“so, kuromaru ryuuji will you help us?”

“no”

“yes, I know you must feel honored to work for me. Ehh, what did you say?”

“I’m sorry but I have to decline your offer. More importantly, can you send me back to my world?”

Rather than working for the demon king, I choose to return back to earth. Where I can recharge my daily nutrients from light novels in the bookstore. Coming to a world like this which really fall back in civilization, my heavenly world of moe-moe can’t be completed.

After hearing my answer the demon king frowned.

“This is not good. Should we kill him my lord? We can not send him back after all of this. The amount of spiritual power needed is so large and considering the possibility of him turning his sword against us, let’s just kill him.” vahjra is the one who gives this suggestion.

Urm.. This isn’t the answer that I want to hear. Seems like I’ll get tangled up in this mess.

“kuromaru ryuuji, say. What’s the reason for you to turn down my offer?”

The demon king surprisingly wise. He wants to hear my reason first.

“Demon king, I’m just an ordinary person in my world I can even be considered weak. How can I help you in a fight? Moreover I just arrived in this world and know nothing of it. Rather than wasting your time trains me or teach me about this world, why don’t you just send me back and summon another person?”

“the problem is, to summon a hero we need large amounts of spiritual power. Moreover I don’t know how to send you back.” vahjra again gives his answer.

What? They summon me without knowing how to send me back? If the one who get summoned retaliate and kill the demon king, what will they do? Such a foolish act. Are they that desperate in their battle against the human?

This time, the demon king give his answer to me.

“I’m sorry about that Kuromaru ryuuji. As you heard just now, we can’t send you back to your world. And i think you underestimate your power. Anyone that is summoned from another world should have amazing power.”

Ugh.. It’s so hard to debate with the demon king. Even his conversation skill is flawless. But I can’t give in now. Imagining me battling in the front lines with the demon against the human is not something I want to do.

“Demon king, I don’t even know what power I have or how to fight. How is it possible for you to waste your time on me?”

Yes, answer with humble heart and smile. He will let me go if this continues I think.

“Father… I don’t think we can leave our problem to him?”

“Rosalie, why did you think so?”

“You know father, I can’t feel any magic power coming from him.”

Eh? Magic power? As expected, magic is always tickling my adventurous sense. But she said I got no magic power?

“Father, why don’t we let Vahjra to test him out?”

The demon king then nodded while waved his hand to the man called Vahjra.

The man in robe then started to chant a spell.

“Eiz wef drof gad soz fum…”

Instantly from his hand a ball of fire flying towards me. Eh, I will clearly die if that hit me.

I didn’t feel any physical changes to my weak body. The girl also said I didn’t have any magic power inside my body. Is this my end?

As I lost in thoughts, the scorching ball of fire is now in front of me. I can only move my hand to shield my body and screamed.

“Nooo! Stooop!”

——

I close my eyes and prepared for the impact.

1 second…

2…

5…

10…

It never comes.

I slowly opened my eyes and clearly the ball of fire is still floating in front of me. Why did it stop?

As I look to my surrounding, it was as if time has been stopped in place.

Is this my power?
