Chapter 19: CHIYOKO HIIRO
PLACE: HERO ACADEMY
As the day waned, the students honed their magical prowess until their mana reserves dwindled. "That's sufficient for today," declared Instructor Zenith. "Tomorrow, we'll delve into spearmanship and swordsmanship as well."
With those words, the students dispersed, heading towards their dormitories amidst laughter and conversation.
Aoto and Scarlett began their trek back to their dorm room, the day's magical exercises still fresh in their minds.
"Using magic is remarkably easy. I even mastered shaping magical constructs," Scarlett boasted as she manipulated her mana to form a fiery horse, a ring of flames, and arrows in his hands.
Impressed by Scarlett's control, Aoto remarked, "You've certainly learned a lot. Are you sure you don't have a talent for any specific element?"
As they strolled, someone approached them, interrupting their path.
"You're quite talented, Nova-san," Chiyoko Hiiro exclaimed as he joined their conversation. "Were you shaping mana? I can do that too."
Chiyoko then mimicked Scarlett's actions, conjuring a fire horse, a circle of flames, and arrows in his hands in the same sequence.
"Isn't it amazing?" Chiyoko's voice brimmed with excitement.
Observing Chiyoko replicate his magic, Scarlett remained indifferent, thinking, 'He created the fire horse first, followed by the circle and arrows, just like I did. Well, I don't care what he's up to.'
"Haha... yeah, quite impressive, but we have some tasks to attend to. We should get going," Scarlett's responded, cutting their conversation short.
"If you say so, it must be important," Chiyoko's voice took on a tinge of disappointment as they departed.
While strolling, a thought struck Aoto's mind.
"Hey, Asta, that Chiyoko guy, isn't he a bit odd?" Aoto inquired.
"Yeah, I noticed too. He has a peculiar aura about him," Scarlett replied.
"Peculiar? Is he someone to be wary of?" Aoto asked, concern flickering in his eyes.
"Haha... no way. I think he's just a hardcore otaku, you know, the type who believes they're the protagonist of some anime or manga," Scarlett chuckled.
"Well, he does fit the bill of a typical protagonist. If he really is a hero, then I guess we'll have to play the role of villains," Aoto joked.
"Haha... enough with the jests, Aoto. Let's keep moving," Scarlett said, dismissing the topic as they continued on their way.
As Scarlett and Aoto made their way from the academy's grounds back to the main building, Chiyoko lingered nearby, silently observing their departure.
"It didn't work again," Chiyoko muttered with frustration, his anger palpable
"My name is Chiyoko hiiro, I am 18 year old. In my previous life, I had Agoraphobia becase in my school everyone bullies me because I was fat and nerd looking.
When I entered high school, I thought I can finally escape but high school was also no different.Even if I accidentally glanced at girls of my class, they starts thinking that I am an pervert and after that their boyfriends started beating me for no reason.
After enduring the years of bullying, I locked myself in my room for 2 years, just eating, sleeping, playing games and reading manga everyday. One day I decided to suicide but I couldn't do it because I was afraid of dying.
Consumed by guilt for squandering my parents' money on frivolous pursuits instead of education, I resolved to conquer my agoraphobia.
I took a deep breath, opend door in rush and run out of my apartment and rushed toward stairs but because of my heavy weight my balanced breaked and I fell down the stairs and I died."
As I felt the grip of death tightening around me, a profound realization dawned: the world's cruelty towards the vulnerable weighed heavily on my departing consciousness. In that fleeting moment, I yearned for a chance to reshape its harsh reality, to demonstrate my capabilities.
Just when I thought my journey had ended, my eyes fluttered open to an ethereal expanse, surrounded by billowing clouds that whispered of heavenly realms. Before me, a magnificent throne materialized, upon which sat a figure of unparalleled beauty.
An extremely beautiful women golden hair and eyes, wearing white and golden colour bastet ( bastet is an Egyptian clothe that umm thier cat goddess wears I think) revealing her thighs and chainlet on her hair with crystals and multiple gold rings and bracelets on her hands.
Flushed with embarrassment, I found myself utterly entranced by her exquisite presence as she began to speak.
"Oo!, you poor soul, burdened with such suffering in your mortal life," she lamented softly. "Your departure weighed heavily on my heart, That's why I, the goddess of love,offers you a second chance."
With bated breath, I listened as she unveiled my newfound destiny. "I shall send you to a realm of swords and sorcery, where your task shall be to rise as a hero and vanquish the dreaded Demon King.
"Are you ready for this divine journey?"
'The world of sword and magic? Means a fantasy world, It was my dream to become a protagonist.'
"O-of course,I am ready." I stammered, my voice trembling with anticipation.
She regarded me thoughtfully before commencing a mystical incantation, conjuring forth a magical circle beneath my feet. In an instant, I found myself whisked away from the ethereal realm, emerging amidst the grandeur of the royal capital of Almeida.
After summoned, I saw that goddess turned my body into my prime condition, I became a handsome and manly teenager, Then I met the king of Almeida and he said that kingdom of Darwitz also summoning a hero and this will take at leat a week and after that I have to attend the academy with the other hero.
After finding out about other hero, I was disappointed because I thought I'm the only hero who can save this world. It's like someone is stealing my role to become protagonist.
But when the king said that there's status window thing in this world and said me to check my status.And after checking my status, there was no doubt that I am the protagonist of this world.
