The Forsaken Hero

I closed my eyes and sighed, letting the needle slip through my fingers and clatter to the alley floor. It wasn’t like anyone would miss me. There was always someone else to beat or rape. The nothingness was a relief. At least now I have peace. Only...since when did 'nothingness' have so many gods? As one of ten heroes chosen by the Divine, I was sent to another world to fend off a demon invasion. But, the gods aren’t all helpful, and treat this as a game. Waking up in the magical world of Enusia, I found myself cursed and alone, clapped in chains and despised. This world was worse, far worse than the playground I so naively left behind, filled with betrayal, pain, and death. I've heard that the brightest lights cast the longest shadows. Perhaps, in this life, I can find if that's true. I'm tired of living in the dark. It's time to find the light. Discord: https://discord.gg/PX3xqJdZMY

A/N: We finally got the novel a rating! Thank you to everyone who left a review. Enjoy the extra release!

As the sun eased into the western mountains, I sighed and settled back on my hands, legs tucked away to my side. The strength given me by Life's Grace had finally begun to fade, and our efforts throughout the day left me feeling slow and lethargic, but a profound sense of satisfaction filled me. R'lissea looked similarly exhausted, but a small, satisfied smile showed she felt the same.

"What are you going to call it?" Elise asked curiously.

The golden-haired princess had stuck with us all day, and even though she couldn't help with the spell, continued to support us. She'd improved her own grasp of arrays and had somehow pushed her soul to the final threshold of the fifth level. Just a little more, and she could break through to sixth.

R'lissea shot me a questioning glance, but I shrugged.
