Summoned To Another World As A Useless Hero

005. Hero Training.

The appraisal was necessary to determine what level the heroes were. Naturally, they were expected to be on a low level since they had only just arrived. The most impressive rank for a hero to be during their first appraisal was the D rank. Heroes who got a D rank from the start were the ones who tend to reach great limits.

The appraisal is done to find the necessary information about each hero.

Every human on the planet are descendants of the great primordial gods, and while most of them are never able to fully manifest it, every human was given an ability.

An ability is basically a skill that we inherit from our past ancestors. The appraisal helps in finding out what it is, so the hero's training can be directed in that aspect.

Skills however are abilities that a hero learns Every hero has the capacity to acquire six skills, seven if they have an ability they're born with.

Additionally, their physical strength and intelligence are important as a hero can never fully grow if he or she is unable to learn or handle tough situations.

Soul power was also very important because it determined how strong a hero's resolve would be. A hero with a weak soul power would never have the courage to reach their full potential.

Magicule restraints was basically the amount of magicules a hero can withstand. Skills are the direct crystallization of magicules and they permanently take up space inside the body of the user. So the higher the soul power, the more space there is for a hero to reach and possibly surpass their limits.

Feats are referred to as the accomplishment a hero has, be it saving people from danger or vanquishing monsters.

The rank of a hero was basically a grade to label how good he or she was. The lowest rank was the F, while the highest was the S. But on some occasions, a hero would surpass the expectations of the world, reaching up to a level that was more than impressive. Attaining strength and skills that were deemed almost impossible, those heroes became the SS rank.

Bloodline was basically the god in which a hero descended from. As mentioned earlier, every living human was connected to the primordial gods…or the dark one. Never had one person been in between or without a link to either.

Until now.

Miyano stared at Minato, unable to shake off the feeling that he was more than just an Unwanted. Or maybe that was just what he wanted to believe.

Kaito's mean comment suggested that they must have known each other back in the normal world, and they weren't friends.

Miyano wanted to go to Minato, to comfort him and tell him that he could always grow stronger, but his feet refused to move. Instead he stood there, his eyes glued to Minato's figure. The latter found his gaze and both of them watched each other. A few seconds later, Miyano noticed a change in his expression, it went from being upset to looking more determined. Maybe he didn't have to say anything to him after all.

Bato dono told them the basics of their training and to Miyano's surprise, it wasn't far off from the normal exercise he was used to.

"Before building up your strength, you must unlock and master your chi." He had said.

In his words, chi was the circulating life force of a human. A vital energy or life force that flowed through all living things, governing the physical, emotional and spiritual well being. Hero or not everyone had chi inside them, what separated a hero from a regular person was the ability to fully unlock and master it.

Unlocking one's chi had various benefits as it helped in improving the health and strength of an individual. It also increased the flow of one's chakra.

Chakra was the seven major energy points governing various aspects of human consciousness. Basically, chakra is the flow of chi to the seven main points of a human body.

The first training was something called tai chi, what they did was just simple exercises and breathing techniques. Bato dono said unlocking their chakras would help increase their soul power and magicules restraints.

The first was the crown chakra, located in the crown of the head and its purpose was to increase a person's knowledge and spirituality. Once a person unlocked it, they would emit a violent fire like aura.

The second was the third eye chakra. It was located between the eyebrows and its purpose was to enhance a person's ability to think and understand. Once unlocked, an indigo aura would appear.

The third was the throat chakra located at the base of the throat, it improved the person's communication ability. Expressing one's self becomes more natural and mature. Once unlocked, a light blue aura would be emitted.

The fourth, the heart chakra located in the chest region and its purpose was to increase the person's kindness and humanity. A green flame like aura would appear once it had been unlocked.

The fifth, the solar pexus located at the bottom of the rib cage, and its purpose was to increase one's pride and confidence in themselves, boosting their self esteem. Once unlocked, an aura of bright yellow mixed with a bit of brown would appear.

The sixth was the sacral chakra, it was located below the navel and its purpose was to increase a person's cleverness and imagination. Such individuals wouldn't be affected by any sexual plots against them. Once unlocked, an orange aura would be seen.

The seventh and last was the root chakra, located at the base of the spine. The purpose is to increase the durability of an individual during battle. Once unlocked, an aura of bright red flame would appear.

The first person to unlock the chi was the same person who had automatically become Miyano's enemy, kaito.

"Most impressive kaito sama. It pleases me to see that this generation of heroes are surpassing our expectations quite easily."

Kaito grinned at the old man's compliment and threw a challenging glance at his direction.

'So he was one of those kinds who were super competitive over everything?'

And since they were both fighting for the top spot, he would want to focus his attention on him. Well too bad, he had other things in mind.

With only a few more hours in their training, another aura burst out, even more bright than Kaito's. Everyone paused and stared at the person leaking out sweat as he did push ups, completely oblivious that he had become a subject of interest for the heroes in training.

"Mi…nato?"
