Chapter 1:  To Be Useless

A few minutes after being summoned, all of us lined up before the King of the Human country.

While the king rubs his excellent beard, he evaluated us.

"Fumu…the heroes from the different world have come. I am the center of the of the human being, the person unifying Destinea Kingdom, King Destinea. I welcome all of you." (King)
[T.N: Not sure if his name is Destinea or every king use that name once they become king. I’ll just use king]

The minister and knights around the king bow to us when he said that.

… Somehow King Destinea aged a bit, his wrinkles increased, looking like a respectable middle-aged person. Judging from his appearance, around 5 years had pa.s.sed?

"Thank you King Destinea. We will serve you, as I have come here to fulfill the mission given.” (Kouma)

It"s Kouma, the hero of our cla.s.s is the one that answered the king…what an idiot.

The reason we got summon was told by the princess a few minutes ago, and my cla.s.smate the part time female teacher who heard the reason accept it with a touched feeling.

As the princess said――――――this country, and continent are being attacked by the Beastman and Demon race.

The cause in unclear. The war that should have ended suddenly starts again, as they got attacked.

Besides, the Beastman and the Demon race seems to have made an alliance, pushing the human country to a hard fight.

To regain peace again in this country, I want to leave the role of ending the war to the Heroes…..it feels like that kind of story.

Frankly speaking, I can’t stand hearing that wish.

Just because a totally irrelevant country is in a pinch, only a fool would decide to stake his life for it.

I also turn them down at first.

――――――However, right now the group is different.

"Yes! If you"re fine with us!" (Kouma)

The hero of our cla.s.s, Kouma gives a good reply.

Other people also nods with serious face too.

At least think about it a little….……when I tried to b.u.t.t in, I noticed magical power dwelling in the princess"s eyes.

(――――――is that Charm Eye?)
[T.N: Direct translation is something like Eye of Enchantment, but the given Katakana said Charm Eye, so I"m using that]

Charm Eye, it"s a bad magic that makes the opponent listen to your wish…the important thing is that all of them had been charmed by these eyes. By the way, it can"t be used to make someone fall in love with you, it could only be used to make whatever you said be easier to accept.

However………it needs considerable power to charm the people of the same gender as you. It seems that the princess had grown up in these 5 years too.

――――――At first even beginner"s cla.s.s magic is dangerous for her.

Well, Charm Eye of this level won’t have any effect on me. Even Medusa"s Petrification Eye won’t work on me.

As for other people than me who"s such a charm doesn’t work on them is…..

"Why are you all so eager!?" Yuuhi seems to be showing that kind of panicked feeling. It seems Charm Eye doesn’t work on her either.

I keep giving her my divine protection since we were small, so needless to say mental interference magic won’t bear any result to her.

…Yuuhi is the only human that I value almost as much as my parents in this second life. I had been helped by that brightness. Therefore, I promised on this life that I will protect her.

…Even if we"re not affected by the charm, just both Yuuhi and me won’t be able to change the result of the majority.

And with that, we"re made to receive something like a magic apt.i.tude test because of Kouma(Idiot). The test is easy as you just need to touch a crystal ball the size of a soccer ball. There you can check the quant.i.ty of each person"s magic power as well as suitable attribute.
[T.N: Author just put Idiot on top of his name. Basically, written as Kouma, read as Idiot.]

Nothing will happen to the crystal if there"s no magic at all. If there’s magic, and its Green, from there Yellow, Orange, Red, Blue, Purple, Black, all the way to White, the color will come out according to the quant.i.ty of magical power. Green is the lowest, White is the highest. The average of the people in this world is Orange. If talented Blue or Purple. Black is on a monster level…something like that?

"Amazing!! Kouma-sama"s magical power is white!! The suitable attribute is the 5 basic attribute including light!!" (Princess)

The princess was jumping with so much joy towards the result of Kouma"s test.

He seems to have quite the talent after all. Although the magical power of the human in modern time could be quite a lot, White is really on a monster level. He would be a considerably influential person if he trains properly.

To say about the suitable attribute so that you can understand, it’s possible to check that using the crystal gem if you have some knowledge about magic. The magician of the castle, as well as the princess and me knew this.

By the way, the basic attribute is Fire, Water, Lightning and Earth, these 4 types. The hero that is receiving the greatest admiration also has an apt.i.tude for light magic as an addition.

Light attribute is particularly precious in this world. They"re really going to overwork you hard later, you"re out of luck.

Although Kouma is great, the other people are also generally overflowing with talent too.

Any group had Purple as the lowest…am I crazy in the head?

Kouma"s gang members are all Black with a little white mixed in, all of them are above Black? Yuuhi is Gray. You can see that it is almost White.

There are a lot of members with high amount of magical power as well as a lot of suitable attributes. The normal of this world is roughly just 1 or 2, these guys had at least 3 or more. Yuuhi especially had the most proper attribute. She had 7 attributes, a monster level.

"Next one please!" (Princess)

The princess"s voice directed at me. I noticed that I"m the only one that had not finished the test.

Uwaa…all eyes are staring…

“Put your hand on the crystal.” (Princess)

I put my hand on the crystal.

Although the princess is looking with eyes full of expectation――――――the crystal had no color.

"Eh…? What is the meaning of this?" (Princess)

The princess is showing a perplexed expression.

The princess put her hand as a trial, the color changed normally. Purple huh? She then raised her arm.

I understood it immediately, the eyes of the princess turn into the eyes seeing garbage.

She"s a fierce woman that could change her eyes. I could still see the strong image of mischievous kid in those days.
[T.N: Can"t really make out the 2nd line, Raw:目の変化が激しい女だ]

"Is your magical power 0…..well, such a person will probably come too. Then let’s dismiss for today! Since each of you will be provided a room, please use it freely!!" (Princess)

Kuhaha!  Openly changing her att.i.tude!

She didn"t even give me a glance either, as she goes somewhere. If I look towards my back I would see the gaze of my cla.s.smates ridiculing me. Especially the Endo gang who"s smiling together.

Even the magician hired by the castle, 「Despite being a Hero」 could be heard to have been said.

…. What a pity, there doesn’t seem to be any good magician in this castle.

The reason why the crystal does not change color when I touch it, is not because there"s no magic power.

――――――The crystal ball of that level just can’t measure it.

That crystal doesn’t have the capacity to measure the amount of magic power higher than White. Therefore the color can’t change without being able to finish measuring it….. By the way, my suitable attribute is almost all. I could handle all the attribute a human can use without limit. All of them|It"s what I obtained while I"m fighting.
[T.N: Not sure about last line. Raw: それも全部あいつらと|戦ってる内に掴み取ったものだがな]

That"s how it is. Although I felt bad for the guys in the castle, allow me to use this idea.

I want to get out of the castle as soon as possible, so I will use the knowledge obtained from the summoned to another world"s novel

"――――――I"ll have them label me as useless." (Setsu)

I mutters that in a whisper.

I"ll push the useless label, until I"m kicked out of the castle.

Then my free life in a different world will begin!! Since I only fight during the first one, so allow me to play a lot during this second times!

Thus, my plan of having me kicked out went underway.
