Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: Hero's Banish

I will make this chapter longer than the first one and it will contain more information about this new world, some level assessment and even the banishing. Well let's get to it. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

'Nytheria? I where is that?' I thought. "Where am I?" I asked. "I already told you, you are in Nytheria, Frostmourne to be specific." he said. "And where is that?" I asked still suspicious. He looked at me for a moment as if scanning me and then sighed. "What's your name?" he asked. "Huh.. answer me first." I said refusing to give them any detail about myself. "You are in a world called Eryndor." he said while still scanning me with his eyes. 'I am in a whole other world. That explains why I can't talk to Dayne. But why do I feel like this won't end well.' my thoughts ended as I heard Beltai talking. "...so we decided to summon a hero and that's how you ended up here." Beltai said. "Huh... could you repeat that don't think I was listening." I said bluntly. "Sir hero come with me." Beltai said. "Name's Dan." I said as I decided to trust them for now. "Sir Dan." Beltai said and the turned and descended the stairs, the people who were with Beltai were still standing there just staring at us. "Take a break and replenish your mana, I'll report this to his majesty" Beltai said. 'Mana huh I must be in a magical world then.' I thought.

"Hey Beltai what's your status here?" I asked hoping to atleast understand who I am talking to. "I am head of the royal wizards. You know if I report this you are going to have a meeting with the king." Beltai said. "I figured as much" I answered. As we were walking I had noticed that we were in a castle. "So when do I meet your king?" I asked hoping to know the time I had left. "Now." Beltai said as we reached a door. "Huh... now? isn't that to fast? I don't know anything when it comes to royal Demeanor." I said not even trying to hide my nervousness. "The king ordered that the hero must be taken to him the moment he/she is summoned. And besides we are already there." He said as a guard who was standing in front of a huge door pushed it open to reveal a huge room in which there was a throne in the middle where a middle aged blonde man was sitting. 'Well can't turn back now.' I thought and walked in after Beltai. As we reached in front of the stairs leading up to his throne, Beltai stopped and went down on one knee. I immediately copied the gesture and also went down on one knee. "Your highness I have brought the hero we have summoned par your request." Beltai said. "Very good Beltai, I will see to it that you are paid handsomely for your hard work and all your court mages." the King said before turning to me. "So you are the new hero?" he asked his voice carrying authority. "Yes." I answered. "I am sure Beltai explained to you our history on your way here so I don't think I need to go in details." he said. "Actually I wasn't listening when he explained." I said bluntly with a nervous smile. The king looked at Beltai and then sighed and then muttered some words I couldn't hear which I expect were curses and the leaned back in his throne as he started to explain. "500 years ago the demon race attacked our race causing death and destruction where ever the went, the heavens granted us a type of magic to summon heroes from another world who is granted immense power the moment the appear. 500 years ago a hero was summoned and he defeated the demon king and we lived in a peaceful era, but now the demons have restarted the war." the king got up from the throne and descended the stairs and stopped in front of me and the... bowed down to me "Please sir hero save our world from this impending threat." the king said. "Please get up your majesty don't bow to me and besides don't even know my current strength." I said. "Good point, Beltai go assess his status." the king said as he got up and went back to his throne. "As you wish your majesty." Beltai said and then turned and left.

I followed him closely as he lead me into a room smaller than any others I have seen. It was filled with books and a small table with a crystal in the middle of the table. 'definitely not ominous' I thought sarcastically. "All you have to do is place your hand on the crystal and the rest will just happen automatically." Beltai instructed. "Okay." I said and then put my hand on the crystal as Beltai told me, it glowed a jade green and then displayed some kind of window.

[Danny Rones! title: Hero! rank: Platinum!]

