Within the planet of Arisha. Worshipers of the God of Water gather and prepare to summon the new batch of heroes sent into their world.
"Alright, everyone, get ready! We are now summoning the next Heroes from the Goddess of Tornado! Make sure your mana is enough."
Everyone begun to drinks their mana potions to the last drop, to increase the total amount of their mana.
Anxious, scared, excited, this was the emotion they had right now; summoning heroes was not rare or lethal at all.
But summoning bad heroes from another world is. There have said countries have been destroyed by their own summon Heroes due to their latent potential that knows no limit.
Having the title [ Otherworlder ] allows them to level up much faster than anyone else. Along with the title [ Hero ] that reduced the total amount of exp they need to level up.
In this very moment, each and every single person within the temple prays for good-natured heroes who know how to [ listen ] and, most of all, [ understand ] the situation they are in.
With all of this, they began the summoning. Within the magic circle formation drawn in the ground, each one stands beneath the circles of it.
Channeling their mana, covering the entire formation with magical essence, then started to chant.
The room trembles to the amount of mana in the air, ripples in the ground appear, and mana changes from its liquid-like form to a slime-like look from its foot. As each of the mana slime wrapped into each other, they circled around the formation.
A crack inside the circle appeared, showing the summoning going well, "Keep going!" One of the mages yelled.
Looking at the cracks within the formation, the summoners strengthen their power to their best. As smoke appeared within the room, they knew they were about to do it; with a final push of their power, they did it.
They have summoned Seven new Heroes of today. As the smoke cleared out, they saw the image of the heroes. There, they stand next to each other, with confused and complicated looks on their faces.
"Welcome! Heroes to the planet Arisha! Heroes of the Goddess of Tornado!" They said with smiles on their faces. Nagi cleared his throat and mustered up the courage to say something; as the smoke fled below the knees of the heroes, another person was lying down beneath them.
Unlike the other heroes who are confused, he had fear in his face, trembling nonstop and his eyes with no sign of hope as if he had accepted death already.
Everyone in the room stayed quiet, trying to understand who might this man be. One of the mages tried to help the man to stand up.
As the hand of his got near the man, the man suddenly passed out. There, the seven summon heroes, along with a man with no known origin, were summoned.
•••••
After sending the seven to their rooms, they are given time to adjust to their own. Given along with books and food for the night.
At the same time, one of the temple priestess paid the mages that was part of the summoning, as they prepared to go back to their home.
One of the mages paused for a moment before saying something to the priestess, "Be careful around that man," he said waving his hand as he walked away.
At that very moment, One of the priestesses looked at the sleeping man, his eyes filled with dark circles showing signs he had not slept in a long time, his lips drier than the ground of the summer heat.
Although he was fairly fat, his body showed he had not eaten anything for more than a week. From the waist below, his body was weak... so weak, like he had completely lost control of it some time already.
"What happens to him?" She asked, carefully giving the man water to quench his thirst.
"Any news?" One of their older sisters asked through the door.
"None" she answered back.
Hearing the word of her, she told her to go back to her room and she will take care of the man. As the young woman left the room, she took the man's arm and placed a stone with a mark on it.
"Status blessing," she said quietly. A second later, a small board shows up in his palm. Looking at the board, she saw only a few information, levels, skills, attributes, and titles were shown only in it.
"Level 1, no skills, nor attributes too..., and most of all no title?" She thought then continued. "Not a single title? Not even a [ Summon one ] title. Then he's not a hero or a Otherworlder?"
"No.., that's ridiculous; he was definitely summoned along with the heroes." With no answer to her questions, she fixed his blanket and tucked him carefully, then left the room quietly.
•••••
The very next morning, the seven left their room, had their breakfast, and went into the temple training area.
The training area is in the back of the temple, which is surrounded by a forest that surrounds the entire village they are in.
"Alright, heroes! From here on out, the temple of water will train and help each and every single one of you to know what your potential is." Summoning a blade from the ground, he pointed at them.
"By the end of the year, all of you should be able to do this as if you're breathing." He paused and took breath in, "Not just a singular blade but more than ten of them!" He screamed out.
All the heroes doubt that they can do something like that, they were merely a highschool students, who never been to a fight before. Looking at their faces the instructor continued on.
"Don't worry..., this is nothing but the weakest abilities that you 'Heroes' can do. All the summon people can do this, you know!" Summoning more blades on the ground. "This is my limit, at best I can only summon nine blades in total. But each and every single one of you can surpass this limit of mine, in half a year if you work hard." Hearing this all of them lighten up their mood and gain confidence to work hard.
"Alright then! Since all of you seems okay now, RUN!"
"How long should we run?" Nagi asked for the team.
"RUN!" He said without a changed to his face. "Run until, you guys reach level 3" still keeping his stagnant looked. "Ooh! Every additional points, you guys use, I will add another hour into your training. Now with all of this...," Breath in "Start running!!!!"
