“There is no way to go back other than the one known by the headpriest. Which reminds me, why are you guys here if the demon king has been defeated? Shouldn’t they send you back?”

“How do you know the heroes are sent back when they have defeated the demon king?” This woman…she is starting to piss me off with her questions.

“Calm down. Will’s master was a hero in this world as well. Isn’t that right?” Will, how much did you reveal to this guy? Did you trust him that much?

Telestal looks at me and after I nod, the heavy atmosphere that was settling dissipates.

“Then, can you help us?” One of the heroes finally open his mouth. It was about time, I thought you guys were mute.

“Help you?” The whole lot of them stand up like a single body and move over to me.

“Yes, bring us back, please. You came to pick up Will, right? Then bring us back!!”

    |Hey, Will, what would you do if you can't do something, like no matter how hard you try, you just can't do it?| Tch! Why did I have to think of this right now? "Urg…" I stand back up the best I can but it seems my body won't hold out much longer. "Ahahaha…I must have been a real fool to think that I could do it without going beyond the limits." "Are you finally going to give up?" The ruler of demons is standing in front of me, with his eery presence and his dominant strength. "I will commend you for resisting so much but sadly, it has to end. You can blame that god for giving you such a handicap." "Handicap, huh…" He is not wrong though. I would have never thought there would be so many obstacles on my path. If I had known, perhaps I wouldn't have…I see. "Fufufu, I see. That's why I thought about it now, huh." "Amazing. You smile even in front of your death. You truly were amazing." The bastard raises his hand and makes a giant black

  • What do you see beyond the hill?   CHAPTER 1: NEW WORLD

    "Welcome heroes. Welcome to our world." Among the almost hundred people that are standing before us, a woman wearing a stylish armor is talking. Her helmet doesn't show even the color of her hair or her eyes. Most of the others people also wear armors but she has the most stylish. Some of them are wearing indigo priest attire with hoods hiding their faces. "What is happening?" "What is this? Is this a prank?" The guys present all start looking around with dumb surprised faces. But I guess I must have the same kind of face right now. "I can't believe it." I blurt it out without thinking. But I don't think anyone would resent me if they knew. That fucking old bastard was telling the truth. The whole time, it was all true. Right when I was about to give up and accept that I was mistaken, I am shown the way. "I know that you may be surprised but we beg you to remain calm as we will explain everything." "Hey!! What the fuck

    Soon after me, all the other people who were brought to the room also wakes up and receives the same explanation. Ian, however, asks if it is possible to move and talk to other people. "Yes, of course, we don't mean to frighten you in any way." After the soldier answers him, he leaves his bed and to another one, without even looking at me. That's good. I won't move a finger should you guys do anything after all. A bit after, the door opens and three of those indigo priests enter. I thought Ian would start something as the door is opened but to my surprise, there is nothing going on. I can't see clearly who he is with because of all the decorations they put on the beds. "Once again, we greet you, heroes from another world." "From another world?" Apparently, there is a girl here as well. And from where her voice came, she must be with Ian. "Yes, it is surely confusing for you but you aren't on what you called earth right now. You are on

  • What do you see beyond the hill?   CHAPTER 3: AMPLIFY

    I still remember that conversation since it was one of the few we had where he wasn't yelling or trying to kill me. "There is one skill that you must get if you ever make it there. It is the only skill truly amazing that was hidden among trashes. That skill, I neglected it and regretted it as well. If I knew how much of a fool I was then." "I don't understand anything of what you are saying anyway so please, just let me sleep." "You will certainly, but for now, remember the name of the skill: Amplify." *** I didn't really believe in all this back then and I only wanted to run away from you at the time, but now, I would almost want to say thank you, almost. "You…don't you understand what-" "I don't care, Ian. You guys have your problems and I have my own. And it is not like we need all of them to teach us, right?" "What are you going on ab-" I grab the priest's hand while Ian is talking. If I let them go with thi

    A guy comes out from the knight. He is wearing a red armor and the gold lining on it creates the shape of a predator's jaw which is ready to bite. His brown hair are attached behind his head, allowing his face to be seen clearly. He has no scar on his face and "Vice-captain of the order, Sir Telestal, the kingdom thanks you for your cooperation. We hope t-" "Spare me the pleasantries. We all know you don't mean it." "I see. Then, I shall take my leave." The guy leaves just like that. And the others turn around and start talking among themselves, as if to flee from my eyes. What are you all feeling guilty about? It is perfectly understandable that the weaks are cast away. I see nothing wrong with that. "Let's go, then." Telestal turns around and starts walking. I follow him and as we get past the other knights, I notice that some of them have recent wounds. Are they already at war? We leave the courtyard through an iron gate and

