"Huh?"
I woke when my consciousness floated up from the darkness and into the light.I now felt that light feeling of ascension, then felt my vague sense of self rapidly return to a single object. I could once more feel the weight of my body.
“…Kh.”
When I tried to move my body I felt sudden pain running through back of my spine, I opened my eyes.The only coloration is blurry vision could pick up was brightness and I was lying down. And trying to analyze the situation. I went to cafeteria to buy my lunch and then some kind light of sucked me then...
“Where am-…?”
A female voice cut me off.
“Where is this place?.”
I moved only my eyes to look toward the owner of that voice.It was a Girl who introduced herseff as shizuka on my first day of school. Her hair was tied back in a bun and her face looked like she was in some shock with teary eye's.
"Is this some kind of prank?"
"Yes! You may be right Ryota this is some kind of prank which was played our seniors..hahah"
I looked towards the second voice
and there were two boys who were saying about their own delusions, Without saying anything I turned my gaze towards other sides there were many other students who were having there own thoughts about this abnormal situation.
I tried to count them in mind there were more than 200 people in this unknown place and looked at the surroundings which looked like some old runes.
"Hey! Lets walk outside and see what is happening" said another person who regained his senses and was trying to analyze the situation same as me.
"ah"
"Yes! lets do that everyone....."
One by one, the students who were lost in their own thoughts regained their senses and tried to walk outside these old rune's however they suddenly heard some voices coming towards them.
I regained my senses and started to look at the source , there were few men who were wearing Armor's and some weapons but my eyes fixed on the right side of those men.There were few other people whose attire differ them. They were covered in black robes like some kind of mages in Animes and Mangas and holding some book in each hand they were scattered in different direction like some pentagram.
I looked at my feet there was some kind of diagrams , They resembled what magic circles or alchemic formulas may look like in a fantasy setting. It was that sort of vibe which they gave off.
"Where is this place?" I asked one of the robed men.
"Ooh, Please brave saviours! Please
somehow save this world!"
""""WHAT!?"""""
All of us said unanimously.
"What did you mean by that?"
What was with this cliché line? I felt that I should have not asked them. but due to this unknown situation I should ask about more details.
"What do mean by that can you explain in details.."
I asked him ofcourse Its not that that I care about them . Its best to have more info before reaching the conclusion.
"To put it simply, due to various
circumstances, we were able to summon
you brave saviours through an ancient
spell."
"Summoned."
Mhmm. That's the word. The chance of a
shocking revelation for this situation was
oddly high. But for now, we'll keep
listening to their story to see what it has
to offer.
"This world is currently facing a global
state of crisis. Brave Ones, please lend us
your might."
One of the robed man bowed deeply to us while saying so.
"Well... This is a bit sudden--"
"Wh-what are you saying you freaks?."
"Is this some kind of film shooting?"
"Did he just said save the world?
"Oh! looks like we can become some heroes.."
While I was engrossed with their story,
the other students interrupted me midway.
Your attitudes are pretty cliché, huh? But
dudes, this is the part where you need to
hear them out.
"Aren't you people guilty over summoning us?"
The old man looked at me with some guilt in his eyes but for some reason his eyes were not sincere, I have seen those eyes many times during childhood.
(So this shady looking guys dont feel any guilt ahh..lets play their game for now)
The old man averted his gaze to other students and said:-
"Well first, I'd like you all to have an
audience with the king. We can discuss
your reward then."
The representative of the robed men
opened the heavy looking door to guide
us through.
"...Guess it can't be helped."
"Right."
"Lets hear what this old man has say...."
I observed their expressions carefully when the old man in robe said about rewards and King the atmosphere changed suddendly.
I hastily trailed behind them. We left the dark room and passed through a corridor made out of stone.
...I wonder why? Was it due to my limited
vocabulary that the atmosphere here
could only be described as '--WoW--'?
Our breathes were taken away as we took
a peek at the scene outside of the
window.
Spanning off into the horizon, a town
much like one from some novels could be seen.
All too mesmerized by the townscape laid
before us, we walked down the corridor
and reached the audience chamber in no
time flat.
"Hou, are these fellows the Saviours from another world?"
On the throne in the audience chamber
sat a prideful grandpa who began
evaluating us when we arrived.
For some reason, I didn’t get a good
impression of him...
I personally do not fancy the act of licking
other person's boots.
"I am the king of this country, Augestine.
The thirty-second ruler of Agnes.
Brave ones, please raise your heads."
I ignored him and started to look at the surroundings, Everything felt so real I was not convinced Until now , But after seeing the Town and the surroundings It looks like this is some another world.
"Its Nice to meet you too your Majesty!!"
I looked at the person who said these words , He was the student council president Otome Narubi. I didn't quite liked this guy.
"Now then, let me explain our situation.
This country, and moreover, this whole
world is facing its demise."
To summarize the king's story.
Currently, This world is assaulted by Monsters or beasts from another world which will one day turn everything to ruin. To save the world, We must find the source and stop their Invading.A dimension crack appeared in this country, Melromarc, where hideous and brutal demons crept out in large quantities.
