A room filled to the brim with the smell of blood.

The figure of someone screaming.

The loud laughter of a stern man.

I looked at such a spectacle as if my mind wasn ’t here.

”Hyaha! The wound is disinfected—-!! ”

”Uwaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!! ”

This is by no means a disinfection of germs using fire.

This here was just a disinfection of a wound of a solider.

……Wawawa (Hahaha)? What else does it look like?

”Injured person kidnapped—-!! ”

”Kyaaaaaaaaaahhh!! ”

Just right now this blockhead… Noppo-san, he didn ’t kidnap a woman but rather is just carrying an injured person.

He ’s not acting like a bandit and trying to rob and sell her.

That ’s why I don ’t understand why this female soldier is crying.

”Oioi, you… what is this arm? You ’re not trying to hide it from me right you sow!! I ’ll treat it for you yaa!! ” (TN: Sow as in female swine, pig, buta-yarou)

”So-sorryy!! ”

This situation was not strange at all.

After all, if you leave an injury untreated, various strange germs can enter.

It ’s not like it ’s a shakedown you know?

But well, my men are amazing I have to say.
……Even the crying child went silent already.
(TN: child referring to the female soldier)

Although in reality she got silenced from the fear.

As I was spacing out in my thoughts, one of my men came up to me.
That hyaha expression from before is now tinged with a bit of fear as he faces me.

”Vice Captain! ! I have thrown the injured person on the bed! Please, you can be at ease now! ”

Hey hey, throwing an injured person on the bed is not good right.

Saying be at ease… the meaning is different when you say it.

At times like these, I have to properly scold them.

”Youuu, how many times do I have to tell you to carefully handle the patients!! And you too, both of you are useless! ”

” ”Sorry Vice Captain!! ” ” (TN: both subordinates say it in unison, one who was treating the patient in the beginning and another who ”kidnapped ” the female soldier)

Ah, I forgot to say it.
My name is Usato Ken, everyone calls me either Usato or Vice Captain.

As a bonus I am also a hero that was summoned from another world.

Right now I ’m the Vice Captain of a lifesaving group in an organization.
My specialty in magic is healing magic.

I am very glad to work in my post with constant smiles …..

”Haa… ”

The world I was from before, I was living a very ordinary high school life but why am I here at such a pleasant post…..
that was the start of my countless number of mistakes.

It was a harsh rainy day.
School was finished, I was in a carefree mood and was going to return home but the torrential rain obstructed me.
However, I forgot my umbrella at home and could only observe the other students with their umbrellas walking in the pouring rain.
Of course, there is no one who would conveniently have two umbrellas for their classmate.
That being said, I don ’t want to experience the unpleasant feeling of being soaked.

”It can ’t be helped.
I ’ll take shelter from the rain for a bit before leaving. ”

Yet it ’s not like I ’m in a hurry, but I don ’t mind hurrying and it ’s not like I hate the rain either.

However it ’s been 30 minutes since I ’ve been here and it doesn ’t look like the rain is going to stop at all.
From the school entrance gate where I ’m taking shelter, I unintentionally release a sigh.
Oi, I ’ll start to hate you at this rate, rain.

And so after another hour passed, the surrounding scenery shadows were starting to be visible due to the dimming rain clouds in the sky.

”Well, as you would expect it, it probably won ’t turn dark beyond this…hmm? ”

Coming towards the entrance here from the hallway was a boy and girl pair.

If I remember correctly those two were…….
people from the student council.

The boy is Ryuusen Ichiju.
Ichiju (一樹) is written and read as Kazuki (カズキ), he ’s a guy with a cool name.
Tall in height and a good-looking face or rather he has almost no faults at all like a protagonist from a galge, he ’s that kind of guy.
(TN: galge short for galgame, eroge, bishojou game, visual novel)

Furthermore he ’s the vice president and my classmate.
Everyone would see him as a perfect superhuman.

Compared to me, Usato Ken, where only my surname makes me stand out… the difference is like heaven and earth with each other.

”…Oh? ”

”What ’s the matter Inukami-senpai? ”

”That child is your classes ’s… ”

Inukami Suzune.
She is this school ’s student council president who ’s a third year senior student and who is also a dignified girl with black hair.
Intelligence is excellent, athletics are outstanding, and moreover she ’s a beautiful person.
With being gifted with intelligence and beauty, she is admired by all the boys in the school.
Also, she ’s popular with a portion of girls with special preferences.

According to the rumors, she ’s dating Ryuusen.

That kind of girl is making her way to my area and taking notice of me.

”You don ’t have an umbrella? ”

”Eh, well… yes ”

”I see, that ’s why you are here waiting for the rain to stop.
However, very soon the school is going to be closing for the day. ”

It ’s already become that late huh.

