The day went flying. I passed out on my bed without even eating dinner.

I woke up the next day, a little early. Little too early.
[ 04 : 27 ]

I got my clothes on and went outside. It was pretty chill temperature-wise and atmospheric wise. I took a chilly walk along the paths.

Man, this feels refreshing, damn.

The moonlight lit up the street, casting shadows around corners. It still felt weird for me to walk around such unfamiliar structures. The styles all looked like medieval Europe style I saw on history books and of course, Mangas.

There were a few people working around this hour.

If I was a manga protagonist, I'd be running around on the roofs, doing naruto run. Right now, lol.

I started heading back after I felt a bit too cold, but actually, I went into back alleys and begin my adventure there.

Unfortunately, typical bad dude #1 and bad dude #2 never showed up. I went home in shivering disappointment.

I opened the front gate of the mansion. I slowly open the front door and found William standing around.

"Oh, you're awake William."

"Welcome back sir. Where have you been?"

"Just taking a stroll down the street. I couldn't go back to sleep, so I thought I may as well."

"Are you hungry sir? I can bring you some snacks."

"No thank you, I'll wait until breakfast."

"Understood. I'll call you when it's time for breakfast."

"Got it."

I went upstairs and laid on my bed. I pulled out my phone from my bags.

*sniff* *sniff*
"you've served me well. But I still have no idea how I'm going to fix you or even use you in this world."

My Nalaxy S8 stuck with me since forever. It gave me trouble time to time, but it was my companion that kept me less depressed in time of trouble.

I put it back in the big bag safely.

I would love to read some manga right NaW. But unfortunately, I ain't got non of that here.

Fockin ey. I wanna watch animus and play games. I wanna cry.

The time went as slow as possible to maximize on my depression.

"Mr. Kim, the breakfast is ready."

"Ok, I'll be out."

William woke Eri up also.

After the usual routine, Eri and I got back to Deric's office.

"We here~"

"Oh, give me a second."

We waited for about 15 minutes.

"Sorry for the long wait, something came up. Let's go."

"What happened?"

"Related to your ridiculous performance yesterday."

"Oh, hehe."

We took the same route as yesterday and went back to the Arena.

"Gook luck man."

Eri added her word of encouragement too,

"Just don't kill anybody by accident."

"Who do you think I am?"

"A monster."

"WRONG, the answer is a Filthy Weeb."

"What the hell are you blabbing out this time?"

"Don't worry about it."

"Anyways, I'll get going, buwai~"

There was a different person at the front door this time. He looked at me and just let me through.

I grabbed my bracelet and went on my way. The waiting lobby felt pretty empty. None of my amigos were there yet. I fidgeted around and in a couple of minutes, the rest of the party arrived.

We exchanged a couple of chatters and the instructors entered. He explained what's next and led us to the arena.

"I heard you'll get matched up with someone equal to your rank." - Florence

"Then who's going up against Seo-jun?" - Jessica

"Welp, Mr. Instructor over there told us that the referees will be calling our names. So we just have to wait." - John.

The instructor stopped in the middle of the arena and told us to wait there.

Another damn instructor came and gave us more instructions.

"Now before starting your battle, you have to activate your bracelet. You can activate it by pressing the button on the bottom. Once you do, a magic spell will be casted on you automatically which protects you from one fatal attack. Once you do take a lethal blow, the bracelet will break. The one who breaks the opponent's first wins."

Everyone was thrilled. I was more curious about how the bracelet can protect you from a fatal attack.

There were many theories I came up with right there on the spot, but my name was called first.

"Seo-jun Kim, forward. Due to your strength difference with the others, we've decided to call a hero class adventurer to duel with you."

Whhhhyyyyy thoughhhh.

Everyone went wild with a question, who?

A dark-haired dude showed himself. He was wearing some fancy but not flashy clothing with two swords on his back.

The crowd went crazy. Even my friends back there was fan-boy/girling all over him.

"Hm, so you're the one in the rumor that's is going around."

"Yeah, apparently I am."

"Welp, let's see if that's all true or not."

The referee yelled with a loud voice.

"Ready!"

We both activated the bracelets.

A magic circle appeared and bright particles covered our bodies for a second.

We drew our swords. He took out two swords from his back.

What the hell, are you a Kirito or something?

"And Start!"

The match, me versus the famous hero I have no idea who he is, started.
