Chapter 1 – Status
“Have fun~”
For a moment my mind was completely blank because now, it's not just me that was summoned but my whole class.
Alek: “What the hell”
I look around and my classmates have the same reaction as me, some are scared, others excited. In front of us is a group of armored men, in the middle is an old man that looked like he was about 60 or 70 years old, next to him is a small girl with curly blonde hair reaching up to her shoulders, whos holding the hand of a teenager around my age with the same curly blond hair, they looked like they were brother and sister.
They’re the royal family I’m guessing, this is the usual pattern anyways… But what the hell am I supposed to do now that I’m with my whole class!? If this was just like my usual ‘Errands’ I would have already taken initiative, but this time I can’t do that. If they find out what I actually am then things would just get harder for me in the long run.
Surprisingly our class representative, a girl with a short stature that has her hair tied into a ponytail while wearing glasses. Yup, you guessed it, the stereotype Class Rep.
She folds her arms and looks up to the king like she owned the place, wow I knew she was stuck up but not this stuck up.
Class Rep: “Where are we and who are you, people!?”
One of the armored men takes a step forward and was about to say something before the old man (king) raises his hand to silence him
King: “Welcome heroes. I am Leoric Gereus, king of the Holy Lagus Empire.” He says before bowing elegantly, the brother and sister, which I’m assuming are his children does the same.
He slowly raises his head and begins to explain for about an hour. Nothing that I haven’t heard of before actually~ Right now there’s a demon lord who threatened to take over the world with his demon army, blah blah blah, y’know, the usual stuff. After a while, the old geezer finally finishes his long ass explanation and everyone in my class except me has this stupid expression on their faces as if they couldn’t believe what they were hearing.

One of the guards looks at me and raises an eyebrow, I guess he’s surprised that I don’t have the same stupid look on my face like everyone else, After a few of the same repetitive explanation you kinda get used to it y’know? I shrug my shoulder in response and break eye contact with him.
After the king's explanation, he gives us a tour of the palace, its one of prettier palaces I’ve been to. It had walls made out of marble, the floor was fully covered by a carpet and there were expensive looking pottery and paintings everywhere. After looking around a little I turn my head and see the same armored guy staring at me! What the hell has he been staring at me since that time!? That’s creepy man! My whole body shivers and a frown appears on my face as I walk away from him.
All I felt from that guy was trouble, and I don’t need trouble.
After a few minutes of walking we end up in a throne room where the old guy sits on his golden throne, the group of armored men go into formation and make a human wall between us and him. The king raises his hand and begins to talk soon after the soldiers finish their formation.
King: “ Now that I have explained to you my worlds situation, could you find it in your heart to help us defeat the Demon Lord?”
Wow, that’s a first, he's asking us to help him like how a beggar asks for money. Is he that desperate?
The class rep. nods her head before talking to the king
Clase Rep: “Give us a sec to think about it kay?”
Why the heck are you talking to the king like you’re equals!? The hell!? Are you really that stuck up!?
I shake my head and let out a small sigh as the class starts to form a small circle to talk about the king's request. Of course, I’m not part of this circle because they think my opinion doesn’t matter. . . No, I don’t care. . . Not at all.. *sniff*

I stand outside the group circle awkwardly, rubbing the back of my neck as I looked around the room while at the same time voiding eye contact with the king and all his guards. Especially that one that's been staring from the very start... what a creep.
After a few minutes of talking the class rep turns around and faces the king with a smile on her face
Class Rep: “We accept your request !”
Oi oi, what do you mean you accept!? Do you really think beating a demon lord is that easy!? Gah! Idiots! Whatever, I don’t care what happens to you anyways.
After hearing this the king's mood instantly turns from gloomy emo child to the happiest old man in the world. He suddenly stands up and claps once.
King: “Thank you, heroes! Now Roman, please teach our heroes the basic commands”
Commands? So its one of those ‘Realities’ huh? A world where level and stats is everything, where killing monsters give you items, basically Nerds paradise.
When the king finishes speaking one of the armored men walk in front of us and stares at me for a few seconds before starting to talk. Wait a minute. . . That’s the same guy that was staring at me a while ago! It’s the creep!
Roman (creep): “First things first, we need you to check your stats, to do this you need to think of the word ‘STATUS’. You need a bit of concentration at first but you’ll get used to it in the near future”
Unlike the others, I’ve done this hundreds of times so I easily open my status. A small blue rectangle appears in front of me with a long list of things about me.

I nod, seeing that my stats are still the same... What? You thought I was some weakling?
Well, the thing about being Gods Errand boy is that every time I finish an 'Errand' The things I get from that world like Magic spells, levels and stats stay. The only thing that's stopping me from destroying the whole school in one punch is the Limiter God put on me everytime I'm on my original 'Reality'. Without it, I would have punched a hole through several people by now.
Soon, my classmates also start to see their stats, of course, I couldn't see it because only the owner can see it, that's why no one freaked out when I opened my Stats window~
Roman (The creep) folds his arms and nods his head
Roman: "Your group seems to have already learned how to use status I see." He turns his head to face the King "My lord, If I may have a selfish request, May I have a duel with one of the heroes so that I could see how strong they currently are?"
The Old man nods his head as he gives permission.
Roman raises his head and puts out a smile, no not the cute, cheerful smile, I'm talking about a smile that will only bring trouble as he turns his head to look at me
Roman: "Then I challenge you!"
See, I told you.

The Luckless Mage of Greidwhen Academy
A TOURNAMENT OF SORCERERS… AND THE MISFIT WHO ENTERED IT. Ever since she was a little girl, Lucy Hardtvelt has wanted to attend the same academy of magic her mother had graduated from, as well as compete in the same, famous Sorcerers Tournament hosted there every year. And finally, after having her application accepted, Lucy is jubilant to begin her first year at the prestigious Greidwhen Academy for Mages. Unfortunately, Lucy soon finds that, unlike her mother, she herself has little to no aptitude in the magical arts—struggling to keep even the most basic of spells from blowing up in her face. Now, having been given a harsh dose of reality, Lucy must find out if she has what it takes not only to survive at Greidwhen, but also the Sorcerer’s Tournament and its one-thousand contestants where the winner will be given the title of Champion Sorcerer, as well as the right to challenge the Celestial Mages—who are known to have been defeated only a handful of times…

He felt it. The way helplessness kicked in and showed him the sweet but suffocating cage he was locked in. He just wanted to break free and feel the thrill of being alive. Having been granted that wish, he'll find himself amidst the conflicts of creatures lurking in the shadows and super-powered humans that prefer basking in the daylight among the average. It's not a problem though, he'll thrive and survive. He has a system after all.
