Reaping Controversy

"Haah… how could you forget your own name?" asked Amiru in a condescending tone.

Sakamoto's words that he didn't remember who he was startled the four people there. They became surprised, what happened to Sakamoto actually.

"Are you sure that you don't remember your name?" Zuru wanted to make sure that the boy just didn't remember his name.

"I don't really remember who I am, and why I'm here. Do you guys know me?"

Amiru, Zuru, Adred, and Haru looked at each other. They are confused about how to explain the actual situation they are also confused.

"Huh… well let me say it!" Adred said with a confident smile. "All of us who are here entered into a fantasy world. You can see earlier, didn't you, it was still the royal era here. There are no smartphones, computers, or the internet here, only magic and sword fighting. Just like in the game world!"

"I agree!" Amiru raised her index finger. "In other words we were summoned to this world to save it from current problems, such as threats from the Demon King or natural disasters caused by supernatural processes."

"Yes, what is clear now is that we have to do what fate has given us!" Adred stood with his hands on his hips.

Inside the throne room, King Aaron felt extremely astonished. With his ministers, he discussed what was happening.

"Your Majesty, will this matter not be a disaster?" asked one of the ministers, whose name was Vilion.

Aaron was pensive, his head resting on his fist. "I think this is a bad sign because there can't be five children. Even though there should only be four people who managed to be summoned to this world!"

"I agree! Was there a mistake during the ritual process?" Vilion asked Nazren.

Nazren is the chief wizard of the kingdom. He was ordered to summon people from another world, which later served as hope for the kingdom so that it could avoid the conflicts that occurred.

Nazren gave a sad look, this old man is already 150 years old. It was natural for him to look at people so withered.

"Y-Your Majesty, I'm pretty sure that there was no mistake in the summoning! It's just that maybe this time the case is a little very different!" Nazren couldn't explain more.

His words made the ministers and kings confused. Those who do not have magic power can only digest using logic without knowing what the meaning of the events that occurred.

Since 400 years ago the world has experienced a very long war. The war involved all nations and their goal was the same which was to fight the Demon King's Army. The Demon King's cruelty really made the world very miserable, then a great magician named Zeying performed a summoning ritual.

From the ritual emerged 4 knights who became heroes and succeeded, defeating the Demon King. After many years the legend is still preserved as an ancestral heritage that must be told to future generations.

After 400 years had passed, now to be precise for the last 20 years the world was shaken by the appearance of a new Demon Lord.

The Demon King's name was Nova. Since Nova's appearance the monsters have become active, and they have taken control of the eastern continent. The continent that was once a place of peace is now the territory of demons.

Demon Lord Nova is currently carrying out a large-scale invasion of the southern region and the Scaevola Kingdom is part of the southern region.

The kingdom that has the largest population for the Human race. Here only humans can live, creatures other than humans will only be helpers and servants.

The Scaevola kingdom was filled with women from the Beast Human race. They are used to satisfy lust, or just to be an emotional outlet.

Aaron was silent, he had enough to mess around with the conflict. Several times the left index finger hit the table. Everyone could only be silent, no one dared to speak.

They knew very well that if King Aaron was upset, he would do just that, pouting lips with a straight gaze straight ahead. What Aaron saw was Nazren.

"Nazren, can you guarantee that the five people you summoned will be able to save this country?"

"Excuse me! I'm just a magician who follows the guidance of the old wizards. I myself can't say for sure that they are humans who have great power that can help us solve the problems!"

They looked at each other. Aaron really didn't like Nazren's words which seemed unable to convince him.

"Tuk!"

A strong snap of Aaron's index finger made the silence of the room quite tense.

"OK! It seems we have no other choice. Tomorrow we will test them."

The discussion was then closed.

Nazren went straight to his room. On his chair, he gazed pensively at the night moon shining brightly.

"Is this really a good sign?" Nazren had an anxiety that he couldn't express in front of everyone.

The restlessness was directed towards one man.

On the other side, when everyone fell asleep with a smile on their faces. Sakamoto sat contemplating in front of the moonlight that shone on his face. His eyes became very bright.

"What will happen to me, huh?" Sakamoto continued to feel a strange feeling that was hard for him to explain. "I don't know what my name is. But how come they can remember who they are. What's really wrong with me?"

Not for a long time in the sky seen the stars that passed. Sakamoto's pupils dilated.

"Right, I might be able to use that name!" Sakamoto stood up from his seat. A happy smile etched on his face. "No matter what, I will definitely become a useful person!"

The next day…

They had been gathered in a large field, around which were several wooden dolls.

"Alright, let me explain why you guys are here!" Vilion became the officer to watch over them. "Over there!" Vilion's hand pointed at the weapons that had been stacked very neatly, the weapons consisted of spears, swords, arrows, staffs, and hammers.

"Your job is to pick up one of the weapons whichever suits you best. When you're done come back here, I'll explain later!"

The five men began to approach the pile of available weapons. All weapons are made of ordinary iron, except for the staff which is specifically for those who are talented in using magic, but the orbs used are only ordinary orbs which are sold very cheaply.

The eyes of the five children became extremely amazed by the real weapon they had just seen.
