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
"that does it for your equipment and weapon, the price for everything is set at one Gold Zor""you swindler""pretty miss, I did not swindle you, what I sold for you is a very rare antique you will never get anywhere else and even if you do come across a store that has it, the price can never be the same as what I just called for you" "old man no need to mind her, like I said we have enough to cover our expenses, she is just being petty is all""hoho!!.., I know her type, they frequent here a lot and end up buying nothing even though have the money""tch!!""we should get going now, we still haven't registered at the mercenary guild""be sure to come back for more equipment, I will be expecting you at any moment"."that old man sure is something""when you say something you mean been a cunning cheater""I don't know about that, he seems actually nice to me""do not be fooled by what you are being made to see, only decide after you have confirmed what the inner part looks like""has a
"hmm...., hmm.....!!" "hey Hilma why is she staring at us like that""Jenny is something wrong""i was just caught with surprise, I have never seen you mingling with the other mercenaries and because of that I pictured you as the lonesome type, you coming to me with two people to register them in the mercenary guild was something I did not expect""it seems our little Missy here have been living a lone life, well not to worry because that is about to change now with us here""judging from your way of addressing her it seems you have met with old man Logan""Logan...""the one that probably sold you the equipment you are putting on""ohh... you mean that old pervert who is into girls that are young enough to be his grandchildren""yep.. it's that one alright, I see he has even showed his disturbing attitude to you his newly found customers""don't even go there, he has no shame and no respect for customers from the looks of it but at the same time he his also pretty welcoming that is
Adne filled in the details on the two form and when she was done she handed it over to Jenny the receptionist for cross checking "huhmu!! huhmu!!""so you are both nobles and also related""the detail says it all"before I left the church, the saintess brought up the issue of identity to megoing forward I am going to be interacting to not only the people belonging to the holy kingdom but people across the continentto respect the royals that spread across the continent I need a suitable position as a noble before addressing them and the highest noble in the holy kingdom open for adoption is the Rostami familyit was really disturbing to know that my status as a hero is not enough to make contact with the nobles, perhaps they do not fancy the idea of the hero being from the commomers side"we have filled the form now when are we going to take the test""... follow me"she came out of the receptionist desk and went to the sideways end of the room and opened the iron door, not knowing
