Summoned to be a hero

My name is Hoshimoto Nagaiki. A middle-aged man, who lives only to continue working without thinking about anything.

Even now I still don't have a girlfriend, well I don't have time for that.

But before I get time for that, I die.

When I open my eyes An old man holding a green tea cup is sitting right in front of me.

And in front of me is a round table and green tea on it.

"I'm sorry" was the first he said when I realized.

"For what? Who are you anyway? Why am I here?" I'm so confused right now, my mind can't digest what is happening right now.

This old man with a long beard and all white clothes lowered his head.

"Once again I'm sorry" the old man said again, I was getting dizzy and confused.

"Okay, but if you may know what happened? Didn't I just die?" I started asking about the situation.

"I am a god, and in fact you are already dead and it's my fault, I blew the candle of your life wrong because I thought you were an old man because you saw your name" You should retire to be a god!.

"Okay I understand the situation, but what will happen to me? Am I going to be put into hell or heaven? or can I be resurrected?" Damn I shouldn't have asked that.

"Yes, you can be resurrected, but you can no longer live on earth. I will send you to a different world. The world you usually call a fantasy world, and by chance in that world there is a kingdom that is trying to summon heroes.

" i didn't understand what he was saying.

"So the point is I will be sent to a different world? Well, I accept it, there is no reason for me to refuse" Fantasy world huh? I've read it in a novel.

"For someone who is dead you are quite calm, and you have a good name Hoshimoto Naigaki-kun Hoshimoto which means the original bridge, and Naigaki which means long life.

That means your name has a meaning which is about a bridge. old and those who cross it will have a long life. Therefore I will give some gifts for, and now I will send you to that world. see you later."

"What Gift? ehhh...what happen!" white light gnawed at my body and gradually began to disappear. And my consciousness also faded.

It's so dark, I can't see a thing. Suddenly I saw a light. I ran towards the light ....

"....." My eyes are fully open, I see my hands then I look around me.

on the right and left I saw people wearing armor lined up neatly carrying spears.

In front of me was a group of people, judging by the clothes I could conclude they were the royal family, especially the man who wore the crown, he must be the king.

"Welcome hero, you must be confused why you are here" Hooh? I think the king in front of me is quite wise.

Why do I say wisely? seen from speaking politely with me, even though he is a king.

The fantasy novel that I have read, the one who summoned the hero did not have the attitude of this king in front of me.

He tends to force the hero more to fight the demon king.

As for this King in front of me, he understands how the situation is, and he can't refuse the will of the hero and tends to be more concerned with the will of the hero, why?

the first to summon a hero, it takes 20 high-ranking sorcerers who must be willing to sacrifice their lives to summon the hero, and the second hero is irreplaceable.

For example, if a king dies, the eldest child of the king will inherit the throne, and if the eldest son dies, the second son will inherit. If no one can inherit the throne of the king (All his family are dead) then the person who is related by blood to the royal family will be the successor.

As for a hero, if he dies nothing can replace him, unless you want to lose 20 high ranking mages which is a valuable asset.

"No, I know why I'm here, I was summoned to be a hero to defeat the demon king and save the world is that correct?" I don't like to beat around the bush.

The atmosphere was silent for a moment, and continued with the king's words.

"As expected of a hero, it seems like you are not a long-winded person, then what if you take a break first?" Not only wise, he can also judge someone.

"Okay" I want to know what gift that god gave me.

When I opened my eyes in the throne room earlier. Suddenly I have 2 different memories. My first memory is the memory of a part-time worker who devoted himself to work and died.

And the second memory, of a man who had reached the top. In both magic and martial arts. This man has knowledge of all things in this world.

I see, the reward I got is the memory of a person who has reached the pinnacle, a person of knowledge.

And second gift. This body, why? thanks to this second memory I know that this body is the second prize.

The mana I feel in this body is very abundant, according to my second memory knowledge, the beings who possess the most mana are Demon Kings, Heroes, Dragons and Sages.

But the number of which is in my body doesn't make sense. It's like 5x the Demon Lord's mana.

I have decided, tomorrow I will go to the demon king's place. Tomorrow at dawn I'm leaving. If I was here I would have been asked to practice and it would take a long time. We don't know which city will be destroyed while I train. So the sooner the better.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

*Dawn has arrived

Now I am 5 KM from the kingdom. Before I left, I left a letter in my room containing. the contents of the letter are.

"I will go to defeat the demon king, no need to worry about me, and also no need to look for me, when my task of defeating the demon king is over I will not return.

When the eye of the day rises tomorrow, gather the whole population, tell them that the hero defeated the demon king but he died for some reason, thinking that reason is your job

"So he's gone, huh?" said the king who had just read the letter his daughter found on Naikagi's bed.

"He hasn't even given his name ..." said the princess.

"He's different from the predecessor hero, he's a very unpredictable person, I hope to meet him one day. Okay, I think we'll fake his death tomorrow. Maybe that's what he wants." Said the king who looked out of the window.

They should have found the letter by now.

There you have it, the Demon King's castle is in sight. Like I said I don't like being verbose, I'll just break through from the front.

Look! Someone came like lightning! "Said the demon guarding the entrance of the Demon King's castle.

"Ring the Bel-" before the demon guardian could finish his words, his head flew off.

Thousands of demons surrounded Nagaiki. upon entering the grounds of the Demon King's castle.

"Level 8 Magic: Lightning Dragon's Roar!" The clouds converged right above the naigki and formed a circle. A dragon made of lightning came at lightning speed and leveled thousands of troops in an instant.

And finally, Naigaki arrived at the throne room of the demon king.
