Prologue (Act)

Is this Hero for Real? chapter 2

Prologue (Act)

The fantasy world consists of one continent, Pangaea, which looks like a hot dog.

At the western end of such a continent lies a beautiful port town called Sanctuary.

City of Beginnings, Prologina!

The pure white temple built in the center has been noisy for a long time.

"Wow!"

"Awesome..."

"Oh my God!"

"awesome..."

The high school students summoned in the middle of the temple turned their heads left and right and exclaimed in exclamation.

Was it because of asking the goddess about this and that before coming here?

Instead of being confused, they were busy looking around like foreign tourists.

Until I heard the voice of a proud woman.

"We sincerely welcome the warriors who came to the Fantasia dimension."

"Another beauty..."

"goddess...?"

"Isn't it a saint?"

"pretty..."

The reaction of the boys was honest.

But the girls were not in a position to criticize them either.

"Look behind me."

"Why? Huh?! Wow!"

"Really handsome..."

"Is it the prince?"

This is because he fell in love with the handsome boy who was waiting behind the woman who welcomed the students.

Whatever the reason, the woman confirmed that the heroes' eyes were focused on her and opened her mouth again.

"I am a saint who received an oracle from the goddess and was waiting for you in the temple."

A woman who introduced herself as a saint and roughly introduced herself without her name stood slightly to the side.

Then the boy, who had attracted the attention of the female students, bowed politely and introduced himself.

"It is an infinite honor to meet the legendary warriors. My name is Arsus Swordmaster, the first prince of the Swordmaster Kingdom that rules the northern territory of this temple."

"You are a real prince!"

"Isn't that a dream?!"

Prince Arsus gives a wonderful smile to the enthusiastic female students.

However, the heat was broken at once by a sudden noise.

bang-!

The girl who appeared with the door of the temple, which should be quiet, opened with a force to destroy it, shouted with tears in her large eyes.

"I'm really sorry! I overslept with a hangover, so stop...!"

"… Princess Ethena. Your honesty is both an advantage and a disadvantage. There was no need for me to gossip."

"Yes?! What mistake have I made?"

Kwadang!

The girl, who was running with her head tilted cutely, stepped on her skirt and glided coolly.

is it ok?

However, as if betraying everyone's worries, the girl stood up casually and was busy making excuses.

"The floor of the temple is slippery! I'm pretty sure I haven't fallen over all the way here!"

When no one responded, the girl's face turned red like a blush.

But that was only for a moment, and the boys began to get very excited.

"cute!"

"You are cute!

"Princess, cute!"

"Long live fantasy!"

The knights and priests around them frowned at the attitude of the warriors, which could not be found as courtesy.

However, since the saint and the prince, who were the chief executives, were silent, they did not show any further action.

A little bit embarrassed by the rudeness (2) that even a girl is experiencing for the first time.

"Uh… um. thank you?"

"Wow!"

"Wow!"

Seeing her innocent reaction, the boys became even more frenzied.

Did you decide that no matter how long you wait, it will not proceed?

The saint's patience was not infinite like the goddess.

"She is Ethena Archmazing, the princess of the Kingdom of Archmaging who rules the land south of the temple. Together with Prince Arsus, she will support your adventures."

"Oh oh!"

"Wow!',

Cheering voices were heard everywhere.

If I were to go on a school trip with the idol I admired, would this be the case?

However, not everyone took advantage of this atmosphere.

[Name] Oh Han-woo

[Level] 1

[Blessing] Brave Head

[curse]-

[Dividend] 0.64

"What is the curse… ?"

Oh Han-woo, a hero who prides himself on mastering fantasy novels, comics, and games.

He wanted to get ahead of others like a fantasy creation 'the main character'.

So, I'm trying hard to open the 'Status Taechang' that hasn't been explained yet by myself.

Prince? Princess?

You can meet any number of people who become stronger by raising your level and skills.

It's a waste of time to go crazy like those idiots and try to win the favor of princes and princesses!

Oh Han-woo checked the status window one by one by poking it with his fingertips.

"First, let's take a look at the protection of the hero."

[Warrior]

►The language of the race friendly to the warrior is automatically translated.

►Experience gained through hunting and achievements is greatly increased!

Experience greatly increased?

I do not know the exact efficiency of that 'broad', but if there was no level limit, it was a really deceptive effect.

A function that automatically translates languages ​​would also be useful.

What if there's only one thing?

It is said that there are many 'competitors' around who received the protection of the hero.

Among them, there were a few who were particularly concerned.

"Lady. The Goddess told us to receive God's blessing, what should we do?"

Choi Kang-min.

This handsome boy didn't show it outwardly, but he was very pleased with the current situation.

At home, at school, at school, at home...

Everyone complimented his looks and talent, but he wasn't satisfied!

He stands shoulder to shoulder with his humble peers and is fed up with a society where they are treated equally.

On the other hand, what about this world?

It is an unequal society that discriminates against people based on class and ability.

It was an unkind and difficult world for the elderly, but Choi Kang-min did not care at all.

Because he was the 'hero' chosen by the goddess!

So he was sure.

The world of Fantasia is a stage prepared just for me.

"Good question, warrior. In order to be blessed by God, you must be pleasing to God."

"how..."

"The standards are different for each god, but it is clear that the gods are looking for a timber to defeat the Great Demon King. Did you get an answer?"

"Enough."

Choi Kang-min was satisfied.

