Waking up in a dense forest, Yukihiro tough.

"Haah. This is not what I thought it would be."

Yukihiro sighed, why it must be him? There are billions of people on Earth, but it must be him. His luck have been very bad his entire life, but now it reached it's peak, of bad luck, off course.

"What do I do, now? Get stronger? How? It's not like I'm overpowered like other MCs…And my power...Power Keeper? WTF is this? Can I take the enemy's ultra beam, make it turn around and hit him instead?"

Yukihiro was depressed, who wouldn't be in a situation like this?

"Whatever, I need to think in a positive way. I'm in an another world! This is a new life!..."

Suddenly, while Yukihiro was shouting positive thoughts, the bush beside him moved.

"A monster?!"

Yukihiro became alerted, he positioned himself in a fight style, like in the movies.

However, nothing happened. Yukihiro then moved closer towards the bush. Afraid that something might happen, he got a fallen branch int he road and hit the bush. And again, nothing happened.

"There's nothing? It must be some wild animal..."

He started to walk when he concluded that there was nothing.

"Think positive, think positive. I need to find Dylan and the others, something might have happened to them."

Suddenly, he heard a cry coming form the bush. He positioned himself again, and waited, when the second cry was heard.

"Ohh, come on! Get out! I know that you are there!"

Then he saw something that made him really surprised. This was the first thing that made him really surprised after he came to this world.

"A...dragon?"

With wide eyes, he distanced himself from the monster. He then tried to speak with the dragon.

"I can speak with elves, so I probably can speak with dragons too, right?"

"He-hey, dragon. You understand me? Do-you-un-ders-tand-me?"

"Kuoohhh!"

"I guess not…Wait, you are injured, your wing…"

Yukihiro became surprised, one of the dragon's wing was broken off. Cruel, this was cruel.

He walked towards the dragon, fearless because the dragon couldn't move by himself and was injured. The dragon was not that big, around seven meters in length and two in height. In novels, it should be a baby dragon, no?

"You really can't speak? You could tell me you last wish."

The wing was not the only wound on the dragon, in it's belly, was a huge hole, it would die soon.

"Human, you don't have the rights to talk to me..."

"So you could talk..."

"Your race hunts mine..."

"Are you ignoring me?"

"Your people eats mine..."

"You are really ignoring me..."

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

"I wont kill you, but if you get close to my body after I die, I will curse you!"

"Curse? Alright, I will be going right now!"

After this, the dragon and the human didn't talk anymore. Yukihiro pretended to go away, but soon he came again and spoke.

"Hey, you will die right? I am very sorry about this, but I'm lost here, can you tell me some directions?"

"..."

The dragon became speechless.

"Did you see some elves walking around here? Four elves, actually."

"..."

"They are in danger, can you tell me, please?"

"..."

"..."

...

After trying to talk with the dragon and failing, disappointment filled his face, he then tried to find them on his own, but he discovered that every time he ended in the same place, with the dragon.

"You really can't help me?"

"..."

"Refuses to speak? I will come closer if you don't help me."

"..."

Yukihiro was infuriated, he felt some pity the first time he saw the dragon, but now, things were different.

As Yukihiro was enraged, he needed to eat too, it has been twelve hours since he came to this world, it would be a surprise if he wasn't hungry.

Yukihiro got some fruits in the time he was walking in a loop. He started to eat them in front of the dragon, while the dragon was looking at him in a cold glance.

"Want some? Just help me out and I can give you some fruits..."

"Idiot."

"Ah? You are idiot, I'm giving you food, and you curse at me?"

"Poisonous."

"Wha..."

The moment the dragon said that the fruits were poisonous, he really started to feel something strange.

"Argh, why didn't you tell me earlier?!"

"No obligation."

"Kuuhh."

He felt his lungs burning, he became panicked. While he was in this way, the corner of the dragon's mouth rose, almost laughing.

"What are you fucking laughing for?!"

"Your stupidity."

"Tch. You will die soon too, heh..."

While cursing the dragon, he slowly lost consciousness.

...

Yukihiro saw himself running, he was running with his life on the line, shouting unknown words, carrying a thin but magnificent sword, with an incredible armor. He was amazing, he thought.

"Is this a dream? Or maybe…the future? So cool!"

But as he was seeing the battle between him and the others, he didn't saw one thing, his friends, his companions, or whatever you can call. A hero like him, without anyone by his side. A loner's path.

"Is this a dream? It must be! A hero need the heroine, his mage, his tank, like in the RPGs! Fuck this! I will walk my own path. There's no right way in this world!"

Angrily shouting, he didn't realized that he was not in a dream anymore, and the dragon saw everything.

"Hehe."

The dragon left some laugh when Yukihiro woke up.

"Why? Why it must be like this?"

The fruit's poison was still in effect.

After some time, he discovered that everything was normal again.

"My..future is horrible..."

"Hehehe."

"Okay, please help me, so that I can help you heal your injuries."

"How can you help me? I'm dying already."

"I don't know, you can ask me anything, I want to get out of here quickly..."

"You can't help, and want something from me? Haha..."

"Anything, I will do anything, so please tell me how I can be out of here."

"I don't want anything from you, despicable human."

"I can bring help from outside, is not this enough?"

"Help from the ones that want to kill me? Never."

"I don't want to kill you. Actually, I'm not from this world, someone sent me here to 'save' this world, but I don't even know from where I start..."

"Ohh, are you saying that you are a Chosen? Hehe, stop lying, why a Chosen would come to a place like this? Why are you not in the Five Great Empires? You think I would believe you? Haha, show me your Natural Energy then, oh Chosen one, hehehe."

"Natural Energy? I heard this before, how can I control this Natural Energy?"

"See? You're obviously not a Chosen-"

"Chosen this, Chosen that, just tell me how can I control it!"

"Tch, you are a arrogant one, huh?"

"Me? Arrogant? Hmph, just show me how I can control it."

"You will not learn this quickly, but just to see you make fun of yourself, I will teach you..."

"Hallelujah..."

After the sarcastic 'hallelujah' from Yukihiro, the dragon made a dumb face and started teaching Yukihiro how to make the energy flow in his body. Everyone knows how to flow energy, but that's just 'energy', it's not Natural Energy. Natural Energy comes from the earth, just as the name says, it's natural. Normal people can control simple energy, that comes from the owner body. Chosen can control the energy from the air, earth, fire, water, metal and thunder.

After the dragon's instructions, Yukihiro tried to follow the instructions, but he failed. And not just once, he failed tens of times before the dragon made a snort.

"Just accept your fate, you will never be able to-"

Just as the dragon was about to say something, Yukihiro's body started to emit a red aura.

"This…You are really a Chosen? And of the fire element..."

The dragon was surprised, one need to know that all the dragons are naturally 'Chosen', they can control the Natural Energy since the beginning. But the dragon was surprised because of another thing, he emitting fire aura, he can control the fire element.

"You being able to control the fire element is good, you really can help..."

"Fire? Because it's red? But…some time ago, I release a green aura..."

Now the dragon became surprised. He could control two elements, how was this not surprising?

"Earth and fire...You are a Rank Five Chosen?"

"How could I know? I told you before, I'm not from this world."

"So, you were not lying?"
