CHAPTER 1 – MULTIPLE STARTING LINES

PART 07

——

1-3 SUMMONED TO ANOTHER WORLD

In the blink of an eye, I felt the brightness quickly fade from behind my eyelids. The weird floating feeling was gone as well.

Does that mean the strange experience was over?

I slowly opened my eyes, terrified of what I would see… I wonder how many more shocks were installed for me today.

The scene before me had transformed from the futuristic interior of the spaceship to a large ancient-looking hall with stone walls.

The place was decorated with lots of grand furnishings, the floor carpeted with lush rugs. However, I seemed to be sitting at a place some distance from the floor.

Gathered before me were a bunch of old men, dressed in what seemed to be European-style clothes from the Middle Ages, staring at me in curiosity. Just what is happening here?

“Who is that?” “I’ve never seen anyone dressed that way before.”

“Did it work?” “It can’t be!”

“There’s no other explanation. It worked.” “But he’s just a youth.”

“I don’t think heroes have an age limit.” “So is he really our hero?”

“Hero…” “Hero…”

Just what are they whispering about? It sounded like dialogue one would usually find in a video game.

“Hero-sama!”

Just then, I heard a loud voice, before a young girl leaped into my arms. She looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years of age. Her tiny body was dressed in a robe, leaving nothing exposed. Her pale blonde hair glinted as she rubbed her head against my chest.

Suddenly, she raised her head, and the expression on her face gave me a shock.

Large drops of tears were falling from her eyes.

“Huh? W-why are you crying?”

“Hero-sama! Please tell us your name?”

Ignoring my question, the girl shot her own back at me in a bright voice.

I guess she was crying with joy, not sorrow, and heaved a sigh of relief.

“I’m Namidare Rekka… So, where is this place?” I answered her, posing a question at the same time.

“Namidare Rekka… So hero-sama’s name is Rekka-sama!”

“I’m… a hero?”

Hero? That sounds wonderful, but where exactly is this place!?

Just as I was about to panic, the cruel universe gave me an answer.

“Your Majesty! The hero’s name is Namidare Rekka-sama!”

“Huh? Your Majesty?”

I followed the girl’s gaze… and spotted him; an imperial man who looked every inch like royalty, seated on a magnificent throne. The crown on his head declared his status for all to see.

“Oh, yes… So the legend passed down in the royal family are true.”

The king looked impressed. I remained speechless, a sense of foreboding welling up within me.

“Welcome to our world, hero! Please help us defeat the Demon King terrorizing our kingdom of Abraham!”

…Oh, thanks for the finishing blow. I finally realized what was happening.

“I see. So I’m being dragged into another ‘story’ involving heroes and Demon Kings!”

I was already overwhelmed by wizards and aliens, but here I am, being summoned to another world. Just spare me already.

“Good luck.”

While I was on the verge of clutching my head out of despair, R, who was sitting cross-legged in midair, seemed perfectly calm, as if my predicament didn’t bother her the slightest bit.

But I couldn’t be calm. The hundreds of people gathered around the hall had frighteningly joyful expressions on their faces as they inched closer…closer…ever closer to me. I won’t be surprised if they were all itching to embrace me the way the girl had. Huge muscular guy over there, please don’t do it.

“Harissa, is our hero alright?”

The king aimed the question at the girl. He must have thought I was in shock, seeing as to how I had not said anything apart from introducing myself.

The girl, Harissa, gazed up at me through her lashes. She had beautiful cerulean blue eyes.

“Hero-sama. Please let me know if you need anything.”

“Anything? You mean, anything?”

“Yes!”

Then I had one request.

“I’m begging you…let me get some rest. Please.”
