story, Nathan will be confronted by different scenarios that result in him questioning if heroes are real or not. To put it simply, Nathan goes through A LOT. At some points in the story, he'll look like a hero, others he will look like an anti-hero, and other times a downright villain. It's up to you as the reader to determine whether or not

Pain echoed through Nathan's unconscious body. The lightning bolt seemed to have paralyzed him momentarily. He groaned unconscious, searching for a moment of relief as distant-like voices called out to him"Nate! Nate! Nathan! Wake up, please!!"Echoed a familiar voice. The voice was soothing and reminded Nathan of warm milk and cheese but it wasn't quite enough to wake him up."Damn it, let me do it!" Complained another familiar voice— this time that of a male's.The sound of a slap then quickly followed as Andrew's hand kissed Nathan's face immediately bringing him back to consciousness."Ouch, son of a... ugh!!!" Screamed Nathan as he grasped his cheek in pain."Nate! Thank goodness you're ok!"Exclaimed Sindy with relief as she hugged him tightly."Sindy, please... I need... air..!"Reluctantly, Sindy released Nathan to give him some space to breathe. She was happy he was alive but wished he was more appreciative of her

Nathan, Sindy, and Andrew were all patiently waiting for Alondo to return. His proposal from the previous night was the only thing that they could think about. They still knew so little about the Mind World, yet they were already being offered a seemingly complex job."So, what do you guys think about the captain's proposal..?" Asked Nathan."I don't know... I'm trying not to think about it too much. I'm sure he'll explain when he gets here," replied Sindy, playing with her dead smartphone."Man, our phones are the only thing we have to remind us of the Real World, huh?" Queried Andrew with a topic change."Sadly, they don't even work anymore. They malfunction as soon as we even try to turn them on..." Complained Nathan bitterly.A sudden knock then pierced the ears of the three friends interrupting their conversation."May I come in?" Asked a familiar voice from behind the door."Yeah, come on in," prompted Nathan.The door then

Sindy was almost unable to avert her eyes. She keenly watched as Nathan changed into his new AA uniform for the mission. Over the past month of intense training, Nathan had been working hard and the had results began to show on his body. He had abs developing on his stomach, his chest was much firmer, and his arms were just the perfect size. It was almost a miracle how much he had transformed over such a short period."What's wrong, princess? You seem lost all over Nate's body," teased Andrew to Sindy."Shut up Andrew..! I just spaced out a little...""I bet you're spacing out in more than one way in that head of yours... Hehe..."Sindy then picked up her bag and began to walk out of the room. She didn't know why, but recently she started becoming extremely frustrated whenever Andrew teased her about Nathan."Just mind your own business..."Sindy knew Andrew was just trying to look out for her in his own silly way but she did not need it. Inst

 Approximately one minute before Nathan arrived to fight the Beast King..."What's your name?" Asked Nathan to the little girl."M-my name is, Rosie...""Okay Rosie, my name is Nathan. I'm going to leave you right here in this small alleyway. It's not easy to find so you should be safe. Stay here and don't come out until I come back to get you, okay?""N-no! That's what my parents said and they didn't come back! Please, don't leave me too!!""I promise that I'll come back. I won't leave you nor allow anyone to hurt you. You've got my word! Heroes never break their promises."Nathan then smiled warmly before extending his pinkie towards Rosie, "Pinkie promise, okay?""Okay!" She smiled. "Pinkie promise!"Rosie was now feeling a sense of reassurance from Nathan's words. She believed that he would return to help her as he promised, "Where are you going?"Nathan's face then hardened as he answered;"I'm going to he
