No... the sky was crystal clear just now. Then... a Guardian?
'Shit! They are already here to apprehend me, huh.'
A sword pierced the wall of the class, it slashed the wall to make a door. From that "Door", an extremely handsome man, in silver armour emerged. That silver armour had a red cross on the chest. Long hairs, handsome face. And.... a wing of features on the back. He is not a Guardian, no... he is something far more powerful, he is a freaking Apostle.
"The boy.... and the girl... hmm... Two of em' huh...", muttered the armoured Apostle donning an indifferent expression.
'Girl?'
I looked behind to see a girl wearing an eyepatch.
Turning back to the armoured man, I said in a desperate tone, clearly assuming the worst.
'huu.... keep calm. He's not gonna kill me straight away, it's not like that pillar of light harmed anyone in the school too... probably. He is an Apostle. Apostles are Goddess's aids, he can't harm me without a proper trail at least not in front of Mana Sensei. He has an image to uphold.'
'I should act like what an ignorant innocent teenager should act like in this situation... a bit of stutter and a bit of plea...'
"S-Sir, listen, I haven't d-done anything.... that pillar of light. I don't know anything about that... I promise... it has no connection with m--"
Cutting my words off, he said, "Of course, you don't know anything about it. The last time it happened was Two thousand years ago. As for the connection... you do have it. Anyway, both of you. The boy and the girl... Goddess Helastia wants to have a conversation. You need to come with me."
'That sounds like bad news. What the goddess needs to talk with us? I don't want to go!!'
'Wait... the government might help! I don't live in a country that's under any goddess's rule.'
"With all due respect, please contact my country's embassy before taking me anywh--"
"Sigh.... this matter concerns the fate of the whole world, besides there is no need for those petty formalities."
'Huh?'

[Prayapan Grand Palace]
We are inside a palace... a pretty grand looking if I have to say. We are waiting for the Goddess. Other than me there are two more people in this chamber, that eyepatch girl and the Apostle. I noticed that the eyepatch girl has her bag with her... The Apostle doesn't seem to mind so, it's okay, I guess?
'Well, unlike us boys, most girls carry necessary items with them, no surprise they bring their big purse everywhere they go... haha!'
*Sigh...*
Edmund Von Helasthede, that's the name of this tall man in silver armour with a face like a Greek God. He told us his name after we got here... he also told us that he is an Apostle. Which I had already guessed. The Apostles have only one purpose, to obey their respective Goddesses. Apostles aren't humans. No, they are some sort of divine beings who came along with the goddesses in this world... to carry out their orders. They have enough power to decimate an entire mountain in the blink of an eye. Not many people in this world know how the Goddesses or the Apostles actually look. The only way by which we ordinary folks can identify an Apostles is their signature silver armour with a red cross on the chest.
I tried to ask him about what was happening, the guy said nothing. After introducing himself the guy literally didn't utter a word.
'If we want to know anything more, I guess we'll have to wait until the Goddess arrives.'
After waiting for a few more minutes, the Apostle irritatingly pointed his hand forward, a cloudy bluish-black portal like thing started to form ahead of us.
'Looks like he lost his patience, did the goddess tell him to wait until she called?'
The Apostle proceeded to move inside the portal and told us to follow him to the Goddess on the other side.
'I am a bit reluctant to step inside, but it must be safe, right?'
I entered the portal along with the eyepatch chunnibyou.

[Unknown]
Appearing on the other side of the portal, I could see a pure white room with several pillars and golden circular patterns on the wall. There is a glass ceiling above my head from which, a normal bright blue sky with white clouds scattered around could be seen.
I can tell that at least this is not some 'other dimension' or that kind of place. We're still on this planet!
There is a faint pleasant air flowing in my lungs. Also, a thick, dense fog floats near the floor.
In front of the room, several handsome men are standing on the stairs that lead to a platform, they have the same attire as Edmund. And on the platform, a beautiful figure was standing.
That figure was of a woman... an extremely beautiful woman, so beautiful that no amount of words could describe her. Crystal-like azure eyes. Blonde hair, ornamented by a thin tiara. And a perfect hourglass figure that was highlighted by her white dress with gold embroidery. The area below her knee is surrounded by pleasant fog. She looks just like an angel between clouds... No, she looks what she's supposed to look like. No doubt about that... she is Goddess Helastia.
" --elcome to Earth-01Z, the people of Earth-818. You were all summoned here, by... All-father. To save this world from a cruel catastrophe that comes again and again to haunt this world. To become the hero you are all meant to be. To fight the Devil lord... To protect the people of this world... Please lend me your hand... to save this world."
The Goddess wasn't speaking to us, she was speaking to the group that was already present here.
Most of what the goddess was saying, was already known to me, it's already written in every history book. But it did surprise me to think that I will witness the rise of the devils during my lifespan, it surprised me for sure... but it wasn't the most surprising thing. The group the Goddess was speaking with, were...
I don't get it why are they here? Why are they here?
They shouldn't be in this world...
They shouldn't exist in this world...
How could the classmates and the teacher that I had in my previous world come here? How could they come into this world!?