I opened my phone and checked the time while taking a gaze outside, the rain was still pouring.

It looks like it will still be a while before it ’s going to stop……

The thought of getting my parents to pick me up did cross my mind, but both of them are working so I can ’t rely on them.

Inukami-senpai put her arms together and looks troubled.

”Muu… the student council ’s dignity is going to be affected if I let you go home drenched just like this ”

”If that ’s the case senpai, how about I lend Usato-kun my umbrella? ”

”I have a folding umbrella already so ” saying that, Ryuusen handed over his umbrella in a friendly manner.

I see, this kind of personality would be popular with the girls at school.

He ’s in the same class as me and this is our first conversation, but how do I say it… it ’s somewhat refreshing.
Also, remembering my name made me a little moved.

”Thank you, Ryuusen-kun ”

”Oioi, attaching a ”kun ” makes me feel uneasy.
You can just be at ease and call me Kazuki.
And then I will…erm… ”

”Calling me Usato is good ”

There are plenty of people called Ken at school after all.

However, unexpectedly I became friends with the number one handsome guy at school and even calling him by his first name without honorifics… tomorrow his girl fans are going to be paying attention to me (blood thirst) and gather around.

”Well then can I also address you as Usato-kun? ”

”I don ’t mind you know? ”

Inside I was delighted; the school ’s number one beauty would call me by name, it ’s okay even if I die now.

Well, I thought today was an unlucky day, it ’s the opposite.
I became friends with the two most popular people in the school yeah.
This is something that rarely happens.

Rain, you ’re the best, pour even more if you want, it was due to the strong rain that we were able to meet.

Not sure if we were getting along well or Kazuki was trying to raise the tension but I got invited to go home together.

In just moments, this guy, he already grabbed a tight hold on the heart and emotions of an outsider like me, but for him, he ’s only thinking that he ’s glad to have another friend.
And here I doubted and directed my hate towards him; I apologized to him in my inner thoughts.

Inukami-senpai didn ’t object at the suggestion of going home together, I decided to accompany them.

”Have you decided what you ’ll be doing from now on till university? ”

”No, I am still only in second year ”

”Senpai, you also asked me this question right? ”

”Fufu, I don ’t have anything like that, that ’s why I am curious about other people ’s ”

The rain poured down incessantly on the road as we walked.

Possibly due to raining for a long time, but no cars were passing by us.
Well, today with this kind of rain you wouldn ’t want to go out for sure, I guess that ’s natural….

I was thinking that while listening to the resounding noise of the surrounding rain water.
Mysteriously, my heart became calm.
As a matter of fact, both of these two, are they perhaps releasing minus ions? (TN: I don ’t really get the joke here but the minus ions were written in katakana 不思議と心が穏やかになってくる。実はこの二人、マイナスイオンでも放出しているんじゃないのか?)

Having worried thoughts like that, I raised a question to Inukami-senpai about something I was curious about.

”Inukami-senpai, you still haven ’t decided on a university yet? Even though you ’re a third year? ”

”I haven ’t decided ”

”Isn ’t that fairly bad? ”

It ’s an impolite question but, I said my honest thoughts out.
Inukami-senpai is a third year in high school, if she doesn ’t choose a university soon she can ’t go anymore.

Hearing my reply, senpai gave an unpleasant smile.

Somehow it ’s not a smile that suits Inukami-senpai who is a dignified student president.

”That ’s right but you see, I can ’t find what I want to do… I am the one saying this but when I set an objective I almost immediately achieve it.
It ’s almost like, this is not the place for me.
Sometimes I think like that. ”

”Senpai is amazing, Usato ”

”Certainly ”

”Ah, just what I said now wasn ’t sarcasm okay……? ”

”I know ” I said while facing Kazuki and exchanged glances while laughing.

Inukami-senpai ’s cheeks got dyed scarlet and turned her head away as if she was angry.

”Oh yeah that reminds me, Kazuki are you and Inukami-senpai dating? ”

Suddenly I ask just like that to see their reactions.

After my question, the two of them looked blankly in puzzlement and showed no facial expression.

”Huh? That ’s incorrect ”

”That ’s right, it ’s a misunderstanding by the surroundings, we ’re both together a lot because there ’s a lot of student council work. ”

What a shocking truth, here I thought they were both really dating.

”It ’s a lie right? ”

”Hahaha, why would I lie about this ”

Kazuki was a more friendly person than I initially thought.

I thought he would think he ’s a little special and bitterly tell me ’I don ’t want to tell Usato ’ … he ’s incomprehensible.

Well, usually I only talk to my own friends and no one else.
Thinking of him like that can ’t be helped perhaps.

