Prologue Part 1

"Asher Hanji, kill the devil and we'll grant to you one wish."

These words are written on my left arm...But why?

Where am I? How did I get here?

The sudden turn of events confused me as I sat in grass, surrounded by trees.

Trees, the trees that surrounded me were all different shapes and sizes. Some were tall, others were short, some had long branches others short branches. All the trees had leaves ready to jump to the ground.

I can hear birds singing in the background as the wind whistles through the leaves of the trees. I feel the coolness of the ground.

I can hear the roaring of a river in the distance as I look in the direction that I hear the noise and see raging water flowing in the river. The river looked about 400 meters from where I'm sitting but, to me it seemed closer like I had a connection to it... But how did I get here?

I'm in a place I've never been, with strange words written on my arm.

A slight breeze flowed through the forest...

... As I thought about what happened moments ago.

I was at home debating on weather to play video games or watch anime, which wasn't rare for me because I've been playing games and watching anime since I was thirteen.

After I got done watching anime for the day, I decided to play a new game I had found in the game store, which was rare because I usually buy my games online because I don't like leaving my apartment. But on this day, I was in town buying my groceries, when I saw a new game store that was just built and I decided to check it out since I was already in town.

I got into the store and noticed there was a pretty clerk...I decided to buy a game, to try and get a chance to talk to her but I'm sure it will get no where since I'm terrible with women.

The game I picked was titled: The Hero of Earth 2, I picked this game because I had played almost every game there is but, since I never saw this game before, it made me curious as to what it was. The game didn't have a description but, that just made me even more curious. I was lucky because I ended up getting it for free because the pretty store clerk told me it wasn't their game.

I was extremely curious now...This could only mean one of two things, One: The game is awesome or Two: The game is trash.

I rushed home to play it, I inserted the disk into my computer and waited eagerly for it to load. It was loaded and words started to simultaneously  appear, the words said:"Do you wish to become the Hero of Earth 2? If you do click yes, if you don't please refrain from clicking yes because you'll regret it." I thought about it for a second, then I clicked yes, as I clicked yes everything went black and I woke up here.

Mmm... If my anime knowledge isn't treaking me then I've been teleported to a parallel world...Maybe.

I looked at my left arm again and more words were appearing.

"You have now been teleported to an Alternate World...

That the site of this, I felt the breeze stop, as if it was just a stocked as I was...But I'm sure my shock was different.

Wow an Alternate world. This is Great...Wait, I don't know anyone hear!

I frantically looked around and didn't see anyone but I noticed more words on my arm.

...if you have any questions for the next three minutes please ask me."

Who was I supposed to ask, my arm... I didn't have anyone else to ask so I put away any logical thinking and started asking my arm questions as I leaned against a tree.

"Why am I here?"

Words starting forming on my arm.

Because you clicked yes and by clicking yes you agreed to defeat the devil.

How bold of you to assume that...Wait did it just say devil...I wish I didn't click yes...Wait maybe my arm writing meant to say demon, yeah that's what it meant to say...I hope.

"Why me?"

I said with fear as the previous words where erased and new words appeared.

You was chosen by the gods for this mission.

Gods actually exist...Wait, didn't I pick this game and not some god.

At this point I don't care, I just want to go home. Maybe if I beat this devil I can wish to go home.

"What do I do? I have no idea where I'm at?"

This was the most important question to me. I had always seen in anime a person being teleported to an Alternate World but they always had a guide that tells them where and how to get there and all I have is words on my arm... I wish I had anything besides this writing arm!

Make your way to Kadesh, enter the guild, get a card to know your level and make a squad.

The writing sounds as if I know what it's talking about. WHAT THE HELL IS A KADESH!..Wait a card to know my level,what kind of world is this?

If Kadesh is a town, how do I get there...This arm is useless!!!

I hope it's been three minutes already because this arm is horrible at explaining things.

"What do I do after that?"

Kadesh is a town only four miles to the west of here. I won't answer any more questions, I tired of writing so I'll be resting now.

Huh...I was shocked, a writing arm could get tired I thought spirts couldn't get tired...Wait did it just read my mind!

Reality finally hit me as I thought about what had just happened. I was teleported to an Alternate World, I left all my luxurious life and for what to be a hero! I should of just stayed home that day! But I can't help that now, I'll do my best and kill the demon so I can go back home. I made up my mind as to what I was going to do.

Whatever it takes.

I got up and started walking to the west or what I thought was west which happened to be in the direction of the river.

"Why do I have a damn talking arm!" I yelled to myself as I hit my arm against a passing tree sending pain throughout my arm.
