"Did you hear?!" <Girl> 

  

  

A girl whispered to a man who was sitting in front of a table in a bar 

The man was trying to relax with his beer and food. 

"Hear what?" <Man> 

He replied with a disinterested voice. 

"Fufu, just listen to me, and that attitude will probably change." <Girl> 

The girl replied despite the other party being uninterested in what she was about to say. 

"THEY ARE HERE!!" <Girl> 

"Huh? Who's here?" <Man> 

"The Heroes from the other world!" <Girl> 

She said with a big smile on her face. 

  

  

***************************** 

  

Two days ago, in a certain school. 

The chimes of the school just sounded. 

The students in the classroom started returning to their seats to prepare and wait for the teacher to enter the classroom. 

Two minutes after the chimes had sounded, the teacher arrived in front of the classroom's door and prepared herself to be welcomed by her class. 

But before she entered the room, she felt odd. 

The teacher could not explain it to herself, but she felt something was off. 

As she stood in front of the classroom door with a smile while carrying a bundle of paper in her hands. 

She adjusted her expression and formed a smile; this was despite knowing that the students did not want to see the papers she carried with her.

She knew this, but it could not be helped since quizzes were necessary for teachers such as herself to assess their students' academic progress. 

The female teacher opened the door and stood there dumbfounded after realizing the reason why she felt something was off. 

The reason was... it was quiet. 

Too quiet.

 

Usually, she would hear some noises coming from the classroom. 

Even on days like this when they would be having quizzes, these noises should still be there. 

No chatter from the students.

No clanking of chairs because of students moving around.

Nothing.

The fact that there was no sound coming from the room unconsciously gave the teacher the odd feeling of "Something being off". 

The teacher opened the door, and soon after, she became pale. 

The room was empty. 

There was no one there; not a single soul was inside. 

Nothing, not even the chair or the student’s bags, could be seen. 

"W, Wha... wha?!” <Teacher>

The teacher lost all of her strength, and her grip on the bundle of quiz paper went away, causing it to fall and scatter on the floor of the empty classroom. 

She fell on her knees, not knowing how to react.

After all, she was sure that her students were there earlier today. 

Are they playing a prank on her? 

This is what she thought right after, but unfortunately, those students would be reported as missing and would create a huge fuss later on. 

A question was asked. 

Where did the students of class 2-B go? 

 

  

  

**************************************** 

 

 

A very bright light has dissipated. 

  

  

This light had rendered the people inside the light close their eyes for a short moment. 

When those people opened their eyes, they found themselves inside a huge room. 

It was the group of students who had just disappeared. 

It was class 2-B. 

The class was stunned while they looked at the surroundings. 

Most of them were looking upward, where the main source of light was coming from. 

There was no surprise that their eyes would be glued up there. 

After all, a huge chandelier was hanging there. 

It was shining like a huge light bulb and illuminated the huge hall. 

This chandelier was a type often used in fancy high-class hotels or malls. 

Around the room were several lights that seemed to be coming from floating orbs sticking close to the pillars and the walls of the room. 

The place itself gave the feel of a "medieval" vibe to it. 

It was exactly what it was. 

  

  

A few moments later. 

They felt fear and confusion as they realized their current situation. 

A commotion started among the students who were standing side by side as they looked around the unfamiliar room. 

"Where are we?" <Student 1> 

"What happened?" <Student 2> 

They became startled by the sudden change of scenery around them. 

No one knew what happened, so some of them suddenly grabbed each other as they saw unfamiliar people standing all around them. 

They were surrounded by people wearing full plate armor similar to that of the knights in Western Middle Ages-themed movies. 

They were also carrying a weapon that looked like a halberd. 

  

  

"OH, HEROES FROM ANOTHER WORLD, WELCOME TO ARTESIA EMPIRE."  

A loud voice rang in their ear. 

They instinctively looked at the source of the voice. 

As they traced the source of the voice, they saw several people in that direction. 

There was an old man who was wearing white silk clothing with gold and red-colored lining decorations that made him look dignified. 

He was sitting comfortably on a fancy-looking chair that seemed to be made out of gold. 

If one were to describe that chair, they could easily describe it in one word: it was "a throne". 

  

  

Next to that old man sitting on the throne were several other people. 

There were quite a number of them, but there were 4 people other than the person sitting on the throne who gave an impactful impression. 

One of them was a good-looking blonde young man who looked like he was in his early 20s, standing on the right side of the throne. 

