Prolog

—I, Shinomiya Riku.

Today, I rarely decide to go to school. Usually I prefer to skip classes and play games or read novels in the house.

But, because today there is an important test, I was forced to come to school.

"Haaahh, I'm still sleepy. I think this is the effect of staying up late for 3 days in a row. Let's finish this quickly and go straight home to sleep," I grumbled while walking in a daze towards my class.

What a hassle.

Why do you need school if you're already smart, school is just a troublesome place where you're forced to smile and laugh like a fool, and hang out with people you don't like.

There is no point in coming to school. Can't they make a better education system for a loner like me.

But, I also can't bother the people who have taken care of me more than this, so at least for exams I will come to school.

Alright, let's take the first position to silence the homeroom teacher who keeps nagging about the importance of going to school.

"Is my class here?" I asked who had not been to school in a long time, so I was a little confused about where my own class was located.

But, I think this... Maybe?

Well, even if I'm wrong, I just have to ask them where my class is.

Standing in front of the classroom door that I don't even know if it's my class or not, I took a deep breath, and then grabbed the doorknob with a nervous expression.

I'm a little curious about what their expressions will be if they see me suddenly coming to school for so long?

While thinking that, I opened the classroom door, and at that moment—

"Huh?!"

—A dazzling white light engulfed me.

***************

I don't know what happened.

"Ugh..."

My body feels heavy, my head also feels dizzy. As soon as I tried to get up and opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was an all-white place, without the slightest shadow.

Obviously, that's not the roof of the school, or the roof of the school medical room.

If I fainted I should be on a soft bed, but what's with the hard floor?

Why am I here?

Where exactly is it?

"Right now you're in the most isolated place in the whole world, so it's useless for you to think about where you are now, you're just wasting your time." As if having seen what I was thinking, someone answered my question.

"?!"

That surprised me, my eyebrows raised, and I spontaneously immediately looked for the source of the sound.

".... Who are you?" I asked, frowning.

There, I saw a beautiful woman like a goddess who was sitting on a magnificent sleeping chair. She had long, sparkling golden hair, sunken eyes with light blue irises that were as pure as the sky, and pure white skin without the slightest blemish.

You could say she is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in my life.

But, why is that?

I really don't feel that this woman is human. The atmosphere around her was filled with a strange pressure, which indirectly warned me not to fight it.

I stared in astonishment.

How could it not be, as soon as the woman stood up from her chair, suddenly the chair disappeared somewhere like it was swallowed up by the fog and she walked towards me casually as if nothing had happened.

Then, once she was in front of me, she brought hers face close to mine, so close I could feel the sound of hers breathing.

It made me a little nervous, because her face really looks really pretty when she's this close.

Aaah, she also has a nice scent.

While I was thinking about that with blushing cheeks, the woman then whispered to me in a gentle voice.

"Shinomiya Riku, you've been chosen as one of the heroes who will save the world… W-wait, calm down, why did you suddenly jump?! I-I know, I know you're happy, but you don't need to get so excited, you scared me!!"
