Nature thrived on a bright spring day, with clear skies and flowers blooming. Butterflies flitted among the blossoms, bees buzzed busily, and insects danced in the sunlight. Trees stretched high, welcoming birds to their branches, while the river flowed calmly, its surface disturbed only by the gentle movements of fish below. It was a picture-perfect scene, the epitome of a tranquil spring day.
Yet, unbeknownst to all, this serenity marked the end.
From the calm river, small ripples were formed and were getting more bigger and chaotic each passing second. The trees started to shake. The whole forest turned chaotic as bears, wolves, rabbits, deer, and all kinds of animals rushed out in unity like the rabbits were not afraid of the wolfs, and the wolfs didn't care about them as well. What could create such a situation?
A natural calamity ofcourse,
but this one was not natural at all !
Humans the race that was ruler the planet were not spared from this crisis either. It was the first calamity humanity couldnt fight back .
The calamity was a flood. but it wasnt water....
Every one running around like they can escape a disaster that swallowed the whole planet. It's natural for people to panic at the face of death.
Well that is not the case for everyone. A man in his twenties was standing on top of the tallest building in the chaotic city that was getting covered by smoke slowly, wearing black trousers with gray jacket while airpods in his hear listening to Beethoven's symphony No.14. And as his eyes were reflecting the great flood that was not far away from him which was shining brightly.... 'What a way to die!' thought the man with pitch black hair and avarage looking face a face that was showing amusement and nothingness at same time..... making it hard to distinguish what he was actually feeling. His name is [Horan].
The great flood was made from pure FIRE not even lava, making it so fast to the point of being able to swallow half the planet in a day, and at this moments its been 48 hours since the start of this crisis leaving only this city habitable place on earth. The fire moving like an ocean going through a storm causing it's wave to dance aggressively, causing distraction every where.
Making every living and non living desperate in brought day light, from the sky that was getting covered by the black fog which smoke and ash produced, The moon was descending to earth slowly.....
The moon was broken in half but not perfectly the one below being bigger and the one above being smaller both half were burning indicating that the fire tsunami was responsible.
While the black cloud(fog) that was the mixture of ash and smoke from the burning objects, shielding the sun's light from descending to the burning surface of earth...
But 2 burning moons lighting the darkness, the fire below destroying every thing in it's path..... Horan stared at the tsunami that was only 100m away. on that moment time seemed to stopped. The scene infront of him was too eye catching, The braking moon lighting the day with its flame while just about to crash with the ground while the black fog giving the whole scene a dark and a creepy feeling. The time continued, the fire already reached Horan and started to burn him turning his body black to view at that moment looking at the burning moon fragments that was about to hit the ground he couldn't help but smile slightly, ''How Beautiful'' muttered Horan..... He died.
Those moon finally crashed, creating an explosion that fueled the tsunami together they became so strong new explosion just keeps happening until the the core finally reached its limit and exploded.
In the chaos of everything falling apart, there was no time to ask questions or find answers. And now, with the Earth destroyed, there's nobody left to ask. It all happened so fast, leaving no chance to understand why.
But this was not end, it was just the beginning... after death.
Grayish human looking silhouette could be seen floating in darkness resembling abyss, space without stars just pure black space. After few moments other figures started to appear not far away from each other.
There were 10 of them now, after appearing.... there form could be seen making small changes like forming face and other fetchers like trying to form a human form.
One of the silhouette was [Horan], He just open his eyes '?.....where is this? death? is this what it looks like? all my senses are dull, I cant see hear or feel my existence, not even a blink was possible. in this situation Horan didn't now what to feel, He just died.
So now what Heaven ,Hell or stay here for eternity? Horan couldn't find an answer, but this situation, losing his senses gave him a feeling of relaxation he never felt before. 'who knew death could be this enjoyable!' thought.
However his paradise didn't last long, suddenly he gained his senses back.
That caught him off-guard. Horan looked around just to find him self standing together with gray silhouette people. this surprised him that he made an attempt of stepping back, but his legs couldn't move, at the same moment he took a glimpse at himself just to find he was just the same as them grayish silhouette, he was not the only one panicking, The other people also looked terrified, It could be seen by there action of straggling but no sound could be heard.
There were some who understood that there was nothing they could do, So they were just observing the surroundings, Horan was one of them after giving up he payed more attention to the surroundings.
He analysed 'from my point of view it looks like all 10 of us are standing in a form like we are waiting to face something in that direction' mumbled in his head while looking straight at the nothingness that he faced when he woke up moments ago.
At that moment, taking every one's attention a white sphere was manifesting in front of them.
The sphere suddenly exploded covering the whole space, Turning the dark abyss to pure white space. If Horan and the others were in there physical body they would have been blinded by the light that just exploded.
Every one was flabbergasted, The reason was not the sudden light.
They saw a women siting on a throne, she exudes an air of authority, seated upon the ornate throne. Her regal attire, a blend of white and gold, drapes elegantly. Her expression remains inscrutable, hinting at hidden secrets. Wears a golden crown that was decorated with 6 kinds of orbs each giving different color, blending with the golden armor. Golden pupils adding on her silver silk hair made her a shining beauty.
