Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Chapter 1

2 years ago, my father and mother has died at the hand of the Demon Lord Astaroth.

My father and mother were summoned when Humanity and the other races were in grave danger to this world, to save the world from the hands of the Demon Lord.

They saved the world but they also died.

I was born 12 years ago, my Dad was a Swordman who specialize in swordsmanship and my Mother was a Sage, who specialize in Magic.

They kept me a secret from the kingdom so that no one in the kingdom will use me as a tool.

The last words that I only heard from my parents were [Live my Son, don't tell your Identity to others so that you cannot be a tool of somebody].

That was the last words of my parent, hearing them from a communication stone.

I have grudge against the demon race, the race that start a war on each race and tried to conquer the world.

Even the gods cannot beat Demon Lord Astaroth because of the power he has.

And after 2 years from that, I became an Adventurer but I am only a newbie.

I live in a peaceful village and yesterday, I register to become an Adventurer.

After the day I register, I pick up a quest note from the quest tab.

[This quest please] I handed over the quest note to the Lady who was in charge of confirming if they completed the quest that the adventurers had picked and giving marks to the quest note that this quest has been approved by the guild.

[Here you go sir, please come back Safely] I pick up the quest note and go to the forest, to hunt down the creatures so that I can confirm that I killed them and completed the quest.

Rank E Quest: Hunt down 5-horned Rabbit.

Horned Rabbits are said to be found in the grassland but rarely found in the forest, I search in the forest for a while and still not found yet and decide to go to a grassland.

I found a grassland Area and horned rabbits.

I quickly use my skill, Conceal and enhanced my Body, and grab my site.

I killed them one by one with ease, I taught them it was not easy to kill horned rabbits but they were wrong.

I used my Item ring called Dimensional Space Ring, I ring that have dimensional space storage, almost all adventurer use this ring since it is now common because of my parents who created this and do a mass creation.

The ring has its limitations and living creatures cannot go inside.

I quickly put the horned rabbit corpse in the dimensional storage and after that, I walk around if I can kill more.

Seems like the horned rabbits hide because of what I did earlier, I search again in the area and found someone lying in the middle of the grassland.

It was a girl, a girl with green hair, a cute face and beautiful.

I woke her up [miss.... miss, woke up miss... it's dangerous to lie down in the middle of the grassland] Finally she woke up.

She looks at the surroundings and said [Where am I?] I answer her question even though she didn't notice that I was the one who woke her up [Miss this is the grassland area near to a village where I'm staying] She looks at me with suspiciousness, she stands up and said [Who might you be mister?]

So I answered her question

[My name is Suzuya Jouzo, you can call me Jouzo and I live in a village which is near here]

[Nice to meet you Jouzo, I... my name is..... Uruha Rushia.... you can call me Rushia]

She was still in suspiciousness, she was searching in the grass for something and found it a few minutes.

She found a Knife.... it seems like that knife is special to her.

[Mis...I mean Jouzo-san can I ask how you found me?]

[Uhh yeah, I just found you lying in here, I woke you up cause if I leave you here, you might be in danger at any time and can you remember anything why you here?]

Seems like the girl... I mean Rushia doesn't know.

[I don't know, my memories are gone, I can only remember what's my.... no this body name]

Body name? I was curious about that part so I ask [The body name?]

[Yes... this body of mine is not mine, I can remember that this body is not mine but cannot remember who's body Is it, except that I Remember it's named]

That's suspicious...

[Then are you a summon person from another world]

She looked at me with no idea what I was talking about

[summoned person? no, I don't think I am...]

suddenly we here a small roar and that was her tummy hungry

[pfft...]

She was embarrassed and had a reddish face.

[wanna come to the village with me, since you don't have any money, I can pay for your food as a gift to a friend even though we just met]

It's been two years since I have laughed, I only think in those two years was despair and how to avenge my parents.

We walk to the village, I first gave my completed quest and proof that I have completed the quest to the Lady who was at the counter.

Rushia was observing and had the look of being uncomfortable since she was unfamiliar with places like this.

After I grabbed my pay, we go to an Inn where I sleep.

We saw an empty table and ordered food [then, what food do you want?]

Rushia look at the menu and said

[Ramen...I want ramen]

[very well then, please give us two ramen]

We wait for our ramen to arrive at our table

[Here's you're ramen]

[Itadakimasu]

Rushia was happy because the ramen was delicious.

We finished eating our food.

[Seems like this inn is popular]

[well, yeah I suppose, this inn is an Inn for newbie adventurers like me]

[ohhhh, can I ask what's an Adventurer?]

Seems like she doesn't know what an adventurer is.

[It is a Dangerous job that takes quest notes that must be completed until the deadline, some of the quests are dangerous as the rank goes up and some of the quests are not very dangerous since their rank are very low]

[so quest has ranks?]

[yes, Rank F quest the lowest E, D, C, B, A and S, S rank quest is the most dangerous quest that needs 5 members of A rank adventurer or 2 S rank Adventurer]

[ohhh, well that is indeed danger.....]

Suddenly Uruha Rushia fainted

[Oi, Oi, Rushia wake up! Miss, please help me here, My friend has just fainted]

I grab her and put her in an empty room in the Inn, the Innkeeper called a doctor.

[Seems like your friend was cursed]

[Cursed?]

[Yes but this curse is not harmless since this curse can only force your friend to be asleep at a certain time, what time did your friend faint or sleep?]

[ I think it was 10:30 pm]

[okay be sure to say this to you're a friend to go to bed when it is nearly 10:30 pm so that she can sleep in a bed and not sleep somewhere else when the curse affects her]

[Thanks doc]

[Don't mention it, just protect this peaceful village]

I explain to the Innkeeper and pay her money for the room where Rushia sleep, I decide to sleep now too since I'm very tired.
