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 saidI 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.
“Ehhhhhhhh” what do you mean father, you have the wrong person little kids.The little girl looked at me and snuggled me more.Foxy are this your children, you never told me you had one.“What do you mean my children, I have no kids” foxy quickly replied “Then why do they look exactly like you?”She answered,“If they look like me, can't you feel their magic aura they emit is similar to ours mostly yours” “What's going on?” I had to ask, but the system replied instead.*Ding*[They were formed from the residual magic particles of you and the nine tail fox, when creating the new domain].“So that's what going on, but like I haven't even used up to a year in this world so how can I become a father quickly especially when I am still a virgin” I thought all this to myself and explained some to foxy.We walked round the domain, the scene was really beautiful, and reminded me of my mom's garden at home. It was fun but the kids that kept being clingy to me did not allow me to enjoy it to t
“Hey you” the sword mage hero called out“Am I found out already” I thought to myself.“Get me a bottle of your finest beer and serve everyone in here, I am in a good mood today” the hero said“Ok” the tavern owner replied as she poured brought a big jug of beer out and served everyone.“Hahaha, thank you first hero” the people in the tavern all saidOne of the oldest man in the group stood up and asked “I see that sir hero is in a good mood, will you kindly share us your heroic deed today”“Phew” I said to me, “it’s a good that I am not discovered”.Clara probably noticed my relieved look and giggled “Hehe”“What funny?” I had to ask“Nothing, just the expression on your face makes me laugh. You look frightened as if some kind of secret of yours got exposed”“N…Nothing” I said nervously“Don’t worry the hero is always like this, anytime he gets stronger faster than the remaining heroes or the something heroic like when he slayed a monster way above his capacity then he will come here
“Who are you?” she said in a surprised tone. “I was just a regular boy living an average life” I told her as looked straight into the deepest part of the forest with the wind blowing my head, men I totally look cool right now. “Hmm… what do you mean was?” Instead of answering her question, I deactivated the illusion and said “I am the tenth hero known as zero, nice to meet you” “You are the tenth hero, I knew it” she said. “Knew what?” I asked. “I knew that there is something special about you, my instincts are never wrong so you really are the tenth hero” “Yes and I am only telling you this because of what you did earlier” “Glad you are taking responsibilities” “Now that sounds cliché” I told her “Humph” she pouted “So how do we leave this forest” she asked “I have been here before, so let think about later” “Later! What do you mean later?” “Because I have something cool to show you” I told her then I opened the special domain, mist and fog appeared and spread everywhere
“Hmm…why did she faint?” Mia asked“I don’t know, maybe she was just surprised at how strong papa is? Silver said after.“You kids are funny, maybe she is just tired from the walking or possibly heat” I saidWe returned back to the little wooden house that I built like two months ago, So that foxy and the kids could have a roof over their head and not sleep outside.“What happened to her, why is she unconscious?” Foxy asked when she noticed that I carried Clara in.“We don’t know she literally just collapsed without a reason” I replied.*Cough, Cough!* “Where am I?” She asked“Mama, Papa! Look she is still alive” Mia said“Oh good you are not dead yet” Foxy told Clara.“Why would I be dead?” Clara asked“Don’t mind them, anyways why did you suddenly faint?”“WHY!!! You are really asking me why, you told me that your power level is 1000, that’s like …. Oh my god I don’t know what to say” Clara said.“She thinks that your power level is godly” Foxy explained to me“Why I believe that I a
*Ding*[Stat downloaded]“Ok I will see you guys later” I said“Where are you going, I mean we haven’t even used a day here and you are leaving already. Won’t you take a break?” Clara asked me.“I can’t rely on the level I am currently and besides I was on a journey so I have to continue but I will be back at night” I said.I opened the portal and left.Inside the domain (Clara POV)“Don’t bother yourself; he is always like that, one of the reasons why he is able to reach his current level” foxy said.“But at least he should take a break sometimes or learn to rely on others and I mean you guys” I said“Momma, Papa is gone again”“Yeah doesn’t he love us, or want to play with us” both Mia and Silver said.“He does but just a little busy, don’t worry he will be back at nighttime”Seeing how childish the children were behaving really made me happy and to remember when I was a little kid playing with my grandfather.After fox lady who Zero calls foxy and apparently the famous fox that said
*Ding*[You have earned the anti-hero title]I was puzzled by the information displayed in front of me. "Huh, weird, what did I do to gain this title?" I paused my movement a bit and asked.[The people of this world have viewed the host as a villain, yet your main purpose here is to be a hero. Calculating host behaviors since his arrival in this world, the system has decided to grant the host an anti-hero title]."That's great," I said, continuing to move across the forest. The sound of dead leaves being crunched by my feet could be heard since the forest is silent with only the insects' crawling sounds and birds chirping."So what's the effect of the title?" I asked, still not stopping my movement.[When fighting with a hero, stats increase, and when fighting with a villain, stats also increase by 2 times].[Error-cheat activated][Anti-hero> world ruler][Stats increases ten times][When the conditions are met, the host will be able to accept the mission to become the world's ruler].
I ran towards where the attack was coming from.I stopped as I arrived at my destination.The streets were in disorder, the citizens were running as fast as they could, and one of them even crashed into me. Without apologizing or checking what he bumped into, he stood up and ran away very fast.When I saw the demons up close, they were red with horns, and long black claws that are sharp as sword blades.The demons who were chasing after the demi-humans noticed that I was not cowering in fear and running like others."Kekekek" one of the demons gave an evil laugh thinking that I am a fool.I looked at him and yawned, and I said "I hope you guys are strong as they say" I said while pointing my finger at one of the demons.I said in a calm cold voice, "Burn" *Boom!* A black fireball busted from my finger like a volcano erupting, the force was so powerful that it seemed like a roaring dragon flying fast to eat its prey.Half of the demons in that line died, and houses, shops, carts, and
A college boy can be seen running along the roadside."No, no, no! I am late for school now, I shouldn't have played video games all night long".Suddenly to him, the world paused, everyone, animals, and plants got frozen with the time apart from the college boy whose name is 'zero'."What's happening? Why did everything pause?" he suddenly said after noticing the strange phenomenon.But unknown to him everything is not paused at all, everything is currently moving, but he is in a strange dimension.Suddenly, a strange glow circled him, a magic circle."Eh! What's happening to me, this is not really my day" he cried.(------------------------------)In a kingdom inside the castle lab, mages and knights can be seen. In the middle of the large lab, colorful bright light can be seen revealing different people with confused faces under a magic circle."Welcome heroes to our world, Hart," said an old man."Hmm… where are we? What do they mean by their world, Hart, and why are we in a stran