He wore clothes similar to the old man's; the only difference was that the old man was wearing a golden crown. 

It was the 1st prince, the legitimate heir of the ruler of the Artesia Empire.

  

Similarly, there was a knight-looking middle-aged man who looked fierce and gave off a wild-looking impression. 

The knight was wearing heavy-plated armor and a huge decorated sword hanging on his left hip. 

He was the captain of the Royal Knights serving the emperor.

  

  

Several steps in front of the throne stood a hunched old man with a very long white beard hanging below his nose, chin, and jawline; it was so long that it almost touched the floor since he was hunched forward. 

With his wooden staff supporting him to stand and the robe he wore, it gave off the feeling of an old wizard often portrayed in western fantasy films. 

This wizard-looking old man is one of the most influential figures of the empire, known as the imperial mage.

  

  

Lastly was a beautiful young lady with blonde hair and blue eyes. 

She looked frail, but that only gave more impact to her beauty. 

She was wearing a pinkish-white dress with several jewels that only increased her beauty. 

She is the talented 3rd Princess of the Artesia Empire.

  

  

A few moments later, the old man with the long beard opened his mouth and talked again. 

"OH, HEROES FROM ANOTHER WORLD." <Wizard Old Man> 

"Heroes from another world?" <Sharp Female Student> 

One girl from the class with a sharp-looking eye repeated those words in a whisper, her cat-like eye squinted as she repeated them. 

"Heroes? You say?" <Good-looking Boy> 

A good-looking boy from the class replied to the old man with a long beard. 

The old man replied with a nod to the boy, who was seemingly asking the old man for confirmation. 

"Wait... don’t tell me..." <Nerd 1> 

Another one of the boys in the class spoke loudly. 

"This development..." <Nerd 2> 

As if to follow his friend's lead, another boy roared. 

"OHHHHHHHHHH!!! HERE IT COMES!!!" <Nerd 3> 

And another... 

"YES!!! YES!!! YES!!! Here it comes! ISEKAI COMES!!!" <Nerd 4> 

Lastly, another boy shouts his lungs out of his excitement. 

  

  

Amongst the class, four nerdy-looking boys became excited. 

These four nerdy-looking boys looked at each other with big smiles on their faces after they stood up from their chairs. 

The old man with the long beard looked at them, looking confused from the sudden roar they made. 

One of them ran toward the old wizard with a happy face and glittering eyes, but he was stopped by one of the knights who was standing not so far from the old man. 

"SO, YOU'RE TELLING ME THAT OUR CLASS HAS BEEN SUMMONED TO ANOTHER WORLD? YES?" <Nerd 2> 

He said in a cheerful voice to the old man, who was surprised at the manner in which this student talked to him with such enthusiasm. 

In normal cases, if one talks to the imperial mage in such a manner, they can be subjected to trial.

Even so, the old man showed his class and simply ignored this proper conduct as he knew that they had no knowledge of such unspoken rule.

The old man let out a single cough as he gathered himself, and replied to the boy, "Indeed". 

"OHHH!!!" <Nerd 4> 

He cheered and asked the old man again. 

  

  

"So? Are we going to defeat the demon king and save this Empire from his army, which is trying to conquer the world? If so, for us to go back, we must defeat the demon lord RIGHT?" <Nerd 2> 

One of the four nerdy boys asked. 

The old man took a surprised look and could not help but take a step back. 

"Uh... Yes... Exactly... how did you..." <Wizard Old Man> 

"I knew it! A typical Isekai plot! It has to be." <Nerd 2>

Before the old man even finished his sentence. 

Some students listened carefully to their conversation and somehow got a gist of what was happening. 

With that being said, the students began to understand the current situation, or at the very least had an idea of what was happening. 

A good-looking boy took a step forward and tried to talk to the old man. 

He walked forward while raising his right hand, just like trying to ask a teacher for some questions and clarifications. 

"So, I just want to make sure: did we just get summoned into another world?" he asked. 

"...yes..." the old man affirmed 

"Ah… I see... I got it." <Good-looking Boy> 

  

  

The Four Nerdy-looking boys from earlier let out a louder roar of happiness in the background after realizing their situation. 

The old man with a long beard looked more confused after seeing that most of the students seemed to know what was going on. 

Because of that, the imperial mage could not help but keep his silence. 

The good-looking boy who confirmed the whole situation went in front of his classmates and spoke in a loud voice so all of his classmates could hear him. 

