Chapter 5 - Stats? (Part 1)

"Who the hell are you!?"

I'm supposed to question that...

"Wait... Ughh!! My eyes!!!"

He was under his knees. He covered his eyes as if it was bleeding

Now that i think of it, he's actually in rags. I got carried away so i didn't notice that. He has chains around him that eminate a malicious aura. His body is full of bruises and scars.

Such white skin and that glowing blonde hair yet it was wasted... Those eyes look as if he endured it very long

But it's almost as if he was sealed.

"I remember now... We were defeated and that Demon King sealed us!"

"Yeah, yeah can you now please explain me things?"

Do your job guide.

"Who are you? I know i questioned you before, but i don't really know why i was send here."

Umm... aren't you my guide?

Is he really fine?

"My name is John. Does it ring a bell?"

"Don't mess around me- agh!"

Woah. he totally tried to be angry.

"I see... This body is already too weak."

Now he's letting me feel bad about his situation. What about mine? Fine i'll play along.

"Now you look pitiful. I'm sorry"

"A mere mortal pity this god? I don't need it!"

"Look, i'm also in a pinch so can we just talk?"

Seriously. It feels as if he would be dragged onto something if we keep this pace up.

"I am Hermes. I was called as the messenger of gods. Well, back then"

?

What's this?

This guy is actually chill when he's calm.

"Ok no! don't do another excessive flashback about how you neglected this world and basically loss because all the heroes you picked are either ignorant or retards!"

"How can you even tell that to us?"

I just wanted to keep it professional...

"If you know to that extent then i'm guessing your a {Hero}?"

There we picked it up!

"Yes, i am a hero but i was not a formal one until now."

"Then our plan worked. Honestly, we were actually nervous since we don't know the identity of the last hero in this world"

"I don't really think it was wise to actually leave it to me."

"We don't really have much of a choice either"

This topic really pisses me off!

"But i'm really suprised how my seal was temporarily broken..."

Well his appearance is grim after all.

"I don't know about that! more importantly, aren't you going to teach me the basics?"

"Huh?"

"What?!? Don't act suprised! I called you here as my {Guide}! Why are you like that?"

"You called me here!?! Impossible! Not even the gods can break those seals how can you just casually call me?!"

I don't care!!!

"Do your JOB!"

Suddenly he was taken back

"W-what?... w-who the hell are you?!?"

Not this again!

"I told you i am John a hero!"

"N-no.. your stats! you're not a human no, this isn't even possible!"

Huh?

"Don't you see your stats! All of them exceed S except the other stats!"

I know it's something big. But i don't really know what he is talking about.

"Hey..."

"H-heeh!!"

Why is he scared? Oh come on!

"Calm down..."

"N-noo!!"

"I said CALM DOWN GODDAMMIT!!!"

The whole room was shaking. Oops maybe i overdid it

But the Hermes was groveling in the ground already.

"I'm sorry!"

"No... i should be the one who's sorry"

I think i have to control my powers a little.

"Again, can you please do your job as a {Guide}?"

"Why? Haven't i already explained it to you? If you are indeed a hero, then it means that you have summoned me atleast once in your time here."

But i said that i abandoned that responsibility...

"Plus your level is absurd! Even us gods can't compare to that! Your stats are also amazing! How come i missed such a gem as you?"

Gem? You mean Coal? Ok stop with the puns.

"About that..."

I sat down and explained everything that i and Athena have talked on. It was how i was a defect hero that was supposed to be someone else but Athena failed. She said that it cannot be reversed but felt pitiful (Not really but because i was nagging about it) so she sended me here along with some skills to sleep forever (literally) as i have requested. Some few (read: century) years later, she woke me up and she explained the world's crisis (that i don't really care) and that i was the only one left who can solve it. So i abruptly agreed to her.

"Now i see, but you're some serious leech aren't you?"

"It's not leeching if you're not harming them..."

"So you're saying that you called me here just to teach you the basics? This takes me back..."

"Stop"

"Fine, you're stingy. But it seems that you were able to call me despite me being sealed. I think it has something to do with your Magic..."

Finally some explanation!

"But, i don't really think that's the case since you have no knowledge about it."

Ok so can we please go now to the explanation.

"Ok fine i'll do my job! Just stop looking at me as if you're very impatient about it!

"Does it really look that way?"

"Yes! and not just ordinary ones! those eyes look at me with murderous aura!"

Is this dude a paranoid type? Still, i think it's going to be a long night... or day whatever's fine
