RE: The Legend of [SATOU] / Emergence of the Hero, Prologue/Genesis
By: Boringbone
Summary: What If Kazuma Chose A Power Instead Of The Useless Aqua? Will He Finally Show His True Potential? Kazuma/Harem Except For Aqua I Hate Her. Might Be OOC. There Are Some OCs And SI.
Chapter 1: Awakening of the Child of Destiny
Kazuma opened his eyes. [What happened?] a/n: the [ ] bubbles indicate Kazuma's internal monologue.
The last thing he saw was a truck that was about to hit a girl. Kazuma instinctively dove for the girl and saved her from getting run over by the truck. [Did I die?]
"Ah...lost child…I am sorry to say...but you had died in that accident…"
Kazuma turned to the voice and gasped. He saw a beautiful girl. She had silver hair and wore a nun clothes.
[She is very beautiful]
"Where am I...and who are you," Kazuma asked this beautiful girl.
"My name is Eris," the silver haired girl said. "And this place is my realm."
"Is this heaven?" he asked.
She chuckled. {the way he's asking questions is very cute} a/n: { } indicate Eris's thoughts.
"Not yet...you can choose to go to heaven...or…"
She gives him the description of the RPG-like world. a/n: you've all seen the anime so you get this part already.
"I see...this world...is in trouble," Kazuma said.
Kazuma is a kind-hearted boy. That is why he saved the girl who was about to be hit by the truck without fear.
He wants to save this world from the Devil King.
Eris mentioned that he can get a wish if he defeats the Devil King but he doesn't care about that at all.
[...All I want to do...is help other people…]
This is what Kazuma had resolved to do ever since he was younger...ever since that incident.
{He looks so...determined...perhaps he can…?}
"Every prospective hero is given a choice to bring any one item with them," Eris said. "You can also be reincarnated with a talent or skill."
Eris presented Kazuma with papers that described various items and powers.
From Kazuma's gamer knowledge, they all seemed very powerful.
[The items are generally more powerful...but they are still physical items. I might lose them or get them stolen away from me. I should choose an ability instead. And if I'm going to a fantasy world, I definitely have to try some magic…]
With this in mind, Kazuma pointed to an ability.
"I want this, Eris-sama."
Eris looked down at his choice. "I see...that is a great choice, Satou-san."
Kazuma smiled at Eris. "Please, just call me Kazuma."
Eris blushed. "O-Okay, Kazuma…"
{Why am I...feeling this way…}
The power Kazuma chose was Greater Mana Pool.
It allowed him to have almost infinite amounts of mana.
Eris then told Kazuma about how he will be given knowledge of the fantasy world's language. She even gave him starter equipment and some gold, as well as some advice and directions to where the guild was.
"Thank you, Eris-sama."
"No problem...but, Kazuma?"
"Yes, Eris-sama?"
Eris bent over and winked at Kazuma.
"If I have to call you Kazuma...then just call me Eris, OK?"
Kazuma blushed. "Yes…"
{She is very beautiful...ah, no, but I shouldn't stare at her! She'll think I'm a pervert!}
But little did Kazuma know that Eris didn't mind if he stared at her…
"Now, Kazuma! Go forth into this world! I have faith that you, out of all the prospective heroes, can defeat the Devil King!"
"Why do you have faith in me, Eris-sama...I mean, Eris…"
Eris blushed at being called by her first name without honorifics.
"I saw what you did. You are very brave, saving that girl like that, Kazuma…"
"I only did what was right. If anyone...especially a girl…was in trouble, I will save them…"
{He's so brave…}
Eris blushed again, seeing this brave side of Kazuma.
"By the way...what happened to that girl I saved?"
"She is fine and healthy. Everyone had heard of your great deed and there will be 1,000 people attending your memorial."
Kazuma almost cried. "...Is that true? No one cared about me when I was alive…"
Eris felt compassion for Kazuma. And without thinking, she ran up to embrace him.
"Sadly...there are people whose lives are forever immortalized after their demise, despite never once receiving the most common consideration as they are alive. We call these people heroes…"
Kazuma's heart went 'doki, doki, doki' a/n: heart sounds in Japanese when Eris hugged him.
{Ah! What am I doing!}
Eris separated herself. "Excuse me for my rudeness, Kazuma…"
She blushed.
Kazuma also blushed and rubbed the back of his head. "Ah. No...I don't mind. N-Not that I mean anything by that!
[She's so beautiful that I'm panicking...]
"Well then, I've stalled you long enough. Kazuma...I wish you luck...and I give you...a blessing…"
Eris put her hands together as if in prayer.
[Ah...Eris really is beautiful. I hope I can meet her again]
As Kazuma thought this, a light surrounded him and he was teleported.
Little did he know, Eris was also having the same thoughts.
{Ah! What am I thinking?! I wish...I can meet him again…}

[Is this...a parallel world?]
Kazuma looked around.
It looked normal enough.
He didn't see any pointy eared people.
He looked at the sky.
There were no dragons or griffons flying around.
But he saw that the people were strangely dressed and he looked down at himself and he saw that he was wearing the starting gear Eris gave him. a/n: just what he wears in the show and she also gave him a short sword and bow and arrows
After calming down after being reincarnated into a parallel world, Kazuma soon followed the directions Eris gave him to the adventurers guild.
At the adventurer's guild…
Kazuma went inside the adventurer's guild.
As he was wearing basic gear, no one seemed to pay him any mind.
He followed Eris's instructions and went up to the reception area.
