Awaken to the brightness, I am confused as to where I am, but I notice the place I am standing is a vast white space as far as the eye can see. As I regain my composure and look around, it seems there are also many people got dragged into this unusual space. I starts to observe the surrounding and some familiar faces could be seen, they are the passengers and crew member on the plane with me.
"Welcome, you unfortunate souls, to my realm." (Unknown voice)
A powerful voice resounds in through the vast space. Everyone starts looking to the voice from the distance; a giant human-shaped white mass radiating with briliant light standing before us.
"You mortals must be confused because you all should have perished together in that accident. We are sure you mortals have many questions, however; you mortals should form groups before we continue to convey our purpose for this audience." (White mass)
As though they are under a spell, people start moving in all direction; groups, big and small, are gradually formed as they get to know one another. However, there are also exception; many individuals also stay outside of the circles, myself included. Since I am not particularly social with strangers, I simply stand idly by and observed the situation unfolded.
"Uhm... Good. Now you mortals may have guessed we are an entity outside of your feeble understanding; we are whom you mortals worship as God... As for the purpose of this audience, you mortals were simply chosen out of convenience to be summoned as heroes to another world ruled by enities similar to us." (God)
A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
When God pauses a little, I could hear some murmurs from behind. A group of unusually excited high school students are engaging in heated conversation. This event must fantasy realized for these adolescent boys.
"However, not all can be summoned; there already are limited amount for the summoning. Since the amount of groups have exceed the limit; we allow a lottery draw to determined the 7 groups to be summoned as heroes. For the rest, we will have you await your fate." (God)
As God speak, a golden box appear in front of the groups together with several tickets floating besides it.
"As you mortals have seen, the tickets are for writing name of the representative of each group; and then put inside this drawing box. The 7 drawn tickets will be summoned to the other world."
As groups start to choose their leader, God turns to singled out people.
"For you mortals danced in solitary, your opprtunities are not subpar to the crowd; you have the chance to be reincarnated as new beings shredded from your former hollow shell. You mortals each are to be rewarded an ability of choice and one item. They can be from your imagination or of other's creation such as novels, comics, movies; of course, there are also few restrictions wit addition to a price you mortals must pay. As we are benevolent and wise, we only require your memories; it is but an insignificant sacrifice for such immense power."
When I think about the power I have dreamt of, I can't help feeling excited since I am a genuine manga enthusiast. I especially like fire ability users; when I imagine myself wielding those power, I could see how cool I will looks. Suddenly my vision darkens.
