Akashi slowly opened his eyes with blurry consciousness as he bear witness to a grand sight in front of him.
Infinite number of clouds stretch out beyond horizons as a blinding ball of light soaked his eyes of warm light without the slightest bit of pain.
"Where..."
Just as Akashi began to appreciate the grand sight before him he heard a voice leak out beside him.
There he saw Hayate Daichi with shaken eyes as he mutter those words. Shouko Ryunosuke with his eyes wide open and slacked jaws continued Daichi's words.
"... are we?"
They stood atop the enormous clouds that hovered below them. Sugo Shin slowly stood up and began to tap the cloud underneath his feet with a not-so-calm expression and his gaze turned towards the blinding light.
"A cloud with a density solid enough to be as hard as steel and capable of defying the laws of gravity. What kind of phenomenon is this?!"
"A light capable of displaying ultraviolet properties without harming one's eyes. Just what is happening!"
Sugo Shin muttered under his breath and could help but let out a low exclamation but he still maintained his calm.
Tsukasa with the help of Ryunosuke's hand slowly stood up and stared waringly towards the bright light.
"I don't know but be careful. We're not the only ones here."
Clap~ clap~
A clapping sound sound suddenly resounded next to their ear and they tensed up. Tsukasa's body jolted and he took a fighting stance as he turned his gaze behind him.
{Quite an unexpected talent for a human. To be born with great sense of survival instincts and intuition. It makes me regretful of taking an apostle.}
A voice that seemingly transmitted next to their ear resounded. It was a majestic and tyrannical tone that dominated their souls.
A young man with tied up flowing hair that reached towards his waist wearing an eastern robe slowly appeared out of nowhere in front of them.
Following that, a giant ball of blazing fire and a huge drop of clear water, rose up in the sky followed by a big compression of dense air and an enormous gigantic boulder gently rose in the air and they began to transform.
Adopting human like figures, of either a male or female.
Thunder and lightning rumbled and ice and snow followed suit as two strange presence began to descend down the ground.
Space began to rupture and time seem to slow as a giant ruby and pearl walked out from the cracks of space.
A muscular man with a naked top and a beautiful woman with otherworldly charm slowly walked out behind the eastern robed man.
"Wait a minute! Isn't the development to fast? Can we slow down for a sec?!" Tsukasa complained as he struggled to speak under the pressure and his knees began to cave in.
"Shut up, will you grow-" while Shin attempt to reprimand Tsukasa, the bright light above them began to glow brightly as it took the form of a beautiful woman that even Shin froze up.
As the figure of the woman began to grow distinct, a ray of light shot down high above and the melodious hymns echoed in the surroundings.
A group of men and women with a pair of white-feathered wings descend and revolved in circles followed by human- like figure of four pairs of white-feathered wings that surrounded the entire place.
As the hymns grew stronger the dazzling figure of light from before emitted a glow and seven six paired winged angels encircled her with a majesty.
An Archangel with a cube in his palm that rotates in a gentle manner and another Archangel with a book radiating a divine glow appeared beside the dazzling figure.
The light suddenly grew faint as the figure slowly opened it's eyes and the 5 Miracles experienced an idescribable aura as a great amount of pressure was exerted from all sides.
{Greetings humans of the Fate Origin world, Earth. I am Zarilia, The great Goddess of Life and Light.}
The 5 Miracles grew silent in bewilderment as they heard her words except for Akashi.
'She feels familar...'
Akashi drew his gaze towards the gentle eyes of the Goddess as she began to inspect them one by one. Her gaze stopped at Akashi and she seemed to be surprised but she quickly continued after.
{I apologize for the sudden events that happened in prior of us summoning you to our world. It might be sudden for me to ask of this as strangers but we need your help. Please save our world.}
Certainly the transitioning of the events we're too fast that no matter how compose you are, you're mind will inevidentally grew chaotic.
"I don't understand. What do you mean by that?" The student council president stepped up with a sweat in his face as he bravely asked a question.
"Wait a minute is this something like, an Isekai trope? Like you'll give us cheat like skills then ask us to save the world from the demon king? Then you'll go and fucking say were a threat to the world and Eliminate us-... Actually scratch the last one. Tee-hee~." Tsukasa said with a weird expression, trying to act cute in a sudden.
The Goddess faintly smiled and Tsukasa suddenly got chills in his back. The Goddess giggled softly as she spread her arms.
{I see so you're what earthlings call otaku. Certainly you can say that the procession of events is as what you have told but fiction differs from reality. Three. You're wrong about three things.}
The Goddess held up three of her dazzling white fingers and began to put down a finger.
