《World of Tala》Chapter 8 – The Message and the Summoning

Advertisement

“As expected of senpai!”

Gino jokingly said to me while clapping his hands while the receptionist’s seems to be quite surprised by my fight her mouth was lose open as she silently stare at me. In fact, it’s not only the receptionist but also the other people who are inside this room, their mouths were open. Seriously, I want to fight a little longer since I feel that we’re just getting started but my sword broke so it would be the end. Well, if that’s a real fight where we bet our lives on the line then I won’t stop as long as I breathe though. But still, having fought that hard and ended up with the same rank as Gino brings me down, I mean, I fought an A-rank adventurer head on without having a clear victor yet I ended up as D-rank? Isn’t it annoying?

“Ahem”

I pretended to cough to get the attention of the receptionist and as if my cough is the restart button, she jolted and fixes her appearance.

“Ahem… Congratulations on becoming D-rank, please follow me.”

I don’t know what we are going to do now but we followed the receptionist just like she told and went out of the room. We return to the desk and she put two crystal orb on the desk.

“This is a device that will automatically record your personal information such as name, age, sex, and job class when you put your hand on it and press the button here.”

She pointed a button located on the top of the orb. I don’t know how this thing works at all but if I were to compare it to a device in the modern world, it would be like biometric scanner used in offices. Well, this is a fantasy world after all.

I put my hand on the orb similarly Gino did the same and press the button at the top. The orb shines white and scanned my palm, it looks like a photocopying machine by the way.

*Ting*

A ring came off from the orb indicating that it’s already done so I draw my hand back. How did I know that it’s already done? You know when you heard a ring from a certain device it would mean that it’s already done doing the thing it supposed to do. Similarly, Gino did the same.

“Thank you. Please come back tomorrow since creating a new guild tag takes time. Thank you for registering at the guild. Have a nice day”

The receptionist smiled as we go. There’s no particular thing that we are going to do so maybe I’ll ask Gino to teach me how to read and write. Looking at the notice board, it seems that all of them are written in alibata and I don’t know how to read it. Aaah! I wish I have a skill that will allow me to read and write the writings of this world!

A man in his mid-30s is reading a report regarding the oracle of the Goddess inside a certain office in the royal castle. He’s reading the report thoroughly making sure that he doesn’t miss anything about it.

“Is this true?”

The man put down the report on his document filled desk and lifts up a cup of coffee. With a sip, the bitterness of the coffee spreads out in his mouth making him calm.

“Yes your highness, this is the exact words that the priestess said when she received the oracle.”

The man who’s enjoying his cup of coffee is the king of the Kingdom of Sevir. His name is Ferdinand Lucid Sevir also known as King Ferdinand the first.

King Ferdinand the first brings down his cup and took a glance at the report on his desk. The report was given to him just about a minute ago and he prioritized on reading it despite working on other documents concerning the kingdom’s affair since gods really exist in this world and in fact, he met one before he reincarnated on this world. Yes he is a dayo. On the day when he died on Earth, the Goddess said that he’s going to give him another chance in another world. At first he did not believed it and thought that that was all a dream and so he half-heartedly listened to the Goddess thinking that when he woke up, he won’t remember it anyways but contrary to his expectation, the next time he woke up he’s already in the body of a new-born baby. At first he thought that his dream turned to a very weird direction but as time passed, he accepted this life as his new life. He was born as the crown prince of this kingdom and raised as the next king. As he was a dayo, a reincarnate one, he knew how to govern and in fact, he was previously a president of a certain country before he reincarnated. Though his people called him a tyrant, due to various circumstances but most of them came from his subordinates abusing the authority given to them, so at the present time the majority of the people are still mad at him but thanks to that he didn’t had a hard time learning it while at the same time he thinks that the current system is really inefficient both to the people and the country.

