In our group I was the weakest but I still led the 4 of us. Yes, it hurt, being weak, and being protected, despite that I still chose to become the leader
Blaise as the greatest magician
Rebal as the best swordsman
Lily as the best spearwoman
And I
The best hero in the world!
That's what I hope to happen
.
"Let's go Arthur!" Lily pulled me by the hand. I was carrying my teddy bear and was biting on an apple. We the children of the heroes we're having a picnic inside the forest with our parent's. Lily was the one who proposed this.
"Lily! Arthur! Wait for us!" Blaise called out to us as Lily pulled my arm running out of the capital and into the picnic spot
"Lily! Wait for me!" The one who shouted was Lily's fatherthe empires emperor and one of the 10 heroes the spearmaster .
Solja Depheltia
"Lily, they're telling you to wait"
"But, but I want to be alone with you!" She shouted. I smiled, but I was confused and thought
What?
.
We we're already set and we we're eating. the adults we're drinking on one side and we we're playing on the other
A butterfly landed on my nose
"Achoo!" I sneezed the butterfly flew off. I chased after the butterfly into the forest
I run and
Run
And run into the forest
Not aware of my surroundings
I was already so far into the forest that I could no longer see the picnic spot
"Hmmmm?...!?!?!" A large shadow loomed over me in a silhoutte of an extremely large bear
"Groaaaaahhhh!!" It intimidated me
"Ahhhhhhh!" I shouted in terror
The bear went on all fours then attempted to bite me
I jumped out of the way screaming but I fell on my butt
I scoot away on my butt, but I hit the tree
Petrified I was only looking at the bear coming closer to me in terror
"Hey, sorry, I wanted our first meeting to be calmer but it seems that something happened and we're here. I'm sorry my Lord, Arthur"
I heard a woman's no a man's voice. It was calming to the point it sounded like a woman
"Oh, let me deal with this one first"
After he said that he cut the bears head off. The blood splatted onto my face and teddy bear
Petrified I ask "W-who are you?!"
"Don't worry milord, I am here to train you"
"Train me?" I asked
"Yes, remember the butterfly?"
"Yes"
"That butterfly would only land on nature and never on humans, unless that human has mana so pure that they have the potential to be a hero"
"He...ro?"
"Yes, now Young Arthur, I the magus of flowers, Merlin the wise, shall guide you and train you"
He handed his hand over to me
"Young Arthur, take my hand and we shall start training immediately"
I took his hand. I knew that he was kind and his feelings was genuine
After I took his hand, a swirl of flowers covered us and we we're transported, into a garden where we we're near a waterfall and had a farm that cultivated veges fruits and livestock. I closed my hand and felt nothing
I looked towards my hand and it seems that my teddy bear was left
