A pale light rises from the golden magic circle drawn on the white marble floor.

The divine light quickly grew in intensity, brightly illuminating the hall, which was large enough to hold an entire house.

「It’s a success……」

Patiyu staggered, her beautiful face slightly contorted.

Ritual of summoning for the hero.

It was a technique that used up most of her magic, even though she boasts extraordinary magical power.

「Princess!」

The four women officers and the two men who seemed to be guarding her hurriedly reached out to support Patiyu, but she stubbornly refused their hands.

「I’m fine.」

Her hair, shimmering blue, reaching down her waist, swayed in the light of the magic circle.

Her large round eyes, the same color as her hair, widened and Patiyu stared straight into the magic circle in front of her.

A shadow floated vaguely in the rising light.

And when the rising light completely disappeared, there were 4 people standing on top of the magic circle.

「What the hell?」

The only man among the four, a boy, noticed a figure standing in front of him and immediately stepped forward to protect the three girls.

「Hey, what is this place?」

A girl with short, gently wavy hair and an anxious look in her winsome eyes diagonally stands across from the boy and claches both of her fists in a half stance.

「Erika, we were at the intersection, right?」

Behind them, a girl with slightly droppy eyes muttered in a calm voice as she brushed her hair back over her shoulders.

「Even in this situation, you’re still going at your own pace… As expected of Honoka-san.」

A tall, pony-tailed girl with slitted eyes squinted at the face of Honoka, who stood next to her, as if half-amused.

「Naoto, what’s going on here?」

「I don’t know either, Yuki.」

Naoto glanced over to Yuki, who was taking a karate stance, and turned to the people standing in front of him.

Patiyu plucked the hem of her dress with both hands, smilled and bowed to the wary Naoro and the others.

「Everyone, welcome to……」

「Princess, your language.」

「Ah, yes, of course.」

Patiyu tried to exchange greetings to show that she meant no harm, but when one of the ladies approached her, she remembered that she could not communicate with them as she was right now.

「Give me that.」

At Patiyu’s instruction, one of the maids held a silver box in her hands and stepped forward with a slow gesture in front Naoto.

「A ring?」

When Naoto looked inside the box that was offered to him, he saw four rings lined up.

Patiyu gestures to Naoto, who peers into the box puzzled, and urges him to put it on.

「You want me to put this on?」

「Naoto……」

Naoto, who stopped his extended hand for a moment, closed his eyes and took a deep breath when he heard Yuki who is staring anxiously at him.

「No point in resisting, I guess.」

He took one of the rings and placed it on his left middle finger.

「Do you understand us now…?」

「Eh? Japanese… is this ring translating to it?」

Naoto was surprised to suddenly hear the words of the other person in Japanese, when he had no idea what they were saying, and he examined the ring carefully as he turned his hand over it. When he turned around, he saw that the three of them were also staring at the ring with big eyes.

「Greetings again. My name is Patiyu Yumir-Anne Elrain. Welcome to the Kingdom of Elrain, my brave warriors and heroes. We welcome the four of you」

Patiyu bowed with a graceful gesture.

「Heroes? What’s that….」

「I’ll be happy to explain in detail. But let’s change the location first, please….」

At that moment.

「Um……」

I heard a voice interrupting Patyiu’s voice.

「It seems that there’s five of us instead of four.」

All of them turned their heads in the direction of the voice at once.

Behind Naoto and the three of them, a little farther away, there was definitely another person.

「Eh?」

Patiyu opened her eyes wide and looked again at the owner of the voice.

「Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhh?」

It was the unexpected fifth summoned.

 

 

After that, Patiyu, who had regained her composure, led the five of us to a different room than the summoning room.

「It’s called the Philosopher’s tablet, and it allows you to see your status.」

Patiyu pointed her hand to a stone board on the table.

It was a little smaller than a piece of A3 paper, with a glossy finish that made it hard to believe that it was made of stone, and the whole thing was shining black.