So after sitting on the throne he started rebuilding the kingdom to his taste while being careful so that the incident that happened on his past life won’t happen in this world. He created many roads and bridges, adopted the education system of Earth (though it’s still new so the result can’t be seen), improved the lands, recreated useful devices to this world etc. etc. giving him the title of ‘Wise King’. About those devices, he will receive divine punishment if he recreated it Earth-style so the Goddess told him, before he was born, that he can recreated as many items as he wants as long as it will use MP/magic power since it’s a renewable energy. The MP used will come back to the Dragon’s Vein which will distribute it to people who needs them. This way, even if the technology advances too much it won’t harm the planet.

‘To think that the fairy tales about it is true…’

He thought to himself while picking up the note again but no matter how many times he reads it the content never changes.

‘Haaaah… Our weapon isn’t ready yet and as much as possible I don’t want to call someone from the previous world but this is a problem we can’t face alone and the Goddess herself given us a permission to summon a hero...”

The note says:

The evil sleeping in the north shall wake up once more.

It will try to conquer this world again and everything will be turned to ashes.

As it burn villages to ashes, the citizen will try to defeat it but no matter what they try, no matter how many soldiers they gather, they will always fail.

So for you, my wise king. I would allow you to summon the hero who would save this world.

As someone who once grew up in a different world, I expect you to treat the hero courteously.

This message is especially for you my wise king. Your kingdom is the only one who was permitted to summon the hero, so do make haste since any day from now on the evil might woke up…

‘It would be nice if we could handle it all by ourselves without relaying to abducting someone but it seems that isn’t possible’

As King Ferdinand the first thought about those things, he looks at the man who gave him the message. The man looked at his 60’s but strangely enough, he moves like he’s on his prime. This man is his prime minister who he trusted the most.

“Go call the head priest, the lord commander of the royal guards and the head magician. Tell them to prepare the reagent used on summoning otherworlder and meet me at the throne room.”

“At once your Grace”

The prime minister bows down and exited the room. King Ferdinand leaned on his throne and let out a sigh.

‘I’m sorry to anyone who will be summoned but we need you right now so there’s no helping it. I hope that the Goddess will give him a reward after this…’

The king once more sighed and get up.

“Now then it’s time to go…”

He picks up the crown made of gold on the desk and wears it.

At the throne room, a big magic circle was embedded on a carpet that was laid out in the center of the room. There’s also a mountain of magic stone to be used as the power source for the ceremony besides the carpet. Summoning from another world consume too much MP from its caster and even if there’s a 10 high level sages working together, their MP was still too little to supply the ritual.

The king sits on the throne made up of gold and at its armrest there are skulls of the dragon carved on it. On his right there sat the queen on her chair, just like the throne, it’s made up of gold but the decorations were quite simpler than the former. The queen looks like she’s in her early 20’s but the reality is she’s already in her early 30’s.

While on his left sat the princess of this country, their only child, Princess Althea Lucid Sevir, she’s turning 18 this year with her blood red hair is inherited from his father while her emerald like eyes is from her mother. Her hair is tied to a bun while silver crown rest on her head. Her eyes were sparkling with interest since this will be the first time she will see an otherwolder being called on this world. She loves the story her father told her before about his previous world so she’s hoping that the one who will be summoned would also tell him about the other world. In her father’s story the world he lived before coming on to this world is a world where magic doesn’t exist but the technology used by the people were advancing at fast paced and right now, he doesn’t know what kind of technology does his previous world has. Upon hearing that, the princess asked her father to recreate those technologies but he said that he doesn’t know how to make them. At first she felt disappointed but her father gently patted her head and said: “My little princess, don’t be sad since I am currently working on finding the people who might know how to recreate them. Just be patient.” After hearing that, the princess smiled from ear to ear at that time and repeatedly thanked and praised her father. And right on this moment, another otherworlder will come. She met some dayo who works at his father’s workshop and talked about technology of their previous world, she felt satisfied by it and would love to hear them tell stories about it and she knows that those dayo have some works to do so she limited herself from asking too much but right now, there would be someone who she will be able to talk to. She volunteered herself as the one who will explain as to why he or she was summoned on this world.

“So, let us begin.”

The head magician said and along with other sages, they started to chant while the princess gets excited on someone who will be summoned.

