{Status Viewing}
{Back to the flashback}
"Yes, I do" said Ichigo with a voice which echoed through out the room
"Hoo~ so what is mighty(not yet) brave" said the plump king looking down on us like literally, we were in the centre of the room and the king in front of us sitting on a high throne how could he not
"Is it necessary to fight against the Demon King?" said Ichigo
"Yes, that is your objective and if you don't complete it you will never be able to return to you world"
"Huh?"
"As I said if you do not kill the Demon King you will be able to return to you world"
"the classic isekai plot" whispered Ichigo
"Did you say something mighty brave?"
"Ah nothing, though-" and another interruption from the one and only ME!!!
"WHAAT!!!! WHAT DO YOU MEAN WE HAVE TO KILL DEMON KING TO GO BACK!!"
"Hey, dont raise your voice infront of the king" said the buff, iron plated man beside the king who's name is Craig Shineblade and the Captain of the Royal Knights.
"Sorry, but is this the only way we can go back?"
"We do not know this for certain but that it is what the legends say... now we delayed the status viewing far to too long so let's start already" said the king revealing his impatience not letting us ask another question
I looked at my friends and they all had a sad look in their face probably missing their friends and family (also video games) but wait is this a grin that I see in Ichigo face... Nah~ probably imagining it.
and that's when the main act started...
We were meant to go towards the sphere and place our hand on the sphere then a translucent screen will appear with out stats, sounds simple right? cuz IT IS but we were all scared so no one took a step towards the sphere until Akeno chose to, she was also the shyest of us all but she chose swallow it all up and go
'go girl!!' said internally soon after kabunga the promised screen showed up

Name: Akeno Himejima
Titles: Glued Bookworm, Summoned Brave
Class: Sage
Species: High Human
Level: 3
Str:6 Agi:5 Dex:7 Con:8 Int:47 Wis:59
Skills: (Analyse lv.5) (Cooking lv.4) (Beginner Fire Magic lv.1)
Unique Skills: (Advanced Fire Magic Talent) (Flame King's Blessing) (Sage's Wisdom)
--------------------------------------
People became shocked and you could hear "wow" escaping from people's mouths
Me and my buds all confused until the king explained some stuff to us, it was really long, so to summarise:
First was the Species, Akeno is a High Human meaning an evolved version of a Human which can be achieved from hard work or a higher being blessed her making her in to a High Human. There are also other evolution but that's for another time, though Mankind (meaning Humans, Elves and Dwarves) don't have many evolution.
Titles are what people called you something like that, they are useless unless you are trying to find out someone's identity.
Next are classes. Classes don't really have a ranking so it all depends on the person but they also evolve if you complete some conditions sometimes they can also fuse with other classes, you can also change your class but it will take you ages. Now onto Blessed Classes, they classes that are evolved through getting blessed by a higher being, sadly they cannot evolve but they do give a Unique Skill and a slight status boost, and Sage is a blessed class but you also get it through hard work.
There are also levels and here people level up by doing stuff that their class specialize in like for example a Blacksmith won't level up from killing a dragon it will only level up if it does blacksmithing, and Swordsman will level up from killing or sharpening it's skills stuff like that.
Skills are just skills no need for explaining.
And last but not least UNIQUE SKILLS they are just skill that are hard to get by normal means so meaning you might have to get blessed (not again) or evolve or face some hardships. For some reason here they have a ranking depending on how many Unique Skills but it ends at 4 Unique skills as it's actually impossible to get more than that.
End of explanation!! Back to the flashback.
.
Akeno ran back to us and went back to holding my arm.
So next went Ren she did the same that Akeno did nothing was different except for the fact that she was pretty excited.

--------------------------------------
This time they were in utter shock even I was
"4 Unique skills" mumbled the king "2 UNIQUE SKILLS IT'S A HERO!!" yelled the king then claps and cheers filled the room when I came back to my friends Ren looked at me with a gaze of jealousy and the knights had a sense of admiration while the others... they were just happy.
Next went Ichigo with a status screen that surprised them all so surprised they nearly died of shock.

--------------------------------------
Silenced filled the room this time
The king cleared his throat "WHAT IS THIS!!" he yelled with extreme anger making his fat belly jiggle a bit
"I have no idea, Your Majesty, lets try this again" said the blue robed man
So Ichigo took of his hand and placed back on the sphere
and nothing changed the same screen with the same letters showed up.
So let me explain what just happened, Ichigo didn't get blessed so he got lower stats and didn't get evolved neither did he get a blessed class but he still has a good stat for a normal human, if he went to the Adventurer's Guild (yes, they have those) he will be at least be a C-rank which is high but the king is not satisfied with this as it might weight down the Brave party(that's the adventurer party that we are in)
And Battle Clown class is a class combination with a combat class and the Clown class well it kinda suits him as he's always called the clown of the class and he also does boxing as a hobby. But there are some strange stuff like some of his skills and his titles well we all have weird titles except me ahahahah, but Wood Father? he's not even old enough to be married yet and I don't remember him liking boring stuff like woodwork. I'll have to ask him about this. Though the weirdest thing is the skill (Jack Lantern's Experiences) nobody knew what this skill was and-
{the flashback was interrupted}

It's nice sunny day in a luscious garden next to mansion and in it there's a young man laying down under a big and healthy tree.
Who is this young man? you might ask, Well it is none other than ME, Ken Yagami.
Shocked right? I know I look sexy look at those muscles and that straight hair line(which you don't have) plus that stunning face. ehhehe
.
"Hey what are you day dreaming about" said bending Akeno getting really close to my face.
"Ahh!!! that scared me!" said me with a flustered face (obviously like any Japanese virgin in an anime would)
"Aw look at you being so innocent" said Akeno pulling my cheek
I find Akeno weird she acts shy around stranger but she's a completely different with friends.
"HEY WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO KEN!!" yelled Rei rushing towards us (I think I was a bull for a second)
"Kyaa" screamed Akeno in a mockingly
"Is Ichigo not out yet?" said I, interrupting the childish fight between Akeno and Rei
"No not yet" said Rei sadly looking at the ground "Ichigo has been in his room since a month ago, It's kinda sad to see him like this"
Then everyone got sad.
Ichigo locked himself in his room for sometime after taking a few books from the Royal Library (we all got permission to go there) I find this really weird since he was never someone that would read books well he was neither a muscle head but he did play games that made him kind of normal though he did like punching and slapping stuff so yeah... don't know about that.

{somewhere}
In a messy room with clothes, a few books thrown around and the curtains barely any light shining through but there lantern was turned glowing on a brown haired young man with a muscular physique not so muscular that you would call him a macho and a face slightly better than average.
They young man was reading a book and then let a few words out "Oh~ Ken Yagami, my justice-drived friend, you got deceived"