    We enter the courtyard and to my surprise, the butlers and the maid from earlier are already changed. "That's some awesome speed they have." I don't think it took us two minutes to get here. And yet, not only did they change but they arrived here before us. And they are not even sweating? Maybe they wore a one-piece armor above their butler uniforms? The maid then comes to me. She is wearing a tight leather armor that follows her body to the clock. She also has daggers attached to her waist. She is holding a white shirt and pants and three different weapons made of wood: a sword, a dagger, and a mace. "Sir, would you like to change?" She presents everything to me. "Hm… I don't really care but, yeah, no problem. Just the shirt though, I don't want to waste too much time." I take the white shirt with long sleeves then as I remove my school uniform, I hear a weird noise coming not from the girl but from Telestal. "What is it?" I l

I don’t remember hanging out with their children that much.“W-what?” The knight who was advancing to me turns around with a trembling voice then looks back at me with teary eyes. “Is it true?”He asks me as if it would change his whole life.“What do you-”“Are you truly his master?” He asks a different question now.“His master?” Wait, did he know Will? “Did you perhaps know him?”“I…” The knight kneels before me and lowers his head. “I am the one who failed to educate him when he came to this world. Should you blame anyone for his death, I should be the one to bear that grudge.”“Well, that was unexpected.”Since I found someone who knew him, I decided to stick with the group of heroes for

    “Don’t falter!! There is not much of them left on this side!!”“Aim for the eyes!! The skin is too tough for the arrows!”When I reach the place of the battles, most of the houses have been levelled up by the monsters in the area. What surprises me is that they seem to come from the sea. Why and how were they able to swim to here? What even happen that could lead to this situation?“Why do I even think about it?”I run past the mercenaries who are fighting and grab one of the two knights who came earlier by the neck.“What is hap-”I don’t give him the time to retaliate in any way and goes through the horde of monsters coming while holding him.The trolls start swinging their arms as soon as I am near them.

    “Get serious?” The Valkyrie frowns and a sudden fighting intent fills the place, making the air heavier. I guess I got her mad. “You arrogant little shit.”The knight with her grabs his sword with two hands and releases his aura to the fullest as well. Well, why not?“let’s see.” I release my aura completely as well and although it is a bit disappointing, I was already aware of the fact that the Valkyrie had a stronger aura.Sadly for her, it is not with the power of your aura alone that you can win a fight.“Be ready!!”“Yes!!”After screaming to the knight, the Valkyrie raises her hands and unleashes a powerful move full of aura. Sigh…You don’t seem to understand. Surely, they are waiting for me to use my skill and create a counter. You never even thought that I could have more than one skill.“That’s why it’s difficult to get serious wi

    As she releases her aura, it creates a pressure all around me. Yeah, the Valkyries are still quite powerful.“But this is not really threatening.”“He is a hero!! Be careful!” Under the warning of the guy I was trying to kill just now, the Valkyrie stops and backs away immediately.“All the heroes were brought back to the principality of the god of law and balance for further training, why did you stay behind?”The other knigths join her back, only the guy I was sure to kill stays behind me.“Valkyire of power, I believe he is not with the heroes who came.” One of the knights start speaking with him. It would seem he was present during the summoning ceremony.“Eh? Then what? You are saying he came here by himself?”“I don’t know. But we will need to investigate.”From everything they just said, it seems they don’t know Will defeated the demon ki

    In less than two minutes, he puts the fish on a plate and the pink color is shining even more while the fish smells really good. I remove my gauntlets while he prepares the dressing and puts it all around the fish.“Here you go.” He puts the plate before me and the smell is even more fragrant now.“Thank you.”“Wait!!!” Right as I am about to dig into it, the cook stops me, presenting me a small bowl of water. Oh, I forgot.“Sorry, I forgot a little.”“No worries.” The etiquette as they say. I wash my hands first then dig into the fish.AThis…this isn’t as good as I remember. It is true that it smells good but the taste isn’t as I remember. It used to be better. It used to be the best. So how come?“Sir, is there a problem?” The cook seems to be concerned about me. Why?“No, there is no problem.”“If there is anyt

How come?“Hirvin?”“Y-yes.” I am so surprised to hear her voice that I fumble and bite my tongue. I never thought she would look like this. “I-I-”“What is happening? This…I was not here before, and then I came back?”“It is only a dream, don’t worry.” I wonder how the place where you are now looks like. But I won’t ask. I shouldn’t ask.“I see. Well, it’s true that I do tend to dream a lot. I always had, right?”“Yeah, you were quite the big dreamer, quite the naïve one as well.”“Fufufu. You are always the same. You are too honest.”“Hehe. Not as much as you.”After I say that, silence falls and we don’t say anything for almost a minute.