‘If it is a man then I hope that he won’t be annoyed by me and if it is a woman then I hope that she can treat me as her little sister’

These are the thoughts of the princess while the chant continued. As the chant came nearer to its end, the princess excitement went up while the magic circle in the carpet started to glow brightly and the mountain of magic stone beside it slowly turns into dust.

The sages completed the chant and the magic circle shined brightly making it impossible to look straight at it so all of the people in the throne room close their eyes. As the brightness decreases, they slowly opened their eyes and saw a man and a woman standing in the middle of the carpet…

We are walking down the stairs while supporting Kaezar who became depressed on what happened on Jasper. I, Jack Anderson, and her cousin, Graziel Santos, are assisting Kaezar Padilla. By the time she wakes up it was already past 2:00PM and the first thing she did after waking up was to cry. I don’t know what should I say or do at that time so I just let her cry. They said that crying is a good way for relieving the sadness we’re feeling so I just let her be. Sometimes, she would say “Jasper where are you?” in between and watching her cry and speak the name of someone repeatedly aches my heart. I wanted to do something that will make her happy but I know that she only needs one thing, and that is news about the whereabouts of Jasper Perez.

Right now her eyes swallow and there’s no will in it as if she gave up on this world already which frightens me. I know that she won’t commit suicide even if we let her be but I’m afraid that it will be bad for her to stay like this but then again, I don’t know what to do… If only I know where in the hell is Jasper then I will drag him to her but sadly, I don’t.

“Hey Kaezar, it’s okay. Jasper is okay and maybe right now, he’s thinking on how run away from those terrorist!”

Graziel tried to cheer her up but it’s not working. I also wanted to cheer her up but I don’t know what to say… Should I just lie and said that Jasper texted me and he’s doing fine? That would be too obvious doesn’t it? What should I do?

As we take the last step on the stairs the surrounding became pure white and I feel that we are falling down.

“Uwaaaaaaa!!!!”

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh”

“…”

We screamed as we felt that we are falling but Kaezar was still unresponsive and as if she doesn’t seems to mind that we are currently falling down to somewhere we don’t know.

Honestly, there are some rumors about our campus being haunted and sometimes, students will feel that they are falling from a high ground while going down the stairs we currently used but I never thought that those rumors were true! After all, I used these stairs for a long time now!!

“W-w-w-w-what’s happening! Why are we falling?!”

Graziel asks questions while falling down but I don’t know what to say after all,

“I DON’T KNOW!”

Yup, I don’t really know what’s currently happening!

The supposedly rumors about this haunted campus became real all of a sudden and we are experiencing it firsthand!

Aaaaah!!! How did those rumors end up again? Would they just feel that there are falling even though they are not? Or are they just going to disappear like a bubble? Hopingly it’s the former!!

As the feeling of falling continues, I think I hear a voice saying

“Sorry for the inconvenience. My people forgot how to properly used the summoning spell since it’s been a very very long time since they last used it.”

Inconvenience? Spell? Last used? I don’t get it!

This is bad! Due to fear I’m starting to hear weird things in my head!

“H-hey Jack! Did you hear that?!”

Graziel asked me while gripping on Kaezar’s clothes.

“The voice of a girl?”

“Yes!”

It seems that it isn’t something that I hear due to my fear. What the hell is happening here!

I don’t know when we landed but I can now feel the ground and it seems that we are in a place where no matter what direction I look at I can only see the color white.

“Who are you?! Where are we?!”

Graziel shouts her question while I try to asses our situation. We are going down the stairs while supporting Kaezar and when we are on the last step, a light suddenly enveloped us followed by the feeling of falling down and we ended up in this white place… Yup it doesn’t make sense! Did we get abducted by an alien?

“Please calm down. I am the Goddess that supervises two worlds. I go by many names since the being that dwells in my worlds named me as such. If I we’re to give a name… Let’s see… Since the three of you are Catholics then should I call myself as the God Almighty, the father of Jesus.”

The Goddess (or so she call herself) gave us a name which we are familiar with but if she’s saying that she’s the father of Jesus, then why is she a girl? Isn’t it supposed to be a man since its ‘Father’.

