(Volume 1. Mortal World) Ch.1 - Prologue

Xiang Chen comes from Earth, he was an orphan since the age of 12. Well, at such a young age, Xiang Chen had to lose his parents and live alone, forced to live independently by circumstances.

What Xiang Chen could do at that time was just keep fighting for life. He is trying to find a part-time job even though it is difficult to find one because he is still too young.

Moreover, he has to go to school, study, and work. These three things sometimes make Xiang Chen depressed and stressed.

Luckily the fighting spirit in Xiang Chen's heart was still burning. He wants to fulfill his dream of becoming a teacher.

When Xiang Chen was 13 years old, suddenly a magic circle appeared under his feet and forcibly sucked him into another world, another world where magic and swords prevailed.

There Xiang Chen was assigned to kill the demon king if he wanted to return to his world. He had no other choice and ended up training hard, becoming strong to complete his task.

Xiang Chen turns out to have high talent, he can master a lot of magic, martial arts, especially swords and even mastering how to concoct elixirs and medicines.

Xiang Chen is also very kind to make him deeply loved by the people of that other world. He helped wholeheartedly and selflessly.

But still, Xiang Chen is not a saint, he has his vices.

After 7 years, Xiang Chen has finally completed his task and now he will be sent back to his world, namely Earth.

To be honest Xiang Chen misses his world quite a bit even though he doesn't have anyone there anymore. He has no family, nor does he have any friends.

Meanwhile, in this world, he has many friends, whether they consider themselves friends to the point where only friends who want to take advantage of them exist.

It's just that according to Xiang Chen, here is not his place, so he should have returned to his original world.

***

Currently, in a large church, in a special room, dozens of figures can be seen in the room.

party friends, 5 more elite magicians of the kingdom, and lastly Xiang Chen himself.

Inside that room was the place where Xiang Chen was previously summoned to this world, the place where he had first set foot in this world.

Seen in the middle of the room is a unique magic circle with 5 corners. At the end of each corner, there are circles where 1 kingdom's elite magician stands in each circle.

“Xiang Chen, have a nice trip. I hope you are well in your future world.”

“You have helped us a lot, saved our lives, and even are willing to risk your life for us. If I had met you earlier, I would have married you ."

“ Hey Lucia, don't say that. You must remember you are my wife!"

" Hey, I'm kidding. I just miss wanting to see my husband's jealous face.”

"Xiang Chen, actually we are still having a hard time accepting your departure, I can only hope that you are fine there ."

party mates said their parting words. Some even shed tears when they saw them parting with a good friend who was considered their brother.

Instead of giving a sincere smile in this farewell, Chen smiled wryly.

“Humph, you all have partners, while I don't! Huh, you guys always make me jealous.”

“ Haha, it's your fault, Xiang Chen. Many women liked you but you didn't take any of them. They must be crying in the corner right now to hear about your departure,” Prince Felix just laughed at Xiang Chen.

Behind Felix was a little girl hiding, only turning half her head to look at Chen, looking shy and cute.

"Unfortunately my sister is still 7 years old, if only she was 15 years old I would set her up with you ." Felix stroked his younger brother's head who now hid his entire face so Xiang Chen couldn't see it.

"I already consider Liana as my sister, how could I marry her," Chen shrugged his shoulders, sighed, and smiled sincerely.

“Your Majesty the King, Your Majesty the Queen, thank you for taking good care of me all this time. You are like a mother and father figure to me in this world!”

“We are the ones who should be thanking Chen. If it weren't for you, this world would surely have been destroyed at the Demon King's hands,” the King smiled, trying to hold back his tears to maintain his dignity as a king.

He also regarded Xiang Chen as his son. Hearing Chen say that just now moved him.

While the King was still holding back tears, the Queen immediately hugged Chen tightly for a few moments before releasing him.

“Take care of yourself there Chen, we will always pray for you !”

“ Just friend Queen, with my current strength, no one on earth can harm me,” Chen turned towards the archbishop who was a middle-aged man, “archbishop, you have taught me so much magic, thank you.”

" Haha, I didn't teach you many things. I only explained a little and you immediately understood quickly and even made me learn many things from your brilliant ideas !”

"I don't think there's anything else that needs to be said, so I'll be going first!" Chen stood in the middle of the magic circle.

five elite magicians immediately activated a magic circle, they all put out their full concentration.

This cross-world magic circle requires high focus from those who activate it because it requires so much magical energy.

If the focus or concentration is disturbed even a little then no one will know what happened.

The magic circle started giving off a light that got brighter with time until Xiang Chen was no longer visible because of the bright light.

Just before the magic circle took effect, an ant that had come from nowhere crawled on the leg of one of the elite magicians and bit his leg.

The mage's concentration was disrupted in an instant and the magic circle activated, teleporting Xiang Chen back to his world… perhaps.

The witch whose leg had been bitten earlier realized that she had made a mistake, now she could only freeze in cold sweat.

Did the hero get sent back to his world? I lost my concentration for a moment, is that okay?

The witch can only hope that Xiang Chen will be fine without daring to report what he did wrong.

Because if the others found out then he would be killed on the spot for putting the hero that everyone loved in an unknown state right now.
