Mevilas grunted. He didn’t like being ordered around. Couldn’t she ask politely for once? Nevertheless, the Summoned needed an explanation.

“Very well. Listen, humans! Aedalon, the world we are sending you to, is in need of help. We gods cannot go, for if we go there, our mana would be too much for the world to stand. So the humans summon heroes from other worlds. They get there and eliminate the threat, establishing peace. Sadly, humans don’t learn their lesson and get into trouble again.” He sighed. “So new wars spread once again, and the cycle restarts. However, after the mission, heroes go back to their world, a split second after they left. These heroes are also called the Summoned. In your case, though, we have a little problem. The human who summoned you couldn’t control three different circles. The circles spiraled out of control, killing you in the process. Because of this, you will not be able to return to your world after your mission.”7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4SN2ORwrA

Kaede, who had been listening quietly and patiently, exploded.

​​​​​​​“Kaede!” Aika said with such authority, so unlike her, that Kaede was speechless, along with the others. “They are gods,” she continued, “and you cannot speak like that!”7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3IKKBDgmV

​​​​​​​ A quiet, steady voice arose. Everyone turned to look at Hakuto. 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOevlzt2Rhf

”Hakuto...” breathed Kaede. “Fine,” he said, louder this time, still sulking.7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtogjznu5a

”Because this is our fault, however,” continued Malias, “we give you certain privileges. You will be reborn into Aedalon. You will determine all the conditions of your rebirth.”

​​​​​​​”Really?” breathed Aiko, full of hope.7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTRsvK5xNH

“Really.” replied Koron.