"Hello! Welcome to Axel's Adventurer's guild! How can I help you?"
Kazuma gave the receptionist lady some Eris and asked to be registered as an adventurer.
"Certainly! Please place your hand on this item. We will determine which class is suited for you!"
Kazuma did as he was told.
As soon as the item was done scanning him, the lady pulled out a card and looked at it.
"...It seems that you have average stats across the board. Well, aside from decently high intelligence and extremely high luck. I recommend that you choose to be a merchant instead of an adventurer."
Kazuma was about to argue, but a voice interrupted him from behind.
"Che! You looked like a fellow Japanese so I was wondering if you were tough. How disappointing."
Kazuma looked behind him and saw a handsome guy in full armor. And he had a strong looking sword sheathed by his side.
He also had two girls on each side of him. They were rubbing their breasts on his arms and looking at Kazuma pitifully.
"You tell him Mitsurugi! This guy is nowhere near as cool as you!"
"Hmph! You're way cooler than anyone, Mitsurugi."
They all laughed.
[It's a fellow Japanese that was reincarnated here, huh? I didn't expect to meet one so soon. Well, there's no point fighting so I'll just ignore them]
"Tch! Ignoring me, huh? You're just a coward!"
Mitsurugi and his girls laughed once more and then left the guild.
"I'm sorry about that, Satou-san. That was Mitsurugi-sama, the town's ace adventurer. He is quickly rising up the ranks. Some say that he might be able to defeat the Devil King!"
[I see. There's a lot of people trying their best to defeat the Devil King. I should do my part, too]
Kazuma is kind hearted. He doesn't care about the glory of defeating the Devil King like Mitsurugi does. He just wants to do his part to keep the world safe.
"Then, please give me the Adventurer class," Kazuma said.
"O-Ok…"
As the receptionist lady gave Kazuma his card, he turned and was about to move.
But...he bumped into someone.
"S-Sorry!" Kazuma said. He ran over to help the person up. "Are you OK?"
Kazuma saw that it was a girl, and a small girl, too. He felt guilty for knocking such a fragile girl over.
The girl was wearing clothes that made her look like a witch. [A magic user?]
She had brown hair and she was wearing an eyepatch and the eye that wasn't covered by an eyepatch was actually red colored.
Kazuma looked at it. [What beautiful and unique eyes]
"Uuu~ Thank you for helping me up."
The girl stood up and patted down her clothes.
Kazuma saw her fully now.
[She's very cute…]
The girl then suddenly did a pose!
"I am Megumin! Wielder of Explosion Magic! The Number One Genius of the Crimson Demon clan! Fear my...wrath...and...ugh…"
Her stomach rumbled and she fell down.
"A-Are you OK?!"
Kazuma rushed over to help her.
Little did he know, that this meeting will change his life…
Forever.

Chapter END
A/N: Hey guys! So I just randomly thought that I would write this fanfiction! It's my first fic so please don't judge me too hard, OK? So, what did you think? I replaced Aqua with Eris in that first scene because I really hate Aqua! She's so dumb and useless and stops Kazuma from being powerful. I like her design though because I like girls with different colored hair that is not like real life girls, who have boring hair. But, aside from her appearance, I was infuriated when there was no romantic development between her and Kazuma even though she is the female lead. So, like I said, this will be a harem. Every girl will get their chance with Kazuma. And I know that Kazuma might be a bit OOC but there's a good reason for that. There is something that happened to his past that changed the normal Kazuma to what he is now. Quite frankly, I don't like the way Kazuma is in the show. I think that MCs (Short word for Main Character) should be kind and respectful to others. If you look at the best MCs of all time like Naruto from Naruto and Ichigo from Bleach, for example, you will see that they are kind and have respect for others. Another problem I have with the show is how there is no proper rival for Kazuma even though every great anime has the hero and a rival! I mean what makes Naruto so good is that he has Sasuke to challenge him, and how Sasuke is the opposite of Naruto's character. More examples of this is Goku and Vegeta. They are rivals who make each other stronger because they don't want to lose to each other. Eventually they will become friends but first they are rivals who fight one another but sometimes they team up and when they do...let's just say that it's epic. That's what I want to do with Kazuma and Mitsurugi. Mitsurugi will act mean at first and fight Kazuma but he will eventually realize that Kazuma is not that bad a guy and they will become friends later on. So in terms of the shipping, my favorite is of course Kazumin but I also ship Kazuma with all the female characters except Aqua. My second favorite ship is Kazuma x Eris, my third is Kazuma x Chris, and I guess Kazuma x Darkness is OK, but I'm not crazy about it because I don't like how Darkness, who is a girl, is taller and stronger than Kazuma, who is a boy. I will try to upload once a week but I have a busy schedule. Quite frankly, my high school life is a mess. Ugh! Between homework and relationship drama I just can't deal with it. They say that high school is the best years of your life...but they say a lot of things. Doesn't mean that you have to believe them. So yeah I will try to write, but PLEASE don't message me about uploading faster. That will NOT make me upload faster, that will just pressure me. And while we are on that topic, if you offer anything outside of constructive criticism in the reviews guess what? You're blocked. I won't even think about it. Don't think that I will hesitate. You're blocked. Forever. Life is too short to deal with negativity. Our country is already so screwed up with HIM as the president, I don't need any more hate and negativity in my life. Fanfiction is my safe space so don't you DARE ruin it for me. Anyways guys thank you for reading! Can we reach...five reviews by the next time I upload? And make sure to 'Follow' the story so you'll get updates of future releases! xoxo...Boring Bone