Horan and the rest was surprised with what they saw, some wondering if she was a goddess? others on the other hand thinking 'an angel!!', But for Horan who read novels and manga at his free tim-....well he didnt wait for a free time instead he read them every chance he gets walking, doing his chores you name it.
So this situation felt rather familiar with the experience of an otaku. Right now after seeing the women, his first thought was 'no way are we going to reincarnate to another world ? Like is there going to be magic and stuff? Were we summoned to be heros?' While thinking about being a hero he frowned slightly, It wasnt that he didn't like being a hero, the problem was heros on those mangas were used as slaves for the king or the summoner in general and they are just over worked most of time. well at least that was how he saw it, of course he had other reason to hate this concept as well. 'Is our world distraction also related with thi-' While Horan was lost in his fantasy a soft chuckle that resounded all over the space was heard. It came from the shining women in front of them, every ones attention was on her already, after the chuckle ''Congratulations for being the sole survivor of your world! I didn't expect this much would survive.'' she said with a beautiful smile on her face. Hearing the people were stunned.
Some were burned to death, some were crushed by a falling buildings and all sort of things happened to them that was sure to kill them they even felt the process so being 'congratulated' for surviving was out of there excpection.
Noticing the people's feelings the Woman continued "well it does not mean you are not dead, it was just you are the lucky ones to get the opportunity. " she explained.
Without waiting a response '' I shall explain your situation now, she said with voice full of pride,
"After your world was destroyed and from billions of humans you are the only one who got the chance of living in [LODAILAN], if you are wondering you can imagine Lodailan as a tree, and your world was just a branch. "
Horan and the others couldn't comprehend what they just heard,
'WHAT? THE REAL WORLD?' some screamed inwardly, watching their reaction the women smirked and continued, "Its understandable to be surprised, but this is fate you will just have to accept it!" she said with calm but annoyed tone. "But you were not the first to come even from your world there were few that I summoned as Heroes before" she claimed,
"So there was people who got summoned? did they came back and started the concept of isekai and similar fiction stereotypes?" Horan questioned. "precisely " the women answered,
this was a surprise for them because they did not expect to answer their question in fact they even heard Horan's question which was impossible before to even communicate,
At this moment every one realized they could speak to each other a large commotion started all kind of question was throne at the woman, She did not like the commotion that was created. she suddenly raised her hand from the edge of the throne golden fog filled the space surrounding the people, in less than a second everyone was chocking for air it was not that she did some thing to there breezing, its not like they are breezing any way. what she did was just releasing some(not even a fraction ) of her AURA. After giving them relief "I understand that you have questions and I am willing to answer them, so lets have manners" she said. Pointing at Horan direction "let's start from you" she said with a smile, "Can you tell us what is going to happen to as when we reached that place?" asked Horan a question that was in everyone's mind, "Well like the other summoned heroes you shall help in the demonic war, but there can only be 4 heroes " hearing this the crowed started panicking after all there were more than 10 people.
"wh-what about the rest of us?" some one questioned while stuttering, like he got a feeling that he wont like her answer. But to his surprise "Even those who can not be heroes you are still special because you have better attitude at using mana than the common people, so you have a bright future in any kingdom you want," someone continued "How will we know the heroes?" some one asked. "I will send six people with potential directly to the throne room to greet the king, then there will be a test they conduct to determine the heroes, as for the rest, you will be transported to the nobles. And they shall assign you a job based on your capabilities, I already informed them about your arrival so you wont have any worries. " she explained.
Sigh of relief could be heard all over the place,
"I shall except one last question." she said.
Someone asked "If I may.... can I ask who you are?"
"I am MONARCH OF LIGHT" she replied with tone full of pride.
At the next moment all of them started to fall to the white abyss,
. . .
Not long after, Horan opened his eyes to find him self lying on a rough surface,
He pulled himself quickly getting his upper body off the ground and started observing his surrounding, First his eyes landed on the wall that was decorated with luxuries objects that was screaming elegancy, Next he looked at the roof that was covered with weird painting that tried to describe some kind of war.
But Horan couldn't see it clearly nor did he care too, He was not alone, There was 5 more people with him '5....wait with me it is 6 does that mean we are the he--' Interrupting his thought "Welcome to my Hamble Kingdom!" a deep voice echoed the whole hall. Every ones attention was drawn by the voice, Horan looked at the direction of the source,
The source of the voice was a man in his middle age with a golden crown on his brown short hair, his black pupils adding with his serious look creating a mature face , Wearing a white tunic with intricate black and gold detailing a black cape with gold trim, and shoulder armor pieces adorned with gold. The attire suggesting that he could be a figure of significant importance, Sitting on a black and gold throne. He continued, "I am known as [Adbert Adrian]...the king of [PORAD]!! " he claimed with a clam voice, pointing to his left which was another throne " This is my dear wife [Dallet Adrian]" said looking at her, She followed " I shall welcome you as well. " she said with a slight smile, Her light purple hair flowing to her shoulders. Her gray eyes giving gloomy feeling but could brighten the room with her smile. Wearing full white dress with golden and purple strips.