“Jesus introduced me as a man since at that time the women had lower standing than men.”

As if the Goddess could read my thoughts, she answered my questions.

“Anyways, why are we here? Are we already dead?”

I asked. Since meeting a God that resides in heaven means that we’re already dead and we are in heaven now. Maybe that feeling of falling means that we tripped on the last step and bump our heads to the floor… That will only give us a few bumps on our head and by no means fatal… I don’t get it! How did we end up in heaven! In the first place, is this place really heaven?!

“Relax, my child. You could say that this is heaven and at the same time it is not. This place is where I meet the souls of the people regardless of what they did in the mortal realm and cleanse their soul for their next life. The reason why I called you here is not because you’re dead but because the other world which I supervise needs your help.”

I feel relieved when I learned that we are not dead yet at the same time, bewildered to see the actual heaven. The bible said that heaven is a place where there’s no conflict, sadness or anything associated with evil at all, all it have are perpetual prosperity and happiness. Well, they are half right since the only one here is the Goddess and almost all of the souls that went here got reincarnated already.

This whole time I did not opened my mouth but the Goddess answered almost all of the question I have, can she read my mind?

“Yes, I can read your mind.”

Even though I don’t see her, I feel that she’s looking at us with affection and smiling. Well, she’s a God after all so reading human mind is a simple task for her.

“Anyways, I called you here to seek help. Would you please help the other world that I supervise on defeating the evil existence which will appear in the near future? The current strength of that world isn’t enough and it will still be not enough after the evil wakes up.”

Heee~~ So the Goddess called us here to save her other world.

“That’s right. The world you will be saving is a fantasy world where magic exist. Of course you can freely recreate the Earth’s technology but please use magic as the source of power since I don’t want that world to have the same fate as Earth where pollution slowly destroys the world.”

“H-hey..”

Graziel tugged my clothes.

“Do you think that she’s telling the truth? I mean, we don’t really know her and there’s no assurance that we can survive on the world she’s saying.”

“I don’t know if we can survive but I think she’s telling the truth, at least that’s how I feel.”

Yes, strangely enough I feel that I can trust her. Not because of her status as the Goddess but as a person. There’s something that I can’t describe properly but I know I can trust her.

“Thank you for trusting me. But I won’t force you to help the other world since you will be separated to your family and friends if you go there but rest assured, even if you die there I’ll bring you back to Earth alive again and if by chance you’ll accept my request I’ll pause the time in Earth so that your family, loved ones, and friends won’t worry about you and after your done saving my world I’ll make sure that your future will be blessed.”

It’s quite attractive offer and since there’s nothing to lose my eagerness to go and help that world rising.

“I have a question before I accept your request, can you tell me where is Jasper Perez and how is he?”

This is something I wanted to know not only because I am worried about my friend but I wanted to relieved Kaezar’s worries.

Upon hearing my question, Kaezar looks at me bewildered by my question and I just smiled at her without saying anything. Kaezar’s eyes become moist because of what I did and said “thank you”. She hasn’t smiled yet but I know that no matter what the Goddess answer I’ll definitely support Kaezar the best that I could.

“Jasper Perez, he got transported to that due to rift of space. It seems that he got dragged by that rift and ended up there and he’s alright.”

“Thank God he’s okay…”

Kaezar’s cries as she feel relieved knowing that Jasper is alive and well and she’ll have a chance to meet him once more if she accepted the Goddess request… Honestly, it hurts knowing that she’s more concerned about Jasper’s wellbeing than her own but there’s nothing I can do about it since she loves Jasper that much and I love her this much… I guess I will never be someone who can replace the place of Jasper in her heart…

“We’ll accept your request.”

I said so without consulting the other two but looking towards Kaezar’s reaction when she heard that Jasper is in that world, I’ll bet that she wanted to go there as soon as she can but I don’t know about Graziel. I look at Graziel probing on what’s her decision but it seems that it’s a groundless worry. Graziel nodded at me and smiled as if she’s saying that “Don’t worry about me, we are at the same side wanting to support Kaezar”

It somehow feels weird. Our main purpose on going at that world is to save it but it ended up being our second priority since supporting Kaezar becomes the first reason that we are going there. I really hope that she would smile once more after meeting with Jasper.