”….What? ”

”Hmm? ”

Except for me, the two others showed a puzzled expression and came to a halt.
When I looked behind me, strangely both of them had their hands on their ears so that they could listen.

Did they hear something? I didn ’t hear anything.

”What ’s wrong, the two of you? ”

”……Usato, just now did you hear something? Like a GON ”

”I didn ’t hear anything at all…… ”

”I heard it.
This is… the sound of a bell? ”

Except for me it seems, both of them heard it.

’Sound of a bell ’ was what Inukami-senpai said but there are no buildings nearby that would ring a bell.

Much less to say that there ’s the sound of pouring rain everywhere mixed in the surroundings; it would be difficult to hear the sound of a ringing bell.

However, both of them seemed to have heard the bell and it ’s unlikely they both misheard.

”Ar-are you alright? ”

In the instant I was getting closer to them, a strange pattern appeared on ground we were on.

When I saw the pattern, the thought that it would something from a game came across.

”Ma-magic circle? ”

A magic circle, but in a world that is dominated by science something like a magic circle is…

I fell into a panic quickly, but reversely my composure started getting to my head and I decided to confirm the present condition myself.
On the ground was a formation, it was shining and pulsating.

This is… isn ’t this the development where you go down the opening to another world path? In this kind of situation, I secretly held some anticipation.

”Kazuki, w,what do you think of another world!! ”

”Eh what are you suddenly saying Usato!? But anyways what is this! A filming!? ”

That ’s right!

At this time saying such incomprehensible things that ’s what you ’d normally reply with, sorry!

”Usato-kun, in another world do you think there will be things like magic, like monsters….
even heroes? ”

”I get the feeling I will be able to get along extremely well with Inukami-senpai ”

Inukami-senpai is a person from this side!

She ’s defintely a person who reads young-adult fiction stories on the net.

The magic circle on the ground shone a dark light from within; before I could even comprehend the situation, the dazzling light made me shut my eyes and I felt dizzy.
All of a sudden I received a feeling of being nauseous and felt a floating sensation along with me losing my consciousness.

While being confused on the inside, I felt the touch of the cold floor and slowly opened my eyes.

I raised my head up, using one side of my body to support myself up from the ground.
On the bottom was not the concrete road from before but a smooth lustre.

”…nnn…here is? ”

Looking at my surroundings, it ’s a gorgeous reception hall.

In front of me was a man sitting on a large chair.
In the nearby vicinity were several others, I could see some aged people standing by.

Getting up from lying down, I started to work my head to get my bearings on the current situation at hand.
Looking closely, in the middle was something like a throne that the man was sitting on.
The man appears to be wearing high-class Western clothing; furthermore on top of his head he was wearing a crown.

To add to that, the aged men in the back were wearing the kind of clothes you would see in an RPG.

From the aged men, I looked around from there and saw knight-like figures lined up horizontally with grey colored armor and swords with a Western appearance wrapped on their waists.

”Are you okay.
Usato ”

”Kazuki, where are we? ”

Next to me was Kazuki who seemed uneasy and called out to me.

I ’m glad, it looks like we weren ’t separated.
Since Kazuki is here, senpai is probably here too.

Looking towards Kazuki, next to him was Inukami-senpai who had already woken up and she came up to sit next to me.

”I don ’t know.
But there were already a lot of people with strange appearances when I woke up to my surroundings. ”

”I see.
Are you okay senpai? ”

”Aah, you don ’t need to be worried.
I ’m not hurt anywhere ”

Noticing that all of us had woken up, the haughty man with his crown that ’s sitting in front of us approached our position.

Rather than solemnity or insight, it was more like we felt like were being overpowered.

”It seems like all of you have woken up ”

This person looks exceedingly distinguished and important; I wonder what he could want from us.

As I was having my thoughts slowly wander around the environment to understand the current situation, Kazuki who was being vigilant, turned to face the man with the crown.

”You, who are you ”

”You bastard! How dare you disrespect Lloyd-sama ”

Next to the king-like character stood up a man who appears to be a retainer, it looks like he got angry and raised his voice from Kazuki ’s insolent manner of speaking.

Is this retainer-like person who handles and controls the king(?)

”It ’s fine.
Suddenly being called like this, naturally those kinds of words would come out.
You don ’t have to get angry over such a small thing, Gio.

”Ho-however… I understand ”

”Sorry.
My vassal ’s head is stiff in many ways ”

”Wa, yeah… ”

”My name is Lloyd Bluegust Lyngle.
I am the king of this Lyngle Kingdom. ”

Lyngle Kingdom.
A country I ’ve never heard of.

