I am now trapped in this world. I don't even know where I am.

"Sigh, I need to read the book that he gave me. I don't like adventures. Access Book." I muttered.

After I mutter those words, an interface has appeared.

The interface color is Light Blue, and at the top, there was a sentence said 'Please Pick A Book". Down that sentence, there was a list of books. The only thing I have was the 'Rules', I believe it's the one that the man gave me. I can pick a book by putting it at my thoughts. I picked the book, and the interface is now full of words.

I read some of it, and I think I understand most of it.

I can mutter 'User Preferences', and it will bring the interface of myself. I can see my name, my gender, my age, and my skills. I can also see my Swordsman Abilities.

"Wha? Wait…" I muttered, with a surprised expression.

I can only learn skills when I am exploring, but I haven't made progress yet, but I saw 5 skills in the interface already. The number of skills you can only have is 10.

My current 5 skills were called 'See-Through', 'Predict-Attacks', 'Learn-Attacks', 'Restoration', and 'Luck'.

Reading them, I can already know what it does but I am not gonna bother that because I have a more important thing to do.

I need to be a Fighter. I need to go to the village.

"But I don't know where it is!" I screamed.

As I screamed loud, I saw a big chicken-like coming to me. There are 5 of them, and they are charging into me.

"What the…" I muttered.

I thought it was harmless so I just stayed there but when that big chicken-like approached me, he just stayed there and preparing to duck his neck. His mouth is big, and it's about to hit me.

Before his sharp big mouth is about to hit me, I panicked, and my face went pale. My shoulders were stiffened, and my legs are shaking.

I don't know what to do, I don't even have a sword to use.

While I was thinking about what am I going to do, I heard footsteps behind me. Before I turn around, she shouts.

"Get away from there! Leave that 5 to me!" She shouted as if breaking my thoughts.

I run away from that and took a good distance from there.

That girl was cute, she has blonde and long hair, she got blue eyes, she has armor like a knight would have, and have a bow in her hand.

I just watch it from there and I looked impressed by her. She's drawing her bow backward and uses a skill. I don't know what is that skill but from my point of view, it looks like a buff skill. She takes down all of the big chicken-like beings.

She was sweating so much, and I could not say a thing. She is very good at using a bow.

After killing all 5 of them she was walking towards me.

She approached me as she creates a conversation.

"Are you okay? Fu… What are you doing here?" She asked with a soft voice.

"Yes. Well, it's kind of hard to explain, but thank you very much." I bowed my head, to show my gratitude.

"I-It's okay it doesn't matter! Please don't bow your head." She said, as her voice stiffened.

"Y-Yes"

"I think I know the clothes you're wearing… You're from earth too, right?"

That word 'too' made me feel like I am not alone in this world.

"Yes, I have met a man, and he said that we need to win against the Dark Side, right? That word 'too', isn't that mean you are too?"

"Yes, I am from Earth, and I've met that man too, and said the same thing. I've been here 2 months ago. I am from that High School too, and I am at Archery Club."

"So that's why your Archery Skills are great. I have just arrived here an hour ago, but I don't know where to go."

"So you've just arrived here, huh? Well, if you want, do you want me to accompany you to the village?"

"Of course, I would like to, Thank you very much"

Come to think of it, we haven't introduced ourselves yet. Did she just forgot it or did she not want to say her name?

"Oh yeah, we haven't introduced ourselves, did we? I am Miyashiro Mizuki. Nice to meet you." She introduced herself as if breaking my thoughts.

"I-I am Morishige Yoshiyuki. Nice to meet you, Miyashiro-san" I said.

"Just call me Mizuki, without honorifics. I am gonna call you Yoshiyuki too."

Calling her by her first name even though we have just met? But I haven't called a girl with a first name too. I am too embarrassed about this.

"Y-Yes, Nice to meet you, M-Mizuki." I said, and she returned me a cheerful smile.

Part 2

As I followed her, she began to explain.

"As I said earlier, I've been here 2 months ago, right? I've become a knight 1 month ago, so I can easily go to frontlines. Before being a knight, I am a Quest Hunter."

"Do you enjoy being a knight."

"Yeah, pretty much. I have my 2 friends working with me."

"Is that '2 friends' of yours are from earth too?"

"Yeah, it's just a coincidence that my 2 friends from the earth will be also here."

Seeing her, she still has a smile on her face, and a cheerful expression.

Did you know this text is from a different site? Read the official version to support the creator.

"Why are you here anyway? I-I am not saying that you shouldn't be here but you're a knight, right? Why are you in such a place?"

"A-About that…" She said with a stiffened voice.

"I just kind of sense that there are a people in here, so I came here. This place is only for Quest Hunter, but many of them became knights, and no one has accepted any Quest today."

"By the way, what are those beings that attacked me earlier?" I said with a confused expression.

"Ah, those things… They are called 'Hiyoko'. If you kill them, you can sell them, or you can cook them. We already have many stocks in the village so no one has gone to a Quest to kill them."

"Eh… Then where did the 'Hiyoko' goes, when you killed them. I don't see it anywhere." I tilted my head, with a confused expression.