“Then I’ll start transporting you to that world already. And also only the two of you, Jack Anderson and Graziel Santos since Kaezar Padilla’s body needs to be reconstructed. It might take a while but I promise you that she will be there too and just like you, she will be under my protection so that even if she died on there, she’ll come back to Earth safely. And also when you got there tell the people that it would be approximately a year before the evil wake up and I also go by different name in that world but please say that you met me as Mas, the Goddess of Prosperity.”

Before I could ask for us to be transported at the same time, my vision swirls and followed by the feeling of floating. I tried to shout but no voice came out from my mouth. The swirling of my vision became faster and faster and the next time I know it, I’m already on the ground with Graziel besides me inside a big hall…

At the time Jack and Graziel was being transported…

I never thought that he will come in that world again. This is something that I, the Goddess, would miss it even though I can somehow see the future. Anyways, the only one left in this room is the girl named Kaezar Padilla. She seemed confused to what is happening in her surroundings and the sudden disappearance of her friends made it worse.

“Now then, I’ll start reconstructing your body so that you can move easier in that world.”

Honestly, I don’t need to do this, the system I made on that world will repair and enhance her health, but I lied to them since she has someone with the same soul in that world. That person needs to die first before I transport her there or the system will misrecognize her information. With a snap of my finger, she lost her consciousness.

It won’t take a while since that person is destined to die at the end of this month and it’s already at the middle so she’ll live for a week only but I think I won’t let her reunite with Jack Anderson and Graziel Santos yet. I’ll grant her wish, even though she never voices it out. I’ll transport her near her beloved.

As I finished my plans, I sat down on my chair and picks up the remote of my TV and watch Earth’s entertainments. I don’t have anything to do so it’s okay to relax for a while and since minor task such as monitoring the world are left to our subordinates so there’s really nothing to do.

“They surely created some entertaining machine there. I wonder if I should connect to the internet or not?”

Watching while wondering about some trivial topics, I pour myself an alcohol called sake offered by my believers from the country called Japan.

I, Jack Anderson, am inside an unfamiliar hall with Graziel on my side. Our clothes are the same before we got transported into this world. There are old men surrounding us wearing a white robe holding staves. Not too far in front of us there are three people sitting on a throne. Two of them are woman and between them sit a man wearing a golden crown. He’s hair is blond and his eyes are blue he’s wearing a high quality blue cape and he’s gripping a scepter on his right hand, he maybe the king. On her right sit a woman she’s also wearing a golden crown but compared to the man it’s much simpler that also goes to her throne. Her hair is red as blood and her eyes are colored chestnut. The King looks on his 30’s but this woman looks at her early 20’s. Maybe she’s the princess of this kingdom and the one on left is her little sister since that girl looks like she’s in her teens, her hair is also red but her eyes are emerald. The little sister (temp) seems to be excited about something as she looks alternately at us. One step down the stairs on the throne on the right side of the princess (temp) there stand an old man looking at us carefully as if he’s inspecting a new item while on the left side of the little sister (temp) stand a man with a black hair and black eyes and no matter how you look at him you’ll know that he’s a Filipino. He wears a shining silver armor, it doesn’t have any speck of dirt and its literary shinning, and on his waist there’s a sword with overly decorated hilt and scabbard, I wonder if it’s just a ceremonial sword or it’s really is his weapon. Looking carefully at this knight (temp) face, he resembles Jasper a little bit.

“Welcome Heroes, you are in the presence of his majesty, King Ferdinand the First, king of the Kingdom of Sevir.”

