The Max Level Hero: Strike Black

Four

“But, are we just normal people?”

“Haha… No, try opening your status card, I think you'll see that it has changed quite a bit.”

“Tag… status???”

Jacob was perplexed to hear King Owen say such a puzzling thing.

“The status card? That green and transparent thing? It's rectangular, this big!" – King Owen had an equally confused expression on his face. He tried to describe what he called a status card with his hand.

'Um… status card! OH? That's interesting too… Very interesting, on the other hand, I didn't think I'd have these.'

“Your Majesty, as far as I know, it seems that the world of these Heroes does not exist in magic. So there's a chance that even the status tag doesn't exist there."

"Really?"

"...Yes? Probably so?" - Jacob didn't know how to answer, so he nodded politely.

“Well, there must have been a lot of people dying from illness in your world. Poor thing…” – King Owen paused for a beat and continued – “The status cards are roughly the information about you displayed in an easier to understand format. How strong are you guys? What powers are there? What skill? What is the condition of the body? Et cetera..."

Seeing that Jacob and the others still seemed to be too vague about this concept, King Owen spoke.

“Hmm, maybe it's faster to show you guys than to say… Status card!”

As soon as King Owen finished speaking, a card suddenly appeared with a bell. And floated in front of him without falling. The card was green, transparent, and thin, however, it was large enough to cover King Owen's face.

King Owen raised his hand and took the card in front of him. Immediately, a servant standing to the right of the throne walked up to King Owen, in his hand was an emerald as large as a baseball.

Taking the emerald from his servant, King Owen arranged his card so that it hovered in front of the stone and shouted.

"Slideshow!"

The emerald sucked the floating card in and released many rays of light into the air. Those rays of light formed a three-dimensional stereoscopic image, what appeared to be the card earlier but magnified at least a few dozen times so that other people could read the contents.

“This is my status card.”

“Wow, that's great! A hologram?”

"But we..."

“Don't know how to call it out right? Just imagine the rough shape of the status card and say 'Status Card'! It's easy!"

Hearing King Owen say that, some people also tried, however...

“…Status card?”

“Eh, ah, the status card…”

“T-Status Card!”

“T-rr-dawn card… i!”

...

"Did we do something wrong?"

...It seems that calling out the status card is not as easy as King Owen said. Jack also tried it excitedly and was immediately embarrassed.

'...Isn't it so easy to do? How useless you are.'

While the group still didn't know what to do, Claire Reed's clear but emotionless voice rang out.

“Status card.”

All eyes in the room were focused on her. Ignoring that, Claire was still glancing at the contents of the status card in her hand.

“Ah, lady! That's it! You did it, now show it to me!”

"This."

Claire just replied curtly and threw the status card in her hand at King Owen.

“Okay, slide show!”

After reaching up and grabbing it, King Owen repeated what he had done with his status card.

Seeing Claire's status card, old man Mason couldn't help but be surprised.

“N-No way? It's only at level 1 that both mana and mana derivatives are in the four digits? Does that mean she's on a par with my genius magician? Don't joke okay? A genius like me has to spend decades training to be like this?"

“Mason? Have some manners!”

“Yes… Anyway, the Hero should at least be able to do this…”

“…Hmm, even your lowest stats are ten times higher than a normal person's. Not to mention those extraordinary skills. It really is not ashamed of the Hero's name."

Seeing that Claire could easily call out her status card, the rest of the group immediately asked her for guidance.

“Just imagine its basic shape, a transparent blue card. And when calling it out, the correct pronunciation comes in.

“So what? Let me give it a try!”

Daphne closed her eyes and focused her thoughts. She took a deep breath, opened her eyes, and shouted.

“Status Card!!”

"Haha, even though it's possible to call it out... but calling it out like that..." Daphne couldn't help but smile wryly out of embarrassment.

"OH? Are you really an archer, Daphne? What a star of the archery club!" ' cried Janet.

Meanwhile, King Mason stroked his beard and showed a satisfied smile.

“Oh, this lady's stats are also sky high! Mason, you really did a great job!”

"This is my servant... It's not worthy of your praise... Your Majesty... Sorry, but I'm not feeling well, Your Majesty, please excuse me."

“Okay, I'll allow you, go back! I will reward you for your contributions!”

"Yes..."

