We were divided into three groups:
The first group consisted of those who would fight alongside the Hero to combat the Demon King. They would embark on adventures with the Hero to level up their skills. The members of this group had high status and were well-suited for combat.
The second group was responsible for protecting the Human kingdom from within. They had more freedom since they didn't have to accompany the Hero on their journeys. Their task was to serve as guardians within the kingdom. The members of this group had moderate status.
Lastly, the third group comprised individuals who were not directly involved in protecting the Human kingdom but rather were in need of protection due to their unsuitability for combat. This group provided support to the first and second groups, assisting them in various ways.
These three groups were named accordingly: the Hero Group, the Guardian Group, and the Support Group.
Ray's proposed groupings were accepted by King Alex and the others.
"All right, those who wish to join the Hero Group, please line up in front of me. The Guardian Group will be on the right, and the Support Group on the left," Ray instructed us.
Everyone began making their decisions and moving to their respective choices.
As I pondered over the options, the system reminded me of the club selection process we had in school for extracurricular activities.
Without hesitation, I opted to join the Guardian Group. Positioned in the middle, it attracted the largest number of participants. It seemed like a practical choice as I wouldn't stand out too much.
Suddenly, someone tapped me on the shoulder and called out my name.
"Hey, Raqnid!"