The old man introduces the king while he carefully looks at us. I am dumbfounded by this situation but I remember the deal we have with the Goddess and it seems that I am summoned on this Kingdom of Sevir. It somehow feels I am inside the fantasy series game of thrones… speaking of that series, we got transported right before the episode 7 airs… I should have requested to the Goddess to delay the transportation until season 7 is done airing…

Regretting the fact that I won’t be able to watch it, I kneel awkwardly, copying what the characters of GoT did, since I’m not used to it and Graziel followed me hurriedly bumping her knee hard on the floor which produces a loud sound. She then groans quietly and it seems it hurts, no it really hurts. I take a glimpse on the throne and the little sister (temp) is chuckling while the king and princess (temp) smiled, also the knight (temp) is looking at Graziel with warm eyes and the old man looking at her warmly.

“You don’t need to kneel if you’re not accustomed to it okay?”

The king kindly said but never the less I’ll keep kneeling until he permitted us to stand.

“It would be rude to you your grace.”

Actually, I know that what he said about not kneeling when we’re not accustomed to it can be taken as permission but I am pretty nervous right now and I don’t want to look at them directly.

“Stand”

The king said with a commanding tone. His voice carried a mysterious charm which will make do what he said.

I stand upright immediately while Graziel stands up timidly. She leaned her weigh to one side since her knee seems to hurt a lot.

“There’s no need to be tense around us. Just like you, we are someone from Earth too. May I ask what country do you belong?”

The knight (temp) asked us while looking at us nostalgically. Are transported people from Earth a common thing in this world?

“We are from Republic of the Philippines”

The king’s eyes and knight (temp) got bigger and it seems that they are quite interested at us now.

“We are also from that country. Uhmmm…”

“Jack Anderson”

“A half huh… Jack, how old are you?”

“I’m 21 years old Sir…?”

“My name is Percival Perez in Earth but here I am known as Percival Pendragon. Well, I suppose I am a knight but you can call me Tito since we came from the same country and you can call him Lolo”

[note: Tito = uncle, Lolo = grandfather]

Tito Percival rudely pointed at the king using his thumb. I don’t know if he have too much guts or what but I think you will be executed if you’re conduct was rude against the royal blood! Is he not afraid to die?!

“Hooo… Is that how you treat your king?”

See! The king becomes enraged! What are going to do Tito Percival?!

“H-hey… Is it just me or the atmosphere looks tense?”

I look at Graziel who tugged my clothes from my side.

“Yeah… After all, Tito Percival did a rude remark on the king.”

“Percival? Do you know his last name? He seems familiar to me”

“He said that in this world his last name is Pendragon and in Earth it was Perez…”

Wait… His last name is Perez and if I look closely he resembles Jasper a lot so maybe… No, no it can’t be… Graziel is also pondering about it and she frowns as if there’s something isn’t right on her conclusion.

The king and Tito Percival glare at each other. No words come out from their mouth but you can feel the intense tension between them. I would like to ask some question to Tito Percival but I’m scared that if I interrupt them their anger will be directed to me.

I look around the throne to see if there’s someone who’s willing to stop their tension. The princess (temp) is just smiling looking alternately at the King and Tito Percival, the little sister (temp) is looking at us curiously while the old man (temp) looks at the two, the king and Tito Percival, with a look saying “Not again…” Perhaps this is normal exchange for the two of them? Maybe they are close enough to be rude with each other but I think that those things should be done in private not right now since the tension between two of them will affect their surroundings.

“Please stop it both of you. We know that you’re close enough to these banters but please do think about your surroundings, look both of them are terrified already.”

The princess (temp) finally stops the two and both of them turn to look at us. They both have relaxed expression and the tension from before was not here anymore as if it’s not there in the first place.

“Sorry about that. But it’s true you know? Calling her Lolo fits his actual age after all, you guys seem to be at the same age as my son in Earth and this guy was already old when I was a teenager back then.”

It seems that Tito Percival didn’t want to stop but the king just sighed and said.

“If we combine my age in Earth and here I’ll definitely enter the category of grandparents but in this word I’m still on my 30’s so calling me Lolo is inappropriate.”

“Hahaha it sure does.”

“Ahemm… I am the queen of this kingdom, Lilianne Lucid Sevir and this is my daughter Althea Lucid Sevir.”