Reading on Amazon or a pirate site? This novel is from Royal Road. Support the author by reading it there.
Other adventurers and knights barely
managed to repel them. However, the next
incoming wave would be even more
powerful.
It seemed like the worst case scenario was
about to occur.
At this rate, the disaster won't be
repelled.
That was the basic outline of their
situation.
"I understand your dilemma. But why did you summoned us, We are just normal High School Students"
"Yes! Yes! Why did you summoned us"
"Can you please explain us why us?"
( This Guys....)
After hearing their questions the kimg sighed and told them that the Anicient ritual summons the people who have high aptitude in Magic and Intilegience.
And according to their High Priest the people who were summoned from another world can save this world.
"Oh!!!!!"
"Looks like their is no other chouce we will help to save this world"
Everyone had a big smile on their faces hearing that they must have high aptitude and other crap but arent they jumping the gun too sooner.
"Certainly, we have no obligation to help
you. In the end it'll just be fruitless labor
for us. And once peace comes, you guys
will just go 'sayonara' as if nothing
happened. So to prevent such a sad
outcome from occurring, I'd like to hear
some form of insurance from you. Surely
you have something to present us, right?"
Again this Student Council Idiots , First President and Now Treasure , his eyes were demanding sone rewards and hearing this other students looked towards the king.
"Fumu..."
The king sent his vassal a glance.
"Of course, we planned on rewarding the
Brave Ones fully for their efforts."
"I had already made arrangements to aid
your cause with money. And surely, since
the Brave Heroes will be protecting our
world, I have already prepared a fitting
place for you Brave Ones to rest."
"Eh~ ... Those are all well and good
promises then."
"Don't think that we can be tamed with
only this much though. You'll have to
continue giving your cooperation if you
don't want us to turn rogue."
"... That's right."
"Righto~"
(These Student Council Idots are good With Negotiations But arent they missing something , This is not some kind of school )
This guys for some reason I felt like I Should beat the crap out them but first
"That is one hell of a convenient story."
"... Even if that is the case, and this isn't
me being selfish or anything, but if this
world is going into ruin then let it be
destroyed. This matter doesn't even
concern me." I said to the King.
Suddenly Atmosphere changed, Everyone were staring at me with dumfolded eyes, Some were "aww" like expressions on their faces . The Student Council were looking at me like I did something wrong.
(ara...whats wrong why are guys looking at me like that. When did I said I will help you guys, Isn't that good, one should share his own opinion.)
"This is a god given opportunity but I have to decline this offer , Sorry but can you send me back I have something Important work to do.."
The Vein appeared on the students forehead for some reason but I ignored them I kept on continuing..
"I kept on hearing your crap until now for my personal reasons but there is big hole in offer"
---What is this guy saying?
---Isn't he the new transfer student from yesterday.
---Ah..Yes! but why does he want to leave, Isn't this good we can become heroes by saving the world.
---There are many rewards directly from the King.
Shinji was hearing all kind of crap but decided to ignore them and faced towards the king.
The King was looking at like he was annoyed by his presence but as expected of a ruler he regained his senses and said.
"Well then, Young Saviour. Let us hear that hole which you are talking about"
Shinji who was looking at the King turned his gaze towards the students who were dreaming about becoming heroes by saving this world and said__
"You guys are the most big idiots I have ever seen until now.."
By hearing the term 'Idiot' from shinji's mouth everyone turned their gazes to him in anger but he ignored and said__
[ "You guys must be thinking that right by saving this world you can become heroes but is there any fucking use of being hero.
Firstly you guys are not clearly thinking about your position.
'I will help this world' which idiot said this I dont care but are you some kind of super saiyan who will save this world with your super powers.
Secondly This Idiots from student council :-
"We want some rewards" are you some kind of fucking mercenary who wants be hired for some rewards acting like some you did some great job in dealing with negotiations for gods sake this not your fucking high school.
"Lastly:- Did you guys even know whom you are going to deal with, Is there any way to go back to our world or did you guys even gave a thought about what will happen If we died during battle, Dont you have your parents worrying about you.
This is not your some fantasy novel , Anime , Manga or Game where you will revieved agaib and again after dying" ]
(Looks like its time to wake up from this dream ....)
Everyone felt silent after hearing the details from Shinji , Most of them did not even gave a thought about it.
Even the Student Council Members fell silent and looked at each other.
Many of them regained their senses and started to panic after hearing that they may die.
"So what do want us to do now shinji-kun.."
"Yes ! He is right this place is not good , we should return home.."
one after one students started to panic then they heard
--Silence--
Eveyone stopped their movements and looked at source of the voice it was none than Shinji who was annoyed by their chit-chats.
"I understood ! Please Stop its annoying. And sorry for calling you Idiots but its true that you are idiots ,
lets forget the past now and heads towards the future")
Shinji turned his gaze towards the King who looked anaxious and said in a bitter smile.
"So your heard our conversation Old Man , now send us back to our world"
Everyone were looking at King including Shinji but soon their hope shatters when the king decides to answer them back with few words..
"Sorry but I cant.."
