300 years ago, The awakening of the demon lord brought terror and destruction across the 5 kingdoms. When the people were losing hope, the messenger of time suddenly appeared in front of them, with his book that can predict the future, he said to the people:
"In this chaotic times, a light will shine, and the 5 heroes will be know, with their courage and strength. They will set off on a long adventurous journey to defeat the great evil and free the once peaceful land."
Everyone waited for a very long time for this prophecy to happen. now, 300 years later, the city I lived in, is currently being attack by evil beasts.
You can hear screams on every corner and streets. "Run! Run for your lives!!" "Why are they here?!?" "Someone! Someone please save us!". I've been on different cities before, and something like this isn't really new to me.
I'm not really scared or anything, but the only thing I'm worried about, is the house I just bought was turned into rubble by those evil beasts. I already used up almost all the money I had just to buy this house, now I'm basically broke.
While I was searching for some stuff that I can salvage from the rubbles, an evil beast spotted me, It charged at me with full speed, leaving me no time to dodge or escape. So I just stood there, waiting for it to go near me.
But before that, let me introduce myself first. I'm Mizuto, I may look like an idiot but I actually studied in a magic school, sadly my hometown was destroyed, and me and my family was forced to escape to the nearest cities. It was very chaotic at the time but we managed to have a somewhat simple life. Now I'm 19 and started working as an adventurer, I haven't really been in a real adventure but the pay is pretty decent, I only need to kill weak monsters as a job, but the increase of the evil beasts on the area became really alarming, so going in and out of the city is now very limited. Now back to the story....
When the evil beast was in range, I attacked it with my advance magic. "Frozen spikes!!!" The ice spikes pierced the evil beast's body and immediately died, it dropped some valuable stones that costs a fortune, so I took some and put them in my pocket.
I heard some screams coming from the main square, so I quickly grabbed my staff and immediately rushed towards the screams.
When I arrived, I saw a slightly stronger evil beast. It had a buffed body and a spear as a weapon. I was shocked, I didn't know evil beasts could have that kind of intelligence to be able to use a weapon. All I know is that they charge their enemies with their huge horns.
By just looking at that thing, I already knew how big of a threat it can make and it needs to be stopped immediately. Before I even cast a spell, the beast was already cut into two. 'who could have done such thing with such speed?!' I asked myself.
When I looked behind the evil beast, I saw a girl carrying a huge sword. I was confused and curious, so I asked the girl if she really did kill the evil beast.
"Uh.. excuse me, but did yo-" "No need to be afraid! I, The great and mighty hero Katsumi just saved you from this evil beast! Ha ha ha ha!" She said loudly on my face. 'This girl is pretty annoying.' I said to myself.
"If you weren't so arrogant enough, I could have thanked you myself." "But I don't really have time for this, I need to go now". Then she pulled my arm while I was about to walk away. "Why are you like this?! I just saved your life a moment ago, you should have praised me more!". I'm actually starting to get annoyed here.
"I already told you, I don't have tim-". I was stopped mid-sentence by the growling of her tummy. Her face started to turn red. I looked at her and said. "Alright, Fine, you really did saved me earlier, so I don't mind giving you a treat." Her eyes started to sparkle while smiling at me. "Let's go to the restaurant I usually go to, I think they're still open." She really is annoying, but I guess I really owe her one.
