Chapter 14
However, he never really showed signs of getting mad, ever! So, this didn't make sense at all, I just left it at that and came back the next day, but still, no answer. I asked the old man at the front desk, but he said he hadn't seen him at all.
I called his parent but they said they hadn't heard from him. John's parents had been calling him to, but they never received an answer. The police got involved soon after to report a missing person and questioned me and the old man at the front desk.
I told them I only saw him $(% days ago, and that we had a little argument. It about him not starting school right away and playing games all day. The police became somewhat suspicious and started to question me more, I only gave the same answer but they kept looking at me like I was guilty of something.
I unlock the door to my house, well, I live with my parents as of now. I ask my mom and dad if the police found out anything, but she silently shook her head helplessly. Even though I felt he was lazy sometimes, he was still my closest friend.
If I could be with him, things would be so much better but he isn't around anymore. I head to my room upstairs to relax my nerves. I still have many photos of us when we were 4, oh, those good days!
Some evil sc.u.m bag must have kidnapped him, he was quite the trash-talker in video games. Maybe someone found out where he lived and kidnapped him in anger, he might be getting tortured as I speak. d.a.m.nit, this is making me mad just thinking about it!
If I had the power to destroy evil, I would surely go with it! If I could find my childhood friend, then it all wouldn't matter, I'd just go with him! d.a.m.n! I slammed my fist on the nearby desk in anger, but this isn't affecting anyone but me and my desk I paid for!
All I can do is finish the essay that was a.s.signed to me and that is it. I can't do anything more, but suddenly, my room starts to glow in a rainbow light until it was fully engulfed in it! I'm currently shocked and I yelled out for help, but no one responded, this is so weird, what is going on?
I looked into the distance and could see nine other silhouettes, I call out to them but they don't respond! Suddenly, the light got brighter then it died down in an instant. I'm currently standing, but I'm next to nine other people.
I looked around and could see people dressed in strange clothes that are all white. Some even had nice armor on, are they cosplaying or something? Everyone who was standing on the same platform as me looked around in confusion.
Some of them were dressed in strange clothes as well. From primitive clothes to high tech clothes you'd see in the movies.
...
Altar Room.
With the appearance of the heroes, the room grew quiet. Most of the factions that had the right to pick a hero was a.n.a.lyzing them. There were five females and five males heroes summoned each, with the grand total of 10.
"h.e.l.lo! I welcome you guys from different worlds! My name Neo and you've been summoned by us to save the world. I know this is a lot to take in, but you guys are quite special, we've summoned you guys here to aid us against the Demon Kings that are on the rise!" Neo was finally done with his speech.
All the summoned heroes were dumbfounded, say what now!? They were summoned to a different world? "Wait, wait, are you saying my bedroom glowing up in strange light was because I was being summoned to a different world?" A teenager around the age of 16 to 17 with blonde hair and blue eyes asked.
"This is most likely the case, we've summoned you for this reason. Once the Demon Kings and the Devil Race have
"No way! Fantaisies like this actually exist? Say, do elves or Demi-humans exist in this world?" Some nerdy gla.s.ses man suddenly spoke up, his face looked quite perverted.
Neo eyebrows twitched and nodded.
"Oh, my G.o.d!!!" The nerdy man had tears coming out of his eyes, he wanted the dream harem of elves and demi-humans!
All of the hero women looked at him in disgust, they knew what he was imagining. The man didn't seem to care, he just wanted his elf and demi-human fantasy to come forth.
"Is there any proof of this? Can you show us something that can convince us?" Suddenly, a black man walked forward and questioned.
"Yes, we can show you guys, come over here and touch this...o...b..and it'll awaken your powers." Neo wasn't worried about them, the heroes still needed to be trained and weren't that strong yet despite their coming awakening.
Just when the black guy was about to walk forward, the Blonde man who appeared to be European, insisted on going first. He didn't seem to mind and let the guy go ahead of him. The man nodded with thanks and touched the orb.
Suddenly, the orb flashed with several different colors, this indicated the elements they were learning and the awakening of their power. The blonde man suddenly felt stronger, he could feel it right away, he was shocked!
"Hehe, you feel it, huh? You should be able to view your status by saying status." Neo smiled and said.
The summoned heroes were surprised now, a status, it was like a real fantasy! This made the nerd man so happy, that he was on the verge of fainting from joy. He was an absolute fan of fantasies like these.
The Blonde said status lightly and his status was revealed to him.

"Holy fu..." Jack stopped himself from cursing, he was a n.o.bleman in his world and had to act modestly. But he was amazed looking at his stats, he fenced a lot back at home and found it to be Level four, was this high?
Jack walked back, he was still in deep thought about his status. Jack did look at the black man and nodded for him to go forth. The Black man shrugged and went up to do the same thing as Jack.
He also felt a great change in his strength, his power was also awakened!
"Status!" He said bluntly

"Hmm, not bad, I guess!" Bryce wasn't sure if this was good or not, but he went with it. The rest of the heroes all took their turns. Everyone in the stance watched closely, but some had already made a decision on who they wanted to pick.
The Orb also represented what element that they had awakened, so this is what they were paying attention to the most. There were now two more heroes left to try, it was the nerd man and Aria who was just silently watching.
"Hehe, since you aren't going, then I'll head up first!" The nerdy man was about 20 years of age. The orb glowed up with 4 different colors. They always awakened 4 elements from the start and had to be taught the others.
Some elements couldn't be taught, some people couldn't learn certain elements. Certain elements couldn't be taught, for example, Ultimate Elements! The Nerdy man's name was Jason Mccoy, he walked back to the platform with a wide smile on his face.
"And last but certainly not least, you young lady." Neo looked toward Aria, who was the last Hero.
Aria nodded and walked over to the Orb and slowly touched it. The Orb flashed with 5 brilliant colors, which shocked everyone, it was 5 Elements! But there was also something else that shocked everyone. Two rare colors had made an appearance, it was extremely hard to learn these elements or to be taught them!
Neo himself was visibly shocked, what kind of hero was she? Aria didn't notice anything because her head was turned towards the orb, but she felt the power running through her body. After the Orb stopped flas.h.i.+ng, she whispered the word status.

"Hmm, is this good?" Aria touched her chin, she had picked up this habit after seeing John do it so much. Aria turned around and looked toward everyone, however, their faces looked strange. Some were shocked, some were happy, while some had the look of greed in their eyes!
Aria put her head down and looked away, those stares were just too weird!
Neo was silent, he was still a bit stunned, he looked at the crowd and raised his hand. "The ceremony is now over, you young heroes will be send off to other places to train. These people here will choose one amongst you to join them!" Neo paused and looked at the heroes and continued.
"Don't worry, you'll get the full support of each faction or nation you're sent to no matter what!" Neo a.s.sured that they'll be supported with every action they took or anything they needed.
The Heroes looked reluctant at first but nodded soon after. They just wanted this over with, so they could return home. This wasn't the same for Jason, he wanted to stay here and never leave!
"Good, it's nice to have you guys on board!" Neo nodded and smiled towards the heroes and looked towards the spectators.
"The first pick this time around will the Palace of Light for their high Merit!" As soon as Neo said that, everyone in the room frowned deeply. Melanie stood up quickly and smiled, she didn't need to think about it and pointed straight to Aria.
"You, you will be learning from the Palace Of Light from now on!" Aria looked behind her and pointed to herself and said 'me.'
"Yep! You!" Melaine quickly appeared next to Aria and grabbed her shoulder, this move easily started Aria.
"Hey, hey, hold it right there, just one minute!" An angry voice came from the spectator's seating area, it was clearly a dissatisfied one at that!