「It looks kind of like a tablet……」

Naoto’s impression was not so far off the mark.

「Hold your hand over this stone board.」

At Patiyu’s urging, Naoto held up his hand over the stone board.

「So Naoto is the Hero after all…. well, I guess so. Then I’ll be next.」

「No, that’s not true. Even the person who currently has the highest magic power in this country is 160. And that’s just the initial value, it will increase further as you grow.」

Yuki’s expression relaxed as Patiyu exclaimed in admiration.

「I guess I’m next.」

「Wow, Erika is an archer because she’s in the archery club.」

Yuki peered at the stone slab from the side and looked up into the face of Erika, who was taller than her.

「You’re in the karate club, so you’re a fighter and a fencer.」

「I’m on the baseball team, so I have nothing to do with swordsmen.」

Naoto twisted his head at the conversation between the two. Because swords and baseball don’t seem to have anything in common.

「But in Naoto’s case, he’s swinging a bat.」

「No, I’m not swinging it……」

「Naoto-kun, you seem like a dangerous person.」

Honoka smiles at me, not looking offended at all.

「Honoka, there’s something different about that.」

Ryou, who was listening behind them, couldn’t help but erupt. At the same time, he furrowed his brows in suble discomfort.

「Okay, I’ll go next.」

「What does the ‘abilities’ section mean?」

Ryou asked a question that no one had asked before.

「Oh, that. I’ve been meaning to ask you about that too.」

「Those are abilities that can be exercised. Magic is the ability to place spells and attributes on weapons, and supremacy is the power to strengthen the body and the mind before a fight, which is also called fighting spirit. 」

「What about Logic?」

「It’s a bit difficult, but it’s a force that acts physically. For example, you can move objects without touching them or make invisible shields apppear.」1

Patyiu paused there and looked around at everyone’s faces. The five of them nodded to let her know that they understood.

「Just be aware that you can’t use each of these powers at the same time.」

So far, so good.

The problem was when Ryou held up his hand to the stone board.

Gifts: Rebirth, Awakening

「Somehow, there are a lot of things wrong with it……」 2

Ryou couldn’t help but feel like complaining at the status displayed on the stone board. Compared to the prvious four, his status was too bad. However, when it’s this bad, it makes you calm down.

「My name is the same…」

My name was not given by my parents, but by the owner of the orphanage, who acted as my guardian.

So I thought that maybe my name wouldn’t show up, or maybe it would show up as the name my real parents gave me.

I didn’t particularly like or dislike the name, but I found it funny that I was relieved to see it displayed as normal.

「I, it’s not poissible…. to have 0 magic power.」

Instead, it was Patiyu who impatiently shouted.

「Every person who lives in this worlds has magic power, and yet…」

「Look, I’m not from this world, and I don’t have any problems with it, so I think I’ll be fine……」

Ryou responded in an extremely calm manner. He has always been a man who is calm and unperturbed by things, and he analyzes the situations calmly.

「It’s your status, you know」

Seeing Patiyu’s serious panic and expression, Ryou couldn’t help but relax his mouth. This person must be really worried about me.

「I don’t even know what’s the status. The titles like “?” and “*”」

「And the unique skills and abilities are marked as『―――』」

Yuki, peeking in from Ryou’s right, folded her arms and tilted her head.

「But you have gifts that nobody else has, like “Rebirth” and “Awakening”」3

Naoto pointed to the letters displayed at status on the stone tablet.

「I’ve never seen the gift status before, what kind of ability is that……」

Patiyu raised her eyebrows and pondered with a serious face.

「It must have meant that everything in the world was born one after another and it’s constantly changing over time.」

「As expected of Erika, you knew that word very well.」

Hearing Erika’s stagnant explanation, Yuki rolled her eyes and showed a little exaggerated surprise.

「Perhaps this gift of birth and rebirth has affected your status. Just like Aomi-sama can speak without her ring.」

Patiyu still looked worried, but Ryou was not that concerned.
