Chapter 2: Aleron's New Beginning? Hold Up...



*Darkness...*

'Eh? So this is the famous darkness that everyone experiences before reincarnation?'

'Cool.'

'I really can't feel my limbs.'

Aleron felt excited and shouted. "Yoohoo!"

But then he felt weird. 'I just heard my own voice.'

He felt even more weird as seconds passed. Some unfamiliar sensation crept on him before the darkness finally lifted its veil and light entered his eyes.

Aleron looked at the luxurious ceiling with gold-plated patterns and lights while his expression turned blank.

He could feel his heart, his eyes as they blinked, his breathing, and....

Aleron's right hand moved up and appeared before his eyes.

"I can move my limbs."

Just as he muttered, the brightness dimmed as he saw many people and uproar ensued.

"He awakened!"

"The savior finally opened his eyes!"

"Our Hero is here!"

Two knights in silver armor appeared to his sides before grabbing his hands and helping him stand up.

"I can move," Aleron muttered as he felt his legs and arms clearly, delight filling him. "Hero!"

A sound boomed in his ears as Aleron looked around the grand royal palace, with a middle- aged king and queen five meters on an elevated ground while a bunch of people in various attire stood in the surroundings.

'So I didn't reincarnate, but got transported with my body here?' Aleron raised his eyebrows.

"Dear Hero, would you please put your hand on this crystal tablet so we can see the divine blessing you have received from Goddess Elysia."

Aleron, in his pajamas and wearing a smile on his face, eagerly put his hand on the crystal tablet.

'I guess my new life begins already.'

The crystal tablet showed his status, but Aleron swiftly heard a series of gasps.

"Impossible!"

"T-This can't be true."

The princess with long wavy blond hair rushed forward and looked at the tablet with focus and somber expression while the entire throne hall turned silent.

"No talent in magic. Average physical stats. Divine Blessing can't be used due to not meeting requirement..." the Princess muttered while her eyes widened with disbelief.

"Knights!" the King shouted, his expression ugly.

"Capture him and prepare for divine source extraction!"

The two knights beside Aleron grabbed his arms while the other two arrived and grabbed his legs.

"W-What are you doing?! What do you mean by divine source extraction?!" Aleron shouted and struggled to get away, but he was powerless against their grip.

Aleron's heart turned cold as he felt something bad was going to happen to him.

"Knights," the court magician looked at four silver-armored knights and said, "Bury him in the garden under the Blood-Oak Tree. No one shall find his body."

The four silver-armored knights nodded while the mages left the stone chambers.

While the knights were unbinding Aleron, his eyes slowly opened, filled with weakness and

daze.

But in his mind was a strange thing that overlapped with his vision.

[Ultimate Gacha System]

-Level: 1

-Gacha Points: 13

|-Summoning Banners-

1. Lords of Arcane.

-> Summoning Ticket: 1

'W-what is this? Ultimate Gacha System?' Aleron thought, but his current weakness was

threatening to send him back into darkness again.

He was feeling death all over again, but it was more painful this time. It took all of his

willpower to remain conscious.

[Do you wish to summon?]

'Yes, summon!' Aleron answered, trying to hold on longer.

Aleron's eyelids closed as he couldn't keep them open while consciousness also got wobbly,

but his willpower and desire to live kept him awake long enough to change his fate.

'Lords of Arcane...use its ticket.'

The four silver-armored knights were carrying Aleron toward the door when they suddenly

felt a strange aura oozing out of him.

Startled, they dropped him on the floor. *Thud...*

"What's going on?"

But soon, four of them saw a magical whirlpool with dark green and dark violet waves manifesting over Aleron. Simply looking at this aura caused the silver-armored knights to

feel death.

"Who ar-"

*Thud...*

Aleron heard a few thuds around him as if people were falling and his eyes barely opened

again.

He could blurrily see a figure clad in a black robe, with a pair of black curved horns on the figure's head and dark green eyes looking at him.

"S-Save me," Aleron blurted out with all of his strength before his eyes closed again.

But this figure's voice still entered his ears.

"As you wish, my lord."
