Wang Lei glanced at his status and smiled. He didn't know what he could achieve currently with <Word Magic> but he thought he will have enough chances to use it in this world. He looked towards Qingyue <Analyze>

Looking at her status Wang Lei nodded. It was pretty much the same as he thought but what shocked him was her class and her new affinity to all elements. He was happy for her as before he wanted to change her vein and give it all elemental affinity but was afraid of hurting her. But now he was wondering if he could do it with his <Word Magic>, which he thought he presumably could as it could alter and bend reality itself! 'I will try it on someone!' thought Wang Lei and looked at his surroundings. He hadn't paid much attention to his surroundings since he has come here.
Qingyue who was walking beside Wang Lei could feel changes in her body. She didn't know exactly what but she felt that she could control other elements now, and without any kind of rejection from them like before.
”Wow~ what the hell is going on?” Reichi Kondou, one of the Hiyama followers, said terrified.
Others also had terrified looks. They all stood close, hugging each other, to calm themselves. They, though terrified, followed after the pope as they walk down past the clouds and start to walk towards a great castle.
Shizuku, calmer than others, kept looking towards Wang Lei and Qingyue to see their reaction that was as bland as it could get. It was like they were neither terrified nor amazed, quite normal. She knows that, if anyone, then only Wang Lei know what Is going on. Not because he has said about a parallel universe or portal, though it was also one of the reasons, but because she knows that Wang Lei was not a normal person. Also, the one she was looking for!
Wang Lei felt her gaze and looked towards her and smiled.
Shizuku who saw him smiling felt buŧŧerflies in her stomach, shyly looking sideways. Kaori who saw her smirked. ”Well, isn't if our mother is in love!” She whispered. ”WHAT?! NO!” Shizuku who heard her shouted that made everyone stunned and look towards her. Shizuku blushed and coughed, ”What are you talking about Kaori!?” she said to Kaori in a light voice.
”Don't lie to me, Shizuku! Since that person has come, you have been looking towards him and smiling like an idiot! If that does not love then what is it?” Kaori said, cheekily.
Shizuku wanted to say something but was interrupted by the pope. ”We are here, O' Heroes of Ehit! Please follow us!”
'That's what we have been doing all along, old man!' Everyone though.
Pope took them inside the castle and showed them their seats that everyone took. With that, he started to explain how this world was attacked by heretic demons and how humans were about to be destroyed. So their god, Ehit, summoned chosen heroes from another world to help them in winning this war.
Wang Lei, who was sitting beside Qingyue, was silently listening to the bullshit that the pope was spouting without any break. He yawned and looked as Aiko stood up and started to ask to send them back as to how they are just students and blah blah. He thought it was time to leave this group of children. Just as he was about to stand up, the guy sitting beside him, Hajime stopped him, ”E-Excuse me!”
Wang Lei looked towards him and smiled, ”What is it, little Hajime?”
Hajime was surprised as Wang Lei knows his name but that was not important now, ”Did you knew this would happen?”
”I had! Isn't that's the reason I said I came for?” Wang Lei said, nodding.
Hajime who heard him was surprised and then remember that he, indeed, came for a portal to another world,” Then do you know a way to send us back!”
At this point, everyone's attention was on them. They were talking about how to save the world with Kouki when they heard Hajime's question and looked towards him.
”I do!” everyone was surprised and happy, ”But why would I do that? Do I have any obligations to help you or any other?” Wang Lei said, looking straight in Hajime's eyes. Others who heard him, especially Kouki became angry, ”How can you say that? Aren't we from the same world? If you have the way to help us, then you should!”
Wang Lei looked towards Kouki with amusement, ”Do you even know who you are talking to, little brat! Shout another time and I will make you understand that you are not in your peaceful world but a world where might makes right!” Wang Lei, when he read the novel in his previous life, he hated Kouki's character and personality. He had never read about such an annoying character in his whole life.
Kouki became angry when he heard him. He has lived his life hearing stories of justice from his grandfather, so he, himself, wanted to become someone who could help anyone in need. He thought that if you have power than you are obliged to help those who don't.
”Calm down everyone! And you should step back Kouki! What he said is right! Even if he has ways to send us back, he doesn't have obligations too!” Shizuku came between them, trying to calm Kouki.
Hearing her, others also calmed down. Now that they thought it was right as they have never met him nor they knew him. so why would he help them? If you want something, then you need to give something equivalent to it. Isn't that's how society worked? But that was not the thought of Kouki, who thought that having power means responsibility to save everyone. He steps before Shizuku.
”But if he has ways to send us back then he should! We humans should help each other in times of need!” Kouki said, making fists.
”Heroes calm down! This person is lying! Only Ehit-sama should be able to send you back!” Ishtar said. He didn't know what was going on at this point or why this human proclaimed that he could send them back.
Others who heard him thought that if only a god can send them back then, Wang Lei, who was a human shouldn't be able to send them back.
Wang Lei who heard him didn't say anything. He looked towards Hajime and sent him a message telepathically, 'Never leave your back to your classmates, little Hajime. Also, you shouldn't believe in the God bullshit as they are lying! If in the future, you think that this world is not worthy of you then come to find me!'
Hajime was confused by his message but he nodded, nonetheless. He just had a gut feeling that he could trust Wang Lei.
Wang Lei took Qingyue's hand and started to walk outside when he was stopped by Shizuku. ”Wait!”
Wang Lei looked towards her and asked, ”Yes?” he liked her character as she was one of the sensible people in this whole class.
Shizuku looked towards Wang Lei and blushingly said, ”Thank you for saving me previously!” she bowed.
Wang Lei became confused, ”I have saved you?”
Shizuku saw that he was bewildered said, ”You saved me from the kidnappers when I was little, right!?”
Hearing her Wang Lei had an epiphany. 'So she was the girl that I save in this world when I was arrested!'