From an objective point of view, he was the person most suited to defeat the Great Demon King.

Class leader Yu Bo-ra was a little concerned, but in the end, she was a woman. No matter how good her brain is, she cannot fight properly with her weak body.

If the gods were sane, they wouldn't be interested in women...

"A certain male god is looking at me with joy"

『A certain impatient demon looks at you with joy』

"Some evil spirit is looking at me with joy"

"Some innocent goddess asks what she sees"

『Advice for a friend that you do not need to know any reception』

"What kind of god…"

A feast of messages that suddenly appeared without notice!

Confused, Choi Kang-min didn't even have time to ask the saint, and the surroundings became noisy.

"What is this message?"

"What god? God...?"

"Really God? this?"

All the students and the hero were looking at the same scene.

As a saint put her hands together in prayer and singing, she said.

"It is invisible, but the gods are watching the dragon warriors. They pass on to the trust as they do now."

"God? really?"

"Is this God?"

"But keep in mind that their interest is not permanent. I wish you all the blessings of God."

"excuse me! What if I don't get any blessings?"

One of the students asked in a very annoying tone.

At this, the saint smiled ecstatically and asked.

"Should I even care about the garbage?"

The adventure in a fantasy world full of dreams and hopes has begun!

Damn it! If I had known such a future would come, I would have worked hard!

I was running through a dark forest.

"Huh!"

My breath hit my chin, but I couldn't stop walking for even a second.

It is because they know well that the moment they stop, they will face a terrible end.

"meat! Human meat!"

"My lunch!"

"meat! Stop!"

Two-legged hyenas were chasing after me with crude weapons.

A hyena who can use tools, jump on two legs, and even speak like a human?

Life that does not exist on Earth.

It was clear evidence that I could not return to my home planet Earth.

Tick, tuck, tuck-

If I hadn't protected my head with a bag, I would have collapsed with a concussion after being stoned by them.

Dangerous! It's really dangerous!

I am not a marathon runner. It was self-evident that if I went on like this, I would get tired and collapse first.

"Think, think, Kang-su...!"

If you don't want to get inside those hyenas, you'll have to use some kind of magic miracle.

magic (魔法).

If this was Earth, it would be a futile idea, but I was still staying in the fantasy world as a trick of the evil goddess.

Anything is fine, please...!

[Name] Kang Kang-soo

[Level] 1

[Blessing-

[Curse] Brave

uh? did it really come out?

Personal information displayed like a translucent hologram in front of my eyes.

It must have been the status window that the evil goddess explained.

There must be a way out here.

"… is not it?"

When I looked at the 'Hero' in the curse list in the status window, nothing but a disappointed laugh came out of my mouth.

[Warrior]

＞The language of the race hostile to the hero is automatically translated.

＞Experience gained from hunting and achievements is greatly reduced!

A curse united with malice to bury me in a fantasy world!

The importance of 'level' in the game system is equal to life. But what about applying a permanent penalty to experience, which is a prerequisite for leveling up?

It is no different than giving up the status window, the flower of the fantasy world.

"Language features too… "

This seemed like a good effect, not like a curse, but in practice, it wasn't necessarily the case.

"Give me a heart!"

"meat! Human meat!"

"Let's chew the bones!" How those fantasy hyenas would cook me was being broadcast live in real time.

Throbbing!

Hearing this just put a strain on my heart.

An unwelcome translation for me, who was born and raised in a peaceful country on Earth, where it is safe as long as you are careful about traffic accidents.

"Meat lovers! With our conversation...!"

"Lunch said?!"

"meat! Talking meat!"

"Let's eat and talk!"

Even normal conversations through language thanks to the curse were another matter.

"Heh heh, heh heh..."

The world began to look yellow as I was out of breath.

A bleak alarm that my stamina was approaching its limit.

Am I burying my bones in the fantasy world like this?

mother, father. Forgive this filthy child who goes first. It's all because of the damn evil goddess...

□? □□ □□ □!"

"□ □! □!"

At that moment, many shouts were heard from inside the dark forest.

What are you saying?

Piyong- Whoops!

"Ouch?!"

My legs were twisted in intense pain, and I screamed and rolled over the dirt floor.

arrow?! Are you really sick?! I saw an arrow lodged in my right thigh.

If you're lucky or unhappy...

"fairy! Fairy meat!"

"Up the tree! Cowardly Fairy!"

"It's an arrow! New lunch!"

The fantasy hyenas left me incapacitated and rushed towards their new prey all at once.

"□□! □!"

"meat! Fairy meat!"

"My fairy! meat poem"

There was a word that was heard most often after 'meat' in the mess.

Fairy (D fl.

A fantasy race that appears as a regular in the fantasy world.

no. That's pretty good

"ね! Damn savages!"

Attacking civilians being chased by cannibals!

Even if you can't understand the language, you can't do this if you are a civilized person with normal thinking.

I used the gap between the fairies and the hyenas to hide behind a large tree.

I know.

That this place is not safe at all.

However, there was nothing I could do in this desperate situation, when I was physically exhausted and even injured my leg.

Shall we even pray to God?

"No."

The culprit that caused me to become like this is the goddess, who am I praying to?

A strong human being, I will choose death as I pray to God.

"A certain god is meticulous"

...What's this?

The body reacted before the head.

"Help me!"

Kang Kang-su, a human being, if I can be filial to my parents, I will do anything!
