The magic circle drawn on the floor shone brightly to every corner of the room, following that is its slowly dispersion back to its stagnant spotlaying over the already dissipated magic circle is a fifteen year old with his eyes closed and putting on an high school uniform, a white inner t-shirt and blue blazer, a long tie with a blue trousers and a casual haircut."it.. it is done""not yet, this is not the time for us to jubilate, we still have to check if he possess the mark of a Hero, you go and check him and see if he does have the mark"One of the female guards guarding the saintess moved towards the boy laying on the groundshe began conducting a body search on the unconscious boy, unclothed his upper body and almost went further to uncloth the lower part when she noticed a sort of complicating symbol with rough edges on the boy's palm"he.. he has the mark!!""we did it" "I thought it would never happen, I thought I would never witness the birth of a hero during my time jus
This woman does not look like she is telling a lie, her face and expression all hints to her telling the truth and I can also feel the desperation in her words"why me, I have no redeeming features that points to me as a hero nor do I have a sad part that made me develop some kind of hatred towards evil, I am an a average boy with a father, mother and two elder siblings waiting for me at home, I also do not have the desire to save anyone from danger infact when I see people getting bullied in school I totally ignore them to avoid the same fate befalling me so why did you pick someone like me""hero you shouldn't belittle yourself in such a way""no that is the truth, you know I don't believe in fairy tales or demons and monsters, to me I consider them all as just fantasy they are not real and they can never be real I mean theoretically speaking how is it possible for a normal human high schooler to get summoned to another world to defeat something that has probably made fighting it pu
"now that you have decided to follow your destiny it is time I explain to you what the logic of this world is""logic of the world""yes, we have summoned a lot of humans like you back when we were trying to summon a Hero, from what we have gathered from them thus far we realized that the world they come from is entirely different from this world, we made it our responsibility to enlighten them about this world before releasing them into it, normally this is a task that should be done by an instructor but considering that you are someone who will be representing us humans I will personally see to your enlightment of this world""ah!! I should be grateful a beautiful person like you is taking her time with me""no hero, I am the one that is rather honored to have you in my presence now let's get on to the topic, I want you to listen carefully and if there is anything you don't understand be sure to ask me alright""yes ma'am""long long ago this world was divided into six great contine
My name is Raynold and it seems I have been isekai'edhow you ask?well it was just like any normal day for meI woke up in the morning took my bath and wore my uniform, in a hurry to avoid being late I munched on my breakfast as fast as I could before going to the bus-station, from there I took a bus to school where I spent the usual hectic and life choking activitiesthe bell that signified the closing hours rang and the students flocked out like birds trapped in a cage that suddenly gets free, I was no different as I was one of the first to leave the school groundsi went to the bus-station and took the bus back to my stop, I got home and I was met with an empty house, my parents were hard working citizens who belonged in the middle class and my siblings were already graduates who had moved out to work in flourishing cities and so it was just me, my mom and my dad living togetherI ate the lunch my mom had set down on the table before leaving for work, after I was done with lunch I
"wait comrades? what are you talking about, what do I need comrades for when I have got a whole army backing me or do not tell me that your kingdom does not have any army at hand""I already told you earlier that I would call the greatest of warriors in the land to the holy capital for you to choose whichever one you wish to work with""that is what I am asking, why is there a need for me to do that when you can just summon your army and all I will have to do is lead them""hero it seems you are really too naive""what""being a hero is not only about leading, you have to show example and be a role model""regardless of what your title is you are still a human who has been summoned to a strange land, you have no experience in combat and you are still yet to grasp the understanding of energy so how do you expect to go against the evil in your current form""then what should I do, what am I supposed to do""you learn, before going against the evil you have to start at the very bottom an
"bring them in""yes saintess"a group of men and women dressed like those characters in a Fantasy game walked in but with no weapon in hand, they number in the hundred I think"hero, this here are the greatest warriors in the land and from them you are to chose which ones you want as your companion""is there a set number for me to pick""no, you have the right to pick any amount you want but it's better for you if you start with a minimum number for better coordination""okay"Hmmm...which one should I pick, they all look too fierce and strong, I feel my self esteem as a man getting degraded if I were to stand side by side with themwell trained muscles and marks on their faces that signifies the trophy of victory, some who are not even female have beautiful faces plastered in their faces and the female's who are not even that much are all still gorgeous looking but they all pale in comparison to the saintessI wouldn't call myself ugly but I would also not call myself handsome, I
I was curious if they were going to hold an introduction party for me to announce to the world of my appearance and also to make my face knownas far as I know things like that are usually done for someone in a high position and that position is what I hold as the hero of the world but Elle rejected the ideasomething in the line of I need to earn recognition instead of having it handed over to meIf the party was really held then I won't be able to join the Mercenary guild and if she pulls some string and I do join the guild, the kind of treatment I will be given will be different from the normal treatment given and that loses its purpose of why I joined the guildfor that reason I am going to register myself in the guild while being undercover together with Hilma and Adne. "umm.. Hero I want to thank you for standing up for me against the elders of the kingdom""that? it's nothing much, I was only doing my duty as a hero""still it could not have been easy for you t..""it's really
"her.. I mean lord Raynold should we not pick out a weapon for you first before registering at the mercenary guild""a weapon""yes, before you can be accepted into the mercenary guild you will have to go through a testing phase to determine what rank you will be placed""oh if it's like that I really do need a weapon""as a hero can you not just make use of magic and leave the weapon handling to me, that is what I am really here for""I can't do that, I have not mastered how to use any of the energy, I just had my energy core unlocked not too long ago and it's going to take some time before I can use it so until then I will need a weapon for self defense like Hilma suggested, although I don't think I will be needing it that much since you both are by my side""as a hero it is wrong for you to want to rely on us rather we should be the one relying on..""yes yes, I have heard you madam know it all, please, I don't need another lecture from you""I am not a madam""whatever you say, Hi
