~ First Person POV ~
Once I finished killing the Gang leaders, as well as destroying their HQ, I quickly hopped back inside my dungeon along with the Giga Void Iron Golem, and closed the portal immediately. I don't want any people to learn about portals appearing out of nowhere where giant monsters can pop out.
"Hoooohh… That was refreshing."
The burden on my mind was now completely gone. But suddenly, a pain surged in my head, bringing me to my knees.
"What… the…"
Since I was in the
[Warning… Main Dungeon Portal had been damaged… Looking for other Dungeon Portals to change priorities… Dungeon Portals not found… Destruction imminent…Would you like to remove foreign entity inside dungeon outside to avoid destruction…? Y/N]
"What… The… Fuck… Are you… Talking about… Arrrghhh…!!!"
The pain in my head did not stop. But somehow, I was able to understand what it meant by removing foreign entity inside, it was probably Mari.
"Hell… No… Am I kicking her… Out of here… Gaaahhhh!!!"
[Looking for other available options… Options found… Accessing… Access Denied… Requesting permission to use MP to buy skill [Invulnerability]… Y/N]
When I read the text, I had a migraine…
'What the hell is that kind of skill!? That looks expensive!! And judging by the earlier text, it said that destruction was imminent, so if I fail to do this, then I might die…'
"…Yes…"

I endured the pain of having my head feel like being split open. Actually, it was already spreading to my whole body. It felt like I was being crushed by an invisible force. There was even blood oozing out of my pores.
[Accessing skill… Access Denied… Requesting permission to use skill [Invulnerability]… Y/N]
"Yes, yes, yes…!! GAAAAHHHHH!!!!"
The pain was just too much to bear so I screamed. The feeling of having your body being pressured like this, but having the strong will to live, was incredibly painful…
[Access granted…Initiating skill [Invulnerability] to Main Dungeon Portal… Initialization success…]
Once that was done, I felt the pressure no longer affected me, but the pain of my open wounds still hurt as hell, so I had no choice but to collapse right there and then.
"GREN!!"
"…Mari…"
Thankfully, I saw my savior coming to rescue me as soon as possible when she saw me in this state. While I was smiling like an idiot, I lost consciousness.

~ Third Person POV ~
"… Pressia, if it wasn't for your barrier, we would've died…"
"…"
"… Pressia…?"
Around where the city of Garjo once stood, two robed figures could be seen standing on top of a pile of rubble.
"… We've been… had…"
"Hm? What do you mean?"
"… We need… to report… this right… now…"
"… Is it about the clients?"
"… Yes…"
"… Damn it, I knew those people were fishy!"
Rodella kicked a piece of stone beneath her as she vented her anger on it.
"We need to move now. Pressia, teleport us, it seems like 'that' is coming back."
"… Agreed…"
The two robed figures vanished after the small one chanted and a magic circle beneath their feet shined and disappeared.

Same time, in another place far away from the destroyed Garjo.
"Lemann, good work on escaping."
"Thank you, my liege…"
Two men could be seen talking with each other. One of them was sitting on the throne, dressed in only the finest jewels and embroidered clothes. He wore a gold crown on his head, and his face had no wrinkles, indicating that he was still young.
"Now tell me, what did you find in Garjo that needed my personal judgment?"
"A kid, my liege, A white-haired kid…"
"A kid, huh? Then what about him…?"
The man seated upon the throne crossed his legs as he beckoned the man with his arm to continue.
"I think he is a
"A
"You are correct, my liege. He commanded a giant, one that was probably and A-rank monster."
"Hoh? He controls an A-rank monster? A child did…?"
"Not just control like giving orders or such, he literally did take control."
"… That is interesting…"
The man on the throne brought his hand to his chin in contemplation. After a few moments, he turned his gaze back to the kneeling man and beckoned him to leave. Once the man left, only the man on the throne was left in the room.
"Abruptum, are you finally moving…?"
The man on the throne could not help but chuckle at the entertaining view that was about to happen in the future.
<><><><><><><><><><><>
At also the same time…
"Oh Heroes! Please save this world from the Demon King!!"
Countless of young people could be seen scattered inside a spacious hall. Majority of them had black hair and black eyes. They numbered more than 1000.
"What are we supposed to do…?"
"I don't know… Isn't this what was trending on the internet? The so called isekai?"
"Then, should we leave? There are tropes such as the one who summoned us had bad intentions…?
"Maybe we should…"
Various conversations between the people with the title of [Otakus] happened during the summon. They were the most eye-catching of all because most of them were incredibly skinny or fat, but were also the most calm of the group.
"If it's for helping the people of this world for a brighter tomorrow, then count me in!"
Just then, a lone person stood at the front. He had a handsome appearance, with a tall and slightly muscular physique. He was known as Kawasaki Koujirou to the other people who were summoned along with him.
"And there it is… The template Hero of Justice…"
"As expected of the Student Council President."
"Hey, isn't it bad if we get caught up in this mood?"
"Maybe, but we don't have a choice for now… See those people wearing armor and wielding swords? Those are real, so I'd rather clam up for the time being so I don't get the short end of the stick."
"… You may be right…"
As usual, Otakus, were indeed Otakus…
