Chapter 5:
『For Me, Teleportation Is the Worst Power, Because I Want to Be a Normal Rising Hero—Not Someone Who Skips the Struggle and Starts Overpowered』
The next day, Chelsea told me I was going to get my adventurer’s card, which helps one know their stats and other stuff like that. She said I was also going to get my Scan skill, which enables one to get a grasp of their own and their opponents' abilities, and all, must have been how I saw their stats before. So we all left the mansion, leaving Glass, Choji, Alex, and Elsa to protect it, and headed to the Basilisk Union Group of Guilds, B.U.G for short.
It is the most renowned, influential, and powerful guild around the continent. Chelsea mentioned that the guild is half as powerful as the five great nations on the continent, meaning the smaller nations don’t stand a chance against them.
We arrived at their national headquarters in the commercial capital of the kingdom, Tragos, the fifth-largest non-capital state on the continent and the biggest in the kingdom. We entered the building, and I was redirected to a room to check my stats and stuff… All I can say is that I got another trope in a very important category.
Name-Shinta Irashime Age-19 Level-0 HP-100/100 Soul HP-200/200
Power Level-30 Resistances- Spatial Attacks, Chrono Attacks, -Inaccessible-,-Inaccessible-,
-Inaccessible-. Affinities- Space Magic, Time Magic, Void Magic.
It looks normal at first, except for the "Inaccessible" part, but the real shocker is the glitch in my MP stats. Ordinarily, every hero summoned is a power level of thirty and that is gotten from adding their stats from attack, defense, MP, strength, speed, and IQ.
That is five for each at the beginning, making them that power level of thirty, but for some reason, my MP is 20,000, meaning it is on par with S-rank mages.
However, it still reads level zero, and my power level is still thirty. This means I have a low chance of running out of MP at the beginning stage, which sucks, and worse, I can still "develop" it. Soon after, I met with the others and told them about it before we headed back.
Ω
When we got to the mansion, I headed straight to my room to get some rest, but was later on disturbed by Nu, who just dashed into the room and pounced on my bed, with her annoying little sister voice all shaky and stuff.
“Great Shinta, Heros Agrion, is coming. They may want to m-me-m-meet you, I’m scared,” she said, pulling the sheets over her head
“What?! Who are they?" I asked as I got out of my bed. "And why are you scared?”
“That is Boss’ younger sister’s group and our rivals.” She continued agitated.
It must be because of me, I mean, Aro said something about adventurers wanting me to join them; there have been others recently, mostly yesterday. I even remember an all-girl B-rank group Nu was part of coming to ask if I could join them.
But I guess these are a problem, seeing how scared Nu was. Nu and I went downstairs, and it turned out that Elsa already spotted them, well, her barrier did.
We all went outside to meet them. There are seven members in the group, each one par with Alex’s group. The only thing is that there is but one problem, the group has seven women. Another problem is that the leaders of Heroes Wild are Alexia Band and Charlotte Rice, Alex's sister and former betrothed, respectively. The conversation started with a little female-looking Alex greeting me.
“Good day, Lord Shinta," she said, bowing down. "My name is Alexia Band, and the name of our team is Heros Agrion. We came over to welcome you into Ranzia and to ask if you would like to join our...”
“Alexia, how are things going for your team? Didn’t you see me?”
“Elder Brother, I am just here to meet Lord Shinta, not you.”
This must be some sibling rivalry. I wanted to say, but kept to myself
“How rude, even for me, who it is not directed to.”
The last statement was from Chelsea, whose presence was starting to leak out a bit.
“Either way, Sister Charlotte, would you mind telling us what you want with Shinta?” asked Chelsea, calming down.
“Do you not know, little sister? The hero is to work with us, by the divine revelation of the Great goddess of Summons and Seals, Bella.” Said a human girl with black hair packed into a ponytail, which went down to her waist, and green eyes, she looked similar to Chelsea if it weren’t for the difference in hair colour and eyes.
“Her revelation said the hero shall join the party that has members with the hero’s blood.” Interjected Choji, smiling.
“Huh, what do you mean hero’s blood?” I curiously asked
“Shinta, there was a point around two millennia ago, when the three heroes decided to stay and start a life here, Lord Harald Band, Lord Hillary Rice, and Lord Phil Cristiano. Along the line, some of their descendants got into the political system of this kingdom and the Republic of Forth south of here," Choji casually explained. "Master Band and Master Rice’s descendants stayed here while Master Cristiano’s descendants moved to Forth. This makes it so that Alex, Alexia, Charlotte, and Chelsea have heroes’ blood flowing in them.”
Is that why the dukes want their kids to marry, to make the offspring strong... what am I thinking about, there is a problem before me. The situation is currently this bad, I hope we can solve it non-violently.