The queen coughs and proceeded to introduces herself, the queen former princess (temp), and her daughter, the princess former little sister (temp). I am surprised by her being the queen since she looks like she’s in her early 20’s and her daughter looks like her little sister.

“Now then, the reason we summoned you is because of an oracle saying that the evil sleeping in the north will once more awakens and we can’t defeat it with our current power even if all races forms an alliance with each other. Sadly we need your power so please forgive us for selfishly transporting you here.”

The queen explained the reason why we are summoned with the king and Tito Percival’s banters as background music.

“We know milady. The Goddess of Prosperity Mas already give us about explanation on what is happening on this world. We have approximately a year before that evil awakens so we have time to prepare.”

I tell them the approximate time we have before the evil awakens since it seems that they don’t know when would it woke up. I think in 1 year, I’ll gather different experiences needed to fight that evil. Now that I think about it, this kind of stories where heroes beat the evil one is pretty cliché to entertainment industry on Earth.

“I see. Let me ask both of you. Do you have any combat experience?”

The queen is still the one who’s asking question since the king and Tito Percival still continues to argue and somehow the old man (temp) got dragged on it. I don’t know when he got dragged by the two since I am talking with the queen.

I looked at Graziel and she shook her head so I said that we don’t have any experience. I don’t know if fist fight can be considered as combat experience since it’s mostly one on one so I didn’t said that I have.

“I see. I think we need someone to teach you about fighting. I know that it will be hard and as early as now I am sorry for dragging you in our fight. I know that it will not be a good memory since this is a war for survival and you’ll need to take lives of someone but I’ll promise that we will support you financially, emotionally, and physically.”

“Thank you for your kindness milady.”

“And also can you tell us your status?”

Status? What’s that? Something like relationship status or civil status perhaps?

“You don’t know how to summon your status? Well, simply say the words ‘Character Information’ and it will show you your current status.”

Seeing us confused by the word status, the queen teaches us how to summon our status. We both said ‘Character Information’ and a window-like thing appeared in front of me.

“So this is my status huh…”

I honestly don’t know if my status is good or bad since I never played computer games before and the only thing I played are casual mobile games such as Piano tiles, candy crush, and 2048.

“Please do tell us your ‘status points’ since it would be important for us to know about it. This way we can help you more efficiently and this will also let us know what kind of role you will have in the upcoming battle.”

So it’s like that. I wonder if they can see my information since it’s color is slightly transparent. Well, even if they can they won’t be able to read it clearly since there is a distance between us and them.

“Hmmm… For strength, agility, dexterity, and vitality all of them are 200 for intelligence it’s 100 and wisdom is 20”

I wonder what the difference between intelligence and wisdom is since I don’t really know about these stuffs I want to learn what does these thing does.

“As for me for strength, agility, dexterity, and vitality all of them are 50 but for intelligence and wisdom they are both 300.”

I look at Graziel as I hear her information. Honestly I don’t understand it as to why my weakest status is her strongest while my strongest is her lowest. I always thought that heroes supposed to be superhuman existences.

“As expected of heroes, they are all high.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes, normally all of their status range from 8-10, 9-13 if you’re lucky enough, at level 1.”

Okay? It means that we are out of the norm and comparing to normal people we can be considered as superhuman.

“It seems that Jack Anderson is fitted for front line while the girl is fitted for the back line. Anyways, I presume that we already talk about the important matters so you can rest now. Please escort them to their chambers. We will call you if these three (pointing at the king, Tito Percival, and the prime minister) finishes their business.”

“Thank you milady.”

After that, we get out of the room while the voices of three people becomes louder and louder. You’ll hear occasional laughter and some vexed tone. Never the less, I think it’s a good kingdom, though the king is like that, and I want to protect it. I don’t know how strong the one they call evil but since we are the heroes, it will turn out fine! My blood is boiling due to the excitement since I never thought that I’ll have this chance to be someone who they call hero and as a bonus it’s a world that has the same ambiance of GoT! I wonder if dragons exist in this world. I would like to have a Podrick!