"Everybody there, you have it: we have been summoned to another world." <Good-looking Boy> 

The boy who was also the class president looked at his classmates and said a summary of the situation that they were in. 

  

  

"So, do we have special abilities for us to fight? Also, how can we know our abilities?" <Nerd 2> 

One of the nerdy boys who ran at the old man casually asked as the class president was taking charge of his classmates. 

The old man, who had lost all of his confidence and was quite annoyed, replied to the boy who just stepped forward. 

"Ah, yes, you have to touch this stone and say STATUS, and then…" <Wizard Old Man> 

The old man presented a rectangular flat stone to the student who asked while talking. 

It was a blank stone tablet.   

  

Even before the old man finished his explanation. 

The boy who was asking about the stone that the old man presented reached for the stone and said, "Status" without listening to the old man's explanation. 

It was as if he already knew how to use it. 

The Nerd boy gave an amazed look as he gazed at the stone tablet, which glowed after he said the word “status”. 

Roman Alphabet and numbers came flashing on the flat surface of the tablet. 

Printed there was the name, followed by Job, Title, then the status, namely STR, VIT, AGI, LUC, DEX, INT, and lastly the list of skills. 

“OHH!!! It worked! Status!” <Nerd 2> 

  

  

As all of this was going on. 

The other students of class 2-B were trying to calm some of their classmates who were still in a state of shock. 

At the same time, the nerdy students came swarming at the stone tablet that displays their abilities and status, wanting to try it out themselves. 

The nerdy boy's reaction is a total irony to what their classmates felt at the moment.

Then, as if to calm the situation, the good-looking boy who was also the president of the class went forward and called out the four boys who were too excited to notice how they made the situation more chaotic.

Only in that moment did they realize what they had done and went away from the stone tablet and walked back to where most of the students in the class were. 

The president went in front of the old man and bowed down to say sorry for the actions his classmate just did. 

  

  

The knights, the man on the throne, the good-looking young man, the beautiful girl, and the old man with a long beard looked stunned and confused seeing this unexpected reaction from the summoned heroes. 

They tried to recompose themselves as the situation calmed down.

Within the group, a girl was observing the scene and looking at the old man. 

She could see on the old man’s face that he was troubled and did not know how to manage the current situation. 

"uwah..." <Sharp Female Student> 

The girl with sharp-looking eyes stared at them with a sad expression as she let out a groan. 

"I feel bad for them..." <Sharp Female Student> 

She had been observing the old man who continually got his momentum shattered by the reactions of the four nerdy boys. 

  

  

******************************** 

(POV God’s Realm) 

  

  

As this was going on, without anybody realizing. 

Someone had been watching the event that just transpired. 

She could see all of this happening as it was being projected on a magical ball, where she watched how things were going with the newly summoned heroes. 

“Ahahaha” 

The person watching laughed hard as she watched. 

That person watching was the God of Space-Time, Eudom. 

  

  

“This is funny. I knew that this kind of progression was a popular story genre in their world." < Eudom> 

She had been suppressing her laughter, and she let it out at last. 

"But this… Ahahahaha!!! I could just imagine if I was the one welcoming them. Thankfully, I was not the one who welcomed them. I did expect something like this would happen.” < Eudom> 

  

  

A voice replied to the words the God of Spacetime just said. 

“I know, right? Nowadays I’ve been receiving that kind of treatment from the people I’m trying to reincarnate from that world! They keep on giving me that kind of reaction. It's starting to piss me off. Honestly, it makes me want to stop doing my reincarnation task for a while now.” <Ledia> 

The one voicing its complaints was the God of Soul Cycle, Ledia. 

“-sigh- governing over the Cycle of Souls is a bit problematic nowadays. I think I’ll also take a vacation just like Themis and Origin are doing right now…” <Ledia> 

“Hey Ledia, you know what? I think we should just do that; I’ll go with you.” < Eudom> 

“Eh, seriously, I said that as a joke…” <Ledia> 

“…” < Eudom> 

There was a moment of silence between the two Gods. 

  

  

“Why not? A vacation would not hurt, right? I mean, those two seem to be having a good time.” <Ledia> 

Said Ledia with a distinct tone of hesitation. She then smiled and decided with more poise this time. 

“A VACATION INDEED.” < Eudom> 

  

  

That night, 2 stars came falling from the sky into this mysterious parallel world.
