Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

Today is the Day. I packed up my gear and said goodbye to everyone that has helped me thus far. Apparently I am one of the only heroes left. The vertically challenged guy apparently died on their first mission from getting impaled by a wild boar. The average guy sadly died on their first mission with the rest of my party. The other heroes though are apparently doing as good as I am. As I approached I saw the pale girl and the tall guy. I learned the tall kid was named Kai and the pale girl was named Felicity. She seemed to be shy. As the three of us approached the castle the mana in the air grew thick. When we reached the door to the castle we were greeted by three royal guards and a noblemen they lead us to the king in the throne room and the ambassador from Ascendria. I bowed when I reached the room "my liege." Although it was corny it will have to do. this man could end my life in a second. Then he exclaimed "There is no reason to be so formal!" He exclaimed happily, "I may be the king but you are the heroes of the realm one's with powers beyond ours! How could I except you to bow before me!" Although he was the king he seemed extremely laid back and kind. Then the festivities started all of the nobles were invited and even some commoners although in the city they were also having a giant festival for the commoners. Then when all of the commotion was at its climax the ambassador, me, the other heroes, and the king slipped away to an office. We then got on to the topic of the other heroes and how they met their demise. After I finished explaining he said "well that is greatly unfortunate we can only summon you guys twice every four thousand years. But you know that you can't die from old age once you travel here." I didn't know about this which isn't surprising because it's probably redacted information. He then also said "well I'm guessing no one has told you why you were summoned here. Well you have been summoned to defeat the Demon lord Fergum. If you can defeat him you can use the infernal blood to go back to your world if you wish. But the problem is Fergum seems to have forces somewhere in Ascendria which are affecting the both Ascendria and Us. And well don't say anything to anyone but we think that it is somewhere near the tree of life or mount Telebeth. But luckily for you guys we already have a party investigating so don't worry about it." As he finishes I ask if I can stay here and he answers "of course you'll be allowed to stay here! You'll be the one of the heroes afterall." He then says "with all of this being said I would like for the three of you to create a party together and invite some others on your adventures. As you all acquire more skills and reach Godly tier adventurers you then would be ready to face the demon king. He will make his great attack a predicted two and a half years from now so be prepared. With this being said I would like to supply all of you with a royal relic of your choosing for the each of you." We were given the choices of:

The Holy Sword Excalibur (King Arthur's sword)

The Great Magnus' Wand (Great Magnus seems to be Merlin)

The Eye and hand of a evil lich (seems to be cursed)

The Master Bolt (Zeus' weapon)

The Trident of the Sea

The cloak of invisibility