After a short silent, King Adbert ordered "The test shall begin now!".
At this moment, The door behind Horan and the others opened Two figures Immerged from the door and gave a bow to the king,
They wore black robe with hood covering there whole face, One of them put forward this hand, Next an orb that was as white as a snow formed on his palm, "Please heroes step forward so that we can determine the chosen ones " a sound from an old man that was not pleasant to hear entered Horan's hear.
"Let's start from you." said the old man pointing to the man who was standing next to Horan,
The man looked similar age with Horan had light brown hair, Black pupils, wore white shirt with a thin brown leather jacket and dark blue pants.
After some hesitation he followed the old man instructions and started to walk to their direction, every ones eye was on him. "Good, now put your hand on the orb and state your name." said the old man with a smirk. "My name is [Luke]..." said while putting his hands on the orb.
Following that the orb started to glow golden, It was to bright even the old man holding it couldn't help but cover his eye, Before they could even put any comment, the light exploded through the hall blinding every one for a second.
The two figures as well as every one was shocked even Luke was surprised.
The old man asked while stuttering "Amazing is this the talent of the heroes? "
"Does that mean I am....". Before Luke could finish his question,
"Ofcourse " answered the old man while turning his head to the king,
king Adbert replied with a simple nod. The old man nodded back and continued.
"You can go back now Luke, And miss please come over here".
The girl flinched a little when she saw him point at her,
however she calmed her self as she walked passed Luke who was returning and finally faced the orb "State your name while you touch the orb" said the old man.
She answered with a nod.
She followed the instruction and touched the orb, Then with a calm tone she said "My name is [Stella]." Stella had short brown hair that was fluffy as a cotton, her bright orange eyes reflecting the little light from the window far away, she was in her late teens. Wore a brown sweater with the collar reaching her neck, Matching it she wore black trousers.
The moment she touched the orb the same thing as Luke happened. "You are a hero as well !" the old man was exited, Stella felt a mixture of both relief and fear of what is a bout to come. With out waiting she returned to her original spot.
Next, "young man with the silver hair." said looking at a teen that was standing behind Luke, like the old man said He had silver hair as well ass gray eyes and black eyes indicating lack of sleep, he was wearing black shirt with gray shorts,
"My na-name is Ned.." said with a nervoes voice,
the old man smiled and said with a polite tone "Sure Ned however you need to touch the orb first "
"Oh right..... " said Ned while smiling from the embarrassment he just felt. He quickly went to the orb and did the process like instructed.
However the orb did not glow instead it turned darker, "what dose this mean?" asked Ned. The guy behind the old man giggled a little. The old man answered with mocking tone "It means you are not even at the level of a commoner on the street." Ned did not know how to feel, he could only keep silent. The old man then looked at the king again,
This time the King roared "Guards!!".
Following there kings order 2 figures covered in full black armor appeared behind Ned, And before he could react one of them caught from his neck and all three of them disappeared. Leaving the room silent for a moment.
Like nothing happened the old man looked at the other candidates. To be exact he was looking at the red hair guy standing with a grim expression he was bulky as well as tall, wore jeans short with only simple sky blue shirt,
After noticing the old man's glare he did what the rest has done and went to the orb, then placed his hands on it....."My name is [ROD]." He added.
The orb actually shined the same as the past two 'heroes' indicating he was the third hero,
He sighed with a relief,
However now there is three heroes There is only one spot left and from the six of them. Two was left.
One being Horan and the other being a literal child around 12 years old, She had a pale with terrified expression, And couldn't even comprehend what was happening after all she was burned to death like every one here but for a child....it was pretty hard.
she just new she had to touch the orb and have to make it shine some how so that she wont share the same fate as the silver haired guy([Ned]) .
On the other hand Horan was thinking the same as well, He did not want to get kidnapped.
The little girl didn't now there was only one spot left, At that time the old man called the Little girl making her shiver from fear,
unconsciously she looked at the nearest person near her with a plane expression, which was Horan,
Horan responded with a wide smile which comforted the little girl,
Then she rushed to the orb while her blond hair danced in the air, she was wearing a blue dress.
The moment she arrived "There is no need to hurry little girl." called the old man with a casual tone. "now place your hand on this and state your name" He added.
She followed "My name is [Pearl] " whispered with a wobbly voice, while touching the orb.
The orb actually shined brightly Once again. She was the last Hero...Nature thrived on a bright spring day, with clear skies and flowers blooming. Butterflies flitted among the blossoms, bees buzzed busily, and insects danced in the sunlight. Trees stretched high, welcoming birds to their branches, while the river flowed calmly, its surface disturbed only by the gentle movements of fish below. It was a picture-perfect scene, the epitome of a tranquil spring day.
Yet, unbeknownst to all, this serenity marked the end.
From the calm river, small ripples were formed and were getting more bigger and chaotic each passing second. The trees started to shake.
