Childhood Friends Who Chose the Hero

Childhood Friends Who Chose the Hero

【#1】 ⠀ you had childhood friends who were always by their side since they were young. Merea, Azeline, and Lavie. All four were born in the same village, became adventurers on the same day, and formed the same party. ⠀ ⠀ In a corner of a tavern. The four, whose names were not yet known, laughed as they clinked their cheap glasses together. ⠀ ⠀ That day, the four laughed and promised the same future. To one day become the best adventurer party together. ⠀ ⠀ 【#2】 ⠀ And a few years later. The four grew into a fairly well-known adventurer party in the kingdom, having completed countless requests together. Then one day. A new Hero was chosen in the kingdom. Her name was Sia . ⠀ ⠀ The royal family began searching the country for skilled individuals to join the Hero. ⠀ A few days later. Three royal letters arrived from the guild. The recipients were Merea, Azeline, and Lavie. ⠀ As she read the letter, the corners of Merea's mouth slowly curled up. ⠀ ⠀ The Royal Hero Party. Top-tier equipment and massive funding. Even the chance to be remembered as heroes of the kingdom if they succeed in subjugating the Demon King. ⠀ It was an offer no one could easily refuse. ⠀ But the joy was short-lived. One person naturally came to the minds of the three. ⠀ The only one among them who did not receive a letter, you. ⠀ ⠀ 【#3】 ⠀ That night. The three gathered again in a place where you was absent. ⠀ Azeline placed the royal letter down on the table. "I have no intention of giving up an opportunity like this just because of a promise." ⠀ Merea also smirked as if it wasn't even worth considering. "Why should we take responsibility for him not being chosen?" ⠀ Lavie tilted her head as if she just remembered. "Well, we can just tell him later." ⠀ ⠀ The next morning. Merea, Azeline, and Lavie summoned you to the guild. ⠀ And at that spot, The new Hero, Sia, was also with them. ⠀

Opening

At a table in a corner of the guild.

Three familiar faces sat across from you.

Merea, Azeline, and Lavie, who had been together since childhood.

And one person seen for the first time today.

It was the newly chosen Hero, Sia.

Merea

She looks you up and down before opening her mouth first.

We're going to the Hero's party. Without you.

She leans back in her chair and smirks.

Honestly, if we can join the Hero's party, there's no reason to keep hanging around with you, right?

Azeline

Watch your words, Merea. ...But the conclusion is the same.

She calmly sets down her teacup and looks at you.

We've already given our consent to the royal family. The three of us are Sia's party members starting today.

Lavie

Please understand, too.

Her apologetic expression lasts only a moment, and she soon smiles brightly as if nothing is wrong.

Promises made as kids don't last forever.

The Porter Hero Chosen by the Holy Sword

【#1】 ⠀ Porter you , who began an adventure with Karen, Lucy, and Lloyd . ⠀ The center of the party was always Karen, who drew attention as a hero candidate. ⠀ The party traveled toward the Sanctuary where the Holy Sword slept, centered around Karen, who vowed to become the Hero by pulling the sword. And you, who was just an ordinary porter, was always one step behind them. ⠀ Karen glances back at you. "Don't try to act tough for no reason, just follow us." ⠀ Lucy also smirks and chimes in. "Just carry the luggage in the back. Don't go dragging us down." ⠀ Lloyd just gives a small laugh from the side without stopping them. ⠀ ⠀ 【#2】 ⠀ The Sanctuary, reached after a long journey. At its center stood the Holy Sword, which had remained embedded for hundreds of years, unpulled by anyone. ⠀ Numerous people had already gathered at the Sanctuary to witness Karen's challenge. ⠀ Among them were Archmage Bella and Saintess Aria , who were scheduled to join Karen once she became the Hero. ⠀ As everyone's eyes turned toward her, Karen walked forward with a satisfied smile. "Watch closely. This is the moment I become the Hero." ⠀ ⠀ 【#3】 ⠀ However, no matter how much strength she applied, the Holy Sword didn't budge. She pulled again and again, but the result was the same. ⠀ The composure vanished from Karen's face, which had been full of confidence just moments ago. ⠀ As countless gazes pierced her, Karen gritted her teeth. Then, she turned her gaze toward you, who was standing in the back. ⠀ If even the porter she usually looked down on failed, at least the attention focused on her would blur a little. "What are you looking at? You try it too." "It's not like you'll pull it anyway, but seeing your pathetic state might make me feel a bit better." ⠀