"It goes to my 'Inventory' Skill. I think most of the people in the village have that skill. If you want, I can teach you where to get it."

That's too much help. I want to have it but I still need to prioritize the most important thing.

"Thank you very much, but I feel like leveling up today. I don't have any money to use, and home to live here, so I think I am going to be a Quest Hunter."

If I don't have money, I won't get a home to live in.

"I-Is that so…? Um…"

She paused for a second, her face is turning red.

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

"D-Do you want to stay in our home for today? Don't misunderstand, I am only doing this because you're from earth too."

"Eh? Thank you, but that's a bit too much. We've just met today, and you're already trusting me."

That's true. It means that way.

She's already trusting a stranger, she has met. Also, inviting to her house, and sleep there?

"You got a point, but I feel like I trust you more. If that is your choice then, I have no right to interfere.

Part 3

We've arrived at the entrance to the village.

There are knights in the entrance, and guarding the village.

I've been told that this village wall is a circle, and there are 4 entrances.

One knight has approached us and spoke up.

"May I have a look at your 'Preferences'?" He said.

I can see his face, black hair, and his sword is at his waist.

As I mutter 'User Preferences', an interface shows up, and I use my finger to swipe. As I swipe the interface, the interface disappeared, and it appeared at the knight in front of me.

My skills won't show up when I show it to someone I don't trust. So this knight in front of me can only look at my name, age, title, and where I live.

"Morishige Yoshiyuki? Are you a new residence here? Are you a Dark Side spy?" He asked for a scary-looking face.

"Yes. I brought him here. Got a problem with that?" Mizuki besides me spoke up.

"Ah. No, I am just a bit carried away. You can come in now."

Just what is her position here? Some of the knights here are terrified by her.

Just by looking at her, you can see her cute face, blonde and long hair, blue eyes, and white teeth. I bet at our school, she is popular. Just why is a cute girl helping me anyway? Every boy will get in love with her if she just looks at them. But, I am not a person that will fall for her easily. I can imagine her being the whole class's attention.

We've entered the village, and the knights seem terrified.

I can see her cheerful smile while walking. I can see some people will look at us, I can imagine them saying 'Oh look at that girl over there! She's so cute!', but that didn't happen.

While walking, I look at the people here in this village.

"There are quite many people here," I muttered, with a low voice that only me can hear.

"Where are we going, by the way?" I asked with a confused expression.

"We are going to the middle of this village, It was called 'Village Office'. You will sign a contract that you'll live here in the village."

We continued to walk, and as we are near the 'Village Office', I can see a lot of people were surrounding a man.

"Who's that man?" I asked Mizuki, I tilted my head as if I am confused.

"That is Kida Mamoru. That is my classmate, and he is popular in our class, and popular in other classes or years." She said, and her smile disappeared.

"Is that so? Why is he surrounded by many people?"

"Because he is the strongest knight here in this village. His weapon is a sword, not a normal sword but a 'Thunder Sword'. If he just slashes his sword towards an enemy, his sword will produce a thunder, and the thunder will move towards the nearby enemy, if the thunder reaches the enemy, it will knock the enemy backward."

I can see that his sword is shining, and when you look at it, it looks like a normal sword, but the color of the grip of the sword is orange.

We walked past them, and we've arrived at the 'Village Office'.

I open the door and walked inside with Mizuki. We walked at the man who is sitting on a chair, and in front of him is a desk.

Mizuki took care of the explanation, and the man sitting in front of me just said 'Please sign this', handing out a ballpen to me, and I immediately take it and sign it.

We left the 'Village Office', and now I am an official resident here.

While walking 2 people approached us.

The one in the left has silver long hair, she's wearing a knight's armor-like Mizuki, and a sword beside her hip, I think this person is familiar… I think she is the Student Council President.

The one in the right has black long hair, she's wearing a knight's armor-like Mizuki as well, and a sword is also beside her hip, and this girl, she is also familiar too… I think she is the Student Council Vice President.

I wondered, that Mizuki is part of the Student Council too, or is it just they are friends?

While thinking about that, the President spoke up.

"Mizuki-chan! Where have you been? Ume-chan and I were looking for you! And who is this man?" She said with a disgusted face.

We exchange gazes, and she averts her gaze in just a second.

"Ah Ayame-chan, Ume-chan, this is Morishige Yoshiyuki. He is from earth too. Didn't I told you earlier, I sense a people there at the 'Grass Mountains'? He just got here in this world, an hour ago."

As she explained, the two we're looking at me with a suspicious look. Mizuki continued.

"Yoshiyuki-kun, this is Okazaki Ume-chan, and this is Yasutake Ayumi."

"Nice to meet you." I said.

"N-Nice to meet you." Okazaki-san replied back, with a flustered voice.

"I see… Then, what are you planning to do about this guy?"

I can sense a bit of Yasutake-san's fragrance. I heard about her in school sometimes. She passed all the exams with a high score. Every man in our school might be in love with her. I heard that she rejected over 20 guys before. That's a bit cruel I think.