{First, although we are sending you with privelages to said world, we won't give you abilities that will destroy the balance.}
{Second, The demon king in this world in is technically not evil. Like in some generic anime you have read, to borrow your words, he's just a badass demon king who wants to live in peace and of course that includes his underlings. You're enemies here are a bit different.}
{Lastly, We are not evil nor hypocrites as you suspect as to be. We gods purely wish to save the world and maintain it's balance. So don't get so worked up.}
Tsukasa could instinctively feel that her words were true so he couldn't help but smile awkwardly with a bead of sweat trickling down his face.
"I- I understand."
The Goddess then turned his head towards Shin and shaked his head in exasperation.
{I know that you're still pondering everything you saw with scientific notions but I suggest you not to. Even if you don't believe it, once you understand the concept of mana, which is devoid in your world, you'll understand.}
Shin weakly nodded and cleared his mind out. Shin accepted all that fact with an idiotic face yet his eyes could not hide his stubbornness as he shelved his thoughts for later use.
Akashi remained silent in the corner with unexpected composure. Some gods could not help but glance at him however it was merely for a moment and they turned their gazes towards the person beside Tsukasa who also remained silent for the whole time.
'Why is he so quiet?' Akashi thought that the unusually vibrant Ryunosuke grew silent and felt weird. Daichi had the same thought as him but chose to ignore it.
{There are choices that requires an extreme willpower to endure. However life is all about enduring anyway. Now I think I've spoke too much. Archangel Chief Metatron and Archangel Vice-Chief Sandalphon will take over from here.}
As she spoke those words, the Archangels with a mysterious rotating cube in his hand and a dazzling divine book in his chest respectively, came forward.
The archangel with the book, the one in the left spoke. His words carried a musical tone.
{Humans of Fate Origin world, the Divine beings of Heaven of Eden greets you. We summoned 5 of the most distinguishable people in your era with unmatched talent in order to help us overcome our ordeal.}
{We call upon thee! O chosen ones, In the name of God, we ask you thee, art thou willing to save our world?!}
The Archangel spoke with an intangible strength in his words that made them weak. And after that all sound was lost and silence ensued.
Akashi didn't speak a word and began to observe the reaction of others and nodded in himself internally as he see them stand solemnly.
Surely none of them would want to save the world. It was a world that has nothing to do with them. More so for free! Charity is nothing but a word from a fairytale story. Yet now his beliefs were shaken.
"I... Accept!!!" With an indescribable resolve in his voice, Daichi involuntarily kneeled and bowed his head.
As a son of the Prime minister and heir of Japan's leading business conglomerate, Hayate Daichi never bowed to anyone in his life, not even to his father.
However with a desire hidden in his heart, he bowed down, with a firm resolve.
After that the silent Sugo Shin also kneeled down. He spoke calmly in contrast to Daichi, "I accept."
" I dunno what you just said but their cool. I guess you're telling me to save the world huh? Quite a tough challenge." Tsukasa spoke while scratching his head.
'Finally someone who could understand the situation.' Akashi thought as he remained silent but his words next made Akashi raised his brows.
"Then I'll gladly accept! Huhu wait for me my Isekai world and Harem!! Hueheheheh huhuhu!!!" With a creepy expression, Tsukasa's hand began to twist and turn in a vulgar manner but he inevitably kneeled down as well.
Even the Archangel had his expression distorted as he heard the boisterous laughter of Tsukasa and turned his head towards Ryunosuke.
{I know that choosing an option is hard for someone like you who have relationships in that world but as the three of them have already chosen, you won't be able to refuse. Though we promise that at the end, if you desire we could bring you back to that world. You can be rest assured that the time frame in that world is irregular and we can send you back in the same moment you were summoned.}
Just like that Ryunosuke felt a weight off his shoulder and heaved a faint sigh as a beaming smile appeared in his face.
"I guess if you say it like that, I won't have to worry about anything."
Shouko Ryunosuke kneeled and bowed down his head but contrary to before, a trace of bewilderment surfaced in the archangel's face and Ryunosuke shouted.
"I also accept."
{Quite an interesting bunch. I guess we can now proceed to next step then.}
{Oh thy chosen ones, rise and-}
"Wait!"
Just as the Archangels tone began to rise, a hoarse and audible voice cut him off. With his eyes seemingly devoid of emotions that stared intently at the aAchangel, Kageyama Akashi made not only Archangel Sandalphon but all of Heaven silent.
"...I refuse."