With that, old man Mason turned around and hurried out of the room in a huff.

“Okay, now you guys let's continue calling each of your status cards.”

“Um… um, status card.” ' said Janet tactfully.

At her command, a bell rang and the status card immediately appeared.

"There's really no need to brag, is there?"

Daphne's smile faltered at the sight. She felt extremely regretful for her act of smugness...

Hero Summoned, Hero.

Read King Owen suddenly jumped to his feet and spoke loudly excitedly.

"A hero!!!! Are my eyes wrong!?”

"Isn't it strange to be a Hero?" Jacob tilted his head in confusion and asked.

"Of course! If it is said that a Hero can achieve the strength of a hundred people, then a person with the Hero class must be at least five times that much stronger. After all, Raven, the previous Hero, was the one who defeated the Demon Lord with his own hands!”

"OH!"

"Oh! Jacob is amazing!”

“Simon is different!!!”

“Is there anything Jacob can't do!?”

The girls competed to flatter the young Hero to cloud nine. As for the Lees who kept shouting "Status Cards", how could they afford to be inferior to Jacob?

However, if fate has failed, it will forever be inferior. Most of them only received jobs that sounded pretty normal like Martial Artist, Gladiator or Swordsman... except for a few special cases. At least each of them possessed significant stats and had at least one unique skill, marked with the word (Unique). According to King Owen, such skills can only be possessed by one person and are often overwhelmingly powerful or bring many very special effects.

“Its mother! Don't think you're the only one, look at me here! Status Card!!!”

As each status card was called out, King Owen continued his conversation with Jacob.

“Now you understand, right? Jacob? With your strength, defeating the Demon King shouldn't be difficult. So... could you be kind enough to help me? I promise I won't let you suffer, whatever you want, I'll give it all!"

Jacob thought for a moment, then spoke.

“…Can you let me talk to my friends for a bit?”

"Of course! Be natural!”

With a slight nod, Jacob turned to face his classmates and spoke.

“Everyone, I know what's happening is all of a sudden. Just this morning we were ordinary people, and now we are trusted as heroes by others, it is really hard to believe…” – Jacob paused for a moment and then continued – “… But, with what we have seen, even if we don't want to believe it, it's hard. And if we really have this kind of power, then I think we should use it to help people in need. Every one of you must have wanted to be the hero of the savior, right? This is our chance! How do you guys feel?”

“…You're right!”

“With great power comes great responsibility, right?”

“Jacob is so cool!”

“The chance to be honored as a hero and even get a great reward? It sounds fascinating.”

Seeing most of his classmates nodding in agreement with the idea of being a hero, Jacob told the king.

“Sir, we will do our best to protect the people here.”

“…W-So you agree?”

King Owen spoke in a trembling voice, unable to contain his excitement at all.

"Right! We will become the ones who will protect this world!”

----0o0---

“Oh, are you a Mage? That's great, I don't like being a Guardian at all..."

After Jacob accepted King Owen's offer, the group of students were given a brief explanation of their stats and skills. They were all happy and excited to talk to each other about their strength.

“At least your defense is high. And sorcerers like me are usually paper-blooded…”

“But you can use magic! My mana and mana derivation stats are so mediocre, I wonder if they can do any good? If you have high magic power derivation, then magic will also have a lot of power, just like that old man just now.”

“Honestly, it seems that Warriors like me are the happiest, not tied to a certain weapon, and the stats are evenly distributed.”

“But isn't your Skill Level very high?”

“Shut up, at least my unique skill looks delicious!”

'Um, a while ago they didn't even know what the hell they were doing here, and now they've adapted to this... Funny, but you still haven't called the Status Card? What is the mind made of to be so stupid?"

After all, Jack is the last person King Owen has yet to see the Status Card on. But through many failed attempts, Jack is confident that this time he can do it...

“…Status Card!”

...And you really did.

“Finally done!!!” Jack shouted with joy.

'Um, let's see how it goes... Huh? ...Haha! Hahahaha!!! What kind of stats is that?'

At first Jack intended to read through the contents of the card briefly, but realizing that he had kept the people waiting too long, he hurriedly threw the card at King Owen.

'It's probably okay.'

'Um, it's okay, it's very okay.'

When the contents of his status card were shown in holograms... Jack was speechless, just staring at it.