Her appearance right now as she is wearing a knight's armor-like Mizuki. That knight's armor is different from the entrance of this village.

Mizuki said that there are Knight Guilds. So every guild has unique color about their Knight's armor.

The One Besides her, the Vice President, is quiet til' now. I think she is a kuudere or something, or maybe it is. Her eyes are brownish-black, she is cute but she is not used to interacting with people.

Both of them are gazing at me suspiciously, but I avert my gaze to others. Mizuki spoke up.

"I am planning him to join our guild."

Both girls that are in front of me, widened their eyes.

"W-Wait wait wait! Don't just decide for me! You haven't said anything about that. Didn't I say earlier that I will become a Quest Hunter first?" I said as I panicked.

As a reply to the panicked excuse, Mizuki grins slightly.

"Huh? What do you mean? You have agreed earlier didn't you?" As she said that, she blinked her left eye.

I guess, I am just gonna play along, but this is too much of a help. This is also too sudden. The way of trusting me is not good. Is she like this in any other people? Does she treat other people like me?

"I-I guess…" I said.

The two girls in front of me, their eyes widened, and shouted 'Eh?' At the same time. Some of the people looked at them at the sudden shout.

"T-This guy, you just have met… And you're already inviting him to our guild? I can't accept this! He is just an ordinary guy, you can see other guys like him. You can just invite Kida-kun instead of him. Kida-kun is strong and handsome than him! What is this guy can do?"

She got some nerves to say that in front of me. It's rude to describe a human you have just met.

"That's rude Ayumi-chan! You're also in front of him, and you're saying that?" Mizuki said with an angry expression.

After she said what, Mizuki continued.

"Why don't you two have a duel?" She said with a grin.

I have been in a club when I am at middles school, and my grandfather sometimes taught me about using a sword, but when I enter high school, I lose interest in it. I don't even know if I am still good at it, but let's see about this test they meant.

Both of them agree, and I also agreed.

Part 4

We went to this duel room near the 'Village Office'. There are no people here because they are doing training to improve their skills.

Yoshiyuki and the rest of the girls enter the room.

First Match - Yoshiyuki vs Ayumi

Yoshiyuki stands at the right side, and Ayumi stands on the left side.

Ayumi still has her disgusted look on her face. Despite her cuteness and good looks, she is also good at being a swordsman.

Both of them are preparing for the duel. For Ume who is standing beside Mizuki, she is smiling as if nothing is happening. She often smiles even if she had many worries. Her friends say that she looks cuter when she smiles.

"3… 2… 1… Start!" Mizuki shouts.

The duel has started. They are both using bamboo instead of swords to avoid any injuries.

Yoshiyuki uses his skill called 'Predict-Attacks'. As he uses that skill, he automatically sees a red line. That red line is where the enemy will attack.

Ayumi as for her first attack, she slashes her sword and Yoshiyuki who's using a skill called 'Predict-Attacks' uses his sword to block it from her attacks. 'Predict-Attacks' will only last for one minute. They are crossing swords.

They walk backward as if charging again. He predicts her attacks using his eyes and uses his sword to block it again. As he blocks her sword, he quickly uses this chance to attack her. As he charges his sword towards Ayumi's neck, the winner has been decided.

"The winner is Yoshiyuki!" Mizuki said with a happy expression.

Yoshiyuki doesn't seem to be happy, perhaps his doubting because of Ayumi since to be not approved about this. He thought that it will be less troublesome if he just stays with Mizuki.

Mizuki seems to be impressed because of Yoshiyuki's skills. The same for Ume who is standing beside Mizuki. Ayumi who lost the duel is also impressed because she thought that it's a high level of skill. Ayumi then spoke up.

"Amazing… Even though you have just came here to this world a while ago, you're really good. You defeated the top 8 knight." She said while looking speechless. She then continued.

"Very well. I will welcome you to our guild, but don't ever lay your hands to our cute Mizuki-chan! How about you Ume-chan?" She then looks at Ume who is quietly listening.

"U-um, i-if Mizuki-chan, and Ayumi-chan agreed, t-then I agreed too." She said while looking stuttered.

"All right, you heard them Yoshiyuki, right?" I nodded, and she continued.

"Welcome to our guild, Yoshiyuki!"

"Thank you so much, Mizuki. Please treat me well-"

"Wait! What is this? First name basis? Didn't I tell you-" She stopped in the middle of her sentence.

"The Dark Side is approaching us! The distance is 25 meters from here! All of the knights please prepare to fight! They will get here in one hour!" A loud voice has been heard.

This loud voice is apparently the announcer. They put a speaker around the town, so every people live in this village will know what is happening.

This is the first fight for Yoshiyuki against the Dark Side. This is also the first fight for his other guild members.

Apparently, the only guild members are Mizuki, Ayumu, Ume, and Yoshiyuki himself.

Mizuki who is the Archery Master, Ayumi who is the Sword Master, Ume who is also a Sword Master, Yoshiyuki who is a newbie to the guild, and many knights, against the Dark Side.
