Okamura Hiiro calmly analyzed the scene in front of his eyes. There stood people he had never seen before.
He checked out the surroundings by looking around. The building was an atrium, so he could see outside well even while sitting.
The building was a tower or alike. The ceiling was supported by various pillars and had unfamiliar and strange drawings on it. It were mysterious drawings like the Egyptian mural art.
They were his classmates, but he had never talked to them. So, why was he here together with them?
Obviously foreign people, an unfamiliar scenery and a magic circle.
“I, I welcome you, Heroes!”
Up until now he had been at school. Skipping classes by sleeping the whole time on the rooftop, he had went back to the classroom to fetch his bag after school. There he found these four people here.
But then a bright light had suddenly gushed out from under his feet. All five present, Hiiro included, had frozen up on the spot from the all too sudden surprise.
The priests cheered merrily. Frolicking with “Yes!” and “It’s a success!”, they ignored the five of them, who were confused from the sudden happening.
On the other hand, the girl had long orange hair till her waist, which made her unthinkable as a Japanese. She was overall pretty, had big eyes and adorable facial features.
Same as the men, the girl showed a broad smile. Most likely the five of them were summoned unquestioning.
The others seemed to feel the same from being summoned as their faces showed that they couldn’t keep up with what was happening to them. Then one of them finally spoke.
The guy named Aoyama Taishi had bleached hair, but an earnest expression and gentle aura.
The girl lowered her head flustered on Taishi’s question.
She looked apologetic as she said that. On a closer look, she appeared rather pale. It was hard to tell from her smile earlier, but like the men, she was sweating on the face as well, probably exhausted from the summoning.
Taishi exchanged looks with the everyone except Hiiro and nodded affirming.
Seemingly the other four also kind of understood their situation.
Judging by the colour of the hair and eyes of the servants and the soldiers, stationed here and there, he once more concluded that this wasn’t Japan.
“Ohh, I appreciate your coming, Heroes.”
“I am sure you must be confused from the abrupt circumstances. But rest assured, I will properly explain it now.”
After saying that, he first started with a self-introduction.
The kingdom’s name was ≪Victorias≫ and the king unified the ‘Humas’ of ≪Edea≫, of this world here. The continent was partitioned and each race had its own country.
Likewise, the ‘Evila’, commonly known as demi-humans, were a race of ‘Demons’ and ‘Ghosts’ and lived in ≪Xaoc≫, the country of demons.
And in front of them sat Rudolph van Strauss Arcliam, the unity king of ≪Victorias≫.
‘Humas’, ‘Gabranth’ and ‘Evila’. Between these three races currently existed a tension like never before.
He seemed to think that only his race was suited to rule over a united ≪Edea≫ with their superior strength. So he tried to make a world solely for the ‘Evila’ by eliminating the ‘Humas’ and ‘Gabranth’.
Magic existed in this world and needless to say, the stronger the magic power, the stronger the magic. The ‘Humas’ had magic powers as well, but it was relatively low.
Even a high ranked adventurer from the adventure guild had to form a team to fight against the ‘Evila’.
But it was sealed for a reason. It showed that the summoning magic wasn’t omnipotent.
Essentially, the summoning magic could only be used by the royal family, but it didn’t mean that anyone could use it as long as they were royalty. Failed attempts always resulted in a mental breakdown from being exposed to such enormous magic power, or sometimes even in death.
So King Rudolph had an idea. He had a couple of daughters and let them use the summoning magic.
Heroes possessed an incredible magic power and could utilize physical abilities and magic unthinkable for ‘Humas’. Learning of this, Rudolph hardened his heart and asked his daughters. But the fourth and third princesses both failed and lost their lives from the ≪rebound≫.
Listening to the King’s explanation, Hiiro scowled on his insanity. But speaking up here would make complicate matters, so he kept his mouth shut.
She managed to avoid death, but was bedridden and still unconscious at this point. That left Lilith and Rudolph as the only ones, who could use the summoning magic. As they couldn’t afford any more failures, he decided to do it himself.
Lilith understood that and offered herself for the country. She was scared, very scared, but at this rate everything would vanish. If she was going to get killed anyway, she would rather choose the moment by her own will. She conducted the summoning ceremony with these feelings.
And then the five people appeared.
Aoyama Taishi nodded a few times while listening to the explanation.
Exactly. Five people were summoned this time. The king looked questioning at the nearby scholar. The scholar adjusted his glasses flustered.
“Mhm… Then we just have to find out. All of you, show me your abilities.”
“Mh? What is the matter? Do not tell me you are unable to show me your abilities?”
“Recite ≪Status≫ in your mind.”
