Chapter 9 - Food!

Alright, I can't use gluttony 'cause I need to eat it so... Hmmm. Any ideas?

[Even if I did, I wouldn't tell you.]

Hmph, be like that! I'll jus-

{>Processing inquiry... Complete. Out of 145,603,249,135,235 ways you could go about this, I suggest using gravity and to drop a sword onto it. By buying it, the sword will materialize bottom up, resulting in it dropping down and stabbing the head of the beast, it's the easiest way to go about this.

O h , o k a y , t h a n k s . Buy a sword, please.

{Yes, deducting Credits.}

I watched as the sword slowly Materialize in front of me, it's kinda mesmerizing watching it build itself- It fully formed anD OH IT'S GOING DOWN- OH? O H ? IT HIT IT! YES! YES! Phew! Now that was easy, thought it'd be wayyyy harder! 'Guess I got lucky!

It fell to the ground, the sword sticking out of it. I slowly flew down and turned back into my normal form. "Now, how should I divide the food up...? oH! Did I level up at all?"

{No experience points were earned, therefore, you have gained no levels.}

"Aw, darn... Wait, excuse me? S-shouldn't they have given me at least a small bit? W - w o u l d n ' t t h a t m e a n -"

The Orc stood up.

"Ah, I believe in this situation, the correct response would beee... S h i t -"

YEAH MAN, I RAN AS FAST AS I COULD, OH IT'S FOLLOWING ME, GREATTTT! THIS IS JUST HECKING GREAT! ISN'T IT? I'VE GOT A PROBABLY FiVE MILLiON POUND ORC FOLLOWING ME AND CATCHING UP WITH ME- THIS HAS GONE ALL SORTS OF WRONG! WHILE SYSTEM AI GUY IS JUST STRAIGHT UP LAUGHING AT ME- You know I really should give them a name, it's really inconvenient just calling them 'System AI'... I'LL DO THAT LATER THOUGH- WAIT A MINUTE!

"DEFENCE FORM!" I Shouted, the skill activating, turning me indestructible! I couldn't move though, wait why can't I move?!

{That is a side effect of the skill 'Defence Form.'}

"Ah. I guess I wasn't moving last time too-"

Oh, the Orc- Yeah it's just standing in front of me, looking extremely confused. I mean, that's a given- OH IT'S ATTACKING ME NOW.

"OW, OW! DAMNIT THAT HURTS- STOP IT YOU PIG! ACK!" THE ORC WAS HITTING ME OVER AND OVER AGAIN WITH IT'S HUGE BAT THINGY. I MEAN I'M NOT GETTING DAMAGED AT ALL, BUT IT STILL HURTS!

"OKAY WHAT DO I DO-"

{>Cal-}

[OKAY STOP YOU CAN'T DO THAT, I'M SORRY I NEED TO HAVE A TALK WITH THEM, DEAL WITH THIS YOURSELF-] I uh, heard footsteps and then they both stopped talking or responding-

"I'm not gonna ask-" They're still hitting me but, well it doesn't hurt as much and their blows are getting a bit slower. Okay, so they already have a sword sticking out of their head and I just have to put that thing a bit deeper in- that's what she said- I'M SORRY I KNOW WHAT SITUATION I'M IN BUT IT's MANDATORY, OKAY?

I deactivated Defence Form and jumped back, activating Paralysis Bite.

I ran forward and got real close to him! I managed to bite it right in the arm before it could get back or block. Its body stiffened up.

"HaH! I know for a fact you were already really tired, so even if it's just lesser paralysis, It'll still make it so you can barely move with your current stamina! Ha-Ha-Ha!" I gloated, I mean, I won! Definitely this time. Just have to do the opposite of what Arthur did when he pulled the sword from the stone! And I did. Just as insurance, I grabbed one of the arrows and stabbed it into their eyes.

"And with that, I've gotten food!"

[Chapter 9, End.]

In the capital of the nation of Draila, A very special ritual was taking place. This ritual was called "The Hero summoning ritual" This ritual would summon five heroes. In the prophecies of old, it was said that these five heroes would defend the Human race against the never-ending war that went on between the Humans and demons. The heroes were to defeat the Demon Lord and end the wars forever.

After five painstakingly days and hundreds of mage's mana drained, The Heroes were summoned. This is their story.

Yuu was in a daze, he didn't know what happened or where he was.

It was a day like any other, he was hanging out with his friends, Togeshi and Akane. It seemed like the world had stopped, out of nowhere, a strange symbol appeared on the ground. It quickly engulfed the three before they could even react.

They appeared in a large, fancily decorated room, similar to the insides of medieval time castles.

"F-Father! It worked...?" A hint of confusion was in Princess Zanna's voice as her eyes darted between the three and the King.

"Hm... This is quite problematic... There's only three." A low voice belonging to King Mugra spoke.

While this was happening, Yuu, Togeshi, and Akane became more and more confused. Togeshi spoke up

"WHERE THE HELL ARE WE?!" Togeshi's brash manner and him saying what's on his mind were good for tough situations. And well, this was a 'tough' situation

"Ah, Apologies. Brave heroes, we have summoned you here to fend off and defeat the Demon Lord. Please, help us. Though, usually... There'd be Five of you... No matter! "

"Huh?"