I looked at Beltai to gauge his reaction to tell what that meant but his face was showing pure.... shock. "so...?" I asked trying to know what that meant. "impossible" he muttered and the summoned a paper and ink pen the wrote some things down and the paper vanished. "So is platinum good?" I asked him. "It's the exact opposi-" Beltai was cut off as the door to the room burst open. "WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?!" the king asked as the walked in. "HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE? YOUR SUPPOSED TO BE THE HERO!" He was now shouting at me. "You know I still don't understand what is going on." I said looking at both of them waiting for an explanation. "The thing is your a hero and your supposed to be the strongest human alive." Beltai started explaining. "BUT INSTEAD YOU ARE A DISSAPOINTMENT." said the king still angry. I was starting to hate the guy. "Guards throw this piece of trash out." the king said to guard standing outside. "But sire even though he is a platinum rank, he is still a hero which means he still has more potential to grow faster than normal people." Beltai said trying to defend me. "I don't care about his development potential." the king said still angry but no longer shouting. "The war is getting closer, we have no time to babysit." the king said and turned to leave. "Hey" I said in a low but angry voice "You summoned me here in another world may I remind you to fight a war for you and potentially die, but the second you find out am weak you kick me out." I said in anger. "Why shouldn't we? You are just a worthless hero." the king said. "Just a worthless hero." I repeated his words. "I had a home on earth, a family to welcome me home every night you can't just summon me here and then discard me." I said still angry. "Actually we can." the king said. "Send me back." I said

"Huh"

"I said send me back to earth. I couldn't care less about your stupid war." I said. "Umm.. that's not how summoning magic works." Beltai said. "It's a one-way magic . We can't send you back" I took a second to process what he just said and then turned around and walked out the door but before I disappeared, I turned around and made an oath. "I swear that I will come back and get my revenge and reed this world of you." I declared and then left. As I left the castle, Beltai appeared in front of me. "What do you want? Here to arrest for my declaration?" I asked. "Why would I?" He said as he walked closer. "Then what do you want from me?" I asked him but he just used some kind of pocket dimension and pulled out a small pouch and gave it to me. I looked at him then opened the pouch to find it filled with gold coins. "You are from earth right? Apparently the previous hero was also from earth and the elders said that he had some strange currency. So here is some money as I dought you have it." Beltai said with a genuine smile. "Why?" I asked confused. "Why, cause you need it." Beltai said. "No why help me, you don't even know me." I said. He just smiled and looked up. "I have three daughters, the youngest is your age, I guess seeing a helpless teen kind of made me think 'what if it was her?' so I decided to help you." Beltai said. "Thanks." I said as I put the pouch in the jumper I was wearing. "Stay safe kid." He said. "Call me Dan." I said. "Piece of advice though, avoid the forests." He said. "I'll try." I said as I walked passed him. As I exited the kingdom gates, something... weird happened.

{Hidden quest completed: Survive the hero's fate! Reward: receive all former hero's abilities, memories and level!}

{Hidden quest complete: Achieve all the hero's abilities, memories and levels! Reward: Unique skills: Wings of Heimdall, Breath of Heimdall}

Just then a massive headache hit me which caused me to stumble a bit as all the knowledge of the previous hero entered me. The information was.... alot. 'wow' was all I could think of. Turns out the hero is also blessed with a long lifespan and was alive for a whole 500 years and just died recently. 'I just received 500 years of knowledge. wait does that make me 500years old now?'

{Technically it does}

A voice spoke in my head. 'Who are you?' I asked. 

{I am not a who I am the system of the gamer: Danny Rones}

'What do you mean gamer? Is this like a game?' I asked

{No, it's is real but you are a special gamer where the world literary evolves around you.}

'What's my current status?'

'Hey system can I return back to my world' I asked

[You can travel through multiverses but to return to your original world you are required 300billion MP]

'Well that's off the list for now. Is there an alt-' I was asking before I got cut off by a scream from the forest nearby, I ran towards the scream. 'Why am I so agile? Is this because of the gamer's body?' I asked. 

{It is because of both the gamer's and hero's body}

I reached an area in the forest where there was a girl around my age and six goblins around her. She was wearing a dress and some elegant shoes so I assumed she was someone so important. I used "observe"

[Candy von Dianos! 3rd daughter of the house of Dianos! lvl: 9]

[Nameless goblins! lvl: 15]

{Quest initiated: Eliminate the goblins and save candy!! Reward: level up x2! Access to healing magic}

'Neat'

I jumped in between her and the goblins and used a basic wind spell "wind blade" to kill the first two. "Grrrraaaaagh" one of them yelled out. 

[It is trying to summon more goblins]

I put my hand forward and pointed in their center "cyclone" I called out and then an invisible force sucked them in and crushed them