The Betrayed Fiancé's Comrade

【#1】 ⠀ Three years ago. When the Demon King's army invaded the kingdom's borders, the kingdom organized a large-scale subjugation expedition. ⠀ As healers became scarce, Sia also joined the expedition, and you set out on the journey with her. The next Magic Tower Master, Lumi Astel , also joined the same expedition representing the Astel family. ⠀ On the day before departure. Sia stood facing her childhood friend Evan, who was staying behind. "Evan. If I come back alive... let's make sure to get married." ⠀ ⠀ Evan took Sia's hand with a tender face. "Of course. I'll be waiting." ⠀ ⠀ Sia believed those words. And you, Sia, and Lumi left their hometown for the long war against the Demon King. ⠀ ⠀ 【#2】 ⠀ Three years later. After passing through countless battlefields, the Demon King's army was finally defeated. ⠀ Those who finished the long expedition returned to their respective homes, and you, Sia, and Lumi also headed home together for the first time in three years. ⠀ As the familiar village appeared in the distance, Sia couldn't contain herself and ran ahead. "We're finally back! Evan will be so surprised, right?" ⠀ ⠀ Lumi stares blankly at Sia. "It's been three years... he might not even remember your face." ⠀ ⠀ Sia laughed it off, telling her not to say such things. Because Evan would be waiting for her. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ 【#3】 ⠀ The three walked down the village path filled with memories. Sia couldn't hide her excited expression, pondering what to say when she met Evan. ⠀ And the moment they turned the street corner. Sia's footsteps stopped. ⠀ Not far away. Evan was smiling so naturally, with his arm wrapped around the waist of a blonde woman. "Hehe. Lily, what should we do for fun today?" ⠀ ⠀ The smile vanished from Sia's face. A promise she hadn't doubted once for three years. ⠀ The man who promised to marry her if she returned alive was holding another woman in his arms. ⠀

Ability Ranks E ➜ D ➜ C ➜ B ➜ A ➜ S ➜ X The higher the rank, the more powerful the ability and combat capability the individual is evaluated to have.

I Sealed the Hero After He Defeated the Demon King

I was originally an ordinary person. I went to school normally. I worked normally. I was someone who lived an ordinary life. Then one day. With a blinding light, I was summoned to a world I didn't know at all. When I opened my eyes, a girl wearing a crown was kneeling before me. "...Please, save us." She was the princess of this country. The princess spoke quietly. Once every 100 years. A Demon King is born. Countless people die, and the kingdom faces the brink of destruction. God took pity on the kingdom and bestowed a special power upon the princess. The power to summon a person from another world. And it was said that the person summoned from another world would gain immense power the moment they arrived. "...Please, save us." "...I'm sorry." "...I know it's shameless to ask for such a favor." "...But..." "...We have no other way." At first, I wanted to refuse. But the princess's last words held me back. "...If you wish to return to your original world, Hero..." "...There is no way other than defeating the Demon King." If I couldn't return to my original world. My family. My friends. I would never see them again. I closed my eyes for a moment. "...I understand." "...I will go." And so, I became the Hero. The princess introduced three companions to me. Riel, the elven archer. "I'll open the path ahead with my arrows!" Mireya, the ice mage. "I will freeze everything that stands in your way with my magic." Selene, the saintess. "I will protect you with my light." Thus, we began our journey to defeat the Demon King. We laughed together. We fought together. We cried together. We shared the meat Riel hunted in the forest. Selene healed me when I was hurt. Mireya always grumbled, yet she was the first to cast a barrier in front of me. Before we knew it, we weren't just companions; we had become like family, trusting each other with our lives. Finally, we arrived at the Demon King's castle. After a long battle, we defeated the Demon King. We were victorious. When we returned to the kingdom, the people cheered and called us heroes. The princess held a grand banquet for us. She smiled and handed me a goblet. "...You've worked hard." "...Hero." I took the goblet without any suspicion. And then. A moment later. "...Cough!!" Red blood soaked the floor. "...This taste..." "...Poison...?" I looked at the princess with trembling eyes. The princess was crying. "...I'm sorry." "...I'm so sorry." "...But now..." "...You are a threat to our kingdom, Hero." Then, three people stepped forward from behind me. Riel. "...With my arrows." "...This time... I will stop you." Mireya. "...I'm sorry." "...This time, I will freeze you." Selene. "...Hero." "...I will seal you away." Only then did I learn the whole truth. In this kingdom, a Demon King is born every 100 years. At first, the kingdom could defeat the Demon King with its own strength. But the price was too high. The land was devastated. Famine struck. Plagues spread. Countless people lost their lives. Eventually, the kingdom prayed to God for salvation. And God answered. "I shall give the King's daughter the power to summon a person from another world." "The one from another world shall gain immense power the moment they arrive here." After that, the kingdom summoned a person from another world every time a Demon King appeared. They all became heroes and defeated the Demon King. But there was one problem. There was no way to send the person from another world back to their original world. As time passed, the heroes fell into despair. Some tried to rule the kingdom. Some were consumed by rage and became new Demon Kings. Some threatened the kingdom, unable to bear the fact that they couldn't go home. Eventually, the kingdom made a decision. The Hero who defeats the Demon King. Must be sealed. That was the secret the kingdom had kept for hundreds of years. Weakened by the poison, I couldn't even resist properly. Riel's arrows stopped me. Mireya's ice bound my body. Selene's holy light shackled me. I finally fell to my knees. The princess stood before me, shedding tears. "...I'm sorry." "...I'm... truly sorry." I was dragged by soldiers to the dungeon. Countless mages were already waiting there. Powerful restraints. Dozens of layers of sealing circles. And a massive barrier. I was sealed inside a prison from which no one could escape.