”It seems like you are perplexed.
I ’ll give a simple explanation.
You ’ve all been summoned to my Lyngle kingdom as heroes. ”

”As heroes you say? ”

Right now, I hear a small voice next to me saying ’It ’s here ’, but I am determined to believe that it ’s definitely not Inukami-senpai ’s voice.

Senpai, don ’t destroy your image as the cool beauty senpai anymore than this.
I really admired the noble image of you.

In addition, Kazuki is the serious type, please restrain yourself and don ’t act rashly.

”Yes, a hero.
Several years ago, the demon ’s king, the devil king was resurrected.
(TN: going to call the devil king ’Maou ’ from now on)

Sponsored Content

The resurrected Maou steadily spread his influence with his army.
Our Lyngle Kingdom desperately found the resolve to fight but even if we desire it, the Maou ’s army ’s strength could not be matched by us no matter what.
We were able to somehow successfully repel the previous attack against us but who knows what will happen next time.
…….And so we are using our last measure…… hero summoning.
We made the decision to perform this forbidden technique to call for help from another world.

Next to me, Inukami-senpai was unable to calm down and pitter-pattering about excitedly while stomping her own feet.
Senpai ’s image is starting to collapse.
No, it ’s already crumbled.
It ’s become rubble.

”What are the requirements to be summoned? ”

”It ’d be bad to accidentally call the wrong person to another world.
For that reason, the magic formation makes a selection.
When you were being summoned, you heard the sound of a bell right? ”

”……Uh yes there was a sound like that.
But if that ’s so, then Usato…… ”

Kazuki looks this way.
That look I believe he is giving me is probably an apology for loading me in.

The requirement was to hear the bell ’s ringing sound, in other words, since I didn ’t hear it I don ’t meet the requirement.

So, this means…..?

”I just got dragged along? ”

I can ’t think of anything but this.

……I don ’t mind it at all? Even without meeting the requirement I have still have my own worth.
I really hate to lose!!

The two of them looked at me while I was bewildered…… yes, yes, I ’m the one in the inappropriate place I understand.

It ’s the truth that I just got dragged along, conspicuously my own heart felt like there was a crack.
As I was holding down my suffering chest pain, I noticed Lloyd shut his serious eyes towards me.

This is bad, I ’ll be treated as useless and be thrown out…..

”So you got dragged along huh… there is a way to send you back but, the another world summoning was only a one-way passage with the present conditions.
It ’s possible to take someone but sending them back can ’t be done.
It ’s the same with the two others beside you… I truly am sorry… I don ’t mind if you shout curses or abuses at me. ”

……This king is perhaps a really good person?

No……doing a hero summoning that takes unrelated human beings with no way back isn ’t something a good person would do though.

”Noo—- ”

”Don ’t screw around with me!! ”

Noo, before I could finish Kazuki who was next to me raised a voice of fury.

On both sides of the king, the standing soldiers drew their swords from their waists.

He-hey, I ’m happy you ’re getting mad for my sake but calm down a bit!?

”So what ’s going to happen to us! Our parents are in our former world! Senpai ’s too, Usato ’s too…… ”

”I am very sorry…..but, we are desperate too ”

Forming a fist with his hand, Kazuki takes a step forward.

I ’ve only become friends with him for several hours but what a great guy.
Even though I find it hard to take this seriously because it all seems so crazy…..

”Calm down, Kazuki.
I ’m happy you ’re getting mad for my sake but, there ’s no point in acting violently here right? ”

”Kuh……… If Usato says it like that then ”

Inside of Kazuki, how much power do my statements actually hold.

”I know we ’re doing things for our own convenience.
Being forcibly taken into this world, we don ’t know if we can give you the appropriate compensation.
But, we will find the magic to send you all magic without fail.
Until then, lend your powers to us… Please ”

” ”Lloyd-sama!? ” ”

O—-i… in front of Kazuki he ’s prostrating himself, isn ’t the conversation progressing too fast!?

It ’s already something definite, this person is an extremely good king! The novels I read had completely different kings!

”I am a king of this country! I have a duty to protect the citizens!! For that sake, I will bow my head as many times I need to! ”

Standing up from there, Lloyd made his way to me and silently bowed his head.
The king of a country is bowing his head to a mere student.

Inside that strange scene, Kazuki who had calmed down dropped his shoulders as if he was giving up.

”…….Just before I was impolite, I am very sorry.
Please raise your head king-sama.
I was put in disorder…… Let ’s talk, we will hear you out.
Let ’s start with that first. ”

”Thank you for your kindliness ”

King Lloyld who bowed his head to Kazuki turned to nod his head in assent to Inukami-senpai and I.

Inukami-senpai showed a refreshing smile and a thumbs up, something never seen before from her at school.

I think these guys are the ones unexpectedly enjoying the most out of this.
