Isekai ni kanaderu densetsu ~toki wo tomeru mono~ Chapter 5 (1/2)

When the blinding white light faded, I opened my eyes and find myself standing in a huge room covered with luxurious decoration. Below my feet, a magic formation that s.h.i.+nes with every step can be seen. When I looked around, all the guys from the cla.s.s are present.All of them had an expression of surprise or astonishment.

「What’s this!? What was that rumbling!?」

「This isn’t the cla.s.sroom!? What kind of place is this?」

「What’s happening? I’m scared!」

「This is a dream…isn’t it?… What kind of phenomena is this?……」

As expected. In my case, I can accurately grasped the situation because of my talk with grandpa G.o.d in tea-ceremony room, the other guys’ senses must be still in the cla.s.sroom right now. When they opened their eyes and found themselves other than the cla.s.sroom, it’ll naturally cause a great confusion.

「Heroes, please welcome to the Garuzu kingdom!」

Suddenly, in a slightly faraway place at the front came an unfamiliar voice, there stood a magician-like old man wearing a white robe. Behind him, stood more than 10 people wearing the same white robe. They all held a staff-like thing.

Ah……while looking at the old man, I felt that I really came to a different world.

「Where on Earth is this? What’s happening? Is this your doing?」

I tried to remain calm as much as possible but Sawaki who was still confused called out to the old man. As expected of Sawaki, even in an unknown situation like this, still took the role of the leader of the cla.s.s. This fellow is really fit to be a hero. Well, old man in a robe,what’s with the「Please welcome」. To begin with, this is kidnapping. Let’s see how the old man answer.

「The answer to your first question, this is a different world called Asgard and you’re summoned as a hero. And this place is called Garuzu kingdom governed by Maxim the Great, His Majesty the King.」

「W-what are you talking about? This isn’t Earth? Please, stop joking around.」

「I’m not joking around. I’ll answer your second and third questions, the people of this kingdom want you to save Regulus continent from the brutal and unjust hand of the great demon king. Thus, we summoned all of you, heroes from another world!」

The guys from the cla.s.s began to make a fuss.

「B*lls.h.i.+t! Return us to our original world quickly!」

「That’s right! It’s impossible for us to do such a thing!」

「Can’t you just let us return quickly!?」

「It’s the great demon king. There isn’t any justice to confront such an extremely dangerous guy!」

「Hero?…… We’re just high school students. We……」

Yup. This is the normal reaction. If they found out that they can’t return, I wonder what they’ll do. I thought the kingdom will hide the fact with every effort. While ignoring everyone, they declared「Great!」casually. This is more like dictators.h.i.+p. More than that, they aren’t seem interested in Sawaki who became silent since a little while ago.

「That…… this isn’t really Earth? Besides, subjugating the great demon king as a hero?……」

Sawaki is murmuring something to himself……. it’s a little eerie. He’s reaction is different from everyone else’s.

「The one in the robe, I have a request. Please, let me meet His Majesty the King.Everything will be decided after that. Everyone! Though I understand you’re a little confused, let’s calm down a little. This situation will not progress if we do nothing.」

「U-understood. This will certainly not progress if we do nothing.」

「If Sawaki-kun says so……」

「For the time being, let’s meet His Majesty the King!」

Whoa. Though I don’t understand what happened, everyone gathered with Sawaki’s words.The heck, it’s useless to progress the situation. Didn’t you guys want to return home? I think, it’ll be more difficult to do that when you meet His Majesty the King. Well, I want to leave this country as soon as possible but I’m quite interested to see the face of the alleged ‘great king’. I want to confirm if you’re just some arrogant King.

「Ee. But of course. Heroes, please meet our King by all means, since He is originally the one who’ll determine if you’re worthy to save this Kingdom. So, please follow me.」

「Very well. It’s natural to meet the King as a Hero.」

What? T-this guy Sawaki said「as a Hero」just now. Didn’t he declared「Everything will be decided after meeting the King」just a few minutes ago? His Hero self already came out.

「Saotome-kun…… what will happen to us……?」

「Saotome-kun is very calm even such times. I feel somewhat relieved~」

On the way to the throne room, Ebihara Kotomi and Segawa Chinatsu spoke to me. Come to think of it, I’m summoned when I was talking to this two. I’m different because I met grandpa G.o.d, this two must have been overwhelmed with fear like the rest of the cla.s.s. I have to give them courage as a man.

「Ebihara-san……it’ll be okay. We are summoned as Heroes. I think, they will not treat us badly. Segawa-san……if you can be relieved by being near me then stay with me for a while.

「Th-that’s right! A hero. I felt a little relieved. Thanks!」

「Oh! Can I stay by your side?」
